This agreement outlines the provisions for the joint use of school and city facilities including scheduling, maintenance and liability issues. It also encourages the joint acquisition and development of school/park sites in College Station. Lincoln Center: Allows the CSISD to use the facility free of charge. City vans are used on a daily basis to transport students from certain elementary schools to the Lincoln Center. This allows the tutorial students to get to the center in a timely manner and begin homework assignments. In 1998, the City and CSISD joined together to provide a computer lab at the Lincoln Center. The hardware and software was purchased through a grant. The CSISD pays for the labor to maintain the equi.ment, as well as some of the instructors in the lab. The City maintains the building, janitorial services, additional instructors, and donates a portion of the Center Supervisor's time to coordinate and supervise the program. Conference Center: The CSISD has a special rate on rooms at the Conference Center. The fees and deposit are waived Monday through Friday 8am — 5pm. Times other than M-F 8-5 would require fee charges but the deposit would still be waived. Equipment usage costs are billed to the user no matter the time of day. The alternative school meets at the Conference Center and Teen Center periodically at no charge. Pavilions: Pavilions are rent and deposit free. The heaviest use is at the end of May for class parties and outings. In fiscal year 2000, we had 41 rentals for this purpose. It is a great time for the students and teachers. Staff time for check-in and clean up after the event is absorbed by the City. City Pools: The summer camp program utilizes the three outdoor swimming pools. Thomas and Hallaran pools are at no charge and Adamson Lagoon is at half price. Class parties are given a 60% discount ($100 vs. $250). A family swim pass ($200 each) is donated to each school (9) annually for their PTO or PSST fund raiser. Kids Klub (1987): The financial aspects are handled by the CSISD and the City handles the programming, training, and supervision. The program pays for itself, except for approximately 2/3 of the School Age Care Specialist, which the City pays for, and CDBG funding supplements low-income participants. A facility use agreement allows the Kids Klub to operate at six CSISD campus locations and the CSISD Natatorium. College Station Junior High School Natatorium (1995): CSISD reimburses the City for lifeguard costs only during the time CSISD programs are in the pool (4th grade, 7th grade, and swim team). The City covers supervisory costs. All chemicals and repair costs are covered by the CSISD. Youth Basketball: The aforementioned facilities joint use agreement allows the City's Parks and Recreation Department to use CSISD gym facilities to conduct youth basketball leagues for children of all ages. Xtra Education (1996): The CSISD provides classroom space for classes along with utilities and a building attendant. The city is allowed to mail the flyers out using the CSISD bulk mail stamp, but the City covers the cost of postage. Capital Projects: Jack & Dorothy Miller Park: half of the property was purchased by CSISD next to Southwood Elementary. The City obtained an additional 5 acres in 1988 and the School District provided $75,000 toward the development of the park. Pebble Creek Park: The developer gave 4.2 acres for parkland next to the school property. CSISD dedicated 6 acres and the 10.2-acre park was developed with $199,000 from 1995 municipal bond funds. Part of the Pebble Creek Park is located on CSISD land adjacent to the elementary school. At Pebble Creek Park and Jack and Dorothy Miller Park sites, mowing, trash removal, tree maintenance, playground maintenance, etc. are provided by the City. These are both joint use sites that are used for schoolyards during the day and are parks at night. Willow Branch Tennis Courts: (CSISD property): $125,000 in park land dedication funds (the total cost of the project is $222,531). The remainder will be paid by CSISD. Completion is expected by December 2000. Four courts and a small parking area are included in the project. Wolf Pen Creek Amphitheater: A&M Consolidated Orchestra Concerts have no fees for the facilities or staffing. 2 Parks and Athletic Fields: Daily maintenance of two Senior League baseball fields for a 13 game season from mid January — mid April. The adult soccer fields at Southwood Athletic Park are used to support the Junior High football program and physical education classes. The football team practices and plays approximately two games each week. Lining the field and trash removal are provided at this site. Bee Creek softball fields are utilized by the JV and Varsity softball program for tournaments. Past usage has included practices and games.

