Staff presented an overview of the Spatial Reorganization Plan at a Joint City Council and Library Board Meeting on July 9, 2009. During the worksession, staff sought to receive City Council direction on the conceptual idea of developing the second floor as a program and children's area and reconfiguring existing space on the first floor to enhance current uses. Following the presentations and discussion, the City Council requested an estimate of additional operational costs for the development of the Library's second floor prior to consideration of approval to proceed with engaging an architect to develop a schematic design for the library's Spatial Reorganization Plan. Staff has developed a 10 year estimate of additional operational costs for the library's second floor. In developing the additional operational cost model, staffing levels, janitorial and utility costs were evaluated. The estimated costs were based on the library's current level of operations, 48 hours per week, existing programming options, and the assumption that new and evolving services will be provided through ongoing evaluation and reallocation of existing resources. If the project is approved, the total additional estimated cost for first year operations of the developed second floor is $72,227, and is anticipated during FY 2011. The most significant cost for development of the second floor is personnel ($68,181). Additional staffing projections include adding four part-time library assistant positions, which is equal to two full-time equivalences (FTE). This would increase the current Youth Services staffing level from two full-time equivalences (FTE) to four full-time equivalences City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 7/31/2009 Agenda Briefing Continued (FTE). The process for determining the recommended staffing level included the following considerations: aminimal staffing level for the current level of 48 hours a week of service hours; an adequate staffing level to meet the needs of current programming options, predictable staff hours unavailable (standard vacations); unpredictable staff hours unavailable (sick time); and flexibility in scheduling staff to meet fluctuating Library service demands. In determining estimated operational costs for janitorial services, 24 a week was added to the existing level of service at a cost of $4,046. The utility analysis concluded that costs would remain about the same as the library is currently using the second floor for programming approximately four to six hours a day on weekdays and on some Saturdays. Additionally, several energy cost saving measures are currently being implemented, which will offset the minimal additional electrical usage costs that would be incurred with the development of the second floor. The attached financial projection of estimated additional operational costs for development of the library's second floor indicates this enhancement is 10% of the library's current operating budget. Library services to the residents of Colleyville would be enhanced at a minimal cost and a potential source of funding could be the Colleyville Economic Development Corporation annual operating budget. Additionally, progress would be made in meeting the needs identified by the community during the development of the library's Spatial Reorganization Plan. These included: additional space for basic services; space to accommodate growth in collections; zone activities; create a "third" place in the community; generous program and meeting space; a technology area; and leverage staff to highest and best use. The first phase of the library's Spatial Reorganization Plan includes the development of the second floor and reconfiguring the first floor to enhance existing uses. Staff recommends engaging an architectural firm to develop a schematic design for the Library's Spatial Reorganization Plan. This design will provide the information necessary to establish an actual cost estimate for design and construction. The estimated schematic design phase fee is $8,614 and funding is available in the FY 2009 General Fund budget.

We will audit the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, which collectively comprise the basic financial statements of the City of Colleyville as of and for the year ended September 30, 2009. Accounting standards generally accepted in the United States provide for certain required supplementary information (RSI), such as Inanagelment's discussion and analysis (MD&A), to accompany the City of Colleyville's basic financial statements. As part of our engagement, we will apply certain limited procedures to t11e City of Colleyville's RSI. These limited procedures will consist principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation, which management is responsible for affirming to us in its representation letter. Unless we encounter problems with the presentation of the RSI or with procedures relating to it, we will disclaim an opinion on it. The following RSI is required by generally accepted accounting principles and will be subjected to certain limited procedures, but will not be audited: 1) Management's Discussion and Analysis. Supplementary information other than RSI also accompanies the City of Colleyville's basic financial statements. We will subject the following supplementary information to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial statements and will provide an opinion on it in relation to the basic financial statements: 1) Combining and individual non-major fund financial statements. The following additional information accompanying the basic financial statements will not be subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements, and for which our auditor's report will disclaim an opinion. 1) Introductory section. 2) Statistical section. 401 WEST HIGHWAY 6 ^ P. 0.

Our audit will be conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards established by the Auditing Standards Board (United States) and the standards for financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and will include tests of the accounting records of the City of Colleyville and other procedures we consider necessary to enable us to express such opinions. If our opinions on the financial statements are other than unqualified, we will fully discuss the reasons with you in advance. If, for any reason, we are unable to complete the audit or are unable to form or have not formed opinions, we may decline to express opinions or to issue a report as a result of this engagement. We will also provide a report (that does not include an opinion) on internal control related to the financial statements and compliance with laws, regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a material effect on the financial statements as required by Government Auditing Standards. The report on internal control and compliance will include a statement that the report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the body or individuals charged with governance, others within the entity, and specific legislative or regulatory bodies and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. If during our audit we become aware that the City of Colleyville is subject to an audit requirement that is not encompassed in the terms of this engagement, we will communicate to management and those charged with governance that an audit in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards and the standards for financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards may not satisfy the relevant legal, regulatory, or contractual requirements. Management Responsibilities Management is responsible for the basic financial statements and all accompanying information as well as all representations contained therein. As part of the audit, we will prepare a draft of your financial statements and related notes. You are responsible for making all management decisions and perfonning all management functions relating to the financial statements and related notes and for accepting full responsibility for such decisions. You will be required to acknowledge in the management representation letter that you have reviewed and approved the financial statements and related notes prior to their issuance and have accepted responsibility for them. Further, you are required to designate an individual with suitable skill, knowledge, or experience to oversee any nonaudit services we provide and for evaluating the adequacy and results of those services and accepting responsibility for them. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls, including monitoring ongoing activities; for the selection and application of accounting principles; and for the fair presentation in the financial statements of the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Colleyville and the respective City of Colleyville July 23, 2009 Page 3 changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Management is also responsible for making all financial records and related information available to us and for the accuracy and completeness of that information. Your responsibilities include adjusting the financial statements to correct material misstatements and for confirming to us in the representation letter that the effects of any uncorrected misstatements aggregated by us during the current engagement and pertaining to the latest period presented are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a whole. You are responsible for the design and implementation of programs and controls to prevent and detect fraud, and for informing us about all known or suspected fraud affecting the government involving (1) management, (2) employees who have significant roles in internal control, and (3) others where the fraud or illegal acts could have a material effect on the financial statements. Your responsibilities include informing us of your knowledge of any allegations of fraud or suspected fraud affecting the government received in communications from employees, former employees, grantors, regulators, or others. In addition, you are responsible for identifying and ensuring that the entity complies with applicable laws, regulations, contracts, agreements, and grants for taking timely and appropriate steps to remedy any fraud, illegal acts, violations of contracts or grant agreements, or abuse that we may report. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a process for tracking the status of audit findings and recommendations. Management is also responsible for identifying for us previous audits or other engagements or studies related to the objectives discussed in the Audit Objectives section.of this letter. This responsibility includes relaying to us corrective actions taken to address significant findings and recommendations resulting from those audits or other engagements or studies. You are also responsible for providing management's views on our current findings, conclusions, and recommendations, as well as your planned corrective actions. Audit Procedures-General An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; therefore, our audit will involve judgment about the number of transactions to be examined and the areas to be tested. We will plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable rather than absolute assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether fiom (1) errors, (2) fraudulent financial reporting, (3) misappropriation of assets, or (4) violations of laws or governmental regulations that are attributable to the entity or to acts by management or employees acting on behalf of the entity. Because the determination of abuse is subjective, Go>>ernment Auditing Standards do not expect auditors to provide reasonable assurance of detecting abuse. Because an audit is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute assurance and because we will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that material misstatements may exist and not be detected by us. In addition, an audit is not designed to detect immaterial misstatements or violations of laws or governmental regulations that do not have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, we will inform you of any material errors and any fraudulent financial reporting or misappropriation of assets that come to our attention. We will also inform you of any violations of laws or governmental regulations that come to our attention, City of Colleyville July 23, 2009 Page 4 unless clearly inconsequential. Our responsibility as auditors is limited to the period covered by our audit and does not extend to later periods for which we are not engaged as auditors. Our procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the transactions recorded in the accounts, and may include tests of the physical existence of inventories, and direct confirmation of receivables and certain other assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected individuals, funding sources, creditors, and financial institutions. We will request written representations from your attorneys as part of the engagement, and they may bill you for responding to this inquiry. At the conclusion of our audit, we will require certain written representations from you about the financial statements and related matters. Audit Procedures-Internal Controls Our audit will include obtaining an understanding of the entity and its environment, including internal control, sufficient to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and to design the nature, timing, and extent of further audit procedures. Tests of controls may be performed to test the effectiveness of certain controls that we consider relevant to preventing and detecting errors and fraud that are material to the financial statements and to preventing and detecting anisstatements resulting from illegal acts and other noncompliance matters that have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. Our tests, if performed, will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on internal control and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed in our report on internal control issued pursuant to Government Auditing Standards. An audit is not designed to provide assurance on internal control or to identify significant deficiencies. However, during the audit, we will communicate to management and those charged with governance internal control related matters that are required to be communicated under A1CPA professional standards and Government Auditing Standards. Audit Procedures-Compliance As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, we will perform tests of the City of Colleyville's compliance with the provisions of applicable laws, regulations, contracts, agreements, and grants. However, the objective of our audit will not be to provide an opinion on overall compliance and we will not express such an opinion in our report on compliance issued pursuant to Government Auditing Standards. Audit Administration, Fees, and Other We understand that your employees will prepare all cash or other confirmations we request and will locate any documents selected by us for testing. We will provide copies of our reports to the City; however, management is responsible for distribution of the reports and the financial statements. Unless restricted by law or regulation, or containing privileged and confidential information, copies of our reports are to be made available for public inspection.

The firm's accounting and auditing practice applicable to SEC issuers was not reviewed by us since the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) is responsible for inspectvag that portion of the firm's accounting and auditing practice in accordance with PCAOB requirements. A system of. quality control encompasses the firm's organizational structure and the policies adopted and procedures established to provide it with reasonable assurance of complying with professional standards. The elements of quality control are described in the Statements on Quality Control Standards issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the AICPA). The design of the system, and compliance with it, are the responsibilities of the firm. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the design of the system, and the firm's compliance with that system based on our review. Our review was conducted in accordance with standards established by the Peer Review Committee of the Center for Public Company Audit Firms and included procedures to plan and perform the review that are summarized in the attached description of the peer review process. Our review would not necessarily disclose all weaknesses in the system of quality control or all instances of lack of compliance with it since it was based on selective tests. Because there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of quality control, departures from the system may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of a system of quality control to future periods is subject to the risk that the system of quality control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, the system of quality control for the accounting and auditing practice applicable to the non-SEC issuers of Pattillo, Brown & Hill, LLP, in effect for the year ended May 31, 2007, has been designed to meet the requirements of the quality control standards for an accounting and auditing practice established by the AICPA, and was complied with during the year then ended to provide the firm. with reasonable assurance of complying with applicable professional standards.

