.JUNE 26, 1991
The Schert.z Ci t.y C'.otmci I convened in Special Workshop Session,
Wednesday, June 26, 1991 at. 7:00 p.m. in t.he Conference Roam of
t.he Mtmicipal Crni>lex, 1400 Schert.z Parkway, Schert.z, Texas. The
fo 11 owing members were presf?nt.: Mayor Ear I W. Sawyer; Hal
Baldwin; Barbara St.anhope; Mary Marsh and Ken Greenwald. Absent:
Joe Potempa. Staff prf?sent were Cit.y Manager Kerry SWeatt and
Cit.y Secret.ary Jtme Krause.
#1 HEARING OF RESIDENl'S: A. Mrs. Terelet.sky asked when
t.he budget Sf?ssion would st.art.. Mr. SWeat.t. said t.hey would be
start.ing in lat.e July or early A~~t..
B. Mr. Chuck Sharpe said it. had been a ntl'fi>er of years since t.he
project. went in out. at Deer Haven that created sane drainage
problems - probably about five Yf?~rs - and nothing has been done
since then. He said that sanething has to be done. It. is even
to the point now t.hat propert.y val Uf?S are being prot.est.ed because
of damage t.hat has been done t.o drainage. He urged Counci I t.o do
sanething soon.
Mr. SWeatt. informed. that. t.he City At.torney has met. on t.wo
occasions wit.h the at.t.orney of the engineer. He said he expects
any day a report. frcrn our att.orney.
C. Mr. Wi lltran asked if SAFES is noti fied when t.he low water
crossing is closed and opened?
Mr. SWeat.t. said that. normally t.he dispat.cher,
frcrn fire, police and SAFES, is not.ified and
before asking anyone t.o make a nm.
who handlf?s calls
t.hey annotmce that.
D. Mr. Leon Davis said he had a bad experience with a dirt. bike.
At Rich'oond and Gett.ysburg they are nmning up and down the
alley. The Police told him there was no ordinance spf?~king to
dirt bikf?s. He said it seems to him there should be an ordinance
on this, specifically excessive noise.
Mr. SWf?~tt advised that the officer could not initiate a
complaint tmlf?ss he registered it as excf?ssive noise or if the
person making the call will regist.er a complaint.
Mayor Sawyer St~gf?sted he give the complaint prOCf?SS a try.
#2 Appraisal District reprf?sentative t.o discuss btrlget and
other matters pertaining to the Appraisal District..
Mr. Chuck Sharpe advised that if Council would look back through
the records for the last few Yf?~rs, t.hey would find that the
Appraisal District has provided a certified tax roll so that the
t.aXf?S could be got.ten out on time. Also, over the last t.hree or
four Yf?~rs t.heir btldget. has bef:on reduced and they have cane in

tmder budget.. At. t.he same time, t.hey have upgraded t.heir
comput.er syst.em, and did some microfi lming of records and
improved t.heir operation and got. t.heir budget. down t.o a more
st.able document. easier to work wit.h. He said he felt t.hey have
t.he propert.y values at a litt.le closer to real market. value. He
said they were not 100%, yet. much bet.t.er t.han they were.
Mrs. Pat. Fox, Chief Appraiser, first expressed her appreciat.ion
to the Cound 1 for allowing t.hem t.o visit. She then discussed
their budget, which had been sent. t.o Cotmcil several weeks
previously. She said the tot.al budget was $615,939 and t.his
incl\ldes $7,500 amort.izat.ion of t.he addit.ion t.o t.heir btrilding.
Without. this figure the budget would be $608,439 and for 1991 it.
. was $634,793; for 1990 $647,000 and 1989 it. was $644,000 which
indicat.es it. is dropping.
Mrs. Fox said t.hat. in addition t.o adopting the new budget., she is
proposing t.hey adopt. a resnluHon to change the method of
calculating allocation t.o the jurisdiction. She advised t.hat. t.he
Property Tax Code mAndates that t.he levy for all propert.ies
wit.hin t.he Cmmt.y be calculat.ed according t.o a st.raight
percent.age levy met.hod. She said for those properties outside
the cotmt.y lines, the Code just says t.he Chief Appraiser must.
det.ennine the cost of appraising those properties. She said she
believes the straight percent.age method t.o be t.he best. method.
