17 BProioarrdity Ch Pariroje Recmarts 2017ks Mobilizing the Truth

With a diverse set of mobility needs to serve, tolling is merely one piece of the funding puzzle; a tool by which more timely infrastructure expansion is made possible. Tolling garners the most public attention, and with that attention comes some common misconceptions.

We’d like to take the opportunity to provide some clarity and separate fact from fiction:

Myth: Tolling a road is a double tax on drivers.

Truth: Taxes are mandatory. Tolls are a user fee that drivers pay when they make the choice to drive on toll roads. Courts have long ago established the distinction between tolls and taxes.

Myth: We’ve already paid for the roads.

Truth: Gas taxes are not enough to meet the need for improvements on existing and future corridors, and the cost of road maintenance over time is greater than the initial cost of building the road.

Myth: There is plenty of money from Propositions 1 and 7 to pay for new roads.

Truth: While it’s a great tool in the funding toolbox, the new money authorized by the Texas Legislature through Propositions 1 and 7 will not cover the great statewide funding need Texas has for mobility improvements.

Until the legislature allocates sufficient public funding for all our infrastructure needs, toll financing helps to meet the evolving mobility demands of the traveling public.

CITY OF TYLER CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION

Agenda Number: Z-1

Date: April 11, 2018

Subject: Z18-016 JOSHUA NEAVES (2323 HAVERHILL DRIVE) Request that the City Council consider approving a zone change from “R-MF”, Multi-Family Residential District to “R-1A”, Single-Family Residential District.

Page: 1 of 2

Item Reference:

The applicant is requesting a zone change from “R-MF”, Multi-Family Residential District to “R-1A”, Single-Family Residential District on Lot 9 of NCB 1445-C, one lot containing approximately 0.31 acres of land located north of the northwest intersection of McDonald Road and Haverhill Drive (2323 Haverhill Drive). The applicant is requesting the zone change to bring the existing use into conformance with the Unified Development Code (UDC).

According to the UDC, the “R-1A”, Single-Family Residential District is primarily intended to accommodate development of detached, single-family housing on large lots. The minimum lot area is 9,000 square feet and the maximum lot coverage is 50 percent. The maximum building height allowed is 42 feet. Setback requirements are 25 feet in the front and rear. The side yard setback is seven-and-a-half feet for interior lots and 12 feet for corner lots. Properties with a residential designation are subject to UDC Development Standards such as landscaping and tree preservation, bufferyards, and sign regulations.

Adjacent properties to the north, south and west are zoned “R-MF”, Multi-Family Residential District. The adjacent properties to the east are zoned “PMF”, Planned Multi-Family Residential District and "R-1D", Single-Family Detached and Attached Residential District. The adjacent properties to the west and south are currently developed as an apartment complex. The adjacent property to the north is currently developed as a single-family residence and the adjacent properties to the east consist of undeveloped land and single-family residences.

The request is consistent with the Tyler 1st Future Land Use Guide (FLUG), which identifies this property as Single-Family Medium/Low Density.

The applicant is requesting the zone change to allow the existing use, a single-family residence, to come into conformance with the UDC as part of a real estate transaction. Within the current “R-MF” zoning district, a single-family residence is not a permitted use. The current use as a single-family residence is considered a legal non-conforming use, which may be allowed to continue even though the use does not comply with the UDC. A single-family residence is a permitted by-right use in the “R-1A”, Single-Family Residential District.

Agenda Number: Z-1

Page: 2 of 2

On April 3, 2018, the Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing for this request.

As of Thursday March 29, 2018, of the six notices mailed, one notice was returned in favor and none were returned in opposition to the request.

All other departments have reviewed the application and anticipate no significant impact on services or facilities by the proposed rezoning request.

RECOMMENDATION:

The Planning and Zoning Commission by a 7-0 vote recommends a zone change from “R-MF”, Multi-Family Residential District to “R-1A”, Single-Family Residential District.

Agenda Number: M-1

Date: April 11, 2018

Subject: Request that the City Council consider authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Adams Engineering for engineering services related to the Keaton Drainage Study (West Mud Creek Tributary C1.1) and the Stagecoach Drainage Study in the amount of $129,190.00.

Item Reference: M-1, 7/26/2017; P-1, 6/22/2016

This study is two of six identified in the 2016 Drainage Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Strategy. The Engineering Department has received a proposal in the amount of $129,190.00 from Adams Engineering to perform both studies. Each study will include a survey of open channels and closed systems, hydrologic and hydraulic modeling and analysis, preparation of mitigation alternatives to flooding and erosion, and an engineer’s opinion of cost for each.

Keaton Drainage Study – This open channel and closed system traversing the Briarwood Addition and Southern Oaks Subdivision, generally extending from Cameron Avenue south to Shepherd Lane. Based on staff observations and feedback from a neighborhood meeting there is extensive interest in improving flood control, erosion, and failed channel structures. The purpose of this study is to identify the true extent of hazards and the most cost effective ways to mitigate.

Stagecoach Drainage Study – This system is a combination of open and closed drainage system traversing the Kingspark Addition, generally extending from Shiloh Road south before discharging into West Mud Creek Tributary B just south of Regency Lane. During heavy rainfall water leaves the drainage system and floods several homes. The purpose of this study is to identify the true extent of flood risk and the most viable mitigation options for flooding and failed structures.