It presents information about three tax rates. Last years tax rate is the actual rate the taxing unit used to determine property taxes last yeaz. This years effective tax rate would impose the same total taxes as last year if you compare properties taxed in both years. This years rollback tax rate is the highest tax rate the taxing unit can set before taxpayers can start tax rollback procedures. In each case these rates are found by dividing the total amount of taxes by the tax base (the total value of taxable property) with adjustments as required by state law. The rates are given per $100 of property value. Last year's tax rate: Last year's operating taxes $9,776,295 Last year's debt taxes $2,279,989 Last year's total taxes $12,056,284 Last year's tax base $3,387,548,188 Last year's total tax rate 0.355900 /$100 This year's effective tax rate: Last year's adjusted taxes $11,189,184 (after subtracting taxes on lost property) This yews adjusted tax base $3,070,820,925 (after subtracting value of new property) = This year's effective tax rate 0.364371 /$100 (Maximum rate unless unit publishes notices and holds hearings.) This year's rollback tax rate: Last year's adjusted operating taxes (after $9,604,616 subtracting taxes on lost property and adjusting for any transferred function, tax increment financing, state criminal justice mandate, and/or enhanced indigent health caze expenditures) =This year's adjusted tax base $3,070,820,925 = This year's effective operating rate 0.312770 /$100 x 1.08 =this year's maximum operating rate 0.337791 /$100 + This year's debt rate 0.057262 /$100 =This year's total rollback rate 0.395053 /$100 Statement ofIncrease/Decrease If City of Colleyville adopts a 2009 tax rate equal to the effective tax rate of $0.364371 per $100 of value, taxes would decrease compazed to 2008 taxes by $453,640. Schedule A -Unencumbered Fund Balances The following estimated balances will be left in the unit's property tax accounts at the end of the fiscal year.

The City's investment strategy is contained in the section entitled "Investment Strategy" and is presented for the City Council's review. As an additional note, there are no changes proposed to the existing policy because the most recent legislative session yielded no required updates. Financial Impact It has been determined that there is no financial impact. Recommendation Approval City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 7/28/2009 CITY OF COLLEYVILLE INVESTMENT POLICY Policy It is the policy of the City of Colleyville (the City) to invest public funds in a manner which will provide the highest investment return with the maximum security while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the entity and conforming to all State of Texas statutes and City ordinances. Scope This investment policy applies to all financial assets of the City. These funds are accounted for in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report and include: General Fund Utility Fund Debt Service Fund Capital Projects Fund Voluntary Park Fund Sesquicentennial Fund Special Donation Fund Park Land Dedication Fund Crime District Fund Drainage Utility Fund Tree Preservation Fund Library Donation Fund Community Center Building Fund Recycling Fund Police Asset Forfeiture Fund Voluntary Library Fund TIF Fund Kidsville Maintenance Fund and any new fund created by the City Council, unless specifically exempted by the City Council. Objectives The primary objectives, in priority order, of the City's investment activities shall be: Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the City in managing its portfolio. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective the City will diversify its investments by investing funds among a variety of securities offering independent returns and financial institutions. Liquidity: The City will also maintain sufficient liquidity to provide adequate and timely working funds. Return on Investments: The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of obtaining a rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the investment risk constraints and cash flow needs. The City investment strategy is passive and the portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly exceeding the weighted average return on thirteen-week Treasury bills. This is considered a benchmark for riskless investment transactions, and therefore, is a minimum standard for the portfolio's rate of return. For bond funds that fall under the arbitrage provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the City will attempt to earn allowable bond yield with market conditions permitting. Delegation of Authority The City designates the Investment Officers to be the City Manager with overall responsibilities to see that investment objectives are accomplished and the Finance Director with the specific day-to-day performance of managing the funds of the City. Ethics and Conflict of Interest All investment Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or that could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Employees shall disclose to the City of Colleyville and Texas Ethics Commission a statement under the following conditions: A. If they have a personal business relationship with a business organization offering to engage in an investment transaction with the entity. Under the Public Funds Investment Act, a personal business relationship is defined as: 1. The investment officer owns 10 percent or more of the voting stock or shares of the business organization or owns $5,000 or more of the fair market value of the business organization: 2. Funds received by the investment officer from the business organization exceed 10 percent of the investment officer's gross income for the previous year; or 3. The investment officer has acquired from the business organization during the previous year, investments with a book value of $2,500 or more for the personal account of the investment officer. B. If they are related within the second degree by affinity or consanguinity, as determined by Chapter 573 V.A.T.C.S. to an individual seeking to sell an investment to the City of Colleyville. Prudence Investments shall be made with judgement and care -under circumstances then prevailing -which persons of prudence, discretion, and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived. The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the "prudent person", which means the officer may not be an expert but is obligated to act responsibly and shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. Investment officers acting in accordance with written procedures and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security's credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments. Investment officers shall notify the City Council in writing of any conflicts of interest, as defined by the Public Funds Investment Act, no later than the next regularly scheduled Council meeting. It is the policy of the City that the Investment Officers perform their duties in accordance with the policies and procedures set forth in this policy. The Investment Officers of the City (City Manager and Finance Director and the Assistant to the Finance Director (acting in the Finance Director's absence)) shall be personally indemnified in the event of investment loss provided the Investment Policy is followed. Internal Controls The Finance Director shall establish a system of written internal controls which shall be reviewed annually by the independent auditor. The controls shall be designed to prevent the loss of public funds due to fraud, error, misrepresentation, unanticipated market changes or imprudent actions.

Invest in a local government investment pool as authorized by the Interlocal Cooperation Act (TEX. REV. CIV. STAT. ANN. ACT. 4413 (32c), as amended, and the Public Funds Investment Act (TEX. REV. CIV. STAT. ACT. 842a-2), as amended. The investment pool must comply with the requirements of the Public Funds Investment Act, as amended, as follows: a.

Direct repurchase agreements with primary security dealers or financial institutions doing business in the State of Texas having a defined termination date, and secured by U.S. Government or federal agency securities, provided that the ownership of collateral for the repurchase agreement is transferred to the City, and deposited with a safekeeping agent for the duration of the contract and a signed master repurchase agreement has been executed with the counterparty. 8. SEC-registered no-load money market mutual funds with a dollar weighted average portfolio of 90 days or less whose assets consist exclusively of United States Government Securities whose investment objectives include seeking to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share. Investment in mutual funds shall be limited to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of the City's available funds. Unacceptable Investment Instruments The following securities, although authorized by the Public Funds Investment Act, are not eligible investments for the City: Collateralized mortgage obligations 2. Commercial paper 3. Banker's acceptances 4. Reverse repurchase agreements (Local Government Investment Pools which the City participates in may engage in reverse repurchase agreements if the term is 90 days or less) 5.

Guaranteed investment contracts 7. Share certificates of qualifying credit unions Investment Strategy The investment strategy by type of fund is as follows: (1) Operating Funds The investment strategy for operating fund(s) is to assure that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. A secondary objective is to create a portfolio, which will experience minimum volatility during economic cycles. These funds shall not have an investment with a stated maturity greater than eighteen (18) months. (2) Debt Service Funds The investment strategy for debt service fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity to cover the debt service obligations on the required payment date. Investments purchased shall not have a stated final maturity date which exceeds the corresponding debt service payment date. (3) Reserve Funds The investment strategy for reserve fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity adequate to cover the debt service obligations not funded by debt service funds on the required payment date. Investment of reserve funds are controlled by their ordinance, resolution or indenture, and Federal and State law. Bond documents must be examined for each issue, for potential differences with this policy concerning investment instruments, maximum maturity or average life restrictions, call dates or sinking fund redemptions, and applicable arbitrage yields and rebate liability. Provisions contained in the bond documents will supersede provisions of this policy. Reserve funds will be invested using a more conservative approach than the current standard investment strategy when arbitrage rebate rules require refunding excess earnings. All excess earnings received will be segregated to allow a proper determination of interest income to be used in the arbitrage calculation. (4) Special Project or Special Purpose Funds The investment strategy for special projects or special purpose fund portfolio(s) will have as their primary objective to assure that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. The states final maturity dates of securities held shall not exceed the estimated project completion date. Funds in excess of defined construction payment schedules shall be limited to a maximum final maturity date of three years. Maturity limitations for single issue reserve funds shall not exceed the sooner of five (5) years, the call provisions of the bond ordinance, or the final maturity of the bond issue. A. Diversification The City will attempt to limit the risk of loss through diversification of its portfolio and to achieve the aforementioned investment strategies by diversification of instruments. Maximum Percent Diversification by Instrument of Portfolio U.S. Treasury Obligations (Bills, Notes and Bonds), 100% U.S. Government Agency Securities, and Instrumentalities of Government Sponsored Corporations 75% Certificates of Deposit (CD's) Commercial Bank's 75% Local Government Investment Pool 75% Tri-Party Repurchase Agreement 75% SEC registered, no-load mutual fund 10% Investment Procedures The City shall enter the following agreements (if applicable): safekeeping, PSA repurchase agreements, wire transfer agreements, banking services contracts, and collateral/depository agreements. These contracts shall include the explicit delegation of authority to persons responsible for the transactions involving these agreements. No person except those designated in the contract may engage in any investment transactions. On all funds invested in instruments as listed in "Permissible Investments" numbers one through five, oral bids shall be requested from at least two broker/dealers or national banks. The City will accept the bid that provides the highest rate of return within the maturity required and within the parameters of this policy. Records will be kept of the bids offered, bids accepted, and a brief explanation of the decision that was made regarding the investment. Qualified Institutions Annually, the City Council shall approve four financial institutions for investment purposes as recommended by the Finance Director. All firms shall answer the Broker/Dealer questionnaire (Appendix A) and submit their most recent audited financial statements to the City Council for evaluation of credit worthiness. All personnel in the firms who will be trading or quoting securities to the City Council must maintain a current NASD license and be registered to deal securities in the State of Texas. An investment certification form (Appendix B) on the firm's letterhead signed by a principal of the firm must be on file with the City. Safekeeping All marketable securities purchased by the City shall be held in third party safekeeping by an institution designated as primary agent. All securities will be delivered to the third party institution by seller. Personnel in the third party institution will verify the correct security was delivered by the seller ("delivery vs payment"). The third party institution shall issue a safekeeping receipt to the City listing the specific instrument, rate/yield, maturity, CUSIP, and other pertinent information. Collateral on deposit type securities which exceed the FDIC coverage shall be held in a third party safekeeping institution. In the event a third party safekeeping institution is used, a collateral agreement shall be executed between the City Council, depository which pledged the collateral, and the third party custodian of the collateral. The City will retain possession of all original safekeeping receipts and the receipts will state the security is pledged to the City.

Arbitrage The Tax Reform Act of 1986 places limitations on the City's yield from investing certain tax- exempt bond proceeds, debt service funds and reserve funds. The rebate provisions require that the City compute earnings on investments from certain issues of bonds on a periodic basis to determine if rebate is required. To determine the City's arbitrage position, the City is required to calculate the actual yield earned on the investment of the funds and compare it to the yield that would have been earned if the funds had been invested at a rate equal to the yield on the applicable bonds sold by the City. The rebate provisions state that periodically (not less than once every five years and not later than sixty days after maturity of the bonds), the City is required to pay the United States Treasury a rebate of any excess earnings. These restrictions require extreme precision in the monitoring and record keeping of investments, particularly in computing yields to ensure compliance. Failure to comply can dictate that the bonds become taxable, retroactively from the date of issuance. The investment strategy for bond funds which fall under the arbitrage provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, is that the City will attempt to earn maximum allowable bond yield with market conditions permitting. Reporting Requirements The Finance Director shall issue a written report quarterly to the City Council concerning the City's investment transactions for the preceding quarter and describing in detail the investment position of the City as of the end of the quarter indicating the market values of all investments held during the quarter. The report shall list for each investment held during the quarter: the purchase price of the investment, the par value of the investment, the market value of the investment at the beginning of the quarter, market value of the investment at the end of the quarter, the market change from the beginning until the end of the quarter, and fully accrued interest for the period. This report shall be in compliance with provisions of the Public Funds Investment Act, as amended. The report shall be signed by the City Manager and Finance Director. Training Requirements Both the Finance Director and Assistant to the Finance Director shall complete ten hours of training every two years as required by the Public Funds Investment Act. This training may be obtained from the following sources: North Central Texas Council of Governments, Government Treasurer's Organization of Texas, Government Finance Officer's of Texas, or Texas Municipal League. The training must include education in investment controls, security risks, strategy risks, market risks, and any other topics as required by the Public Funds Investment Act.

