He listed phone numbers for the Caring Place, and the Williamson County and Cities Health District, and gave the address for the City of Georgetown Web Site.

H Public Wishing to Address Council - Royce Robinson regarding proposed annexation of his property. Robinson told Council he is concerned about annexation of his five acres. He said he purchased the property in 2002, after looking to move outside the city limits because he stores equipment on his property that he felt would offend his neighbors. He said he receives no services from the City. He said he is currently building a house for his 85 -year old mother-in-law, and he checked with the City and found that he doesn't need a permit because he is currently not in the city limits, but if his property were annexed, he was told he would need a permit if he builds even a storage shed. He said he has a septic tank, and his street needs to be fixed. He said he lives on a fixed income and doesn't know how he will be able to afford the extra amount for city taxes.

Legislative Regular Agenda J Consideration and possible action to approve the minutes of the Council Workshop on Monday, August 22; the regular Council Meeting on Tuesday, August 23; the Public Hearing on Thursday, August 25; and the Special Meeting on Thursday, September 1, 2005 -- Sandra D.

Approved 7-0 O Consideration and possible action to approve a Resolution adopting the National Incident Management System (NIMS) as the standard for incident management -- Kevin Stofle, Assistant Police Chief and David Morgan, Police Chief (pulled by Kirby) Kirby said he pulled this item from the Consent Agenda in order to emphasize storm preparedness. He said he thinks it is time to implement a procedure for dealing with tornadoes. Brandenburg said a large part of emergency preparedness is education. He said a plan is definitely in place in the City and there will be more information published about it in the near future. Kevin Stofle said the City of Georgetown Emergency Management Plan has been approved by the State, and the City will submit in December an advanced plan for approval. He told about the drill that was conducted, including the City, County, and State. He said a Severe Weather Alert Program is held in April each year. He said there is a seven -siren outdoor warning system throughout the City with a weekly test every Wednesday at noon. He said he will do more communication with the public.

