b. Anna Community Development Corporation bond rating upgrade to Aa3.
(Director of Economic Development Joey Grisham)
Staff reported on the recent upgrade to the bond rating for the CDC/EDC. The
Anna Community Development Corporation has received an upgraded sales tax
rating from Moody's Investors Service. The CDC earned a rating of Aa3 from A2.
This is a "two-step" upgrade. Moody's recognizes our strong growing economy,
economic expansion, demand for residential housing and professional staff. Our
finances are healthy because of decisions by our Board and the hard work and
innovation by Anna neighbors and businesses that are driving our strong
economy. The CDC has been and remains committed to attracting unique
projects that enhance the quality of life, attract new jobs for Anna neighbors, and
bring new tax revenue to the City. Moody's said the upgraded rating to Aa3
reflects the strength of the City's economy, as well as the strong debt service
coverage and healthy revenue growth despite the ongoing pandemic,
demonstrating the resiliency of the rapidly growing revenue base.

Approve a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a purchase order
for street maintenance repair for County Road 419 in the City of Anna. (Director
of Public Works Greg Peters, P.E.)
5
The City has a Street Maintenance Sales Tax program whereby a quarter cent
portion of the sales tax paid on transactions in the City is dedicated to funding
street maintenance projects. As the City continues to grow and expand in retail
and commerce, the annual budget for street maintenance projects will increase,
allowing the City to perform more major maintenance projects on our streets.
The City uzes an interlocal agreement with Collin County to receive competitive
pricing for street maintenance work by WOPAC Construction, Incorporated.
WOPAC will be mobilizing soon to begin work on both Foster Crossing and
Taylor Boulevard, which the City Council approved earlier this year. While they
are working in Anna, staff is also seeking to have them complete a major repair
of County Road 419.
There is a section of County Road 419, just north of County Road 421, which is
located completely within the City of Anna and is subject to heavy truck traffic
from industrial vehicles. The road has complete base failure and is becoming
impassable for passenger vehicles. The proposed scope includes cement
stabilization and re -mixing of base to a depth of 94ches in order to provide a
heavy duty road base. The base will then be topped with asphalt to provide a
travel surface.
Staff will be returning to the City Council with additional street maintenance
projects for approval shortly after the first of the year, once Taylor Boulevard,
Foster Crossing, and County Road 419 are completed.
The project cost is $73,461.25 and will be paid from Street Maintenance Tax
funds.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ANNA, TEXAS AUTHORIZING THE CITY
MANAGER TO EXECUTE PURCHASE ORDERS FOR THE REHABILITATION
OF COUNTY ROAD 419 TO WOPAC CONSTRUCTION, INCORPORATED IN
THE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED SEVENTY-THREE THOUSAND FOUR
HUNDRED SIXTY-ONE DOLLARS AND TWENTY FIVE CENTS ($73,461.25);
AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
k. Approve a Resolution for an Agreement for Police, Fire, and Public Works
services with the Greater Anna Chamber of Commerce for the Anna Christmas
Parade (Neighborhood Services Director Marc Marchand)
At the October 26, 2021, City Council meeting, the City Council approved a
Resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with TxDOT
for the temporary road closure of State Highway 5 to allow the Greater Anna
Chamber of Commerce to proceed with their Christmas Parade on December 11.
The agreement before the City Council is to provide police, fire, and public works
services to the Chamber of Commerce for the Christmas Parade event. As the
parade route dictates the temporary road closure of Highway 5, the City will be
providing first responder services to contribute to the safety and well-being of
those in attendance. The agreement with the Chamber of Commerce holds the
City and its officials harmless.
The estimated financial impact of providing first responder services is $3,500.

7. Items For Individual Consideration.
a. Consider/Discuss/Action on a Resolution regarding the Jurado Estates, Block A,
Lots 1 & 2, Final Plat. (Director of Development Services Ross Altobelli)
Two lots on 3.9±acres located on the north side of Twin Creeks Circle, 385± feet
west of Gleason Lane. Zoned: Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ).
The purpose for the Final Plat is to dedicate lot and block boundaries, and
easements necessary for future development.
The applicant is requesting a waiver from the 40-foot minimum frontage on a
public street requirement in Subsection 9.02.087(b) of the Subdivision
Regulations. The applicant is providing 40 feet along the street for Lot 2; however,
this plat would be creating a flag lot that narrows to 22 feet. The subdivision
regulations recommends that irregular shaped lots, such as a flag lot, be avoided
but only prohibits such lot if it "...will not be suitable or desirable for the purpose
intended, which is an obvious attempt to circumvent the purpose and intent of lot
configuration or lot width minimums, or which is so oddly shaped as to create a
hindrance to the logical lot layout of surrounding properties." Since the
regulations recommends avoiding irregularly shaped lots, it does not specify that
the width of a flag lot should be maintained or be wider than the width at the street
frontage to the buildable area of the lot, however, it is a typical practice which is
why the applicant is requesting the waiver. Lot 1 has already been developed
with a septic tank and there are state/county requirements for the distance of
septic from a property line that must be maintained.
With exception to this portion of Lot 2, each lot exceeds all other
Subdivision Regulations for the lot area regulations (exceeds a minimum area of
one acre; lot depth of 100 feet; and lot width of 40 feet). For these reasons, staff
is in support.
The Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval per staff
recommendation.

ESTATES, BLOCK A, LOTS 1 & 2, FINAL PLAT.

b. Conduct a Public Hearing to consider public comments regarding establishing a
City of Anna Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Program. (Director of
Economic Development Joey Grisham),
On October 26, 2021, the City Council approved a Resolution of Intent to
Establish a Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Program and set the
Public Hearing date.

