(S.Gonzalez/L.Shrum) BACKGROUND The Schertz Parks and Recreation Department recently attended the Central Region Workshop and Maintenance Rodeo for the Texas Recreation and Park Society (TRAPS) and came back with five (5) awards! Our Park Maintenance team members Cole Moody and Larry May took 3rd place in the Truck & Trailer event and will advance to the State Maintenance Rodeo in Galveston in February.  Ian King took home 6th place in the Backhoe competition and will be an alternate for the state rodeo as well.  The department was honored to receive the Excellence in Maintenance Award for the Wendy Swan Memorial Park Splashpad Project.  An excerpt from the award submission: The Wendy Swan Memorial Park (WSMP) Pool, originally an HOA-owned pool, was designed for a limited capacity of 50 people, resulting in low demand and limited activities. When the pandemic hit in March 2020, capacity restrictions further hindered its use, with only 12 people allowed initially. The staff responsible for managing outdoor pools deemed it impractical to open the pool. City staff then explored converting this small residential pool into a splash pad, utilizing existing infrastructure as much as possible. This transformation would maintain the old pool's footprint, incorporate existing facilities, and remove the need for lifeguards, enabling an extended season from March to October. In February 2021, Winter Storm Uri damaged the pool house and restroom. Seizing the opportunity, staff integrated these extensive repairs into the splash pad project. This comprehensive initiative aims to provide continuous public access while ensuring full restroom accessibility. The splash pad officially opened in July of 2023. The department was also awarded the Photography Award for the various photographs we have utilized in our marketing efforts throughout the year.  Special thanks goes to Stacey Lovett, our contract photographer, who has helped capture the essence of our brand so well over the years. Finally, the department nominated Johnie McDow for "Individual of the Year" for his years of contribution to Buffalo Valley Youth Association, as well as his service on the Parks & Recreation Advisory Board since its inception in 2007. An excerpt from the award submission: Over more than two decades, Johnie McDow has dedicated himself to Parks and Recreation, first as a parent volunteer and eventually as president of the Buffalo Valley Youth Association (BVYA) for 18 years. Under his leadership, BVYA grew from a small sports organization serving 250 kids in three sports to a thriving institution with 2,800 participants in eight sports. Johnie played a crucial role in the development of the Schertz Ballpark, fostering a strong partnership between BVYA and the City of Schertz. He emphasized community involvement and introduced between BVYA and the City of Schertz. He emphasized community involvement and introduced innovative programs like "Buffalo Bucks" to encourage parent volunteers and make sports accessible to all. His dedication to youth development, sportsmanship, and community betterment earned him numerous accolades and, most notably, the honor of having the Schertz Ballpark renamed after him in 2018. Johnie McDow's legacy is one of unwavering dedication to youth, sports, and the vibrant community of Schertz. Furthermore, as the current Chairman of the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, Johnie continues to contribute to the community's betterment. His responsibilities include leading bi-monthly board meetings and providing valuable insights and guidance on policies and decisions for the Parks and Recreation Department. Johnie has been a board member since 2007 when the board was first created. Throughout his tenure, Johnie McDow consistently demonstrated an exceptional commitment to community development, youth empowerment, and sportsmanship, setting an inspiring example for all.

CYPRESS POINT PARK Cypress Point Park improvements include the addition of 14 trees, drip irrigation and power circuit installation, and a new shaded swing set. Additionally, a new shade structure was installed and a successful slide repair was made. CRESCENT BEND NATURE PARK A new solar-powered automatic gate was installed at Crescent Bend Nature Park to enhance operational efficiency and to highlight sustainable energy solutions. The park's designation as a nature park, and the conservation efforts that are promoted there, led to a recent designation as a Certified Firefly Habitat. OTHER PROJECTS Many other improvements were made to our parks throughout the year, including the installation of three murals at the dog park, construction of a pedestrian bridge at Heritage Oaks Park, and the addition of multiple BBQ pits, picnic tables and dog waste stations. Multiple parks also had additional playground safety surfacing added. PLANNING OUR PARKS SENIOR CENTER GARDEN ADDITION Exciting strides were made in enhancing our senior center as conceptual designs for the garden addition received resounding approval from our senior community. Anticipation grows as engineering plans are on the brink of review, marking a pivotal step toward realizing this project's potential. With plans set to be bid out this fall, we're eagerly moving forward to bring this addition to life for our seniors. DRY COMAL CREEK NATURE PARK City staff worked with the Great Springs Project to acquire a 10.5-acre future trailhead site for the City’s Dry Comal Creek Trail, the Great Springs Trail, and the El Camino de los Tejas National Historic Trail- 3 interests that all overlap this area! The City was also awarded a $300,000 Recreational Trails Grant from the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department to develop the site. A groundbreaking event will be held in late Fall.

A brand new Recreation Coordinator position was added in the budget and the Event Specialist Position was re-classified to become the Recreation Specialist. Sydney Paredes joined the team in December filling the Recreation Coordinator role and Kathryn Scheel joined soon after as the Recreation Specialist in February. RECREATION SCHERTZ YOUNG LEADERS SYL debuted this year with a class of 7 students from 3 area High Schools, offering a chance to learn about their community and hone leadership skills. This program not only helps create informed citizens, but also reaches a hard to reach audience: teens. The first year consisted of 5 sessions, 1 City Council meeting, 1 SCUCISD School Board Meeting, Movin on Main Volunteer, and graduation. EXPANDED PROGRAMS With the edition of the new Recreation Coordinator position came a multitude of new programming for all ages and a busy summer! Arguably the most anticipated of the programs were the Adult Softball League and Archery camp which both sold out quickly with a waitlist. Overall, 9 new programs were added with 39 individual session options. With the added staff member, the department was also able to expand current offerings, with 2 leagues in the spring rather than 1, and 2 Parks & Rec month activities a week instead of 1. GOLF TOURNAMENT SUCCESS The 12th Annual Hal Baldwin Golf Tournament was a resounding success, with a record breaking year. 150 golfers joined us November 18th, bringing in $40,800 and raising $23,785.50 for the Scholarship Fund. CIVIC/CONVENTION CENTER DEPARTMENT RESTRUCTURE In January, the Civic Center, Community Center, and North Center transitioned from the oversight of Public Affairs to Parks and Recreation as part of a comprehensive citywide restructuring initiative introduced by the City Manager. By consolidating these entities, our department reverted back to its namesake, "Parks, Recreation, & Community Services," with the shared goal of enhancing quality-of-life and providing amenities for our residents. NEW EVENT MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE This year, the Civic Center switched to a new management software called Event Pro. Our staff put in hard work during spring to make the change, and officially launched the software in August. It comes with a handy online calendar for the public to view availability and enhanced data gathering features that make it easier to pull reports. The software now stores customer account information for easy lookup and additional reservations as well as financial integration features that eliminate the need for staff to transfer information to INCODE by hand.

