Subject: Resolution No. 19-R-157 - Consideration and /or action approving a Resolution
authorizing and approving the Building and Standards Commission By -Laws.
(B. James /L. Wood /E. Delgado)
On February 13, 2018 the City Council adopted Ordinance 17 -S -50, which created the Building and
Standards Commission. This commission was established in order to provide an appropriate outlet for
applicants requesting review of a building code item, appealing a decision of the Fire Marshal or
Building Official, take action on buildings found to be in violation of city ordinance or are a public
nuisance, to evaluate and provide recommendations on proposed amendments to the fire and building
codes, to act as an advisor to the Fire Chief and Building Official, and to make determinations on
alternative construction materials or methods.
Since the creation of the Building and Standards Commission there have been two meetings held. The
first of which, held on August 26, 2019, was utilized as an introduction for the new Commissioners and
staff and to serve as an informational meeting about the Building and Standards Commission. The
second meeting, held on October 28, 2019, was utilized to elect the Chair and Vice Chair of the
Building and Standards Commission. Additionally, at this meeting the proposed by -Laws were presented
by staff and the Commission made a unanimous recommendation of approval of by -laws.
The proposed by -laws have been created using the Building and Standards Commission adoption
ordinance, the Unified Development Code Article 3 Section 21.3.6.D. Additionally, the Planning and
Zoning Commission bylaws served as a template for the creation of the proposed bylaws in order to be
consistent with established by -laws that are currently being utilized.
GOAL
To approve the proposed Building and Standards Commission By -Laws.

the person having the floor, shall be permitted to enter into any discussion, either directly
or through the members of the Commission, unless requested or approved by the
presiding officer. No questions shall be asked of the Commission members, except
through the presiding officer. Responses to questions may be limited as required by State
law.
Personal and Slanderous Remarks. Any person making personal, impertinent, or
slanderous remarks, or who shall become boisterous, either while addressing the
Commission or otherwise while in attendance at a Commission meeting, may be
requested to leave the meeting, if after receiving a warning from the presiding officer a
person persists in disturbing the meeting, and may be removed from the meeting if
necessary for the conduct of the remainder of the meeting.
4 Public Hearings. After being recognized by the presiding officer, interested persons, or
their authorized representatives, may address the Commission with respect to the subject
matter of a public hearing being conducted. The presiding officer may establish
procedures at a public hearing to limit the amount of time (which, unless modified by the
presiding officer, shall be as set forth in Section E2 above) interested persons may speak,
subject to the Commission members' right to appeal the presiding officer's ruling
pursuant to Section F6. Subject to modification by the presiding officer, and subject to
the Commission members' right of appeal pursuant to Section F6, the normal order of a
public hearing is as follows: (i) the opening of the hearing and the establishment, if any,
of a modified public hearing procedure by the presiding officer; (ii) address to the
Commission by any interested person(s); (iii) discussion by the presiding officer and
Commission members, including requests for information from City staff or any person(s)
who addressed the Commission; and (iv) action by the Commission, if any is posted on
the agenda relating to the hearing.
Written Communications. Interested persons, or their authorized representatives, may
address the Commission by written communication in regard to any matter concerning
the City's business or over which the Commission has control at any time by direct mail
or by addressing the City Secretary, who shall, on the request of the writer, distribute
copies to the Commission members.
Hearing of Residents. There shall be included on the agenda of each Building and
Standards Commission meeting an item labeled "Hearing of Residents ". After being
recognized by the presiding officer, members of the public (giving precedence to residents
of the City) may address the Commission on items on or not on the agenda at that time,
providing they have completed the "Hearing of Residents" form, unless authorized by the
presiding officer. The form shall be made available to persons wishing to address the
Commission prior to the calling of the meeting to order and such completed form shall be
made available to the presiding officer prior to the calling of the meeting to order. The
persons signed up for "Hearing of Residents" must speak during the "Hearing of
Residents" portion of the meeting. Commission members and members of City staff may
not discuss unposted items nor take any action thereon other than to (1) make a
statement of factual information, (2) make a statement of existing City policy, or (3)
discuss placing the item on a future agenda. Persons speaking shall be subject to the time
limits set forth in Section E2, unless otherwise authorized by the presiding officer.
