Staff developed several design alternatives to accomplish the goals of the project, and made attempts to meet the needs of the property owners, to the extent possible. A brief summary of the alternatives is listed below: Option 1: Remove all the on-street parking, provide 8-feet wide sidewalks with street trees, new concrete pavement (width will vary since ROW width varies), replace/rehabilitate the utilities and allow for two- way traffic. Option does not require an amendment to the UDO. This option will require a small amount of additional ROW and/or an access easement along Tauber near Cherry Street. This option will result in the loss of approximately 202 parking spaces along Tauber and Stasney. Option 2: Mill the old pavement and overlay with a new asphalt surface. Replace/rehabilitate the utilities. Address the pavement grade issues along Tauber between Cross and Cherry. Do not construct new sidewalks or install street trees. All head-in parking and parallel parking will remain. Maintain two- way traffic along Tauber and Stasney. This option will require a clarification to the definition of a rehabilitation project in the UDO. Option does not require additional ROW, and will not result in the loss of any parking spaces along Tauber or Stasney. Option 3: Remove head-in parking along Tauber and Stasney, replace/keep parallel parking where possible along Tauber and Stasney as permitted by the UDO. Amend the Northgate Parking Plan to allow for on-street parking in NG-3 along one side of Tauber and one side of Stasney, provide 8-feet wide sidewalks with street trees, new concrete pavement, replace/rehabilitate the utilities and allow for two- way traffic. Maintain two-way traffic along Tauber and Stasney. This option does not require an amendment to the UDO. This option will require a small amount of additional ROW and/or an access easement along Tauber near Cherry Street. This option will result in the loss of approximately 137 parking spaces along Tauber and Stasney. Bob Cowell, ACIP, Director of Planning and Development Services spoke about the parking and parallel parking. Staff created these alternatives to assist the Council in determining the potential negative and positive impact of considering City funded capital projects, initiated to improve safety and the reliability of city services, as a rehabilitation project as defined in the UDO. Staff recommended that the Tauber and Stasney Street Rehabilitation Project proceed according to Option 3. Fire Marshall Eric Hurt explained the purpose for one way streets, one side of street parking, and sidewalk accessibility. Council member Maloney made a motion to approve option 3 and amend Northgate parking plan. Council member Stewart seconded the motion. Council member Crompton abstained from the vote. Mayor ProTem McIlhaney, and Council members Massey, Ruesink and Crompton expressed concerns of voting in workshop session. Also, would like to see more input from citizens in a public hearing.

XIII. A resolution approving this form of the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation was adopted by the (governing body – Commissioners Court/City Council/etc.) of (county/city/authority) on the ___ day of ___ 2009.

Given under my hand and seal of office this the _________day of __________ ,2009 __________________________ Name Notary Public in and for The State of Texas 19 South Central High Speed Rail and Transportation Authority, Inc Notes on Background and Purpose A 501(c)3 local government corporation (LGC) established under Chapter 431, Texas Transportation Code, Subchapter D, the South Central High Speed Rail and Transportation Authority (SCHSRTA) would unite cities, counties, rail districts, and navigation districts generally along the federally-designated South Central and Gulf Coast High Speed Rail Corridors to develop high-speed rail in these corridors. Per the provisions of existing Texas Code, this corporation will have the same authorities and powers as does its various members. This will be the entity that will have the authority to formally engage with the federal government, other state governments, and the private sector in regards to the design, construction, operation, and financing of the Texas T-Bone High-Speed Rail Corridor. Key facts: ¨ Texas cities and counties own and operate various transit agencies, airports, and seaports, etc – many of which were established through agreements and partnerships such as this LGC. ¨ Developing high-speed rail through an LGC helps to ensure that the decisions regarding project financing, construction, facility location, performance standards, etc, are made with substantial input from the communities most directly impacted by these decisions. ¨ Federal high-speed rail statutes, currently being drafted, will require a designated liaison from each state/corridor. This LGC will be ideally positioned, especially following the passage of CSSB 1570, to actively pursue existing and future federal high-speed rail dollars. ¨ The LGC would work closely with MPOs along the high-speed rail corridors to ensure efficient, seamless connectivity among modes. ¨ Other than nominal filing fees, there is no obligation of funds required for participation in the LGC. The THSRTC implementation plan calls for funding for the initial studies, right-of-way purchase, and construction, etc to be secured from primarily private sector sources, along with available federal and state dollars. ¨ The THSRTC is a 501(c)6 corporation that would continue to function in an advocacy role to advance the goals and objectives of the LGC. How it would work: ¨ Upon the creation of the LGC and the passage of CSSB 1570, cities, counties, seaports, and other political subdivisions of the State actively involved with the LGC will have the authority to negotiate on behalf of the State of Texas to develop high-speed rail along the Texas T-Bone High-Speed Rail Corridor. ¨ The LGC’s Board of Directors would be comprised of representatives of the political entities serving as the incorporators of the LGC. For instance: o To create and join the LGC, cities, counties, etc, would be required to pass a resolution approving the LGC’s articles of incorporation, and would nominate the appropriate number of representatives to serve on the Board. (Currently, the articles provide for a Board of nine. So, should three entities pass concurrent resolutions to create the LGC, each would provide three representatives to the Board.) o Once the resolution is passed by at least one entity, but most likely several cities and counties, the articles will be filed with the Secretary of State and the LGC will be formed. o Upon passage of CSSB 1570, the LGC will move aggressively to formally pursue federal funds, seek an MOU with a private sector consortium, and begin making decisions that would determine, for study purposes, the location of track infrastructure, rail stations, and ancillary facility locations. ¨ Through passage of the appropriate resolution to be included as an original incorporator of the South Central High Speed Rail and Transportation Authority, Inc, cities and counties will have substantial input on the creation and adoption of the LGC’s by-laws and governance structure. 20 (4/16/2009) Hayden Migl - Fwd: Special Notice: Upcoming THSRTC Meetings Page 1 From: Lucy Taylor To:Cargill, Harvey; Migl, Hayden; Neeley, David; Powell, Mary Ann; Robi...

