Title
Discussion of health insurance renewal and bid process
Explanation
This item provides an opportunity for City Council and staff discussion of the health
insurance renewal and bid process.
In preparing for the Fiscal Year 2010 budget, staff met with United Healthcare (UHC) to
receive the preliminary projected health insurance rate, which UHC estimated as an
increase of 20%, or $315,489 for all funds. In consideration of rising costs, staff met with
the City's new benefits consultant, Cooper Corporate Solutions (Cooper), to consider
several options including plan design changes.
This evaluation included a review of the current plan design, group demographics, claim to
premium loss ratios and payment by benefit categories. The current health insurance plan
includes one plan design, which consists of a $1,500 deductible, 100% coinsurance, $15
office visit copay, and a maximum out-of-pocket deductible of $1,500. This plan is
supplemented by a health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) in which the City reimburses
an employee for $1,250 of the deductible expense after s/he pays the first $250.
The claims analysis is based on 12 months of data from April 2008 through March 2009.
The average number of participants in the plan, during this time period, was estimated at
178 employees and 255 dependents. The average claim to premium ratio was
approximately 83% and includes several months of large claims such as October 2008 -
96%, December 2008 - 100%, February 2009 - 81 %, and March 2009 - 111 %.
Pharmaceutical payments top the list as the highest claim dollar cost for a benefit category
followed by outpatient professional services of doctors and hospitals and by payments for
specialist visits. The group also experienced six large claims over $30,000 each with the
highest at $126,000, for a total large claim cost of $381,000.
City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 5/14/2009
Agenda Briefing Continued
Comparatively, the City's claim to premium ratio was 72% in 2007 and 84% in 2008. United
Healthcare's initial renewal offers for those years were 5.5% and 19.4%, respectively.
However, the final accepted renewals were negotiated to 0.03% and -1.01 % for the same
years. (Although UHC agreed to a 1.01 % decrease in 2008, the City incurred an increase
of 7.55% due to the cost of implementing an HRA.) The target claim to premium ratio is
approximately 80%.
The HRA was implemented in Fiscal Year 2009 as a tool to maintain the employee
deductible expense at $250, the lowest of our comparison cities. Staff and the Employee
Benefits Committee selected a plan design that increased the actual individual deductible to
$1,500; however, the City funded reimbursement of $1,250 of this cost through the HRA.
The HRA claims experience as of March 31, 2009, is $35,294, which is a savings of
$120,430 when compared to the $155,724 cost of six months of premium expense on the
renewal of the FY 2008 plan not selected. Staff anticipates that this year's funding of the
HRA, budgeted at 35% of maximum potential exposure, will be sufficient for the remainder
of FY 2009 claims.
Staff met with the Employee Benefits Committee to discuss how the current benefit plans
are performing. Based on the data and significance of the projected rate increase, staff
initiated the bid process in May 2009. Staff will work with Cooper to negotiate with United
Healthcare and other vendors for an acceptable rate and to analyze possible plan design
changes that could further reduce costs. Design changes could include eliminating copays,
introducing preventative care coverage of 100%, and adjusting subsidy levels for spouses.
Any design changes will be reviewed by the Employee Benefits Committee and the City
Manager's Office. Bid proposals will be reviewed in June 2009. Staff anticipates a final
presentation with recommendations to City Council in July 2009.
As previously stated, the City retained a new benefits consultant, Cooper Corporate
Solutions, as of April 24, 2009. Staff made the decision to change consultants due to the
additional services offered including actuarial expertise and a funded wellness program.
Cooper Corporate Solutions is the insurance brokerage division of the Cooper Aerobics
Company. This organization offers the City a way to help control health care costs and
improve employee health through the combination of employee benefits consulting and a
tailored wellness program. For no additional commission over the current rate, Cooper
allocates a percentage of the city-paid commission dollars toward funding a wellness
program for the City, an expense previously funded out of the General Fund at $20,000.
Beginning in June 2009, Cooper will engage the Employee Wellness Committee to design a
program that is appropriate for and appreciated by Colleyville employees. Representatives
of Cooper will be present and available to answer questions.

Title
Update regarding objections received to changes to the escrow policy for sidewalks as
amended by Ordinance 0-09-1712
Explanation
The purpose of this item is to update the City Council on the status of changes to the
sidewalk escrow policy, specifically as they relate to escrowed sidewalk funds that existed
prior to approval of the new escrow policy. The changes were approved by the City Council
through Ordinance 0-09-1712 on March 3, 2009 and codified in Section 9.12 of the Land
Development Code.
Section 9.12(F)9 of the of new policy states the following regarding escrow funds:
All funds currently escrowed in lieu of sidewalk construction before the
effective date of this Ordinance are subject to expenditure under this
Ordinance unless a written objection is filed, by the owner of the lot for which
the funds are escrowed, with the Director of Community Development within
thirty (30) days after notice of this Ordinance is received. Notice of this
Ordinance shall be sent to the current owner of the lot for which the funds are
escrowed at the address listed in the most recent tax rolls of the City. If the
person receiving notice under this subsection is not the current owner, then
they must immediately notify the City of the person who purchased the
property and provide the City with the address of that person.
ii. If an objection is filed pursuant to the previous subsection, the Director of
Community Development shall decide, within thirty (30) days, if the
City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 5/15/2009
Agenda Brieirnp Continued
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 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.
iii. This Ordinance shall apply to any and all funds paid into the sidewalk escrow
fund in lieu of sidewalk construction after the effective date of this Ordinance.
As required by this section, a notice of the changes was sent on March 24, 2009 to 62
current property owners of lots for which funds were escrowed prior to passage of
Ordinance 0-09-1712. The total funds escrowed for these properties is $216,795.71. The
property owners were given until April 30, 2009, to return their written objections to staff. As
of April 30, 2009 a total of 26 responses were received by staff. The total funds escrowed
for the 26 respondents is $82,662.67.
City staff, including the City Manager, Assistant City Manager, Finance Director, Public
Works Director and the Community Development Director, met to review the 26 objections
in order to determine whether any escrowed funds should be returned to the property
owners. It was determined that refunds should be based upon the Supplemental Sidewalk
System Map or any case where a sidewalk exists along a property that also has funds
escrowed for sidewalks. The Supplemental Sidewalk System Map essentially contains
three recommendations for sidewalks along all City streets: (1) Sidewalk construction is
required; (2) Escrow of funds is an option in lieu of construction; and (3) Sidewalk
construction is not required. In a case where the property requesting a refund was located
along a street where the map recommended that no sidewalks be required, staff
recommends that the property should receive a refund as stipulated in Ordinance
0-09-1712.
Therefore, staff recommends that, unless directed otherwise by the City Council, a total of
11 property owners be refunded a total of $25,348.32. According to the new escrow policy,
staff has until May 30, 2009 to notify the 26 respondents of the final decision. Staff
recommends that refund checks be processed and sent to the 11 property owners by the
end of May. Respondents that do not receive a refund will have 10 days to file a written
appeal with the City Secretary in order to appear before the City Council.
Additionally, it is anticipated that a sidewalk escrow balance of $191,447.39 will be available
for future construction, within the sidewalk escrow district neighborhoods, at the City
Council's discretion.
Given the potentially large number of appeals that may be placed upon a future City Council
agenda, staff is seeking direction from the City Council regarding how the Council would
prefer to consider the appeals.

