CONSIDER PRESENTATION BY MRS. FRANKS CONCERNING THE
AMBULANCE SERVICE: Mrs. Franks stated that she wished to
discuss the fact the she felt the desperate need for Wylie
to get out of the ambulance service as quickly as possible.
She went on to say that she was in a situation in July of
1987 in which she had to use the Wylie Ambulance. Mrs.
Franks stated that her husband had tried to explain to the
ambulance driver several times that her doctor was waiting
for her at the hospital and that he knew what the problem
was and didn' t want her taken to the Wylie Hospital . She
said that the ambulance driver kept telling her that he had
to take her to the Wylie Hospital until she was stabilized.
Mrs. Franks also said that the ambulance driver refused to
take her to her choice of hospitals and instead took her to
the Wylie Hospital . Mrs. Franks also stated that once she
got to the hopital , the doctor wanted to give her valium, in
which she is highly allergic and would have killed her had
he administered it, and that instead of the valium, he took
medication from her own box and gave it to her, not knowing
if she knew for sure when the last time was she had taken
it. Mrs . Franks kept trying to explain that she was not
attacking the hospital , but that the whole 45 minutes she
was at the Wylie Hospital , nothing was done, until the
doctor finally got in touch with her own doctor , who told
them to give her a shot of medication and transport her
immediately to the hospital where he was. Mrs . Franks could
not understand why she had to be taken to the nearest
hospital instead of the hospital of her choice, and had been
told different facts concerning whether or not the Wylie
ambulance is staffed with paramedics. Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan
explained that the Wylie ambulance is staffed with Emergency
Medical Technicians . City Manager, John Pitstick, said that
Wylie has a basic life support system at this time, rather
than a full advance life support system. The difference in
the two is that Wylie is only equipped to transport a person
to the nearest hospital until they are stabilized, at which
time they can be transported to the hospital of their
choice, where as with a full advance life support system,
the paramedics can administer medications and are in
constant communication with the hospital . Mr . Pitstick went
on to explain that Wylie is in the process of negotiating a
contract with another ambulance company to provide service
for Wylie. Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan stated that taking the
ambulance was a mistake and that the council realizes the
importance of acting on a contract quickly. Mr . Pitstick
told Mrs. Franks that the ambulance is a very high priority
that did require a contractural agreement to establish
standards.
CONSIDER RECOMMENDATION FROM PLANNING AND ZONING REGARDING
POSSIBLE AMENDMENT TO ORDINANCE 84-10A - BUILDING CODE:
Code Enforcement Officer, Roy Faires, stated that as a
request from the council , a survey was done of several
cities in the area, and the results of the survey was taken
to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Mr . Faires explained
that according to the survey, there is a mixed bag, with one
other city' s ordinance exactly like Wylie' s , three cities
requiring 75% masonry for the first floor and an additional
requirement of no less than 50% of any one elevation or one
side of the building , another city that does not have that
50% of any elevation included, just 75% of the first floor,
and three cities that have no masonry requirements in their
ordinances at all . City Manager, John Pitstick, stated that
according to the survey, the most restrictive cities would
be Wylie and Rowlett . Councilman DiTota stated that he
wanted to clarify with Mr. Faires that in Dallas, Plano, and
Richardson, there was a requirement of 75% masonry on the
first floor, but no less than 50% of any side of the first
floor. Mr . Faires said that was correct , that it is still
at least 50% of any side you look at, and additionally must
be at least 75% of the building . Mr. Pitstick added that
these three cities basically require that all sides be
partially masonry. He also stated that Wylie and Rowlett
are the only cities that require masonry above the first
floor . Mr . Blakey asked Mr . Faires if the way Wylie' s
ordinance reads now, it is 75% on all floors, but we could
have all masonry on any one elevation. Councilman Crane
said that the reason some cities have a requirement of at
least 50% masonry on all sides is to prevent the whole back
side of a house from being siding . Mr . Faires stated for
the record that the Planning and Zoning Commission voted
unanimously that the ordinance remain as is, with no change.
Councilman Crane said that one of the concerns of the
Planning and Zoning Commission was that the siding could be
a fire hazard to the zero lot line homes, but he felt that
as our ordinance reads now, could also be a fire hazard.
City Manager, John Pitstick , explained that this ordinance
did not require a vote at this time, but staff wanted to let
council look at it and see just what the mixed bag was, and
if there was further direction the ordinance could be on the
agenda for a vote at a later date. Mr . Faires told council
that an ordinance was not prepared , as staff didn' t know
what council wanted in regards to requirments , but if it be
the desire of the council , an ordinance would be prepared
with direction from the council .
CONSIDER APPROVAL TO GRANT AUTHORIZATION TO CITY STAFF TO
SEEK BIDS FOR CUSTODIAN SERVICES AT THE NEW MUNICIPAL
COMPLEX, LIBRARY, COMMUNITY CENTER, AND PUBLIC WORKS: City
Manager, John Pitstick, explained that the City currently
has one janitor to handle all custodial services and the
staff feels it would be much more equitable to go to
contractural services since the offices will be moving to
the new City Hall . Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan asked Mr . Pitstick
if staff would be coming back to council with bids . Mr .
Pitstick said that was correct. Councilman Crane stated
that because the space utilization had been cut back at the
new complex, he would like to see a breakdown of the costs
for an employee or staff of employees to do the janitorial
work, rather than contracting it out . Mr . Pitstick
explained that we could still do that, but he would like to
go out for bids to get an idea of the cost of contracting it
out, but if the bids were too high, council could always
reject the bids. A motion was made by Councilman Blakey to
authorize city staff to seek bids for custodial services .