All involved like the program, but want to get one more year under their belt before the decision is made to expand the program to other campuses within the district. D.E.A.D.: With the great success of the DWI awareness program, it looks like this will be done every three years. Everyone involved feels it will lose impact if conducted on and annual or biannual basis. Planning will start in the spring of 2001 for a possible fall of 2001 program. Fire Prevention Week (FPW): FPW is an activity in the schools. As in the past, all elementary students will receive a program during FPW and we will hit the fifth and sixth grade campuses later in the month. Career Investigation Classes and Fairs: This is a presentation given to the 7th and 8th grade students where firefighters and paramedics talk to the students and give them information on their career choice. We also attend the joint BISD-CSISD career fair held in the fall at the Brazos Center and provide the same information. General Fire Prevention Classes: We provide classes on a request basis from all campuses dealing with items from fire extinguishers use by kitchen staff to lab safety for high school students, and anything in between.

These Officers use much of their free time mentoring and being role models to the students. CSISD reimburses the City for 75% of the SRO's base salary and benefits. S.A.V.E. - This is a two-session curriculum, which is taught to students at the 4th, 5th, and 6th grade levels Jr. High Police Academy - Patterned after the popular Citizen's Police Academy, the Jr. High Police Academy teaches Criminal Justice classes at the Middle School level and allow students to learn more about law enforcement. Support Programs and Projects: Campus Crimestoppers: - Patterned after the popular Crimestopper program this program awards students monetarily when their tips lead to the arrest and conviction of a criminal offender. Students hold fundraisers to raise money for the awards. Each year the SRO, a teacher, and a select number of students attend the State Campus Crimestoppers Conference. John E.

Public Communications & Marketing Department Channel 19: The City and school district share the cable access channel on a 50/50 basis. The City programs information for every top half of every hour and the school district programs information for the bottom half of every hour. Therefore, each entity airs their information 30 minutes of every hour. If needed, the entities devise schedules to air videotapes that run longer than 30 minutes. Satellite Downlink System: The City and school district entered into an interlocal agreement for the City to utilize CSISD's satellite downlink system to download educational and information programs to air on Channel 19. These programs are kept in a shared video library. Distribution of Information: The school district is a valuable tool for the distribution of written City information.