Kirby said he is concerned because the computers cost four times the cost of a regular computer. Schoenborn noted that these computers are built to withstand extreme temperatures and absorb constant shock, and he said the price is coming down as more are purchased. Approved 7-4. R Consideration and possible action on the study to realign, close, or relocate Maple Street through Southwestern University -- Paul Brandenburg, City Manager Brandenburg called on representatives from Southwestern to share their concerns. Southwestern University President Jake Schrum said moving Maple Street doesn't have anything to do with their Facilities Plan. He said they could put a residence hall on seven other different locations on the campus. With a slide presentation he told Council that the issue is the safety of citizens and students on the campus. He said 85% of the traffic on Maple Street has nothing to do with Southwestern. He said in spite of speed bumps and lowered speed limits, there is still speeding traffic on Maple Street. Brandenburg introduced Joe Savage of Wilbur Smith and Associates who explained the options regarding Maple Street. He said the options are to leave it as it is, relocate it to the western edge of the campus, or close it to through traffic. He said 3000 of the 4000 vehicles a day are going through the neighborhood and not stopping on the campus. He said if Maple Street is closed, the problem would move to another street. His suggestion was to relocate Maple Street further west next to the railroad right of way and extend Southwestern Blvd. He said this would discourage truck traffic and cause other traffic to slow down. He said there would be fewer pedestrians crossing Maple if it is relocated. Speaker, Kerry Kelly, said her home is located on Pine Street across the soccer field from a sorority house on campus. She said the activity that occurs near the fields mostly occurs on Saturday and Sunday or in the summer. She complained that the fields are not accessible to residents and said security guards stop members of her family if they are walking on campus. She said the speed bumps are not helping. She said she has lived there for many years and she thinks the issue is a parking problem and suggested that part of the green space be turned into a parking lot in order to keep the cars from parking on both sides of Maple Street within the campus. She asked that the street not be changed. Brandenburg and Miller explained the costs of approximately $850,000 to move the roadway. Nelon noted that Dr. Schrum suggested that Southwestern would partner with the City. Brandenburg said currently the City does not have anything budgeted for this road and this road doesn't qualify for GTEC funds. Carr asked if the utilities could be left in place rather than moved. Miller responded that the sewer could be left in place, and Briggs said the water lines could be left in place unless Southwestern wanted to construct a building over those existing lines. Snell asked why the City should put any money into this project. He said absent safety concerns, the traffic flow is being handled by that street. Oliver said he thinks safety is a concern. He said it is also a problem in so far as an integrated academic plan. He said if you look out 20 to 30 years, there is potential for development in that area and then there would be serious safety concerns. He said he thinks the City needs to pay attention to its share of responsibility. Smith said the City pays for roads for TASUS, Wolf Ranch, and other economic development projects in the City and Southwestern is a great economic development boon to the City. Oliver said relocating the road would add value to the campus, and on that basis, Southwestern should participate in the cost. Sansing agreed it should be a cost-sharing arrangement with Southwestern paying the largest share. He said he agrees there are safety issues because of the parking. He said he thinks moving it is better than closing it. He said he thinks Southwestern should pay 51% of the cost. Sansing asked if a motion could be made to direct staff to work out an arrangement with Southwestern to relocate Maple Street. Nelon asked if there were any more questions from the Council. Eason said she believes the realignment will not shift the burden to the neighborhoods and will assist Southwestern in getting more dorm space and thererfore, more students. There was further discussion. Brandenburg said there have been no tickets written on Maple Street, and if City Council Meeting Minutes/September 13, 2005 Page 4 of 9 Pages there is speeding there, the City can put police officers out there occasionally to try to deal with that. Nelon asked Schrum to indicate how soon Southwestern wants the City to deal with Maple Street. Schrum replied that Southwestern would appreciate knowing an exact timetable because the City is asking the university for a master plan to identify any future buildings to be constructed. Smith asked and Savage said enforcement for the speed issue is the least expensive solution and the next step would be to put in different speed humps for a quick short-term solution. Motion by Snell, second by Sansing to instruct staff to work with Southwestern on the basis of the map from the consultant to relocate the road and bring back to Council as soon as possible the beginnings of a financial arrangement and some sort of time schedule. Brandenburg was asked for a reasonable timeframe and he responded no later than 90 days. Oliver confirmed that this is an effort to move the road. Kirby suggested a friendly amendment to conduct interim enforcement during the 90 days. Snell agreed, Sansing said he thinks there are not enough police officers to handle the current traffic problems. Smith seconded the friendly amendment. Approved 7-0, Mayor Nelon recused himself from the next item and left the dais. Mayor Pro Tem Doug Smith conducted the item. S Consideration and possible action concerning a Resolution authorizing the Release of a Special Assessment Lien against property currently owned by Kenneth P. Olson and located at 211 W. 8th Street. -- Patricia E. Carls, Brown & Carls, LLP, City Attorney Carls explained the item, saying it is an old sidewalk improvement assessment lien that Mr. Olson said has been paid. The City's records indicate that it was paid, but cannot confirm payment. She said, In the spirit of full disclosure, she is asking the Council to approve the release. Motion by Kirby, second by Carr to approve the release. Approved 7-0. Mayor Nelon returned to the dais. T Consideration and possible action on funding allocations