Date: July 13, 2009 ~.d u.:. L Subject: Discuss Proposed Replacement of City Network and Telephone Systems Staff will be making a brief presentation on the status of the existing six year old network system and 10 year old telephone system and the benefits of the proposed replacement with a Cisco system. Both the network and telephone systems currently in use have exceeded the vendor's end of life cycle and the stability and reliability of each of the systems have declined. The network equipment and its replacement parts are no longer being manufactured due to the end of life process and the vendor removing itself from the network market to focus on its core products. Fujitsu, manufacturer of the current telephone system, removed itself from the enterprise telephone market several years ago and the City has been working with a company who purchased their surplus parts for maintaining the system. We have experienced several failures of varying magnitude over the last couple of years and currently have devices that have to be reset on a regular basis. With the network and telephone systems being the backbone of many of the City services, along with the increase in network traffic, the rate of these failures is unacceptable. The proposed replacement using a state of the art Cisco network and IP telephone system will immediately increase the reliability and stability, and offers several significant advantages to the City, its employees and customers. The advantages include: • Savings in annual maintenance costs • Savings in wiring costs • Training and qualified staff in immediate DFW area • Additional functionality The time allotted for this item will be used to make a brief presentation on the proposed system and allow Council an opportunity to discuss the system. A Cisco representative will be present to assist in answering any questions Council may have. Respectful ly Submitted, Kyle W. Spooner Director of Information Services. ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS INFORMAL REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL No. IR 2009-068 i :;. Date: July 13, 2009 %;-,, y~ ~ '. ~~ ~,~` Subject: Residential Occupancy Inspection Program During the January 2009 Goals Work Session, the City Council established the City's goals. One of their goals was Providing Quality Community Development and Revitalization. One of the key objectives related to this goal was to Ensure Compliance with Quality Housing Standards As City Council is aware, the city currently has a multifamily inspection program that has been in operation for 4 years which includes semi-annual inspections for all our apartment complexes. Staff is now requesting to receive input from City Council regarding a Single Family Residential Inspection Program that would include formal inspections for single-family, duplex, 3-plex, or 4-plexes. The Residential Inspection Program is meant to address primary interior and exterior safety, structural and maintenance issues and not colors, style or general aesthetics of each structure. The residential inspection would also look for zoning violations, unauthorized construction, and drainage modifications. The critical inspections that would ensure that minimum maintenance standards are met include the following: • Operable water & sewer system • Operable bathroom & kitchen facilities • Door, window & screen conditions • Exterior paint, waterproofing and exterior maintenance • Insect infestations • General repair (holes in walls, floors, etc.) • Fire/smoke detection systems • Grading changes (prevent standing and stagnant water) • Overgrown vegetation that may harm building/occupants • Water heating and HVAC • General dilapidation • Emergency egress from sleeping rooms • Building/zoning code violations (i.e. unauthorized enclosed garages, sheds, pools) ISSUED BY THE CITY MANAGER NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS ~ Staff will give a presentation during the July 13, 2009 Work Session providing an overview of a Single Family Residential Inspection Program. The presentation will include staffs anticipated objectives for such a program. We are most interested in receiving Council feedback to see if this type of inspection program is of interest and if it is, then we can provide further details at a future meeting. Our objective would be to seek safe, sanitary, healthy structures for residents who are renting, and to continue our efforts to keep our neighborhoods good quality areas to live. Again, staff is seeking direction and or suggestions/comments from Council towards a single-family occupancy program that could be brought forth for consideration in the near future. We look forward to discussing this matter with you next Monday evening.

The City will also receive Pass Through Allocation funds through TxDOT for the Boulevard 26 multi-use trail along Calloway Creek and the Boulevard 26 Overlay between Davis and Mid-Cities. The City has also applied for competitive ARRA grants such as the Diesel Emission Reduction Program and Byrne Competitive Grants and is considering Economic Development ARRA funds for public improvements to the Calloway Creek Retail area and Neighborhood Stabilization funds which would allow the City to purchase and rehabilitate, resell or tear down foreclosed residential property within the City. There are also AARA programs residents and businesses can apply for that the City has no control over. The City does not meet the population criteria for the Weatherization funds, but residents can apply to the Fort Worth Housing Authority for assistance.