Venue Project Tax D ang the 1997 session the Texas Legisi e passed House Bill 92, the sports and community venue project legislation.167 It has been suggested that the°Elgin,' intent of this legislation w to provide cities and counties with greater authority to fi ce the constzuction of stadi n facilities for professional spans te rn However, as finally enacted,the bill provides cities and counties with broad aH is2rity to finance a wide m4y of economic development projects in addition to the constuction of sports stadiums. In paticular,H e Bill 92 pe Is cities and counties to propose the adoption of a flL rber of new revenue so es to fiirice any economic development project authorized by law. Cities uid counties may choose to propose a venue project tax if they are interested in diversifying the so es of revenue they have to promote a specific economic developm.m project. The venue project revenue sources that can be adopted include a sales tax,a hotel occupancy tax,a shoterrn motor vehicle rental tax,an event parking tax,an event: missions tax,and a venue facility use tax. Additionally,the venue sales tax nari be sed in crctin limited cases even if the city is already at its maxim sales tax rate; in this circuntxance,the le islation allows the voters to approve n automatic reduction of another nxlsting sales tax to make room for the nue tax. Before a local goy ant niJiy use any of the taxes authorized by House Iill 92,both the tax and the venue project on which it will be spent must be approved by the voters. The proceeds m such a tax may be spent only on the approved venue project. The sports and community venue legislation added Chapter 334 and Chapter 335 to the Local Government Code and Section 321.508 to the Tax Code. WithTh these provisions, cities and counties are authorized to propose at an election both the approval Q!CeTu1mI public projects and the revenue sources that would fkmd those projects. A city or county may undertake a venue project under Chapter 334 only if it receives approval of the project and its financing at such an election. At this election,the city or county must specifically indicate which of six different taxes or fees it will use to pay for the costs of the prject. Aitanmafively,two or niro cities,two or more comities,or a coMbinaton of cities and counties may create a"spoits rid coiinunity venue distict"wmter Ckirpter 335 of the Local Govamrnent Code. Subject to voter approval,such a distict may carry out hie se type of projects and propose the same cing m ds as an individual city or couriity could under Chapter 334. • FLanily, Seddon 321508 of the Tax Code allows a city to propose at an election the dedication of up to 25% of its exiating sales tax to pay off debt issued to fmance one or more economic development pmjcct located in the city. Eligibility to Undertake a Venue Project Chapter 334 of the Texas Local Government Code appears to apply to all cities and counties in Texas,with certain special conditions set forth for the City of Houston and Harris County.'" The • 2000 nomic Development Handbook 0 Office of the Attorney General 56 esu 4'11, OAGIRD a Akernative inmares r or Loan uvesuppg.8 005/012 • legislation otherwise applies to cities and counties regardless of population and geography and can be udlized even if the city or county is already participating in a rapid r- sit authority or is c iF ently at its limit for the local sales tax. In,the case of an entity that is at its m, local sales tax rate, the ballot would have to indicate which sales tax would be reduced to accommodate the newly prosed sales tax to ftin the venue project. Periiiisib1e Projects Under Chapter 334 • • Chapter 334 allows ; city or cünty to undermie a"venue project" The Lerrvenue project" is defined as a " enue and related ir tiructure that is pLrrneiI, acquired, established, developed, consructed, or renovated under this chapter! The tern.' "venue" is defined as being one of the folio g: L Arena,coliseum,stad" ,or other type of area or facility:if* a. That is used or will be used for professional or at- sports,or for co n ity and civic and c, !table events; and b. Where a fee for airniion to these eve=will be c1urged; or 21 Conventi n canter or a related improvement that is located in the vicinity of the • convention center. The t "related improv eat"is used rather broadly nid includes such things as civiccenr hotels, auditoriurris,theaters, opera or music halls, exhibition halls, rah, sal halls,parka, os,inweuins,or -v.;or 3. Tourist development area along an inland water way; or 4. A ,,Avnicipal parks and rcrndon systeii, improvements or additions to a parks nd recrmition syste , or an area or facility that is past áf a murid1pal parks and recreation syst However,it appears that neither the motor vehicle rental tax nor the local had tax authorized by Chapter 334 may be used as arevenue source to pay for avenue project of this nature; 71 or 5.

The focus had been changed from educating the business co unity en the senior clientele base to stimulate them into becoming Senior Friendly. The new focus will hopefully attract businesses to see the benefits of serving the senior population. Wendell Horne suggested that the committee might want to look at a second brochure to educate the co iunity on the senior population. Suggested changes included: In the first colu strike the word "surprising". The phrase should read, "Retirees are moving to College Station at an increasing rate". In the second colur change first phrase to read, "Merchandise for seniors" Wording in second colu needs to se in a larger font and in brief statements. The lower half of second column should list recognition for Senior Friendly Award recipients such as certificate and recognition at a City Council Meeting, public recognition in the newspaper and city publications and decal for store window. The third colu should read "Tell us about you business" and omit top paragraph . Marci will contact businesses and present final draft at the January eeting. IV. Senior Nee's Assessment time line: Marci passed around copies of the Eisenhower Leadership Development Program proposal for Senior Pro u ams and Facilities for the City of College Station. Steve Beachy submitted the proposal and the students for the George Bush School of Government and Public Service will vote on the projects and if we are selected the students have been asked to research and identify what facilities will be needed for seniors in our corn rnunity.