Final Reading (B.James/L.Wood/S.Haas) BACKGROUND As stated in the Unified Development Code (UDC), City Council, from time to time, on its own motion, or at the recommendation of City staff, amend, change, or modify text in any portion of the UDC to establish and maintain stable and desirable development. It is generally considered good practice to periodically review and update the development regulations due to changing conditions, community goals, and/or State and Federal regulations. House Bill (HB) 3699 went into effect on September 1, 2023. Within this bill were provisions that gave the governing municipal body of Schertz the option to give administrative approval authority to staff in relation to subdivision plats. Currently, staff has the authority to administratively approve or deny minor plats and amending plats. The Planning and Zoning Commission has the authority to approve or deny replats, preliminary, final, and vacating plat.  Platting is a technical process that requires the involvement of the entire development team from the city. The Planning, Public Works, Engineering, and Fire Department all thoroughly review subdivision plats to ensure that all state and City of Schertz requirements are met.The UDC stipulates that platting has a "certification" then "formal" process. When a "formal" plat is accepted by the city, state law requires that the city review and approve this plat within 30 days. This is commonly referred to as the "shot-clock" rule. In the event the "shot-clock" has run out, and the review has not been completed, the state law requires automatic approval of the plat. To ensure that staff has enough time to properly review subdivision plats, the City of Schertz adopted the certification process. There are two separate platting processes; the "certification" process where the bulk of the review takes place, and the "formal" application where our platting fee is assessed and the shot-clock begins.The formal plat application is what is presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission and staff has a strict submittal calendar to guarantee a Commission meeting to consider the plat within the 30 day shot-clock. The "certification" then "formal" process is a common practice among other municipalities and a necessary step for staff to ensure that all City of Schertz's UDC requirements are met. However, it adds complexity and time to the overall development process. The purpose of Ordinance 23-S-29 is to help make the process more efficient by potentially removing a time-consuming step in the process. Texas Local Government Code (LGC) Section 212.005(a) states the following:"The municipal authority responsible for approving plats must approve a plat or replat that is required to be prepared under this subchapter and that satisfies the requirements of this subchapter." When plats are presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission, staff has ensured that all applicable regulations and requirements are already met and the action of bringing the item to the Planning and regulations and requirements are already met and the action of bringing the item to the Planning and Zoning Commission is largely procedural.  The Planning and Zoning Commission meets twice a month (sometimes once a month) and this potentially puts added time and cost on a property owner's project. Additionally, staff spends a lot of time and effort to organize an agenda, compile staff reports, and present these plats to the Planning and Zoning Commission; when ultimately according to LGC 211.005(a) the Commission must approve them unless an applicable regulation or requirement is not met, which staff has already ensured the plat meets all requirements prior to bringing the item to the Commission for action.  When a plat does not or cannot reasonably meet all the applicable requirements a waiver to the UDC platting requirements is needed. This is a separate agenda item that is considered before the plat. An example, is when a waiver is requested from the requirement to connect to the sanitary sewer system. Staff often sees this in the more under-developed areas of the city, as sanitary sewer is far enough away that it would be unreasonably expensive for a property owner to connect.   Proposed Amendments: With Ordinance 23-S-29, staff is proposing amendments to the UDC in Article 3 - Boards, Commissions, and Committees and Article 12 - Subdivisions in order to give staff final authority to approve or deny all subdivision plats. Staff is leaving the final approval authority of a waiver request to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Staff believes that the discretionary nature of a waiver request is more appropriate in an appointed body such as the Planning and Zoning Commission. Also, staff may forward any plat to the Commission if it chooses to. Finally, staff is also proposing to explicitly outline an appeals process where, if for some reason a plat does not meet all the applicable requirements and is denied by staff, then an applicant can appeal staff's decision to the Planning and Zoning Commission.     Article 3 - Boards, Commissions and Committees UDC Section 21.3.3 Planning and Zoning Commission Changes the authority of the Planning and Zoning Commission. The commission will have final authority on plats and plans only "if forwarded by the City Manager or his/her designee". UDC Section 21.3.5 Administrative Authority Gives approval authority to "City Manager or his/her designee" for subdivision plats. Article 12 - Subdivisions UDC Section 21.12.2 General Provisions 21.12.2.A. Cleans up language pertaining to property ownership and the dedication of land for public use 21.12.2.I. Includes "City Manager or his/her designee" to subsection related to plat disapproval  UDC Section 21.12.8 Preliminary Plat Process Details the process for administrative approval/denial/appeal of preliminary plats UDC Section 21.12.10 Final Plat Process Details the process for administrative approval/denial/appeal of final plats UDC Section 21.12.13 Replat Process Details the process for administrative approval/denial/appeal of replats UDC Section 21.12.14 Vacating Plat Process Details the process for administrative approval/denial/appeal of vacating plats On October 11, 2023, the Planning & Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing and made a recommendation of approval as presented. A Public Hearing notice was published in the San Antonio Express News on October 25, 2023.  On November 14, 2023, City Council voted to approve the ordinance as presented unanimously 6-0. GOAL To amend the UDC to review and update the development regulations due to changing conditions and community goals in order to establish and maintain sound, stable and desirable development.  COMMUNITY BENEFIT It is the City's desire to promote safe, orderly, efficient development and ensure compliance with the City's vision of future growth. SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION The proposed amendments would help eliminate a largely procedural/ceremonial process. Staff and the city attorney have worked through these proposed amendments to ensure that they meet all new state law requirements as laid out in HB 3699.  On October 11, 2023, the Planning & Zoning Commission conducted a public hearing and made a unanimous recommendation of approval as presented.  On November 14, 2023, City Council voted to approve the ordinance as presented unanimously 6-0. RECOMMENDATION The proposed amendments would make our development process more streamlined, efficient, and cost-effective for both property owners/applicants and for the city. Therefore, staff recommends approval of Ordinance 23-S-29 as presented.

The Owner’s failure to timely respond to any modified Plans submitted by the DB Contractor pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed the Owner’s approval of same. If the Owner fails to timely prepare modified Plans which are its responsibility hereunder, then the DB Contractor shall have the right to modify the Plans for the Owner’s approval as if the DB Contractor had originally prepared the Plans. The process set forth in this paragraph will be repeated until the Owner, the DB Contractor and TxDOT have all approved this Agreement and the Plans. (b) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that TxDOT’s review, comments and approval of a Utility Assembly or any component thereof shall constitute TxDOT’s approval of the location and manner in which a Utility Assembly will be installed, adjusted, or relocated within the State Highway right of way (the “ROW”), subject to the DB Contractor and the Owner’s satisfactory performance of the Adjustment work in accordance with the approved Plans.

Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 7 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department The Owner and the DB Contractor shall make commercially reasonable efforts to submit final invoices no later than 120 days after completion of work. The Owner and the DB Contractor hereby acknowledge and agree that any costs not submitted to the other party within 12 months following completion of all Adjustment work to be performed by the parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to have been abandoned and waived. 9.Betterment and Salvage. (a) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Betterment” means any upgrading of an Owner Utility being adjusted that is not attributable to the construction of the Project and is made solely for the benefit of and at the election of the Owner, including but not limited to an increase in the capacity, capability, efficiency or function of the adjusted Utility over that provided by the existing Utility or an expansion of the existing Utility; provided, however, that the following are not considered Betterments: (1) Any upgrading which is required for accommodation of the Project; (2) Replacement devices or materials that are of equivalent standards although not identical; (3) Replacement of devices or materials no longer regularly manufactured with the next highest grade or size; (4) Any upgrading required by applicable Laws, regulations or ordinances; (5) Replacement devices or materials which are used for reasons of economy (e.g., non- stocked items that may be uneconomical to purchase); or (6) Any upgrading required by the Owner’s written “standards” meeting the requirements of Paragraph 3(a)(4) and deemed to be of direct benefit to the Project. [Include the following for fiber optic Owner Utilities only:] Extension of an adjustment to the nearest splice boxes shall not be considered a Betterment if required by the Owner in order to maintain its written telephony standards. (b) It is understood and agreed that the DB Contractor shall not pay for any Betterments and that the Owner shall be solely responsible therefor. No Betterment may be performed hereunder which is incompatible with the Project or the Ultimate Configuration or which cannot be performed within the other constraints of applicable Law, any applicable governmental approvals, including without limitation the scheduling requirements thereunder. Accordingly, the parties agree as follows [check the one (1) box that applies, and complete if appropriate]: The Adjustment of the Owner Utilities pursuant to the Plans does not include any Betterment. Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 8 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department The Adjustment of the Owner Utilities pursuant to the Plans includes a Betterment to the Owner Utilities by reason of [Insert explanation, e.g. “replacing 12” pipe with 24” pipe]: . The DB Contractor has provided to the Owner comparative estimates for (i) all work to be performed by the DB Contractor pursuant to this Agreement, including work attributable to the Betterment, and (ii) the cost to perform such work without the Betterment, which estimates are hereby approved by the Owner. The estimated cost of the DB Contractor’s work hereunder which is attributable to Betterment is $ , calculated by subtracting (ii) from (i). The percentage of the total cost of the DB Contractor’s work hereunder which is attributable to Betterment is %, calculated by subtracting (ii) from (i), which remainder is divided by (i). (c) If Paragraph 9(b) identifies Betterment, the Owner shall advance to the DB Contractor, at least 14 Business Days prior to the date scheduled for commencement of construction for Adjustment of the Owner Utilities, the estimated cost attributable to Betterment as set forth in Paragraph 9(b). Should the Owner fail to advance payment to the DB Contractor 14 Business Days prior to commencement of the Adjustment construction, the DB Contractor shall have the option of commencing and completing (without delay) the Adjustment work without installation of the applicable Betterment. [If Paragraph 9(b) identifies Betterment, check the one (1) appropriate provision]: The estimated cost stated in Paragraph 9(b) is the agreed and final amount due for Betterment hereunder, and accordingly no adjustment (either up or down) of such amount shall be made based on actual costs. The Owner is responsible for the DB Contractor’s actual cost for the identified Betterment. Accordingly, upon completion of all Adjustment work to be performed by both parties pursuant to this Agreement, (i) the Owner shall pay to the DB Contractor the amount, if any, by which the actual cost of the Betterment (determined as provided below in this paragraph) exceeds the estimated cost advanced by the Owner, or (ii) the DB Contractor shall refund to the Owner the amount, if any, by which such advance exceeds such actual cost, as applicable. Any additional payment by the Owner shall be due within 60 calendar days after the Owner’s receipt of the DB Contractor’s invoice therefor, together with supporting documentation; any refund shall be due within 60 calendar days after completion of the Adjustment work hereunder. The actual cost of Betterment incurred by the DB Contractor shall be calculated by multiplying (i) the Betterment percentage stated in Paragraph 9(b), by (ii) the actual cost of all work performed by the DB Contractor pursuant to this Agreement (including work attributable to the Betterment), as invoiced by the DB Contractor to the Owner. (d) If Paragraph 9(b) identifies Betterment, the amount allocable to Betterment in the Owner’s indirect costs shall be determined by applying the percentage of the Betterment calculated in Paragraph 9(b) to the Owner’s indirect costs. The Owner’s invoice to the DB Contractor for the DB Contractor’s share of the Owner’s indirect costs, shall credit the DB Contractor with any Betterment amount determined pursuant to this Paragraph 9(d). (e) For any Adjustment from which the Owner recovers any materials and/or parts and retains or sells the same, after application of any applicable Betterment credit, the Owner’s invoice to the Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 9 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department DB Contractor for its costs shall credit the DB Contractor with the salvage value for such materials and/or parts. (f) The determinations and calculations of Betterment described in this Paragraph 9 shall exclude right of way acquisition costs. Betterment in connection with right of way acquisition is addressed in Paragraph 15. 10.Management of the Adjustment Work. The DB Contractor will provide project management during the Adjustment of the Owner Utilities. 11.Utility Investigations. At the DB Contractor’s request, the Owner shall assist the DB Contractor in locating any Utilities (including appurtenances) which are owned and/or operated by the Owner and may be impacted by the Project. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in order to help assure that neither the adjusted Owner Utilities nor existing, unadjusted Utilities owned or operated by the Utility Owner are damaged during construction of the Project, the Owner shall mark in the field the location of all such Utilities horizontally on the ground in advance of Project construction in the immediate area of such Utilities. 12.Inspection and Acceptance by the Owner. (a) Throughout the Adjustment construction hereunder, the Owner shall provide adequate inspectors for such construction. The work shall be inspected by the Owner’s inspector(s) at least once each working day, and more often if such inspections are deemed necessary by Owner. Further, upon request by the DB Contractor or its Subcontractors, the Owner shall furnish an inspector at any reasonable time in which construction is underway pursuant to this Agreement, including occasions when construction is underway in excess of the usual 40 hour work week and at such other times as reasonably required. The Owner agrees to promptly notify the DB Contractor of any concerns resulting from any such inspection. (b) The Owner shall perform a final inspection of the adjusted Owner Utilities, including conducting any tests as are necessary or appropriate, within five (5) Business Days after completion of construction hereunder. The Owner shall accept such construction if it is consistent with the performance standards described in Paragraph 3, by giving written notice of such acceptance to the DB Contractor within said five (5) day period. If the Owner does not accept the construction, then the Owner shall, not later than the expiration of said five (5) day period, notify the DB Contractor in writing of its grounds for non-acceptance and suggestions for correcting the problem, and if the suggested corrections are justified, the DB Contractor will comply. The Owner shall re-inspect any revised construction (and retest if appropriate) and give notice of acceptance, no later than five (5) Business Days after completion of corrective work. The Owner’s failure to inspect and to give any required notice of acceptance or non-acceptance within the specified time period shall be deemed accepted. (c) From and after the Owner’s acceptance (or deemed acceptance) of an adjusted Owner Utility, the Owner agrees to accept ownership of, and full operation and maintenance responsibility for, such Owner Utility. 13.Design Changes. The DB Contractor will be responsible for additional Adjustment design and construction costs necessitated by design changes to the Project, upon the terms specified herein. Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 10 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department 14.Field Modifications. The DB Contractor shall provide the Owner with documentation of any field modifications, including Utility Adjustment Field Modifications as well as minor changes described in Paragraph 16(b), occurring in the Adjustment of the Owner Utilities. 