Dallas County approved a resolution on Tuesday, the City of Temple's City Council will consider a similar resolution this evening, and I have heard from most of you regarding the dates already set for your courts and councils to consider resolutions as well. Following a number of productive meetings in Austin on Tuesday and Wednesday, we have quite a bit to discuss in regards to the local government corporation and the THSRTC-approved committee substitute for SB 1570. Please plan on participating in a conference call tomorrow, Friday, April 17 at 1:00 PM. The call in number will be 1.800.416.8128. Please use meeting number 408159#. During its Monday hearing, which begins at 8:00 AM, the Senate Transportation and Homeland Security Committee will consider SB 1570, the bill discussed during our conference call on Monday, April 6. This is easily the most important bill of the entire session for the Corporation, and we would encourage all THSRTC member representatives to make plans to attend the hearing. In preparation for Monday's consideration of SB 1570 by the Senate Transportation and Homeland Security Committee, THSRTC members are encouraged to attend an informal briefing session in Austin on Sunday, April 19 from 4:00 - 6:00 PM in the Austin Suite at the Doubletree Hotel (303 West 15th Street). The attire will be casual, and we will go to dinner following the meeting. I will look forward to hearing from you regarding your availability to participate in the conference call, the Sunday briefing, and the Committee hearing. Thank you again for all of the hard work and valuable time and resources that each of you dedicate to this project. Next week will likely prove to be a definitive step in the effort to advance the Corporation's goals and objectives, and I look forward to working closely with each of you to help ensure that it is a success.

Agenda Caption: Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding approval of a Settlement Agreement and Release between the City and David and Jennifer Weber compensating the Webers for the condemnation of easements necessary for the completion of the Parallel Water Transmission Phase III. Recommendation: Staff recommends Council approve the Settlement Agreement and Release. Summary: The final construction phase of the parallel water transmission line is complete. The City now has enough capacity to move water from the well field to the City to last for the foreseeable future. The construction project included some easement condemnations along the pipeline route, including Mr. and Mrs. David and Jennifer Weber, owners of Machine Works, Inc. On March 27, 2008, City Council approved a Mediated Settlement Agreement, whereby the Council approved $310,749.00 to bore under trees and driveways on the Webers’ property, as well as a total of $38,000.00 to compensate the Webers for the easements and damages, and $3,000.00 to compensate KBS Electrical Distributors, Inc., a tenant on the Webers’ property for damages resulting from the condemnation. Under the approved Mediated Settlement Agreement, the parties agreed that additional compensation may be due the Webers following completion of construction for any damages resulting from the construction. Consequently, Mr Weber and the City have negotiated an additional payment of $16,000.00 to the Webers to compensate them for the death of a large oak tree. The total amount to be paid to the Webers under the proposed Settlement Agreement and Release is $54,000.00.Staff recommends approval of the Settlement Agreement and Release. Budget & Financial Summary: $18,000.00 has already been paid to the Webers following the condemnation hearing. Additional funds in the amount of $39,000.00 are budgeted and available in the Water CIP Fund. This amount is the original $20,000.00 to the Webers before construction, the $3,000.00 to be paid to the Webers’ tenant, and the additional damage claim of $16,000.00.

Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the ordinance to amend the Drought Contingency and Water Emergency Plan. Summary: Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) regulations require us to adopt a revised Drought Contingency Plan by May 1, 2009. Our plan was initially adopted in January 2000 and is titled the “Drought Contingency and Emergency Water Plan.” This plan addresses the City’s response to water shortages or emergencies, regardless the cause, and contains four stages of response actions, depending on the severity of the issue. The Plan was last revised 2005 to accommodate stakeholder feedback, changes in regulatory requirements, and to ensure that the Plan adequately addressed water use during normal and emergency operating conditions. This ordinance has two purposes: First, to renew the City’s commitment to prudent water management, and secondly, to implement one of the “Best Management Practices” that City Council approved in January 2008. This plan contains provisions that prohibit water waste, and allow the City to issue warnings and levy fines ranging from $25 to $500. The amendment also makes the water waste prohibitions applicable year-round and slightly changes the landscape watering hours and schedules. Since these changes are consistent with previous Council direction, staff recommends approval. Budget & Financial Summary: The Plan and its implementation should have minimal financial impact on the City’s water production operations, administration, and enforcement of drought contingency measures.

Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the resolution. Summary: In October 2006 the City Council approved a resolution updating its existing water conservation plan to include quantified 5 and 10 year conservation goals. This was done as a condition of the City’s application to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for a Bed and Banks permit. We are now required to submit a revised water conservation plan to TCEQ no later than May 1, 2009, and every five years after that. The revised Water Conservation Plan for College Station updates the targets and goals in the 2006 plan and satisfies TCEQ requirements. In summary, the goals for reduction of peak per-capita daily water consumption are: · 2008: 284 gallons · 2013: 270 gallons · 2018: 256 gallons Measures undertaken to achieve these reductions are: · Use reclaimed water (treatment plant effluent) to irrigate Veteran’s Park · Routine audits of water system losses · Implementation of inclined water rate structure · Improve verification of water meter accuracy and make repairs · Improve public education regarding irrigation practices and conservation Since this Plan reinforces measures and goals already in place and approved by City Council, staff recommends approval. Budget & Financial Summary: There is no cost to adopt this update to the Water Conservation Plan. Funds or Policy changes required to achieve any particular goal will be brought to Council individually for approval.