Letter Mailed to Property Owners
~,;~ ~ ~~
Dear Colleyville Property Owner:
On Tuesday, March 3, 2009, the City Council voted to amend Chapter 9 -Subdivision
Design and Public Facilities in the Land Development Code regarding sidewalks. A copy
of Ordinance 0-09-1712 approving the amendments is attached. A major component of
the amendments was the addition of a sidewalk escrow policy. Sidewalk monies that are
paid into an escrow fund in lieu of construction can now, as a result of the amendments, be
spent for construction of new sidewalks adjacent to properties other than the property for
which the money was originally escrowed provided that those properties are located within
the same neighborhood district. A copy of this map is attached and is available on the web
at www:colle~rvlle.com as well.
The reason you are being notified is that City records indicate that there are currently
funds escrowed for future sidewalk construction adjacent to your property referenced
above. The new amendments, codified in Section 9.12(F)9 of the Colleyville Land
Development Code, state the following regarding your rights relative to the escrowed
funds:
"i. All funds currently escrowed in lieu of sidewalk construction before the effective date
of this Ordinance are subject to expenditure under this Ordinance unless a written
objection is filed, by the owner of the lot for which the funds are escrowed, with the
Director of Community Development within thirty (30) days after notice of this
Ordinance is received. Notice of this Ordinance shall be sent to the current owner
of the lot for which the funds are escrowed at the address listed in the most recent
tax rolls of the City. If the person receiving notice under this subsection is not the
current owner, then they must immediately notify the City of the person who
purchased the property and provide the City with the address of that person.
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 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."

