REGULAR AGENDA
1. Consider, and act upon, Resolution No. 2017-25(R), a Resolution of the City of Wylie, Texas
regarding the recommendations of the North Central Texas Council of Governments' Collin
County Strategic Roadway Plan in the City of Wylie and its Extraterritorial Jurisdiction;
and providing for an effective date. (M. Manson, City Manager)
Council/Staff Comments
Mayor Hogue reported the North Central Texas Council of Governments (COG), at the request of the
Collin County Commissioners Court, has conducted an assessment of future transportation needs for
Collin County, including the evaluation of both existing and possible new road corridors. The assessment
process consisted of multiple meetings with elected officials and staff to present the initial findings and to
solicit input, with the goal of achieving a consensus on projects to include in the Mobility 2045 long term
transportation plan. Inclusion in the Mobility 2045 plan would set the stage for a detailed environmental
study and a public involvement process.
Mayor Hogue explained the proposed resolution was provided in the packet. He reported staff tried to
include items of concern that were voiced at the November 9th Council Work Session, without placing
blinders to the need for additional roadways to accommodate the growing population. He reported that
over the past ten years, the City has spent over 75 million on Wylie roadways which have greatly
improved mobility throughout the City. Council also must be aware of the way County officials will view
the recommendations in this resolution. Mayor Hogue indicated commissioners may choose not to fund
City roadway projects if the City does not support the county recommendations; this could mean less
funding from the state and federal government.
City Manager Manson reported NCTCOG had provided a new thoroughfare proposal on their website
after clearly hearing comments from the November 9th work session. The possibility of a north/south
freeway extending through Wylie is no longer indicated on the proposed plan. They are now looking at
the availability of other thoroughfares. NCTCOG felt the east loop was too far east and needed to be
revised. Manson noted this is the only freeway still recommended on the plan. She indicated the
proposed plans had not changed very much in the past 35 years.
Mayor Hogue read the proposed resolution and explained why certain items were included. Section 1. B
was added, he explained, even though this bridge is not in the City's jurisdiction. This was done to try and
work with Collin County so the City continues to receive federal dollars. He asked for input from the
Council.
Councilman Wallis commented that he understood the City did not want to upset Collin County however
removing the "bridge over Lake Ray Hubbard" verbiage of Section B would show that the City is being
passive but not confrontational. He also asked that the word "support" be struck and only say encourage
further study. Councilwoman Arrington, Councilman Dahl, and Councilman Forrester concurred with
Councilman Wallis in removing the bridge over Lake Ray Hubbard verbiage, only.
Mayor Hogue read Section 1, Item C and Item D for Council consideration. Councilman Wallis
commented that he wanted "the support of improvements to existing bridges and new bridges over Lake
Lavon"to be taken out of the section. Other councilmembers were satisfied with Section D as written.
Mayor Hogue read Section 1, Item E to the Council. All Council members were in favor of the proposed
section.
Council Action
A motion was made by Councilman Forrester, seconded by Councilman Dahl to approve
Resolution No. 2017-25(R), regarding the recommendations of the North Central Texas Council

north-south and east-west thoroughfares", and striking "including a bridge over Lake Ray

Staff Comments
Building Official Bret McCullough gave a short PowerPoint presentation regarding the next ten items. He
explained some of the important changes in the 2015 Edition of the Building Codes when compared to
the current 2012 Edition. He explained that in the interest of advancing regional uniformity in efficient
design and safety of building systems by promoting a common code; the North Central Texas Council of
Governments Regional Code Coordinating Committee encourages member jurisdictions to adopt the
recommended codes along with their respective regional amendments. Contained in each Ordinance are
the 2015 Edition of the Codes and all regional and local amendments.

Staff Comments
Wylie Fire Department and the City of Wylie are currently an Insurance Services Office Class One rated
municipality. In an effort to maintain the current ISO rating and remain proactive in fire prevention, the
Wylie Fire Prevention/Community Risk Reduction Division has been actively participating in the North
Texas Council of Governments Fire Advisory board meetings. The goal of the Fire
Prevention/Community Risk Reduction Division is to maintain and prevent deficiencies in future ISO PPC
ratings, due to fire code, and remain current in relation to industry standard fire code. Based on past
discussion with the Wylie Building Official, and the Prevention/Community Risk Reduction Division, this
code revision aligns the fire code in line with the current International Building Code (IBC) 2015. The
Wylie Fire department requests the adoption of the 2015 International Fire Code NCTCOG regional
amendments, Option B track. This will provide for the best protection of life and property in Wylie from
construction with the building code and maintenance over our occupancy's lifetime through this updated
fire code.

WORK SESSION
• Discuss third party energy management and procurement services. (C. Holsted,Asst. City
Manager)
Assistant City Manager Chris Holsted addressed Council stating that in 2016, Council approved
Resolution No. 2016-04(R) authorizing the Texas Coalition for Affordable Power, Inc. (TCAP) to
negotiate an electric supply agreement for five years for deliveries of electricity. TCAP
successfully negotiated a rate of $36.84/MWh and the City of Wylie is currently under contract
with Gexa Energy, LP for our electric service through December 2022.
Hoisted explained that staff recently met with Energy by 5 to discuss energy management and
procurement services. There is an opportunity to lock in power prices for 2022-2026 at almost
the same rate as the current contract allowing the City to maintain a flat monetary spend on
electricity for the next 9 years.
Josh Coleman, representing Energy by 5, gave a short presentation showing the advantages of
working with his company to lock in a competitive bid for energy with cost savings to the City.
Direction from Council was to further research this option and report back to Council at a future
meeting.
• Discuss revisions to, and the renewal of, the Solid Waste and Recycling Contract with
Community Waste Disposal,L.P. (C. Hoisted,Asst. City Manager)
Assistant City Manager Holsted addressed Council stating that the City of Wylie contracted with
Community Waste Disposal (CWD) in 2008 to provide solid waste and recycling services. The
contract was renewed in 2013 and expires in September 2018. City staff has been working with
CWD to identify any possible contract revisions to provide better service, reduce complaints,
and reduce staff time
Hoisted reported the utility billing and code enforcement departments spend considerable staff
time related to bulk pickup. Currently, citizens must contact CWD to schedule bulk pickup and it
is limited to 24 cubic yards per year. Holsted explained CWD has priced two options for
regularly scheduled bulk pickup, thereby eliminating the need to call in to schedule service. He
reported the increased cost is $0.89/month for once a month pickup, and $2.97/month for
weekly pickup. Currently Wylie is one of the lowest fees charged by surrounding cities.
Craig Roemer, president of Community Waste Disposal, addressed Council requesting the
Council also consider adding front load recycling in the list of exclusive franchise services and
apartment recycling as a mandatory service.

Council discussed the options for monthly recycling versus weekly recycling and gave direction

voiced their satisfaction with the service CWD was providing.
