CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
City Council
Meeting:January 20, 2026
Department:Planning & Community Development
Subject:
Resolution 26-R-012 - Authorizing the 11th and 12th amendments to the
Interlocal Agreement with the Alamo Area Council of Governments
(AACOG) to provide funding for transit services in the City of Schertz.
(B.James/L.Wood/W.Willingham)
BACKGROUND
Schertz' residents benefit from access to ART (Alamo Regional Transit), a demand-response transit
service operated by the Alamo Area Council of Governments (AACOG). In 2013, Schertz and
AACOG entered into an interlocal agreement, allowing Schertz to receive ART services from
AACOG. Users of ART benefit from the service by receiving curb-to-curb transportation service that
takes passengers directly to their desired destinations, making it possible for users to be independent
and improve their quality of life. This interlocal agreement with AACOG is amended annually to
establish Schertz' financial contribution for the year. A match of $42,666 is required for
both Fiscal Year 2025 and Fiscal Year 2026. The contribution amount has been unchanged since
Fiscal Year 2020.
In 2022, in addition to the demand response service, ART began service of a fixed route serving
Schertz and Cibolo known as the El Sereno Bus Route. This route runs once a week every Tuesday
with operations between 8:00am and 4:00pm and is free to ride.
In Fiscal Year 2024, demand-response rides from Schertz amounted to 2,797 total trips, while in
Fiscal Year 2025, this total changed to 2,224 total trips for a decrease of 20% in ridership between
years. Ridership is primarily comprised of seniors above the age of 60, and primarily is used for
medical or nutrition purposes. 92% of rides between both years completed on-time service

CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
City Council
Meeting:January 20, 2026
Department:Engineering
Subject:Resolution 26-R-016 - Authorizing participation in the Guadalupe
County Master Drainage Plan under the Texas Water Development
Board Flood Infrastructure Fund
program (B.James/K.Woodlee/T.Harris)
BACKGROUND
Guadalupe County is moving forward with the development of a Countywide Master Drainage Plan
under the Texas Water Development Board’s (TWDB) Flood Infrastructure Fund (FIF) program,
Flood Management Evaluation (FME) category. As part of the application and project development
requirements under 31 TAC §361.10 and the SFY 2024–2025 FIF Intended Use Plan (IUP),
Guadalupe County must notify and coordinate with all eligible political subdivisions within the
project watershed area, including cities, water districts, river authorities, and other units of local
government.
Purpose of the Project
The Master Drainage Plan will evaluate countywide flood risks, identify priority mitigation
improvements, update hydrologic and hydraulic data, and develop a unified strategy for long-term
resilience across the county and its incorporated communities. TWDB requires demonstration that all
affected political subdivisions have been given the opportunity to participate in the planning process.
This resolution ensures that the City of Schertz is included in planning efforts associated with the
Flood Infrastructure Funded program. This participation does not create any obligation for funding,
but allows Guadalupe County to include the city in receiving benefits from the drainage study. In
order to meet the FME criteria, Guadalupe County must document that:
All eligible political subdivisions have been notified;
Each has been given an opportunity to participate; and
Participating entities have formally acknowledged involvement in the planning effort.
The adoption of this resolution will satisfy that requirement and ensure the city is included in data
collection, model development, project identification, and stakeholder coordination.
GOAL
The goal of Resolution 26-R-016 is to ensure the City of Schertz is included in data collection, model
development, project identification, and stakeholder coordination as it relates to the development of
the Guadalupe County Master Drainage Plan.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
The City of Schertz, located in Guadalupe county, will be included in data collection, model
The City of Schertz, located in Guadalupe county, will be included in data collection, model
development, project identification and stakeholder coordination for flood infrastructure and flood
management projects.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 26-R-016.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no funding obligation associated with this resolution. Guadalupe County is collaborating with
the Texas Water Development Board to receive funding under their Flood Infrastructure Fund
Program.

CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
City Council
Meeting:January 20, 2026
Department:Fire Department
Subject:Resolution 26-R-009 - Authorizing a service agreement with On Duty
Health for comprehensive fire department physical evaluations
(S.Williams/G.Rodgers)
BACKGROUND
The City of Schertz requested proposals for annual physical evaluations for Fire personnel. One
proposal was received in response to the solicitation. Upon evaluation of the pricing and
qualifications, City staff has determined that sole respondent, On Duty Health is qualified to be
provide the requested services. The proposed agreement is attached to this agenda item.
GOAL
The goal of this service agreement is to ensure that personnel within the Fire Department are
medically and physically capable of performing the high-risk, "athlete" demands of firefighting
without endangering themselves, their team, or the public. With the recent release of NFPA 1580
(2025 Edition), which consolidates several previous standards (including NFPA 1582), the focus has
shifted toward a more holistic "Health and Wellness" model rather than just a "Pass/Fail" medical
exam.
Primary Goals of the Physical:
Early Detection of Life-Threatening Conditions
Cancer Screening
Job Readiness
Injury Prevention
NFPA 1580 Compliance & Consolidation: (NFPA 1580 introduced a major shift in how
cardiorespiratory fitness is measured. Instead of the old "12 METs" (one-size-fits-all) threshold, the
2025 standard uses age and gender-adjusted percentiles (the 50th percentile of the general
population). This change makes the physical more scientifically accurate across a diverse workforce.)
NFPA 1582 (Medical Programs)
NFPA 1583 (Fitness Programs)
NFPA 1584 (Rehab/Decontamination)
Regulatory & Legal Compliance:
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134
Workers' Compensation
Liability Mitigation
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
Reliable Emergency Response:
Reliable Emergency Response:
The community relies on the Fire Department to be ready 24/7. If a Firefighter suffers a
medical emergency during a fire or a rescue, they transition from being a rescuer to a victim.
This effectively halts the emergency operation, requiring other crews to divert their attention to
their fallen colleague rather than the original emergency. Annual physicals ensure the people
responding to a 911 call are physically capable of completing the task.
Fiscal Responsibility and Taxpayer Savings: (While there is cost associated with this service
agreement, it is a significant cost-saving measure for the city)
Reduced Workers' Comp Claims - Early detection of a condition is significantly cheaper than
paying for a catastrophic medical event or permanent disability claim.
Presumptive Laws - Comprehensive physicals provide the City with "baseline data" to manage
high-cost liabilities.
Lower Overtime Costs - Identifying health issues early reduces long-term sick leave, keeping
more personnel on the trucks and reducing the need to pay "fill-in" overtime to cover vacant
shifts.
Protection of Training Investments: (It costs tens of thousands of dollars to recruit, hire, and train a
single firefighter)
Retention
Knowledge Retention
Continuity of Service:
Mid-sized departments can be crippled if 2-3 members are out on long-term medical leave
simultaneously. By proactively managing health through a provider like On Duty Health, the
City strives to ensure it maintains the minimum staffing levels required to keep fire stations
open and response times low.
Alignment with "Health Community" Initiatives:
When an organization prioritizes the health and well-being of its fire department members, it
deomstrates the city is a "proactive employer of choice," which helps in recruiting high quality
candidates to serve the community.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
By authorizing this agreement, we are ensuring that when a citizen calls 911, the responders who
arrive are not only well-trained but medically fit to perform life-saving work. This is a proactive
measure that protects our residents, reduces our long-term financial liability, and ensure our
Firefighters, remain on the job and healthy.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the services provided within this agreement are approximately $42,000 per fiscal
year, with a total contract amount not to exceed $250,000 over the 5-year period. Additional expenses
may be incurred on an as-needed basis due to physical examination discovery for each individual.
The agreement shall become effective upon the date of the final signature and remain in effect
through January 31, 2029, with the option to review for two (2) additional terms of one (1) year each
unless terminated.
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager to execute a service agreement with On Duty Health for comprehensive

A RESOLUTION BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS AUTHORIZING A SERVICE

MEDICAL EVALUATIONS

specialized physicals serves a vital public purpose by ensuring a fit and health first responder
workforce.