FUNDING: Half Cent Sales Tax Fund

RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Adams Engineering for engineering services related to the Keaton Drainage Study (West Mud Creek Tributary C1.1) and the Stagecoach Drainage Study in the amount of $129,190.00.

CITY OF TYLER CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION

Agenda Number: M-4

Date: April 11, 2018

Subject: Request that the City Council consider authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement through the BuyBoard with Insituform Technologies, LLC, in the amount of $1,997,551.25 for sanitary sewer system cleaning and inspection services.

Page: 1 of 2

Item Reference:

On April 10, 2017, Tyler Water Utilities (TWU) entered into a Consent Decree with the Environmental Protection Agency in order to improve the operation and maintenance of the City’s wastewater collection system. One of the requirements of the Consent Decree is to clean and inspect every pipe segment in the collection system as part of a sewer system condition assessment, which will help identify pipes that need to be repaired or replaced due to breaks or other defects. TWU must clean a minimum of 100 miles (or 528,000 linear feet) and inspect a minimum of 75 miles (or 396,000 linear feet) every year.

TWU identified 542,903 linear feet of sewer mains in the north-central, downtown area of the City to be cleaned during this second year. This area was selected because it appears to show a greater amount of infiltration and inflow into the system, therefore, identifying needed repairs in these areas will reduce the amount of flow to the treatment plants and reduce the possibility of future overflows in the areas. TWU was able to obtain prices for sewer cleaning and television (TV) inspection services through the BuyBoard from Insituform Technologies, LLC. Attached for review is a copy of the agreement with Insituform, as well as a location map of the area to be cleaned and inspected.

Insituform completed approximately 267,372 linear feet (51 miles) of gravity main cleaning and 239,243 linear feet (45 miles) of gravity main CCTV inspection in 2017. Their assistance with cleaning and inspection enabled City of Tyler crews to concentrate on repairs needed to existing sewer mains and other maintenance responsibilities.

RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement through the BuyBoard with Insituform Technologies, LLC, in the amount of $1,997,551.25 for sanitary sewer system cleaning and inspection services.

CITY OF TYLER CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION

Agenda Number: C-A-1

Date: April 11, 2018

Subject: Request that the City Council consider authorizing the City Manager to approve the upgrade of hardware and software for an intrusion prevention system in the amount of $88,458.66 for new hardware and a one year support for intrusion prevention software.

Page: 1 of 1

Item Reference: Quote from SHI Government Solutions

The City has been using hardware and software for intrusion prevention since February 2014 when we purchased our first hardware. In fiscal year 2015, we purchased a three year renewal contract for maintenance.

These current intrusion detection devices are at their end of life and are no longer supported. This hardware and software is used to keep our City free of any hackers, critical spamming and crippling viruses from many countries. Intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS), are network security appliances that monitor network activities for malicious activity. IDPS are used to detect anomalies with the aim of catching hackers before they do real damage to our network. Intrusion prevention hardware and software successfully blocked an average of over 10,000 attacks on City servers or accounts per day in 2017, which represents over 3.65 million blocked attacks during the year.

To continue to provide the City with the best security prevention intrusion hardware, we are requesting that the unsupported devices be upgraded and replaced.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to approve the upgrade of hardware and software for an intrusion prevention system in the amount of $88,458.66 for new hardware and a one year support for intrusion prevention software.

CITY OF TYLER CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION

Agenda Number: C-A-2

Date: April 11, 2018

Subject: Request that the City Council consider authorizing the City Manager to approve purchasing goods through U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance whereby the City of Tyler can take full advantage of purchasing any and all items available through this cooperative. Also, request that the City Council consider authorizing the City Manager to purchase solid waste residential carts and parts from Rehrig Pacific through the U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance Contract from May 2018 to May 2019.

Page: 1 of 2

Item Reference:

The State of Texas Local Government Code “Subchapter F. Cooperative Purchasing Program” provides a mechanism for cities to contract with vendors for the purchase of materials, supplies, services and/or equipment as an alternative to a lengthy sealed bid process. The City of Tyler has been participating in the usage of the various cooperative agreements and boards. The City is able to purchase specifically designated items through the pricing obtained by the cooperatives. This arrangement has benefited the City in several ways:

1. Lower costs for items through combined purchases 2. Increased convenience by requiring less staff time for using the prices already available rather than having to go through the bidding process 3. Receiving rebates at the end of the year

The contracts/pricing can be used to satisfy state law bidding requirements in the same manner as purchasing through the state price lists or other governmental entity lists that are available. Staff can compare the prices available and make recommendations that best suit the City’s needs. Some additional cooperatives utilized by the City of Tyler are as follows: FirstChoice, HGAC, TCPN, TIPS, TXMAS, BuyBoard, etc.

Staff recommends participation in the U.S. Communities Government Purchasing Alliance, which will allow staff to take advantage of cost savings in a more efficient and timely way. Expected purchases from Rehrig Pacific through this purchasing cooperative for the period from May 2018 to May 2019 are $100,000.