15.Real Property Interests. (a) The Owner has provided, or upon execution of this Agreement shall promptly provide to the DB Contractor, documentation acceptable to TxDOT indicating any right, title or interest in real property claimed by the Owner with respect to the Owner Utilities in their existing location(s). Such claims are subject to TxDOT’s approval as part of its review of the DB Contractor Utility Assembly as described in Paragraph 2. Claims approved by TxDOT as to rights or interests are referred to herein as “Existing Utility Property Interests”. (b) If acquisition of any new easement or other interest in real property (“Replacement Utility Property Interest”) is necessary for the Adjustment of any Owner Utilities, then the Owner shall be responsible for undertaking such acquisition. The Owner shall implement each acquisition hereunder expeditiously so that related Adjustment construction can proceed in accordance with the DB Contractor’s Project schedules. The DB Contractor shall be responsible for its share (as specified in Paragraph 4) of the actual and reasonable acquisition costs of any such Replacement Utility Property Interest (including without limitation the Owner’s reasonable overhead charges and reasonable legal costs as well as compensation paid to the landowner), excluding any costs attributable to Betterment as described in Paragraph 15(c), and subject to the provisions of Paragraph 15(e); provided, however, that all acquisition costs shall be subject to the DB Contractor’s prior written approval. Eligible acquisition costs shall be segregated from other costs on the Owner’s estimates and invoices. Any such Replacement Utility Property Interest shall have a written valuation and shall be acquired in accordance with applicable Law. (c) The DB Contractor shall pay its share only for a replacement in kind of an Existing Utility Property Interest (e.g., in width and type), unless a Replacement Utility Property Interest exceeding such standard: (1) Is required in order to accommodate the Project or by compliance with applicable Law; or (2) Is called for by the DB Contractor in the interest of overall Project economy. Any Replacement Utility Property Interest which is not the DB Contractor’s responsibility pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be considered Betterment to the extent that it upgrades the Existing Utility Property Interest which it replaces, or in its entirety if the related Owner Utility was not installed pursuant to an Existing Utility Property Interest. Betterment costs shall be solely the Owner’s responsibility. (d) For each Existing Utility Property Interest located within the Project right of way, upon completion of the related Adjustment work and its acceptance by the Owner, the Owner agrees to execute a quitclaim deed or other appropriate documentation relinquishing such Existing Utility Property Interest to TxDOT, unless the affected Owner Utility is remaining in its original location or is being reinstalled in a new location within the area subject to such Existing Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 11 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department Utility Property Interest. If the Owner’s facilities are remaining within the existing property interest, a Utility Joint Use Acknowledgement will be required. All quitclaim deeds or other relinquishment documents shall be subject to TxDOT’s approval as part of its review of the Utility Assembly as described in Paragraph 2. For each such Existing Utility Property Interest relinquished by the Owner, the DB Contractor shall do one (1) of the following to compensate the Owner for such Existing Utility Property Interest, as appropriate: (1) If the Owner acquires a Replacement Utility Property Interest for the affected Owner Utility, the DB Contractor shall reimburse the Owner for the DB Contractor’s share of the Owner’s actual and reasonable acquisition costs in accordance with Paragraph 15(b), subject to Paragraph 15(c); or (2) If the Owner does not acquire a Replacement Utility Property Interest for the affected Owner Utility, the DB Contractor shall compensate the Owner for the DB Contractor’s share of the market value of such relinquished Existing Utility Property Interest, as mutually agreed between the Owner and the DB Contractor and supported by a written valuation. The compensation, if any, provided to the Owner pursuant to either subparagraph (i) or (ii) above shall constitute complete compensation to the Owner for the relinquished Existing Utility Property Interest and any Replacement Utility Property Interest, and not further compensation shall be due to the Owner from the DB Contractor or TxDOT on account of such Existing Utility Property Interest or Replacement Utility Property Interest. (e) All Utility Joint Use Acknowledgments (UJUA) or Utility Installation Requests, Form 1082 shall be subject to TxDOT approval as part of its review of the Utility Assembly as described in Paragraph 2. A Utility Joint Use Acknowledgment is required where an Existing Utility Property Interest exists and the existing or proposed Utility will remain or be adjusted within the boundaries of the Existing Utility Property Interest. All other accommodations not located on Existing Utility Property Interests will require a Utility Installation Request, Form 1082. 16.Amendments and Modifications. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto, in accordance with Paragraph 16(a) or Paragraph 16(b) below: (a) Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph 16(b), any amendment or modification to this Agreement or the Plans attached hereto shall be implemented by a Utility Adjustment Agreement Amendment (“UAAA”) in the form of Exhibit B hereto (DB-ROW-U-UAAA- DM). The UAAA form can be used for a new scope of work with concurrence of the DB Contractor and TxDOT as long as the design and construction responsibilities have not changed. Each UAAA is subject to the review and approval of TxDOT, prior to its becoming effective for any purpose and prior to any work being initiated thereunder. The Owner agrees to keep and track costs for each UAAA separately from other work being performed. (b) For purposes of this Paragraph 16(b), “Utility Adjustment Field Modification” shall mean any horizontal or vertical design change from the Plans included in a Utility Assembly previously approved by TxDOT, due either to design of the Project or to conditions not accurately reflected in the approved Utility Assembly (e.g., shifting the alignment of an 8 inch water line to miss a modified or new roadway drainage structure). A Utility Adjustment Field Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 12 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department Modification agreed upon by the DB Contractor and the Owner does not require a UAAA, provided that the modified Plans have been submitted to TxDOT for its review and comment. A minor change (e.g., an additional water valve, an added Utility marker at a ROW line, a change in vertical bend, etc.) will not be considered a Utility Adjustment Field Modification and will not require a UAAA, but shall be shown in the documentation required pursuant to Paragraph 14. (c) This Agreement does not alter and shall not be construed in any way to alter the obligations, responsibilities, benefits, rights, remedies, and claims between the DB Contractor and TxDOT to design and construct the Project, including the Adjustment. 17.Entire Agreement. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement between the parties and there are no oral or written agreements between the parties or any representations made which are not expressly set forth herein. 18.Assignment; Binding Effect; TxDOT as Third-Party Beneficiary. Neither the Owner nor the DB Contractor may assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party and of TxDOT, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that the DB Contractor may assign any of its rights and/or delegate any of its duties to TxDOT or to any other entity engaged by TxDOT to fulfill the DB Contractor’s obligations, at any time without the prior consent of the Owner. This Agreement shall bind the Owner, the DB Contractor and their successors and permitted assigns, and nothing in this Agreement nor in any approval subsequently provided by any party hereto shall be construed as giving any benefits, rights, remedies, or claims to any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, including, without limitation, any contractor or other party retained for the Adjustment work or the public in general; provided, however, that the Owner and the DB Contractor agree that although TxDOT is not a party to this Agreement, TxDOT is intended to be a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement. 19.Breach by the Parties. (a) If the Owner claims that the DB Contractor has breached any of its obligations under this Agreement, the Owner will notify the DB Contractor and TxDOT in writing of such breach, and the DB Contractor shall have 30 days following receipt of such notice in which to cure such breach, before the Owner may invoke any remedies which may be available to it as a result of such breach; provided, however, that both during and after such period TxDOT shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure any breach by the DB Contractor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (1) TxDOT shall have no liability to the Owner for any act or omission committed by the DB Contractor in connection with this Agreement, including without limitation any claimed defect in any design or construction work supplied by the DB Contractor or by its Subcontractors; and (2) In no event shall TxDOT be responsible for any repairs or maintenance to the Owner Utilities adjusted pursuant to this Agreement. Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 13 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department (b) If the DB Contractor claims that the Owner has breached any of its obligations under this Agreement, the DB Contractor will notify the Owner and TxDOT in writing of such breach, and the Owner shall have 30 days following receipt of such notice in which to cure such breach, before the DB Contractor may invoke any remedies which may be available to it as a result of such breach. 