Ms. Reining explained in more detail the Energy Efficient and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG). This is a new program in which the City has been allocated a large amount of funds. EECBG was first introduced into law in 2008 but the program did not receive any funding. Through ARRA, EECBG was allocated $3.2 billion and North Richland Hills has been directly allocated $584,900. These funds can be used for municipal purposes as well as programs for local residences and businesses that promote energy effciency within city limits. Council was advised of several possible projects for the EECBG program. Projects proposed with the available funding are: Window Replacement ($25,000), Solar Panel Project ($14,384), Simple Household Energy Conservation Tools ($5,000), Green BIG ($25,000), Fire Department Vehicles Shoreline Project ($9,000), Solar Power School Zone Beacon Upgrades ($180,000), Long Term Energy Efficiency ($100,000), School Flasher Led Upgrades ($20,000), De-lamp City buildings ($49,000), Green Tenant Improvements ($25,000), Solar Power City Entry Signs ($70,000), Solar Photovoltaic System at Dan Echols ($57,000).

Notice of the City's intent to bid was advertised in local newspapers, as required by State Statute and posted on the City's Website. Thirty two (32) vendors were contacted and requested to participate in this bid process. Bid specifications were viewed by nineteen (19) additional vendors. Seven (7) bids from the following vendors were received: Aleman Industries Armstrong Landscape Green Collar Workers Signature Contracting Services TruGreen Landcare Vardiman VMC Landscape Services The Public Works Department has reviewed the bid documents submitted for the Right- of-Way Mowing (09-028). Based upon the review and evaluation, the department is recommending Signature Contracting Services be awarded the contract. Signature Contracting Services was not the low bidder. The low bidder was Vardiman Grounds: Mr. Vardiman has withdrawn their bid due to the hardship it would cause their company. The $16,350 price quoted by Vardiman Grounds is not sufficient enough to cover the expense of having to hire the staff and purchase the equipment needed to complete the work required by the Right-of-Way Mowing Contract for the City of North Richland Hills. Second low bidder was Aleman Industries: Aleman failed to submit a list of the company's equipment inventory as required in the bid specifications. This information was provided by Aleman Industries at a post bid interview. The equipment inventory was inadequate to complete the required Right-of-Way Mowing Contract for the City. No information was submitted concerning a plan to obtain additional equipment needed. Signature Contracting Services provided adequate financial statements, equipment inventory list and reference information with their bid packet. Signature Contracting performs this type of mowing services for the City of Desoto, Duncanville, Southlake and Keller. Reference checks were positive and all indicated good quality of work and quick response to request and concerns. The specifications call for pricing to remain firm for a twelve (12) month period with options to extend the contract for an additional three (3) twelve (12) month periods if it remains beneficial to the City as well as Signature Contracting Services. City staff has investigated the possibility of combining the Public Works Right-of--Way mowing contract with the Parks and Recreation Parks mowing contract in the past in order to take advantage of "economies of scale". The challenge that staff has faced previously is finding one company large enough to handle the mowing requirements and schedules for the entire city. Staff will continue to look at this as a future possibility but at this time we are recommending that the city continues with two separate contractors.

CASE SUMMARY OF REQUEST: The applicant is requesting approval of a Special Use Permit (SUP) in order to operate a business that will include customization and installation of aftermarket vehicle parts, accessories, tires and wheels. The primary vehicles this type of work will be done on are medium to high end trucks, SUV's and Jeeps. The company currently has a location in Wichita Falls. Since the Wichita Falls location has done well the applicant is planning to expand into the DFW market area. The operation will also include Internet sales of parts and accessories. The location of the new business (6920 NE Loop 820) was originally Service King Paint and Body repair facility; and more recently a car audio and alarm installation business. Due to the existing structure at this location previously being constructed for automotive type services it is also set up adequately for the proposed operations. The proposed operations will include a vehicle service area using existing overhead service bay doors located on the rear of the structure, a show room/accessory sales area, as well as business offices. There will be no outside storage of merchandise or vehicles being serviced. Several improvements will be done to the site as part of the new occupancy. Since the building has been vacant for sometime the applicant will be re-installing required landscaping as well as providing additional landscaping. Rock and Roll Offroad will also be re-painting the building to match the color scheme of their business. The total landscape improvements being proposed exceed the required parking lot landscaped area requirements. The applicant intends to sign a three year lease on the property. The property owner and applicant are both aware of the future expansion of NE Loop 820 and the potential impact on the property. Because of the future highway widening project the lease for the property will include a clause that the lease can be terminated should the future right-of- way (indicated in red on the attached Site Plan Exhibit) negatively impacts the business. EXISTING ZONING: "C-1" commercial. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approved by a 4-0 vote. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: To uphold the recommendation of the Planning and Zoning Commission and approve the SUP request based on all operations taking place within the structure and no outside storage-Ordinance 3058.