In order to meet requirements of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), the City has updated its water conservation plan for adoption as a City resolution. The resolution of the City Council adopting the Water Conservation Plan shall authorize the City to implement, enforce, and administer the program. UTILITY PROFILE Population and customer data The City's Water Services Department manages a water distribution service area of 47 square miles and serves a population of over 80,000 residents. This population amount includes approximately 10,000 students attending and living on campus at Texas A&M University (TAMU) that are not actually served by the College Station water utility. Accounting for these students who reside in College Station, but are served by the TAMU water system, this leaves an actual water service population of over 70,000 residents. The City provides drinking water to its customers through a network of nearly 330 miles of transmission and distribution mains that provide service to over 36,400 water connections. The official U.S. Census population count for the City in 2000 was 67,890, an increase of 29% from the 1990 Census. Population projections for College Station, described in 2006 Brazos Region G Regional Water Plan, forecast the City’s population will reach 80,920 by 2010 and 94,526 by 2020. In comparison, the City’s water consumption peak day demand is expected to increase to almost 25 MGD by 2010 and over 27 MGD by 2015. Water use data Table 1 below summarizes key water use statistics for 2003 – 2008. Average per person usage is given in gallons per capita per day (gpcd). Average and peak daily water demand is given in million gallons per day (MGD). . The peak day to average day ratio varies between 1.71 and 2.11, meaning that peak day demand is nearly twice the average demand. The peak demand for the City is 22.9 MGD, reached in 2008. During high demand periods when large volumes of water are being pumped from the aquifer, the production capacity of the wells is reduced due to declining water levels of the aquifer. The City’s water production and pumping system capacity is currently 23 MGD. Table 1.