The motion was seconded by Councilman DiTota. The vote was
as follows : Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan - in favor , Councilman
Akin - in favor, Councilman Westerhof - in favor , Councilman
DiTota - in favor , Councilman Crane - in favor , Councilman
Blakey - in favor. This motion carried with all in favor.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF CONSTRUCTION DRAW #13 FOR SPEED FAB-
CRETE IN THE AMOUNT OF $150 ,000 .00 : City Manager , John
Pitstick explained to the council that Speed Fab-Crete had
requested a final draw, but that staff is requesting to
retain $31 ,000 , as the architect came in and had some
questions about some of the handicap requirements in public
buildings, and staff has sent the plans to the state. Mr .
Pitstick went on to say that Speed Fab-Crete may have to
make some minor changes before the building can be accepted
by the state as a public building. Councilman DiTota was
concerned as to whether $31 ,000 would cover the expenses, in
the event that the contrator decided not to do the work and
the City had to do it . Mr . Pitstick explained that as far
as staff can determine, there are only two areas of concern,
those being drinking fountains and restrooms. This would
entail relocating the doors in the restrooms and the push
buttons on the drinking fountains . Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan
asked why these concerns are just now coming before council .
Mr . Faires , Code Enforcement Officer, explained that the
architect failed to inform staff of these items. A motion
was made by Councilman Akin to approve Construction Draw #13
for Speed Fab-Crete in the amount of $150 ,000 .00 . The
motion was seconded by Councilman Blakey. The vote was as
follows : Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan - in favor , Councilman Akin
- in favor , Councilman Westerhof - in favor , Councilman
DiTota - in favor, Councilman Crane - in favor, Councilman
Blakey - in favor . This motion carried with all in favor .
CONDUCT PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE PURPOSE OF IMLPLEMENTING 9-1-
1 SERVICE WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS OF WYLIE: Alan Nosar, 505
Rustic Place came before the council asking what
requirements would be placed on citizens to have 9-1-1 .
John Pitstick, City Manager, explained that there would be
an additional charge on phone bills. He also explained that
j
when a citizen dials 9-1-1 , their address will show up on a
screen at the Police Department, and all citizens will have
9-1-1 . Mr . Pitstick also explained that the State
Legislature just passed a bill that the whole state must be
on 9-1-1 by 1995 , and Wylie chose to do it now. Mr . Nosar
asked that if in case of a state of emergency, if the 9-1-1
would transfer to another department or city who could
respond. Mr . Cowman from GTE explained that the City could
set up an agreement with a city such as Rowlett to transfer
calls to that City if Wylie were to have a disaster of some
kind.
CONDUCT PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE REZONING REQUEST OF THIRSK
CORPORATION ON 158 ACRES OUT OF THE ALLEN ATTERBURY SURVEY,
ABSTRACT NO. 23 - REQUESTED ZONING IS FOR SF-1 , SF-2 , SF-3 ,
RETAIL AND BUSINESS -1 : Roy Faires, Code Enforcement
Officer, stated that this is the property known as the
Belgium Tract . Councilman DiTota questioned Mr . Faires
about the breakdown of acreage of the zoning . Mr . Faires
stated that it is roughly 25% of the old SF-1 . Mr. DiTota
asked if he was right that the actual coverage of present
SF-1 and SF-2 is being increased. Mr . Faires said that was
correct and that it was also lowering the density in that
tract.
Mr. William Cothram, with the Firm Master Plan was present
and stated that working with staff and having several
meetings, they used basically two concepts to come up with
this plan. One was the City of Wylie Comprehensive Plan
Report and the other was to look at the adjacent zonings on
all four sides of the property. They also took the
thoroughfare plan into consideration.
Councilman Crane questioned the fact that the SF-3 along the
southern border is right next to the SF-1 which could make
zoning difficult for the next property that comes in. Mr .
Faires explained that the property next to it belongs to Don
Kreymer , and is zoned SF3 , Multi-Family and B-2 . Councilman
Crane said that he was under the impression that the council
had expressed some concern regarding the ratio of SF-3 in
the City, and was concerned about the next property, and
that Planning and Zoning may even have a rough time
following the Master Plan with throwing in more SF-3 next to
the SF-1 that would border about 60% of the property.
Councilman Crane also stated that if it were SF-2 , the
property next to it would be more likely to go SF-1 or SF-2 ,
rather than drop to SF-3 . Councilman Crane also felt like
the City has a large concentration of SF-3 on that side of
town. Mr . Faires explained that some type of buffer was
needed next to the business zoning .
Councilman DiTota asked Mr . Cothram if the zoning were
changed around to have more SF-2 , if the SF-2 would not be
marketable. Mr . Cothram said that he is not in the
marketing business , but that the firm had spent a lot of
time to achieve the proper mix . He went on to say that in
the long run they will do what the council wants , as they
want to be a part of this community, and want to build a
development . Mr . Cothram explained that they tried to put
the larger lots along the creek and tried to put the smaller
lots up against where the smaller lots already exist and
where the business is.
Councilman Crane said he just wanted the opportunity to look
at a higher use. Councilman DiTota agreed that a higher
zoning would help even out that side of town.
Mr . Cothram made a proposal to change the zoning requested
to SF1 - 37 acres, SF2 - 67 acres and SF3 - 42 acres.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A ZONING ORDINANCE FOR 158 ACRES OUT OF
THE ALLEN ATTERBURY SURVEY, ABSTRACT 23 FOR THIRSK
CORPORATION: Councilman Crane made a motion to approve the
rezoning request of Thirsk Corporation on 158 acres out of
the Allen Atterbury Survey, Abstract No. 23 with the changes
made to reflect SF 1 - 37 acres, SF 2 - 67 acres and SF 3 -
42 acres . Councilman DiTota seconded the motion. The vote
was as follows : Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan - in favor,
Councilman Akin - in favor , Councilman Westerhof - in favor ,
Councilman DiTota - in favor, Councilman Crane - in favor ,
Councilman Blakey - in favor . This motion carried with all
in favor .