Matthew C. G. Boyle
City Attorney
Exhibit "A"
. '~
A. General Requirement -The developer of a subdivision shall install all water, sewer, street,
sidewalk and drainage improvements, and any other facilities required by this Land
Development Code, which are necessary for the proper development of the subdivision. The
design, construction and inspection of any public facilities shall be a cost to the developer,
unless the City has entered into an agreement for cost sharing. All such facilities shall be
designed and constructed in accordance with the criteria contained in this Land Development
Code and be in conformance with the general layout of the City of Colleyville Master Land
Use Plan and Capital Improvements Plan. The public facility requirement of this section shall
be applicable to the upgrading of any existing facilities which do not meet current standards.
B. Apportionment of Infrastructure Costs - As a condition of the approval of a development, the
developer's portion of the costs may not exceed the amount required for infrastructure
improvements that are roughly proportionate to the projected impact of the proposed
development, as determined by a professional engineer, licensed in the State of Texas, and
who is retained by the City of Colleyville.
1. In making the rough proportionality determination, consideration shall be given to the
availability of adequate and minimum levels of public facilities and accessibility to the site
for delivery of emergency services.
2. The professional engineer making the proportionality determination may rely on
categorical findings from comparable public improvement projects for establishing a cost
basis. The basis used for determining estimated costs shall be revised annually on July
1 by the Colleyville Engineering Department.
3. A developer who disputes the determination by said professional engineer may appeal to
the City Council and present testimony and evidence in support of the appeal. The
appeal shall be written and filed with the City Secretary within ten (10) days after the date
action taken by the Planning and Zoning Commission on the development proposal. The
developer shall not be required to waive the right to appeal as a condition of approval of
the development project.
C. Optional Escrow Provision -Where, in the opinion of the City, construction of a required
public improvement should be deferred to a future date, the developer shall place in escrow
with the City, an amount equal to the estimated cost of the improvements, as determined by
the City Engineer. The Planning and Zoning Commission or City Council may consider an
alternate arrangement when appropriate. Any escrow related to the construction of sidewalks
shall adhere to the requirements set forth in Section F.
D. City Participation in Over-Sizing -Where over-sizing of a public improvement is required by
the Comprehensive Master Plan, Thoroughfare Plan, Water or Sewer Capital Improvements
Plan or other planning document adopted by the City, City participation shall be in
accordance with the provisions of any applicable Impact Fee Ordinance or City-Developer
Agreement, which has been approved by the City Council.
E. Public Easements -All public improvements shall be constructed within easements or rights-
of-way that have been dedicated for public use. The width of an easement or right-of-way
shall be in accordance with the specifications contained elsewhere in this Land Development
Code.
F. Escrow Policy for Sidewalks
1. Request for Escrow
Whenever these regulations require a property owner to construct a sidewalk for a
dwelling unit, the property owner may petition the City for deposit of an escrowed
amount, as established in this Section, in lieu of the required construction of a
sidewalk. The Director of Public Works or the Director of Community Development
shall determine whether the escrow is reasonable in lieu of the obligation to construct
the improvement based on the Supplemental Sidewalk System Map. If an escrow
request is denied, then the applicant may appeal that denial to the Planning and
Zoning Commission if a written request for appeal is received by the Director of
Public Works or the Director of Community Development within ten (10) days of the
denial. The decision of the Planning and Zoning Commission shall be final.
2. Deposit with the City
Whenever the City agrees to accept escrow deposits in lieu of construction by the
owner of the property under these regulations, the property owner or developer shall
deposit an amount equal to his share of the costs of design and construction in
escrow with the City. This amount shall be paid prior to release of construction plans
by the Director of Public Works. The obligations and responsibilities of the property
owner shall become those of the property owner's transferees, heirs, successors,
and assigns; and the liability therefore shall be joint and several.
3. Determination of Escrow Amount
The amount of the escrow shall be determined by using the average of the
comparable bids awarded by the City in the preceding six (6) months for sidewalk
design and construction or, if none exist, then current market value of the design and
construction of a sidewalk in the City, to be determined by the Director of Public
Works. The determination shall be based on reasonable current market value made
as of the time the escrow is due.
4. Termination of Escrow
Escrows fees paid to the City pursuant to this Section shall be held for a period of ten
(10) years from the date of the deposit. If the City has not expended such funds on a
sidewalk with the Sidewalk District of the dwelling unit that deposited the sidewalk
escrow fee, and upon written request from the original party making the deposit, such
funds shall be returned to the original party that paid the escrow fees with accrued
interest, subject to the limitations in Subsection 6. Such return does not remove any
obligations of the dwelling unit for construction of required improvement(s) if a
building permit is applied for.
5. Refund
If any public improvement for which escrow is deposited is constructed or is
reconstructed by another governmental authority at no cost to the City, the escrow
funds and accrued interest shall be refunded to the property owner or developer after
completion and acceptance of the public improvements. In the event that a portion of
the cost is borne by the City and the other portion of the cost by another
governmental authority, the difference between the owner's actual proportionate cost
and the escrow funds, including accrued interest, if any, shall be refunded after
completion and acceptance of the improvements.
6. Interest Limitation
If for any reason money is refunded within six (6) months of deposit, only the principal
will be refunded. Monies returned after this date will be refunded with interest
accrued calculated at one percent (1 %) less than the rate of actual earnings received
on the escrowed funds.
7. Waiver of Escrow
The Developer may apply to the Planning and Zoning Commission for a waiver of the
requirement to construct a sidewalk or escrow funds in lieu of construction. The
decision of the Planning and Zoning Commission is final.
8. Use of Escrow Funds
Six (6) Sidewalk Districts are hereby established throughout the City. These districts
shall share the same boundaries as the six (6) neighborhoods depicted on the
Neighborhood Boundary Map in the 2004 - 2025 Colleyville Plan. The Sidewalk
Districts are established so that sidewalk escrow funds will be expended within
sufficient proximity to the dwelling unit that deposited the sidewalk escrow fee so as
to reasonably benefit that dwelling unit. Funds escrowed pursuant to this Section
shall be expended on design and construction of sidewalks located at any place
within the same Sidewalk District as the dwelling unit depositing the sidewalk escrow
fee.
9. Existing Escrow Funds
All funds currently escrowed in lieu of sidewalk construction before the effective
date of this Ordinance are subject to expenditure under this Ordinance unless a
written objection is filed, by the owner of the lot for which the funds are escrowed,
with the Director of Community Development within thirty (30) days after notice of
this Ordinance is received. Notice of this Ordinance shall be sent to the current
owner of the lot for which the funds are escrowed at the address listed in the
most recent tax rolls of the City. If the person receiving notice under this
subsection is not the current owner, then they must immediately notify the City of
the person who purchased the property and provide the City with the address of
that person.
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 Community Development by filing a written
objection, explaining the owner's argument and requesting for a hearing before

Title
Presentation of the Monthly Financial Report -April 2009
Explanation
General Fund
The percentage of current year taxes collected is slightly behind that of April 2008. In
December 2008, the City Council adopted a new franchise agreement with Atmos Gas
which provided for quarterly payments with the first payment to be received on May 15,
2009. In the past, payments were received annually. Recently, Atmos Gas proposed an
amendment to the franchise agreement adopted in December 2008, that would revert the
payments back to an annual basis. Atmos Gas sent an annual payment of $374,275 under
the prior franchise agreement terms that will be retained due to the anticipated amendment.
Sales tax revenue received in April was down $10,286 which is 6.86% under the amount
received in April 2008. Two residential building permits were issued in April, as compared
to ten issued in April 2008. Permit revenues through April 2009 are $319,000 less than
those received through April 2008, and $415,000 less than projected through April 2009.
The average amount expended by the General Fund departments at the end of April 2009
is 48.4% of the total appropriation, verses 49.0% which was projected to be spent.
Utility Fund
Water usage increased as compared to the amount sold through April 2008. All building
related revenues (water installation, sewer installation and engineering charges) are down.
The average amount expended by the Utility Fund departments at the end of April 2009 is
52.1 % of the total appropriation, verses 52.1 % which was projected to be spent.

