Mayor Pro -Tem Cedric Edwards Councilmember Jim Fowler City Manager John Kessel Interim Executive Director Dudley Wait City Attorney Charles Zech Deputy City Secretary Donna Schmoekel at 6:00 p.m. Mayor Carpenter had Councilmember • Mayor's ,Task Force Introduction and Overview. Mayor Carpenter began by stating last summer he envisioned a `Task Force Committee' consisting of a member representative from each of the current city volunteer boards and commissions. This committee would meet and talk as a group about our community priorities and what we could and should do next and collaborate on what they felt we the city could focus on; what quality of life projects and improvements are of immediate concern to the community. Members were selected from each board and now this community involvement team has been meeting regularly for the past six months. 03 -31 -2015 Minutes Page -1- City Manager John Keseel passed out a handout to the attendees. He said stated this could be a reference for us to use and at the same time see the current policy values of the city. Mayor Carpenter recognized committee member Mr. Michael Dahle who had each member of the team stand and introduce themselves. Mr. Dahle said they wanted to look at community involvement, volunteer fair(s), utilization of websites, etc. One of the best ideas brought up was about getting kids involved. This already has happened through the Historical Committee with an Arts and Essay Contest which recently happened. Then the committee discussed what we I should do as a community in regard to having a quality of life environment, supporting our local economic engine, and providing core services to our residents, as well as how to keep a good balance in these three areas. They also talked about -the city budget aril its impact on the community. Remembering back to the 2010" bond projects, the general consensus was we got a little out of balance with concentrating more on quality of life projects. Staff update on potential Bond Measure Mr. Dahle stated that the proposal Schertz is an absolute must for us. meeting space. Two of our roadw( also priorities. Future land acqui never going to get cheaper. Basica 1103 2) FM 1 1 ) Fire Station traffic signals, etc.), and , 5) Land $20 million, a category,timate is as million 4) $2.0 million, and, 5) $1.0 n by city staff t build a third fire station in south This project could, also be expanded to include a vs (FM 1103 and Flit t 518) and infrastructure are on for, future parks" is also important as land is ,they recommend five projects in total: 1) FM c5: 3 4) Roadway Improvements (intersections, luisition. The total estimated budget is around follows: 1) $2.5 million, 2) $7.5 million 3) $7.0 11r. Kesel added that ,in talking this afternoon with facility master plan staff the fire station project would be Moser to $8 million if they want to include amenities such as a large meeting roam, EMS patient treatment room, police room, equipment and other soft costs. Mayor, Carpenter stated that the staff has already taken a look at our bond capacity which estimates we can issue this amount of debt, handle the payments on it, and remain in ,position that protects our bond rating; and we can do it without raising taxes. We can spend more or less if we want to but this $20 million is a threshold that says we can do this without raising taxes. So what are our priorities in using this amount of money? Mr. Keseel clarified that in regard to possible TxDOT assistance for road improvements on FM 1103 and FM 1518 they (TxDOT) have already verbally committed to a one to one match for FM 1103. This represents a $5 million investment. The worst scenario is they could come back and say we don't have any money. Then we would use what we have to maybe make turn lanes or install traffic 03 -31 -2015 Minutes Page - 2 - signals, widen the roadway, etc. That number needs to be what we can live with even if TxDOT doesn't help. There are about 4,000 plots already approved for development in southern Schertz which means about 10,000 new housing units. There will soon be another school (elementary) in this area. Currently there is not any room for passing on the roadway (FM 1518) and traffic quickly gets stacked up, resulting in impatient motorists who start taking chances in passing. It is an unsafe situation and is a high priority for us to fix even if TxDOT does not assist us. There are different reports always coming out regarding growth and Austin (Is') and San Antonio (5th) ate among the top 10 fastest growing cities. In fact, Travis, Hays, and