Chairman Shiflet opened the Public Hearing at 7:02 p.m. Chris Leitner, 1341 Bassetthound Rd, Haslet, TX came forward with a request for an accessory supply and retail location for jeep, SUV, truck parts such as shocks, tires, wheels and aftermarket parts to help dress up vehicles. In addition, his company is involved in the off road racing community as vendors. The primary reason for moving from Wichita Falls to North Richland Hills is because of the demographic the area brings as well as development that the region brings. The current location in Wichita Falls is at a stuck point which is why they are moving. They are currently working on the site plan to upgrade the property with current zoning that would enhance the appearance of the building. Five of the current Bradford pear trees will be removed and seven new trees will be added for enhancement. He explained they do offer a retail store online with has become a large focus of their business. The Internet has enabled them to advertise across the country as well as worldwide with their site. The business is a family run operation and plans on staying for a long time. Mr. Leitner said he wanted to point out the acknowledgement of the TXDOT expansion with the North Tarrant Expressway and the proposed right of way. He spoke with TXDOT as of Tuesday this week to ensure the proper location of their right of way on the site plan. In addition, they confirmed they will maintain two entry points into that location. Initially at the beginning of the year this was not the case. But they have agreed to maintain the right of way according to the current site plan. Chairman Shiflet confirmed with Mr. Leitner that with the expansion, the new right of way and two entrances would he still be able to stay at that location? Mr. Leitner said the only thing that could possibly interfere is when they bring the right of way in they could possibly lose 6-8 parking spaces in the front. But there is no parking in the front as it is. All the parking is on the east and the west side including 25-28 spaces. But this is a chance they are willing to take because TXDOT is going to maintain the entrance points. Eric Wilhite came forward stating that when the applicants from Rock and Roll Offroad came in regarding the land use, Staff has reviewed the project request closely due to the land use which requires a Special Use Permit. With the fact that the building was originally constructed for Service King Automotive Paint and Body Repair had a significant influence on Staff supporting this type of SUP request. In addition the building has been vacant for nearly three years. The applicant is planning on leasing the building for three years and will be doing significant landscaping improvements. Staff discussed the pending 820 Expansion project with the applicant and the future ROW has been indicated as best as possible on the site plan. On the right of way line that TXDOT has provided there appears to be a parkway so the landscaping could possibly shift back. Staff reviewed these factors to see how they would impact the building and parking if they are still there when that takes place. It appears they would not lose more than one or two parking spaces, some of the front portion might be taken and those things could be worked out with Service King and TXDOT. Regarding the landscaping and structure, there will be some enhancements to the facade of the building and updating the paint scheme to match what they want to do as opposed to Service King. The overhead doors for service bays are on the rear of the facility and part of the discussion between Staff and the applicant indicate that all the work would take place inside the building which would reduce or eliminate surrounding neighborhood complaints of storage or noise. Mr. Wilhite stated if there were to be complaints of that sort, we would have to come in and revisit the SUP or do some type of screening from the public right of way if vehicles to be serviced were stored outside. Eric Wilhite stated that Staff did not receive any negative comments or concerns form the neighboring business owner or residence. Staff believes the adjacent business would be supportive, as Mr. Leitner stated, of the applicants going in to that location creating visibility and more activity in that area. Staff is in support of the SUP request. Jared Pugh, 2015 McGregor, Wichita Falls, TX came forward thanking the Commission for hearing the case and said they are excited to work with North Richland Hills. Chairman Shiflet asked if there was anyone else wishing to speak for or against the case, there being none he closed the Public Hearing at 7:10 p.m. APPROVED Bill Schopper motioned to approve SUP 2009-04, seconded by Don Bowen. The motion was carried unanimously (4-0).