20.Traffic Control. The DB Contractor shall provide traffic control or shall reimburse the Owner for the DB Contractor’s share (if any, as specified in Paragraph 4) of the costs for traffic control made necessary by the Adjustment work performed by either the DB Contractor or the Owner pursuant to this Agreement, in compliance with the requirements of the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. Betterment percentages calculated in Paragraph 9 shall also apply to traffic control costs. 21.Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all notices or communications pursuant to this Agreement shall be sent or delivered to the following: Owner: 1400 Schertz Parkway Schertz, Texas 78154 Phone: (210) 619-1000 Fax: ( ) - DB Contractor: 7330 San Pedro Avenue, Suite 500 Attn: Legal Department San Antonio, Texas 78216 Legal@alamonex.us A party sending notice of default of this Agreement to another party shall also send a copy of such notice to TxDOT at the following address: Texas Department of Transportation Attention: Project Finance, Debt & Strategic Contracts Division 125 E 11th Street Austin, TX 78701-2483 Any notice or demand required herein shall be given (a) personally, (b) by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or (c) by reliable messenger or overnight courier to the appropriate address set forth above. Any notice served personally shall be deemed delivered upon receipt, and any notice served by certified or registered mail or by reliable messenger or overnight courier shall be deemed delivered on the date of receipt as shown on the addressee’s registry or certification of receipt or on the date receipt is refused as shown on the records or manifest of the U.S. Postal Service or such courier. Any party may designate any other address for this purpose by written notice to all other parties; TxDOT may designate another address by written notice to all parties. 22.Approvals. Any acceptance, approval, or any other like action (collectively “Approval”) required or permitted to be given by the DB Contractor, the Owner or TxDOT pursuant to this Agreement: (a) Must be in writing to be effective (except if deemed granted pursuant hereto); (b) Shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and if Approval is withheld, such withholding shall be in writing and shall state with specificity the reason for withholding such Approval, Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 14 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department and every effort shall be made to identify with as much detail as possible what changes are required for Approval; and (c) Except for approvals by TxDOT, and except as may be specifically provided otherwise in this Agreement, shall be deemed granted if no response is provided to the party requesting an Approval within the time period prescribed by this Agreement (or if no time period is prescribed, then 14 calendar days), commencing upon actual receipt by the party from which an Approval is requested or required, of a request for Approval from the requesting party. All requests for Approval shall be sent out by the requesting party to the other party in accordance with Paragraph 21. 23.Time. (a) Time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement. (b) All references to “days” herein shall be construed to refer to calendar days, unless otherwise stated. (c) No party shall be liable to another party for any delay in performance under this Agreement from any cause beyond its control and without its fault or negligence (“Force Majeure”), such as acts of God, acts of civil or military authority, fire, earthquake, strike, unusually severe weather, floods or power blackouts. 24.Continuing Performance. In the event of a dispute, the Owner and the DB Contractor agree to continue their respective performance hereunder to the extent feasible in light of the dispute, including paying billings, and such continuation of efforts and payment of billings shall not be construed as a waiver of any legal right. 25.Equitable Relief. The DB Contractor and the Owner acknowledge and agree that delays in Adjustment of the Owner Utilities will impact the public convenience, safety and welfare, and that (without limiting the parties’ remedies hereunder) monetary damages would be inadequate to compensate for delays in the construction of the Project. Consequently, the parties hereto (and TxDOT as well, as a third-party beneficiary) shall be entitled to specific performance or other equitable relief in the event of any breach of this Agreement which threatens to delay construction of the Project; provided, however, that the fact that specific performance or other equitable relief may be granted shall not prejudice any claims for payment or otherwise related to performance of the Adjustment work hereunder. 26.Authority. The Owner and the DB Contractor each represent and warrant to the other party that the warranting party possesses the legal authority to enter into this Agreement and that it has taken all actions necessary to exercise that authority and to lawfully authorize its undersigned signatory to execute this Agreement and to bind such party to its terms. Each person executing this Agreement on behalf of a party warrants that he or she is duly authorized to enter into this Agreement on behalf of such party and to bind it to the terms hereof. 27.Cooperation. The parties acknowledge that the timely completion of the Project will be influenced by the ability of the Owner (and its contractors) and the DB Contractor to coordinate their activities, communicate with each other, and respond promptly to reasonable requests. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Owner and the DB Contractor agree to take all steps reasonably Texas Department of Transportation Form DB-ROW-U-PUAA-DM Page 15 of 16 REV 07/2018 Texas of Transportation Department required to coordinate their respective duties hereunder in a manner consistent with the DB Contractor’s current and future construction schedules for the Project. 28.Termination. If the Project is canceled or modified so as to eliminate the necessity of the Adjustment work described herein, then the DB Contractor shall notify the Owner in writing and the DB Contractor reserves the right to thereupon terminate this Agreement. Upon such termination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith an amendment that shall provide mutually acceptable terms and conditions for handling the respective rights and liabilities of the parties relating to such termination. 29.Nondiscrimination. Each party hereto agrees, with respect to the work performed by such party pursuant to this Agreement that such party shall not discriminate on the grounds of race, color, sex, national origin or disability in the selection and/or retention of contractors and consultants, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment. 30.Applicable Law, Jurisdiction and Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by the Laws of the State of Texas, without regard to the Conflict of Laws principles thereof. Venue for any action brought to enforce this Agreement or relating to the relationship between any of the parties shall be the District Court of County, Texas [or the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas (Austin)]. 31.Relationship of the Parties. This Agreement does not in any way, and shall not be construed to, create a principal/agent or joint venture relationship between the parties hereto and under no circumstances shall the Owner or the DB Contractor be considered as or represent itself to be an agent of the other. 32.Waiver of Consequential Damages. No party hereto shall be liable to any other party to this Agreement, whether in contract, tort, equity, or otherwise (including negligence, warranty, indemnity, strict liability, or otherwise) for any punitive, exemplary, special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, including, without limitation, loss of profits or revenues, loss of use, claims of customers, or loss of business opportunity. 33.Captions.

(B.James/K.Woodlee/E.Schulze) BACKGROUND The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is working on a project to widen the right of way and paving of FM 1518 from FM 78 to IH 10 within the City of Schertz. Before the roadway improvements enter the construction phase, most utilities must be relocated outside of the ultimate pavement section.  The City provides an emergency water connection to Randolph Air Force Base (RAFB) along FM 1518.  Part of this connection includes backflow prevention valves and piping to protect against cross contamination and meet TCEQ requirements.  These improvements are located within the newly acquired FM 1518 ROW and need to be relocated. TxDOT has requested that the City assist in the relation of these improvements for RAFB.  The design and relocation of improvements will be 100% reimbursable because the improvements were originally installed outside of ROW and also belong to the Base.  Halff Associates, Inc., one of the City’s on-call Engineers, is familiar with the location and operation of City utilities along FM 1518 and has experience with City utility relocation projects along TxDOT roadways and is fully equipped to provide these services to the City. GOAL The goal of Resolution 23-R-107 is to authorize an agreement with Halff Associates to complete the required design services required to relocate the RAFB backflow prevention device and piping as part of TxDOT’s FM 1518 road widening project. COMMUNITY BENEFIT The relocation of this utility installation will ensure the City and RAFB utilities are provided in an alignment outside of TxDOT operations and that allows adequate space for future maintenance. SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution 23-R-107, authorizing a project agreement with Halff Associates, Inc., for $70,463 and a not-to-exceed amount of $80,000 for design, bid, and construction phase engineering services for the relocation of a Backflow Device for Randolph Air Force Base. FISCAL IMPACT Funding for the design work has been allocated from the City’s Water and Sewer Construction Funding for the design work has been allocated from the City’s Water and Sewer Construction Reserves.  The City will have to provide initial funding, however this project is 100% reimbursable through TxDOT because of the original utility location and that RAFB is the owner of the backflow prevention device.