LOGIC Newsletter
March 2009
The U.S. economy is now going through the
steepest two-quarter decline in real GDP
in more than 50 years. The Fed's targeted
measures have apparently managed to stem
further tightening in credit though conditions
still remain very tight. Any potential for recovery
must remain tentative until there is some reversal
of heightened business caution. Of this, there
is no evidence so far: the pullback in business
investment remains intense and labor markets
are in free fall.
All that said, three developments provide
confidence that the most intense phase of
economic weakness has passed. First, March
did mark the third consecutive gain in the ISM
manufacturing index from December's low of
32.9. While the gains have been very modest,
the ISM, once it turns, generally has trended in
the same direction historically. Second, and most
importantly, consumer spending is on track for
approximately a 1 % gain in the first quarter after
declines averaging -4% in the third and fourth
quarters of 2008. To be sure, this has benefited
from temporary factors such as earlier declines in
gas prices and elevated tax refunds owing in part
to capital losses. However, additional temporary
benefit from the enacted stimulus package will
support consumer spending going forward. If
indeed consumer spending has stabilized, it is a
critical development: in all past recessions, the
consumer has led labor markets and business
investment. Third, intriguingly, the housing
sector may have finally found a bottom, aided
by unusually low mortgage rates. Existing, new
and pending home sales were all up in February,
spurred in part by record high affordability and
slightly better credit. Single-family housing
permits, a reliable indicator of turning points, also
surged 16.1% month-on-month in February.
Stimulus is key to any recovery. On monetary
policy, the efficacy of the Fed's focus on both
balance sheet expansion and change in the
composition of the balance sheet toward risk
assets will determine how quickly financial
conditions can ease. Fiscal stimulus is also
critical. The package enacted is quite front-
loaded, and it is expected to boost second and
third quarter growth. The combination of fiscal
stimulus, reduced inventory cutbacks, reduced
drag from housing, and slightly easier financial
conditions should gradually restore growth into
positive territory in the second half of 2009
after a large contraction in the first half of the
year. However, only tepid below-trend growth is
expected, low enough that the unemployment
rate will keep rising.

manager of the LOGIC pool.

