I I I- I INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. IR 88-11 /~'-.,.. // Date: April 21, 1988 Subject: Suprene Court Ruling on State and IDeal Bonds The purpose of this report is to transmi t the recent ruling of the United States Supreme Court pertaining to federal incaœ tax for interest paid to individuals on State and Local Govermnent Bonds (see attached Wall Street Journal article). The high court ruled that interest paid to holders of State and Local Govermnent Bonds I1lëlY be taxable for federal incaœ tax purposes. That decision overturned a ruling of the Suprene Court that has stocx1 since 1895. The ruling _now gives Congress the authority to tax such incaœ in the future. Older issues of General Obligation and Revenue Bonds are not affected by this ruling. This may adversely affect the ability of local govermnents to issue new debt at canparable rates in today's market. Respectfully subni tted, -ß ~.~~-~ lee Maness Director of Finance IJ:I1/cs ;1 J ' ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICH lAND HillS, TEXAS 1 ~;\ III i -\ J ~í I:t : ~ I II ì 'à I -- ~ I~, \' Supreme Court Rules'Congress Is Free To Tax Interest o~ Stàte;Local ~onds . -'.~ ~ ~ By STEPHEN WERMIEL . Scalf R~portn of THE WALL STREET J~UftHAL WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court ruled that Congress Is free to tax Interest on state and local government bonds and upheld a 1982' federal law requiring states to keep records of who buys such bonds. The decision won't have any Immediate practical effect on the status of the bonds. It is unlikely that Congress wiH now rush to raise revenue by taxing municipal bond Interest. Moreover, states have been com· plying with the requirement to keep rec~ ords of bond owners since JUly 1983. , But yesterday's mUng created uncer· talnty and jitters In bond markets and among state and local government officials because it left no legal barrier against tax· Ing bond interest, were Congress to make that decision. And the ruling may also af· fect lawsuits challenging Congress's taxa· tion of some types of government bonds. The Senate's chief tax writer yesterday sought to reassure bondholders and state and local officials. "With regard to basic garden-variety state and local bonds, It's hard to imagine any Congress or admlnls· tration proposing to tax (that) Interest, It said Finance Committee Chairman Uoyd Bentsen (0., Texas). "Tax exemption on those bonds is extremely popular." . The hlgb court, In an opinion written bÝ Justice William Brennan, ruled 1·1 that an 1895 Supreme Court decision making state bond interest exempt from federal taxes is no longer valid and has brçn gradually overruled by a series of other ,high court decisions. ' Until yesterday, the precise status of the 1895 decision was unclear, and local government officials and bond experts were using it as a weapon to try to limit congressional attempts to tax bond inter- est. . In recent years, as pressures to find new sources òf federal revenue have muJti- . plied, Congress bas occasionally turned to municipal bonds. In 1982, as part of a ma- jor federal tax revision, Congress required that state. and local governments Issue their bonds In registered form. or lose their tax-exempt status. Registration requires a bond Issuer to keep a record of owners' names and ad· dresses; interest is mailed to them. This change was urged by the Reagan adminis- tration because the previous practice-of issuing bonds payable to the bearer. with interest coupons-led to widespread eva· sion of capital gains and estate taxes. This part of the 1982 law was challenged by South Carolina and by the National Governors' Association in a lawsuit flied directly in the Supreme Court in 1983. and it was that case that the Justices decided yesterday. Legal specialists say the ruling also will affect challenges to other efforts by Con· gress to tax some types of government bonds. Lawsuits hav~ been med challeng' ing provisions in the 1986 tax law making "private purpose" bonds subject to the fed- eral minimum tax on Individuals and cor- porations. Private purpose bonds are is- sued by local governments to fund indus- trial development. These lawsuits relied on the 1895 Su- preme Court decision and are now likely to be thrown out. according to Albert Lauber. a former Justice Department deputy solici- tor general who handled the case. "This is an important victory for the federal gov- ernment."· he said. "Congress has been 'chipping away in this area, but there Is now no cloud hanging over Congress." The stakes are high if Congress contem- plates further taxing municipal bond Inter· est. Aides noted yesterday that Congress could raise about $54.7 bllUon over five years by taxing general purpose state and local government debt. When Sen. Bob Packwood (R., Ore,) In 1986 proposed in- cluding aU municipal bond interest In cal- culating the minimum tax. It caused chaos ' in bond markets for two days before the Idea was dropped.· ~ In challenging the registration law. lo- cal officials said It interfered with states· autonomy. And they said taxing unregis- : tered bonds wouJd violate, the immunity guaranteed in 1895. I . , , Yesterday. state and local officials saw the ruUng as a major legal and phllosophl· cal defeat and a new threat to their financ' ing options. Alan Beals. director of the Na· tional League of ClUes, said It was Uke "a decree of unconditional surrender imposed on state and local government." ' Use of the bonds by state and local gov- ernments is already shrinking, according to National Governors' Association aide I Richard Gellman, because of 1986 tax law changes. He said that only SUM btlJion In bonds were Issued last year. compared with about S205 billion In 1985. But state of- ficials still see them as critical to the n· nancing of roads.'. scbools, bridges and other projects. because Interest costs nm , between 25'0 and 35'0 below rates for taxa· ble bonds. . . "You're talking about substantial in- creases that are going to have to be borne by taxpayers," Mr. Gellman said. Justice BreMan said In his opinion that the registration law doesn't violate the 10th Amendment, whicb reserves for the states Please Turn to Page 8. Column 6 High Court Decision On Municipal Bonds Affects Market Briefly Continued From Page J . pointed out that they and their state and municipality clients long ago stopped using constitutional arguments to justify tax·ex- empt status.

