7.) Dr. Bill Dean, Chairman of the Lubbock Public Transit
Advisory Board, will appear to present report of
Private Enterprise Committee and to request passage of
resolution supporting transit legislation.
As part of the transit planning program, the City
Council created a temporary committee, the Transit
Private Enterprise Committee, to develop proposals for
financing public transit which would be less dependent
on the City's General Fund and Federal Operating
Assistance. (The resolution was passed on May 10,1984).
The TPEC, in performing its assignment, reached the
following recommendations on July 19, 1984 and
discussed their findings with the Transit Advisory

P.O. L-14149
Mr. Bill Dean appeared at City Council meeting and made
the following recommendations on behalf of the Transit
Advisory Board for Council consideration:
1. Priority One Recommendation: The City should
seek the use of limited sales tax revenue
dedicated for transportation purposes. This
would be similar to Senate Bill 12.
Implementation Strategy for #1: The City
should pursue the passing of State enabling
legislation for the mechanism. The City
should seek professional lobbying assistance
and support the legislation by resolution.
2. Priority Two Recommendation: The City should
seek an amendment to current State legisla-
tion which would enable Lubbock to create a
Transportation Authority supportable, at
local option, by limited sales tax revenue.
Implementation Strategy: The City should
pursue passing an amendment to current
legislation. The aid of professional
lobbyist should be obtained.
On September 25, 1984, the Transit Advisory Board
recommended that the City Council pass a resolution
which would implement the TPEC findings. Passing of the
resolution represents the first step in the develop-
ment of a funding source
Operating Assistance and

for public transit if Federal
City General Fund monies are
By having the State enabling legislation, the City
could, at its option, consider implementation of a
local sales tax'. Without the legislation, the option is
non-existent.
Upon having the law, the City could create the appro-
priate transit organization and call an election to
allow City voters to decide if they want a sales tax
for transit --the revenues could also be used, in part,
for street maintenance where transit vehicles travel.
Motion was made by Councilwoman Trejo, seconded by
Councilman Brown, to support passage of a resolution by
the Texas Municipal League at its November meeting
regarding State enabling legislation for transit
purposes. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0 Nays

(24.) Consider allocation of Community Development contin-
ency funds for completion of Lake# 6 Road project.
In 1980, the City Council approved and funded the con-
struction and lighting for the roadway along the south
side of Canyon Lake #6. The construction of the
roadway has been completed. The original budget for
the project was $242,500. The engineering and construc-
tion costs were $204,007. These costs were higher than
originally estimated due to several reasons: 1) the
time lapse between the original estimate and the
construction bid opening; 2) the state required an
archeological survey that was not budgeted; and, 3)
additional structural concrete was required to protect
the sewer main running into the Lake #6 area.
The remaining project budget of $22,016 is inadequate
to install the street lighting as originally planned.
Lubbock Power and Light has provided a cost estimate of
$50,000 to light approximately 4,957 feet along the new
street from Quirt Avenue.
It is recommended that $28,000 be allocated from the
Community Development Contingency Fund to complete the
Lake #6 project as originally planned. This allocation
will lower the Contingency Fund balance from $352,230
to $324,230.

AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING 20 MPH SCHOOL SPEED ZONES ON 78TH STREET AND
ELGIN AVENUE AT THE LOCATIONS HEREIN DESCRIBED BY AMENDING ORDINANCE 8225
TO ADD SUCH ZONES TO THE LIST THEREIN CONTAINED; AUTHORIZING PLACEMENT OF
SCHOOL SPEED LIMIT SIGN BEACONS AND OTHER SIGNS AND MARKERS AS NECESSARY;

ZONES HEREBY ESTABLISHED SHALL BE CUMULATIVE EXCEPT THOSE WITH WHICH IT
SPECIFICALLY CONFLICTS, AND PROVIDING A SAVINGS CLAUSE.
The Safety Committee of the Waters Elementary School
Parent Teacher's Association (PTA) has requested that
20 MPH school speed zone be established on 78th Street
and Elgin Avenue. The PTA feels that there is a need
for school speed limit sign beacons, and that the
reduced speed limit should be in effect when the
beacons are flashing.
677 October 11, 1984
It is proposed that school speed zones be instituted on
78th Street from just west of Flint Avenue to just east
of Elgin Avenue, and on Elgin Avenue from just north of
76th Street to just south of 78th Street. Both 78th
Street and Elgin Avenue are classified as collector
streets and are marked with school crosswalks. The
installation of school speed zones on 78th Street and
Elgin Avenue is consistent with the treatment of other
collector streets with crosswalks in the vicinity of
schools.
The cost of the beacon and sign installations is
estimated to be about $5,000, and will be covered by
funds remaining in the work order for the 82nd Street
school signals.

Pro Tem Carpenter, authorizing amendment to Ordinance
#8225 to provide for school speed zones adjacent to

Section 5, Block A, is a piece of land owned by the
City of Lubbock that lies north of Erskine, east of
Quirt and on both sides of the Loop. The portion that
lies north of the Loop is more commonly known as
the industrial park. The City of Lubbock owns a portion
of the mineral rights under that land and is now
in the process of leasing those mineral rights.
To our knowledge, there is no existing lease on our
mineral rights on this tract of land.
This item was a compliance item to follow the Natural
Resources Code of the State of Texas, which requires
that the City Council authorize the Staff to prepare
notice and to advertise that notice in accordance with
the National Resources Code.
The City has been working for some time trying to get
the property researched that we might get a lease on it
and Staff recommends approval of the resolution.