There were no comments from the public.
Mayor Pike closed the Public Hearing at 7:49 PM.
c. Consider/Discuss/Action on a Resolution to Establish a City of Anna Property
Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Program. (Director of Economic Development
Joey Grisham)
On October 26, 2021, the City Council approved a Resolution of Intent to
Establish a Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Program. The Resolution
before the City Council is to establish a PACE Program,
On October 5, 2021, the Economic Development Department was asked by a
representative of Anna Villages to consider adopting a City of Anna Texas
Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) program. This voluntary program was
approved by State legislation (Chapter 399 of the Local Government Code) and
is established by local governments to facilitate the use of private capital to
finance water conservation and energy efficiency projects to eligible commercial,
multifamily, nonprofit, and industrial property owners.
There is no financial liability to the City. Property owners choose a private sector
capital provider and voluntarily request that the City place a senior lien on the
property for the total cost of the project. The owner commits to the City that they
will pay the assessment installments and the voluntary land -secured assessment
is paid off over time. The energy and/or water savings are structured to exceed
the cost of the assessment, so projects are cash flow positive. The assessment
is tied to the property so the repayment obligation transfers to the next property
owner if the property is sold. If the property owner fails to pay, the statute says
the local government collects the payment in the same process as back taxes,
but this has not happened in over 130 programs throughout the State of Texas.
There is no additional staff needed as the City would adopt a professional
services agreement for a third -party to administer the program.
Existing Economic Development staff would manage the agreement.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ANNA, TEXAS ESTABLISHING A
PROGRAM UNDER THE TEXAS PROPERTY ASSESSED CLEAN ENERGY
("PACE") ACT OF 2013 FOR THE CITY OF ANNA, AS PROVIDED BY TEXAS

Attorney. (Director of Economic Development Joey Grisham)

h. Consider/Discuss/Action on a Resolution entering into a professional services
agreement with New Line Skateparks and authorizing the City Manager to
execute the contract. (Director of Neighborhood Services Marc Marchand)
The skatepark project will be located on the east side of Slayter Creek Park along
the channel that runs between the park and the Anna Middle School stadium.
The project budget is $1.5 million funded by the 2021 Bond Program. The
consultant selected to design the skatepark is New Line Skateparks.
New Line Skateparks is an internationally renowned full -service municipal
skatepark design team. Out of Toronto, Ontario, they have over 20 years of
concrete skatepark development experience. Though their skateparks have been
built all over North America, local projects include the Northeast Community
skatepark in Frisco, Vandergriff Skatepark in Arlington, Roanoke Skatepark and
McKinney Skatepark. They were selected based on the quality and success of
their previous projects.
City Council discussed the current needs of the City and cost of the skatepark.
City Council discussion ensued and the consensus was to postpone the project
at this time.

Miller seconded. Motion carried 6-1. Council Member Atchley opposed.
Consider/Discuss/Action on approval of a Resolution authorizing the
City Manager to execute a Subdivision Improvement Agreement with
Anna Independent School District for Sherley Elementary School in a form
approved by the City Attorney. (Director of Public Works Greg Peters, P.E.)
Anna ISD is constructing a new elementary school at the southeast corner of
County Road 425 and FM 2862. Sherley Elementary School will serve to educate
students who reside in the neighborhoods north of FM 455 and east of SH 5.
The project requires the extension of sanitary sewer and water mains in order to
provide the school facility with City utilities. The City is seeking to partner with
Anna ISD to construct larger sized mains and extend the mains further, in an
effort to increase the ability of the larger area to develop. The engineering plans
for the project were prepared in-house by the Public Works Department, which
saved approximately $150,000 in design fees.
The proposed 12-inch water main will extend all the way to Rosamond Parkway,
just east of SH 5. The proposed sewer main will extend along the route, and
11
connect to the existing Sweetwater sewer lift station. However, the sewer main
is designed to work with a future regional sewer lift station which will be
constructed south of the existing Sweetwater Crossing sewer lift station. This
future project will allow the City to abandon the lift station in the
Sweetwater Crossing subdivision and also abandon the existing sewer force
main which is currently located in the rear yards of some homes in the
neighborhood.
As designed, the project will benefit the new elementary school,
future development in the area, and neighbors who live in Sweetwater Crossing
(when the sewer lift station in their neighborhood is abandoned).
The total cost of the public improvements is $1,329,864, which includes the
construction of a 12-inch water main and a 15-inch sanitary sewer main. The
funding will come from Water and Sanitary Sewer Impact Fees, which are paid
to the City by developers of new developments in the City. The fund balance used
to pay for the improvements will be replenished by development in the area which
is currently in the early planning stages. This is consistent with the City Council's
Strategic Plan goal of growth paying for growth.

j. Consider/Discuss/Action on the creation of the Anna Library Advisory Task Force
(Director of Public Works Greg Peters, P.E.)
The $22 million proposition, approved by voters on May 1, 2021, includes the
design and construction of a library with multipurpose recreation, meeting, and
classroom space. The facility will be designed with public input and the goals of
the recently adopted Comprehensive Plan. The facility will be located on the
northeast corner of the municipal campus complex on State Highway 5 / North
Powell Parkway.
The City is working on the development of a strong team to plan, manage, design,
and construct this new public facility. Anna Neighbors deserve an award -winning
library facility and putting together a strong team is essential to meeting that goal.
Last month, the City Council approved a professional services agreement with
Project Advocates to provide pre -design due diligence services for the City,
including the development of a detailed cost plan and project charter for the
project.
This agenda item will create a task force of community members who will work