The City has eight groundwater wells, six of which withdraw groundwater from the Simsboro Sand formation of the Carrizo-Wilcox Aquifer, and two of which withdraw groundwater from the Carrizo and Sparta formations. The City’s wellfield is located 105 CITY OF COLLEGE STATION 2009 W ATER CONSERVATION PLAN COLLEGE STATION UTILITIES Page 2 of 6 W ATER SERVICES DEPARTMENT northwest of Bryan in the vicinity of Sandy Point Road near Old San Antonio Road. Cooling towers located at the Sandy Point Pump Station cool the raw water from 118° F down to approximately 85°. The water is then pumped through a raw water transmission line to the Dowling Road Pump Station in College Station. Here the water is treated to meet Safe Drinking Water Act standards before being pumped to storage and distribution facilities. The City’s water distribution system includes two ground storage reservoirs and two elevated storage tanks, providing a total storage capacity of 13 million gallons. Wastewater Collection and Treatment System Raw wastewater in College Station travels through a network of over 260 miles of wastewater collection lines to one of two wastewater treatment plants, the Carter's Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Lick Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant. The two wastewater treatment plants and numerous lift stations serve a population of over 70,000 people, with an average daily discharge of 6 to 7 MGD and maximum daily wastewater treatment capacity of 11.5 MGD. SECTION 2 – CONSERVATION GOALS CONSERVATION GOALS The purpose of this water conservation plan is to reduce long-term demand on limited water resources by encouraging more efficient water use practices in College Station. Its primary goals are to reduce peak seasonal water demand and reduce the peaking factor on the water production and delivery system. Goal 1: Reduce peak daily water demand Goal 2: Reduce peaking factor TCEQ rules require the City build capacity to meet escalating peak daily demands, which, as discussed in Section 1, can be up to twice the average demand. Thus, reducing those peak demands will enable the City to defer new capital expenditures for production facilities, and better use of available water resources. The City aims to reduce peak demand through two methods: programs targeted at reducing peak per capita demand, and programs aimed at reducing the peaking factor. Table 2 outlines projected targets for reducing per capita demand and peaking factor. The State Water Conservation Implementation Task Force recommends that municipalities set goals of reducing per capita consumption by 1% per year. The goals proposed in this plan are structured so that consumption is reduced by 1% each year, meeting the ultimate goal within ten years. Table 2. Municipal per capita water use goals Year 2008 2013 2018 Peak GPCD 284 270 256 Annual Average GPCD 137 137 137 Peaking Factor 1.97 1.90 1.81 Goal 3: Maintain unaccounted-for water at or below 10% Table 3. Water Accountability Year 2006 2011 2016 Demand Unaccounted-for Water (Gallons) Unaccounted for Water (%) 10% 9% 8% In any system, water loss may occur due to leaks, line breaks, meter inaccuracies, theft, and other issues. The City monitors water production and water billing on a monthly basis and tracks system 106 CITY OF COLLEGE STATION 2009 W ATER CONSERVATION PLAN COLLEGE STATION UTILITIES Page 3 of 6 W ATER SERVICES DEPARTMENT water loss on a percentage basis. The City has consistently maintained an average water accountability rating of 10%, meaning that water billed is greater than or equal to 90% of water produced. At a minimum, the City will continue to meet this target, and investigate ways to improve water accountability at or above 90%. Time frame for achieving conservation goals The three goals outlined above are designed to be achieved within 10 years of the date of adoption of this Plan. The City will periodically evaluate the plan in accordance with State and Federal regulations to determine the extent, if any, that the plan needs modification. SECTION 3 – STRATEGIES TO ACHIEVE CONSERVATION GOALS WATER RATE STRUCTURE The City utilizes an inclining water rate structure to encourage customers to reduce both peak and overall water usage, while fairly allocating cost of service to each customer class. Under an inclining rate structure, the rate per thousand gallons increases as the amount of water used increases. The City implemented this inclining water rate structure in Fiscal Year 2008. The current rate structure charges monthly service charges based on meter size, plus a uniform rate per thousand (1000) gallons up to 10,000 gallons. After 10,000 gallons, the rate per thousand increases $0.60 per thousand gallons per 5000 gallon block up to 26,000 gallons. All residential usage above 26,000 gallons is billed at a uniform rate of $4.86 per thousand (1000) gallons(City Ordinance No. 3116). Currently, commercial rate structure charges monthly service charges based on meter size, plus a uniform water usage rate per thousand (1000) gallons. City Staff is currently researching the option of altering the commercial rate structure in order to meet conservation goals. This rate structure will be reviewed on a regular basis to ensure that the rates adequately recover the cost of service and meet the goals of this water conservation plan. WASTEWATER REUSE The City has received authorization from the TCEQ to reuse its treated wastewater effluent as Type I reuse water, the highest quality of reuse water. The goal for the City’s water reuse program is to reduce peak demand on the potable (drinking) water system by switching non-potable uses of water, such as athletic field irrigation, to reuse water. In 2006 the City has completed a feasibility study of providing reuse water for irrigation at City-owned parks and facilities. The first part of this plan will include extending reclaimed water infrastructure to the City’s two main parks: Veterans Park and Athletic Complex, and Central Park. The City hopes to complete the first phase of its water reuse program by 2011. When this system is fully implemented, it will provide nearly 1 million gallons per day of reclaimed water to the parks, reducing demand on the potable water system. In the future, the City plans to expand its water reuse program to include large volume commercial customers, such as shopping centers and business parks. WATER LOSS CONTROL MEASURES The goal of the City’s water loss control program is to maintain unaccounted-for water (unbilled authorized and unbilled unauthorized usage) water at or below 10% of water produced, on a monthly basis. In order to meet this goal, the City has several programs in place, including routine water audits, a program of leak detection and repair, and meter testing and accuracy. Routine Audits of Water System The Water Services Department generates a monthly water loss report that compares metered production with metered consumption, as well as accounted-for and unaccounted-for water losses. 107 CITY OF COLLEGE STATION 2009 W ATER CONSERVATION PLAN COLLEGE STATION UTILITIES Page 4 of 6 W ATER SERVICES DEPARTMENT This report provides an effective tracking system of water loss. The City will also complete a detailed water system audit following Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) guidelines at least once each year. TWDB rules only require this audit to be submitted once every five years. The water system audit determines the volume of actual water loss, the identification of water loss sources, the status and condition of primary water meters, an analysis of water line breaks, an evaluation of underground leakage potential, and provides recommendations for meter replacement Leak Detection and Repair The City administers a leak detection and repair program for its water distribution system. This program features a work order prioritization system for leaks needing repair and an inventory of equipment and materials needed to promptly repair all detected or reported leaks. The City’s annual rehabilitation program to upgrade its water distribution system also addresses high volume leaks. The City also conducts an annual distribution system rehabilitation program that replaces the high water loss sections of the distribution system. This program is based on findings of monthly water loss reports and the leak detection program. Universal Metering The ability to meter all water distribution and consumption uses allows the City to closely monitor actual water use, water losses, and prevent unauthorized use. All service connections in the City are metered. All production wells, pumping stations, interconnections, irrigation, swimming pools, parks, and municipal structures operated by the City are metered. Meters at water production pump stations are calibrated and tested annually in accordance with American Water Works Association (AWWA) standards to provide a minimum accuracy of plus or minus five percent (5%). The City will continue to provide a preventive maintenance program for its water meters, wherein regular scheduled testing, repairs, and replacement are performed in accordance with American Water Works Association (AWWA) standards. RECORDS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM The City administers a comprehensive record management system that accounts for water use characteristics throughout the water system and allows for the separation of aggregate water sales and water usage characteristics into customer-specific categories. The system is configured to provide the following water use information: · Water production · Water sales · Water consumption · Water losses PUBLIC EDUCATION PROGRAM The City’s public education program typically makes at least 6,000 direct customer contacts each year through presentations, booths at community fairs, and plant tours. This figure does not include indirect contacts through utility bill inserts, newspaper and radio ads, and similar programs. The City promotes water conservation issues by informing the public in the following ways: · Making water conservation information available to new customers · Making residential water audits available to all customers · Providing water conservation information to all customers upon request 108 CITY OF COLLEGE STATION 2009 W ATER CONSERVATION PLAN COLLEGE STATION UTILITIES Page 5 of 6 W ATER SERVICES DEPARTMENT · Coordinating educational presentations, lectures, and demonstrations for schools, civic groups, and the general public · Providing exhibits at public events held throughout the year · Publishing water conservation information on a regular basis in the City’s utility bill insert or other written form · Providing book covers with a water conservation message for College Station ISD students · Participating in community environmental education activities with the City of Bryan and other local organizations to promote water conservation education · Supporting annual events and demonstrations relating to water conservation and environmental issues that affect water supply and quality WHOLESALE WATER SUPPLY CONTRACTS The City will, as part of contracts for sale of water to any other entity re-selling water, require that entity to adopt applicable provisions of the City's water conservation and drought contingency plan or have a plan in effect previously adopted and meeting the basic requirements of 30 TAC §288. These provisions will be through contractual agreement prior to the sale of any water to the water re-seller. PLUMBING CODE AND RETROFIT PROGRAM The City has adopted the International Plumbing Code, which requires the use of water saving, Ultra Low Flow (ULF) fixtures to be installed in new construction and in the replacement of plumbing in existing structures. The City educates the residents, plumbers, and contractors on the benefits of retrofitting existing facilities with water saving devices through its public education program. In addition, the City is evaluating the feasibility and cost effectiveness of implementing an Ultra-Low Flow (ULF) rebate program or similar incentive program that would offer cash rebates or other incentives to water customers that replace old toilets, showerheads, and other fixtures with new ULF models. The City is hopeful to have rebate programs enacted FY 09-10. LANDSCAPE WATER MANAGEMENT The City provides information about the methods and benefits of water conserving landscaping practices and devices, through public education to homeowners, business owners, landscape architects and designers, and irrigation professionals. The following methods are encouraged: · The use of Xeriscape TM and “Water Wise” landscaping techniques, including drought tolerant plants and grasses for landscaping new homes and commercial areas. · The use of drip irrigation systems when possible or other water conserving irrigation systems that utilize efficient sprinklers and considerations given to prevailing winds. Additional point credits are given to commercial landscapes that employ water-efficient irrigation systems. · Making sure that ornamental fountains and similar water features are designed to recycle water and use minimal amounts of water. · Working with area landscape supply businesses and nurseries to encourage them to sell locally adapted, drought tolerant plants and grasses along with efficient irrigation systems, and to promote use of these materials through demonstrations and advertisements. 109 CITY OF COLLEGE STATION 2009 W ATER CONSERVATION PLAN COLLEGE STATION UTILITIES Page 6 of 6 W ATER SERVICES DEPARTMENT · The City is now offering landscape irrigation audits which include a system checkup, an efficiency check, and a general irrigation schedule. PERFORMANCE MEASURES AND REPORTING The City will compile an annual report on the Water Conservation Plan, to include the following: · Summary of public information issued in the previous year · Report on meter testing program · Summary of water loss control program · Effectiveness of Water Conservation Plan in reducing peak and overall water consumption · Per capita water consumption for the previous calendar year. · Implementation progress and status of plan. COORDINATION Recognizing that each City has similar water systems and customer bases, and similar needs for water conservation, the City of College Station and the City of Bryan worked together in developing similar water conservation plans. Coordination with Drought Contingency and Water Emergency Plan: The Water Conservation Plan shall work in accordance with the related City of College Station Ordinance, Drought Contingency and Water Emergency Plan, first adopted in January 2000 and as it may be revised from time to time. Coordination with Regional Water Planning Group: The City of College Station will provide this Water Conservation Plan to the Brazos Region (Region G) Water Planning Group, as designated by the TWDB.

Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the resolution. Summary: This credit purchase is necessary to meet federal agency mitigation requirements for wetlands at the new landfill site on State Highway 30. The total purchase price for the credits is $201,250.00, including a $20,125.00 deposit payment. The Twin Oaks Landfill site is under construction south of SH 30 and Alum Creek in Grimes County, Texas. Because this site contains wetlands that will be disturbed during construction, BVSWMA is required by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to obtain approval of a compensatory mitigation plan under a Clean Water Act, Section 404 Individual Permit. On January 27, 2009, the Bryan City Council considered and denied a proposal to purchase a wetlands mitigation tract as outlined in the original 404 permitted mitigation plan. The action has resulted in the formulation of a contingency plan that will meet 404 permit requirements through credit purchase. The contingency plan consists of the acquisition 11.5 Wetland Mitigation Credits to offset the disturbed areas that will be affected during current construction, and subsequent construction of disposal cells 2A, 2B, and 3A or approximately the next ten years of operations at the facility. Staff will then proceed with efforts to mitigate the rest of the disturbed areas through additional credit purchases, if credits are available. The BVSWMA Policy Advisory Board was briefed on the credit purchase and contingency plan on April 13, 2009. The 11.5 Wetlands Mitigation Credits will be purchased from the XTO Steele Creek Mitigation Bank, located in Robertson County, through Mitigation Solutions USA LLC. A non-refundable deposit of $20,125.00, due April 17, 2008, was paid on April 9, 2009. The remaining balance of $181,125.00 will be paid upon approval of this expenditure authorization. Budget & Financial Summary: Funding for this credit purchase is available in the BVSWMA Capital Improvements Fund. As BVSWMA is funded through an inter-local agreement, both the Cities of Bryan and College Station are sharing the cost of this project. This item will also require the approval of the Bryan City Council. Attachments: 1. Resolution 2. Mitigation Solutions USA LLC Cover Letter – April 08, 2009 3.

Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the resolution declaring intention to reimburse certain expenditures with proceeds from debt. Summary: The Neighborhood Park Improvements project was approved as part of the FY08 General Obligation Bond authorization. The budget for these improvements is a total of $900,000 and funds are anticipated to be spent through FY11. Two projects are anticipated to be completed in FY09 for a total of $290,000. The first project is the installation of shade covers at three neighborhood parks. These parks are Edelweiss Park, Brothers Pond Park, and Castlegate Park. The contract for the shade cover project was less than $50,000 and has been approved by the City Manager. The second project will be the installation of a basketball pavilion at Pebble Creek Park. If funds remain following the completion of these projects, they will be used on other neighborhood park improvements. Long term debt authorized in the November 2008 bond authorization will be issued for these projects. On projects for which the expenditures will occur prior to the debt issue, a resolution declaring intention to reimburse certain expenditures with proceeds from debt must be adopted within 60 days of expenditure on the project. Budget & Financial Summary: The “Resolution Declaring Intention to Reimburse Certain Expenditures with Proceeds from Debt” is necessary for this item because the long term debt has not been issued for the project. This debt is scheduled to be issued later this fiscal year. Attachments: 1.

Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the resolution declaring intention to reimburse certain expenditures with proceeds from debt. Summary: A professional services contract for the design of the Water Reclamation Project to Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $431,000.00 was approved by the City Council on March 26, 2009. The water reclamation project will take reclaimed water from the Carter’s Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant and use it for irrigation purposes at Veteran’s Park. Long term debt will be issued for this project. On projects for which the expenditures will occur prior to the debt issue, a resolution declaring intention to reimburse certain expenditures with proceeds from debt must be adopted within 60 days of expenditure on the project. The resolution is typically adopted at the time the contract is awarded, but was inadvertently left off of the agenda when the contract was brought to Council. Budget & Financial Summary: The “Resolution Declaring Intention to Reimburse Certain Expenditures with Proceeds from Debt” is necessary for this item because a portion of the long term debt has not been issued for the project. This debt is scheduled to be issued later this fiscal year and in future fiscal years. The current budget for this project is $3,606,730.00. Attachments: 1.