' . "PollticaUy. Congress Isn't going to do that," said Mr. Koenen, emphasizing that most players In the municipal business have always assumed that "our protection Is political. not constitutional." . . Indeed. Mr. FrledJander said the dec1· slon could be helpful In the long ron. He said his firm and others can now argue to : state and local finance officials that they need to concentrate on the economic soundness of tax-exemption for municipal bonds and drop ill-founded clatms of con· stitutional protection that Congress cUdn·t acknowledge anyway. "Constitutional protection has been a shield that some of them have hidden be- hind," he said. "Now they can't hide be- hind it any longer. They've got to go to Washington and ariue policy, not protec- tion. " . ~ Both he and Mr, Koenen suggest that key congressmen already are taking a more sympathetic view of the funding· problems facing state and local govern- ments In the wake of the 1986 tax law, which imposed tough new curbs on tax-ex- empt bond Issuance. "There's a mucb more open and fair cU· alogue," said Mr. Koenen. "They lunder- stand that some or all of the restricUons are costing state and local governments money and not bringing In the anticlpa~ revenue. There's a sense of openess by Washington to look at specific issues. It ··But not aD munclpal bond professionals are convinced that future municipal Issues will enjoy tax-exempt, status.: They ,worry: that as Congress and a new prestd~t be-. ~ gin casting for ways to lower the I federal budget deficit in the next few years. µ'ey'll find municipal bonds a tempting target. "Congress wilJ be revisiting some of the earlier proposals Uke a value-added tax. a gasoline tax or Increases in income tax rates." said the head of municipal bond op- erations at a large bank. "Now state and local government financing will be a part of that package"· . . ; Municipal bond fund managers braced for a Ourry of questions over the next fèw days from confused investors. "I expect we'l) get a lot of calls from dealers and shareholders once the reports start getting out there," said Andy Jolmson, director of municipal securities at the Franklin Group of funds In San Mateo. Callf. With $16 bil- lion in municipal bonds, Franklin is one of the largest municipal bond fund man· agers. . ~e . I I I i I i ¡ I I - !Ie I I I I I I ¡ - - ! I ; I - i I - I !

I ¡I CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS _ Council Meeting Date: 4/25/88 PS 87-48 Agenda Number: This Short Form Plat Application is presented for consideration of Lot 5, Block 4, Hewitt Estates. The property is located on the south side of Hewitt Street west of Post Oak Drive. The property address is 7608 Hewitt Drive. The purpose for the Short Form Plat is to identify the existing property by Lot and Block. The subject property is currently occupied by the applicant's residence. The applicant wishes to improve the existing residence and construct an accessory building/garage. The platting was required by the Subdivision Ordinance. I In reviewing the Proposed Platting the Public Works Director noted that the lot is ii','1 currently served by City water but is on a septic tank system for sewer and the existing street in front of the property is unimproved. Under the requirements of the Subdivision Ordinance the applicant must provide full development service to the lot, :::'1 including the installation of the sewer and the construction of the street adjacent to the subject property. The applicant has responded to these requirements by requesting consideration of a variance which would relieve him of the immediate requirement of :¡'II."I these two items. He indicates that the sewer system to serve his lot has not been extended and is beyond the three hundred (300') feet maximum stated in the Water and I Sewer Policy Manual. He also notes that the entire block of Hewitt Street where he is " ~located is not currently improved. The Staff is of the opinion that the applicant's II ~arguments are valid. However, if the variance is granted it should be with the ! stipulation that covenant agreements be required of the applicant guaranteeing future , voluntary assessments on the sewer and street construction. :1 ¡I RECOMMENDATION: \1 The Planning and Zoning Commission approved Plat Application PS 87-48 allowing Short Form Platting of Lot 5, Block 4, Hewitt Estates with the stipulation that the applicant . enter into voluntary assessment covenants with the City covering the fu,ture construction of the necessary sewer main and the street construction. :1 I It is recommended that the City Council act upon the recommendation of approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

