conflict of interest issues pertaining to the Rufe
Snow projects. Mayor Pro Tem Metts will also
preside during regular meeting when Council

IR 2002-142 Mr. Norwood advised that the Citizens Capital
DISCUSS WORK Improvements Study Committee would be
SESSION DATES presenting their findings and recommendations
TO BEGIN REVIEW to the Council during the regular meeting. Staff
OF BOND is recommending that Council set a work
COMMITTEE session date to discuss and review the
PROPOSALS FOR recommended projects. The consensus of the
CAPITAL Council was to set a work session to review the
IMPROVEMENTS Bond Committee proposals 4:00 p.m. to 6:00
p.m. on November 11, prior to the Pre-Council
meeting. S.Norwood
IR 2002-143 The City Secretary advised that the second
DISCUSS Council meeting in December is on December
DECEMBER 23, 23 and Council may want to consider canceling
2002 CITY and possibly scheduling a special meeting for
COUNCIL MEETING December 16. If Staff should determine later
that the December 16 meeting is not needed,
then it would not be held. The consensus of
Council was to cancel the December 23
meeting, set a special meeting for December 16
and if determined by staff that the special
meeting is not needed, then it will not be held. P.Hutson
IR 2002-144 Mr. Patrick Hills briefly summarized the project
UPDA TE ON activities and introduced Ms. Ruth Ann
COMPENSATION Edwards, Waters Consulting Group. Ms.
AND Edwards provided a PowerPoint presentation
CLASSIFICA TION that gave an overview of the project. Council
STUDY questioned and discussed the civil service and
non-civil service structure and the relation of the
study to the civil service structure. Ms. Edwards
explained that the Police and Fire positions are
not being reevaluated because they already
have a good hierarchy of jobs in place. Ms.
Edwards explained that market data will be
collected for the Police and Fire positions to
establish pay ranges. A recommendation will be
placed on the pay structures to make sure they
Pre Council Minutes
October 28, 2002
Page 3
are market competitive. All other employees are
going though a job evaluation process to
establish a good hierarchy of jobs and pay
grades. There was some discussion on the
process of surveying other cities for salary
comparisons. Councilman Welch expressed a
concern with employees not taking responsibility
for problems outside their normal duties and
questioned if it could be incorporated into the
job descriptions. Ms. Edwards explained it can
be addressed two ways in the compensation
system - 1) job descriptions can indicate there
is an empowerment to employees to identify
issues and pass along to appropriate areas and
2) address in performance review process. Ms.
Edwards advised that Councilman Welch's
concern can be included as part of the review
process being undertaken now and they can
ensure that the job descriptions are broad
enough to address his concern. There was a
brief discussion on job descriptions being
generic. Ms. Edwards explained if the essential
functions are the same, the description will be
under one title. In instances where the essential
functions vary greatly from what other
employees are doing, then a new description
will be created for that individual. Ms. Edwards
advised the next step is to complete the
structure development by merging market and
job evaluations, finalize the job descriptions and
come back to Council with options for
implementation. Council was advised they
would be receiving a questionnaire to provide
the consultant with their feedback and concerns
to help finalize the project. P.Hillis
IR 2002-146 Mr. Mike Curtis explained the request from the
DISCUSSION OF Shady Oaks Homeowners Association to limit
REQUEST FROM public access by closing Ivy Lane and installing
SHADY OAKS a controlled access gate. Council discussed the
HOMEOWNERS traffic cut-through issue and that the right-of-way
ASSOCIATION TO for the addition was approved so that there
LIMIT PUBLIC would be more than one entrance in to the
ACCESS - IVY neighborhood. Mr. Curtis advised that there
LANE would continue to be two entrances, but that
one entrance would not be a public entrance. It
would be gated. Mr. Curtis advised that the City
Pre Council Minutes
October 28, 2002
Page 4
Attorney brought up the issue of opening up the
floodgates for requests to close streets and that
Staff is seeking direction from Council on
whether to bring the item to Council for
consideration. Council discussed placing a time
limit on the closing and revisiting the issue in
five years to see if the traffic problem had been
alleviated. There was discussion on the
maintenance of the closed street and ensuring a
mechanism was put in place so that the street
would continue to be maintained 20 years from
now. Council concurred that they would like for
Staff to bring back a plan to close Ivy Lane with
a joint street use agreement that would also
outline the maintenance to be tied to the
Homeowners Association. The City's
consideration for the use of the street would be
for the Homeowners Association to assume the
maintenance. The initial agreement would be
for a set period of time (five years) with the
possibility of extending the agreement after five
years if the Homeowners Association
implemented everything in accordance with the
agreement. Staff will obtain additional
information from the Homeowners Association
and will bring item back to Council for formal
consideration. M.Curtis
Mayor Trevino advised he would be abstaining
from discussion on next item. Mayor Trevino
left the Pre-Council meeting at 6:11 p.m.
IR 2002-145 RUFE Mayor Pro Tem Metts presided over the
SNOW DRIVE; meeting. Mr. Curtis briefed the Council on the
DECORA TIVE decorative traffic signals, streetlights, and other
STREET LIGHTS streetscape proposed for Rufe Snow and the
planned funding. Council was advised that the
understanding of Staff is that the street light
selected for North Tarrant Parkway will be the
same light used on major thoroughfares outlined
in the City Image Study. Staff is seeking
Council confirmation that it is their desire to use
the same light on Rufe Snow. Council
concurred that it is their desire to use the street
light selected for North Tarrant Parkway on Rufe
II Snow and major thoroughfares outlined in the
City Image Study. M.Curtis

PW 2002-15 APPROVE ENGINEERING AGREEMENT WITH KNOWLTON-ENGLlSH-
FLOWERS, INC. FOR CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION ON RUFE SNOW DRIVE
(IH 820 TO MID CITIES BLVD.) - RESOLUTION NO. 2002-086
APPROVED
Mr. Mike Curtis, Director of Public Works, informed council that contract approved on
August 28, 1995 was for the design of Rufe snow Drive (IH 820 to Mid-Cities
Boulevard). The contract did not include any engineering that may be involved during
the construction phase of the project. The basis for this omission is that this was the
first ISTEA grant project for the city. City staff was not aware at the time that the Texas
Department of Transportation (TxDOT) relied on the design engineer for design
interpretations on minor field changes and shop drawing reviews. The City's definition
"construction administration" covers the issues. However, TxDOT does not have the
same definition for construction administration. Lastly, the engineer was unaware of
the additional engineering required by TxDOT during the construction phase.
Due to the difference in interpretation of construction responsibilities, the city will see
additional costs for field changes, supplemental agreements or additional work orders
that may become necessary subsequent to the award of the construction contract.
Since the agreement does not define the amount of engineering that TxDOT would
require for any plan changes and the number of plan sheets required to revise each
change, this would be an additional cost to the city. Staff has received a letter from
Mark Schluter, P.E., TxDOT Area Engineer reiterating TxDOT's position.
Mr. Curtis informed council that the agreement before council tonight includes the
approval of additional engineering that TxDOT is requiring from the City and the design
engineer during the remainder of the construction process. Also included is the design
work necessary to have the decorate traffic signal poles with the back lit street signs
included in the Rufe Snow widening project as a change order. Mr. Curtis advised
council that the fee for the engineering agreement would not exceed $150,100. Mr.
Curtis informed council that funds are available in the existing Rufe Snow Drive budget
to cover the cost for the additional required engineering.
