MEMORANDUM
taw TO: Billy Campbell, City Manager
FROM: Sharen Elam, Director of Finance Ext. 1713
SUBJECT: August 22, 2002 Budget Work Session Follow-up
There were several questions raised by City Council during the first budget work session. Below I
have outlined answers to each question raised during the work session and additional questions raised
subsequent to August 22. If additional information is required, I will be happy to assist with further
discussion/explanation.
1. Council Member Tom Stephen wanted to know the future cost associated with fully staffing
the DPS West Facility and the opening of the DPS North and East Facility.
West Facility would require hiring 6 additional firefighters. The first year of funding
would be $275,016 of personnel cost and would increase each additional year due
to funding the pay plan at 5% step increases each year and any increase in
annual health/dental/life premiums. Staff suggests fully staffing this facility in
fiscal year 2003-04.
North Facility would require hiring 25 additional DPS employees (21 firefighters, and
4 Public Safety Officers(PSO) build out staffing. The first year of finding would be
$1,234,732 of personnel cost and would increase each additional year due to
funding the pay plan at 5% step increases each year and any increase in annual
health/dental/life premiums. The Crime Control Capital Projects budget includes
funding for the construction of the North Facility with an anticipated opening date in
fiscal year 2004-05 (last quarter). A fire engine and a ladder truck would be required
for the North Facility with a cost of $400,000 and $800,000, respectively. We will
consider all financing options for the purchase of this equipment.
• East Facility would not require any additional personnel. We would move personnel
in the current East location (667 N. Carroll) to the new facility once construction was
completed. Crime Control Capital Projects budget includes funding for the
construction of the East with an anticipated opening date in fiscal year 2007-08 (last
quarter).
2. Council Member Ralph Evans suggested using winter month's consumption for sewer billing.
• As discussed during the budget work session, staff is currently working with the
consultant on the update of the water/wastewater rate study. Based on preliminary
drafts received on Tuesday from the consultant on winter -months averaging, we
could cover sewer cost (debt service, operations and maintenance) if we structure
the sewer rate the same as the existing water rate ($26.16 base rate and $3.00 per
1,000 gal) with a maximum volume charge of 10,000 gal. Staff will continue to
fly Campbell, City Manager

update the City Council on the progress of the rate study. We are anticipating
bring the final document to Council within the next 30 to 45 days.
3. Council Member Tom Stephen suggested funding the pay plan at last year's CPI (2.8%) rate
as opposed to the 5% step increase included in the proposed budget.
• The difference would result in a reduction of $61,600 in the proposed budget.
4. Council Member Tom Stephen asked the question what is the dollar value of the assets with
an average life of 20 years that 30 year bonds were issued to purchase the assets.
• After reviewing_ the property tax bonds outstanding, we issued $18 million 30 year
bonds for 20 year life assets.
5. Council Member Greg Standerfer wanted to know what the additional .01 allocated to debt
would yield.
• If Council chose to allocate the additional .01 to the debt service fund, the city
would have an additional debt borrowing capacity of $3.8 million (20 year bonds)
to assist with funding the capital improvement program. Based on the current
property tax allocation for debt service of .12242, the city could fund $7.8 million
(20 year bonds) of the capital improvement program. If you will recall fiscal year
1999-2000 the debt portion of the property tax rate was .13242. To balance the
general fund budget at the tax rate of .422, it was necessary to transfer .01 from the
debt tax rate to the general fund.
6. Council Member Carolyn Morris suggested that we continue the $1,000 membership fee to
Southlake Sister Cities but discontinue our practice of sponsoring a Southlake repersentive to
visit our Sister Cities.
• This would reduce the proposed budget by $2,300.
7. Council Member Tom Stephen suggested that staff examine the opportunity of a lease
purchase for the ambulance.
• We received an estimate on a five-year lease that would reduce the proposed
budget by $102,615. The annual lease payment would be $32,385 over the next
five years.
8. Council Member Rex Potter suggested eliminating food for meetings and reducing the budget
to only cover soft drinks and snacks (cookies, etc.).
• The proposed budget reduced this item by $20,000 (57%) from the Adopted
Budget for 2001-02. This could be a potential reduction of $5,000 to $8,000 from
the proposed budget.
.r 9. Council Member Rex Potter suggested removing the $300,000 for reimbursement to Cooper
& Stebbins from the FY 2001-02 budget and use the savings to assist with the proposed