F. Motions and Meeting Procedures are as follows:

may make a motion on the particular subject of discussion or a procedural point as
permitted. A "Second" to the motion, if required, must be made by a Commission
member who did not make the motion within a reasonable but brief time period. The
presiding officer may not "Second" a motion. A motion or a "Second" merely impl ies that
the maker of the motion and the person who "Seconds" agree that the motion should
come before the meeting and not that he /she necessarily favors the motion. Without a
"Second ", if required, the motion dies.
2 Debate. Debate, if permitted, must be limited to the merits of the issue under discussion
as stated by the presiding officer.
3 Motion Procedures. There are twelve (12) types of motions in three (3) categories:
Meeting Conduct Motions (4 types), Disposition Motions (7 types), and Main Motions
(1 type) *. When any motion is pending, any motion listed above it on the chart below is
in order; those below it are out of order.

Unless not allowed
4 Point of Privilege. A point of privilege, sometimes called a point of personal privilege, is
a communication from a Commission member to the presiding officer, drawing urgent
attention to a need for personal accommodation. For example, the point may relate to
an inability to see or hear, a matter of comfort, a matter of requested convenience, or an
overlooked right of privilege that should have been accorded to the Commission
member(s). In essence, it is a call to the presiding officer for the purpose of assuring a
Commission member's convenient and appropriate participation in the meeting. Because
of its urgent nature, a point of privilege can interrupt a speaker. Because it is addressed
to the attention of and action by the presiding officer, it cannot be debated or amended,
and no vote is required.
Point of Procedure or Order. A point of procedure, sometimes called a point of order, is
a question addressed to the presiding officer, no seconding is required, and either
inquiring into the manner of conducting business or raising a question about the propriety
of a particular procedure. It is simply an inquiry and is resolved by correction or
clarification by the presiding officer. A point of procedure can interrupt a speaker.
Because it is addressed to the attention of and action by the presiding officer, a second is
not required, and it cannot be debated or amended, and no vote is taken.
To Appeal a Ruling. Decisions or rulings of the presiding officer are final on questions of
procedure, except that any ruling by the presiding officer's ruling can be appealed to a
vote of the Commission. Whenever a Commission member questions the
appropriateness or essential fairness of the presiding officer, that member can appeal the
ruling to a vote of the meeting. If, however, a motion is out of order as a matter of law
(not a proper subject of the meeting, improper notice given, etc.), the presiding officer's
ruling cannot be appealed. A motion to appeal cannot interrupt a speaker. To prevent
frivolous appeals, a second is required. The motion is subject to debate (which should be
brief) and, by its nature, is not amendable. To overrule a procedural decision of the
presiding officer, an affirmative vote of four (4) Commission members is required.
To Recess. A motion to recess requests a brief interruption of the meeting's business,
usually so that an ancillary matter can be addressed, or simply to provide a needed break.
Unless stated in the motion, the period of recess is decided by the presiding officer. If
necessary, a recess can extend the meeting from one day to another, subject to State law.
The motion cannot interrupt a speaker, and a second is required. It is debatable, it can
be amended, and an affirmative vote of four (4) Commission members is required.
8 To Withdraw. Only the maker of the motion can make a motion to withdraw it. It is
essentially a communication to the presiding officer that the maker is withdrawing his /her
proposal. This is the maker's privilege; thus, it does not require a second. Because the
withdrawal motion obviates discussion, it can interrupt a speaker. In addition, because
another Commission member later can make a similar motion, a withdrawal motion is not
subject to debate, amendment, or vote. The presiding officer should simply state that
the motion is withdrawn, and the meeting should proceed with a new treatment of the
issue at hand —or a new issue.
9 To Postpone or Extend. These motions may arise from a need for further information, a
matter of convenience, or for any other reason that will enable the Commission to deal
with the issue more effectively during the same meeting or at a later time. Unless
otherwise specifically provided in the motion itself, a postponed or extension motion can
be renewed at a later appropriate time during the meeting or, if properly posted, at a
later meeting. This motion cannot interrupt a speaker. It requires a second, it is
debatable, and it is amendable (particularly as to postponement, timing), and an
affirmative vote of four (4) Commission members is required.
10 To Refer. A motion to refer is typically used to submit an issue to a committee, usually
for study leading to a subsequent recommendation. Because it ordinarily disposes the
motion for purposes of the current meeting, a motion to refer is subject to the same rules
that apply to a main motion. (See Section F14). This motion cannot interrupt a speaker,
and a second is required. It is debatable and amendable, and an affirmative vote of -four
(4) Commission members is required.
11 To Amend. A motion to amend proposes a change in the wording of a motion then under
consideration. When a motion to amend is pending and an amendment to the
amendment is proposed, the presiding officer should focus discussion on the latest
amendment, resolve that question, then proceed to the first amendment before
continuing discussion on the main motion. Votes on amendments are thus in reverse
order of the sequence in which they are proposed. A motion to amend cannot interrupt
a speaker. It requires a second, and it is debatable and amendable. An affirmative vote
of four (4) Commission members is required for approval of the amendment. Note that
State law may restrict amendments to proposals that are required to be set forth in the
notice of the meeting.
12 To Limit or Close Debate or "Call the Question ". Because the extent to which an issue is
discussed rests primarily with discretion of the presiding officer, it is the presiding officer
who carries the burden of ensuring that adequate time and discussion are given to
differing points of view. A motion to limit or close debate is therefore an overruling of
the presiding officer's determination. A motion to close debate is the same as a motion
to "call the question ". Because this motion affects the most fundamental right of any
Commission member, the right to speak one's views, it is the only procedural motion that
requires an affirmative vote of two - thirds of participants voting.
13 To Count the Vote. A motion to count the vote should be limited to those circumstances
where the convenient hearing of "yeas" and "nays" cannot clearly resolve the issue. It
represents the right of a Commission member to have a vote demonstrated by count.
That count can be directed by the presiding officer either as a showing of hands or a
standing of voting members while the vote is recorded. Upon completion of the count,
the presiding officer announces the result —and final disposition of the issue voted upon.
This motion cannot interrupt a speaker. It requires a second; it is neither debatable nor
amendable; and, because of the importance of the matter, it should be considered
mandatory; thus, no vote is required.
14 Motion to Reconsider. Allows a main motion to be brought back before the Commission
for consideration. May be made only at the meeting at which the vote to be reconsidered
was taken. It maybe made by any member of the Commission. Any Commission member
may second it. It can be made while any other question is pending, even if another
member has the floor. It requires a majority vote to pass. A motion may only be
reconsidered twice. If the reconsideration is moved while another subject is before the
Commission, it cannot interrupt the pending business, but, as soon as the pending
business has been disposed of the motion has the preference over all other main motions
and general business of the agenda. In such a case the presiding officer does not state
the question on the reconsideration until the immediately pending business is completed.
15 Motion to Rescind. The motion to rescind is a main motion without any privilege, may
only be made when there is nothing else before the Commission and must be made at
the same meeting at which the subject matter of the motion was considered, and it
requires a two - thirds vote of the commission members. It cannot be made if a motion to
reconsider has been previously made. The motion to rescind can be applied to votes on
all main motions with the following exceptions: votes cannot be rescinded after
something has been done as a result of that vote that the Commission cannot undo; or,
where a resignation has been acted upon, or one has been appointed to, or expel led from,
a committee or office, and was present or was officially notified. In the case of expulsion,
the only way to reverse the action afterwards is to restore the person to the committee
or office, which requires the same preliminary steps and vote as is required forthe original
appointment.
16 To Take Action; Main Motions. Main motions state proposed policy or action on a
substantive issue being considered by the Commission. As such, the motion is an initial
call to take particular action. Although lowest in precedence among all motions, main
motions are clearly the most important: through their content, the business decisions of
the Commission are determined. A main motion can be made only when a prior main
motion has been disposed of. It cannot interrupt a speaker; a second is required; it is
debatable and amendable; and an affirmative vote of four (4) Commission members is
required unless a greater vote is prescribed by the Charter or State law.