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY
MANAGER TO APPLY AND PARTICIPATE AS THE CITY ' S DESIGNATED
REPRESENTATIVE IN THE GOVERNOR' S COMMUNITY ACHIEVEMENT
AWARDS PROGRAM SPONSORED BY KEEP TEXAS BEAUTIFUL, INC. :
City Manager , John Pitstick, explained that he had gotten a
general concensus from the council that there was interest
in clean up programs and this is a program established by
the governor which is sponsored by the Keep Texas Beautiful
Program. Mr . Pitstick noted that there is an extensive form
that would have to be filled out in order to get started
with the program, but that it would at least be a way to get
involved. Mr. Pitstick also stated that there are alot of
cities already ahead of Wylie, and that Wylie might not get
any money this year , but there was a need to go ahead and
apply. Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan asked if this was a different
program than the state program with the matching funds . Mr .
Pitstick said that it is a different program and that Don
White, Public Works Superintendent , had checked with the
state to see where the city stands with that program. Mr .
White said he spoke with someone from the state, who told
him that they were still reviewing the plans.
Councilman DiTota felt that the worst thing that could
happen by applying for this program, would be that Wylie
would be cleaned up.
A motion was made by Councilman DiTota to approve a
resolution authorizing the city manger to apply and
participate as the city' s designated representative in the
Governor ' s Community Achievement Awards Program sponsored by
Keep Texas Beautiful , Inc. The motion was seconded by
Councilman Akin. The vote was as follows : Mayor Pro-Tem
Donovan - in favor, Councilman Akin - in favor, Councilman
Westerhof - in favor , Councilman DiTota - in favor ,
Councilman Crane - in favor, Councilman Blakey - in favor .
This motion carried with all in favor .
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE TO PROVIDE TIMES FOR
SCHOOL ZONES WITHIN THE CITY OF WYLIE: Mayor Pro-Tem
Donovan explained that again, there were incorrect times in
the ordinance. Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan made a motion to table
this item. The motion was seconded by Councilman Akin. The
vote was as follows: Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan - in favor ,
Councilman Akin - in favor, Councilman Westerhof - in favor ,
Councilman DiTota - in favor, Councilman Crane - in favor ,
Councilman Blakey - in favor. This motion carried with all
in favor .
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE UPGRADING THE PENALTY IN
CITY ORDINANCES IN ACCORDANCE WITH STATE LAW: Councilman
Akin made a motion to approve an ordinance upgrading the
penalty in city ordinances in accordance with state law.
The motion was seconded by Councilman DiTota. The vote was
as follows : Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan - in favor , Councilman
Akin - in favor, Councilman Westerhof - in favor, Councilman
5
DiTota - in favor, Councilman Crane - in favor, Councilman
Blakey - in favor . This motion carried with all in favor.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 78-
17 SECTION 20C TO PROVIDE TRUCK ROUTES WITHIN THE CITY
LIMITS OF WYLIE: Councilman Akin expressed his concern as
to why the violation of the tandem axle was added to the
ordinance, as well as the 2 ton limit , as the council has
always been concerned with the weight of a truck damaging
the streets . Councilman Crane agreed with Councilman Akin,
stating that with a tandem axle, the weight per tire, is
reduced about 30% .
Councilman Crane also felt that FM 1378 was completely
ignored as a truck route, meaning that trucks could not
drive on 1378 at all . Councilman DiTota felt that Sanden
Boulevard should also be added as a truck route.
Mr . Pitstick, City Manager, stated that staff should get
back to the council with a map in order to establish all
truck routes. Councilman Akin also suggested that the
Police Chief be consulted in regard to the enforcement of
the ordinance.
Councilman DiTota made a motion to table this item. The
motion was seconded by Councilman Akin. The vote was as
follows : Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan - in favor, Councilman Akin
- in favor , Councilman Westerhof - in favor , Councilman
DiTota - in favor, Councilman Crane - in favor , Councilman
Blakey - in favor . This motion carried with all in favor .
CONSIDER APPROVAL AND ACCEPTANCE OF OFFSITE DRAINAGE
EASEMENT FOR QUAIL HOLLOW PHASE 2 : Ron Homeyer, Assistant
City Engineer, explained that all parties had agreed to the
conditions of the easement but staff just didn' t have the
paperwork. Mr . John Pitstick, City Manager, said he would
like to recommend that this item not be tabled for another
meeting , as they need to build the perimeter streets around
the new elementary, but that it be approved with the
stipulation that the city have the easement in hand before
they are allowed to proceed with construction.
Councilman Crane made the motion to approve and accept the
offsite drainage easement for Quail Hollow, Phase 2 , with
the stipulation that the easement be in hand before
proceeding with construction. Councilman DiTota seconded
the motion. The vote was as follows : Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan
- in favor , Councilman Akin - in favor , Councilman Westerhof
- in favor, Councilman DiTota - in favor , Councilman Crane -
in favor , Councilman Blakey - in favor. This motion carried
with all in favor.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF STREET DEDICATION FOR QUAIL HOLLOW
PHASE 2 : Councilman Crane questioned how council could
approve the street dedication. Mr . Ron Homeyer , Assistant
City Engineer, explained that this should be approval of
street construction, rather than dedication. A motion was
made by Councilman Akin to approve street construction for
Quail Hollow, Phase 2 . The motion was seconded by
Councilman Blakey. The vote was as follows: Mayor Pro-Tem
Donovan - in favor, Councilman Westerhof - in favor ,
Councilman Westerhof - in favor , Councilman DiTota - in
favor, Councilman Crane - in favor, Councilman Blakey - in
favor . This motion carried with all in favor .
