APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO I E DRDINANCE 86-80:
Mr. Santry made the statement to the Council , at the time
this ordinance was passed, it was noted that there might be
some small amendments to it at a later date. Talem, Inc.
and the engineering staff recommend the following amendments
to the ordinance:
Section 16. 2, B, 5. The development and execution of
reasonable and realistic plans for controlling and
abating pollution or potential pollution resulting from
generalized discharges of waste which are not traceable
to specific sources, such as storm sewer discharges,
urban runoff from rainwater, and other non specific
discharges.
Section 16. 3, 0. Except as hereinafter provided, no
person shall discharge or cause to be discharged into
the sanitary sewer or drainage system of the City, or
to the waters of the State of Texas, directly or
indirectly, any of the following described matters,
water, wastewater, or wastes:
Section 16. 3, C, ( 13) Acids or alkalines capable of
causing damage to sewage disposal structures or
personnel or having pH value lower than 6. 0 or higher
than 9. 0
Section 16. 3, D Unless an exception is granted by the
City, the city' s sanitary sewer system shall be used by
all persons discharging domestic wastewater,
industrial wastewater and other polluted water in
accordance with this ordinance and other ordinances of
the City.
Section 16. 4, B The City is entitled to review and
approve the installation and operation of any garbage
grinder equipped with a motor of three-fourths (3/4)
horsepower (0. 76 hp metric) or greater as part of the
permit application for a plumbing permit.
Mayor Trimble wanted to know if there would be any problems
from the narrowing of the pH range. Mr. Santry said no,
this was what the State Health Department and the Texas
Water Commission Board wanted it to be.
Councilman Crane wanted to know if these changes would allow
the City to enforce the issue of control to the persons not
complying with our ordinance.
Councilman Martin wanted to know if this does or does not
control any dump sites that run into our system. City
Manager Gus Pappas said no, this is just on our sanitary
sewer system. Councilman Martin wanted to know about
dumping on top of the ground. Mr. Santry said this was
illegal anyway.
City Manager Gus Pappas said the main body of this ordinance
is aimed at pollution. Mr. Santry said a lot of small
industries are having materials picked up and the trucks are
trying to dump where ever they can. This is a problem the
City of Wylie has been watching.
Motion was made by Councilwoman Donovan to approve the above
amendments to Ordinance No. 86-80. Seconded by Mayor Pro
Tem Fulgham. The vote was as follows: Mayor Trimble - in
favor, Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham - in favor, Councilman
Westerhof - in favor , Councilman Martin in favor,
Councilman Crane - in favor, and Councilwoman Donovan in
favor . This motion carried with all in favor.
CITIZEN PARTICIPATIDN: There were several citizens present
at the meeting, but no one wished to speak.
TIV ILE HOME
PARK: Mr. Bill Burge, park manager at Southfork Mobile Home
Park, resides at 386 Sue Ellen is asking the Council to post
no parking signs along McCreary Road and McMillan Road.
People are parking large trucks and cars there at night and
in the morning when we are trying to bring in mobile homes,
it is impossible to make the turn into Southfork.
City Manager Gus Pappas said there are two lanes of pavement
which was cut down and installed by Southfork Mobile Home
Park. When one of these lanes has cars or trucks parked on
it, then there is only one land for traffic going and
coming . City Manager Gus Pappas stated if the Council
wanted, there would be a no parking ordinance on the January
13th agenda.
AUTHORIZATION TO SEEK BIDS FOR RADIOS FOR NEW SQUAD CARS:
This is a budgeted item but does require staff to seek bids.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham to grant
authorization for staff to seek bids for radios for new
squad cars. Seconded by Councilman Martin. The vote was as
follows: Mayor Trimble in favor, Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham
in favor, Councilman Westerhof - in favor, Councilman Martin
- in favor, Councilman Crane in favor , and Councilwoman
Donovan - in favor. This motion carried with all in favor.
AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED WITH WII��IN{�_DF_ PAVEMENT FOR
ION PROJECT IN WYLIE RANCH EAST: Mr.
Feivor of 315 Callie Court has come before the Council to
ask Council to widen and reconstruct the two streets that
are within Wylie Ranch East addition. City Manager Gus
Pappas said at the time this ETJ plat was approved, the
roads were dedicated to the City of Wylie and we are
responsible for patching them. Mr. Feivor said that the
City accepted the streets 7 years ago and now they are in
much need of repair. The homeowners are willing to
participate with the City in reconstructing these two
streets.
Councilwoman Donovan wanted to know why this has not been
annexed. City Manager Gus Pappas said because they do not
��)
� <�
want to be a part of the City of Wylie. There is a law that
was just recently passed that says a City cannot surround a
parcel of land and not annex it. Since the City has
surrounded this subdivision, Council will have to annex it
in the very near future.
Councilwoman Donovan wanted to know if there is a time frame
on getting these roads reconstructed. City Manager Gus
Pappas said no. There is a concept that when you are
annexed the City has to build a new road for you, this is
not true, the City has to maintain the road.
Councilwoman Donovan said it was her feeling that we do some
of the streets inside the City limits before we do these
streets which are outside the City limits.
City Manager Gus Pappas said if the Council decides to do
these streets, there would have to be appraisals and letter
sent to property owners and a public hearing held.
Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham said in the history of Wylie, the
Council would not give water to people outside the City much
less participate in reconstruction of their street .
Councilman Crane said his personal feelings are to have
taxpayers living on the streets prior to fixing streets.
City Manager Gus Pappas said there are two streets, Callie
Court and Donna Drive. Both are 1 , 390 feet long with
existing pavement width of 12 ft. and 17 ft. We as a City
do have the legal right to access and place liens on
property outside the City if we are reconstructing their
streets. The construction costs of these streets allow for
20 ft. wide strip approximately $38, 503. this includes the
letters, engineering, advertising, labor and materials. The
property owners would be asked to reimburse the City
approximately $13, 900. , leaving the City $24, 603. If a 27
ft. wide strip was put down, the approximate cost would be
$51 , 797. and the property owners would reimburse the City
approximately $18, /65. The question the Council is faced
with is when we do Birmingham, it is coming from General
Fund (tax payers) and from the property owners (tax payers) .
When we do these streets our maintenance will go down, but
can we take tax payers money and do streets that are out
side the City and have no tax payers.
Mayor Trimble asked Mr. Feivor if there was a need for
someone to meet with the home owners about annexing into the
City. Mr. Feivor said they do not want to be a part of the
City, but if they so chose, and annexed these properties, I
do not feel they would object.
Mr. Raymond Frank said that the City is so far behind in
fixing the streets, why do we want to become a part of this
City. In regards to patching, there is no way to patch
these streets, there is no base and the patching just washes
out.
Councilwoman Donovan said the people in the City are paying
for their streets and these people should be put on the
priority list. City Manager Gus Pappas said the only thing
that would make these people happy is to do an overlay and
this would cost approximately $20, 000. and would not last
because there is no base.
Mr. Raymond Frank wanted to know if they annexed, would it
be a year before anything was done to their street. Mayor
Trimble said no, not necessarily, that these projects move
slow and we can not put a time frame on it. Councilwoman
Donovan said if all of property owners are willing to pay,
then your streets could move up on the list.
/ '
City Manager Gus Pappas said if they are 100% there is no
problem but if there is 80% for annexation, does Council
want me to go ahead and annex the entire subdivision. Also
does Council want a 20 or 27 foot street.
Councilwoman Donovan said these may not always be dead end
street so go with 27 ft. wide. City Manager Gus Pappas said
most of the time streets that are dead end are required to
have a cul-de-sac, but when the other subdivision came
before us Mr. Feivor said the property owners in Wylie Ranch
East did not want these to be through streets. City Manager
Gus Pappas said 27 ft. is measured back to back from curb,
you could possible go 26 ft.