17 Effect of Abstentions; action on required Abstentions; Effect of non - required Abstentions.
The following rules shall apply when a Commission Member abstains from voting on an
item:
a. When the Commission Member is Legally Obligated to Abstain from Voting.
When a Commission Member is legally obligated to abstain from voting pursuant
to Texas Local Government Code Chapter 171, a local ordinance or the City
Charter then the Commission Member shall leave the dais and exit City Council
Chambers until such time as the debate and vote on the item has been concluded.
Staff shall record that the Commission Member left the room and abstained from
the vote in the official minutes and there shall be no other effect.
b. When the Commission Member Has No Legal Obligation to Abstain from Voting.
When a Commission Member has no legal obligation to abstain from voting then
an abstention shall be recorded in the minutes as an abstention and shall
procedurally be treated as a "no" vote.

goal is to have four (4) reserve ambulances to allow our Fleet Department time to "down" each
ambulance for preventative maintenance and safety checks. Mileage for these ambulances range from
34,000 to over 180,000 miles:
F Ambulance Year Mileage as of 11/1/19

Meeting:
Department: Executive Team
Subject: Resolution No. 19-R-1 59 - Consideration and/or action approving a Resolution
authorizing a request for a Schertz Main Street Area Historic Preservation
Grant for 802 Main Street. (B. James)
In January of 2015, City Council approved Resolution 15-R-03 establishing the
Historical Incentive Program for the Main Street Area in order to facilitate the
preservation of historic structures to promote the economic vitality of the Main
Street area as a tourist destination, the City of Schertz is offering incentives that
will serve to improve existing properties and businesses within this area. Council
subsequently modified the program via Resolution 16-R-37 to eliminate the
requirement that properties be designated as Landmark Properties and to slightly
expand the area eligible for the grant. The resolution established details of the
program including eligibility requirements, and draft funding agreement.
The program provides matching funds up to $20,000 per property to go towards the cost of renovations. The aim of the
program is to protect, enhance, and preserve the historic resources and landmarks which represent distinctive element of the
City of Schertz' historic, architectural, economic, cultural, and social heritage by providing property owners an incentive for
protecting their property; stabilize and improve property values; foster civic pride in the beauty and accomplishments of the
past, and to promote the use of the historic structures for the culture, education and general welfare of residents, and
strengthen the economy of the city by protecting and enhancing the attractiveness of the Main Street area to residents and
visitors, as well as provide support and stimulus to businesses.
The owner of the property at 802 Main Street, Cal-For Properties, LLC, is applying
for a grant for proposed work to the structure. The owner is at this time proposing
to renovate the structure to use as a single family residence due to site constraints —
this renovation includes major systems, electrical and plumbing, as well as general
renovations to make the structure usable — flooring, drywall, bathroom fixtures,
counters, doors etc. He has provided an attached estimate of cost of work, broken
down by materials and labor. The estimate is under the maximum amount for
which the City will provide a matching grant. The grant is a 1:1 grant, with the
City providing up to $17,531.19. If the owner spends less than the estimated
$35,062.38 the amount of the match from the City would be reduced. The match
from the City is paid after the work is complete, though the monies can be paid in
increments after elements of the project are complete.
GOAL
Promote the history and culture of the City of Schertz to tourists and residents.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
Recognize structures of significance to the community's past.
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 19 -R -159 approving the Schertz Main
Street Area Preservation Incentive Grant for up to $17,531.19 subject to the
applicant entering into the incentive agreement with the City.
FISCAL IMPACT
Up to $17,531.19 from the Hotel Occupancy Tax Funds.

Agenda No. 11.
Subject: Ordinance No. 19 -T -29 - Consideration and /or action approving an Ordinance by the
City Council of the City of Schertz, Texas authorizing an adjustment to the FY
2019 -20 Budget to encumber unused funds from FY 2018 -19, repealing all
ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict with this ordinance; and providing
an effective date. (M. Browne /J. Walters)First reading.