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION: Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan welcomed
anyone who cared to address the council to come forward,
state their name and address , and limit their speech to two
minutes.
Mr. Orton Messenger, 504 Rustic Place, approached the
council , asking if city crews, original contractor, or who
it was that fixed the low spot in the street at the entrance
to Rustic Place. Mr . Don White, Public Works
Superintendent, said that a subcontractor for the City did
the repairs. Mr. Messenger was concerned as to why the
developer of the subdivision was not required to fix the
street , rather than the city doing it. Mr . White explained
that at the time the subdivision was built, there was no
developmental inspector employed by the city, therefore, the
subdivision was approved with a defect it that part of the
street. Councilman Crane asked how much money was spent
fixing that part of the street, and if there wasn' t a
warranty. Mr . James Johnson, Director of Finance, explained
that $3 ,000 .00 was spent, and that there had been a
maintenance contract on the subdivision at one time, but
that it had already run out . Mr . White also noted that he
felt that the street needed to be fixed now, rather than in
future years, when the standing water had already ruined the
concrete, costing much more in repairs . Councilman Crane
stated that he would like to see the council put together a
priority list on which streets should be maintained first .
City Manager , John Pitstick, explained that the staff would
like to do a total street and drainage inventory in the
winter in order to see where major problem areas exist.
Mr . Messenger also told the council that he had read an
article in the Dallas Times Herald concerning the tax
rollback election, in which City Manager, Mr. Pitstick, was
quoted saying , "We are trying to get a questionaire out to
the residents, asking where they would want a cut if the
rollback is approved . Mr . Messenger wanted to know if this
was the councils idea or Mr. Pitstick' s idea. Mr . Pitstick
explained that it was his statement, and that he is very
interested in opening a line of communication between
himself and the citizens of Wylie. He went on to say that
he felt like a questionaire would provide the city with
ideas of where the citizens would rather see the services
cut if the rollback were to occur . Councilman Blakey stated
that he would also like to have an idea of what the public
as a whole wants .
Mr . Messenger went on to say that he had seen the figures on
the budget comparisons , and that the figures didn' t seem to
make sense. City Manager, John Pitstick, told Mr . Messenger
that if he would like to come to City Hall , he would explain
what each figure represented , line by line.
Councilman Akin stated that the council needed to let all
the people know all the facts.
Mr . Allen Nosar, 505 Rustic Place, approached the council
asking if it would be possible to distribute some form of a
newsletter, as he had found that most of the citizens of
Wylie do not subscribe to the Wylie Newspaper . City
Manager, John Pitstick, explained that if the citizens are a
water customer , there is information going out in the bills
almost monthly, and that one of his main goals is to open
the lines of communication with the public with some kind of
an information format. Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan mentioned that
there will also be a large bulletin board posted at the
municipal complex where information will be posted , but that
it is very difficult to reach all citizens .
COUNCIL DISCUSSION:
Councilman Crane questioned Mr . Roy Faires, Code Enforcement
Officer, that if a sign that is sitting on a truck on the
Minyard property on Highway 78 , wasn' t in violation of the
sign ordinance, and what staff is doing about it . Mr .
Faires explained that the case in district court still has
not been settled, therefore the cases have not been heard in
7
municipal court. Mr . Faires noted that the city is still
issuing complaints for violation of the ordinances .
Councilman Crane said that he was still waiting on a year
end budget . City Manager, John Pitstick, explained that
staff had just finished the year end and are updating the
budget, but wanted council to see both at the same time,
which should be ready by the end of the week.
Councilman Crane also wanted to know how the move-in to the
new complex was coming . City Manager, John Pitstick,
explained that the move was still planned for November 20th,
but some problems had developed with moving the tower at the
police department and the change over in the phone system
still had to be planned . He further explained that the
office would be closed on November 20th, and would be
reopened on November 23rd.
Councilman Crane asked City Manager, John Pitstick, if there
was a reason why there would be city patrol officers out in
the Beaver Creek area, as he was concerned about how many
services we are providing that area. Mr. Pitstick stated
that he wasn' t sure, but would talk to the Police Chief and
find out .
Councilman Crane also expressed that he didn' t feel like our
police officers should deliver council packets to the Wylie
News , as they don' t deliver to any other news media.
Councilman DiTota stated that he had noticed that there is a
grass lot located at Highway 78 and FM 544, which appears to
be becoming another junkyard. Mr . Faires , Code Enforcement
Officer, stated that it wasn' t another junkyard, it was just
a contractor who uses a lot of equipment . Councilman DiTota
asked Mr . Faires to look into it.
Councilman Akin asked if the council had ever gotten a
report from the county on the Sanden Boulevard. City
Manager, John Pitstick, stated that the city has received
the preliminary report and more studies would need to be
done, and that he would be working with the county to move
ahead on it . Councilman Akin asked what the final width of
the road is. Mr. Pitstick replied that the city has
$847 ,000 to build a full bridge and at least three lanes
from FM 544 to Hwy 78 . Councilman Akin was concerned as to
why the city was using the 1983 bond money to construct
Sanden Blvd. , rather then fixing pot holes in the streets
already in Wylie. Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan explained that the
money could not be used for repairing streets, but for
constructing major county thoroughfares, and that Sanden
Blvd. is a section of a thoroughfare. Councilman Crane
stated that he felt like allocating the 1983 bond money to
Sanden Blvd. was fulfilling a commitment to Sanden. City
Manager , John Pitstick, explained that the bond money didn' t
have anything to do with Sanden Corporation, but was being
used to build the road . Mr . Pitstick stated that a request
has been made for more bond money in 1988 for Sanden Blvd. ,
in case there wasn' t enough money right now to complete the
whole road.