Comal counties are the fastest growing counties in the entire nation right now. We are right ' ii the fastest growing traffic corridor in the nation right now and this means more schools cross roads, water, and sewage services are necessary. If we get behind it will be harder to catch up. Our current projections are going to be low and the pace of growth is- getting quicker. Councilmember Azzoz asked how FM 1518 would look if we did. not get any monetary assistance from anywhere else. Mt. Kessel stated he thinks `adequate' will not happen until we widen it to either four or sip lanes. However, if we make turn lane improvements it will make it more safe and ' effective. We really should do a design first with a portion of'oui money so that ewe, can deal more efficiently with TxDOT and their engineers. If right =of ways are nee, dd d, that takes two years to accomplish. Mr. Azzoz asked how soon,we,clould expect the 4,000 new homes in south Schertz. Mr. Kessel estimated it would be about 10 years; this includes Willow Grove, Rhine Valley; and Cross Vibe' developments. The Laurel Heights subdivision ber Fowler stated he was at The Crossvine subdivision today and was the number of homes that have already been sold and two families are already in residence. Councilmeiber Edwards expressed caution about how many more homes we should be bringing into the area in the future. We should also consider bringing in Joint Base San Antonio in our conversations on this subject and talk about securing their future. We need to consider our future economic engine. Our decisions need to be made for securing our future. Mr. Kessel referred everyone back to the handout and said all these projects are wanted and needed. He referenced roads, both new and existing (those that need to be rebuilt), as necessary for future development and handling the increased traffic 03 -31 -2015 Minutes Page - 3 - capacity. Councilmember Azzoz said we have to be careful so we don't run short on our budget. Costs are rising and you can add 12% to the cost for the day we get to the point of action. Mr. Kessel agreed that costs will continue to increase and we will have to consider that. Councilmember Edwards said interest rates are low now and we should strike while the iron is hot; meet with our financial advisors and see what they say. Mr. Kessel stated if we issue debt we need to be buying land, doing design, pursing a project and moving forward. Our limitations are what we have as our bond capacity without raising taxes and the community's tastes for tax increase. Staff capacity must also be considered for managing these projects and maintaining them (example, Fire Station #3). Mayor Carpenter stated if we go with $40 -50 are going to have to hire more people in customer service in our ability to maintain balance to manage. We, as a community, chi' faster action but it is a hefty undertaking: Co associated with maintaining a quality o life long as they know where the money is going and services; no one likes to raise taxes, but amenities; nothing is free. dollars, to spend on projects, we execute ,.on those or sacrifice y to day; operations; a delicate to raise taxes to allow us to take mber Azzoz siiid there is a price here and citizens ''won't mind as reed ,. to make sure we have staff ice you pay for access to certain Councilmember Thompson said he thinks it is all in how we talk to the citizens, not what we haven't,done but w4 t we have done. Secondly, in regard to acquisition of Land, has there been some discussion of potentially acquiring some of the land near Randolph to use s a buffer zone through parks? The task force members said no they, had not; they recommended city staff, council, and JBSA discuss this subject. Mr. Kesel said We are working with JBSA and they are not thinking about acquiring any land by imminent domain. The Air Force is working with us for what they need and what *,,reed. We need to focus on what is in front of us. Mr. Richard Dziewit stated we are trying to maintain this project activity to where taxes do not have to go up. Councilmember Azzoz said that FM 15 is something the public would probably go for because it is a structural improvement (roadways); FM 1518 is a very crucial road as is the Fire Station in south Schertz. Councilmember Fowler pointed out that we decided to get several smaller things (Animal Adoption Center, Skate Park, Ball Parks, Dog Park) done in a time frame as we could, and we did, except for the largest one (the swimming pool). If you had 03 -31 -2015 Minutes Page - 4 - done the pool