Consider, and act upon, approving the property tax increase reflected in the budget. (L. Bantz, Finance Director) Staff Comments Finance Director Bantz addressed Council stating that the tax rate used in preparing the FY 2017-2018 Proposed Budget is $0.781 per$100 of assessed valuation. This tax rate is below the effective tax rate of$.781014 and represents a decrease of$0.0679 (6.79 cents) from the tax rate in FY 2016-2017. This agenda item is required by state law because there will be an increase in total tax revenue the City receives due to new property that was added to the tax roll and an increase in the total property assessed valuation. Section 102.007 of the Texas Local Government Code and Texas HB 3195 require the governing body to hold a separate vote to ratify this increase in property tax revenue that is reflected in the budget.

The adopted Fiscal Year 2017-2018 budget requires the support of this ordinance for funding. This tax rate represents a decrease of 6.79 cents from the 2016-2017 tax rate.

Mayor Hogue convened into a Work Session at 6:25 p.m. WORK SESSION • Discuss the status of the hail storm repairs. (C. Hoisted,Asst. City Manager) Assistant City Manager Chris Hoisted addressed Council stating that included in the council packet were the total funds collected from the hail storm by location; to date this total is a little over 3 million dollars. He explained that the estimates for the repair of the Public Safety Building were also included. He noted there was additional funding available to the City, once the building is repaired. Those funds include depreciation and overhead. There are also funds available for the repair of the millennium tile on the three Municipal Complex buildings. He asked for direction regarding the tile. The options available are: to replace the tile (depreciation would be reimbursed), replace portions of the tile (depreciation would be funded for the portions repaired), or use the money toward the repair of the Public Safety building (no depreciation reimbursed). City Manager Manson reported that the damage of the tiles was not dramatic and recently one of the architects from Holzman-Moss had indicated that in his opinion the tile could be left as it is. If replaced a large portion would have to be to replace, to insure color match. Minutes September 12, 2017 Wylie City Council Page 5 Mayor Hogue asked if the depreciation would be left on the table if the tile repairs were not made. Assistant City Manager stated that was correct. Mayor pro tern Stephens asked if the tile was not replaced and there was another hail storm would the insurance company pay for the damage. Hoisted replied that if the tile was not replaced, insurance would not cover any future damage. Councilman Forrester stated that with 30% depreciation on the tile, which calculates to approximately $230,000 and the Council chooses not to replace the tile, the City is leaving a large amount of money on the table. He said it would be beneficial to know the lifespan of the - millennium tile before making that judgement. Councilwoman Culver asked Mr. Hoisted if he knew the life cycle of the tile. Mr. Hoisted stated he did not but would find out and report back to Council. RECONVENE INTO REGULAR SESSION • Mayor Hogue reconvened into Regular Session at 6:34 p.m. ADJOURNMENT A motion was made by Mayor pro tern Stephens, seconded Councilman Forrester to adjourn the meeting at 6:35 p.m. A vote was taken and the motion passed 6-0 with Councilwoman Arrington absent.