Subject: - ¡ Po 1 ice Department Council Meeting Date: 4/25/88 Purchase of Lomputer Alded tmergency ulspatch System _ Resolution No. 88-12 Agenda Number: PU 88-24 The proposed system will replace the manual system of dispatching calls for service by automatically retrieving data elements from E-9-1-1 call screens, recommending unit assignments based on location and unit availability, assigning proper district and reporting area designations and logging all related information. As a result of automation, the approximately 69,000 annual calls for service will be handled more promptly and accurately by reducing steps required for handling calls for emergency service.' The reduction in manual steps should reduce overall the Fire and Pol ice Department1s response time. This system also provides benefits not available under our current system including: - Apartment Complex Layouts - Building Layouts - Hazardous Location Warning Areas - Elapsed Time Warning Signal - Enhanced Information Processing and Report Generation This system will be compatible with Mobile Data Terminals (MDT's) when (if) they are purchased by the City. By acting now and buying the hardware and software together we are able to effect a savings of approximately $15,000 as opposed to delaying the purchase until a later ~ime. The software is a single source item and must be purchased with the hardware in order to get the combined price of $22,500. The software is to be paid for by the Police Department in the amount of $12,300 from Drug Seizure funds. The balance of $10,000 will be paid from Fire Department Non-General Fund allocations. Funding Source As indicated above, the proposed Police funding is from Drug Seizure funds and the Fire Department funding is from Move-In Budget in the CIP Funds. The proposed funding is listed as follows: 01-00-00-4314 Escrow Special Investigation 13-90-86-6250 Move-In Costs - Capital Total Cost $12,300 10,200 $22,500 Recommendation: Approve Resolution No. 88-12 and approval of payment from above listed sources.

This project includes paving improvements on Emerald Hills Yay from Davis Blvd. to Cork Lane. Also included are paving improvements on Emerald Court. Alternates were provided for both asphalt paving (Alternate 1), and concrete paving (Alternate 2). A summary tabulation of the low bidders is presented below. Bids were received from a total of five (5) contractors. The low bid for Alternate 1 (Asphalt Paving) was received from J.L. Bertram Company, 1007 Harrison Avenue, Arlington, Texas 76010. The low bid'for Alternate 2 (Concrete Paving) was received from Austin Paving Company, P.O. Box 947022, Ft. Vorth, Texas 76147. The bid tabulations are broken down as follows: Alternate 1 Alternate 2 * J.L. BERTRAM * * AUSTIN PAVING * Budget (Asphalt) (Concrete) Total Low Bid $ 202,146.76 $ 286,803.06 $ 329,600 Calendar Days No Bid 135 270 The following· is a summary of all bids: ASPHALT CONCRETE TIME J.L.

The Asphalt bid by J.L. B~rtram is about 30-percent lower than the Concrete bid by Austin Paving. Both of these alternates are lower than the total budgeted amount of $ 329,600 authorized by you for this project. Alternate 1, by J.L.

A $5,000 allowance has been provided in this contract for miscellaneous water or sewer adjustments which may be required, such as sprinkler system adjustments, etc., but no budget for major water or sewer line replacements is provided. If during construction of the street pavement, it is revealed that additional underground water or sewer main adjustments are required, then extra utility funding will be necessary. Regarding the two alternates provided in this contract, Alternate 1 includes a 6.inch thick asphalt pavement section on 8-inches of stabilized subgrade, and Alternate 2 includes a 6-inch thick reinforced concrete pavement section on 8-inches of stabilized subgrade. Because of the expansive soils upon which the proposed pavement will be constructed, you can anticipate future movement and cracking of both an asphalt or concrete pavement surface throughout the life of the street. Soils in the area of Emerald Hills Vay are unstable and similar to those in the Harwood Road vicinity where evidence of subsurface soil movement also exists. A two-year maintenance bond is provided in this contract which requires the contractor to repair all cracks or pavement failures during this maintenance period. Ve would defer recommendation of which Alternate to award, asphalt or concrete pavement, to the Public Yorks Department. Based on the bids submitted, we would recommend award of the contract to J.L. Bertram Company, if Alternate 1 (Asphalt) is selected, in the amount of $ 202,146.76 for a period to be negotiated, or to Austin Paving Company, if Alternate 2 (Concrete) is selected, in the amount of $ 286,803.06, for a period of 135 Calendar Days. Ve will be present at the April 25, 1988, Council meeting to answer any questions you may have concerning this project. ~w,~ RICHARD V. ALBIN, P.E. RVA/ra Enclosures cc: Hr. Rodger N.

CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS 'I_epartment: Subject: Public Works Approval of Proposed North Richland Boulevard/ Mockingbird Lane and Davis Boulevard (FM 1938) Traffic Signalization by the State Council Meeting Date: 4/25/88 Agenda Number: PW 88-11 I :1 ! i ;1 [I The Texas Department of Highways and Public Transportation (TDH&PT) has contracted with a private engineering firm for all design work on FM 1938 (Davis Boulevard) Street Improvements from Emerald Hills Way to Rumfield Road (Starnes Road). The plans including the traffic signalization at the subject intersection have been completed. The State first took traffic counts on the subject intersection in March of 1986 and warranted the signalization. It appears that possibly the City·s preference at that time as indicated to the State was College Circle & Davis Boulevard (see attached). The State came back and took traffic counts on North Richland Boulevard & Davis Boulevard and Mockingbird Lane & Davis Boulevard in November of 1987. The counts revealed that signals were warranted here also. Due to the very short distance between these two intersections, they would have to be signalized at the same time and with only one controller, such as a typical four-way intersection. Discussions with TDH&PT staff members has revealed that the State can install either the signals at College Circle & Davis Boulevard or the North Richland Boulevard/Mockingbird Lane & Davis Boulevard signals. The State requests that we let them know as soon as ~ossible. No monies will be required by the State if we elect to go ahead with signals at College Circle & Davis Boulevard intersection. If the City decides that the first signals should be installed at North Richland Boulevard/Mockingbird Lane & Davis Boulevard, then the State may request the City to pay for the necessary redesign which may cost approximately $7,500. The request for change in location of the signalization from College Circle to North Richland Boulevard/Mockingbird Lane would require TDH&PT approval from Austin as well as Federal Highway Department approval. A possible delay in the beginning of construction could occur due to this redesign and approval process. Source of Funds: Bonds (GO/Rev.) _ Operating Budget ., Other , GO Finance Review Acct.

Renfro State Department of Highways and Public Transportation P. O. Box 6868 Fort Worth, Texas . 76115 ., Re: Signalization at Davis Blvd. and College Circle Dear Mr. Renfro: The City of North Richland Hills would like to construct a traffic signal at the int~~~ection of Davis Blvd. and College Circle. I have enclosed three copies of a diagram showing the phasing of the traffic signal at this location. Because of the planned improvements on Davis Blvd. in 1987 we are proposing to use creosoted poles with span wires at this time. When the improvements to Davis Blvd. are accomplished in 1987, we will switch the signals to steel overhanging type poles at that time. .. .......--.... .~. - We plan t~ use a four phase controller at this location with timed loop detectors at the location shown. The loop detector for the center lane north bound on Davis Blvd. would be set far enough back that it would take approximately three vehicles waiting to make a left turn before the signal would cycle for the left turn., The center north bound lane would still be allowed to continue through and there would also be a permissive left turn ·on a green signal. Hopefully, the timed delay loop on College Circle would be enough to allow right turners to turn right without causing Ii, '~.::~ ..,~ -"'~~ ~: t1a~~:g~~~:to cycle., -"'--~-_.'O.q~'---.~~,:~---.v_~",:?:::7;=::::: The City of North Rich1and Hills request the Highway Department's concurrence with the construction of these signals.

