ORDINANCE; PROVIDING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE; AND
PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE (Final Reading)
Mayor Gutierrez recognized Assistant City Manager Brian James who introduced this
item stating at the April 12, 2022, City Council meeting, there was discussion about
the changes to the residential zoning districts to allow R -6 and R -7 zoning and the
density and lot size mix of in Planned Development Districts that utilize these
districts. Based on the Council recommendation, Staff has removed the proposed
amendments to Article 5 from the draft ordinance. As such, Staff is recommending
only changing the following sections:
Staff is proposing to amend Section 21.4.5 Post - Decision procedures, section B. The
section currently limits the ability of applicants to resubmit an application that has
been denied to no sooner than six months after the date of denial. The amendment
stipulates that limitation does not apply if the full board or commission that was
seated was not present. This change was prompted by some recent denials at BOA
where a lack of board members created a situation where a unanimous
recommendation for approval was needed. This seems unfair to the applicants and as
such a change was proposed.
As part of the design standards for residential development the parking section is
being amended to require two parking spaces per mailbox kiosk which must be
covered, but these can be provided in the right -of -way as long as additional paving is
provided so as not to be in the lane of traffic. Staff is amending the parkland
dedication section to stipulate the requirements for private open space in residential
subdivisions if a City park is not being provided. The curvilinear street requirement is
being added to the public works design manual.
In an effort to deal with the parking problem on Main Street that is occurring as a
result of vehicles being parked on unpaved areas due to some temporary or short term
issue and to deal with the excessive cars associated with auto repair uses being
parked on the street, staff is proposing two related changes. The first is to allow
temporary parking, of up to six months on an unpaved area. This would not push
vehicles and trailers onto the street during construction on a site or in unique
situations created by the pandemic, such as shortages of vehicle parts. The second
change is to not allow parking associated with an auto repair and service business
that is located on Main Street to occur in the street. Businesses need to appropriately
5
size their business - property, buildings, staffing to handle the volume of business
they anticipate and not rely on the public right -of -way for vehicle storage as this
creates a safety issue and negatively impacts other properties. Staff is
recommending amending Section 21.10.2 General Provisions to add a subsection L
that stipulates that parking and storage of vehicles associated with automobile repair
and services businesses on Main Street cannot occur in the street. Staff is also
recommending that section 21.89 Outdoor Display and Storage, subsection 4 be
amended to add an additional subsection D to allow staff to issue permits for
businesses to park vehicles on an unpaved area for up to six months. Staff will
revisit the residential changes.
As there were no comments from Council, Mayor Gutierrez called for a motion to
approve Ordinance No. 22 -5 -19 on first reading.
Moved by Councilmember Allison Heyward, seconded by Councilmember Jill
Whittaker to approve Ordinance No. 22 -5 -19 on first reading with the residential
changes pulled.

on the agenda. She was concerned about naming the road across I -35 Highway -
(extension -the Cibolo Valley Drive) after Mr. Hal Baldwin. Councilmember
Heyward suggested that this road be named in honor of Mr. Eric White, who gave
generously to the Schertz Library. In regard to honoring Mr. Hal Baldwin, there are
several places /events named in his honor. The City of Schertz Complex at 1.400
Schertz Parkway is named the Hal Baldwin Municipal Complex, a
pocket park- Crossvine, Golf Tournament, SSLGC Substation and Scholarship.
Mayor Pro -Tem Scagliola and Councilmember Davis suggested extending the name
Cibolo Valley Drive to the road on the other side. The TSAC (Transportation Safety
Advisory Committee) was suggested to be the board to research and recommend the
name of the street to City Council for approval. Assistant City Manager Brian James
stated TSAC will put this on their June agenda and bring a recommendation to City
Council.

CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
City Council May 10, 2022
Meeting:
Department: Public Works
Agenda No. 3.
Subject: Resolution No. 22 -R -47 - Consideration and/or action approving a Resolution by
the City Council of the City of Schertz, Texas authorizing expenditures not to
exceed $398,200.00 with Gerard Electric for the installation of generators and
related electrical upgrades at the Nacogdoches and Morning Drive Water
Facilities. (C. Kelm /S. Williams /S. McClelland)
BACKGROUND
After the snow storm of February 2021 when the electrical grid struggled to keep up with demand, it
became apparent that a key component of any water utility is backup power generation. City Council
identified a resilient water system as a key focus point when discussing how to allocate the funding
received as part of the American Rescue Plan (ARP). Category 5 allowed for the ARP funding to be
spent on Water, Sewer, and Broadband Infrastructure.
Also, because of the February 2021 snow storm, Senate Bill 3 was passed which mandated that water
utilities must be prepared and able to maintain a minimum 20 pounds per square inch (psi) of pressure to
all direct customers during a power outage lasting more than 24 hours caused by a natural disaster.
Based on the funding directive and the regulatory changes, City Staff moved forward with planning and
procuring two new generators for two main water sites that do not currently have backup power
generation onsite, the Nacogdoches Well Site and Morning Drive Booster Pump Station. Council
approved the purchase of the two generators from Holt Power Systems (Caterpillar) in January 2022
with Resolution 22 -R -12.
The purchase of the two generators for the Nacogdoches and Morning Drive water facilities was only
phase one of the larger generator project that staff has been working on. Phase two of the
project consists of reworking and updating the existing onsite electrical system at both Nacogdoches
and Morning Drive water facilities to accept the generators. This electrical upgrade phase is also
planned to use ARP funding as it is necessary to incorporate the generators in to the onsite systems. The
electrical work will also make improvements to the electrical systems at each site to make them more
resilient in emergency situations. Staff worked with M &S Engineering to design the generator
installation and electrical upgrades required at each site.
Staff is proposing to award the generator installation and electrical upgrades to Gerard Electric, who is
currently under contract with the City through an on -call agreement procured through a request for
proposal, open bid solicitation process and the fee schedule was approved by Council July 27, 2021,
Resolution 21 -R -75. Gerard Electric has extensive experience working at the Schertz water sites,
specifically the Nacogdoches site, which proved to be valuable during the design development and will
also make the electrical upgrades go smoother during installation. Gerard Electric is proposing to
complete the work for $133,000 for the Morning Site and $229,000 for the Nacogdoches Site for a total
of $362,000. Staff is recommending awarding the contract with a 10% contingency for a total not to
exceed amount of $398,200.
GOAL
The goal of this resolution is to gain approval from Council to proceed with the contract award for
Gerard Electric for the installation of generators and related electrical upgrades for the Nacogdoches
and Morning Drive water facilities.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
Providing onsite backup power at the City's water sites provides our water utility independence from
the electrical grid in times of emergencies where reliable power is not available. A reliable backup
permanent power system provides for a more efficient response when power failures occur and rental
generators become unavailable. The City's water system requires electricity to power pumps and
controls to distribute water to our customers safely and reliably.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution 22 -R -47 to award a contract to Gerard
Electric in an amount not to exceed $398,200 for the installation of generators and related electrical
upgrades for the Nacogdoches and Morning Drive water facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for the generators was approved by City Council with American Rescue Plan (ARP) tranche
one funding allocated to "Category 5: Investment in Water, Sewer, and Broadband Infrastructure ".
Council allocated $500,000 to generators from the ARP tranche one funds. The total cost to date for the
project is as follows:
Design: $30,000
Generator Purchase: $1.80,365 (22- R -1.2)
Generator Install and Related Electrical Work: $398,200 (Not -to- Exceed)
Total: $608,565
Funds from the Water Operation Fund will be used to cover any expenses over the $500,000 in ARP
Funds.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution 22 -R -47 to award a contract to Gerard
Electric in an amount not to exceed $398,200 for the installation of generators and related electrical
upgrades for the Nacogdoches and Morning Drive water facilities.

BACKGROUND
The City of Schertz and the City of Cibolo partnered to construct a new 0.5 mile (approx.) segment
of Cibolo Valley Drive between IH -35 and Old Wiederstein Road. As part of the project the road was
widened from 2 lanes to 4 lanes with added turn lanes and two medians that are currently empty with a
road base. A landscaping plan was created that includes low -water plants, drip irrigation system, and
decorative rock. The plan was reviewed by staff from both cities. Traffic control is also included in the
cost due to the need to shut down a lane on either side of the medians during installation. The project is
expected to take 12 days barring any weather delays.
GOAL
Approve Ordinance 22 -T -21 to authorize an adjustment to the fiscal year 2021 -2022 budget to
landscape the Cibolo Valley Drive medians.
COMMUNITY BENEFIT
The medians on Cibolo Valley Drive serve as a gateway to both cities - Schertz and Cibolo - and the
landscaping needs to reflect the aesthetic expected from our community.
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve Ordinance 22 -T -21.
FISCAL IMPACT
The contract cost for the landscaping, drip irrigation system, and traffic control is $88,172.99 and will
be funded out of Roadway Impact Fees collected for Zone 1. As of April 30, 2022 Zone 1 had $649,944
available for use on applicable projects.