first, we would not have these other things in place already. Mr. Kessel agreed there was some logic in doing it this way with what we could accomplish. We identified we would need $500,000 a year to operate the pool and our operating budget didn't allow it. It was easier to work on the other projects. While the pool is a delayed project it will come in on budget and not cause a tax increase. Ms. Simmons said we cannot control all the variables, we have to act and make decisions based on what we have now and as we go along in the future. Mr. Dahle added the people who are planning deal with this and male their best estimates and adapt accordingly. Discussion on potential Bond Election process Mayor Carpenter said a lot of what we are dis us'si- speed of implementation is largely what a bond co next step? Do we want this same task farce group do we want to expand it? We don't have a lot of t seated. They need time to discuss the merits; Ana come back with recommendations. We have to e needs to discuss how to seat a�committee. The current task force is currer. chair. Mr. Azzoz suggested alloy committee role due to their Councilmember- fowler asked eN also recommended leaving the c would call upon various subject e on )w, the :dollar amounts and the ttee would do. So what is our serve as the bond, committee or we need to get the committee or less, ratify the priorities and the election in August. Council le up of nine members with no designated current task force board move into the bond iveness : hd ` progress they have made. was willifig to serve; they replied yes. They ,e at its current size. They also stated they for June City Council Retreat. Mayor Carpenter rrrequested we out an item on the next available agenda to appoint the bond committee: Mr. Kessl laid this group will have to develop the details that have to be budgeted and determine the scope so the city attorney and city manager can write the actual language for council review in June. We also have a number of things to consider with the classification and compensation study that will be a significant issue to' work through in a short period of time. We have to prepare the budget. We, also have the facilities master plan to work with in its final stages. So the bond committee really needs to have some deliverable data in June. Mayor Carpenter asked if anyone from the community wanted to speak. No one did. He then asked the council to consider if this task force should become an ongoing group (a committee of the various committees) to facilitate even better communication between the different boards and groups. He requested this be on the next council agenda. Mr. Dziewit said he has found that this committee has already opened up communication between the different committees and also the schools and asked what each other needs. Mayor Carpenter said this group could also become an 03 -31 -2015 Minutes Page - 5 - important part of the annual budget process. We have the city departments already working together during the budget planning and we should probably have the boards, committees and commissions made up of the citizenry have this same opportunity. It is an alignment of leadership. This could be a very valuable long term approach to decide what we are going to do, who we are going to be, and how we are going to spend the people's money. Councilmember Azzoz thanked everyone for the work they contributed. Mayor Carpenter asked if anyone had changed their mind about speaking up. Mayor Carpenter recognized Mr. Glen Outlaw who stated he.felt' they should consider allowing a few others to join the group as the new bond committee. It could otherwise be construed as an inside group. Councilmember Azoz said he is not in favor of that because it would take a lot of time to educate them and bring them up to speed. At the end of the day, they will be bringing their recommendations to city council and it will be in their hands. Mr. Outlaw, said the group has done a gre4job, but the next problem is going to be selling these identified priorities to the public. ' His suggestion is not to undo what the group has already done but to assist in convincing the public these are the priorities. Mayor Carpenter suggested w think about this until next week because this group can do surveys or, otherwise interact with the public. Councilmember Fowler said there may be times they will need to bring in someone with some expertise to advise them and add input to their mission. Mr. Dahle said he also foresees the committee having a "env public meetings for more input.

