Consider/Discuss/Action on an Ordinance Amending the FY 2019 Budget (Dana Thornhill) The proposed budget amendment includes funding for the following purposes: Utility Fund Sewer Department - The City has experienced torrential rainfall since the beginning of the fiscal year. With this comes inflow and infiltration of the rainwater into the sewer system. The Public Works Department is working diligently to evaluate the system and to minimize the impact. As a result of the rainfall, the City has been faced with escalating costs associated with the transportation and treatment costs paid to North Texas Water District. To assist with the increased costs, staff is recommending a budget adjustment to transfer $839,000 from the Water Development Agreement Fund, as well as increasing other revenues within the fund in the amount of $393,397. Total revenues to be increased are $1,232,397. The FY 2019 budget for treatment and transportation was budgeted at $1,200,000. This budget adjustment will increase the budget to $2,432,397. Staff will continue to evaluate additional ways to offset the increased costs. Community/ Development Fund On May 16, 2019, the Anna Community Development Corporation Board approved a Resolution amending the promotion expense line item by $20,313. This amendment will allow staff to more effectively promote the City and capture past funds allowable for promotions to be utilized. Economic Development Fund On May 16, 2019, the Anna Economic Development Corporation Board approved a Resolution amending the promotion expense line item by $18,213. This amendment will allow staff to more effectively promote the City and capture past funds allowable for promotions to be utilized.

A bill introduced in the Texas House of Representatives, HB 2439 (and its companion in the Senate, SB 1266), would prevent local governments from directly or indirectly prohibiting the use of specific building products or materials in the construction, renovation, maintenance or alteration of residential or commercial structures, whether by ordinance or regulation. HB 2439 would enable the use of any building material or product anywhere, as long as it has been approved for use by a national model building code that has been adopted by the local government. Cities and local governmental bodies across the State have passed resolutions formally declaring their opposition to HB 2439.

MOTION: Council Member Beazley moved approve subject to being sent to Senator and Governor. Mayor Pike seconded. Motion carried 7-0. 8. A) Conduct a public hearing to consider public comments regarding a request by John Rattan, the owner of the property. The property is currently zoned Restricted Commercial (C-1) and Thoroughfare Overlay District (THOR). The applicant requests to replace the existing Zoning with a Commercial Planned Development. The section of property is located on the Southwest corner of White St (FM 455) and Ferguson Pkwy. (Maurice Schwanke) B) Consider/Discuss/Action on an Ordinance approving the request by the applicant and owners of the property to replace the existing zoning with a new, Planned Development zoning. The proposed use for this site is a Chase Bank. The existing zoning on the property is "C-1" which allows for the bank use; however, the site is overlain with the Thoroughfare Overlay District which requires a front setback of 50 feet from the right-of-way of West White Street (F.M. 455). The Chase Bank developers are wanting to put their parking behind the building and have just landscaping between the building and the street. Therefore, they are proposing the attached "PD" with a front setback of 20 feet which would override the 50 foot requirement. Additionally, they are requesting the separation of driveways be a minimum of 100 feet instead of 150 feet and the use of El FS (Exterior Insulation Finishing System) over 15 feet above surface elevation. A concept plan is attached. The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the zoning request at their regularly scheduled meeting on June 3rd, 2019. Mayor Pike opened the public hearing at 8:04 p.m. No Comments. Mayor Pike closed the public hearing at 8:04 p.m. (SW Corner of White St and Ferguson Pkwy Zoning Change from Commercial C- 1 & Thoroughfare Overlay District to a Commercial Planned Development.)

These plans have been recommended by the Parks Board. Park credits available within Lakeview phases and West Crossing phases exceeds $1,000,000. This agreement will allow the City to have improvements earlier than if the City waits until all funds are in place. MOTION: Mayor Pike moved to table the item. Council Member Beazley seconded. Motion carried 7-0. 10. Consider/Discuss/Action on an Ordinance Amending the Fee Schedule relating to Building Permit Fees and Building Inspection Fees. (Ashley Stathatos) Staff is bringing new building permit and inspection fees to Council for consideration. The goals for doing so are to ensure compliance with recently adopted state legislation, provide funding to cover third party fee restructuring and increases beyond City control, as well as, initiate an internal business unit to provide timely permitting and cost containment going forward. Staff completed a market assessment to ensure Anna's fees remain competitive with neighboring cities while at the same time, they are high enough to cover costs associated with growth and development. The aim is to move beyond the current status quo and provide higher service levels to the development community. Staff aims to streamline building processes making it quick and easy to get permits in Anna, a much desired need of all builders and contractors. Additionally, at a future meeting, staff will present a comprehensive plan to transition to an in-house building department. An in-house building department is necessary to be able to sustain the city's growth.

Consider/Discuss/Act on a Resolution approving a Marketing Agreement with Utility Service Partners Private Label, Inc. (Jim Proce) At the February 26, 2019, City Council Work Session, the City Manager presented to the City Council the National League of Cities (NLC) Service Line Warranty Program administered by Utility Service Partners Private Label, Inc. The NLC Service Line Warranty Program provides an optional, proactive solution to a problem that is bound to strike our neighbors at some point in time. When private service lines break or leak, many homeowners call the city first and are often surprised and frustrated to learn that the city can't help. Educational marketing about homeowners' responsibility for service lines is a key component of the program. This program provides affordable repair plans backed by vetted, local -area contractors, keeping dollars in the local economy. At no cost to the city, the program offers affordable protection for in-home plumbing and external water and sewer lines that will cover the cost of repairing leaks, breaks and clogs. The program features generous coverage amounts, and there is never a service fee or deductible. There are no annual or lifetime limits. The Marketing Agreement before the Council grants Utility Services Partners Private Label, Inc. a non-exclusive license to use, only during the term of the agreement, the City's name and logo on letterhead, bills, and marketing materials to be sent to residential property owner regarding the NLC Service Line Warranty Program. The cost for the materials will solely be on Utility Services Partners and will be subject to the City's prior review and approval. The term of the agreement shall be for three years from the effective date. The agreement will automatically renew for an additional one-year term unless one of the parties give the other written notice at least ninety days prior to the end of the term. As a consideration for such license, Utility Service Partners will pay to the City a license fee set forth in Exhibit A of the agreement. The City Attorney has reviewed all of the agreement terms and has approved them for execution. MOTION: Council Member Reeves moved to approve. Council Member Tutson seconded. Motion failed 3-3. Beazley, Miller and Pike opposed. Council Member Toten was out of the room. 13. CLOSED SESSION (EXCEPTIONS) Under Tex.
