City Council Meeting: Date: January S, 2019
Department: Police Department
Subject: Resolution No. 19 -R -04 A Resolution by
the City Council of Schertz authorizing
purchases up to $80,000 with WatchGuard
Video and up to $105,000 with Motorola for
radios.
BACKGROUND
In December of 2018 the Police Department purchased seven (7) 2019 Ford Explorers PIU vehicles to
add to or replace Patrol vehicles. The vehicle and Officer will need to be equipped with Motorola
APX6000 and APX4500 two -way communication radios and WatchGuard vehicle and body cameras.
These Motorola radios allow the Officers to have reliable communication both inside and outside of the
Patrol vehicles. The cost of the Motorola radios approximately $61,000. The WatchGuard camera
system provides a much more comprehensive way to accurately record, catalog and store Police
interactions and events. The WatchGuard system is designed for the "in -car" video to work in
combination with body worn cameras. The cost of the WatchGuard cameras is approximately $45,000.
Motorola items are being procured via the HGAC purchasing cooperative. WatchGuard is being procured
as a Sole Source purchase as they are the only place we can get this equipment and it is important to have
all of the equipment throughout the city the same.
So far this fiscal year the City has made purchases of just over $28,000 with Motorola and $1.0,000 with
WatchGuard. Last fiscal year, Council authorized purchases from Motorola, of those, approximately
$1.0,000 was not encumbered last fiscal year and is anticipated to be this fiscal year. There is still the
purchase of additional WatchGuard systems, funded in part from the recently donated $27,000 from
Santikos. As such, Staff is seeking approval for purchases up to $1.05,000 with Motorola and $80,000
with WatchGuard. The slightly higher amounts allow for additional small purchases with each company.
GOAL
To obtain authorization from City Council to purchase Motorola radios in an amount not to exceed
$105,000 and WatchGuard recording systems in an amount not to exceed $80,000. This amounts
will allow for the planned purchase and any small unforeseen expenditures that occasionally occurs
with such projects.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
Superior communication equipment for Fire, Police, and EMS services. This radio equipment is used
when responding to and mitigating emergency calls. The new recording system will benefit the public
by producing more evidence to aid in prosecution and giving more perspective of our Officers
interactions with the public and our Citizens.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
In order to allow the immediate purchases of the additional communication equipment up to $65,000
recording equipment up to $50,000 as well as anticipated future purchases, Staff is seeking approval for
purchases up to $105,000 with Motorola and $80,000 with WatchGuard.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds for this project have been budgeted through the General Fund.

City Council Meeting: January 8, 2019
Department: Planning & Community Development
Subject: Ordinance No. 19 -K -01 — Consideration
and /or action approving an Ordinance
releasing and terminating a vehicular non -
access easement on Lots 6 and 8, Block 1 of
the Enterprise Industrial Park Subdivision.
(First Reading)
The property owner of Lot 6, Block 1 has been working with the City's Engineering and Economic
Development Departments to construct an access point to the property at the intersection of
Lookout Road and Schertz Parkway. This access point will cross the large drainage channel that
runs along the front of the property parallel to Lookout Road. In order to construct this access
point, a platted one foot (1') wide vehicle non - access easement that runs along the front of the
property adjacent to Lookout Road, must be released. The vehicle non- access easement was
established by subdivision plat in 2008 and crosses Lots 6 and 8. Rather than releasing the
easement just across Lot 6, staff is proposing to release it across both :Lot 6 and Lot 8. Staff has
reached out to the owner of Lot 8 to make them aware that the non - access easement is being
released.
Vehicular non - access easements are generally used to control or restrict access onto certain
roadways. As a result of updates to the Public Works Specifications manual related to roadway
access requirements, the one foot (1') wide vehicle non - access easement is no longer needed to
control or restrict access in this subdivision.
Goal
The goal of this ordinance is to release and terminate the vehicular non- access easement that is
located along the front of Lots 6 and 8, Block 1 of the Enterprise Industrial Park Subdivision
adjacent to Lookout Road.
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. The release of the vehicular non - access easement will allow the
Cit�yyncilf Memorandumf
,Wage 2
affected property owners construct an additional access point onto Lookout Road at the
intersection of Lookout Road and Schertz Parkway.
Summary of Recommended Action
Approval of Ordinance 19 -K -01 authorizing the release and termination of a vehicular non - access
easement along the front of Lots 6 and 8, Block 1 of the Enterprise Industrial Park Subdivision,
will remove an encumbrance and provide the affected property owners the ability to construct an
additional access point onto Lookout Road at the intersection of Lookout Road and Schertz
Parkway. The City Planning and Engineering Departments have reviewed the request and found
the existing one foot (1') wide vehicular non - access easement to no longer be needed due to
changes regarding access restrictions provided in the Public Works Specifications Manual which
limit and control the number, size and spacing of roadway access points onto City owned and
maintained roadways.
Release of this easement will not be detrimental to the public welfare and construction of the new
proposed drive and associated intersection improvements will be beneficial to the City's roadway
system.
FISCAL IMPACT
None
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of ordinance no. 19-K-0 1.

CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
City Council Meeting: January 8, 2018
Department:
Subject:
City Management /Finance
Ordinance No. 19 -T -03 - An ordinance by
the City Council of the City of Schertz,
Texas authorizing an adjustment to the FY
2018 -19 Budget to provide additional
funding for the Corbett Elevated Water Tank
Project, repealing all ordinances or parts of
ordinances in conflict with this ordinance;
and providing an effective date; First
reading
Currently, $4,046,162.70 ($3,148,917.24 from Capital Recover and $897,245.46 from Water
and Sewer Operating Funds) has been budgeted for the Corbett Elevated Water Tank project.
Staff now has construction bids for the Corbett Elevated Water Tank and needs to allocate an
additional $1.5 million to the project ($1,375,000 from Capital :Recovery Water and
$125,000 from the Water & Sewer Operating Funds). With the construction bids, final
project costs are now $5,502,182.54. The additional $1.5 million allows for a $43,980.16
non - construction contingency.
Not all of the distribution mains are eligible to use Capital Recovery Funds. Capital
Recovery Impact fees can only be used to create new capacity so the system can provide
more water while Water & Sewer Operating Funds are used to replace existing mains. The
section of the distribution mains along Schaefer Road is already in place but will be replaced
with a larger pipe. The replacement costs for this section must come from Water & Sewer
Operating Funds, while the cost of increasing the size of the line can be from Capital
Recovery. The existing distribution main on Schaefer .Road accounts for approximately 25%
of the final capacity of the new distribution main, therefore, 25% of the contracted cost, or
$1.25,000, will come from Water & Sewer Operating Funds.
Summary of Recommended Action
Approval of Ordinance 19 -T -03 approving the budget adjustment.
FISCAL IMPACT
This ordinance will allocate an additional $1.5 million to the Corbett Elevated Tank project;
$1,375,000 from Capital Recovery Water and $125,000 from the Water & Sewer Operating
Funds. As of September 30, 2018, the Capital Recovery Water has a fund balance of
$6,608,113.78 and the Water & Sewer Operating Funds has an available cash and investment
balance for projects of $8,927,702. After the transfer, Capital Recovery Water would have
$5,233,113 remaining while the Water & Sewer Operating Fund would have $8,802,702.

evaluations of procedures and processes with subject matter experts from all of the
departments who issue permits or participate in community development including
Engineering, Public Works, Fire, Code Enforcement, and Planning and Community
Development. There have been some delays with data collection so on December 17th a
city staff member from the Planning Division was assigned to work on CityView full time
until the data collection is complete to keep the implementation schedule on track. Once
this step is complete the CityView Team will configure the software based on the data
collected and then return it to the City for User Acceptance Testing. Once the configured
software is tested and any bugs or issues are worked through, we will move into staff user
training and then go live with the software.

BACKGROUND
Workshop A
January 8, 2019
Finance /Human Resources
Workshop Regarding ADP Payroll
and HR Services
In November 2018, the City's payroll clerk of 15 years announced her retirement. Staff took
this opportunity to consider various outsourcing options to ensure the payroll process was as
efficient and cost effective as possible. Requirements include an employee self - service
portal, seamlessly uploading benefit deduction information, automatically computing
longevity and certification pay, easy integration with a time keeping software, and a third -
party administrator to process payroll.
In FY 2017 -18, staff had been authorized to review and implement a new time keeping
system to improve tracking of time and replace manual entry of Fire and EMS time sheets for
payroll. The new system would also need to provide employees the ability to see exact times
they arrived and left work as well as allow for multiple types of work schedules and overtime
calculations.
During the review of potential outsourcing companies, ADP was the only firm to meet all
criteria for payroll and time keeping with their all in one system.
ADP also can provide Human Resources and Benefits system currently provided by CivicHR
and Incode. This system would integrate into the payroll /time keeping and would reduce data
entry into multiple systems. ADP also integrates with the City's insurance provider to
provide automatic insurance updates based on open enrollment and life events.
Any payroll functions not provided by the ADP system can be redistributed to other existing
staff members with little change in workload due to the additional efficiencies.
FISCAL IMPACT
Overall the City has budgeted for these services $85,500 in FY 2018 -19. ADP can provide all
the required services for $75,000 for an annual savings of $10,500.
For the first year, the City would still have to continue to operate CivicHR and Incode until
ADP's new system is running and verified accurate. Those additional costs will be offset by
the one -time payment from Blue Cross Blue Shield to develop an employee self - service
portal which will be developed as part of the ADP platform. This contribution form :Blue
Cross Blue Shield would turn the $13,000 over budget into a $2,000 net savings in year 1.
No formal action is required. Before staff begins the contract and budget adjustment
processes, staff is looking for direction from Council.

City Council Meeting: January 8, 2019
Department: Parks & Recreation
Subject: Workshop — Parks & Recreation Annual Events
Discussion
The Events Division (formerly of Public Affairs) merged with the Parks & Recreation Department
at the start of the FY 18 -19 budget year. During the budget process there was direction from
council to assess department programs and budgets, evaluate how and why we do things, and look
at potential ways to cut costs. Staff performed an assessment of special events and has proposed
changes to the following events: Wilenchik's Walk for Life, Schertz Sweetheart Court, SchertzQ,
and Holidazzle (formerly Festival of Angels.)
Throughout the assessment staff looked at understanding our target market for each event, and the
return on investment for the event. We evaluated attendance, cost per person, sense of
community /history, and inclusiveness of each event. Staff also discussed trends in the industry
and is working on more sophisticated operational standards and safety procedures (contracting
where necessary, emergency management, crowd & traffic control, etc.)
In the event industry it also well known that special events have life cycles and staff considered
what those may be for each event as well as evaluated some hard questions:
f Do we want to continue events in the same format?
f How do we reach more of our population?
f How do we get the biggest bang for our buck?
f How do we maintain the sense of community with a growing population?
Staff is presenting this workshop to council to host a discussion and gather feedback as to how we
move forward with city events in the future.