Gaudreau) Mayor Carpenter' recognized Owner's Representative Phil Gaudreau who presented a quarterly update. He stated we went out and got a RFQ and RFP for a construction manager at risk on October 23, 2014, got responses back and interviewed the top three firms on January 7, 2015. . Since then we have been working with the firm to start to align the project with the budget and are within the $8 million targeted budget. Negotiations are continuing with the highest ranked firm. The next phase is to bring to council a pre- construction contract for pre - construction services. That will take us through 95% completion of the contract documents. Then we would get a final guaranteed maximum price which council would have to make a decision on. 04 -07 -2015 Minutes Page - 3 - Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Azzoz asked about the money we have spent so far out of the original bond issue. Mr. Gaudreau stated out of the bond issue we have about $5.5 million in construction dollars. The school district will furnish $1.65 million and the YMCA $2.0 million. Executive Director of Development Services Brian James came forward and stated the YMCA agreement is structured to where the city would issue $2 million in general obligation bonds and the YMCA would pay us $100,000 a year to pay that off. We will pay the YMCA to operate the recreation center, the indoor -pool and the outdoor pool. Right now we pay them $265,000 per year for the two existing outdoor pools plus the maintenance for three months out of the year. City Manger John Kessel stated the approximate total would be about $480,000 a year. Further discussion ensued regarding the day pass price versus the menilbership price and the building of locker rooms for school students and the public and the window of time the school students would utilize the facility ,fo�nractice and competitions. Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Thompson who asked if the schematic as designed so far conform to, the original intent of the bond issue in which we have an enclosed communit/competitittn. style pool. Mr. James replied yes it did. Was there anywhere in the bond language that excluded receiving monies from outside agencies and working with us to build an even better quality pool? Mr. James replied no, there was no exclusion., ,$o is everything we are proposing above board and in design with the original bond? 1Vlr. dames replied yes. Mayor Carpenter, recognized Councilmember Fowler who asked if the $100,000 that is being paid back to us by the YMCA, does that include interest. The answer was no. The other question is if we have a competition style unity pool, anytime there is a competition going on in the pool, no one else could use it? Mr. James said yes that is the case. We have to comply with the bond language, but we want to build one facility to meet the needs of the community and maximize the ability of that pool. Mayor Carpenter suggested it sounds like there is a desire to debate the merits of the project itself. At this point we should limit the discussion to the status of the design and 04 -07 -201.5 Minutes Page - 4 - the proposed construction manager at risk. If anyone wants to place on a future agenda an opportunity to debate the merits of the project let us do so in compliance of the open meetings act. Councilmember Edwards stated they could also put it on one of our planning sessions as well to discuss it at one of our strategic planning sessions. Mayor Carpenter agreed. • Discussion and direction regarding the use of hand held devices while driving and distracted driving generally. (Mayor /Council) Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Azzoz who, stated, be has shared many stories about cell phone use and he understands there is currently a bill pending in Austin to limit the use of cell phones and texting while driving: This has a purpose. If it saves one life it is worth it. There have been numerous news stories on TV recently. San Antonio passed an ordinance and no one freaked dut. He has observed there are not as many people using the phone in San Antonio as before`. He would like 's to do the same. Other cities are going to do it. We have to protect our young people. Vet are not taking anyone's rights away. Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Edwards who stated he believes the state does have an ordinance up for consideration for banning texting. However, it is not just texting that concerns him, but distr4clinn(s) in general while driving (putting on makeup, shaving, eating /drinking a beverage,, changing the radio station, etc.) He takes responsibility for his own actions. He doesn't think he needs the government in his car. If we don't have anything that says distracted driving at all then maybe we can consider this; but if the state is, already working on it, he doesn't see the reason to be redundant. When the law ) passed state wide, the San Antonio law will be null and void correct? Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Thompson who stated he would not assume because a vote failed: two weeks ago we are anti texting and driving. There are a variety of reasons that measure failed; vague language, duplicating efforts if a state measure passed, not wanting any more government involvement. Mayor Carpenter stated here is one of the things that was considered last time. He read some information from the (September 2010) Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the Highway Laws Data Institute which basically resulted in findings that hand held phone ban laws did not help reduce distracted driving accidents. He read also that about 3% of accidents are related to a phone and 14% are related to people having conversation with another person in the car. As an alternative, if this is something we want to pass an ordinance on, we consider a different approach. Perhaps rather than saying you can't 04 -07 -2015 Minutes Page - 5 - participate in an activity, but if you are caught causing an accident, then you will be punished more severely than if you not using such a device. He struggles with passing an ordinance when empirical data suggests it would be neutral or potentially make things worse. If we pass an ordinance that says you can't text and that person decides they are not going to stop texting and they have the device down below and they are texting looking down, that is scary. Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Azzoz who stated there are already about 27 states that already are banning texting and driving. Don't text and drive. It takes people's lives. Mayor Carpenter recognized Councilmember Fov how you enforce this law within our city. Chief F cell phone ban. This is simply the handheld use of ii make calls and text as long as you do it with a Bluf the phone or touch the phone.

Glasscock County EMS is a volunteer EMS that provides all EMS transports for the approximately 1,300 residents of the county. This small volunteer agency has, since its inception, relied on donations and fundraisers to provide ambulance services and has not charged their residents or visitors any user fees. With the influx of oil and gas companies their call volume has risen and is 04 -07 -201.5 Minutes Page - 10 - putting a new level of demand on their resources, to the point that their traditional funding can no longer sustain them. In an effort to begin this, their EMS Director contacted Allison Gorzell, EMS Billing Manager and myself to seek assistance in getting started. It was during this process, that the County asked Schertz EMS to not only assists them in getting started but to consider providing Billing Services on a go- forward basis. In conducting a multi -year review of their EMS activity, it was determined that Glasscock County EMS is currently responding to approximately twenty (20) ambulance requests a month. This is up from approximately ten (10) requests a month prior to their current influx of oil and gas exploration. In comparison, our EMS is currently responding to approximately 27 requests per day and transporting 19 patients per day. This volume better compares to the activity that Schertz EMS sees within t,ht,City Limits of Marion on a monthly basis.

Mayor Carpenter said he will be asking the city attorney for guidance on not forming a committee by this council until after the bond election.

Agenda No. 3 CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM City Council Meeting: April 14, 2015 Department: Fire Department Subject: Resolution No. 15 -R -30 - Authorization to lease - purchase two (2) new patient care monitor /defibrillators to replace aging equipment. The Fire Department first responds along with EMS to critical life threatening emergencies every day. On each and every one of these responses, the piece of equipment that is utilized from the moment we make contact with the patient until that contact is complete is our Patient Care Monitor /Defibrillator. This device, the Physio Control LifePak has the ability to monitor blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, oxygen and carbon dioxide levels in the blood, the patient's EKG rhythm, the 12 -lead EKG and, when needed, the ability to deliver therapeutic electricity to the patient to correct life threatening cardiac dysrhythmias. Our current devices, the LifePak 12, have been in service for over eleven years and have performed flawlessly. Unfortunately, these devices have exceeded their life span of ten years and due to technology changes and medical advancements; they will no longer be supported by Physio Control within the next eighteen months. The most up -to -date device is now the LifePak 15. The EMS Department lease purchased ten (10) of these devices in 2013 on a lease with a finance rate of 0% and will last sixty months. To maintain system consistency and allow both Fire and EMS crews to work with identical equipment on the most critical of patients, we desire to purchase these two devices that are identical to the EMS devices. Additionally, the EMS lease allows the City to purchase these two devices by addendum to the original EMS lease with their own sixty month term. Although the life span of these new monitors will be ten years, this lease will allow us to re- evaluate where technology and patient care is in five years at the expiration of the lease and then to make a decision to keep them for five additional years or make a decision to replace them at the conclusion of the lease. We are also planning to pre - purchase five years of the Physio Control maintenance and repair service plan on the monitors and finance that across the term of the lease. We currently have this plan in place on our current monitors, and due to their importance in patient care, we need to continue it to insure our devices are always properly functioning and calibrated appropriately. Traditionally, we have purchased this plan in two year increments through the normal budgeting process but placing this plan into the lease will provide additional savings over the five years. This plan covers on -site maintenance and repair, an annual service call to re- calibrate and test each device and replacement batteries as needed. By purchasing five years of this plan at the time of service, we get the annual inspection service call during year one where each device is City Council Memorandum Page 2 covered by warranty and then five full years of the plan after the warranty expires. By purchasing the entire plan up front, we save $150 per year per device and are insulated from any price increases in service plans throughout the first six years of the monitor's life. FISCAL IMPACT The fiscal impact for FY 2015 . will be $6,934.70. The amount for FY 2016 . through FY 2018 . will be $15,803.28. The lease will conclude in FY 2019 with a total payment of $7,866.18. The Fire Department budget for FY 2015 . includes a budgeted amount of $14,000 for this first year. In addition, the lease documents provide an out clause that terminates the lease if these funds are not appropriated at any time in the future for the life of the lease. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 15 -R -30 authorizing the City Manager to sign lease purchase agreements with U.S. Bank for the acquisition of two Physio Control LifePak 15 monitor /defibrillators.