Mayor Pro-Tem Donovan asked Mr . Faires, Code Enforcement
Officer, what was happening with the junkyard going out to
Lavon on Hwy 78 and the one going out to Garland on Hwy 78 .
Mr . Faires explained that the cars are being moved out of
the junkyard going to Lavon and that the owner had six
months to have them completely moved out, before more fines
would be imposed. Mr . Faires said he would check on the one
going toward Garland and get back to council with a report .
There being no other business, a motion was made to adjourn
with all in favor .

PRESENTATION BY MR. MIKE PLISOWSKI , PRESIDENT PERFORMANCE
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CORP. : This presentation was in regards
to the City of Wylie Sign Ordinance, but has been pulled at
the request of Mr . Plisowski .
APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION ADOPTING STREET ASSESSMENT POLICY
(1/3 EACH) : City Manager John Pitstick said there has not
been any written policy and most cities have a 1/3 policy on
street reconstructions . Staff would like some policy on
this and to proceed with appraisal . Mayor Pro Tem Donovan
said she was not against the 1/3 , but Birmingham was done on
a 60/40 and Stone on 60/40 basis. Callie Court has been
told they would be done on a 60/40 basis at the time they
annexed. Mayor Pro Tem Donovan asked if it was mandatory to
have the appraisal . City Manager John Pitstick said it was
the best way to assess the property. Mayor Pro Tem Donovan
wanted to know if staff could take the top 6 or 7 streets on
the list and begin the paper work so in the Spring we could
begin work on the streets . City Manager John Pitstick said
some of these will need design and drainage but staff can go
ahead and begin the paper work. City Manager John Pitstick
also stated his biggest concern is to make sure we have a
good base before we lay the street . Councilman Crane wanted
to know if there was any commitments from the school on
Birmingham. Finance Director James Johnson said he thought
it was 50/50 commitment.
Mr . Jim Feivor of 315 Callie Court said he had three
proposals from the City on reconstruction of their streets .
The proposals are 63 .9% for City and 36 . 1% for property
owners. This is what was presented to us. There is a
charge on here for use of equipment. City Manager John
Pitstick said equipment charges are for hourly use of the
City equipment. Mr. Feivor said the tax payers are paying
for this equipment and now you are going to put another
charge on the use of this. City Manager John Pitstick said
you are charged for in kind services it is like charging for
labor. Mayor Trimble said by charging it to this job it
helps to take some cost off the tax payers for fixing your
street. Mayor Pro Tem Donovan said it also helps the City
put the funds in the right department . Mr . Feivor said
there are a lot of bad streets in Wylie. That is because
citizens do not want to pay for their street to be fixed.
Councilman Crane said that 1/3 proposal is what most cities
set for their policies. Mr . Feivor said we were told fifty
cents per square foot and that is where we are at. We went
into this planning on $1 ,500 . to $2,000 .
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Donovan to approve the
Resolution with 1/3 policy, to exempt Birmingham from Kirby
to Ballard Streets and Callie Court and Donna Drive.
City Manager John Pitstick said Callie Court and Donna Drive
property owners needed to understand that a cul-de-sac was
to be built at the end of these streets in order for
emergency equipment to make a turn around. Mr . Clyde Key
said he lives at the end of Callie Court and he would give
up some of his property for the cul-de-sac.
Councilman Crane said to designate the front of a house and
the corner house only be assessed for the one street. It
seems like an unusual thing to be assessed for both
streets. Mayor Pro Tem Donovan said that staff would not be
doing both streets at the same time. Mayor Trimble said the
only problem with that is some streets like Butler, we would
not have any participation, as most of these homes face
other streets, yet this is one of our bad streets.
//
Another citizens wanted to know if the City of Wylie would
be doing these streets or sub it out . Mayor Trimble said so
far the Bomag Machine would do the reconstruction of the
base work and the overlay would be contracted out .
Councilman Crane seconded Mayor Pro Tem Donovan' s motion to
approve the resolution of 1/3 policy exempting Birmingham
from Kirby to Ballard and Callie Court and Donna Drive. The
vote was as follows : Mayor Trimble - in favor, Mayor Pro
Tem Donovan - in favor , Councilman Akin - in favor,
Councilman Westerhof - in favor, Councilman DiTota - in
favor , Councilman Crane - in favor , and Councilman Blakey -
in favor . This motion carried with all in favor.
APPROVAL OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SEVERAL ORDINANCES AND
SETTING TIMES AND LOCATIONS OF SCHOOL ZONES: Motion was

ordinance. Seconded by Councilman DiTota. The vote was as
follows : Mayor Trimble - in favor, Mayor Pro Tem Donovan -
in favor, Councilman Akin - in favor, Councilman Westerhof -
in favor , Councilman DiTota - in favor , Councilman Crane -
in favor, and Councilman Blakey - in favor . This motion
carried with all in favor .

Councilman Crane wanted to know if there would be signs
posted . Mr . Roy Faires, Code Enforcement Officer said there
would be signs "No Trucks" and "Truck Route" .
APPROVAL OF ORDINANCE FOR TRUCK ROUTES: This ordinance
establishes the routes and carrying capacity of trucks
coming through or into Wylie. Motion was made by Mayor Pro
Tem Donovan to approve the truck route ordinance. Seconded
by Councilman DiTota. The vote was as follows : Mayor
Trimble - in favor , Mayor Pro Tem Donovan - in favor ,
Councilman Akin - in favor, Councilman Westerhof - in favor,
Councilman DiTota - in favor , Councilman Crane - in favor ,
and Councilman Blakey - in favor. This motion carried with
all in favor .