Scope This investment policy applies to all financial assets of the City. These funds are accounted for in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report and include: General Fund Utility Fund Debt Service Fund Capital Projects Fund Voluntary Park Fund Sesquicentennial Fund Special Donation Fund Park Land Dedication Fund Crime District Fund Drainage Utility Fund Tree Preservation Fund Library Donation Fund Community Center Building Fund Recycling Fund Police Asset Forfeiture Fund Voluntary Library Fund TIF Fund Kidsville Maintenance Fund and any new fund created by the City Council, unless specifically exempted by the City Council. Objectives The primary objectives, in priority order, of the City's investment activities shall be: Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the City in managing its portfolio. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective the City will diversify its investments by investing funds among a variety of securities offering independent returns and financial institutions. Liquidity: The City will also maintain sufficient liquidity to provide adequate and timely working funds. Return on Investments: The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of obtaining a rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, commensurate with the investment risk constraints and cash flow needs. The City investment strategy is passive and the portfolio shall be designed with the objective of regularly exceeding the weighted average return on thirteen-week Treasury bills. This is considered a benchmark for riskless-investment transactions, and therefore, is a minimum standard for the portfolio's rate of return. For bond funds that fall under the arbitrage provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the City will attempt to earn allowable bond yield with market conditions permitting. Delegation of Authority The City designates the Investment Officers to be the City Manager with overall responsibilities to see that investment objectives are accomplished and the Finance Director with the specific day-to-day performance of managing the funds of the City. Ethics and Conflict of Interest All investment Officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program, or that could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions. Employees shall disclose to the City of Colleyville and Texas Ethics Commission a statement under the following conditions: A. If they have a personal business relationship with a business organization offering to engage in an investment transaction with the entity. Under the Public Funds Investment Act, a personal business relationship is defined as: The investment officer owns 10 percent or more of the voting stock or shares of the business organization or owns $5,000 or more of the fair market value of the business organization: 2. Funds received by the investment officer from the business organization exceed 10 percent of the investment officer's gross income for the previous year; or 3. The investment officer has acquired from the business organization during the previous year, investments with a book value of $2,500 or more for the personal account of the investment officer. B. If they are related within the second degree by affinity or consanguinity, as determined by Chapter 573 V.A.T.C.S. to an individual seeking to sell an investment to the City of Colleyville. Prudence Investments shall be made with judgement and care -under circumstances then prevailing -which persons of prudence, discretion, and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived. The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials shall be the "prudent person", which means the officer may not be an expert but is obligated to act responsibly and shall be applied in the context of managing an overall portfolio. Investment officers acting in accordance with written procedures and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security's credit risk or market price changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and appropriate action is taken to control adverse developments. Investment officers shall notify the City Council in writing of any conflicts of interest, as defined by the Public Funds Investment Act, no later than the next regularly scheduled Council meeting. It is the policy of the City that the Investment Officers perform their duties in accordance with the policies and procedures set forth in this policy. The Investment Officers of the City (City Manager and Finance Director and the Assistant to the Finance Director (acting in the Finance Director's absence)) shall be personally indemnified in the event of investment loss provided the Investment Policy is followed. Internal Controls The Finance Director shall establish a system of written internal controls which shall be reviewed annually by the independent auditor. The controls shall be designed to prevent the loss of public funds due to fraud, error, misrepresentation, unanticipated market changes or imprudent actions. Permissible Instruments The following is a list of permissible instruments as authorized by the 70th Texas Legislature in the Public Funds Investment Act (TEX. REV. CIV. STAT. ANN.

Direct repurchase agreements with primary security dealers or financial institutions doing business in the State of Texas having a defined termination date, and secured by U.S. Government or federal agency securities, provided that the ownership of collateral for the repurchase agreement is transferred to the City, and deposited with a safekeeping agent for the duration of the contract and a signed master repurchase agreement has been executed with the counterparty. 8. SEC-registered no-load money market mutual funds with a dollarweighted average portfolio of 90 days or less whose assets consist exclusively of United States Government Securities whose investment objectives include seeking to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Commercial paper 3. Banker's acceptances 4. Reverse repurchase agreements (Local Government Investment Pools which the City participates in may engage in reverse repurchase agreements if the term is 90 days or less) 5.

Guaranteed investment contracts 7. Share certificates of qualifying credit unions Investment Strategy The investment strategy by type of fund is as follows: (1) Operating Funds The investment strategy for operating fund(s) is to assure that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. A secondary objective is to create a portfolio, which will experience minimum volatility during economic cycles. These funds shall not have an investment with a stated maturity greater than eighteen (18) months. (2) Debt Service Funds The investment strategy for debt service fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity to cover the debt service obligations on the required payment date. Investments purchased shall not have a stated final maturity date which exceeds the corresponding debt service payment date. (3) Reserve Funds The investment strategy for reserve fund(s) is the assurance of investment liquidity adequate to cover the debt service obligations not funded by debt service funds on the required payment date. Investment of reserve funds are controlled by their ordinance, resolution or indenture, and Federal and State law. Bond documents must be examined for each issue, for potential differences with this policy concerning investment instruments, maximum maturity or average life restrictions, call dates or sinking fund redemptions, and applicable arbitrage yields and rebate liability. Provisions contained in the bond documents will supersede provisions of this policy. Reserve funds will be invested using a more conservative approach than the current standard investment strategy when arbitrage rebate rules require refunding excess earnings. All excess earnings received will be segregated to allow a proper determination of interest income to be used in the arbitrage calculation. (4) Special Project or Special Purpose Funds The investment strategy for special projects or special purpose fund portfolio(s) will have as their primary objective to assure that anticipated cash flows are matched with adequate investment liquidity. The states final maturity dates of securities held shall not exceed the estimated project completion date. Funds in excess of defined construction payment schedules shall be limited to a maximum final maturity date of three years. Maturity limitations for single issue reserve funds shall not exceed the sooner of five (5) years, the call provisions of the bond ordinance, or the final maturity of the bond issue. A. Diversification The City will attempt to limit the risk of loss through diversification of its portfolio and to achieve the aforementioned investment strategies by diversification of instruments. Maximum Percent Diversification by Instrument of Portfolio U.S. Treasury Obligations (Bills, Notes and Bonds), 100% U.S. Government Agency Securities, and Instrumentalities of Government Sponsored Corporations 75% Certificates of Deposit (CD's) Commercial Bank's 75% Local Government Investment Pool 75% Tri-Party Repurchase Agreement 75% SEC registered, no-load mutual fund 10% Investment Procedures The City shall enter the following agreements (if applicable): safekeeping, PSA repurchase agreements, wire transfer agreements, banking services contracts, and collateral/depository agreements. These contracts shall include the explicit delegation of authority to persons responsible for the transactions involving these agreements. No person except those designated in the contract may engage in any investment transactions. On all funds invested in instruments as listed in "Permissible Investments" numbers one through five, oral bids shall be requested from at least two broker/dealers or national banks. The City will accept the bid that provides the highest rate of return within the maturity required and within the parameters of this policy. Records will be kept of the bids offered, bids accepted, and a brief explanation of the decision that was made regarding the investment. Qualified Institutions Annually, the City Council shall approve four financial institutions for investment purposes as recommended by the Finance Director. All firms shall answer the Broker/Dealer questionnaire (Appendix A) and submit their most recent audited financial statements to the City Council for evaluation of credit worthiness. All personnel in the firms who will be trading or quoting securities to the City Council must maintain a current NASD license and be registered to deal securities in the State of Texas.

Safekeeping All marketable securities purchased by the City shall be held in third party safekeeping by an institution designated as primary agent. All securities will be delivered to the third party institution by seller. Personnel in the third party institution will verify the correct security was delivered by the seller ("delivery vs payment"). The third party institution shall issue a safekeeping receipt to the City listing the specific instrument, rate/yield, maturity, CUSIP, and other pertinent information. Collateral on deposit type securities which exceed the FDIC coverage shall be held in a third party safekeeping institution. In the event a third party safekeeping institution is used, a collateral agreement shall be executed between the City Council, depository which pledged the collateral, and the third party custodian of the collateral. The City will retain possession of all original safekeeping receipts and the receipts will state the security is pledged to the City. Either the City Manager or the Finance Director must approve release of collateral in writing prior to its removal from the safekeeping account. Collateral Securities for Certificates of Deposit and Demand Accounts The City will accept as collateral for its Certificates of Deposit and demand accounts the following securities: A.

Arbitrage The Tax Reform Act of 1986 places limitations on the City's yield from investing certain tax- exempt bond proceeds, debt service funds and reserve funds. The rebate provisions require that the City compute earnings on investments from certain issues of bonds on a periodic basis to determine if rebate is required. To determine the City's arbitrage position, the City is required to calculate the actual yield earned on the investment of the funds and compare it to the yield that would have been earned if the funds had been invested at a rate equal to the yield on the applicable bonds sold by the City. The rebate provisions state that periodically (not less than once every five years and not later than sixty days after maturity of the bonds), the City is required to pay the United States Treasury a rebate of any excess earnings. These restrictions require extreme precision in the monitoring and record keeping of investments, particularly in computing yields to ensure compliance. Failure to comply can dictate that the bonds become taxable, retroactively from the date of issuance. The investment strategy for bond funds which fall under the arbitrage provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, is that the City will attempt to earn maximum allowable bond yield with market conditions permitting. Reporting Requirements The Finance Director shall issue a written report quarterly to the City Council concerning the City's investment transactions for the preceding quarter and describing in detail the investment position of the City as of the end of the quarter indicating the market values of all investments held during the quarter.

Patterson Explanation Reading and Public Hearing Michael Patterson proposes to donate granite memorial markers of Colleyville World War II Memorials for display at the Colleyville Senior Center. These markers were originally located in the median on Main Street in the Village. When the median was removed, the markers were removed as well. On July 26, 2009, the Senior Center Advisory Committee unanimously agreed to recommend to City Council the approval of three (3) granite memorial markers to be placed at the Colleyville Senior Center.

Therefore there can be no time in the future when they could be sold, scrapped, revamped, traded, recycled, or used for monetary gain by the Ciry in any way. The City has no future monetary interest to be safeguarded by obtaining these stones through an outright grant. Granite is one of the most plentiful substances on Earth, and has limited value unless it has been quarried, cut, polished, and engraved. The high costs of processing it make it much easier and more cost effective to use new stone in any project, thus it has virtually no recycling value at all. Stipulations regarding the loan of the three granite tablets making up the Colleyville World War II Memorial: 1. The three stones will be installed by Mike Patterson, Tmmy Reynolds, or their assigns at the site agreed upon by the City, Patterson, and Reynolds. Patterson and Reynolds will bear the ernire cost of the installation. 2. All three stones will be removed and retained by Mike Patterson or his assigns should they need to be taken off display or moved from the Collevville Senior Citizens' Center on Glade Road. 3. If it becomes necessary or desirable to move the stones from the Colleyvilie Senior Citizens' Cemer, and if the City desires them to remain on City property, they may be placed at some site agreeable to both the City and Make Patterson, or his assigns. 4.Only Mike Patterson or his assigns may install, move, or add soldiers' names to the Memorial. Only veterans who were living in present-day Colleyville at the time of their enlistment and/or service in World War II may have their names engraved on the memorial.

FEMA recently advised the City that updated Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) revisions must be approved by ordinance and these revisions will become effective on September 25, 2009. The new maps reflect any changes that FEMA made to various flood zone designations in the community since 2000. It is necessary for the map revisions to be approved by City Council in order for Colleyville residents to obtain federally subsidized flood insurance in the future. Other areas within the community may be subject to localized flooding but are not reflected in the new map revisions as designated by FEMA. Copies of the new maps are available for review in the Engineering Department.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLLEYVILLE, TEXAS: Sec. 1. THAT the effective date of this ordinance shall be September 25, 2009. FLOOD DAMAGE PREVENTION ORDINANCE ARTICLE I STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION, FINDINGS OF FACT, PURPOSE AND METHODS SECTION A. STATUTORY AUTHORIZATION The Legislature of the State of Texas has in the Flood Control Insurance Act, Texas Water Code, Section 16.315, delegated the responsibility of local governmental units to adopt regulations designed to minimize flood losses. Therefore, the City Council of the City of Colleyville, Texas does ordain as follows: SECTION B. FINDINGS OF FACT (1) The flood hazard areas of the City of Colleyville are subject to periodic inundation, which results in loss of life and property, health and safety hazards, disruption of commerce and governmental services, and extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief, all of which adversely affect the public health, safety and general welfare. (2) These flood losses are created by the cumulative effect of obstructions in floodplains which cause an increase in flood heights and velocities, and by the occupancy of flood hazard areas by uses vulnerable to floods and hazardous to other lands because they are inadequately elevated, flood proofed or otherwise protected from flood damage. SECTION C. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE It is the purpose of this ordinance to promote the public health, safety and general welfare and to minimize public and private losses due to flood conditions in specific areas by provisions designed to: (1) Protect human life and health; (2) Minimize expenditure of public money for costly flood control projects; Ordinance 0-09-1723 Page 2 of 20 (3) Minimize the need for rescue and relief efforts associated with flooding and generally undertaken at the expense of the general public; (4) Minimize prolonged business interruptions; (5) Minimize damage to public facilities and utilities such as water and gas mains, electric, telephone and sewer lines, streets and bridges located in floodplains; (6) Help maintain a stable tax base by providing for the sound use and development of flood-prone areas in such a manner as to minimize future flood blight areas; and (7) Insure that potential buyers are notified that property is in a flood area. SECTION D. METHODS OF REDUCING FLOOD LOSSES In order to accomplish its purposes, this ordinance uses the following methods: (1) Restrict or prohibit uses that are dangerous to health, safety or property in times of flood, or cause excessive increases in flood heights or velocities; (2) Require that uses vulnerable to floods, including facilities which serve such uses, be protected against flood damage at the time of initial construction; (3) Control the alteration of natural floodplains, stream channels, and natural protective barriers, which are involved in the accommodation of flood waters; (4) Control filling, grading, dredging and other development which may increase flood damage; (5) Prevent or regulate the construction of flood barriers which will unnaturally divert flood waters or which may increase flood hazards to other lands. ARTICLE 2 DEFINITIONS Unless specifically defined below, words or phrases used in this ordinance shall be interpreted to give them the meaning they have in common usage and to give this ordinance it's most reasonable application. ALLUVIAL FAN FLOODING -means flooding occurring on the surface of an alluvial fan or similar landform which originates at the apex and is characterized by high-velocity flows; active processes of erosion, sediment transport, and deposition; and unpredictable flow paths.

Ordinance 0-09-1723 Page 13 of 20 SECTION D. VARIANCE PROCEDURES (1) The Appeal Board, as established by the community, shall hear and render judgment on requests for variances from the requirements of this ordinance. (2) The Appeal Board shall hear and render judgment on an appeal only when it is alleged there is an error in any requirement, decision, or determination made by the Floodplain Administrator in the enforcement or administration of this ordinance. (3) Any person or persons aggrieved by the decision of the Appeal Board may appeal such decision in the courts of competent jurisdiction. (4) The Floodplain Administrator shall maintain a record of all actions involving an appeal and shall report variances to the Federal Emergency Management Agency upon request. (5) Variances may be issued for the reconstruction, rehabilitation or restoration of structures listed on the National Register of Historic Places or the State Inventory of Historic Places, without regard to the procedures set forth in the remainder of this ordinance. (6) Variances may be issued for new construction and substantial improvements to be erected on a lot of 1/2 acre or less in size contiguous to and surrounded by lots with existing structures constructed below the base flood level, providing the relevant factors in Section C (2) of this Article have been fully considered. As the lot size increases beyond the 1/2 acre, the technical justification required for issuing the variance increases. (7) Upon consideration of the factors noted above and the intent of this ordinance, the Appeal Board may attach such conditions to the granting of variances as it deems necessary to further the purpose and objectives of this ordinance (Article 1, Section C). (8) Variances shall not be issued within any designated floodway if any increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result. (9) Variances may be issued for the repair or rehabilitation of historic structures upon a determination that the proposed repair or rehabilitation will not preclude the structure's continued designation as a historic structure and the variance is the minimum necessary to preserve the historic character and design of the structure. Ordinance 0-09-1723 Page 14 of 20 (10) Prerequisites for granting variances: (a) Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford relief. (b) Variances shall only be issued upon: (i) showing a good and sufficient cause; (ii) a determination that failure to grant the variance would result in exceptional hardship to the applicant, and (iii) a determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased flood heights, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense, create nuisances, cause fraud on or victimization of the public, or conflict with existing local laws or ordinances. (c) Any application to which a variance is granted shall be given written notice that the structure will be permitted to be built with the lowest floor elevation below the base flood elevation, and that the cost of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting from the reduced lowest floor elevation. (11) Variances may be issued by a community for new construction and substantial improvements and for other development necessary for the conduct of a functionally dependent use provided that (i) the criteria outlined in Article 4, Section D (1)-(9) are met, and (ii) the structure or other development is protected by methods that minimize flood damages during the base flood and create no additional threats to public safety. ARTICLE 5 PROVISIONS FOR FLOOD HAZARD REDUCTION SECTION A.

STANDARDS FOR SUBDIVISION PROPOSALS (1) All subdivision proposals including the placement of manufactured home parks and subdivisions shall be consistent with Article 1, Sections B, C, and D of this ordinance. (2) All proposals for the development of subdivisions including the placement of manufactured home parks and subdivisions shall meet Floodplain Development Permit requirements of Article 3, Section C; Article 4, Section C; and the provisions of Article 5 of this ordinance. (3) Base flood elevation data shall be generated for subdivision proposals and other proposed development including the placement of manufactured home parks and subdivisions which is greater than 50 lots or 5 acres, whichever is lesser, if not otherwise provided pursuant to Article 3, Section B or Article 4, Section B (8) of this ordinance. (4) All subdivision proposals including the placement of manufactured home parks and subdivisions shall have adequate drainage provided to reduce exposure to flood hazards. (5) All subdivision proposals including the placement of manufactured home parks and subdivisions shall have public utilities and facilities such as sewer, gas, electrical and water systems located and constructed to minimize or eliminate flood damage. SECTION D. STANDARDS FOR AREAS OF SHALLOW FLOODING (AO/AH ZONES) Located within the areas of special flood hazard established in Article 3, Section B, are areas designated as shallow flooding. These areas have special flood hazards associated with flood depths of 1 to 3 feet where a clearly defined channel does not exist, where the path of flooding is unpredictable, and where velocity flow may be evident. Such flooding is characterized by ponding or sheet flow; therefore, the following provisions apply: Ordinance 0-09-1723 Page 18 of 20 (1) All new construction and substantial improvements of residential structures have the lowest floor (including basement) elevated to 2 feet above the base flood elevation or the highest adjacent grade at least as high as the depth number specified in feet on the community's FIRM (at least 2 feet if no depth number is specified). (2) All new construction and substantial improvements of non-residential structures; (a) have the lowest floor (including basement) elevated to 2 feet above the base flood elevation or the highest adjacent grade at least as high as the depth number specified in feet on the community's FIRM (at least 2 feet if no depth number is specified), or (b) together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities be designed so that below the base specified flood depth in an AO Zone, or below the Base Flood Elevation in an AH Zone, level the structure is watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads of effects of buoyancy. (3) A registered professional engineer or architect shall submit a certification to the Floodplain Administrator that the standards of this Section, as proposed in Article 4, Section C are satisfied. (4) Require within Zones AH or AO adequate drainage paths around structures on slopes, to guide flood waters around and away from proposed structures. SECTION E. FLOODWAYS Floodways -located within areas of special flood hazard established in Article 3, Section B, are areas designated as floodways. Since the floodway is an extremely hazardous area due to the velocity of flood waters which carry debris, potential projectiles and erosion potential, the following provisions shall apply: (1) Encroachments are prohibited, including fill, new construction, substantial improvements and other development within the adopted regulatory floodway unless it has been demonstrated through hydrologic and hydraulic analyses performed in accordance with standard engineering practice that the proposed encroachment would not result in any increase in flood levels within the community during the occurrence of the base flood discharge. Ordinance 0-09-1723 Page 19 of 20 (2) If Article 5, Section E (1) above is satisfied, all new construction and substantial improvements shall comply with all applicable flood hazard reduction provisions of Article 5. (3) Under the provisions of 44 CFR Chapter 1, Section 65.12, of the National Flood Insurance Program Regulations, a community may permit encroachments within the adopted regulatory floodway that would result in an increase in base flood elevations, provided that the community first completes all of the provisions required by Section 65.12. SECTION F. SEVERABILITY If any section, clause, sentence, or phrase of this Ordinance is held to be invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, then said holding shall in no way affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. SECTION G. PENALTIES FOR NON COMPLIANCE No structure or land shall hereafter be constructed, located, extended, converted, or altered without full compliance with the terms of this court order and other applicable regulations. Violation of the provisions of this court order by failure to comply with any of its requirements (including violations of conditions and safeguards established in connection with conditions) shall constitute a misdemeanor.

First Reading and Public Hearing The City of Colleyville, and 150 other cities served by Atmos Energy Mid-Tex Division (Atmos), is a member of the Atmos Cities Steering Committee (ACSC). On March 6, 2009, Atmos filed an application with the City to increase natural gas rates pursuant to the Rate Review Mechanism (RRM) tariff approved by the City as part of the settlement of the Atmos 2007 Statement of Intent to increase rates. The RRM tariff was approved by ACSC Cities as part of the settlement agreement to resolve the Atmos Mid-Tex 2007 rate increase case. Atmos Mid-Tex's current action represents the second filing pursuant to the three-year trial project known as the RRM process. The RRM process was created collaboratively by ACSC and Atmos as an alternative to the GRIP surcharge process. The RRM process allows for a more comprehensive rate review and annual adjustment that will function as a substitute for future GRIP filings during the three-year trial period specified by the tariff. City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 7/30/2009 Agenda Briefing Continued (0-09-1724) There are two components to the RRM adjustment. The prospective component adjusts rates for known and measurable changes in operation and maintenance (O&M) and net plant investment. Atmos and ACSC agreed to cap changes to expenses and invested capital at no more than 5%. The true-up component evaluates whether the Company has over or under recovered its earnings for the previous year. For purposes of the RRM true-up component, the Atmos rate of return on equity and its capital structure are frozen to avoid the parent company from manipulating the overall rate of return. Costs expressly prohibited from recovery through the RRM include first-class air fare, travel, meals or entertainment for an employee's spouse, alcohol, sports events, entertainment, arts and cultural events, sponsorship of sports, arts or cultural events, and social club membership dues. Current rates contain atrue-up component ($9 million to be collected over 12 months) from the first RRM in 2008. Collection of the 2008 true-up amount is scheduled to end on November 1, 2009. The rate impact of that 2008 true-up amount for the period August 1 - October 31, 2009 is $1,006,073. To simplify the process and to reduce rate fluctuations, the parties have agreed to eliminate collection of the 2008 true-up on August 1, 2009 rather than November 1, 2009. The remaining $1,006,073 that is still owed from the 2008 true-up will be recovered as part of the 2009 true-up over 12 months rather than three months. This change related to the 2008 true-up amount is revenue and rate impact neutral. The March RRM filing sought a $20.2 million rate increase. The City worked with ACSC to analyze the schedules and evidence offered by Atmos to support its request to increase rates. The Ordinance and attached RRM tariff are the result of negotiation between ACSC and Atmos to resolve issues raised by ACSC during the review and evaluation of ACSC's RRM filing. The Ordinance and RRM tariffs approve rates that will increase the Company's revenues by $2.6 million effective for bills rendered on or after August 1, 2009. The monthly bill impact for the average residential customer will be a $0.15 increase (approximately a 0.22% increase in the total bill). The ACSC Executive Committee recommends that all ACSC Cities adopt the Ordinance implementing the rate change. The Ordinance approves rate tariffs (Attachment "A") and Proof of Revenues (Attachment "B") that reflect the negotiated rate change pursuant to the RRM process. In addition to the RRM tariffs, the Ordinance also approves a revision to the current Atmos Gas Cost Recovery ("GCR") tariff to allow the Company to recover certain hedging costs associated with natural gas futures through the GCR tariff. As a result of the negotiations, ACSC was able to reduce the Company's requested $20.2 million RRM increase by more than 70%. Approval of the Ordinance will result in rates that implement a $2.6 million increase in Atmos' revenues effective August 1, 2009. this increase equates to a $0.15 increase for the average residential customer. Financial Impact It has been determined that there is no financial impact to the City. Recommendation Approval City of Colleyville Page 2 Printed on 7/27/2009 Rate Review Mechanism Fact Sheet *The Rate Review Mechanism (RRM) was created in 2008 as part of a collaborative agreement between ACSC and Atmos. It replaces the unworkable and contentious Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program (GRIP) surcharge process. *The RRM authorizes cities to meaningfully review and dispute the company's annual rate filings in an expedited rate proceeding at the city level. This authority was lacking under the GRIP process. *The RRM is a substitute for GRIP filings during the three-year trial period (2008 - 2010). *The RRM permits the Company to seek an annual review of its revenues, estimated cost of operations, and capital investments. In most cases, the company cannot seek rate adjustments greater than 5 percent. The Company must provide evidence as part of the annual review process that cities can assess and, if necessary, challenge. *The RRM process allows Atmos to seek a surcharge from ratepayers if its anticipated expenses exceed its anticipated revenues fora 12 month period. However, if the Company's revenues exceed its authorized rate of return, it must issue refunds. Costs Expressly Prohibited from Recovery Under the RRM: First class airfare, travel, meals or entertainment for an employee's spouse, alcohol, sports events, entertainment, arts and cultural events, sponsorship of sports, arts or cultural events, and social club membership dues. The RRM is applicable only to the Company's base rates -the cost of delivering natural gas to customers. The commodity price of natural gas is apass-through cost to customers that can change monthly based upon the price of natural gas. RRM Bill Impacts: Pursuant to the negotiated agreement between Atmos and the Steering Committee, the tariffs implementing the RRM will increase rates by $2.6 million. The average monthly customer impact by class will be: Residential (4.7 Mcf/month) - $0.15/month increase (0.22% overall increase) Commercial (36.1 Mcf/month) - $0.26/month increase (0.06% overall increase) Industrial (3480 MMBtu/month) - $46.80/month decrease (1.96% overall decrease) ORDINANCE 0-09-1724 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLLEYVILLE, TEXAS, ("CITY") APPROVING A NEGOTIATED RESOLUTION BETWEEN THE ATMOS CITIES STEERING COMMITTEE ("ACSC" OR "STEERING COMMITTEE") AND ATMOS ENERGY CORPORATION, MID-TEX DIVISION ("ATMOS MID-TEX" OR "COMPANY") REGARDING THE COMPANY'S RATE REVIEW MECHANISM FILING IN ALL CITIES EXERCISING ORIGINAL JURISDICTION; DECLARING EXISTING RATES TO BE UNREASONABLE; REQUIRING THE COMPANY TO REIMBURSE CITIES' REASONABLE RATEMAKING EXPENSES; ADOPTING TARIFFS THAT REFLECT RATE ADJUSTMENTS CONSISTENT WITH THE NEGOTIATED SETTLEMENT AND FINDING THE RATES TO BE SET BY THE ATTACHED TARIFFS TO BE JUST AND REASONABLE; APPROVING ATMOS' PROOF OF REVENUES; ADOPTING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; DETERMINING THAT THIS ORDINANCE WAS PASSED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE TEXAS OPEN MEETINGS ACT; DECLARING AN EFFECTIVE DATE; AND REQUIRING DELIVERY OF THIS ORDINANCE TO THE COMPANY AND THE STEERING COMMITTEE'S LEGAL COUNSEL WHEREAS, the City of Colleyville, Texas ("City") is a gas utility customer of Atmos Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division ("Atmos Mid-Tex" or "Company"), and a regulatory authority with an interest in the rates and charges of Atmos Mid-Tex; and WHEREAS, the City is a member of the Atmos Cities Steering Committee ("ACSC" or "Steering Committee"), a coalition of more than 150 similarly situated cities served by Atmos Mid-Tex that have joined together to facilitate the review and response to natural gas issues affecting rates charged in the Atmos Mid-Tex service area (such participating cities are referred to herein as "ACSC Cities"); and WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the agreement settling the Company's 2007 Statement of Intent to increase rates, ACSC Cities and the Company worked collaboratively to develop the Rate Review Mechanism ("RRM") tariff that allows for an expedited rate review process controlled in a three year experiment by ACSC Cities as a substitute to the current GRIP process instituted by the Legislature; and WHEREAS, the City took action in 2008 to approve a Settlement Agreement with Atmos Mid-Tex resolving the Company's 2007 rate case and authorizing the RRM Tariff; and WHEREAS, the 2008 Settlement Agreement contemplates reimbursement of ACSC Cities' reasonable expenses associated with RRM applications; and Ordinance 0-09-1724 Page 2 of 4 WHEREAS, on or about March 6, 2009, Atmos Mid-Tex filed with the City its second application pursuant to the RRM tariff to increase natural gas rates by approximately $20.2 million, such increase to be effective in every municipality that has adopted the RRM tariff within its Mid-Tex Division; and WHEREAS, ACSC Cities coordinated its review of Atmos' RRM filing and designated a Settlement Committee made up of ACSC representatives and assisted by ACSC attorneys and consultants to resolve issues identified by ACSC in the Company's RRM filing; and WHEREAS, the Company has filed evidence that existing rates are unreasonable and should be changed; and WHEREAS, independent analysis by ACSC's rate expert concluded that Atmos Mid- Tex is able to justify a slight rate increase over current rates; and WHEREAS, the Steering Committee has advocated in other proceedings that Atmos Mid-Tex hedge natural gas futures in order to mitigate the volatility of natural gas prices, which are a flow through to customers; and WHEREAS, the ACSC Executive Committee, as well as ACSC lawyers and consultants, recommend that ACSC members approve the attached rate tariffs (Attachment "A"), which will increase the Company's revenue requirement by $2.6 million; and WHEREAS, the attached tariffs implementing new rates and Atmos' Proof of Revenues (Attachment "B") are consistent with the negotiated resolution reached by ACSC Cities and are just, reasonable, and in the public interest; and WHEREAS, it is the intention of the parties that if the City determines any rates, revenues, terms and conditions, or benefits resulting from a Final Order or subsequent negotiated settlement approved in any proceeding addressing the issues raised in the Company's RRM filing would be more beneficial to the City than the terms of the attached tariff, then the more favorable rates, revenues, terms and conditions, or benefits shall additionally accrue to the City; and WHEREAS, the negotiated resolution of the Company's RRM filing and the resulting rates are, as a whole, in the public interest.

The total gas cost recovery amount due is determined by adding the gas cost calculated in Section (a) below and the pipeline cost calculated in Section (b) below. The amount due for gas cost (Section (a)) is determined by multiplying the Gas Cost Recovery Factor (GCRF) by the Customer's monthly volume. For Customers receiving service under Rate R and Rate C, monthly volume will be calculated on a Mcf basis. For Customers receiving service under Rate I, monthly volume will be calculated on an MMBtu basis and the quantities will be adjusted as necessary to recover actual gas costs. The amount due for pipeline cost (Section (b)) is determined by multiplying the Pipeline Cost Factor (PCF) by the Customer's monthly volume. For Customers receiving service under Rate R and Rate C, monthly volume will be calculated on an Mcf basis. For Customers receiving service under Rate I and Rate T, monthly volume will be calculated on an MMBtu basis and the quantities will be adjusted as necessary to recover actual gas costs. (a) Gas Cost Method of Calculation The monthly gas cost adjustment is calculated by the application of a Gas Cost Recovery Factor (GCRF), as determined with the following formula: GCRF =Estimated Gas Cost Factor (EGCF) + Reconciliation Factor (RF) + Taxes (TXS) EGCF =Estimated cost of gas, including lost and unaccounted for gas attributed to residential, commercial, and industrial sales, and any reconciliation balance of unrecovered gas costs, divided by the estimated total residential, commercial, and industrial sales. Lost and unaccounted for gas is limited to 5%. RF •= Calculated by dividing the difference between the Actual Gas Cost Incurred, inclusive of interest over the preceding twelve-month period ended June 30 and the Actual Gas Cost Billed over that same twelve-month period by the estimated total residential, commercial, and industrial sales for the succeeding October through June billing months. The interest rate to be used is the annual interest rate on overcharges and under charges by a utility as published by the Public Utility Commission each December. The interest rate for calendar year 2009 is 2.09%. Actual Gas Cost Incurred =The sum of the costs booked in Atmos Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division account numbers 800 through 813 and 858 of the FERC Uniform System of Accounts, including the net impact of injecting and withdrawing gas from storage. Also includes a credit or debit for any out-of-period adjustments or unusual or nonrecurring costs typically considered gas costs and a credit for amounts received as Imbalance Fees or Curtailment Overpull Fees.

Actual Gas Cost Billed = EGCF multiplied by the monthly volumes billed to Residential, Commercial and Industrial Sales customers, less the total amount of gas cost determined to have been uncollectible and written off which remain unpaid for each month of the reconciliation period. Any amount remaining in the reconciliation balance after the conclusion of the period of amortization will be maintained in the reconciliation balance and included in the collection of the next RF. Atmos Energy shall file annual reports with the Commission, providing by month the following amounts: Gas Cost Written Off. Margin Written Off, Tax and Other Written Off, Total Written Off, Gas Cost Collected and Margin Collected. TXS =Any statutorily imposed assessments or taxes applicable to the purchase of gas divided by the estimated total residential, commercial, and industrial sales. ADJ =Any surcharge or refund ordered by a regulatory authority, inclusive of interest, divided by the estimated total residential, commercial, and industrial sales is to be included as a separate Tine item surcharge. (b) Pipeline Cost Method of Calculation Each month, a Pipeline Cost Factor (PCF) is calculated separately for each Pipeline Cost Rate Class listed below. The formula for the PCF is: PCF = PP / S, where: PP = (P - A) x D, where: P =Estimated monthly cost of pipeline service calculated pursuant to Rate CGS D =Pipeline service allocation factor for the rate class as approved in the Company's most recent rate case, as follows: Issued By: David J.