CITY OF NORTH R/CHLAND HILLS Department: City Secretary Presented by: Council Meeting Date: 7-13-2009 Agenda No. E.0 Subject: PUBLIC WORKS CITY OF NORTH R/CHLAND HILLS Department: Public Works Council Meeting Date: 7-13-2009 Presented by: Gregory Van Nieuwenhuize Agenda No. E.1 Subject: PW 2009-022 Award a Professional Services Agreement to Hamilton Duffy, P.C. in the amount of $66,500 for the Yarmouth Avenue Street Improvements Project. This Capital Improvements Project is identified as the "Yarmouth Avenue (Mid-Cities Blvd. to Newcastle PI.)" Project in the Capital Projects Budget (Project No. ST0910). This project will consist of the engineering design of Yarmouth Avenue from Mid-Cities Boulevard to Newcastle Place. The project's design will include reconstructing the existing 31-feet wide asphalt roadway with concrete pavement. The roadway design will include concrete sidewalks on both sides of the street and the appropriate drainage improvements to ensure the existing storm drain system is in compliance with the Public Works Design Manual. Staff followed the City's policy for procuring professional services for the design of this project. Requests for Qualifications were initially sent to 52 local engineering firms; 45 firms responded by submitting Statements of Qualifications ("SOQs") to the City. Five (5) North Richland Hills' staff members (Public Works Engineer Associate, Parks & Recreation Superintendent, Economic Development Marketing & Research Coordinator, Facilities & Construction Project Manager and Information Services Network Services System Administrator) comprised the selection committee. The selection committee reviewed the 16 most qualified SOQs for this type of project and selected the top five (5) firms based on each firm's design experience on similar projects, current work load, proposed project approach and estimated design schedule. The top five firms chosen by the committee were: Binkley Barfield, Brockett Davis & Drake, Hamilton Duffy, Pate Engineers and Weir & Associates. After each of these firms provided presentations to the committee, Binkley Barfield was chosen as the top firm for the Yarmouth Avenue Street Improvements Project. Staff began discussions with Binkley Barfield to negotiate a fee and reasonable scope for the project; however, we were unable to come to mutually agreeable terms. Staff ended negotiations with Binkley Barfield and contacted Hamilton Duffy, which was the committee's next recommendation. Hamilton Duffy, P.C. was established as a consulting civil engineering firm in 2002. They provide a wide range of municipal services which include street design, water and sanitary sewer systems, storm drainage system design and erosion control system design (SWPPP's). Using state of the art computer equipment, Hamilton Duffy provides its clients with high quality consulting engineering services. They recognize that the design process affects the total construction cost of each and every project, so they communicate frequently with clients to meet project deadlines and ensure a quality and cost-effective project. Located in the City of North Richland Hills since 2007, Hamilton Duffy looks forward to developing a long lasting relationship with the City beginning with this project. . The engineering agreement outlines the scope of work in Exhibits B & C. Listed below are the key items within the scope of work: • Project limits are from Mid-Cities Boulevard to New Castle Place • All necessary design and survey components for roadway and sidewalk improvements in addition to analyzing the existing drainage system to ensure compliance with Public Works Design Manual. • Sanitary Sewer design. • Design of a traffic control plan. • Permit for Texas Department of Licensing and Review (TDLR) required for accessibility compliance. • Provide up to two (2) easement documents for this project.