APPROVAL OF FINAL PLAT FOR CONSTRUCTION ONLY FOR WESTGATE
INDUSTRIAL: Mr . Roy Faires, Code Enforcement Officer said
this is a simple sub division of a piece of property. It is
from FM 544 to the Railroad Tracks. Planning and Zoning
Commission recommends approval for construction only.
Councilman Crane wanted to know if we had a written
agreement on the crossing of the railroad tracks . Mr .
Faires said the other section will be coming back in a few
weeks and the railroad crossing will be on it. Councilman
Crane said his only problems is emergency equipment not
being able to turn around. Mr . Faires said in the past it
has always been stated if there is a dead end street with
property next to it the developer will connect the two
streets at time of development. City Manager John Pitstick
said there could be a stipulation upon acceptance that the
street will be put through. Mr . Ron Homeyer, Assist.
Engineer , said the railroad crossing has been approved and
the developer will be coming in with an agreement with the
City. Councilman Crane wanted to know who paid for the
crossing. Mr . Homeyer said the developer. Motion was made
by Councilman Blakey to approve the final plat for
construction only. Seconded by Councilman Westerhof . The
vote was as follows : Mayor Trimble - in favor , Mayor Pro
Tem Donovan - in favor , Councilman Akin - in favor,
Councilman Westerhof - in favor , Councilman DiTota - in
favor , Councilman Crane - in favor , and Councilman Blakey -
in favor. This motion carried with all in favor.
DISCUSSION OF PROPOSED CONTRACT FOR EMERGENCY AMBULANCE
SERVICE: City Manager John Pitstick said this is a
discussion item and will have to come back to Council for
approval . Wylie serves a big portion of Collin County and
staff has notified Collin County Commissioners Court to stop
payments for the County runs. The City will only work
within the City Limits. Staff has been talking with Life
Line and are proposing a contract with this firm. These
people are very interested in getting in Wylie. They are
set up with Wylie Hospital and are based out of Methodist
Hospital . Under this contract the following would be in
effect:
2 year contract with City of Wylie as exclusive
provider of ambulance service beginning Monday, Dec.
14 , 1987
Immediate advanced life support for all emergencies
Performance guaranty or bond
Hold harmless and insurance required
Lifeline is responsible for all hiring of employees,
dispatching , billing and collections
City only dispatches 9-1-1
First year subsidy is covered through the release of 2
ambulances and equipment by City to Lifeline
90 day termination notice ( if Lifeline terminates
before 6 months, City receives 2 ambulances back - if
Lifeline terminates before 1 year, City receives 1
ambulance back)
Emergency response - 8 minutes
Non-emergency response - 15 minutes
All fees approved by the City Council
City Manager is designated liaison between City and
ambulance contractor
Monthly run statements required to city
Annual financial statement to City
Police department is notified of any unusual
circumstances.
/3
Under this contract the City' s only responsibility would be
to dispatch from 9-1-1 . City Manager John Pitstick stated
that staff recommends to proceed forward with this contract.
Councilman Westerhof said in the recent past, the City has
been in contact with other firms to submit contracts to the
City. Both of the other firms had high subsidy and the City
had to furnish housing . The other firm was through the
hospital and it left the City responsible for everything,
which did not help us at all . Methodist dispatch is the
same for careflight which the City has been using. I am
very impressed with this firm.
Mayor Pro Tem Donovan wanted to know if they would hire any
of our employees. City Manager John Pitstick said there is
a lot of training under the Methodist Hospital in order to
work for Lifeline. We do have two (2) full time employees
which we could talk with Lifeline about hiring. City
Manager John Pitstick also stated that Lifeline is looking
at the possibility of leasing the old police station to
house their ambulances in.
Mr . McVey, representative from Lifeline, said if there was a
problem with the trains, and not being able to get an
ambulance across the tracks, a unit could come from Sachse
within three minutes.
Councilman Westerhof said liquidating equipment such as
ours, the market is very soft at this time. Councilman
Crane said the only problem is the second year subsidy. At
the end of the first year , we will be at their mercy, and
will have nothing to help us on the second year . City
Manager John Pitstick said we provide BLS and they will
supply ALS. City Manager John Pitstick said we are spending
$101,000 . and I would hope the second year would not be that
much. Councilman Westerhof said the one firm offered BLS
and wanted $85 ,000 . the other firm offered BLS and wanted
$59, .000 . plus housing for both.
Councilman Akin said $101 ,000 . is that net. Finance
Director James Johnson said that excludes debt services.
Mr. Johnson also stated that we will get some money back but
it comes in slow and there will be a loss.
Councilman Crane wanted to know why staff balked at $59,000 .
Councilman Westerhof said because it was a lower level of
service and we had to provide housing and dispatch.
Councilman Westerhof said he had thought Council wanted to
get completely out of this line of service. Finance
Director James Johnson said there was an anticipated loss of
$75,000 . , that the $101 ,000 . is direct expenses. City
Manager John Pitstick said he sent a letter to Collin County
stating Wylie was not going to make County runs after
January 1 , 1988 . Mayor Pro Tem Donovan wanted to know if
the contract could state a figure that the second year
subsidy would not exceed .
Mrs. Connie Fleming , a representative of Lifeline, stated
that the City units would have to be turned into ALS units .
Councilman Westerhof also stated that under the ALS you are
under state procedures . Mrs. Fleming also stated that when
you are ALS , you must have a paramedic on duty 24 hours a
day and with the unit at all times .
City Manager John Pitstick stated to Council that he would
try to have the final contract before them at the next
meeting.
DISCUSSION OF THE PROPOSED CITIZEN SURVEY: City Manager
John Pitstick said staff would like to get some response
from the Citizens on their concerns. This should also
educate the public on the services we do have. There are
around 2 ,500 to 3 ,000 resident addresses that we have to
send and would like to send a stamped self-addressed return
envelope.