C =Actual pipeline costs for the second preceding month. A2 =The adjustment (A) applied to the PP component in the second preceding month. S =Estimated Mcf or MMBtu for the rate class for the current billing month. The PCF is calculated to the nearest 0.0001 cent. The Pipeline Cost to be billed is determined by multiplying the Mcf or MMBtu used by the appropriate PCF. The Pipeline Cost is determined to the nearest whole cent. Issued By: David J.

The proposal is one where Atmos Energy shareholders will fund a percentage of the allowable expenses incurred annually, with a customer rate component providing the remainder of the funding. Following is ahigh-level, concept summary of the proposal. Atmos Energy Mid-Tex Division proposes to work with the communities it serves to develop the details of a new tariff and programs addressing conservation and energy efficiency. Synopsis: Voucher system to provide free energy savings materials and supplies to qualifying customers of Atmos Mid-Tex. Qualified Customers will receive up to one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500.00) worth of caulking, weather-stripping, sheathing, sealing, water heater blankets, related gas plumbing, and like materials, other energy saving devices such as clock-thermostats, set-back devices ("covered items°) from approved suppliers /retailers including necessary labor. Company will undertake efforts to enlist support from community groups, including its own Employee Action Program, to assist customers with installation. If it is determined that professional installation capabilities are necessary, the parties will agree on labor assistance amounts. Eli ibili Low Income -Low-income rate-payers that qualify for heating bill assistance through LIHEAP and other government energy efficiency program agencies and all agencies that distribute Atmos "Share the Warmth" funds. Agencies that allocate assistance funds denote customer as Low Income, a status that lasts for one year. Senior Citizen -Primary account holder can request eligibility through ATM call center or web-site. Customer provides primary SSN which is verified through Social Security Administration. And account holder that is or turns 65 years otd in that year becomes eligible. Funding Initial annual program funding will be at two million dollars ($2,000,000). Atmos Energy shareholders will contribute one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) to this initiative annually with ratepayers providing one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) per year. It is proposed that the program operate on an October 1 through September 30 year, with regulatory asset/liability accounting employed by Atmos to track the difference between program funding and qualifying program expenditures. No Atmos employee labor will be charged as a program expenditure. Administration: A third-party administrator will coordinate qualification of customers, voucher distribution, subsequent verification and reimbursement of eligible expenditures and general program administration. Program administration expenses will be funded from the annual approved budget. Issued By: David J.

We as Bedford citizens are apposed to this change because of the impact that it will have on our streets and our community as Covenant Christian Academy continues to expand. The traffic will come down Wayne and then flow out of several streets in our housing area. As a private academy we do not feel that Bedford should be responsible to support this financial commitment of our streets and additional police coverage. Our streets are already a short cut to avoid the stoplight on Brown Trail. We do not need additional traffic. We already have our own elementary school with the usual school high traffic times. I understand that the lights for the football field have already been taken off of this proposal. However, I would find it very hard to believe that the school would continue to accept this change long term. The impact on all of these issues will be born almost entirely by the Bedford Community, not the citizens of Colleyville. We therefore find that we must object to this proposed zoning change.

The applicant is requesting to rezone the property from the R40-Single Family Residential zoning district and the PUDC-Planned Unit Development Commercial to the PUDC-Planned Unit Development Commercial zoning district. The applicant is seeking the zoning change in order to expand the existing private school at 715 and 901 Cheek Sparger Road. Existing Conditions. The subject properties are currently platted as six lots. The properties located at 715 and 901 Cheek Sparger Road are currently developed as Colleyville Presbyterian Church and Covenant Christian Academy and are zoned PUDC-Planned Unit Development Commercial. The properties located at 3805 Wayne Drive and 909 Cheek Sparger are currently developed as single family homes. The properties located at 3809 and 3815 Wayne Drive are vacant lots. All lots adjacent to City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 7/30/2009 Agenda Briefing Continued (0-09-1725) Wayne Drive are currently zoned R40-Single Family Residential. The existing residences are proposed to be demolished as part of the development of the private school. Existing PUD Requirements. The applicant is requesting to repeal the existing PUDC zoning on the property approved by Ordinances 0-99-1139 and 0-06-1602. Ordinance 0-99-1139 permits the use of a church and private elementary and secondary school on the property as well as incidental athletic and recreational uses and any uses accessory to the school and church uses. Ordinance 0-06-1602 amended the site plan approved under 0-99-1139 by allowing atwo-story, 33,899 square foot school building contingent upon the removal of all portable buildings from the property and the completion of a traffic impact analysis. The draft ordinance repeals the previous two PUD ordinances for the property and resets the zoning of the subject properties to the current PUDC request. Permitted Uses. The applicant requests that the permitted uses be for a church, private elementary, secondary and high school. All other uses such as the athletic field and multi-purpose facility will be incidental and accessory to the principal uses of the school and church. Therefore, no commercial activity may take place on the property nor may any facilities be utilized or leased for private, amateur or professional athletic leagues not associated with the school. Proposed Development. The applicant proposes to add four new buildings and an athletic stadium to the existing elementary and secondary school campus which consists of two buildings and four portable structures. Maximum enrollment will consist of 600 students - 200 high school students and 400 elementary and secondary school students. The proposed new buildings include the following: - 48,000 square foot high school - 6,000 square foot library - 19,200 square foot multi-purpose building - 28,200 square foot grade school and administration buildings The proposed athletic field would provide bleachers on both sides of the field with enough seating to accommodate 200 spectators. Building Design. The applicant has provided proposed building elevations. These elevations have been added to the draft ordinance. Although all phase one and two buildings shown on the site plan are shown as single story, the applicant requests the option to build the buildings as two story buildings. All buildings will be restricted to the building area proposed by the applicant and all buildings will be required to meet the building height requirements of the Land Development Code. Development Schedule. The applicant proposes four phases of development based on the buildings shown on the site plan: Phase 1-Grade School/Administration (begin immediately and finish in 15 months) Phase 2- Multi-Purpose Facility/Library Construction (No construction start date determined) City of Colleyville Page 2 Printed on 7/30/2009 Agenda Briefing Continued (0-09-1725) Phase 3- Athletic Field (No construction start date determined) Phase 4- High School (No construction start date determined). Staff recommends that Phase 3 and Phase 4 require the approval of a detailed site and building elevation plan by the City Council prior to construction. Replat Requirement. Upon approval of this PUDC, the applicant will be required to replat the residential properties currently zoned R40-Single Family Residential into the existing school parcel. Removal of Portable Buildings. Upon completion of the Phase 1 buildings, the applicant proposes to remove the remaining four portable buildings from the property. Staff recommends if no building permit has been requested for Phase 1 construction as of September 1, 2010, that all portable buildings must be removed from the property no later than September 30, 2010. This provision has been added to the draft ordinance. Parking and Access. The applicant intends to provide 200 parking spaces as part of the phase one construction with an additional 30 spaces to be provided upon completion of the athletic field. The proposed parking meets the minimum requirements of the Land Development Code for all phases. However, staff recommends that, in order to ensure the availability of adequate parking, athletic events can only be held on the campus when school is not in session. This provision has been added to the draft ordinance. The campus will be accessed by a continuous 24 foot wide fire lane linking Cheek Sparger Road to Wayne Drive. According to the site plan, three driveways currently access Cheek Sparger Road. Two additional driveways are proposed along Wayne Drive. Traffic Impact. The developer is not required to provide a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA), since the development is not projected to generate in excess of 1,000 vehicle trips per day. The Institute of Transportation Engineers publication Trip Generation provides estimates of expected traffic generation based on land use. Data has been collected in the United States and Canada since the 1960's, primarily in suburban locations. Private Schools (K-12) are expected to generate 0.92 trips per morning per student and 0.62 trips per afternoon per student, on average. Based on these averages, a 600 student private school (K-12) would add approximately 936 vehicle trips per day to the surrounding roadways. However, as required by Ordinance 0-06-1602, a TIA was completed by Lee Engineering in 2007. The recommendations of the TIA included adding a center turn lane to Cheek Sparger Road in front of the school. This requirement was completed in 2008. Wayne Drive Improvements. The applicant proposes to improve the western half of Wayne Drive where it is adjacent to the proposed development in lieu of any perimeter street fees, which would include 15.5 foot curb and gutter street from the existing centerline. Athletic Field and Lighting. The proposed athletic field will provide seating for not more than 200 spectators and will not include any lighting. Therefore the applicant has agreed City of Colleyville Page 3 Printed on 7/30/2009 Agenda Briefing Continued (0-09-1725) that there will not be any athletic events held at night on the field. The applicant has provided a detailed exhibit of the proposed bleachers, which has been added to the draft ordinance. The bleachers will include no more than five rows of seating per each section. The applicant proposes to allow the installation of turf only as part of the Phase 1 construction. Staff recommends that any parking lot and exterior building/security lighting be directed away from residential areas with a minimum of 0.5 foot-candle illumination as measured at the property line. These provisions have been added to the draft ordinance. Master Plan. The Future Land Use Plan designates the portion of the subject property currently utilized for a private school for institutional uses. However, the portion that is currently zoned R40-Single Family Residential is designated for single family residential uses. Therefore, the rezoning request is not entirely consistent with the Future Land Use Plan. Open Space. The Land Development Code requires that the development provide a minimum of 20 percent open space. The proposed site plan for the development provides for 60 percent open space. The open space areas include two ponds, which will be located along Wayne Drive along with a playground that will be built adjacent to the grade school and administration building. Drainage and Stormwater Runoff. The developer has submitted a preliminary drainage analysis of the site, which has been reviewed and accepted by the City of Colleyville Engineering Department. According to the drainage analysis, the development will provide on-site detention. Details of the proposed drainage system and storm water retention ponds will be submitted as part of the platting and building permit process. Sidewalks and Trails. Sidewalks are required to be constructed along Cheek Sparger Road and Wayne Drive at the time the school is constructed. According to the Land Development Code a 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk is required to be built along Cheek Sparger Road as part of this development. Staff recommends that the existing 5-foot wide sidewalk along Cheek Sparger be extended west along Cheek Sparger Road in front of the existing school in order to complete the missing sections of the sidewalk. The developer will also be required to construct a 4-foot wide concrete sidewalk along the entire length of the Covenant Christian Academy frontage on Wayne Drive. This provision has been added to the draft ordinance. Fences, Walls and Screening. The applicant proposes to construct an eight (8) foot wood screening fence with masonry columns every 20 feet along the western boundary of the development adjacent to Lots 19 through 26 of the Camelot Estates Addition in the City of Bedford and adjacent to 3709 Wayne Drive prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the phase one buildings. Landscaping and Buffering. The applicant proposes to provide one minimum three (3) inch caliper tree per every 40 feet of street frontage and one five (5) gallon shrub per every City of Colleyville Page 4 Printed on 7/30/2009 Agenda Briefing Continued (0-09-1725) five (5) feet of street frontage along Cheek Sparger Road and Wayne Drive. The applicant also proposes to provide a 20 foot landscape buffer along the entire western property line adjacent to the City of Bedford. Staff recommends that a 20 foot landscape buffer be added next to 3709 Wayne Drive as well. Additionally, staff recommends that the landscape buffers contain live plant material of the evergreen variety, which is expected to grow to six (6) feet height in two (2) years, a minimum of three (3) feet in height at the time of installation and planted on six (6) foot centers. In the case of the buffer located along the western property line, the plantings would not be required until the athletic field is built. The buffer next to 3709 Wayne Drive would be planted prior to the completion of the Phase 1 construction. These provisions have been added to the draft ordinance. Tree Preservation. As required by Chapter 5-Tree Preservation of the Land Development Code, approval of a tree survey and mitigation plan will be required upon submittal of a building permit for any new structure. Infrastructure. Water and sanitary sewer services are available along adjacent rights-of-way. The developer is responsible for the extension of water and sewer service lines to the school. Fee Waiver Requests. The applicant is requesting waivers to impact fees and any tree mitigation requirements. Staff recommends that any requests for relief from these fees be addressed separately from this PUDC request and follow the variance procedures prescribed in the Land Development Code, and therefore are not included in the draft ordinance. Surrounding Development Trends. The surrounding properties represent a variety of uses. The property to the north is zoned PUDR-Planned Unit Development Residential and is developed as single family homes. Properties to the west are zoned CC1-Village Retail and are developed as offices in Colleyville while properties in Bedford are zoned and developed as single family homes. The properties to the east are zoned R-40-Single Family Residential and are developed as a single family homes or are vacant. Properties to south are developed as single family residences and are primarily located within the City of Bedford. Public Notification. Staff mailed notices to 24 adjacent property owners and a courtesy notice was sent to the City of Bedford regarding this request. Notice was published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram as required by state law and the Land Development Code. Staff has received one (1) letter of support from a Colleyville resident. Staff has also received four (4) letters of opposition from residents of the City of Colleyville and thirty-five (35) letters of opposition from residents of the City of Bedford. Planning and Zoning Commission Recommendation. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the request by a vote of 6-0 subject to the following recommendations: City of Colleyville Page 5 Printed on 7/31/2009 Agenda Briefing Continued (0.09-1725) • Library construction will be moved to Phase 2; • Allow athletic field turf only to be installed in Phase 1 construction; • No lighting shall be installed for the athletic field; • The 8 foot screening fence required along the western boundary of the property shall be constructed of wood but have a masonry column every 20 feet; • The bleachers for the stadium shall have no more than five rows of seats and shall be consistent with the submitted bleacher exhibit. The applicant has revised their plans to adhere to the above recommendations and the briefing and draft ordinance have been updated accordingly. Summary. Given the proposed educational uses, the proposed zoning change is not completely consistent with the Future Land Use Plan, as a portion of the subject properties is designated for single family uses. However, the Land Development Code allows educational uses within residential areas through the issuance of a Special Use Permit. Staff recommends that, given the potential neighborhood impacts and lack of a construction schedule of the athletic field and the high school, the third and fourth phases of the project be allowed only through the additional submittal of a detailed site and building elevation plan to be approved at the discretion of the City Council. Financial Impact It has been determined that there is no financial impact. Recommendation Approval, with the conditions stated within the draft ordinance.

