City Secretary Carolyn Jones, City Engineer Paul Beaver,
City Attorney Steve Deiter, Public Works Director Bill
Flowers, Project Coordinator Tommy McDanel , Public Works
Superintendent Jackie Jones and Terry Milligan, Engineer
Consultant on Impact Fees and Capital Improvements Plan.
Mayor Akin called the meeting to order.
WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS: Mr. Paul Beaver, City Engineer,
introduced Mr. Terry Milligan who was involved with the
impact fee study and the ten ( 10) year capital improvements
plan. City Manager Steve Norwood requested Mr. Beaver to
move to the water pressure problem in Newport Harbor since
there were citizens present for that discussion. Mr. Beaver
stated that there were several options which are:
EXISTING SYSTEM UPGRADE
Option 1 : Booster Pump Station ( FM 1378 ) $ 43,375.
Option 2 : Ground Storage Reservoir and Pump
Station (Newport Harbor) $176,760 .
Option 3 : Nortex Pump Station - Back Pressure
Sustaining Valve and Pump Controls $ 37 , 812 .
Option 4 : 8" Loop line ( 11 , 500 l .f . ) $207 , 625.
WYLIE NORTHEAST WSC AGREEMENT
Option 1 : 8" Tie-in ( 1 , 900 l .f . ) $ 43 , 080.
Option 2: 12" Tie-in ( 1 ,900 l .f . ) $ 71 , 760 .
Mr . Beaver said that the Wylie Northeast WSC new tower is
not tied-in to the North Texas Municipal Water District' s
system as yet. There was at one time an acre of land given
to the City to use for a water tower, but the land was not
z
used in the time frame designated . Mr. Beaver stated in a
short term solution, option 3 of the existing system upgrade
and option 1 of Wylie Northeast WSC Agreement. Any type of
pumping facility the city uses would mean that a pump would
be running at all times. A pump station alone will not
solve the fire protection problem. City needs to have an
elevated storage tank or ground storage tank in the area to
improve fire protection.
The question of how other cities get away with not having
elevated water storage tanks and state standards states you
must have them. Mr. Milligan stated that Dallas and Garland
are not having to pay penalties on this , but if state ever
decided to start enforcing this provision of elevated tanks ,
these cities would probably be fined .

the Wylie Water System which are as follows:
