I feel it would NOT be in p '

is the Loss of t1m;— � to the city work force. If that Resolution passed,
any companycould ask and receive employees time while they were on the

SUBJECT:
Tarrant County Water Supply Project
Expansion to Include Hurst
The City of Hurst has now formally requested to become a member of the
Tarrant County Water Supply Project. Attached is a copy of their formal
request, further, the City of Hurst will find it most advantageous if
that contractual arrangement is completed in advance of March 1, 19805
the date beyond which all Contracting Parties enter with less rights re-
lating to the priority of water. Accordingly, the staff of the Northern
Region is proceeding in a fashion that will enable all options to remain
open with respect to the present Contracting Porti es of the Authority's
system, as well as to the City of Hurst. Due to the short time constraints,
we have already requested concurrence from the Tarrant County Water Control
and Improvement Di strict Number one in the purchase of raw water from the
District for purposes of resale to the City of Hurst. Attached is a y
o co letter - � P
f g tte r to the District relating to this request. During a District
Advisory Committee Meeting on January 16, 1980, the District. in conjunc-
tion 'unc-
tion with_ officials of the City of Fort Worth, stated that they had no ob-
jections to the Authority providing service t Hurst. e re-
ceipt y p g r o ur 4i anticipate pate re •
cei pt of a Tetter from the District in the next few days granting that right
under terms of the present Raw water Contract.
g
I have. requested- that Paul Horton prepare a draft contract for con.!�ider ti n
� a
by Hurst and the staff of the Northern Region that would implement a con-
tractual agreement between the Authority and. Hurst, thus expandi.ng there--
pre-
sent f ive.;ti ty .system to a six -city system. This contract wi11 be prepared
along the � P P
o g same guidelines del Ines and wi. thi n the same. framework as th_e three con. --
tracts which. were prepared for.the -three additional Contracting P ties du
9 ar r
i ng 1979. Upon securing this Contract, I wl1 l forward copies es to you'for o re-
view _ ye r
view and wi.l 1 schedule a di scuss�on meets ng with. each Contracts ng Part to
discuss theParties,� Contract and its effect on each o f the Contracting if
any. It i:s hoped that distribution of the draft contract can be made to
each of the parties prior to Monday, 4anuary 28, and that discussions with
each of the parties can be held during the first week of Fe ruary . All nec-

Re: TRA Tarrant County
Water Project
Pro j . No .. 209-W .
Dear Mr. Brewer:
In accordance with our earlier conversations and correspondence, it is
the desire of the City of Hurst to join the Tarrant County Water Project.
The City has received verbal concurrence with our joining the project
from the City of Fort Worth. Written concurrence is anticipated shortly.
Please initiate the actions needed to enable the City of Hurst to
execute a contract for service with TRA. Finalization of the necessary
contracts prior to March 1, 1980 is desired -to guarantee Hurst as a full
partner in the system.
As indicated in our earlier correspondence, the Ci ty' s initial average
day take would be approximately 1.1 M.G.D. The ultimate average day -take
would be 3.3 M.G.D. The ultimate maximum day take would be 7.7 M. G . D.
based on full development. The TRA -service area in Hurst will be .confined
to the upper _pressure *plane.
The desired point of service for this water supply is at Watauga -Smithfield
Road (Glade Road) and -future Hurstvi ew Drive. This point of delivery will
be recommended in a report being prepared for the City by Graham and
Associates

In accordance with our earlier conversations and correspondence, it is
the desire of the City of Hurst to join the Tarrant County . Water Project.
The City has received verbal concurrence with our joining the project
from the City of Fort Worth. Written concurrence is anticipated shortly.
Please initiate the actions needed to enable the City of Hurst to
execute a contract for service with TRA. Finalization of the necessary
contracts prior to March 1, 1980 is desired to guarantee Hurst as a full
partner in the system.
As indicated in our earlier correspondence, the Ci ty` s initial average
day take would be approximately 1.1 M.G.D. The ultimate average day take
would be 3.3 M.G.D. The ultimate maximum day take would be 7.7 M.G.D.
based on full development. The TRA service area in Hurst will be confined
to the upper pressure plane.
The desired point of service for this water supply is at Watauga -Smithfield
Road (Glade Road) and future Hurstvi ew Drive. This point of delivery will
be recommended in a report being prepared for the City by Graham and
Associates

JANUARY 8, 1980

Minutes of the meeting on November 13, 1979 were approved
by a motion from the Chairman Bill. Betts, seconded by
Vice Chairman Bob Henderson. Voting was 2 - 0.
ROLL CALL: COMMISSION MEMBERS PRESENT

Bob L. Henderson, Vice Chairman

• G. W. Williams, Police Chief
Sergeant Ron McKinney
AGENDA Item 1. Consider Job Descriptions for Police Officer III -
Detective and Corporal -
The Commission asked Chief Williams and Sergeant McKinney
to present this item and explain the ways the department
would benefit from the corporal classification.
They stated that by having a corporal position, police
officers could be promoted to a level equal to detective
and yet_not be_in the detective division. Corporals
would be only in the patrol division. Also, by having
a corporal for each patrol shift, there will be authorized
supervision at all times for each shift, Lateral transfers
can be made between the detectives and corporals, all of
which are positive incentive characteristics.
The position of Police Officer III was allocated in last
year's budget, however, no job description was written.
During the past year this title has applied to detectives
only, therefore, the Commission accepts the concept of
allowing the title -to cover both the detectives and the
corporals.
Vice Chairman Bob Henderson made a motion to approve the
title of Police Officer III, Class Code 111 for Detective;
111-A for Corporal; to include four people as Corporals
and to recommend a salary for Corporals equal to the
present salary of Detectives; that proper testing be set up

Two Hundred Thousand dollars ($200,000.) upgrading the

the City of North Richland Hills that tithe dollar amount
of our improvements be subtracted from the purchase price.
Should you or members of your city council have any
questions in regards to this matter, please feel free
to call me.