5. ORDINANCE(S):
FIRST READING AND PUBLIC HEARING
5a 0-09-1716 Approval of an Ordinance prohibiting the construction of a rail station or
rail stop in the City of Colleyville; providing for lowering the rail bed to
prevent traffic congestion at rail crossings
Mayor Kelly read the caption of Ordinance 0-09-1716.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden stated this item was placed on the
agenda in accordance with Section 5 of the City of Colleyville Charter
under citizen initiative. The requisite number of signatures was submitted
under the petition to the City of Colleyville on April 21, 2009, and in
accordance with the City Charter, the City Secretary certified the
requisite number of signatures.
Mayor Kelly opened the public hearing.
Mr. Chris Whitaker, 7204 Marantha, stated the initiative is about freight,
better traffic in Colleyville and improving the quality of life in Colleyville
and spoke regarding the rail plan as proposed by the RTC, the petition
process, the reason for submission of the petition and the goal of the
ordinance.
Mr. Jim Moore, 1416 Glade Road, stated he has no knowledge of plans
for a rail station in Colleyville and spoke regarding the rights of citizens
and future City Council authority.
Mr. Burdette Warner, 1621 Heathermore, did not wish to speak but
registered support of the proposed ordinance.
There were no others present wishing to speak concerning this item and
Mayor Kelly closed the public hearing.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers reviewed the process for submission of a citizen
petition and the action and authority of City Council related to the
petition.
City Attorney Matthew Boyle stated, Section 6.02 of the Charter says
that once submitted by petition, the draft legislation must be considered
for approval without alteration as to meaning or effect.
City of Colleyville Page 7 Printed on 5/74/2009
City Council City Council Minutes -Draft May 5, 2009
City Attorney Matthew Boyle confirmed the City Council must accept the
petition and legislation as submitted and City Council must approve the
proposed ordinance or if the City Council does not approve the
ordinance, the issue must go to the citizens for a vote at the next
election.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers asked the City Attorney if most legislation
presented to City Council for consideration has been reviewed by the
City Attorney and staff to determine if it meets all legal requirements.
The City Attorney responded, "Yes'.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers asked the City Attorney if the proposed ordinance
was reviewed and the City Attorney said it was not.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers asked the City Attorney if he believes that
provisions of the proposed ordinance are enforceable under federal or
state laws?
City Attorney Matthew Boyle stated, "I believe there are mulitiple
provisions of the proposed ordinance whose enforceability would prove
problematic."
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers spoke regarding a provision in the Interstate
Commerce Commission Termination Act, which is known as ICCTA.,
regarding rail activity.
City Attorney Matthew Boyle stated that the provision puts the general
ability to regulate the operation and construction of rail within the United
States within the sole purvue of an arm of the federal government and
prohibits municipalities from enacting legislation that would affect the
ability of a rail company to operate its rail system.
The City Attorney stated the Dallas Area Rapid Transit, with a partial
interest in the Fort Worth and Western Railroad owns the rail system and
the City does not maintain any ownership of the railroad. He further
stated the City's jurisdiction ends at the DART right-of-way and the City
does not have any jurisdiction over the operation of rail traffic through the
City.
The City Attorney confirmed the draft ordinance would be prohibitive
under the federal pre-emption provision of the United States
Constitution, as well as the Interstate Commerce Commission
Termination Act.
City Attorney Matthew Boyle stated that the precedent would prove the
enforceability of the draft ordinance an impossibility. The two provisions
that stand out as being the most problematic are Section 2 and Section 4
City of Colleyville Page 8 Printed on 5/14/2009
City Council City Council Minutes -Draft May 5, 2009
of the proposed ordinance and the City Council cannot exclude those
sections based on the limitations of the Charter.
Mayor Pro Tem Jon Ayers asked if this item was on the ballot in
November and the ctizens were unanimous in their decision to enact this
piece of legislation, would it have any effect?
The City Attorney stated it would not affect the otherwise challenges and
difficulties with the ordinance's enforceability.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers asked if the City can make DART install
overpasses or lower the rail bed.
The City Attorney stated, absent a mutual agreement of parties, it could
not be accomplished by ordinance.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers stated the City Council is faced with a situation to
vote on a piece of legislation that is unenforceable or to fund an election,
that if approved by a citizen vote, would prove a nullity.
The City Attorney stated the primary action provisions of the ordinance
would be a nullity.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers asked the City Attorney if the City Council has
taken any vote that approved the idea of a rail stop in the City of
Colleyville or has the City Attorney been asked to craft any piece of
legislation that says there is going to be a railstop in Colleyville?
The City Attorney responded, "No".
The City Attorney stated, "On this ordinance that is before you, it is set
for a first reading this evening, so it is set for a second reading two
weeks from tonight. If two weeks from tonight, the City Council took no
action, City Council would face a difficulty, because Council would have
the potential of being out of conformance with City Council's obligations
and duties under the Charter."
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers stated even though the City Council may think this
piece of particular legislation is ineffective; even though we think it is
perhaps illegal; even if we think perhaps it inquires, requires and
imposes duties on the rail system that City Council does not have the
power to enforce, the City Council is still faced with the prospect of
having to put this ordinance to a citizen vote.
The City Attorney stated based on the City Charter requirements and
City of Colleyville Page 9 Printed on 5/14/2009
City Council City Council Minutes -Draft May 5, 2009
limitations for a petition oriented initiative, that is correct, and an election
will cost between $8,500.00 and $12,000.00.
The City Attorney stated based on the bulk of the action provisions, the
ordinance would be null and void based on an assessment and
understanding of federal law and the case law interpreting it.
Mayor Kelly asked what authority would future City Councils have to
change the ordinance.
The City Attorney stated, "Section 6.09 of the City Charter states that no
ordinance or resolution, which may have been passed by the City
Council upon petition or as a result of a popular vote under the
provisions of this article, shall be repealed or amended for a period of
five (5) years thereafter."
The City Attorney stated the City Charter has a general savings provision
that says if particular sections of the ordinance were kicked out by the
Court, that the decision by the Court would be binding and effective
against the City.
There was general discussion regarding the outcome for municipalties if
they try to legislate beyond their sphere of authority, ensuring the
railroad operates in accordance with regulations and the City's
relationship with the rail authorities.
Councilmember Taylor ask the City Attorney if the home rule authority
stops at the easement.
The City Attorney stated the City has no regulatory authority relative to
the operation, construction or maintenance of the rail going through
Colleyville and the City can only obtain quad gates, sound walls and
quiet zones by mutual agreement between the City and the rail
authorities.
Councilmember Wollin stated opposition to a rail station in Colleyville
and spoke regarding the unenforceability of the proposed ordinance.
Councilmember Hall spoke regarding the unenforceability of the
proposed ordinance and regarding the benefit of an election.
Councilmember Hart stated there is not a location in Colleyville to
support a rail station and the cost of a rail station is prohibitive.
Mayor Kelly stated opposition to using General Funds for a rail station
City of Colleyville Page 10 Printed on 5/14/2009
City Council City Council Minutes -Draft May 5, 2009
and spoke regarding the protection of property values, sound mitigation
and quad gates if the rail expands.
Councilmember Taylor commended the Rail Committee for their work
and stated the City did not plan for a rail station, space is an issue and
property values must be protected.
6. RESOLUTION(S):
READING AND PUBLIC HEARING
6a R-09-3092 Approval of a request from the Blue Shoe Project for a Mass Gathering
Event to be held on June 13, 2009 in the Village at Colleyville, Case
0009-006
Mayor Kelly read Resolution R-09-3092 in its entirety.
Community Development Manager Ron Ruthven provided information
regarding the proposed Blue Shoe Blues Festival and the mass
gathering regulations and proposed waivers.
Mayor Kelly opened the public hearing.
Ms. Heather Parker, Development and Communications Director, The
Blue Shoe Project, provided information regarding the festival activities,
promotion of the event and number of attendees.
There were no others present wishing to speak concerning this item and
Mayor Kelly closed the public hearing.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers moved to approve Resolution R-09-3092.
Councilmember Wollin seconded the motion.
The motion carried by the following vote:
Aye: 7 - David Kelly, Carol Wollin, Tony Licata, Stan Hall, Jon
Ayers, Tom Hart, Mike Taylor
6b R-09-3093 Approval of a Resolution rescinding Resolution R-09-3065 supporting
local option taxes and fees to fund transportation including Rail North
Texas
Mayor Kelly read Resolution R-09-3093 in its entirety.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden stated this item was placed on the
City of Colleyville Page 11 Prinfed on 5/14/2009
City Council City Council Minutes -Draft May 5, 2009
agenda in accordance with Section 5 of the City of Colleyville Charter
under citizen initiative. The requisite number of signatures was submitted
under the petition to the City of Colleyville on April 21, 2009, and in
accordance with the City Charter, the City Secretary certified the
requisite number of signatures.
Mayor Kelly opened the public hearing.
Mr. Chris Whitaker, 7204 Marantha, expressed appreciation to Mayor
Pro Tem Ayers for the summary of points, stated the resolution is the
more important of the ordinance and resolution and spoke regarding
traffic concerns, sound mitigation, freight traffic, electric lines versus
diesel lines and communications with DEIS.
Mr. Burdette Warner, 1621 Heathermore, did not wish to speak but
registered support of the proposed resolution.
There were no others present wishing to speak concerning this item and
Mayor Kelly closed the public hearing.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers asked the City Attorney if the same questions
were asked about Resolution R-09-3093 that were asked about
Ordinance 0-09-1716, would the answers be the same.
City Attorney Matthew Boyle stated, "Yes, the material issues remain the
same."
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers stated the resolution does not attempt to force
DART or any other entity to do anything. It is a resolution urging the
entities to act a certain way.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers stated there is another issue with this resolution
because it deals with rescinding another resolution that was passed
February 3, 2009. We are faced with the concept that we as a Council,
because this is a citizen petition, are left with very little or no perogative
to change the resolution. In other words, if the City Council votes to
accept it tonight, we have to accept it exactly as it is.
City Attorney Matthew Boyle stated that is correct as a general rule. The
only very narrow and limited window as an alternative would be to the
extent you could better discern the opinion of the person filing the
petition per Section 6.02 of the City Charter.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers stated, if City Council gets into the subjective
interpretation for the person filing the petition, then the City Council is
faced with the issue as to whether or not the people that actually
adhered their signatures to the petition, accepted it that way or not.
Short of basically making changes to this resolution and resubmitting it to
--
City of Colleyville Page 12 Printed on 5/14/2009
City Council City Council Minutes -Draft May 5, 2009
the approximately 600 to 700 citizens for a review, we do not know
whether they would sign it or not.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers stated the resolution that seeks to be rescinded is
Resolution R-09-3065 and stated this resolution provides that Tarrant
County could not levy taxes unless it went to the citizens for a vote, so
before any of these items could be levied, it would have to voted on by
the citizens of Tarrant County.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers further stated, Resolution R-09-3065 is not the
same number in the piece of legislation that is before the City Council
tonight. The resolution that is being considered tonight is Resolution
30R0695. If the City Council were to approve this piece of legislation as
it is written tonight, the City Council would be rescinding a Resoluiton
that does not exist. There is no such resolution. If it were to be
submitted to the voters in November as is, we would be funding an
election at a cost of $8,500.00 to $12,000.00 and asking residents to
vote to rescind a resolution that does not exist.
There was general discussion regarding the content and purpose of
Resolution R-09-3065.
Mayor Pro Tem Ayers moved to table Resolution R-09-3092, and
requested the petitioner to talk with the City Attorney regarding other
options.
Councilmember Hall seconded the motion.
The motion carried by the following vote:
Aye: 7 - David Kelly, Carol Wollin, Tony Licata, Stan Hall, Jon
Ayers, Tom Hart, Mike Taylor