Mayor Trimble said he would like to see some demographical
questions such as how many reside at this address, age
group, average income, etc.
Mayor Pro Tem Donovan said this is rather lengthy and most
of these responses will be negative that come in. I have a
concern that the response will be very low. We already know
our services are not where we want them to be and we do not
have to spend XX amount of dollars to find this out . I
would like to see a letter similar to this and just list the
services we have to offer and go into the rollback if you
think we should. Ask the citizens where to cut and maybe
our phone numbers need to be on this letter and they would
call if they did not response in writing.
Mayor Trimble said he would not mind not getting any
responses, but the opportunity is there for the citizens to
have their say. I think we can come up with good figures
from this survey and if people do not respond then that is a
response in itself .
Councilman Akin wanted to know if we sent out 1/3 of these
and see what type of response. City Manager John Pitstick
said you can but if one person gets one and the neighbor
does not, they will come in, you should go ahead and send
them all out at the same time.
AUTHORIZATION TO ALLOW CITY MANAGER TO PROCEED WITH
NEGOTIATING WITH A PLANNER/ENGINEER/FINANCIAL CONSULTANT FOR
COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN, MASTER PARK PLAN , CAPITAL
FACILITIES PLAN AND IMPACT FEE STUDY: City Manager John
Pitstick said staff has talked about this and the City needs
these studies. In order to up grade our Impact Fees we have
to up grade our Land Use Plan. I am requesting from Council
to allow staff to interview these people then bring back to
Council the top three firms and Council interview them and
hire one of them. A full Impact Fee Study will require a
Planner and Financial Consultant . Staff would bring a
proposal back to Council .
Councilman Akin said the 1980 Land Use Plan had help with a
grant, could this study maybe help with a grant . City
Manager John Pitstick said we can ask for help with grant
monies if they are available.
Councilman Crane wanted to know if this engineer would do
other things not just these studies. City Manager John
Pitstick said there is money in engineering budget to have
an engineer on a contract basis.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Donovan to allow the City
Manager to proceed with negotiating with a
Planner/Engineer/Financial Consultant for comprehensive Land
Use Plan, Master Park Plan, Capital Facilities Plan and
Impact Fee Study. Seconded by Councilman Westerhof . The
vote was as follows : Mayor Trimble - in favor, Mayor Pro
Tem Donovan - in favor, Councilman Akin - in favor,
Councilman Westerhof - in favor , Councilman DiTota - in
favor, Councilman Crane - in favor, and Councilman Blakey -
in favor . This motion carried with all in favor.
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION: Mr. Roy Messinger of 504 Rustic
Place on the ambulance, you budgeted $101,000 and the cost
is going to be less because we are giving them our
ambulance. City Manager John Pitstick said there is
$101 ,000 . for expenses , plus there is some revenue and bond
indebtedness this will net a loss of $75 ,000 . We will give
/5
them a subsidy the first year , which is our equipment and
the second year will be dollars.
Mr . Messinger also stated that he was glad to here about the
questionnaire, this is something that is good.
COUNCIL DISCUSSION: Councilman Akin said there was a
communication problem, the older people who pay their water
bills at City Hall , is there a place where you can pay the
water bills in town. Finance Director James Johnson said at
First State Bank just as soon as we set up the fund.
Councilman Akin also invited each of the Council to attend
the corner stone setting at P.M. Akin Elementary School on
Saturday, at 11 :00 A.M.
Mayor Trimble asked Mayor Pro Tem Donovan if she would be at
the December 8th meeting, he has another commitment and will
not be able to attend this meeting .
Mayor Trimble recessed the open meeting.
Mayor Trimble convened Council into executive session at
9:25 P.M. on the 24th day of November, 1987 under the
authority of Article 6252-17 V.A.C.S. , Section 2 paragraph

be made. This motion was seconded by Cecilia Wood. This
motion passed with all in favor.
CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE AMENDMENT TO ORDINANCE 85-60
WHICH CREATED THE BENEDICT ESTATES PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT,
ADDING A TEMPORARY BUILDING FOR A SALES OFFICE AS AN
ADDITIONAL PERMITTED USE: Chairman Brian Chaney asked Mr.
Faires to comment on this item. Mr. Faires noted that the
Planned Unit Development was designed to be a deviation of the
normal zoning categories. Mr. Faires added that Benedict
Estates which has now been changed to Stone Grove is in the
PUD zoning and the ordinance which created the PUD permitted
certain uses that were not allowed in the regular zoning
ordinances. Mr. Faires told the commission that construction
had begun on seven model homes by seven different builders who
were not affiliated with each other except through the Stone
Grove Builders Association. He also said that since our
present zoning ordinance requires that a real estate office be
in a model home these seven builders were requesting an
amendment to this ordinance for a temporary sales office. Mr.
Faires added that since this was a Planned Unit Development
this request could be listed as one of the permitted uses. He
also went on the say that since these homes were of the
$125, 000 plus range and built by seven different builders to
have a sales office in any one particular unit would give that
builder an advantage over the others. Mr. Faires told the
commission that he saw no harm in this request and that we
should probably grant this amendment. Bart Peddicord asked
Mr. Faires if he knew where they were going to put this sales
office. Mr. Faires said it would be placed on lot 1009 W.
Foxwood Lane. Chairman Brian Chaney asked what type of time
restraint would be placed on these offices. Mr. Faires noted
that the usual time restraint was two years. Cecilia Wood
asked what type of structure was going to be placed there as a
sales office. Mr. Faires said it was the same type they had
for lot sales on Stone Road. Bob Skipwith asked if they were
going to put an individual sales person in each model home.