N/A 7 Signature of person doing business with the governmental entity Date Adopted 01/13/2006 CITY OF NORTH R/CHLAND HILLS Department: City Secretary Presented by: Council Meeting Date: 7-13-2009 Agenda No. F.0 Subject: GENERAL ITEMS CITY OF NORTH R/CHLAND HILLS Department: Planning and Development Council Meeting Date: 7-13-2009 Presented by: John Pitstick Agenda No. F.1 Subject: GN 2009-048 Consider Amendment to Chapter 104 Gas Well Drilling and Production -Ordinance No. 3057 Staff continues to work with Chesapeake Energy to allow drilling and to provide safety and aesthetic protection for citizens and property owners. Chesapeake is currently the only gas well operator within North Richland Hills and has active operations on three sites (Graham, Morrow Stevens and Birdville). In addition Chesapeake has recently been approved for gas drilling on the Tarrant County College site. Initial drilling for the Graham and Morrow Stevens gas well sites were established prior to regulations being updated in 2007 that require a 150 feet "no build" easement from the outside boundary of the final production pad site (typically the masonry screening wall location). In both of these situations preliminary plats were approved for the land around the Graham and Morrow Stevens sites prior to the 2007 regulation changes. To further complicate matters Chesapeake planned to drill multiple wells at each of these gas well sites. Because of the regulation changes in 2007 and the fact that the adjacent property owners have development plans that would fall inside the 150 feet "no build" easement it is impossible for Chesapeake to obtain the necessary 150 feet "no build" easement from the adjacent property owners and it is impossible for the property owners to develop their property as originally preliminarily platted. In effect the 2007 gas ordinance regulations regarding the newly established 150 feet easement are prohibiting future building and development by private property owners at these two locations and gas well operators are prohibited from drilling new wells at these locations. The Gas Drilling Ordinance does allow the gas well operator to request waivers from these regulations. Recently, Chesapeake made a request to the Gas Board of Appeals to waive the 150 feet "no build" easement requirement in an effort to proceed with new gas drilling permits at the Morrow Stevens site. The waiver is being requested since the adjacent property owners would not grant the "no build" easements fearing that it would prohibit planned development. Instead of this issue coming up every time Chesapeake plans to drill another well at either of these two locations, staff believes it would be better for the Gas Board case to be postponed and allow staff time to meet with all parties and see is a resolution could be reached. Staff has had several conversations with gas well operators, private property owners and the City Attorney's Office. Staff is recommending revisions to the gas drilling ordinance to~ remove the requirement that prohibits future development outside the permanent masonry wall established as the final production pad site and exempt existing well sites established prior to August 5, 2008 which would include the Graham, Morrow Stevens and Birdville gas well sites. All new gas well sites would have to establish the 150 feet "no build" easement and gas well operators would be well aware of this requirement at the time the gas well sites were established. Specifically, staff is recommending that Section 104-6(j)(5) be repealed (shown as a "mark out" on all text being removed) and Section 104-6(0) be revised (shown as an underline for all text added) to not apply to gas drilling sites established prior to August 5, 2008. Below are the proposed changes to the regulations. Section 104-6(x)(5) Al~f.~ii~hc~+~„~Jir~n ~h° r~rwie~i~r~c+ ~f ~11ic cen*i~r~ .,°ui _ J'i~77T~07~Tr~r-SG GTrO ~ r. ''7 -~°~~ ~;~°. (Repealing this section) Section 104-6(0) Prior to the issuance of any permit, the operator shall obtain and furnish to the city a recordable easement from the owner of affected property as grantor to the city as grantee which prohibits residences, religious institutions, public buildings, retail or commercial buildings within 150 feet of the outside wall or other screening around the final productions gas well site. This subsection shall not aaaly to those sites where one or more gas drilling permits were chanted on or before August 5, 2008. (new section) Staff feels that these proposed changes will allow property owners to continue to develop their property while still allowing ongoing multiple gas wells at major well sites. All newly established well sites will be required to obtain upfront the 150 feet "no build" zone as part of the gas well site. Staff also feels that with the recently established "gas well vicinity notice" requirement for notifying all properties within 600 feet of a gas well will serve as adequate notice to all property owners that may be impacted by future drilling. Also the requirement for the 8 feet permanent masonry wall and landscaping around the final production pad site within 90 days of completion of the first well will serve as a