With Ordinance 19 -T -23 the City Council of the City of Schertz approved the annual budget for FY
2019 -20. Staff is proposing to amend the budget to encumber unused funds from FY 2018 -19 for use in
FY 2019 -20.
Unspent funds at the end of the fiscal year are added to the fund balance. Due to time restrictions on
equipment delivery and project delays some departments weren't able to spend the funds allocated to
them in the previous fiscal year and those funds were add to the fund balance instead. In order to use
these funds, staff recommends council approve a budget adjustment to move these funds out of the fund
balance to be spent this fiscal year instead. This action will prevent the current year's budget being used
up on purchases and projects left over from last year.
The items requested to encumber from the previous fiscal year are as follows:
The Fire Department is requesting to encumber from reserves $7,937 for 5 vehicle repeaters and cable.
These are items needed in conjunction with the opening of the new fire station.
The Parks Department is requesting to encumber from reserves $50,000 for the Senior Center parking
lot renovation and $16,089 for maintenance to the Veteran's Memorial. The parking lot enhancements
will provide better layout for parking and the Veteran's Memorial needs regular maintenance for the
remembrance pavers.
The Streets Department is requesting to encumber from reserves $20,514 for the North Schertz
Sidewalk projects and $30,555.00 for the Mid Schertz Sidewalks projects. The City has begun sidwalk
maintenance and extensions. The processes for area selection, engineering, and construction bid award
pushed these projects in FY 2019 -20.
The Facility Maintenance Department is requesting to encumber from reserves $16,515 for the
replacement of the YMCA air conditioner unit. The City is responsiblef or structural repair including
air conditioners on the Recreation Center leased to the YMCA. The funding was identified at the end of
FY 2018 -19 but the work invoices didn't arrive until FY 2019 -20.
The Human Resources Department is requesting to encumber from reserves $50,000 for Wellness
Programs and $15,000 to set up insurance provider links to the Human Resources Management system.
These amounts were granted to the City by Blue Cross Blue Shield in FY 2018 -19 and is proposed to be
used in FY 2019 -20.
To complete these purchases and projects without impacting the current year budget, the budget needs
to be increased by the stated amounts.
GOAL
To adjust the budget to provide funding to complete all fo the anticipated FY 2019 -20 projects and the
remaining FY 2018 -19 projects.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
N/A
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the adjustment to complete the remaining purchases and projects from FY 2018 -19.
FISCAL IMPACT
This adjustment will decrease the projected fund balance in the General Fund by $206,61.0. These funds
were original expected to be spent in FY 2018 -19 and by encumbering them for FY 2019 -20 it will not
have an impact on the City's 5 year plan.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 19 -T -29 on first reading to encumber unused funds from FY
2018 -19 for use in FY 2019 -20.

CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
City Council December 3, 2019
Meeting:
Department: Human Resources
Subject: Resolution 19 -R -166- Vacation Leave -Workshop presentation, discussion and possible action on Resolution
19 -R -166 approving an Employee Policy related to Vacation Leave. (C. Kelm /J. Kurz)
BACKGROUND
The City's current vacation leave policy was approved in 2008. Many tenets outlined in the policy are outdated and inconsistent with current
practice. In particular, the vacation accrual rates for Fire must be updated to be in compliance with Local Government Code Chapter 142,
Section 0013, which requires Police and Fire department members to receive 15 vacation days each year beginning after one year of
employment. Currently, the City is only providing 9.6 days, or 144 hours, of vacation to Fire department members with 2+ years tenure. To
be compliant, the number of hours needs to be increased to 180. Vacation accruals for the Police Department are currently in compliance
with the LGC.
Additionally, 142.0013(e) of the Local Government Code, which requires that a firefighter receive the same number of days of vacation as
any other municipal employee. The City is currently only providing firefighters with 11+ years tenure with 16 days, or 192 hours, of
vacation leave while other municipal employees with 11+ years are receiving 20 days. To be compliant, the number of hours needs to be
increased to 240 hours.