Page 2 b) Engineer will prepare monthly invoices in a format acceptable to the city along with a progress report of activities accomplished during the period. c) Participate in bi-weekly coordination meetings with city staff to discuss project updates and address conflicts. Deliverables – Monthly Progress Reports, Meeting Minutes PHASE 2 – Data Collection and Review Task 1 – Data Acquisition Halff will review existing record drawings and existing easement information obtained from the City or TxDOT, including but not limited to: a) As-built records for all available City water and wastewater within the area project limits. b) Existing plat and separate instrument easement documents recorded with the Owner and Bexar County. c) Pending development plans with anticipated connections or easement dedications to the Owner Task 2 – Subsurface Utility Engineering and Utility Coordination Halff will perform SUE in accordance with ASCE/UESI/CI 38-22 “Standard Guideline for Investigating and Documenting Existing Utilities.” This standard defines the following Quality Levels: Quality Level-A: Precise horizontal and vertical location of utilities obtained by the actual exposure (or verification of previously exposed and surveyed utilities) and subsequent measurement of subsurface utilities, usually at a specific point. Minimally intrusive excavation equipment is typically used to minimize the potential for utility damage. A precise horizontal and vertical location, as well as other utility attributes, is shown on plan documents. Quality Level-B: Information obtained through the application of appropriate surface geophysical methods to determine the existence and approximate horizontal position of subsurface utilities. Quality Level-B data should be reproducible by surface geophysics at any point of their depiction. This information is surveyed to applicable tolerances defined by the project and reduced onto plan documents. Quality Level-C: Information obtained by surveying and plotting visible above-ground utility features and by using professional judgment in correlating this information to Quality Level-D information. Quality Level-D: Information derived from existing records or oral recollections. Quality Level-A Utility Test Holes (Vacuum Excavation): Quality Level-A Test Holes are not part of this Scope of Services. Quality Level-B Utility Designating: Task Order Form EJCDC® E-505, Agreement Between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services – Task Order Edition. Copyright © 2014 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, and American Society of Civil Engineers. All rights reserved. Page 3 Halff will designate the approximate horizontal position of conductive/toneable utilities within the project limits using geophysical prospecting equipment and mark using paint and/or pin flags. We anticipate the designation of approximately 2,000 linear feet of utilities including buried communication, electric, natural gas, and water. Designation of irrigation lines, HDPE lines, gathering lines, asbestos concrete and/or pvc lines, as well as pvc lines without tracer wire or access are not part of this Scope of Services. Because of limited utility record information and the possibility of non-conductive/un-toneable utilities, Halff cannot guarantee all utilities will be found and marked within the project limits. Quality Level-C Surveying: Quality Level-B Utility Designation paint markings, pin flags, and above ground utility appurtenances will be surveyed and tied utilizing project survey control provided by The Owner. Quality Level-D Records Research: Any available Records will be provided to Halff by The Owner. Halff will perform additional record research as needed to successfully complete the project. Because there are situations where the utility does not have a metallic composition, a metallic tracer line attached, or access to insert a tracer line, the approximate location of the utility may be determined by the use of utility records and direct correspondence with the utility owner/representative. In these areas, the information will be considered Quality Level-D, depicted according to utility record information only. SUE Field Manager / Professional Engineer: A SUE Field Manager will be on-site for a portion of this project for field crew supervision, field quality control, and coordination with on-site personnel. A Professional Engineer will be responsible for QA/QC, management of the contract, signing the final deliverables and coordination with the project team if necessary. SUE Deliverables / CADD: Deliverables for the Quality Level-B 2D Utility Designation will be an electronic file depicting the findings of the investigation. Right-of-Entry: Right-of-Entry is not part of this Scope of Services as work is anticipated within the existing road right-of- way. If right-of-entry is required, it will be performed and provided to Halff by The Owner and or TxDOT. Halff will coordinate with the property owner(s) once right-of-entry has been obtained. Permitting: Permitting is not part of this Scope of Services. Work Zone Traffic Control: Task Order Form EJCDC® E-505, Agreement Between Owner and Engineer for Professional Services – Task Order Edition.

CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS Ralph Gutierrez, Mayor ATTEST: Sheila Edmondson, City Secretary Agenda No. 12.   CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM    City Council Meeting:December 5, 2023 Department:Engineering Subject:Resolution 23-R-120 – Authorizing a professional services agreement with expenditures up to $380,000 with Kimley-Horn & Associates, Inc., for the 2024 Street Resurfacing and Rehabilitation Project (B.James/K.Woodlee/J.Nowak) BACKGROUND The proposed project is a continuation of the City’s ongoing street preservation effort.  The project has two components.  One component is “resurfacing” and the other is “rehabilitation.” The resurfacing effort consists of performing base repairs, asphalt leveling, and crack sealing of various streets then applying a slurry seal to the entire surface.  This is a continuation of the slurry seal projects completed in 2022 and earlier this year. The rehabilitation work is for streets that are in slightly worse shape than those being resurfaced.  These streets typically have a large amount of base repairs needed (a relatively high percentage of the total street area).  This process involves removing the existing pavement; stabilizing, reshaping, and recompacting the base; and placing new pavement.  This is similar to the work done in the Northcliffe area about three years ago and on Cherry Tree a couple years ago.  While this effort is more costly than resurfacing, it is less costly than full reconstruction.  The professional services agreement includes geotechnical borings to confirm the existing street sections and develop the appropriate streets section that will be reconstructed. When the 2022 project was being developed, some of the originally planned for resurfacing had to be removed from the project in order to stay within budget.  Streets removed from the project included a few streets needing resurfacing and some streets that had deteriorated further and needed rehabilitation.  Earlier this year, the streets needing resurfacing were completed.  This project includes the rehabilitation streets that had to be removed from the earlier project. The other streets included in this project were selected based primarily on the PCI score of the street.  Other factors in the selection process include: citizen complaints, planned utility replacements, and available budget.  The planned streets for this project can be found on the attached maps.  The red highlighted streets represent resurfacing while the green-highlighted ones represent rehabilitation. GOAL The goal of this item is to obtain authorization from City Council to execute a Task Order Agreement with Kimley-Horn & Associates, Inc. for $358,425 and a not-to-exceed amount of $380,000 for the 2024 Street Resurfacing and Rehabilitation project. COMMUNITY BENEFIT The professional engineering services will provide for the creation of project bidding documents and The professional engineering services will provide for the creation of project bidding documents and bid result analysis, allowing the project to move forward more quickly, completing the construction activities this fiscal year.  Completion of these activities will improve the condition of the streets in the project, benefitting motorists, and avoiding the need to completely reconstruct the roadways at a higher unit cost in the future. SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION Staff recommends that Council authorize execution of a Task Order Agreement with Kimley-Horn & Associates, Inc. for $358,425 and a not-to-exceed amount of $380,000 for the 2024 Street Resurfacing and Rehabilitation project. FISCAL IMPACT Funding for the project will come from the existing Streets Division budget line item for Outsourced Street Maintenance. RECOMMENDATION Approve Resolution 23-R-120.