Recommendation(s): Staff recommends the City Council approves the funding agreement amendment requested by the Arts Council of Brazos Valley. Summary: The request for an amendment to the Arts Council Affiliate funding agreement was made by the Arts Council of Brazos Valley. Included in the Affiliate funding agreement between the City of College Station and the Arts Council of Brazos Valley (ACBV) is $11,000 in Hotel Tax funding for a performance by the Brazos Valley Symphony Orchestra (BVSO) at Wolf Pen Creek Amphitheatre in Spring 2009 as part of the Starlight Music Series. The ACBV, on behalf of the BVSO, has requested in writing that these funds be reallocated to help the BVSO underwrite their July 4th concert at the George Bush Presidential Library and Museum and cancel the Wolf Pen Creek performance. The BVSO performance tends to be one of the lower attended concerts as part of the Starlight Music Series. The City currently has a funding agreement with the Noon Lions Club to fund the fireworks portion of the July 4th celebration at the George Bush Presidential Library and Museum. The ACBV and BVSO believe that this reallocation of funds will enhance the July 4th performance by the BVSO and help ensure the BVSO’s financial stability in the current economic climate. In order to reallocate the funds for the July 4th BVSO performance, the current funding Agreement must be amended to change the performance location and date specified in Section 3.5. Budget & Financial Summary: This item will not have a budget impact. The $11,000 in Hotel Tax funding for a BVSO performance is included in the FY 2009 Budget. This item will amend the current funding agreement to change the date and location of the BVSO performance the funding will be provided for. Attachments: 1.

Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the ILA providing for College Station to share the cost of the signal design. Summary: The ILA provides for the two cities to equally share in the cost of the design of a new traffic signal to be installed at the intersection of University Drive and Copperfield Drive. The City of Bryan will hire an engineering firm to do the design and College Station will pay one-half of the fees for this design. The signal improvements as well as required widening to provide left turn lanes will be made by TxDOT. The City of Bryan will pay TxDOT for the signal construction as well as pavement work on the Bryan leg of Copperfield Drive. College Station will pay for one-half of the signal construction through a future ILA. Budget & Financial Summary: Funds for the design and construction of this signal are budgeted and available in the Street CIP Fund. Funds for this project are from the 2003 GO Bond issue.

WHEREAS, Chapter 791 of the TEXAS GOVERNMENT CODE, also known as the INTERLOCAL COOPERATION ACT, authorizes all local governments to contract with each other to perform functions or services that each party to the contract is authorized to perform individually; and WHEREAS, the parties are seeking to enhance safety and improve the traffic flow through the intersection of FM 60 (University Drive) and Copperfield Drive along the city limits of the Cities of Bryan and College Station; and WHEREAS, the parties desire to provide interim improvements to the intersection in advance of a future widening of FM 60 to include pavement widening on the southeast side of FM 60, traffic signals on all approaches, drainage structure relocation, and signing and pavement marking improvements ; and WHEREAS, the parties agree to equally share in the costs not provided by TxDOT for the said improvements at the intersection of FM 60 and Copperfield Drive. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties herein enter into this Agreement to outline the joint participation of BRYAN and COLLEGE STATION in the Project: 1. BRYAN AND COLLEGE STATION agree to: (a) BRYAN will contract with Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. to provide the following services; The scope of work will include review of existing plans, studies, and electronic files, and field review of the site; preliminary engineering analysis of the intersection and approaches; and development of the intersection and traffic signal schematic layout. The scope will also include development of complete widening and intersection improvements design plans, specifications, and estimates; and bidding document development. The work will be completed within the existing right of way and no right of way or easements will be developed. Furthermore, the work will be based on topographic surveys and other electronic files developed and provided by TxDOT, so additional field surveys will not be included in this project. 147 Page 2 The design plans will incorporate design requirements according to the October 2006 Texas Department of Transportation Roadway Design Manual or more updated version, if adopted prior to the end of Preliminary Engineering of this project. The plans will be presented at the end of the 90% Final Engineering phase for review by TxDOT and both cities. The scope also includes bidding documents. As existing drainage culverts are proposed to be relocated and re-used with new safety end treatments added, no hydraulic analysis will be prepared or submitted. (b) COLLEGE STATION will reimburse BRYAN for one-half of the actual total costs of the project design, not to exceed Thirty-one thousand two hundred forty eight dollars ($31,248.00) as the work progresses within thirty (30) days of invoice. 4.

(Project #ST 0913) Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval of the resolution. Summary: Staff and TxDOT made a presentation to Council on February 12th where a planned grade separation at the intersection of Wellborn and FM 2818 was described. During that presentation it was pointed out that the intersection of Jones Butler and FM 2818 would be blocked by this construction project. Staff has been working with the developer of the nearby Capstone development to extend Holleman Drive so that there is a connection to Jones Butler providing access to FM 2818 at the signalized intersection with Holleman. The contract under consideration hires Mitchell and Morgan, the developer’s engineer, to design the extension across City owned property adjacent to the Capstone development. With the approval of this contract design can begin immediately and be complete in mid- June. Construction of the extension will be done by the Capstone developer with City participation and is projected to be complete in December 2009. Budget & Financial Summary: Funding for the design in the amount of $59,500 and the development participation in construction estimated at $940,000 is in oversize participation funds from the 2003 GO Bond issue.

