Carls, City Attorney; and Paul Brandenburg, City Manager Brandenburg discussed the item and read the caption only on first reading after having met the requirements of the City Charter. Mayor briefly discussed the workshop, and introduced speakers Donald Lelong asked the council to defer the vote to implement Proposition 13 or its substitute until it craft a mechanism that can meet the goals of these measures without wasting a lot of taxpayer money. Charles "Noss" Burson spoke in opposition of Proposition 13. He said that Seniors need to help the younger citizens of Georgetown because they are our future. He is also concerned about passing something you can't change. He said that he would like to see an election held to decide this issue.

He reminded Council that there was a prior vote on this issue. He discussed the modeling and assumptions and how they can be changed. He said that thinks that Prop 13 will eventually pass, but that we need an impact of the freeze on the City. He said that the City's policy should continue to be a flat tax rate and that Property Taxes only fund 1/4 of the City's General Fund Budget. He said that we need to look at other sources of revenue and that the future requires we hold tax rate flat and ensure it by successful economic development. Walt Herbert told council that this "tax cut" is in fact a "tax increase" for the majority of our citizens. Ralph Reasor - deferred time to Jack Stroubandt Jack Stroubandt told council that he represents the disabled and over 65 age. He said that he thought that the City Finance Director's comments in the paper divided the community.

He told the Council that staffs analysis is flawed and requested that Council conduct an Independent Study to review this issue. He said that he does not believe that City Staff should take the lead on this analysis. Adrienne Padfield told council that she thought that the vote on January 13 on Proposition 13 was approved. She discussed the character of councilmembers who change their minds on their vote. She posed the question as to why someone would take the School Tax Freeze and not the City. Don Padfield discussed the comparison of the exemption and tax freeze used in the model. He said that Proposition 13 is about providing relief. Alexia Griffin - yielding time to Betty Jukes Betty Jukes addressed the council and told them that Georgetown was a very vibrant community. She said that she is finding a very negative attitude in the young people in Georgetown. She doesn't like to the City divided over an issue by pitting the young over the old. She supports Proposition 13. She doesn't know if the figures shown at the workshop were correct. She also City Council Meeting Minutes/February 10, 2004 Page 4 of 9 Pages discussed the support that Sun City provides the community in cultural activities, the hospital, etc. She asked He urged council what would an election Georgetown on do without He also the tax base of tax exemption.

Joanne Ford told the Council we need to educate the whole community about this issue. She said that if we approve Proposition 13 it is forever and can't be changed. She said that she supports the exemption issue. She said that we need to unite our community and not divide. Judy Shepherd told council that there was a balance here that allowed our kids to come back and work here. She wants to live in a community where that balance still exists. She told council about two people who rely on their councilmembers to look after their needs. She told council that she wants Georgetown to be a balanced community and wants to pay her fair share. Steven Shepherd told council that Georgetown is a great place to live and raise a family. He said that he has seen a lot of change since he grew up here. He said that he doesn't like to see the wedge in the community. He said that he would like to see an exemption because is helps those who really need it. He also said that a tax freeze can never be changed. There was council discussion regarding the current taxing system, as compared to the numbers discussed in the model. The Council also discussed the possibility of utilizing the services of an outside firm do an analysis using the entire budget and showing the City a best and worst case scenario. The State Comptroller's office was suggested as a possible option. Motion by Noble, second by Snell to approve Proposition 13 and authorize the Mayor to write a letter to the State Comptroller to seek an audit of this process or find an outside firm to work with the Council or a committee of the Council. Sansing told the Council that he supports staff and believes that we are fortunate to have people who are outstanding in their field. He said that he didn't feel like Proposition 13 would work and thinks that the exemption option is a much better option. He also said that he would support an independent study without cost to the city. He also said that a number of his constituents have indicated to him that they would like the opportunity to vote on this issue. Smith said he was opposed to Proposition 13 from the beginning. He said that not only will younger citizens' taxes go up, but business taxes will go up as well. He said that he thinks it will be much harder to recruit new business if Proposition 13 passes. He feels like it will have a negative impact on economic development. He said that he thinks that the exemption option will help those who really need the help. Kirby said that he has been against Proposition from the beginning. He said that it will have a continuing multiplier effect over time. He has also spent time looking at the model with a lot of different assumptions. He said that the results of the model need to be made available so that the public can be educated. He also said that he would support it if the State Comptroller would do an analysis, but that we need to publicize the effect of this issue. Motion by Kirby, second by Sansing to defer to get publicity to study this issue and get the State Comptroller to do an analysis. Smith told that Council that he thinks that Council fully understands, but that community does not. He said that if Proposition 13 fails, then we will probably get a petition, but he thinks that between now and the time of an election that the community, including the business community, will have time to study this issue. Sansing - withdraws second. Kirby indicated again that he does not want this issue passed tonight. City Council Meeting Minutes/February 10, 2004 Page 5 of 9 Pages Ramsey - This is a complex issue and that you can see pros and cons to both sides. He supports senior citizens and hates taxes, but they are a way of life. He said that he would like to see the public vote on this issue. Motion to defer dies for lack of a second. Noble withdraws original motion and Snell withdraws second to make two motions to separate the issues. Motion by Noble, second by Snell to approve proposition 13. Snell discussed a number community issues as they relate to both the tax freeze and the exemption option. He indicated that he thought that Proposition 13 is not a good piece of work for what it attempts to do, but that he thinks that it does more good than harm. He told Council that in Ashford, North Carolina there are no exemptions for anyone unless you are over 65 and have an income that is less than $18,000. He said that in Texas we cannot attach our exemption structure to income and that in Texas we have a lot of tax exemptions those over 65 are already having their fair share paid by someone else. He went on to discuss fairness of these options and his analysis of both options. He concluded that we would have to have a $60,000 exemption in order to come close to what Proposition 13 is trying to do. He discussed how the options would work and how they would benefit both those who take advantage of the exemption as well as the City. He also said that he still thinks that more good is coming out of the freeze. He said that psychologically Proposition 13 gives people more assurance that things will not change because it is locked in. He went on to tell the Council that he supports Proposition 13. There was brief Council discussion regarding what would happen to the exemption if it was passed and then the freeze later was enacted. The Mayor discussed the process by which the Council can take formal action on issues and explained to the public that a formal action can only be taken by "Ordinance." He also explained why the Council could not just "call an election" and discussed the procedure set forth by the Texas Legislature in Proposition 13 to "call an election" if a governing body did not enact it. He also told the public that the current Council could not bind future Councils, which was a concern to some councilmembers because Proposition 13 is permanent and could not be repealed in the future. He went on to say that issue is very important not only to Georgetown, but also to every City, County and Junior College Taxing District in the State of Texas. He agrees that it is important for the State Comptroller to get involved and review these issues because of the statewide impacts. Motion by Noble, second by Snell to approve Proposition 13. Motion fails. 2-5 (Eason, Sansing, Smith, Kirby, Ramsey opposed) Motion by Noble, second by Smith to request that the mayor contact the State Comptroller, Carol Keeton Strayhorn, by letter and by telephone call to request that the Comptroller move this issue up the priority list and conduct an independent financial analysis of this issue.

Smith reiterated that he thought the implications of these issues are significant. Kirby told Council that the City's cost remains the same whether it serves a senior population or a younger population and he doesn't want to see the tax burden shift, but he indicated that he would vote for the exemption because he thinks it is a better option.