safety and aesthetic barrier from any future development near the gas well site. Existing community standards will continue to be enforced including the 600 feet setback from any structures from a proposed gas well with Gas Board appeal down to 300 feet and property owner approval with Gas Board approval for all properties between 300 feet and 150 feet of any proposed gas well. Recommendation: To approve Ordinance No. 3057. ORDINANCE NO. 3057 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 104-6 OF THE CITY OF NORTH RICHLAND HILLS CODE OF ORDINANCES, BY REPEALING SECTION 104.6(1)(5) RESTRICTING THE USE OF LAND WITHIN 150 FEET OF OUTSIDE FENCES OR BOUNDARIES OF EXISTING GAS WELL PRODUCTION SITES AND AMENDING SECTION 104.6(0) LIMITING THE REQUIREMENT FOR EASEMENTS TO BE OBTAINED AS A CONDITION OF GAS WELL PERMITS TO THOSE SITES WHERE A PERMIT WAS GRANTED ON OR BEFORE AUGUST 5, 2008; PROVIDING A PENALTY; PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING A CUMULATIVE CLAUSE; AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

The Local Project Advance Funding Agreement (LPAFA) between the City and TxDOT was executed on December 9, 1996. The construction plans are 100% complete and have been submitted to the TxDOT for final review and approval. This project, originally funded through the ISTEA program, has recently been approved for funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). In order to allow the use of ARRA funds, an amendment to the current LPAFA with TxDOT is necessary. The amendment recognizes an ARRA requirement which allows the U.S. Comptroller General and its representatives the authority to examine any records or interview any employee of the contractor, their subcontractors or the State or local agency. The ARRA also requires that the contractor and subcontractors report monthly employment information. TxDOT requires the execution of this amendment to the LPAFA prior to authorizing the City to issue bids for the construction of the trail. Once TxDOT approves the construction documents and all of the necessary easement documents for the trail are executed, bids will be issued for the construction of the project.

Nothing in the section previously mentioned shall be interpreted to limit or restrict in any way the existing authority of the Comptroller General. In accordance with Section 1515(x) of the ARRA, with respect to each contract or grant awarded using covered funds, any representative of an appropriate inspector general appointed under Section 3 or 8G of the Inspector General Act of 1978 (5 U.S.C.

The year-end report of the Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) as submitted by Olivia Sandoval, Outgoing Chair of the Youth Advisory Committee, is attached for your review. Olivia Sandoval will be in attendance to present the report to the City Council. Recommendation: Accept the Youth Advisory Committee's year-end report to the City Council. Report of Youth Advisory Committee 2008-2009 To City Council of North Richland Hills The Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) has completed its eleventh year of successful accomplishments. It has worked well as a committee to achieve its goals and objectives for the 2008-2009 year. This year, the Youth Advisory Committee continued to work to become more involved with our local government. Several city representatives spoke to YAC about various city functions throughout the year. Jason Moore and Joe Pack discussed the process behind the Grand Avenue Park Plaza design. Mark Mills explained the City's budget and why the City has a capital improvement program. Mary Peters talked about media relations and received feedback on popular social media sites. Rick Drake answered questions about the Police Department. Eric Wilhite discussed the proposed Transit Orientated Development districts. Chris Swartz and YAC talked about the popularity of beach volleyball. Heather Hollinsworth informed YAC about Teen Court. And, members of YAC got to tour Fire Station #4. YAC members also volunteered at Hoot `N Howl and Night of Holiday Magic this fall, and Easter in the Park and Sounds of Spring during the spring semester. Volunteering at community events has become a tradition for the Youth Advisory Committee. Overall, the Youth Advisory Committee feels that the 2008-2009 year has been another great year and looks forward to success in the coming years. CITY OF NORTH R/CHLAND HILLS Department: Information Services Presented by.: LKoonce/KSpooner Council Meeting Date: 7-13-2009 Agenda No. F.4 Subject: PU 2009-026 Authorize the Purchase of Replacement Cisco Network and Telephone Equipment from Qwest Communications in the Amount of $693,042.80. In the approved 2008-2009 capital projects budget, funds were appropriated to replace the existing network (6 years old) and telephone equipment (10 years old) with modern Cisco network and IP telephone equipment. Both systems have exceeded the vendors end of life process and the City is currently having to rely on refurbished parts or parts purchased through a private party that have no warranties or guarantees. At the January 14, 2008 City Council meeting, Council approved Cisco Systems as the City's