My children attend public school. I ask that you consider the benefits neighboring homeowners ceap from a strong private school in the area. If you ask anyone in Argyle who has had a home on the market in the past few years, they will tell you that many families are moving to Argyle because of Liberty Christian School. While traffic, lighting and noise should certainly be considered, we too need to realize that what is good for CCA, may very well be good for our home values.

We object to the proposed expansion of Covenant Christian Academy since we did not move here sixteen years ago to be subject to a school circus. If this organization requires a major expansion, I suggest that they move some place else since they bring no value to the neighboring housing developments. The added traffic and lighting issues are not welcome. I will not be able to attend the 7/13/09 public hearing since I wiH be traveling on business, which is the reason for my e-mail. Hopefully, this proposed project will be canceled. Thank you for your valuable time and consideration. Regards, Jim S Cindy Griffith 4002 Plantation Court Colleyville, TX 76034 817-656-9127 A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. ~ yours 1nJust 2 easy stops! 7/13/2009 Letters of Opposition - Colleyville Residents To Whom it May Concern: As a Saddlebrook residents for the past I3 years, we are definitely opposed to the Covenant Christian Academy (CCA) plans to expand more buildings and to include an athletic stadium. One of the things we enjoy most about Saddlebrook is the quiet, residential atmosphere. That will be destroyed if the CCA expansion plans aze allowed. We live on Mockingbird Lane, which forms a "T" with Cheek Sparger Rd. This is right where CCA is located. The noise will be unbearable. We already get the noise from daily loudspeaker announcements from CCA. We were trying to be good neighbors by ignoring it, as it is during the daytime, so we overlooked the disturbance. We also overlooked the children yelling and screaming when they are out on the playground. However, loudspeaker announcements, yelling and screaming from hundreds of people at night is a different matter entirely. Not to mention the marching bands and loud music that play in athletic stadiums. The traffic has been a problem for years now due to CCA due to pick up and drop off times, but again, we overlooked it. But with stadium activities the traffic problem will increase drastically, especially in the evening when Saddlebrook families will be trying to get home. Remember, that during stadium activities, it wouldn't just be CCA students, parents, friends and faculty; it would also be opposing team students, parents, friends and faculty. The traffic noise and congestion would be hon~endous. Not to mention nonresident parking on the streets outside ours homes. Mockingbird Lane, Inwood and Rodeo streets would be the worst, but not the only streets in Saddlebrook effected. Saddlebrook has been a safe place for our families and pets to walk. Since there are NO sidewalks, we must walk in the streets. With stadium parking clogging both sides of our streets, the neighborhood will no longer be safe for people, children or pets to walls. Additionally, the increase in traffic congestion and parking would affect emergency vehicles (fire trucks, police cars, ambulances etc.) getting to the homes on this side of Saddlebrook. It is evident that this expansion would decrease propcrty values while increasing noise, increasing traffic, incns~sing litter, increasing pollution, increasing crime from kids "hanging around" i.e. cars being broken into, properly damage and so on. We also DO NOT want a 70' tower (much kss 4 towers!) that close to our home. It will be an eyesore to our beautiful Saddlebrook. Not to mention the lights themselves from the towers will invade on the privacy of the homes closest to Cheek Sparger Rd. Who wants to look out the windows at night to have stadium lights glaring in at them?

We received the notice of a public hearing concerning the request for rezoning by Keith Squires. After reviewing the proposed use for the land as described in the request for rezoning, we have decided that as the home owners and with consideration for our tenants, future tenants and the neighbors who live on the property adjoining the proposed rezoning request we are voicing our opposition to this request for rezoning. We do feel that an athletic field with 4 seventy feet high lights positioned behind residential homes would create too much light in the evening hours when residents are home relaxing after a hard day at work which would not serve the bed interest of the home owners. Additionally, we feel the noise created by activity at the athletic field would be too loud for the residential climate of the home owners. The homes in the area adjacent to the proposed rezoning have been there for 30 years and should have the right to preserve their peaceful and tranquil living environment. A copy of our objection will be sent to the Bedford Planning and Zoning Commission. Thank you, Respectfully, ~ ~~~ / N~!!/~1~0' Richard C. and R y J.

Commission: We in the Bedford community that adjoins the Colleyville Covenant Christian Academy ~~: Colkyville Presbyterian Church Addition on the west side beg and pray that you do not allow a Zoain~g change in the zoning case #ZC09-004 Requested by Keith Squires. They changed the dme so no one would know it was the same place. Probably wouldn't have known until the City of Bedford sent the protest form around. This school has been planning, revising, and lying about the property for the past two years. Some of my neighbors and I have been to city council meeting in the past to have a deaf esa turned on our protests. The school frequently revises the plan, and no one knows what they wiD come up with at the next meeting. The temporary buildings were supposed to be removed by August 2008. That all didn't happen. Under the protest of many of the long time Colleyvilk residents that lived on Wayne Street, they were begrudgingly coerced into selling their property and moving somewhere else. Now, the school is planning to put lights on the football field. That will be great to enjoy in our backyards in the evening when it looks like daylight. The football field is now where the second addition of a school building was supposed to have been. Again, yet another change. Their plan is a moving target. How could anyone ever know what the final plan will look like? I know that Colkyville looks to this ixoperty as a large tax base, however, this is a and has always been a residential area until the "Big Bad Gorilk" moved in and what choice does anyone have but to live here with a Bad Taste in our mouth. Talk about a bad neighbor! They moved in a quietly embeddod themselves in the community and then started to expand without any consideration of the surrounding property other than to force out its long term residents. The Northwest end of the football field looked like a garbage dump with all of the trash that was tossed in that area. This was shown in a slide show presentation at one of the council meetings and just fell on deaf ears. Please do what you know is right and doa't reduce our property values and serenity by Allowing a zoning change.

City of Colieyviile - 200 Main St. Re: Zoning Case No. ZC09-004 As Bedford residents who will be directly affected by this plan, we are writing to express our concerns with the re-zoning and expansion proposal for athletic fields as submitted by Colleyviile's Christian Covenant Academy School . We live on Brestol Ct. W. in Bedford and the property involved/owned by the school is just over our back fence. We have been kept abreast of meetings by the CCA neighbors association since the beginning of the announced proposal by the school. We are and always have been opposed to this proposed athletic field for many reasons including bss of value of our home and property... and, especially now in learning that the latest proposal plan we received inducted the use of stadium lights which we had been told previously would not be used. Please note that even when this school has an outdoor event, which we assume may be a field day or other daytime function, the use of their PA system in making announcements beginning in the early morning hours on a weekday is very loud and annoying. This is not to mention how the use of fields for weekend and evening games would compound the problem, especially coupled with the use of stadium lights and kwd speaker systems. In additwn, we also are concerned with the increased traffic on Wayne Ct. which crosses Brestol Ct. for those driving to attend these games or activities. As Bedford residents - we hope you will also make note of our concerns before approving the request of the school for this re-zoning and expansion. Thank you so much for your attention in this matter. Sincerely, .~/.r.~t-~f~ ~~ Wanda "Bobby Hawkins ~,~F F,~ U 2 ~J S~ ~ ' ~~,_.~ RECEIVED www.cotmidckks.or~ JUL X 4 2009 f Per .............

CITY OF COLLEYVILLE 100 Main St. Colleyville, TX 76034 Dear Friends: My family and I have lived, as neighbors, in genuine peace with those in and of Covenant Christian Academy, for many years. As a matter of fact, I have several friends on the faculty there. Furthermore, I am a genuine friend of private education. Thus, my family has absolutely NO animosity toward the school nor its people. However, as a neighbor living within a "stones throw"-less than a full city block--of the campus we hereby oppose and do protest the academy's planned expansion. The noise, traffic, and huge lights will not lend toward the peace and quiet we have enjoyed since the beginning of this area. Quite to the contrary, we anticipate a profound disruption of the historical peace and quite should the planned expansion be approved.

I live at the corner of Harwood Terrace and Wayne which means the increased traffic exiting the proposed expansion can come down Wayne Dr. and cut through Harwood Terrace as an alternate route instead of entering from and dispersing to Cheek-Sparger. 'This is a HUGE problem. Already there are increasing problems trying to exit my home in the morning due to the traffic, including buses coming down the road. I have had my fence and landscape numerously run into from traffic ignoring the speed limit and stop signs currently in place. I have filed police reports to the city of Bedford on occasion. Our neighborhood should not become a thoroughfare for the convenience of this school. With these new exit routes it will only get worse as people become more familiar with "our wonderful little shortcut." Already there have been days were the loud speakers from outdoor events at the school sound like they are in my back yard. Public events held on their expanded property will only increase the frequency of this issue. On top on it all now they are proposing four 70 foot tower stadium lights. All of our yards and homes to the south of this project will be encroached upon with light pollution. We have been good neighbors to Bedford Heights Elementary and have dealt with increased traffic during school times. We have done the same with the increased traffic on Cheek-Sparger due to Covenant Christian Academy. However bringing this into our neighborhood dsy aed might is simply not acceptable. There are many families who will not benefit from the increased traffic, noise and light intrusion being proposed.