Exhibit “C”
EVIDENCE OF INSURANCE
MASTER TERMS AND CONDITIONS
These Master Terms and Conditions (“MTC”) govern all use of the Services from On Duty Health
(“Company”) by the “Customer”, as defined in the Proposal/Purchase Order (collectively the “Parties” and
individually a “Party”).
1. Services. The Company shall provide the Customer’s employees with certain services (“Services”).
Services consist of those listed in the “Estimate” or “Proposal.”
2. Fee. The Customer shall pay the Company the fee set forth in the Proposal/Purchase Order for each
Fitness Assessment. The Customer shall remit payment to the Company for all Services within
thirty (30) days of receipt of the invoice. A 2% late fee charge will be assessed after 30 days, and
for each month thereafter that the payment is delayed. Each annual round of assessments will be
billed at the completion of that round. The pricing is considered “locked,” unless the number of
members to be seen decreases by 15%.
3. Termination of Contract. The Customer may terminate the Contract, in whole or in part, with or
without cause, without penalty, with ninety (90) days written notice. After this point, the
Customer may not terminate the Purchase Order and shall be responsible for the fees for all
Services performed, as described in the Purchase Order. The ninety (90) day termination period
will reset each year on the day immediately following the completion of that year’s assessments.
The Company also reserves the right to cancel the Contract, with or without cause, without
penalty, with ninety (90) days written notice.
4. Contract Period. This proposal and agreement constitute a three (3) year contract, with the option to
extend for two (2), one (1) year terms, for a total of five (5) potential years. Pricing is considered
locked for a three (3) year period, with a five percent (5%) increase planned for years four (4) and
five (5), respectively. The period begins as of the signing of this Contract and runs through the
completion of the 5th annual round of assessments.
5. Employee List & Schedule. At least six (6) weeks before the Company performs the Services each year,
the Customer shall provide the Company with a list of all employees that will receive the Services
(based off of the “Roster Template” provided by the Company). At least two (2) weeks before the
Company performs the Services each year, the Customer shall provide the Company with a
Schedule of which employees will be seen at what date and time (based off of the “Schedule
Template” provided by the Company).
6. Modification and Cancellation of Proposal/Estimate. The Customer may cancel or modify the expected
number of patients to be seen, in whole or in part, without penalty prior to six (6) weeks out
from the date set for receiving the Services (Assessments Start Date). After this point,
the Customer may not modify or cancel the expected number of patients to be seen
(numbers may be increased if needed, but not decreased), and shall be responsible for the
fees for all Services described in the Proposal/Estimate. If an employee is unable to
attend due to sickness, injury, or other absence, they may reschedule a makeup appointment. This
appointment must occur within two hundred (200) days of the initially scheduled "missed"
appointment. The makeup appointment location will occur at another location, where the onsite
team is located and has availability.
7. Credits. If Customer has an employee(s) who will miss the assessments due to sickness or other
reasons, the Customer will hold a “credit” for that employee for 200 days, and may work with
Company to schedule them for their assessments at another time and place.
8. Equipment. The Company agrees to provide all equipment and supplies necessary for the assessments,
EXCEPT for a treadmill. The Customer agrees to provide a properly functioning treadmill
Customer
Initial
_______________
(with variable speed and variable incline) and adequate space for the assessments to be
conducted.
9. Tardiness. All patients are encouraged to arrive for their appointed/assigned time slot at least 15
minutes prior to their start time, WITH all patient intake (online check-in) information filled out.
Patients who arrive for their appointment later than 15 minutes after their start time will be
turned away and urged to re-schedule (unless they were tardy due to a call….at On Duty Health,
we respect the call). As is the case with any medical practice, it is important for us to keep our
schedule running on time. If a patient is going to be tardy, please substitute another patient from
later in the schedule if possible. If you need assistance with scheduling, please call our office at
512-655-3578.
10. Location Reciprocity. The Customer agrees to allow a small number of members from other
departments, if any, to be seen on their premises. This allows for make-up physicals if a member

Subject:Workshop on disposition of city-owned property at 1298 Borgfeld Rd
(former Animal Adoption Center) (B.James/D.Hardin)
BACKGROUND
Prior to its current location at 800 Community Circle, the City of Schertz’s Animal Adoption Center
was located at 1298 Borgfeld Road. Staff explored different options to reuse the building, but
ultimately recommend again that given the costs of renovation and repair as well as the limited
functionality of the building. On February 6, 2024, City Council approved the demolition of
unoccupied City buildings, which included the structures located at 1298 Borgfeld Road.
Staff is seeking direction from City Council regarding the disposition of the now-vacant property.
The City has no need for this property and there is a cost to maintaining it - mowing, securing the
building, etc. Staff is recommending that the City sell the property. State law provides a few ways the
City can sell the property and if that is the direction of Council, staff will work to determine the best
way to put it out for sale.

our application. There was a lot of competition for the funding in the program – 139 applicants. Having
$90 million for the program meant they could only fund 10 of the projects submitted. The feedback
received, plus the work to develop the DEAAG application earlier this year will allow us to refine our
next DCIP application and be more competitive. While the DCIP program has been formally
authorized by Congress, the funding amount has not been established yet. Some of the project
categories have changed from last year, with “quality of life” now becoming the high scoring project
type (which our project fits into). Because of these changes and the funding not being identified yet,
we don’t know when the next project call will occur. We expect it to be this Summer, simil ar to last
year.

Project Update: No change from last month. The schematic plans and the environmental clearance are
still underway. TxDOT has formally applied to the Alamo Area Metropolitan Planning Organization
(AAMPO) for construction funding. While TxDOT has applied for funding, this doesn’t mean the
funding will be available and construction starting soon. By applying for funding now, it gets the
project “on the list” for AAMPO to consider and does not mean construction will occur soon. While
funding is being considered by AAMPO, the environmental clearance and design efforts will continue,
and more public meetings will be held to help refine the project design.