Summary: At the City of College Station’s request the Texas Department of Transportation conducted a speed study on SH 40 to determine the appropriate speed limit along the roadway. The speed study was completed in February of this year and resulted in reducing the section with a speed limit of 70 mph to 60 mph. The existing 50 mph speed zone will remain as it is currently posted. Budget & Financial Summary: TxDOT is responsible for the installation and maintenance of speed limit signs along state roadways, so there will be no expenses to the city resulting from the passage of this ordinance.

Fitch185 April 23, 2009 Regular Agenda Item No. 1 Tauber and Stasney Streets Rehabilitation Project To: Glenn Brown, City Manager From: Chuck Gilman, Director of Capital Projects Agenda Caption: Public Hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion of design options for the Tauber & Stasney Street Rehabilitation Project. Recommendation(s): Staff is recommending that the Tauber and Stasney Street Rehabilitation Project proceed according to Option 3. Summary: On April 9, 2009 the City Council requested that staff conduct a public hearing on this item in an effort to gain a better understanding of the positive and negative impacts of this project. Section 5.6.B.5.a (page 5-16) of the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) states "Existing head-in parking that requires backing maneuvers into a right-of-way shall be removed with all proposed development, redevelopment, rehabilitation, and façade projects within any Northgate district". The term rehabilitation is defined in the Ordinance, but it does not clearly identify whether City funded capital projects, initiated to improve safety and the reliability of city services, and are considered a rehabilitation project. The Northgate Parking Plan, adopted by Council in March 2000, and referenced in the UDO, requires the removal of all on-street parking in residential areas in Northgate, which is the section of Northgate zoned NG-3. The segments along Tauber and Stasney between Cross and Cherry Street are zoned NG-3. On December 11, 2008 staff came before Council seeking direction on the Tauber and Stasney Street Rehabilitation Project in regards to the question of whether or not this, and other City initiated rehabilitation project, should require the removal of existing parking. Council indicated that the UDO should apply to City funded capital projects. Staff then requested 90 days to engage landowners in Northgate who may be impacted by the project, to discuss the potential impacts and benefits of the project, and to gather their input. After meeting with all the property owners or the designated representative(s) of the owner, staff has developed several design alternatives to accomplish the goals of the project, and attempt to meet the needs of the property owners, to the extent possible. A brief summary of the alternatives is listed below. Option 1: Remove all the on-street parking, provide 8-feet wide sidewalks with street trees, new concrete pavement (width will vary since ROW width varies), replace/rehabilitate the utilities and allow for two-way traffic. Option does not require an amendment to the UDO. This option will require a small amount of additional ROW and/or an access easement along Tauber near Cherry Street. This option will result in the loss of approximately 202 parking spaces along Tauber and Stasney. Option 2: Mill the old pavement and overlay with a new asphalt surface. Replace/rehabilitate the utilities. Address the pavement grade issues along Tauber 186 between Cross and Cherry. Do not construct new sidewalks or install street trees. All head-in parking and parallel parking will remain. Maintain two-way traffic along Tauber and Stasney. This option will require a clarification to the definition of a rehabilitation project in the UDO. Option does not require additional ROW, and will not result in the loss of any parking spaces along Tauber or Stasney. Option 3: Remove head-in parking along Tauber and Stasney, replace/keep parallel parking where possible along Tauber and Stasney as permitted by the UDO. Amend the Northgate Parking Plan to allow for on-street parking in NG-3 along one side of Tauber and one side of Stasney, provide 8-feet wide sidewalks with street trees, new concrete pavement, replace/rehabilitate the utilities and allow for two-way traffic. Maintain two-way traffic along Tauber and Stasney. This option does not require an amendment to the UDO. This option will require a small amount of additional ROW and/or an access easement along Tauber near Cherry Street. This option will result in the loss of approximately 137 parking spaces along Tauber and Stasney. Staff has created these alternatives to help the Council visualize the potential negative and positive impact of considering City funded capital projects, initiated to improve safety and the reliability of city services, as a rehabilitation project as defined in the UDO. Budget & Financial Summary: The current project budget for the Tauber and Stasney Street Rehabilitation Project is $3,058,128. Funds in the amount of $572,840.70 have been expended or committed to date, leaving a balance of $2,485,287.30 in the project budget. Attachments: 1.

Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission heard this item at their April 16, 2009 meeting. The P&Z Commission unanimously recommended approval. Staff recommended approval. Summary: Staff is aware that there are numerous un-permitted signs being posted to advertise real estate events such as open houses, the Parade of Homes tour, and recreational home tours within the City. This item is an amendment to several sections of the Unified Development Ordinance to provide a legal process for these types of signs. In addition, staff is proposing language to allow attached signage for government facilities in certain locations. The proposed changes include the following: § Section 7.4.E Exempt Signs, is proposed to be amended to provide a regulatory process for real-estate event signs. The amendment includes language relating time limitations, sign removal, signage in the right-of-way, and permitting. § Section 7.4.X Signs for Permitted Non-residential Uses in Residential or Agricultural Districts, currently allows for the use of low profile signs. However, staff is proposing that government facilities in such zoning districts be allowed to utilize attached signage as well. § Section 11.2 Defined Terms, is proposed to be amended to include a definition for “Home Tour Events.” Budget & Financial Summary: N/A Attachments: 1. Ordinance 189 190 191 192 193 194 April 23, 2009 Regular Agenda Item No. 3 4074 State Highway 6 SecurCare Storage- Rezoning To: Glenn Brown, City Manager From: Bob Cowell, AICP, Director of Planning & Development Services Agenda Caption: Public hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding an amendment of Chapter 12, Unified Development Ordinance, Section 4.2, Official Zoning Map, of the Code of Ordinances of the City of College Station, Texas by rezoning 2.47 acres from A-O, Agricultural-Open, to C-1, General Commercial at 4074 State Highway 6 and more generally located south of Bridle Gate Drive. Recommendation(s): The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the amendment by a vote of 7 to 0 at their April 2nd, meeting. The recommendation included the condition that the screening requirements of Section 7.6.F.3 and 7.6.F.4 of the Unified Development Ordinance on the south side of the property are met. Staff also recommended approval. Summary: REVIEW CRITERIA 1. Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan: The Comprehensive Land Use Plan was recently amended in February 2009 to change approximately 5.79 acres from Single Family Residential Medium Density to Retail Regional. This Comprehensive Plan Amendment included the adjacent 3.32 acres that is part of the Securecare Self Storage facility and that is currently zoned C-1, General Commercial. A C-1, General Commercial zoning district is considered appropriate for the subject property with the land use designation change to Retail Regional. 2. Compatibility with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and with the character of the neighborhood: The proposed rezoning is compatible with the adjacent C-1, General Commercial and A-P, Administrative Professional zoning districts. This zoning would serve to legitimize the existing use of a self-storage facility. The property to the north is currently developed as single-family residences with two separate zoning districts: R-1, Single-Family Residential and R-6, High Density Multi- Family. Since single-family homes are not a permitted use in an R-6 zoning district, the homes are not a conforming use. C-1, General Commercial uses are generally compatible with the uses permitted in a high-density multi-family zoning district. The area can be generally characterized as having commercial uses along the State Highway 6 frontage road with a residential subdivision (Bridlegate) located adjacent to and behind the commercial uses. The proposed rezoning would be a continuation of the existing commercial use to the east. 3. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the district that would be made applicable by the proposed amendment: On February 12th, 2009 City Council approved a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to change the Land Use from Single Family Residential, Medium Density to Retail Regional. As such 195 a C-1, General Commercial zoning district is considered to be suitable for the subject property. Additionally, the property is currently being utilized as self storage facility, which is considered appropriate for a C-1, General Commercial zoning district. 4. Suitability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The subject property’s current zoning district limits the potential for development to agricultural, low-intensity residential, or open space uses due to the property being zoned A-O, Agricultural Open. The subject property to be rezoned is part of a larger adjacent development to the east that is currently zoned C-1, General Commercial. Commercial land uses are generally dependent on good access to freeways and major arterials. Access to the subject property is off the State Highway 6 frontage road. 5. Marketability of the property affected by the amendment for uses permitted by the district applicable to the property at the time of the proposed amendment: The applicant is seeking to enhance the marketability of the property through the proposed zone change. The applicant intends to make paving improvements to the existing property. 6. Availability of water, wastewater, stormwater, and transportation facilities generally suitable and adequate for the proposed use: There are existing 6-inch and 24-inch water lines available to serve this property. A sanitary sewer main will need to be extended in order to provide service to the property. Drainage is mainly to the southeast within the Lick Creek basin. All utilities shall be designed in accordance with the BCS Unified Design Guidelines at the time of Platting and Site Development. Access to the property is available from the State Highway 6 South Frontage Rd. Budget & Financial Summary: N/A Attachments: 1. Background Information 2. Aerial 3.

EXHIBIT "C" Page 4 204 April 23, 2009 Regular Agenda Item No. 4 Update of Steeplechase-Wellborn Sewer Impact Fee Area 03-02 To: Glenn Brown, City Manager From: Mark Smith, Director of Public Works Agenda Caption: Public hearing, presentation, possible action, and discussion on consideration of the updated land use assumptions and capital improvements plan, and the imposition of updated water and wastewater impact fees in Steeplechase-Wellborn Sewer Impact Fee Service Areas 03-02. Recommendation(s): Staff recommends approval. Summary: At the March 12, 2009 Council Meeting, the City Council approved a resolution to set a public hearing for this meeting to evaluate impact fees and a proposal to amend the associated land use assumptions and capital improvements plan as required by state law every 5 years. If approved, an item to amend Chapter 15, “Impact Fees,” will be placed on the May 14, 2009 Council Meeting. The affected impact fee is Steeplechase-Wellborn Sewer Impact Fee Service Areas 03-02. The “Steeplechase Wastewater Impact Fees” Report was prepared by our consultant Rimrock Consulting Company. This report contains the technical data which is the basis for the 2008-2018 fee calculation: land use and planning data, unit usage statistics and capital improvements plan. Actual fee calculation is shown in Section 3.0 of the report, specifically note Tables 3-2. Current fees and proposed maximum fee calculated in the subject report are provided below. 03-02 Steeplechase Wastewater Current Fee* $300.00 Proposed Fee* $357.74 * per Living Unit Equivalent (LUE) A summary of the Wastewater Impact Fees Report is provided in the referenced 5-Year Update Report. Note the above “Proposed Fees” are the maximum fee allowed based on the updated analysis, however Council may chose to enact a fee less than the maximum. Also note that the Planning and Zoning Commission serves as the Impact Fee Advisory Committee as defined by ordinance. As attested to by the Chairman of the planning and Zoning Commission on the attached 5-year Update Report, on February 5, 2009 the Advisory Committee unanimously recommended the report be forwarded to City Council and supported the information in the report to update the impact fees. Budget & Financial Summary: This update report justifies the maximum impact fee for Service Area 03-02 to be increased to $357.74/LUE from the current fee of $300.00/LUE. By state law the fees cannot be greater than the proposed fee. The future revenue possible to be recovered if the maximum fee is adopted is $942,644.90, assuming 2,838 LUEs at full build-out less the 203 LUEs existing. This would increase the recovery $152,144.90 from the current fee. To date only $7,216.03 has been collected. Attachments: 1.