I just wanted to make sure this was OK. 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

Revised initiative
I have completed what we felt necessary to address the resolution and the ordinance. 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 prior 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?

RAIL BED TO PREVENT TRAFFIC CONGESTION AT RAIL CROSSINGS;
PROVIDING FOR ENFORCEMENT OF THIS ORDINANCE; PROVIDING FOR THE
GOVERNING LAW; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING FOR AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of Colleyville supports regional efforts to address the mobility and air
quality needs of the citizens of North Texas; and
WHEREAS, the Colleyville Commuter Rail Citizen Committee (CCRCC) investigated the
possibility of commuter rail and freight rail through the City of Colleyville and
establishment of a commuter rail station in the City of Colleyville; and
WHEREAS, the Draft Environmental Impact Study (DEIS) of the Southwest to Northeast
Commuter Rail (SWNECR) project focused entirely on commuter rail and did not
include examination of negative impacts of freight traffic in the City of Colleyville
while specifically providing freight traffic would use the rail line; and
WHEREAS, the Cottonbelt Railroad affected within the City of Colleyville is an antiquated
railroad which has very little rail freight traffic consisting oflow-speed, empty freight
cars and has the occasional tourist Tarantula Train; and
WHEREAS, many citizens of the City of Colleyville purchased their homes with the
understanding this was the only type of rail traffic traveling the railroad; and
WHEREAS, the railroad affected within the City of Colleyville will require complete
reconstruction of the railroad to carry any type of train that travels over twenty-five
miles-per-hour or is fully loaded; and
WHEREAS, the Cottonbelt Railroad does have a significant impact on the community since it
limits roadway interconnectivity between residential neighborhoods as there are
three locations in the City of Colleyville where railroad crosses existing roads: one
at Bransford Road a second at Pleasant Run Road and the third at John McCain
Road and the DEIS noted traffic congestion would increase on the roadways in the
City of Colleyville with the reconstruction of the railroad; and
WHEREAS, the CCRCC noted areas of focus of impact should a station be completed in the City
of Colleyville included public safety, noise, pollution, property values, traffic
congestion, crime, station location and design, and total cost and noted areas of focus
of impact should commuter rail operation commence as outlined in the DEIS in the
City of Colleyville included public safety, noise, pollution, property values, and
traffic congestion; and
WHEREAS, the City of Colleyville deems it necessary for the purpose of promoting the health
safety morals or general welfare of the City to enact a rail ordinance; and
WHEREAS, the City of Colleyville deems it necessary to enact said ordinance to eliminate or
reduce an essentially local safety or security hazard, and it is not incompatible with a
law, regulation, or order of the United States Government, and it does not
unreasonably burden interstate commerce; and
WHEREAS, the City of Colleyville deems it necessary for the purpose of mitigating the adverse
effects of rail traffic on safety, motor vehicle traffic flow, community quality of life,
or economic development; and
WHEREAS, the City of Colleyville is established as under its Texas home rule charter;
WHEREAS, the people of the City of Colleyville reserve the power of direct legislation by
initiative and have properly petitioned under the City of Colleyville Charter 6.02.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
COLLEYVILLE, TEXAS:

Approval to amend Ordinance 0-08-1701 regarding the existing gas franchise between the
City and Atmos Energy, Section 19 Payments to the City
Explanation
First Reading and Public Hearing
On December 2, 2008, City Council approved Ordinance 0-08-1701 granting a 15-year
franchise to Atmos Energy Corporation, and its successors and assigns to furnish and
supply gas to the general public in the City of Colleyville. In negotiating the franchise,
Atmos suggested the payment terms be changed from the City receiving an annual
payment to receiving quarterly payments. This change was incorporated into the franchise
and approved in Ordinance 0-08-1701. However, due to accounting and audit policies, the
City will not be able to retain and/or defer the funds within the fiscal year when paid
quarterly. Staff discussed the accounting challenges with Atmos Energy and Atmos has
agreed to amend the ordinance, with City Council approval, to return to annual payments.
Approval of this ordinance amends only Section 19, Payments.
Financial Impact

Title
Approval of amendments to Chapter 7 -Sign Regulations of the Land Development Code
regarding electronic signs, Case G-09-006
Explanation
First Reading and Public Hearing
The item was presented to the City Council as a Pre Council item on May 5, 2009. Based
on discussion of the proposed amendments, staff has drafted the final proposed changes to
the electronic sign regulations for City Council consideration.
In October 2007, City Council directed the Sign Board of Appeals (SBA) to examine the
electronic sign regulations located within Chapter 7, Sign Regulations of the Land
Development Code. At the SBA meeting held in December 2007, the Board made the
following recommendations with regard to the existing electronic sign regulations:
1. Increase the message change frequency to once every 24 hours from once every
five minutes.
2. Create a time and temperature sign change interval to once every 3 seconds. There
is currently no interval requirement.
In December 2008, City Council approved, by resolution, an appeal to an SBA decision
regarding the operation of an electronic sign. The approved action allowed the owner to
change sign messages at a minimum of once every 10 seconds. The Land Development
Code currently requires a five minute minimum.
City of Colleyville Page 1 Printed on 5/13/2009
Agenda Briefing Continued (0-09-1719)
Based on comments received at the May 5, 2009 Pre Council meeting, staff proposes the
following changes to the current electronic sign regulations:
Section 7-130 General Conditions Applicable to All Signs would be revised to read as
follows:
"K. Electronic Message Signs Along State Highways: Electronic signs placed along
state highways shall be allowed to change messages at a minimum of once every ten
(10) seconds. The display of time and/or temperature may change at an interval of
every three (3) seconds. Only one electronic sign shall be allowed per property.
These provisions shall only be considered for commercial and institutional signs that
are located on properties adjacent to Precinct Line Road, State Highway 26, or State
Highway 121."
Section 7-215 Prohibited Signs would also be amended to reflect the above changes to the
electronic sign policy, if approved by City Council. Staff recommends that subsection (H)
read as follows:
"H. Moving and Flashin_ Sq igns - No person shall erect or allow to be displayed upon
premises owned or controlled, any illuminated, animated, moving or flashing sign.
Exception: Except where provided by Section 7-130 K of this chapter, only a sign,
which has illumination, that is turned on and off, changes in light intensity, color or
copy, at a rate equivalent to, or no more often than once every five (5) minutes, is
permitted. It is further provided that a sign, which uses illumination to provide time of
day and/or temperature only, shall not constitute a flashing sign."
In addition to the draft ordinance, the proposed amendments to the electronic sign
regulations are also attached with "mark-ups".
Financial Impact
It has been determined that there is no financial impact.

statement of the technical competency of those registered, and no manner of license is
proffered.

Approval of the City of Colleyville's continued participation with the Steering Committee of
Cities Served by Oncor, and authorizing the payment of $0.10 per capita to the Steering
Committee to fund regulatory and related activities relative to Oncor Electric Delivery
Explanation
Reading and Public Hearing
The City of Colleyville is one of 150 member cities of the Steering Committee of Cities
Served by Oncor. The Steering Committee has been in existence since the late 1980's and
took on a formal structure in the early 1990's when cities served by TXU (since renamed as
Oncor Electric Delivery Company) gave up their statutory right to rate case expense
reimbursement in exchange for higher franchise fee payments. Empowered by city
resolutions and funded by per capita assessments, the Steering Committee has been the
primary public interest advocate before the Public Utility Commission, courts, and the
Legislature on electric utility regulation matters for nearly two decades.
In 2004, the Steering Committee coordinated the activities of 20 member cities that initiated
an investigation of Oncor's wire rates. As a result of the Steering Committee's activities, the
Company agreed to make settlement payments to the cities beginning in 2005. Settlement
payments from Oncor will continue to be made annually through the entry of final order in
the Company's pending rate case (expected on or before July 31, 2009).
The Steering Committee is actively involved in rate cases, appeals, rulemakings, and
legislative efforts impacting the rates charged by Oncor Electric Delivery within the City.
Steering Committee representation is also strong at ERCOT.

I just wanted to make sure this was OK. 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

I have completed what we felt necessary to address the resolution and the ordinance. 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 prior 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?