Motion was made by Councilman Crane to suggest 25 ft. width
until further study can be made. Seconded by Councilman
Westerhof . The vote was as follows: Mayor Trimble - in
favor, Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham - in favor, Councilman
Westerhof - in favor, Councilman Martin - in favor ,
Councilman Crane - in favor, and Councilwoman Donovan - in
favor. This motion carried with all in favor.
APPROVAL OF UPDATED SERVICE CREDIT WITH TEXAS MUNICIPAL
RETIREMENT SYSTEM: The Texas Municipal Retirement System
offers cities within that system an opportunity to adopt an
ordinance which grants all of our employees in the program
an updated service credit and an increase to those employees
who have already retired. Our contribution rate toward the
retirement system last year was 4. 43%. Our percentage of
contribution would have dropped because of our history, but
we can reduce the amount of that drop and move to 4. 39% and
provide this extra benefit for our employees. The Council
has adopted this ordinance for the past several years.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham to approve and sign
the ordinance adopting the updated service credit with Texas
Municipal Retirement System. Seconded by Councilman Martin.
The vote was as follows: Mayor Trimble - in favor, Mayor
Pro | em Fulgham in favor, Councilman Westerhof - in favor,
Councilman Martin - in favor, Councilman Crane - in favor,
and Councilwoman Donovan - in favor. This motion carried
with all in favor.
APPROVAL OF CONSTRUCTION PLANS FOR LAKE RAY HUBBARD MOBILI:::.
Mr. Santry said this offsite water
line will come from the water tower down to Elm Road and
over to FM 544 and down to Vinson Road. Their needs for the
mobile home park will require a 12" line part of the way and
then go into a 10" line. In reviewing these plans, staff
has determined this line should be a 14" part of the way and
go down to a 12" . This would require oversizing by the
City, plus there would be a few fire hydrants added. | he
plans have been completed and staff does have approval from
Collin County Commissioners Court and from the State
Department of Highways and Public Transportation. Staff
has reviewed these plans and recommends them for approval .
Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham wanted to know if the developer is
putting in this line except for the oversizing. Mr . Santry
said yes, but staff does not have a cost as of this date.
Motion was made by Councilman Crane to approve the
construction plans for the offsite water line for Lake Ray
Hubbard Mobile Home Park. Seconded by Mayor Pro Tem
Fulgham. The vote was as follows: Mayor Trimble - in
favor, Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham - in favor, Councilman
Westerhof - in favor, Councilman Martin - in favor ,
Councilman Crane - in favor, and Councilwoman Donovan - in
favor. This motion carried with all in favor .
APPROVAL OF C.QgNPQDBDER #1 B-CRETE ON
MUNICIPAL COMPLEX: City Manager Gus Pappas stated that the
dollar figure is for the underground conduit for the
/ ��
telephone system for not only the building under
construction but is being stubbed out for the two subsequent
buildings, should they be needed in the future. Mr.
Johnson, Finance Director, has reviewed these figures and
considers it a fair price. The money for this improvement
is available because of the reduced cost in legal fees from
our original estimate of that Counsel for the bond issue.
Councilman Crane wanted to know how we would be receiving
electricity. City Manager Gus Pappas said overhead with
street lights. The logic is that we leave overhead for
electricity until the developer around us puts in
underground utilities and them we will convert.
Mr. Johnson said going underground is necessary to have for
the back up emergency phone system for public department.
Councilwoman Donovan said right now $12, 000. seems like a
lot when we maybe putting up poles for electricity, then why
not go above ground with telephones. City Manager Gus
Pappas said that service comes from the back part of the
lot.
Councilman Crane wanted to know if there was a time limit on
this or could it wait until the figures are in on the
electricity. Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham to
table this item until all figures were in. Seconded by
Councilwoman Donovan. The vote was as follows: Mayor
Trimble - in favor, Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham - in favor,
Councilman Westerhof in favor, Councilman Martin - in
favor, Councilman Crane - in favor, and Councilwoman Donovan
- in favor, This motion carried with all in favor.