Mrs, Marsh said that in t.he past, we
difficulty of t.rying t.o work our budget. on
t.he Appraisal Dist.rict, only to get. half
allocat.ions change. Is t.here a way t.o do
change?
have always had t.he
t.he figure provided by
way through, and the
it. where it would not
Mrs. Fnx said what. happens is that when they calculate the
allocation to t.he jurisdicHon, t.hey use t.he previous ye~r's t.ax
levies. The re.ason you get another figure later is that t.hey
have to recalculate their figures when the jurisdiction.s have set
their t.ax rates.
Mr. Sweatt. t.ried to clear up the subject by saying Mrs. Fox is
talking about. our port.ion of t.he budget. and Mrs. Marsh was
talking about t.otal tax values that we btrild our budget on. Last.
year t.he initial figtlre we were t~ing dropped considerably when
we were well into t,he budget,.
Mrs. Fnx said we shmlld not have that. problem this year, however
they stj 11 have several lawsuits pending. She said Schertz had
about $4,500,000 in new improvement.s and we are running about.
$4;000,000 over nur 1990 appraiserl value. She said they are now
in the middle of t.he appeal process and when she compares apples
to apples Scherb~ will probably lose 1% t.o 1-1/2% - this does nnt
t.ake int.o consideration t.he new improvement.s.
254

'T'hey sent out. about. 34000 not.ices of appraised value. There were
two types of notices - the long form went to those whose value
increased more than $1,000. There were about 6,000 of those and
the remainder either decreasAd, remained t.he Sal1"le or had a value
tmder $1,000. Mrs. Fox said she knew t.hey had an equalization
probl F'ffi and this YE."..ar they hit the hot spots - the very high or
t.he very low. she said she felt. that. over the next twenty-four
month period the Dist.rict. would redo all land values wit.hin t.heir
jurisdiction. she ended by saying t.he appeal process is going
very well - this year t.hey had 44 people file to appear before
t.he Appraisal Review Board. She said t.hey are visiting with
about 300 people a week. she did not. expect. a suit problem as
they had in t.he past.
Mr. Sweatt. slmnarizAd by saying our total assessed value will be
approximately the same, exClltsive of the new propertiE."5 - will
dec:rease by about 1% to 1 -1/2% before the new properties are
added.
Mayor Sawyer thanked Mrs. Fox and Mr. Sharpe for giving Council
this briefing.
#3 HEALTH/LIFE INSURANCE: Consider and t.ake action on
awarding bid on the anployee's health/life insurance.
Mr. Sweatt. ca 11 ed attenti on to the 1'TIf"'lTIO he distributed that goes
into details after an intensive review of the bids received,
wherein he recomnends enrollTrl€nt of employeAs in the Pad fic('..are
880 Medical Plan. He related t.hat this is an HMO plan which he
bAlievAd provides the most benefits at. the least cost. He then
reiterat.Ad sane of the backgrolmd information, reminding Cotmcil
that. only tJ,ree companies had offered proposals, even t.hollgh over
fifteen providers were solicited. Sane would not. bid and others
offered bids nearly 28% over last year's cost.. Our present.
prm,; der - Blue Cross and Bl ue Shield - increased, their rate by
25% basAd on daims-Ioss/pn:mium-loss relations and we had 125 to
130% uH lizaUon, most of t.hem depAndent. claims. After looking
at all mlr options, he said we believe the proposal by
Padfic:C'..arA 880 represent.s the best. plan. paciticCare does not.
have a dAduct. i b 1 e but does have a co-payment and as any other HMO
prescribes specific providers wit.h wham the anployee or dependent.
is entitled to rec:eivA services. PadficC'..are has also offered us
a Well ness Program and we believe this quit.e significant. It.
also has; within the plan; sane benefits that. Blue Cross/Blue
Shield did not. offer, and that is vision care and also ltSeS the
same dent.a 1 program t.hat we had used tmder Blue Cross. The
prF'ffiium cost would be $106.76 or approximately 3% over what we
have been paying, and this includF>5 the dent.al plan. Also we
have been paying approximately $4 for 1 i fe insurance and lmder
thi s pI an t.hat. would be rAdllced to approximately $2.90 so the
overall premium for this insurance, including life, would be
$109.66 cnmparAd to $107. .12 c:urrently. When we were tmder G. I.e.
a c:ouple of years ago and they went under, our policy year
c:hanged to .1u1 y , because that is when we had t,o gAt coverage.