The proposal will be split into the following tasks: • Task A – Street Preservation Projects • Task B – Street Rehabilitation Projects PROJECT UNDERSTANDING Per correspondence between the City and Kimley-Horn, the goal of this project is to use slurry seal and microsurfacing for streets listed under the preservation category and cement or asphalt emulsion for street rehabilitation projects. There are currently 39 confirmed streets planned for slurry seal, 1 for microsurfacing and 14 streets for street rehabilitation. As discussed with the City we have also accounted for an additional subdivision of approximately 5 streets to be added to the street preservation list. These additional streets will be determined by the City at a later date. In total, this amounts to 54 confirmed streets that are spread throughout the City, totaling over 57,000 linear feet or approximately 10.8 miles. Each application type, preservation (slurry seal and micro surface) and rehabilitation, will be divided into separate contracts and then bid as separate construction contracts utilizing the Request for Competitive Sealed Proposal (RFCSP) contract method. Kimley-Horn will provide construction phase administration services to assist the City with overall support and documenting improvements are being constructed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications. SCOPE OF SERVICES The slurry seal and microsurface application will be utilized for street preservation and will include the completion of necessary structural pavement repairs (base repairs) in advance of placement of the seal application. The street rehabilitation application will be utilized for streets in poorer condition, in which the existing pavement will be recycled and mixed with cement or emulsion, recompacted and graded to drain, and a new surface course installed. Pavement cores will be obtained by a geotechnical engineer as a sub- consultant to Kimley-Horn. These pavement cores will confirm the existing pavement section depth and characteristics and that there is suitable material in place to perform the necessary mixing application. The geotechnical engineer will confirm the appropriate material to mix with the existing pavement section and the ratio of material. It is assumed that either cement or emulsion will be utilized as the mixing material. Based on previous experience with street preservation and rehabilitation projects and the current condition of streets included in this program, Kimley-Horn anticipates some flatwork (concrete curb, sidewalks, and driveways) will require replacement. Page 2 kimley-horn.com 10101 Reunion Place, Suite 400, San Antonio, TX 78216 210 541 9166 Kimley-Horn will complete site visits for all streets to verify and document existing condition and obtain field measurements for pavement repairs and flatwork removal/replacement limits. These measurements will be utilized to populate approximate construction cost estimates and develop aerial based schematic drawings to illustrate proposed improvements. Improvements shown on schematics will be approximate with dimensions listed and will provide a general idea of proposed location. The contractor will be responsible for confirming actual locations with Engineer and City PM prior to construction. A limited set of construction drawings will be developed to convey repair locations, quantities and proposed improvements. With the preservation and rehabilitation projects being issued under separate construction contracts, a separate construction drawings and specifications package will be developed for each application type. It is Kimley-horn’s intent to combine the slurry seal and microsurface into a single construction contract. The following tasks outline the detailed scope of services to be completed by Kimley-Horn for this project. Also attached with this proposal is a project work plan that details out the tasks to be performed and expected level of effort. TASK A – STREET PRESERVATION PROJECTS Task 1A: Project Management 1.

Sincerely, Terracon (Firm Registration: TX F3272) Carlos Cotilla Gregory P. Stieben , P.E. Staff Engineer Senior Consultant ATTACHMENT 3 Proposal for Geotechnical Engineering Services Schertz SPAM Projects 2024 | Schertz, Texas November 27, 2023 | Terracon Revised Proposal No. P90235304R Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials Exhibit A – Project Understanding Our Scope of Services is based on our understanding of the project as described below. We have not visited the project site to confirm the information provided. Aspects of the project, undefined or assumed, are highlighted as shown below . We request the design team verify all information prior to our initiation of field exploration activities. Terracon previously provided a Geotechnical Report (Terracon Project No. 90215067, dated October 26, 2022) for the proposed reconstruction of streets within the Dove Meadows Neighborhood and Robin Hood Way. The findings in that report will be used to supplement th is new geotechnical study. Planned Construction Item Description Information Provided We have been provided the site location s by the Client. Roadways The project includes the reconstruction and rehabilitation of several streets in Schertz, Texas. ■ Maple Drive from Oak Street to Colony Drive (approx. 3,600 LF) will be rehabilitated. A small section of the road will be reconstructed. ■ Robin Hood Way (approx. 4,000 LF) will be rehabilitated. ■ Dove Meadows Neighborhood, several roads within the neighborhood will be rehabilitated. ■ St. Andrews from Country C lub Boulevard to Pebble Beach will be rehabilitated. Pavements Only flexible (asphalt) pavement sections will be considered. Site Location and Anticipated Conditions Item Description Parcel Information The project is located at various streets in Schertz, Texas. Existing Improvements Existing roadways Current Ground Cover Asphalt. Existing Topography Unknown Proposal for Geotechnical Engineering Services Schertz SPAM Projects 2024 | Schertz, Texas November 27, 2023 | Terracon Revised Proposal No. P90235304R Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials Site Access We expect the site, and all exploration locations, are accessible with our truck-mounted drilling equipment and support vehicles. Exhibit B - Scope of Services Our proposed Scope of Services consists of field exploration, laboratory testing, and engineering/project delivery. These services are described in the following sections. The asphalt core observations and measurements from th e previous Terracon Geotechnical Report (Terracon Project No. 90215067, dated October 26, 2022) will be used to supplement the rehabilitation recommendations for Robin Hood Way and Dove Meadows. Borings were performed previously on the Dove Meadows and Rob in Hood Way sites. Field Exploration Based on the proposed development and our experience in the project areas , the following field exploration is proposed: Number of Borings Planned Boring Depth (feet) 1 Number of Pavement Cores Planned Location 1 (A-1) 10 7 (C-1 thru C-7) Maple Drive --- --- 2 (D-1 and D-2) Dove Meadows Neighborhood --- --- 5 (E-1 thru E -5) Robin Hood Way --- --- 4 (F-1 thru F-4) St. Andrews 1. Below ground surface. Boring Layout and Elevations: We will use handheld GPS equipment to locate borings with an estimated horizontal accuracy of +/-20 feet . Field measurements from existing site features may be utilized. If available, approximate elevations will be obtained by interpolation from a site specific, surveyed topographic map. Subsurface Exploration Proc edures: We will advance soil borings with a truck- mounted drill rig using continuous flight augers (solid stem and/or hollow stem, as necessary, depending on soil conditions). F ive samples will be obtained in the upper 10 feet of each boring and at interva ls of 5 feet thereafter. Soil sampling is typically performed using thin -wall tube and/or split -barrel sampling procedures. The split-barrel samplers are driven in accordance with the standard penetration test (SPT). The samples will be placed in appropria te containers, taken to our soil laboratory for testing, and Proposal for Geotechnical Engineering Services Schertz SPAM Projects 2024 | Schertz, Texas November 27, 2023 | Terracon Revised Proposal No. P90235304R Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials classified by a Geotechnical Engineer. In addition, we will observe and record groundwater levels during drilling and sampling. Our exploration team will prepare field boring logs as part of sta ndard drilling operations including sampling depths, penetration distances, and other relevant sampling information. Field logs include visual classifications of materials observed during drilling and our interpretation of subsurface conditions between sam ples. Final boring logs, prepared from field logs, represent the Geotechnical Engineer's interpretation and include modifications based on observations and laboratory tests. Property Disturbance: We will backfill borings wit h auger cuttings after completion. Pavements are patched with cold-mix asphalt and/or ready -mixed concrete, as appropriate. Our services do not include repair of the site beyond backfilling our boreholes and patching existing pavements. Excess auger cuttings will be dispersed i n the general vicinity of the borehole. Because backfill material often settles below the surface after a period, we recommend boreholes to be periodically checked and backfilled, if necessary. We can provide this service or grout the boreholes for additio nal fees at your request. Safety Terracon is currently not aware of environmental concerns at this project site that would create health or safety hazards associated with our exploration program; thus, our Scope considers standard OSHA Level D Personal Pro tection Equipment (PPE) appropriate. Our Scope of Services does not include environmental site assessment services, but identification of unusual or unnatural materials observed while drilling will be noted on our logs. Exploration efforts require borings (and possibly excavations) into the subsurface, therefore Terracon will comply with local regulations to request a utility location service Texas811 We will consult with the landowner/client regarding potential utilities or other unmarked underground hazar ds. Based upon the results of this consultation, we will consider the need for alternative subsurface exploration methods as the safety of our field crew is a priority. Private utilities should be marked by the owner/client prior to commencement of field exploration. Terracon will not be responsible for damage to private utilities not disclosed to us. Terracon will notify Texas811, a free utility location service, prior to our drilling program to help locate utilities within dedicated public utility easeme nts. If underground utilities are known to exist on the site, Terracon should be notified so that we may review utility plans to help avoid the existing lines. Terracon cannot be responsible for utilities for which we are unaware or that are improperly located in the field. Location of private lines on the property is not part of the Texas 811 scope . Proposal for Geotechnical Engineering Services Schertz SPAM Projects 2024 | Schertz, Texas November 27, 2023 | Terracon Revised Proposal No. P90235304R Facilities | Environmental | Geotechnical | Materials Site Access: Terracon must be granted access to the site by the property owner. By acceptance of this proposal, without information to the contrary, we consi der this as authorization to access the property for conducting field exploration in accordance with the Scope of Services. Laboratory Testing The project engineer will review field data and assign laboratory tests to understand the engineering properties of various soil strata. Exact types and number of tests cannot be defined until completion of fieldwork, but we anticipate the following laboratory testing may be performed for the soil boring: ■ Water content ■ Percent Passing No. 200 sieve ■ Atterberg limits ■ Sulfate Tests ■ CBR (1 test) (The test results from the previous study will be used) ■ Standard Proctor (1 test) (The test results from the previous study will be used) ■ Lime Series (1 test) (The test results from the previous study will be used) Our laboratory testing program often includes examination of soil samples by an engineer. Based on the results of our field and laboratory programs, we will describe and classify soil samples in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). Engineering and Project Delivery The results of our field and laboratory programs will be evaluated, and a geotechnical engineering report will be prepared under the supervision of a licensed professional engineer. The geotechnical engineering repo rt will provide the following: ■ Boring and coring location plan. ■ Subsurface exploration procedures. ■ Computer generated boring logs with soil classification. ■ Summarized laboratory data. ■ Groundwater levels observed during and after completion drilling. ■ Encountered soil conditions. ■ Subgrade soil modification recommendations for pavement design. ■ Existing pavement thickness. ■ Pavement design recommendation in accordance with the City of Schertz design manual.