The City made an adjustment to leave accruals for Fire and Police Department members in October of 2016 with the understanding the
adjustment would be compliant with the statute. Unfortunately, the adjustment made was not fully in compliance with the statute.
The attached draft policy seeks to remove outdated or irrelevant information or procedures and revise accrual rates in accordance with
Chapter 142.0013 as outlined above. It would be effective immediately (with Council approval).
A redlined and clean version of the policy are attached, but the main policy points are highlighted below for quick reference:
Leave Accrual Start Date:
Current: Vacation accrual for regular eligible employees begins on their date of employment in a full -time position (i.e., at the end of an
employee's probationary period, the employee will have accrued vacation leave back to the date of original employment, the beginning of
the employee's probationary period).
This language may be read that a part-time employee who converts to full -time would begin accruing vacation leave on the date that they
were originally hired, as a part-time employee. However, part-time employees are not eligible to receive or accrue vacation leave.
Proposed: Vacation accrual for eligible employees begins on their date of employment in a full -time position.
Leave Requests:
Current: Requires approval by City Manager, and specifies an exact number of days in advance the request must be submitted.
Proposed: Leave requests will be approved by Department Heads (or designees). Timeframes for leave requests have been removed to
afford flexibility to both employees and supervisors.

Code.

4 A day for a 12 -hour shift employee is defined as 8 hours.
GOAL
Update policy to reflect current practices and comply with Local Govt Code Chapter 142.0013.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
Update policy to reflect current practices and comply with Local Govt Code Chapter 142.0013.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends approval of the vacation policy as proposed.
Additionally, since the City became aware of the statuary requirements for vacation accruals for Fire personnel in 2016, City staff, in
conjunction with legal, recommend crediting leave hours owed dating back to October 2016, as well as, adopting the leave accrual rates as
proposed in the revised policy.
Staff also recommends adopting the same accrual rates for EMS as for Fire.
The updated leave accruals have been approved by legal.
FISCAL IMPACT
The adjustment to retroactively (since 2016) credit leave to Fire employees would be a total of 4,576.73 hours, with an estimated value of
$125,631 (cost only realized if employees separate from City). Staff recommends removing the annual cap for affected firefighters for 5
years to allow them the opportunity to utilize these hours. If all of these hours are able to be used during that time, actual cost realized could
be $0 if no positions would be backfilled when the leave is used.
The financial impact of adopting the same accrual rate for the EMS Department as Fire would be an increase of $51,000 in vacation leave
annually (again, only realized if employee separates from City).
The impact of revising the # of hours that a Firefighter with 11+ years tenure receives is an additional 1,560 hours each year (again, cost
only realized if employees separate from City).

Subject: Presentation on City Owned Properties in Freeway Manor and Proposal for
Future Property Acquisition. (B. James)
For a number of years, the City acquired property in the Freeway Manor Subdivision. The City has not
purchased any of the properties for nearly 10 years. Freeway Manor is a paper subdivision, so called
because although the plat was filed, there is not infrastructure - streets, water, sewer to support
development of all the lots. The plat was filed in 1958. Freeway Manor is located on the south side of
IH -35, just east of the Belmont Park residential subdivision. The area is zoned GB - General Business.
There are a handful of residential structures on the property that have been there for a long time.
The City began acquiring the properties given the lack of adequate infrastructure that made it difficult
for any of the many owners to develop their property. While there are a few people, like the City that
own numerous lots, most people own just one or two, which makes it difficult to justify the cost of
providing infrastructure. As such the City began acquiring properties when approached by their owners
or as properties came up at foreclosure sales.
Since it is has been some time since the City has acquired any properties in this area, staff is seeking
direction about restarting the effort to acquire properties as they come up for sale.

Subject: American Society of Radiologic Technologists Grant Award. (B. James/M.
Uhlhorn)
Earlier this year, the American Society of Radiologic Technologists (ASRT) announced a grant
opportunity for public libraries. The grant was for $500.00 to be used for adult and youth books and
materials focusing on radiology and related science and medical topics. Library staff applied for the
grant and received notice in August of the award. Materials were purchased in September. All materials
have been processed and were placed on display during the first week of November in honor of National
Radiologic Technology Week, along with displays of various X -rays and facts about the history of
imaging and radiology.
In all, the Library was able to purchase 33 books and puzzles for the collection with the grant money.

City Council Meeting: December 3, 2019 .
Agenda No. 16.
Department: Finance
Subject: Correction on the Water Meter Update Workshop. (B. James /J. Walters)
The City Council held a Regular City Council meeting on October 22, 2019.
Previous information on San Antonio's water rates were incorrect and not comparable to the City's
situation. The rates presented were only their stated "Water and Sewer" rates, however they also have a
"Water Supply Fee" that is also charged for every 1,000 gallons used by their customers.
This fee is to provide for the costs of securing additional water infrastructure to meet growing needs.
Schertz includes those estimated costs in their base fee. Therefore, for a true comparison the water
supply fee should be included when comparing rates between the two cities.
With this new information, San Antonio residents will have a lower water bill up to around 8,000
gallons. Usage above that amount will result in Lower bills for Schertz residents.
Attached is a comparison between the rates of the two cities with the water supply fee included.

December Major Project Update

City Council Meeting: December 3, 2019
Department: City Manager
Subject: Update on major projects in
progress /CIP, City View, Utility
Meter Swap Out, and Civic Rec
Software
Background
This is the monthly update on large capital projects that are in progress or in the planning
process. This update is being provided so Council will be up to date on the progress of these
large projects. If Council desires more information on any project or on projects not on this
list, please reach out to staff and that information will be provided.
Drainage Projects:
East Dietz Creek Desilting: No change from November update. Final completion was
given on 94% of the project where revegetation has been established. C -3 Environmental
will need to remove some accumulated silt on the Borgfeld Road end of the channel prior
to final acceptance.
Facilities Proiects:
1. Fire Station 3: The Fire Department has moved into the new station. This was done in
order to cut down on response time. Byrne is working thru the punch list and is scheduled
to be complete with the punch list December 6, 2019.
2. Civic Center A/V Upgrades: No change from November update. In September of 2019, .
City Council approved purchases of equipment with Summit Integration Systems for the
A/V upgrades for the Civic Center (Ballroom and Bluebonnet Hall). Staff added a $20,000
owner controlled contingency for a total not to exceed amount of $235,150. After this was
approved, Civic Center and IT staff met with Summit to discuss the touch panel details
(how we want it to look when it's being used) and to finalize the dates for the installation.
Currently, installation is set for the end of December /first couple weeks of January with
the intent of minimizing disruption to any previously scheduled events. Additionally, staff
worked with Facilities and Purchasing to secure an electrician for the electrical work
needed. Projected electrical cost is $8,040.
Water Projects:
1. Water Meter Change Out: As of November 4, 2019, approximately 14,940 meters have
been changed out (of approximately 14,984 meters). Replacement of meters started in areas
with the most manual reads by staff. Staff is currently estimating a December 2019
completion date for all meter change outs.
2. FM 1103 Utility Relocation Project: D. Guerra continues to work on installing new
waterline. Two offsets around proposed TxDOT storm inlets were completed this month.
Work was slowed due to the presence of dry utilities that had to be worked around. Work
will continue down FM 1103 towards IH -35. The project is expected to be completed in
late January of 2020.
Engineering Projects:
1. 2018 Street Preservation and Maintenance/Rehabilitation Project: Schedule I of the
project was awarded to D & S Concrete Contractors. Schedule I will reconstruct Schertz
Parkway form Maske Rd to Woodland Oaks with a new concrete pavement section and
will reconstruct Tri- County Parkway from I -35 to Corridor Parkway with new concrete
pavement. The contract documents are in the process of being executed. Staff is re-
working the bid package to remove the Schedule I information from the package so
Schedule II and Schedule III can be re -bid.