Page 3 000 for Town Square's
budget shortage of funding. The proposed budget includes $325,
developer reimbursement. Council Member would prefer to ; start the reimbursement next
i fiscal year as opposed to FY 2001-02.
• This would increase FY 2001-02 roll forward fund balance by $300,000, therefore,
increasing funding (fund balance) to assist with FY 2002-03 proposed budget
funding requirements.
10. Council Member Rex Potter suggested reducing the legal service budget by $100,000 and
requiring staff to monitor/control legal expenses within budget.
• Staff has taken the following steps in order to increase efficiencies in the process
of requesting general legal services:
Block Appointments-CMO establishing "block" times with City Attorney's
i
Office to increase efficiency of billable attorney time;
Communication Channels -working with the City Attorney and the law firm
to identify and establish responsibility on particular issues, increasing
efficiency regarding billable time;
Departmental Accountability -insuring managerial accountability by breaking
ter► down general legal services on a departmental basis, reviewing budget status at
ib periodic intervals, and discussing procedural improvements;
Managing Requests for Legal Services -development of request system to
allow for planning of efficient Block Meetings with Attorneys, based upon
priority, and allowing for managerial review and approval of requests for legal
services;
Operational Review/Procedures-CMO tracking billable hours in order to
perform operational reviews in order to identify and implement efficiency
procedures;
Staff Authorization -each Department Director has identified in memorandum
staff authorized to request legal services, streamlining access and insuring
management review and approval.

11. Council Members Greg Standerfer and Tom Stephen wanted to know if the hiring of three
traffic officers paid for themselves.
With regards to this particular budget, it is important to understand the deployment
of police officers and that the vacant positions consist of patrol officers, not traffic
officers. Patrol officers are primarily responsible for patrolling of districts,
neighborhoods, businesses, etc. A patrol officer responds to all calls for service
and provides safety to the community. A traffic officer is primarily responsible for
the enforcement of vehicle laws, maintaining a presence in high vehicle areas, and
investigating traffic accidents.
Given the opportunity to add police officers, the greatest need remains within
patrol. As calls for service continue to increase, patrol officers are pulled from
their patrol function and committed to the call. Occasionally, we rely on officers
from the traffic section to fill in on patrol calls for service, taking them away from
their primary function. When they answer these calls, they handle the- call and
return to their traffic duties without being responsible for future activity in that
neighborhood. Meeting with complainants, solving neighborhood problems,
taking theft reports, responding to armed robberies, assaults, and many others are
all the responsibility of patrol. Police have the greatest impact on crime when they
are assigned to specific areas for long periods of time. Officers get to know the
neighborhoods, the problems and problem makers. That is the basis of
Community Policing and the model we are attempting to implement. Adding
traffic officers would increase the number of officers at perhaps lesser cost to the
city, but impacting the crime rate in the city and addressing our greatest need will
require the assignment of these officers to patrol.
12. Council Members Greg Standerfer and Tom Stephen if the hiring of police officers and
firefighters reduce the requested overtime amount.
• The total police overtime request is $129,832. Only $22,968 is anticipated
towards minimum staffing challenges. The remainder is anticipated to provide
security at "events" such as handling the traffic related to Texas Motor Speedway
functions, Holiday in the park, security at council and P&Z meetings, conducting
backgrounds, training, etc. Because of the timing and limited duration of these
events, it is much less expensive to utilize overtime than to hire enough officers to
always have enough on hand to work these events. The additional officers might
reduce the minimum staffing portion of the overtime budget slightly but the
amount would not come close to the $131,000 needed for the three officers.
The total fire service overtime request is $48,000. $33,600 is anticipated towards
minimum staffing. The remainder is anticipated to be used for training purposes.
The requested overtime amount is at a bare minimum based on the proposed part-
M' time firefighters requested to staff during peak hours as well as minimum staffing.
At this time the needed resources in firefighter staffing could not be made up by
hiring from the overtime line. The amount to fund the full time positions would
I
lly Campbell, City Manager
eptember 5, 2002
We 5
require $131,000 total dollars, overtime coupled with the part-time positions
equates to $124,000. Due to the $7,000 difference and the $14,400 needed
overtime monies for training the appropriate request would be to delay the
additional personnel until the economy improves.
RI Overtime requests, through the Department of Public Safety, are made after careful
determination of all anticipated costs to meeting minimum staffing and costs
related to service delivery outside of "regular duty".
Please let me know if additional explanation is required. Staff will continue to examine
any further options presented by City Council.