the retaining wall be set from John McCain? Mr. Draper replied it
actually varies, he stated the wall is 3 ft to 6 ft tall and it will be redone,
however, there is not a lot of room to move it back because of the
mature trees. He stated there is not enough room between the wall and
City of Colleyville Page 4 Printed on 5112/2009
Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes -Final
April 13, 2009
the trees to build a sidewalk. He stated the new wall will be layered, dry
stacked stone. He stated the corner will have tiers for landscaping.
Bailey Draper stated not knowing if any sidewalks exist on John McCain
on this end.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned City Engineer, Jeremy Hutt regarding
if there has been a right of way dedication done for the future expansion
on John McCain? Jeremy Hutt replied the right of way was dedicated at
the time of the plat.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned Jeremy Hutt regarding if John
McCain is expanded, in the future, will those trees be subject to being
torn down? Jeremy Hutt replied correct. He stated the Engineering
Department suggested to Mr. Draper with regards to the retaining wall,
that they fill out a right of way encroachment form to be able to use the
right of way for the retaining wall. Jeremy Hutt stated those trees could
possibly come down as a result of the widening of John McCain.
Commissioner Phelps questioned Jeremy Hutt if the sidewalk would be
built in the easement? Jeremy Hutt replied the sidewalk would be
constructed within the 75 foot right of way.
Commissioner Byerly questioned Jeremy Hutt regarding where would the
new sidewalk be placed on this street because of the elevations?
Jeremy Hutt stated there are a few hurdles to be met with the elevations
and so forth, but there are options. He stated being complicated but not
impossible.
Commissioner Phelps stated there are three options for this request
escrow the money, build the sidewalk or waive the sidewalk requirement
all together. Ron Ruthven replied the escrow option is there in lieu of
construction of the sidewalk.
Commissioner Byerly questioned staff regarding the circumstances with
this property exceed what is typically required to be escrowed? Ron
Ruthven replied the builder would have to incur that extra expense to
build the sidewalk given the terrain. He stated it could cost more than
the determined amount. Commissioner Byerly questioned staff
regarding if the amount is based on linear square feet? Ron Ruthven
replied yes, it is based on the Engineering Department's formula for
calculating the fee. Jeremy Hutt replied the calculation is strictly for the
cost of concrete to construct the sidewalk. He stated any other
circumstances are not taken into consideration.
Commissioner Phelps questioned staff regarding if they are to build
today, they will have to pay the full cost in addition to all of the other
City of Cofieyvil/e Page 5 Printed on 5/12/2009
Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes -Final April 13, 2009
requirements? Jeremy Hutt stated they would have to build the sidewalk
to current city standards. Commissioner Phelps questioned Jeremy who
would incur the additional costs of installing this sidewalk if the money is
placed into escrow? Jeremy Hutt replied the city would incur the costs.
Commissioner Redfearn questioned staff regarding where is the nearest
existing trail or sidewalk to connect to this sidewalk? Justin Bass replied
there is an existing trail before Stillwater.
Commissioner Rotthaus questioned Mr. Draper regarding if he knew
sidewalks would be required? Mr. Draper stated they are probably
stamped on the plans, however, he stated they anticipated having to
come before and ask for a waiver because of the circumstances that
exist on this property.
Commissioner Phelps stated the wall is still within the right of way area.
Mr. Draper stated they are going to get the encroachment agreement so
that they can save these trees.
Commissioner Byerly questioned Mr. Draper regarding if he can build the
sidewalk cheaper than the escrow amount? Mr. Draper replied yes, he
can build for $3 a foot and the escrow amount is for $4.25 a foot. He
stated they are going to be spending a lot of money to re-do the wall.
Commissioner Phelps questioned Mr. Draper regarding what additional
expenses would be incurred if the sidewalk is required at the base of the
wall? Mr. Draper replied the expense of the sidewalk at the base of the
wall would cause the loss of the trees.
Commissioner Phelps questioned Mr. Draper regarding if there is an
option to put the sidewalk behind the trees? Mr. Draper stated that
would put the sidewalk 20 feet off the street into the property owner's
front yard, at the proposed driveway, at the front door.
Commissioner Byerly questioned Jeremy Hutt regarding if the trees are
affected with the sidewalk. Jeremy Hutt replied if the sidewalk is
required, the retaining wall will have to be move, therefore the trees
would be affected to get the separation from pavement, sidewalk and
wall.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned Jeremy Hutt regarding how many
feet does the sidewalk have to be from the street? Jeremy Hutt replied
four foot on a road similar to John McCain. However, he stated they are
looked at on a case by case basis. He stated there is a curve in this
road, therefore, they want the sidewalk to be moved further back which
will eliminate the trees.

April 13, 2009
Commissioner Knox moved to approve case GC09-005. Commissioner
Rotthaus seconded.
Commissioner Dudziak stated the purpose of this ordinance is to set
aside the escrowed monies so that when this road is widened, the cost
of the sidewalk is paid for. He stated it is the Commissions responsibility
to require the escrow.
Commissioner Redfearn concurred and stated its dangerous until John
McCain is improved. He stated to allow for the waiver, the money would
not be there for another part of the neighborhood district that could
benefit this property.
Discussion occurred between staff and Commissioner Byerly regarding
the options: grant the waiver, escrow in lieu of construction or build the
sidewalk.
Commissioner Phelps stated being in favor of them to escrow in lieu of
construction.
Commissioner Byerly stated usually being in favor of the Sidewalk
Committee however, this property has bad elevation. He stated the
sidewalk would be required on the side of the curve which is a
dangerous place to put a sidewalk. He stated this one seems to need an
exception.
Commissioner Knox stated the city has already given an exception with
the placement of the retaining wall.

Phelps seconded.
Commissioner Phelps stating there may be a more appropriate
place for a sidewalk in this area on the map. Commissioner Byerly
concurred.
Commissioner Rotthaus stated there is a reason that they have a
right to come before the Commission and ask for a waiver. He
stated there are certain conditions for this property. He stated the
Commission needs to look at each request on a case by case basis.
Commissioner Dudziak stated he appreciated the comments. He
stated when the city redesigns this street, staff will evaluate the
safe placement of the sidewalk. He stated the city needs to be
allowed the option to act on this, in the future, if the street is
widened. He stated we can require the construction or the escrow
of the sidewalk.
Commissioner Byerly concurred and stated the applicant can have
the option to either build the sidewalk or escrow in lieu of
construction.
Ron Ruthven stated if the money is escrowed for the sidewalk, the
money can be spent anywhere in the neighborhood sidewalk
district. Commissioners concurred.