Mr. Faires said they were not and that they have an agreement
to not sale these models for around eighteen months. - Bob
Skipwith asked if Mr. Faires felt that they would be setting
some type of presidence if they accepted this amendment. Mr.
Faires noted that the only person who could request this would
be one building in a Planned Unit Development. Chairman Brian
Chaney closed the public hearing.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RECOMMENDATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
AMENDMENT TO ORDINANCE 85-60 ADDING A TEMPORARY BUILDING FOR A
SALES OFFICE AS AN ADDITIONAL PERMITTED USE: Bob Skipwith
stated that in this type of subdivision that a sales office
like this one would hurt the builders if left up to long and
that for this reason he felt like they would try to have it
out of there as soon as possible. Mr. Chaney noted that he
did want to see a time limit put on this amendment and that
with the size of the homes and cost of lots that he did not
feel they would be setting a presidence. Marty Stovall asked
if this sales office was already set up in this development.
Mr. Faires noted that it use to be and stated that they wanted
the sales office to be close to the models so people could
access them easily. Marty Stovall asked if they wanted this
sales office until their models were built. Mr. Faires said
no. Brian Chaney added that since there were seven builders
he felt they didn' t want to go to the cost of staffing seven
different homes with one sales office but would rather hire
one sales person to show these models. Bart Peddicord asked
what time limit they were recommending. Brian Chaney noted
that two years was standard. Bob Skipwith moved that they
recommend to the City Council that a sales office could be set
up in this PUD for a period not to exceed two years. Bart
Peddicord seconded this motion. This motion passed with all
in favor.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR WESTGATE TERRACE:
Chairman Brian Chaney noted that this was the item that been
brought to them at the previous meeting and asked Mr. Faires
to tell the commission of the changes. Mr. Faires showed the
commission the plat which he noted they had seen before except
with one minor change which was the relocation of Fleming
Street where they had requested it to be placed. Brian Chaney
asked if the R. O. W. was all on their property.
Mr. Faires said it was and that everything had been checked
with engineering and everything is correct and that he
strongly recommends this item for approval. Cecilia Wood made
the motion to recommend the Preliminary Plat for Westgate
Terrace for approval to the City Council. This motion was
seconded by Marty Stovall. This motion passed with all in
favor.

Staff Report to Mayor and City Council
DATE: SUBJECT: Drought Contingency Plan NO:
Dec. 3. 1987 and Trigger Conditions
A drought contingency plan has been prepared by CH2M Hill
and the City of Wylie Staff for your discussion and review.
The Texas Water Development Board has made this a
requirement for all municipalities who secure bond funds
through their program.
We developed the trigger conditions for the drought
contingency plan with the help of the North Texas Municipal
Water District because we purchase our potable water from
them on a wholesale basis. They have provided us with the
necessary parameters for the trigger conditions as set forth
in the letter from Mr. Carl Reihn to Mr. John Pitstick dated
October 21 , 1987 and attached hereto.
The Staff would like to include this contingency plan and
trigger conditions in the CH2M Hill report which will be
forwarded to the Texas Water Development Board for their
approval .

RE: City of Wylie Conservation Program
Dear Mr. Pitstick:
At your request I have reviewed NTMWD plans for water restrictions
during drought conditions. The NTMWD plan for emergency control
of consumptive use of water compares lake elevation, projected
use, weather conditions, and time of year to determine when
restrictive controls will be applied to municipal customers.
Notice will be provided each municipal customer of impending
restrictions at least thirty days prior to implementation.
The Board of Directors of the NTMWD will make the final deter-
minations on restrictive measures based on the above factors.
The trigger will be lake elevation for consideration of restric-
tions. These are as follows:
Lake Elevation Status Restriction
492-480 MSL Normal None
480-472 MSL Mild 0-10%
472-465 MSL Moderate 10-20%
465-453 MSL Severe 20-50%

The NTMWD would assist each community in maintaining communication
with their citizens on the status of the situation and projected
future effects. All NTMWD municipalities would be restricted
in the same percentages based upon their annual minimums for
the current year.

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Pitstick, City Manager
FROM: Ron Homeyer, Asst. City Engineer
DATE: December 3, 1987
RE: Lake Ray Hubbard Mobile Park
Sanitary Sewer Force Main System
The above referenced project has been forwarded to my office
for approval . The developer , Mr. Roger Finholt, has
requested that this item be presented to the City Council to
obtain approval for construction at the December 8, 1987
council meeting. I received the plans Tuesday, December 1 ,
1987 and forwarded a copy to CH2M Hill Engineering for their
review and approval in accordance with the Council ' s action.
Because of the additional time needed for CH2M Hill to
review the plans. I am unable to forward the plans to the
Council for review. The pipeline is to be installed within
existing dedicated and prescriptive right-of-ways ; thereby,
avoiding the need to secure any additional easements. The
necessary permits for construction within the State Highway
R. O. W. and the county R. O. W. are the only items not secured
and completed at this point, but they are being processed.
The developmental inspection fee for the amount of one ( 1 )
percent of the cost of the project is the only additional
fee that is due prior to the construction commencing. At
this time the developmental inspection fee has not been
paid.
I would like to recommend a couple of additional
requirements to be attached to the approval for construction
of this sanitary sewer system. Due to the past problems
encountered during the construction of the off-site water
line for this mobile home park development, I feel that a
performance and a payment bond be required by the developer,
Mr . Roger Finholt, of his contractor for an amount equal to
the total price of the project prior to the commencement of
any construction, and proof of said bonds shall be presented
to the City of Wylie. I feel that this will insure the
completion of this project as well as protect the City of
Wylie from any possible future liabilities.
