Mayor Newton introduced and welcomed Mayor for a Day London DeZurik.
WS-1 Overview of the audit process
John Manning, Patillo, Hill & Brown presented this item and briefed the City
Council.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Manning if the conversion from modified accrual to full
accrual is done once a year. Mr. Manning replied yes, the process to take it to full
accrual is done once a year at the end of the fiscal year.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Manning what is the City equivalent to monthly balance
sheet updates. Mr. Manning replied monthly financial reports are provided by staff.
Chief Financial Officer Brian Hogan added the monthly financial report is provided
versus a full blown financial statement, and this report provides up-to-date
information. Mayor Newton stated he would be recommending that City Council
focus harder on the monthly financial report. Mr. Manning added there are no
government standard requirements for City interim financials.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Manning what they are looking for with the fraud
questionnaires to Councilmembers. Mr. Manning replied they look to see if there is
City Council Minutes January 3, 2017
City of Colleyville Page 2
any information that a councilmember may be informally aware of that is not
reported otherwise.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Manning if they as auditors comment about efficiency of
city processes, etc. Mr. Manning replied we provide comments when something is
seen that is of material issue.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Manning if GFOA looks at the audit separately. Mr.
Manning replied Chief Financial Officer Brian Hogan will send a copy of the CAFR,
and GFOA sends this out to three or four viewers across the state, and they are
required to look at compliance independently of the City auditing firm.
WS-2 Discussion of expectations & RFP specifications for solid waste franchise
holder
Strategic Services Manager Adrienne Lothery presented this item and briefed the
City Council.
Mayor Newton asked staff if the increase in complaints coincides with the
sale/merge of the company. Manager Lothery replied staff could not tie the
complaints to the sale of the company; however, Progressive states they have
been mandated by the number of hours the drivers are allowed on the roads.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if Progressive is stating a DOT issue.
Manager Lothery replied it is a state requirement relative to how many hours the
trucks/drivers can be on the road.
Councilmember Lindamood stated he has received several complaints and stated
he does not believe the DOT requirements are the issue. He stated he wonders
why they would state that when he does not believe it to be true.
Councilmember Short asked staff when the larger recycle bins started being used.
Manager Lothery replied late 2011.
Councilmembers agreed to a new RFP for a possible new vendor.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if we can get an apples to apples
comparison to service.
Mayor Newton stated we want the level of service we currently have, and will
design the RFP using current service as a baseline. Councilmember Taylor agreed
and stated the complaints are usually about the Crud Cruiser filling up during the
Clean Sweep event.
City Council Minutes January 3, 2017
City of Colleyville Page 3
Councilmember Lindamood stated it may be beneficial to show the vendor how
much tonnage we have in recyclables. This will show them the revenues generated
from that, which may help our pricing.
Councilmember Coplen asked staff if Colleyville is one of the towns that does not
offer a senior discount. Manager Lothery replied correct.
Councilmember Short asked staff if it is common practice for the City’s waste
collector to collect yard waste from professional landscapers. Manager Lothery
replied Colleyville does not require the contractors to take their debris with them;
many contractors leave those bags for Progressive to collect. She stated this is
something we can look into.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff why that matters, especially since it comes from
the same lawn. Manager Lothery replied most contractors will generate more
waste than a typical homeowner.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the vendor ever reduces the fuel surcharge
when the fuel prices are lower. Manager Lothery replied our contract has three
ways that they can increase on an annual basis for fuel, CPI (consumer price
index), or tipping fees such as to the landfill. She stated Progressive has asked for
an increase twice, the last request was in 2014, with no increases in 2015 and
2016.
Councilmember Taylor stated being curios how other cities handle the fuel pricing
on the contract anniversary dates. Manager Lothery replied staff will look into that.
Councilmember Coplen asked staff if the contract is always five years. Manager
Lothery replied yes, but we did renegotiate before the five years was up, so there
was some overlap.
Councilmember Taylor stated originally we required the vendor to use new trucks,
and they gave us a favorable renewal, but it is important to have reliable trucks, if
we use a new vendor.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if citizens can call the City to schedule a
bulk pick up. Manager Lothery replied the citizen would call the vendor to schedule
the pickup.
Mayor Newton stated he would like to keep the same level of service, with the
approach of the minimum service standard, and a no volume limit (take all bags).
Councilmembers agreed.
Councilmember Short asked staff about the total revenue. Manager Lothery replied
she would have to get back to the City Council with that amount.