FIRE HYDRANT REPORT: City Manager Gus Pappas stated that
last month the Council asked for a report on the fire
hydrants in the City of Wylie. That work has been done and
you will find the list to show the actual location, brand,
line size. This form is also designed so that each fire
hydrant can be inspected at least once every four months.
That activity will begin in January, 1987. There are 196
fire hydrants within the city limits, plus the ones at
Southfork Mobile Home Park have not been put on yet. Some
time back there was an understanding that the fire hydrants
would be check by the Fire Department. This was being done
at the close of each of their meetings, several fire
hydrants were being checked out. Today, I cannot tell you
that is still being done. When fire hydrants are checked,
there should be a gauge put on the plug to check the
pressure and flow. I would suggest that the best way to
assure this testing is getting done is to have public work
crews do this.
Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham wanted to know if and when we had a
paid fire department could this be turned back over to them.
City Manager Gus Pappas said yes.
Councilman Martin wanted to know if it would be better to
use one standard type of hydrant, the list shows several
brands. Mr. Santry said we have already done this and we-
are using Muller.
Councilwoman Donovan wanted to know the cost of a fire
hydrant. City Manager Gus Pappas said around $1200. to
$1400, but this includes the values.
Councilman Crane wanted to know if the physical testing
would give the plugs longer life. City Manager Gus Pappas
said yes.
Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham thanked the city staff for the time
spent and for the report and the map.

APPROVAL OF ONE
BUILDING: The VLK Properties have submitted their final
offer to City staff and it is in the amount of $2900. per
month. This is at a rate of $8. 20 per square foot. This is
the same offer as before, but they are standing firm on this
figure.
Councilwoman Donovan wanted to know if this was iron clad,
what happens if we move out prior to the year being up.
City Manager Gus Pappas said we would be penalized if we
moved out prior to our year being up. The staff has looked
at this and does not believe there is a big gap in between
us completing the building and moving prior to this year
being up. Councilwoman Donovan wanted to know if we could
add this to the lease agreement. City Manager Gus Pappas
said the staff has talked about this and does not believe it
will be a problem. This lease would be up November 30,
1987:,
Councilman Westerhof said he did not agree with this figure,
but in order to avoid a double move he would make a motion
to approve the $2900. per month lease. Seconded by Mayor
Pro Tem Fulgham. The vote was as follows: Mayor Trimble -
in favor, Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham - in favor, Councilman
Westerhof - in favor Councilman Martin - in favor,
Councilman Crane in favor, and Councilwoman Donovan in
favor. This motion carried with all in favor.
Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham addressed Mayor Trimble with the
statement that he thought we had quick these types of
things. Mayor Trimble said are you talking about the
newsletter. Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham said yes, what has been
done in the past year are since April is to bring up
something in public and to inflame a situation, and the next
week it is big headlines in the paper. I think it is very
poor taste. Go to someone face to face. When done this
other way, the news uses it as a big issue and it is
misleading to the public. I will talk with you face to face
with witnesses. Mayor Trimble said he believes in full with
Mayor Pro Tem Fulgham and what his concern is that we are
misrepresenting the City by putting out a news letter
entitled City of Wylie with the logo on it. I think there
are problems with using the logo. Councilwoman Donovan
asked City Manager Gus Pappas if Council did not approve a
newsletter back in one of our workshops. Mayor Pro Tem
Fulgham said he proposed it, but that Council turned it
down. Councilwoman Donovan said it was turned down for
those few months, but wasn` t it to be a possible expenditure
in 1987. Finance Director James Johnson said this was one
of the items Council cut from the budget . Councilwoman
Donovan said if you use the City Logo, then Council should
approve the news letter prior to mailing it out.
Motion was made to adjourn with all in favor .