2. Corbett Elevated Water Storage Tank: The pedestal wall construction was completed
this month. Work on the pedestal dome has begun and is scheduled to be poured in the
middle of December. Work on Waterline A, which replaces the existing waterline on
Schaefer Road, has been installed, but not tested from approximately Hillbrook Drive to
FM 1518. The project is expected to be completed July of 2020.
3. Woman Hollering Creek Wastewater Interceptor Main and Lift Station:
CobbFendley continues to work on final plan revisions, the lift station plat document, the
lift station site plan, and the bid documents. City Staff and CobbFendley continue to
negotiate with property owners to acquire necessary easements for the project.
Negotiations continue with property owners via email correspondence and face to face
meetings. Counteroffer Response Letters have been sent out to all remaining property
owners as well as some Final Offer Letters. No new easements were acquired this month
so the total number of easements acquired remains at 15 out of a total of 21.
4. Pedestrian Routes and Bike Lanes Project: Final design submission to TxDOT is
waiting on final environmental clearance. Ford Engineering has completed the 100% plan
revisions as well as the project manual to be submitted to TxDOT for approval. City Staff
continues to work to acquire the remaining ROW necessary for the project on E. Live Oak
Road. The letting date for the project has been pushed back by TxDOT and is currently set
at April of 2020.
TxDOT Roadway Projects:
1. FM 1103 Improvement Project: No change from November update. Utility relocations
continue (including electric, communications, gas, water, and wastewater). Schertz Public
Works is working to relocate water and wastewater lines that conflict with the planned
roadway and drainage improvements (see FM 1103 Utility Relocation Project update). The
target let date for a construction contract is June of 2020.
2. FM 1518 Improvement Project: TxDOT continues acquiring property needed for the
expansion project. Approximately half of 140 parcels needed for right of way have been
acquired. TxDOT also continues to work on value- engineering project. The first utility
coordination meeting was held on November 18, 2019, and was attended by City of Schertz
Engineering and Public Works Staff. Staff is working to determine the scope of necessary
utility relocations in the FM 1518 project corridor. The TxDOT project is currently
scheduled for letting in September of 2022; construction may begin as early as January of
2023.
3. I -35 Operational Improvements Project (FM 2252 to Schwab Road): No change from
November update. Work continues on frontage road shoulders and at VIA park and ride
lots. Scheduled work during the coming weeks includes concrete traffic barriers and
retaining wall work. Lane closures and traffic rerouting will occur as necessary. TxDOT
and its contractors will keep City Staff informed of detours and closures so that the City
can assist in disseminating the information to the public in a timely fashion. The current
schedule includes a project completion in December of 2020.
4. I -35 NEX (I -410 South to FM 1103): No change from November update. A full
description of the project to expand I -35 from 1410 South to FM 1103 can be found by
searching keywords "I -35 from I -410" at TxDOT.gov. Schematic exhibits of the proposed
improvements are available on that website. Public Works and Engineering staff are
participating in utility coordination meetings with TxDOT and its contractor regarding
relocations that may need to take place in advance of or in conjunction with the roadway
construction. Construction is expected to begin in spring of 2021 and take 4 to 5 years to
complete.
Planning and Community Development Projects:
1. CityView Permitting and Development Software: We are in the final stages of data
collection and have been meeting with department representatives to wrap up the
collection process. City staff and CityView have agreed on a phased approach for
submitting our three modules which will be submitted in the following order Code
Enforcement, Planning and Permitting /Inspections. Once the data collection is
complete, the CityView Team will configure the software and return it to the City for
User Acceptance Testing. At this time staff has submitted the Code Enforcement
portion to CityView for configuration. Staff is currently finalizing the data collection
portion for the Planning module with submittal to CityView coming in the upcoming
month /s. After the Planning module has been submitted, staff will then focus on the
Permitting /Inspections portion. Once the configured software is tested, we will move
to staff user training and then go live with the software. A tentative project completion
schedule will be determined once configuration of the software has been completed.
Information Technology Projects:
1. Civic Rec Scheduling System: Parks Dept is moving forward with data gathering in
advance of configuring system. Training will be scheduled once configuration documents