for contracted community/social services for the 2005/06 budet year -- Councilmembers Farley Snell, Patty Eason, and Gabe Sansing Snell read the list of the agencies and the recommended amounts as follows: Assistance League of Georgetown $ 2,500 Bluebonnet Trails Community MHMR Center --PRIDE Early Childhood Intervention 31000 Capital Area Rural Transportation Systems (CARTS) 8,000 Family Eldercare, Inc. 61500 Georgetown Community Clinic 64,000 Georgetown Community Service Center (The Caring Place) 45,000 Georgetown Community Service Center (The Caring Place/House Repair) 15,000 Georgetown Interfaith Caregivers 12,000 Georgetown Project 61500 Habitat for Humanity of Greater Georgetown, Tx 12,000 Literacy Council of Williamson County 33500 Stonehaven Senior Center 123000 Williamson County Crisis Center 24,000 Williamson --Burnet County Opportunities, Inc. 61000 Total $220,000 Motion by Snell, second by Sansing to approve the allocations as read. Smith asked Holly Doggett of the Caring Place to speak regarding the house repair item. He asked and Doggett responded that they could keep the costs for the Rebuild (House Repair) Program separate. U Consideration and possible action to authorize staff to negotiate a contract for professional services with Civic Design Associates for the Williams Drive Gateway Redevelopment Master Plan -- Tom Yantis, Assistant City Manager Yantis noted that three firms were interviewed and Civic Design Associates is the firm to be recommended City Council Meeting Minutes/September 13, 2005 Page 5 of 9 Pages by the Committee. Oliver asked and Yantis noted that the timeline will be a part of the contract negotiations. He said the finished product should be availabe within four to five months. He said Council will be asked to approve the amount of funds. Smith asked that the contractor be proactive and contact all of the affected property owners. Yantis said that would be up to the staff and staff will make every effort to contact all the property owners. Motion by Sansing, second by Smith that staff enter into negotiations with Civic Design Associates. Approved 7-0. V Consideration and possible action to amend the development agreement with San Gabriel River Place Partners to extend the construction commencement date by 90 days -- Tom Yantis, Assistant City Manager Yantis explained the item. He said they received HARC approval in March and they have six months to commence construction, but ran into a problem with TCEQ because of an abandonment of a portion of old right of way on First Street. Motion by Sansing, second by Kirby to approve the extension of time. Approved 7-0. W Consideration and possible action to adopt a resolution approving the 2005/06 Budget and related Property Tax Assessment for the Georgetown Village Public Improvement District #1-- Micki Rundell, Director of Finance and Administration Rundell explained the item. Motion by Sansing, second by Eason to approve. Approved 7-0. X Second Readings 1. Second Reading of an ordinance levying a tax rate for the City of Georgetown for the tax year 2005 -- Micki Rundell, Director of Finance and Administration Rundell explained the tax rate to be proposed is $0.34626 and read only the caption of ordinance on second reading. Motion by Kirby, second by Smith to approve. Motion by Snell, second by Eason to amend that the property tax be increased by the adoption of a tax rate of $0.35909, of which $0.21996 will be for Maintenance and Operations and $0.13913 for Interest and Sinking. Snell said he feels uneasy about using the lower rate because it postpones the hiring of some of the proposed needed employees until the very end of the fiscal year under an assured scenario. He said he thinks that will postpone the problem unless the sales tax comes through. He said he is uneasy increasing personnel according to sales tax performance. He said the following year there will be increased employees needed to staff the Library when it is opened and other new hires related to voter -approved bond issues, plus another increase in debt service. He said he thinks the lower tax rate will reduce the property tax income base and then next year the adjusted effective rate will be working off this lower number. He said if taxes need to be raised, the rate will come off of the lower based number, thus creating a "hole," saying the monies that would have come in this year would be lost forever and next year the City would be starting a year behind. He said he feels the City is in a "catch up" mode coming out of the "Scenario H" period, and he anticipates property tax increases for several years. He said he thinks the higher number is needed. Nelon said he thinks the lower amount should be kept. He said a good piece of what is left over at the end of the year has come "out of the pockets" of those positions that did not get filled in police and fire. He thinks staggering at 95% is a much more efficient way to put money in the pockets of police and fire. He said the City is going from 87% to 95% without burdening the future. He said he feels very strongly that $0.34626 is the way to go and mid -year adjustments can be made to increase the number to be hired when the sales tax comes in. Carr said he agrees with Nelon. Eason said she agrees with Snell and thinks the process is backwards. She said she believes there will be increased costs in the projects that are budgeted because of the ripple effect of Hurricane Katrina. Sansing said he also agrees with Snell. He said he feels the City is "behind the curve" in personnel and he would like to see more hiring of fire and police. There were further comments from the Council. Vote on the amendment: Denied 4-3 (Smith, Carr, Kirby and Oliver opposed) Vote on original motion: Ordinance 2005-44 Approved 5-2. (Snell and Eason opposed) 2.

Second Reading of an ordinance adopting an Annual Operating Plan Element of the Georgetown Century Plan (budget) for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2005, and ending September 30, 2006; adopting the Annual Amendment to the Century Plan -- Micki Rundell, Director of Finance and Administration With a slide presentation, Rundell explained the difference between the first and second readings of the ordinance to adopt a total budget amount of $131,834,735.00, saying the public safety hires can be as planned if revenue projections are ahead of target by a minimum of $183,000 at mid year; adjustments offset reductions in property tax revenue; Year 2 of the 3 -Year Plan will be implemented by year-end 05/06; and there will be funding of market adjustments at 95% of the City of Round Rock.