They stated that the cost would be approximately $10,000 to do this and that they would like to have the Council consider this. The CIP Committee stated that the staff would check out the details for putting a sidewalk at this location and report back and this would be an agenda item for the meeting of January 26, 1987. The staff report will be given to the Council before the regular agenda is sent out. Gene The CIP Committee instructed the staff to keep working on the right-of-way for Watauga Road. If the right-of-way was not obtained by the Fall of 1987, then the staff was to put this before the Council for condemnation of all right-of-ways that we had not obtained for Watauga Road. Gene The CIP Committee recommended that the following owners of property of the Starnes Road right-of- way be placed on the next Council agenda for authorization of condemnation. These owners are B. R. Seale, W. H. Long, and Goode, Inc. (Henry Sutton). Gene Dennis Horvath made a report that this owner's right-of-way should be in any day now. It was a matter of their attorney getting the document and check to the Cranes for their signature. The CIP Committee also instructed that when we construct this leg of Hightower Drive that we consider taking it all the way to the east boundary of the new box culvert on Hightower and to activate getting the additional right- of-way along Hightower.

I I CONSIDERATION i OF COUNTY I RESURFACING PROJECT FOR 1987 I Ie I I DISCUSSION The CIP Committee instructed the staff to have the Planning and Zoning Commission make a recommendation to the Council on this matter and to recommend a change in the thoroughfare plan. The CIP Committee recommended that this be placed on the next Council agenda and recommended that the Council approve participation on Holiday Lane to Starnes Road on the east boundary of the new school site. The CIP Committee recommended that we proceed with engineering and construction of five signalized intersections within the city. It was recommended that the Council approve this project as soon as we have a cost estimate to do the project and as soon as several complications are cleared up on some of the intersections. The intersections recommended for signalization are: Starnes Road and Rufe Snow; Starnes Road and Smithfield Road; College Circle and Davis Blvd.; Lola and Holiday Lane; and, Smithfield and Chapman. The construction of the signal on Starnes and Rufe Snow will be held up until we get the City of Watauga to participate on this intersection. The signal at Starnes and Smithfield Road will be held up until Starnes Road is reconstructed in the near future. There are three intersections that probably can proceed at this time without any problems, and they are: Smithfield and Chapman; College Circle and Davis; and, Holiday and Lola. The CIP Committee recommended that we ask the County to resurface Hightower (from Rufe Snow to the west side of the new box culvert) on Hightower and Douglas Lane (from Hightower to Starnes Road). This is a budgeted item and does not require Council approval for the funding. A letter was to be drafted to the County Commissioner making this request.

August 19, 1987 Ref: CCL 0036-87 Mr. J. R. Stone District Engineer State Department of Highways and Public Transportation P. O. Box 6868 Fort Worth, TX 76115 Dear Mr. Stone: The signalization project at Maplewood and Davis Boulevard (F.M. 1938) is a most welcome addition, but we do wish to reemphasize the need for signalization further north on Davis Boulevard at either College Circle or North Richland Boulevard - whichever your research shows to be the most effective location. You are, of course, aware of the imminent plans to construct a 28,000 square foot post office facility on the west side of Davis Boulevard - approximately SOD.feet north of College Circle. r would also like to call attention to a couple of problem areas on Highway 26. Left turn lanes at the Harwood Road intersection are badly needed to facilitate the flow of traffic on Highway 26. The other problem location is at the flashing light at the top of the hill. A left turn lane for south (west) bound traffic entering Tarrant County Junior College is needed for safety. We would greatly appreciate anything that can be done to facilitate the solution of these other problem locations. , Again, we appreciate what is being done at this time at Maplewood Drive and Davis Boulevard.

It was determined that the proposed· Subdivision Ordinance would be the lead topic of discussion at the next of the annual lIinput sessions to be scheduled with area builders and developers. There was very little response from the builders at the Public Hearing conducted by the Plann.ing and Zoning Commission (3 responses out of 100 letters). The next meeting is less formal than t'he Planning and Zoning and hopefully we can have more participation. As a result of a question and comment by Councilwoman Spurlock, Rex McEntire was asked to include a paragraph in the proposed Subdivision Ordinance stating that when vacating an easement and after the property has been advertised -- Page Two 3/14/88 Pre-Council ASSIGNMENT ~ /" C.A./Danny Taylor Please follow up Rex Please handle I I' (:,~~~. e £~~~'i . t~,~~'~r I fir t~~AL _.RA~'ïK_"t !