standard network and telephone equipment with the purchase of equipment for the Library. This continued City Council's goal of standardizing technology solutions. The equipment purchased for the Library set the foundation for the remaining 20 City sites' equipment to be replaced. The City will realize several significant advantages with the implementation of Cisco's network and telephone equipment in all facilities. First and foremost, we will reduce the budgeted maintenance costs of the systems by an estimated $40,000 annually for the first three years the system is in use for an estimated savings of $120,000. Additionally, we will realize savings on all future wiring projects, such as the new Recreation Center, due to the use of a single network connection for the telephone and computer network devices where currently we use one network connection per device. We will also see savings in training costs because training is readily available in the DFW area. Training on our current network system is available only out of state, if at all. In addition to dollar savings to be achieved by replacement of the network and phone systems, we would realize improved stability and reliability for the backbone of the majority of the City computer systems. Currently stability and reliability are an issue due to availability of parts and the age of the equipment in use. Finally, there are many additions in functionality on both the computing and telephone desktop systems allowing them to better manage time and customer service. In January 2009, Information Services staff began working with Cisco engineers to define the equipment needed to accomplish the complete replacement of the City's current netwflrk, telephone and voicemail systems. This design phase included complete inventories of all facilities currently on the City's network and the two Senior Centers which are not currently on the network. The design phase resulted in a very detailed list of equipment and services for vendors to bid. Staff solicited five (5) Cisco Certified Resellers that participate in the State of Texas Department of Information Resource (DIR) cooperative purchasing program. By participating in the DIR cooperative purchasing program the City meets all State competitive bidding requirements for this purchase. The City received four (4) offers from Calence, INX, Inc., Qwest Communications, and Flair Data Systems, Inc. AT&T chose not to provide an offer. Staff evaluated the offers and sent out Best and Final Offers to the two lowest offerings, Qwest and INX. They are as follows: INX, Inc. $757,635.92 Qwest Communications $693,042.80 If Council approves this purchase, materials will be ordered immediately and work should begin in four to six weeks. It is estimated the project should be complete early next fiscal year. Recommendation: Authorize the purchase of replacement Cisco network and telephone equipment from Qwest Communications in the amount of $693,042.80. Qwest -- ~,.:, ,. t~...r.

Staff recommended a commercial loan as the best alternative. City Council gave direction for management and staff to pursue a commercial loan in conjunction with the purchase of the property. As a result, the City requested quotes for a commercial loan from eight banks including American National Bank of Texas, Bank of America, Bank of Texas, Compass Bank, Frost Bank, J.P. Morgan Chase, Liberty Bank and Wells Fargo Bank. A five-year loan was requested with the ability to pay off early with no penalty. The City also requested the ability to expand the loan to an amount not to exceed two million dollars. The City also requested the alternative of placing a certificate of deposit with the selected institution to minimize initial cash outlay and lower net cost of borrowing. American National Bank of Texas and Liberty Bank submitted quotes based on the terms and conditions requested by the City. Both banks are located within the City limits of North Richland Hills. Liberty Bank. successfully negotiated the best contract for the City of North Richland Hills. Their offer includes afive-year fixed rate loan of 3.75% which is comparable to the tax-exempt certificate of obligation market at this time. They have offered the expandability and flexibility the City requires. They have ensured that the loan will be completed by the required closing date on the property of August 14th. Liberty Bank is a solid local bank with an outstanding reputation in our community.

Kudos Korner Every Council Meeting, we spotlight our employees for the great things they do. Ashley Holloway, Lifeguard, NRH20 A couple e-mailed to express their grateful appreciation to Ashley Holloway for her quick response at ~ NRH20. The couple had been playing with their grandchildren at the Beachside Bay attraction. When the grandfather turned to get out of the pool, the youngest grandchild jumped in one more time and the water was too deep for him. Ashley jumped in quickly and lifted the child to safety. Her actions were so quick and professional, that the child did not realize how serious the situation was. The family is thankful that the City provides staff that is trained to act so quickly in a situation that could have ended badly.