(S.Gonzalez/L.Shrum) BACKGROUND As part of the Hallie's Cove development, 37.87 acres of parkland was dedicated in 2 separate parcels.  The only parkland improvement at that time was a 1,110-foot long by 10-foot wide concrete trail on the 25.3-acre northern parcel.  The developer has come in with a proposal to purchase additional land adjacent to the existing neighborhood and is extending one street.  The development requires two points of access and thus a connection through existing parkland is needed.  Staff worked with the developer to negotiate an appropriate amount of public benefit for the value of the ROW needed for the road extension as well as required parkland dedication improvement fees.  An amount of $30,000 will be provided to the city to purchase a small playscape unit (to be installed by the city) on the northern park parcel. Staff also negotiated a 1,000-foot long by 55-foot wide greenbelt on the back side of the new development which provides the opportunity for a trail connection between the two park parcels.  City staff will construct the trail in the future when the development is complete. GOAL Provide a secondary access for the development while gaining park improvements for public benefit in exchange for the taking of parkland. COMMUNITY BENEFIT The funding provided by the developer will be utilized to purchase a playscape unit to install in the northern park parcel and provide park amenities that would otherwise not be funded for several years. SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION The Parks & Recreation Advisory Board recommended approval of the concept agreement at their meeting on November 27, 2023. City staff recommends approval of Resolution 23-R-128 authorizing an agreement to dedicate right-of-way (ROW) in existing parkland for a secondary access for additional development in the Hallie's Cove subdivision in exchange for public park improvements. FISCAL IMPACT The land dedication requirement for the additional 18 lots is satisfied by the 1,000-foot long by 55-foot wide greenbelt connecting the two park parcels.  The park development fees in-lieu-of the 18 additional lots is $11,700.  The developer has agreed to provide a total of $30,000 to the city to cover the fees-in-lieu of and the value of the parkland taken for the ROW to provide a public benefit.

(S.Williams/B.James) BACKGROUND Staff made a presentation to City Council on September 19, 2023 regarding parking on unpaved surfaces. Council feedback was to create a committee to review the ordinance requirements. Staff is going to provide an overview of the focus and makeup of that committee.  Agenda No. 22.   CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM    City Council Meeting:December 5, 2023 Department:Public Works Subject:Street Sweeping Schedule Update (B.James/L.Busch) BACKGROUND Public Works is proposing to make some changes to the current street sweeping schedule. The published schedule indicates every street in the City will be swept monthly and on which day of the month each street will be swept. While this schedule has been in place for some time, the City has been unable to meet this goal for a number of years.  The City has two street sweeping machines, but as to be expected, they are down for maintenance and repair at times throughout the year. Two employees are scheduled to primarily drive the street sweepers, and they are off for vacation, holidays, illness, etc. The time of the year significantly impacts the time it takes to sweep the streets, with more leaves being picked up in the fall, which requires the sweepers to more frequently empty the bin on the sweeper. Additionally, with the growth of the City, each new subdivision being built means more streets that have to be swept.  After looking at some of Schertz' benchmark cities which generally sweep streets every 6 to 12 weeks, Public Works is proposing that each street will be swept quarterly. This standard is more consistent with the benchmark cities, provides for a better use of the City resources (the employees who drive the street sweepers can be assigned to do other duties as needed when not sweeping), and it allows for additional sweeping in the areas that might need it due to a lot of trees dropping leaves, being near a construction site where dirt and mud from construction traffic is creating issues, to clean up after water breaks, and accidents. Public Works will also take into consideration not to sweep on trash pickup days, which impacts the ability to sweep streets. Agenda No. 23.   CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM    City Council Meeting:December 5, 2023 Department:Executive Team Subject:Update on Agreement with The Chamber for Visitor's Guide/Business Directory (S.Williams/S.Gonzalez) BACKGROUND The City of Schertz (“the City”) has been in a Publicity & Tourism agreement with The Chamber since October 1, 2014. This initial agreement was for five years and expired September 30, 2019. The City then entered into its current agreement on September 11, 2019 which expires September 30, 2024. In this agreement the City pays The Chamber to (1) Produce the annual Visitor’s Guide/Business Directory; (2) Maintain Schertz business listing maintenance (to include C of O entry throughout the year and business listing maintenance); and, (3) Provide personnel to ensure operation of the Visitors Center (the City pays a portion of two Chamber staff people). The funding for this agreement has come from the City’s Hotel Occupancy Tax (“HOT”) Funds. However, because of the 2023 Texas Legislative session and S.B. 1420 – Hotel Occupancy Tax, there are strict guidelines of how HOT funds can be used. Section 3 of the Bill specifically states that “a municipality may not use municipal hotel occupancy tax revenue for a visitor information center under  Subsection (a)(1) to acquire a site for, construct, improve, enlarge, equip, repair, staff, operate, or maintain any part of a building or facility that is not primarily used to distribute or disseminate tourism-related information to tourists.” As The Chamber utilizes their staff people to do Chamber business, in addition to the work for the Visitor’s Guide/Business Directory, and after consultation with legal, there is an issue with the current agreement that needs to be addressed. Staff worked with The Chamber President to find a resolution for the problem. The solution was to terminate the existing agreement (provide 30 days written notice, in accordance with what is laid out in the agreement) and enter into a new service agreement. The termination notice was sent November 28, 2023 and the agreement between the parties will be terminated effective December 31, 2023. The new service agreement will be a contract with The Chamber to produce an annual Visitor Guide/Business Directory solely. It will go into effect January 1, 2024 and remain in effect through December 31, 2024. It will have the option to be renewed for two additional terms of one year each. The Guide will continue to be produced as it has been in its current form. Doing this will ensure that the City can use HOT Funds for this project, while abiding by State Law. The Visitor’s Center will still remain as it has been – the City just won’t supplement pay and The Chamber will absorb that cost. Chamber staff that are located there will continue to answer phones, interact with community residents and those seeking Schertz information and provide guides, relocation packets and other area media information.
