SPECIAL SESSION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
MARCH 10, 1982
The Schertz City Council convened in Special Workshop Session, Wednesday,
March 105 1982 at 7:00 P.M. in the Conference Room of the Municipal Complex,
1400 Live Oak Road with the following members present: Mayor Jack M. Stomackin,
Sr., presiding; Richard L. Howe; Barbara Taylor; Jeff Duffield; Earl W. Sawyer,
and Jacqueline Lawler. Staff were Jimmy G. Gilmore, City Manager, and June G.
Krause, City Secretary.
#1 COMMUNICATION: Mr. Mike Lawler addressed the Council concerning
the need for an ordinance that would provide some
type of protection for SAFES in case another commercial ambulance service
comes into their area. Council discussed this at length agreeing that we
should bet sample ordinances from both TML and San Antonio. They were not
wanting to cut out another service entirely but perhaps a regulation that
SAFES would be dispatched to all emergencies but the citizens would still be
free to call an ambulance of their choice on a non-emergency basis.
#2 BUSINESS CLUB: Mr. Gilmore said he had met with the Business Club
to work out some of the preliminaries and they will
be at the regular meeting of the Council to renew their contract for the
Jubilee. He then asked Council if he could consider contracting for the
cleanup as his Parks men have not had a 4th of July holiday in years.
The other changes that are proposed in the contract are that the Business
Club agrees to end the function at midnight and that they agree to provide
the tables and chairs. Some questions the SBC had were: (1) the electrical
system at the pavilian needs changing and updating. This would cost approxi-
mately $4,000; but the change would not be restricted to the SBC use but all
would benefit from the electrical change. Mr. Gilmore agreed to bring some
cost figures for this to the next meeting. Mr. Duffield suggested adding
a paragraph stating that the SBC agrees to submit an expenditure and revenue
report on the function within 45 days from the 4th of July.
The Mayor called a recess at 7:33 P.M.

#3 GENERAL DISCUSSION: Mr. Gilmore advised that Mr. White had
contacted him saying at the time the water
line was put in at Garden Ridge Pottery, there was a verbal agreement
that when his sales tax reached at least $500 per month, the City would
forgive his water line note. None of the Councilmembers remenbered any
such agreement but staff were to check it out.
Mr. Gilmore referred to a letter from Bethel Stell Supply Inc. They have
42 acres they are breaking up into industrial tracts; and although they are
in Selma's city limits, Selma cannot furnish water to them so they want
water from Schertz or they will have to have a deeper well. If they pur-
chase from us~ it would require an interlocal agreement with Selma. Council
said they were open to proposals.
Mr. Gilmore called attention to a letter of appreciation from Wilson Mfg.
Co. for help given, saying they were to get back with us but have not as
of todate.
He reported that at present we have 7 police vehicles, with 2 of them not in
condition to be used for patrol cars. These are being stripped of lights etc.
and will be auctioned off. This will leave 5 cars and on some weekends,
we have three in use and at times we have 2 in for repairs at the same time.
He also reported that the cars obtained from the DPS are giving as good I .
service, maintenance wise, as the new ones bought.
Mr. Gilmore also reported that unless gasoline price go up, we will have
approximately $5800 to $7000 left over in this line item.
Mr. Duffield asked about the advantages of the accrual method on the financial
report. Mr. Gilmore said that our present computer would not handle that
very effectively.