Yours trul J ley erry cc City of Bedford RECEIVED JUL 1 7 2009 Statement of Planning Objectives ATTACHMENT TO PUD-C ZONING CHANGE APPLICATION OF COVENANT CHRISTIAN ACADEMY AND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN AMERICA - COLLEYVILLE, TEXAS The property for which this proposed zoning is to occur is located at the southwest corner of Cheek Sparger Road and Wayne Drive. The overall 17.6734 acre piece of property is comprised of numerous individual lots zoned for both PUD-C and R-40 uses (see attached legal description). It is the intent of this zoning application to redact the current zoning for the property and rezone the property into one zoning classification (PUD-C) to be used primarily for church and educational use as described below: PERMITTED USES 1. Church and other uses associated with churches, such as worship activities, Sunday School, and church related educational purposes. 2. Private primary and secondary school purposes. 3. Recreational and athletic purposes associated with uses 1. and 2. above. 4. Any combination of the permitted uses and any accessory uses incidental and secondary to the allowed principal uses. STATEMENT OF PLANNING OBJECTIVES Covenant Christian Academy is a highly respected educational institute serving students in and around Colleyville since 1972. The objective of this PUD-C request is to move forward improving the Physical Plant so as to better serve the students and faculty within our school with improvements in our academic, athletic and recreational facilities. Grade school classrooms are planned with the appropriate recreational areas appropriate to grade levels. Athletic field improvements are also included to promote on campus training, practice and game facilities for our school teams as well as outreach opportunities for serving assorted local clubs and associations. Athletic field shall be lighted for nighttime use. Finally, a future high school building and an enclosed multi- purpose facility is planned as part of our long-term goals. Upon grant of the zoning change requested herein, it is anticipated that the main Property Owners (Covenant Christian Academy - "CCA") will immediately move forward with a replat request (the replat may proceed concurrent with zoning request). The existing PUD-C required the removal of the portable classroom buildings and the construction of permanent structures to house the students within a certain timeframe. Two of the portable buildings have already been removed in accordance with current PUD requirements. This request will incorporate that condition into our PUD-C. Construction of the three (3) grade school buildings will begin almost immediately (Phase 1). These initial improvements will provide classroom and administration space necessary to eliminate the existing portable classroom buildings. While those portable buildings are not on CCA-owned property and are located outside of the area of our PUD-C request, the removal of those buildings is herein represented as a condition of our request. ATTACHMENT TO PUD-C ZONING CHANGE APPLICATION PAGE I Realize that the proposed development of this property is planned to provide an improved learning atmosphere for the existing student base including a library, computer lab, dedicated art studio, music room, and science lab. The development is not intended to accommodate an influx of additional students in excess of the current enrollment. Per the Site Plan, the number of students that attend CCA is not expected to significantly increase upon project completion. Presbyterian Church in America -Colleyville, Texas ("Colleyville Presbyterian") was the entity that started CCA. The school became independent of the church in 1999. CCA has been in operation for many years and has been a good neighbor and citizen in the City of Colleyville. Numerous residents of the community have contributed vast amounts of time and monetary resources to further this private school. CCA owns the majority of the property along the west side of Wayne Drive with the exception of Lots 1 and Lot 5 (Southgate Addition, Block 3). Lot 1 is currently under contract to CCA and is apart of this PUD. The original 10 acre portion of CCA property was purchased with the anticipation of the construction of school facilities on the Properly. This zoning change is necessitated as a result of the City's zoning ordinance which does not allow additional construction of educational facilities on the CCA property without approving a new PD Development. The City's zoning ordinance was instituted just after the original property was purchased. The use of the Property has long been planned and has been existent for a number of years. The requested change is therefore consistent with the existing use of the Property. Conversion of the existing Property of CCA into its proposed use is logical and does not take other commercial property of the City out of use for retail and other higher commercial uses as desired by the City of Colleyville. City of Bedford residential neighborhoods are located to the west and south of this development. The athletic field and treed area on the southern portion of the property (trees to remain) serve as a buffer to these residential areas and are certainly compatible with adjoining uses. The existing athletic field will remain in approximately the same location, thus having little additional effect on the neighbors in Bedford. These same areas will also easily satisfy any requirements for open space with might be associated with this zoning request. The area east of Wayne Drive, across the street from this Property, is comprised of vacant land zoned for Agricultural use and two remaining residential homes (zoned R-40). The Saddlebrook Subdivision is located north of this property across Cheek Sparger Road (zoned PUD-R). Prior zoning changes (PUD's) on this property attempted to satisfy CCA requirements, but contained numerous concessions requested by adjoining property owners. Since the most recent PUD-C, CCA has acquired additional properties along Wayne Drive, thus eliminating all but one of the prior adjacent property owners. This PUD-C addresses the rezoning of the recently acquired and original CCA and Colleyville Presbyterian property as well as those that are to be acquired (Lot 1). DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE The stages and phases of development are planned as follows: ATTACHMENT TO PUD-C ZONING CHANGE APPLICATION PAGE 2 Phase 1 - Grade School Construction (begin immediately and finish in approximately 15 months) Phase 2 - Multi-Purpose Facility Construction (no completion date established) Phase 3 - Athletic Field (no completion date established) Phase 4 - High School (no completion date established) * Realize that much of the timing of construction will be dependent on fund raising activities. The Applicant requests that no specific deadlines or time frames be associated with this Development Schedule. STATEMENT OF PROPOSED OWNERSHIP The ownership of the Property will not change other than the fact that Lot 1 is expected to be acquired by CCA contingent upon zoning approval. STATEMENT OF UTILITIES/INFRASTRUCTURE TO BE PROVIDED All major utilities, water, sewer and drainage are either already on or immediately adjacent to all of the Property. The attached preliminary engineering drawings detail the proposed water, sewer and drainage infrastructure that will be constructed to accommodate the proposed development of this property. Required easements for all utilities around and on the Site either already exist or will be provided by Plat or separate instrument as necessary. Regarding roadway infrastructure, CCA intends to improve Wayne Drive for its entire length up to just south of the first driveway entrance (approximately 625 Linear feet). This will be a City regulation street (30' f-f width) with 4' standard sidewalk along the west parkway. Based on conversations with City Staff, we realize that we would be required to construct our half of the required 30' City street section for our entire frontage along Wayne Drive (or pay perimeter street fees). What we have proposed is 625 feet of the full street section while our frontage is only 1,100 feet. Recent improvements to Cheek Sparger Road have already been made by CCA as required by the earlier PUD-C. IMPACT FEES: Granting of this request will not introduce additional students to this location. The classrooms in Phase 1 will replace the existing classrooms currently located in the Portable Buildings. No net increase in impact will be felt from these improvements as we are simply relocating existing students into the new, larger classroom and appropriate educational spaces. By this application we are requesting following consideration and adjustment on the applicable impact fees: ATTACHMENT TO PUD-C ZONING CHANGE APPLICATION PAGE 3 1) Roadway Impact and Perimeter Street Fees: Full impact fee credit allowed for the amount of road way improvement both to Wayne Drive as illustrated in this request as well as the previous substantial improvements along Cheeksparger Drive. We request that the required street and sidewalk construction be limited to what is shown on our Site/Concept Plan and related engineering plans. 2) Parkland Dedication Fees (if any apply): Full impact fee credit shall be allowed for the playground/recreational areas and the athletic field improvements contained within this request. 3) Water and Sanitary Sewer (Builder) Impact Fees: Full impact fee credit shall be allowed for the installation of the new 8" water line along the full length of property along Wayne Drive. This water line is replacing an existing 2" water line. Again, the impact from the introduction of these new classroom buildings will be totally offset by the elimination of the impact now present with the portable classroom buildings to be removed from site. 4) Tree Mitigation Fees: Full tree mitigation fee credit shall be allowed mainly due to the effort taken to preserve the majority of the existing trees located at the southwest corner of the properly. Over 90% of the existing trees on the overall property are to be retained. This instrument is attached to an incorporated into the zoning application signed by the Property Owners and their representative.

Reading and Public Hearing Eric and Jana Schultz, applicants and property owners, are requesting an appeal regarding the denial to have the sidewalk escrow refunded. Per the requirements of Ordinance 0-09-1712, the objection to the ordinance received regarding a refund for the sidewalk escrow for the property referenced above was not approved. The decision was made by City staff pursuant to Section 9.12(F) 9 ii, of the Colleyville Land Development Code, which states the following regarding rights relative to the escrowed funds: "ii. If an objection is filed pursuant to the previous subsection, the Director of Community Development shall decide, within thirty (30) days, if the circumstances involving the particular lot and surrounding Sidewalk District reasonably require a return of the escrowed funds. The owner of the lot may appeal the decision of the Director of City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 7/Y7izouy Agenda Briefing Continued (R-09-3118) Community Development by filing a written objection, explaining the owner's argument and requesting for a hearing before the City Council, with the City Secretary not later than ten (10) days after the Director of Community Development's decision. After hearing the lot owner's objections, City Council may either refund the escrowed money or deny the refund and order the funds to be used for future sidewalk construction on that lot or in that sidewalk district. " The determination made by City staff was based strictly upon the recommendations of the Supplemental Sidewalk System Map. For example, if the map recommends that no sidewalk be built along a street, it was determined that the property owner of the parcel along said street be issued a refund of existing escrowed sidewalk funds. However, if the map recommends the option of escrow .payment in lieu of construction or that a new sidewalk must be built, it was determined that any existing sidewalk escrows should remain in place to be utilized for future sidewalk construction within the neighborhood district. District Neighborhood. If City Council denies the refund, the escrow will be available for any future sidewalks or trails located within District Neighborhood Number 6. Financial Impact It has been determined that the financial impact would be a refund of $1,960.00. Recommendation Denial City of Colleyville Page 2 Printed on 7/27/2009 Location Map Applicant's Request June 8th, 2009 City of Colleyville Community Development Department ATTIV: Sidewalk Escrows 100 Main St Colleyville, TX 76034 To Whom It May Concern: On May 28n', I received a denial letter for recouping my sidewalk escrow monies, and would like this document to serve as an appeal letter. About 8 years ago, I purchased the lot located at 1801 Prince Meadow Dr Colleyville, TX 76034. Upon completion of my home, I paid to have the sidewalk in front of my house constructed and escrowed monies for a potential, future sidewalk adjacent to my property (at the entrance of the neiyhborhood, beyond my property line). At the time, I felt very strongly that I shouldn't be responsible for paying to have a sidewalk built, which was at the entrance of the neighborhood, and not on my property. Today, I am more strongly against my escrowed funds potentially being utilized to fund other sidewalks in the community. After 8 years and ample time to construct the adjacent sidewalk, I am requesting a full refund of the escrowed monies. Sincerely, ~.~__ ~ ,_~ ~ >r C.. ~. w..

I can send it if this is acceptable? I have modified it to adjust for the issues you raised and to make sure no new taxes arise as is now being alleged. This should be addressed and funded by the T and state as it is them executing the taking. My home value has dropped $30k because of the rail issue. This is contrary to the appraisal district valuation.

As the original filer, I wish to submit these in accordance with the city charter meaning without alteration as to meaning or effect in the opinion of the person filing the petition. You had previously represented to your client that items two (2) and (4) of the ordinance might not be enforceable by the city and that the resolution included reference to an misidentified prier resolution. As a novice in this arena, I believe I have corrected these without alteration as to meaning or effect of the petitions. While I hold this belief, I wish to submit them to you only at this time for determination as to whether the corrections are sufficient in your client's opinion as to the enforceability of the ordinance and accuracy of the numeration of the prior ordinance. I reserve the right to modify the petitions in accordance with the city charter. Is this an acceptable proposal to initiate this exchange? M.