(30.) Consider an ordinance amending Section 8-4 of the Code

ORDINANCE NO. 8675
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 18-4 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE
CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS, WITH REGARD TO THE USE OF LOUDSPEAKERS AND AMPLI-
FIERS WITHIN THE CORPORATE LIMITS OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK; PROVIDING A
SAVINGS CLAUSE AND PROVIDING FOR PUBLICATION.
At the September 27, 1984 Work Session Meeting, the
City Council reviewed three alternatives for amending
or revising the current loudspeaker ordinance. By
consensus, the City Council decided to include Alterna-
tive "C" on the October 11 City Council agenda.
Alternative "C" does differ slightly from the one
presented during Work Session to delete the provision

The proposed ordinance will still make it unlawful for
any person to use loudspeakers or amplifiers without
first obtaining a permit based upon a finding that the
activity will not constitute a nuisance and a hazard to
public health, safety and welfare.
The suggested ordinance specifically outlines the
application procedures for obtaining a loudspeaker
permit, as follows:
1. The name, address and telephone number of the
applicant (including a telephone number where
he may be reached during the event).
2. The date, and time of the proposed loud-
speaker and amplifier use.
3. The location where such loudspeakers or
amplifiers are proposed to be used and a map
indicating the estimated area that the loud-
speakers will affect. As mentioned earlier,
this application procedure is different from
the one presented during the previous Work
Session. By consensus, Council wanted to
eliminate the limitation requirements of one
square mile and replace it with the appli-
cant indicating the area he thinks the
loudspeaker will affect.
4. Description of the event at which the loud-
speakers or amplifiers are to be used.
5. Written permission from the owner of
the property where the loudspeakers
or amplifiers are to be used.
6. A petition signed by the residents within one
block around the proposed location of the
loudspeakers or amplifiers, including each
signer's address and telephone number and
indicating the signer's approval or disap-
proval of the event. A space on the petition
shall also be provided for the applicant
indicating if a house is vacant or if the
resident could not be contacted.
A petition will be accompanied by a non-
refundable application fee of $15.
The proposed ordinance would allow the City staff to
issue loudspeaker permits in certain situations. The
staff issued permits would need to meet the following
guidelines:
1. If the loudspeaker or amplifier is to be
used between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00
p.m. on Sunday through Thursday or 10:00 a.m.
and 8:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
2. That the proposed loudspeaker or amplifier
use is within a commercial or manufacturing
zone.
3. If the application contains the required
application information.
This provision is an attempt to allow the Staff to
issue loudspeaker permits in situations that have the
least possibility of causing a nuisance to citizens.
The time requirements were set based on the fact that
Sunday through Thursday nights are nights prior to most
citizens' workdays, and longer hours for Friday and
Saturday nights because the majority of citizens do not
have to report to work on either day.
A loudspeaker applicant can appeal Staff's denial of a
permit or Police revocation, to the Permit License and
Appeal Board. If City Council does not grant a permit,
there is no provision for appeal of that decision.
City Council will consider all permits for any loud-
speaker request that do not fall within the above
mentioned guidelines.
The proposed ordinance also contain provisions that
will allow the Police Department flexibility in
responding to citizen complaints, and will establish
internal procedures for response to loudspeaker com-
plaints. The Police will personally investigate to
determine if a nuisance does actually exist and will

Finally, the suggested ordinance includes a provision
to exempt governmental subdivisions of the State of
Texas from obtaining a loudspeaker permit. This
provision was especially drafted for the Gazebo at the
County Courthouse, Texas Tech University, and the
Lubbock Independent School District.
Motion was made by Councilman Brown, seconded by
Councilwoman Trejo, passing on first reading Ordinance
#8675, as set out above. Motion carried: 7 Yeas; 0

directed the Staff to establish criteria and an
evaluation system for future I.D.B. applications.
The resolution which was prepared established indus-
trial applications, jobs created, payroll generated,
and tax base as primary weighted factors. Equity
investment, and training programs were also evaluated.
Overall, a perfect application could receive a total
score of 100 points and full funding. Lesser scores
could be eligible for either full or partial funding.

October 11, 1984 684
84-43A-684-1113
(18.) The City Council of the City of Lubbock, sitting as a
regulatory authority pursuant to the provisions of
-Article 1466e, V.A.C.S., shall resume a public hearing
entered upon at 11:30 a.m., August 23, 1984, to
consider the request of Energas Company for a change - in
gas rates charged to customers within the City of
Lubbock as expressed in its Statement of Intent filed
with the City of Lubbock on July 6, 1984.
As has been done in the past, all cities that are
served by Energas Corporation in their West Texas
system, have joined together to study the proposed
rate request. A committee made up of representatives
from each of those cities was formed, and then a
Steering Committee was selected from that group. On
Thursday, September 13, 1984, the Steering Committee
met to review information developed by our consul-
tants, Mr. Don Butler and Mr. Jack Paos.
Basically, the findings provided us with information on
various items to be discussed with Energas in regard to
their rate filing. The committee reviewed this
information and basically gave the members of the
Steering Committee who were going to meet with repre-
sentatives of Energas Company on Friday, September 14,
the authority to negotiate up to a 4.7% increase in the
rate.
Several members of the Steering Committee, including
Mr. Fred Poe, Assistant City Manager in Midland; Gene
Ridlehuber, Mayor of Plainview; Robert Massengale,
Assistant City Manager -Lubbock; and our consultants met
with representatives of Energas Company in Amarillo on
Friday, September 14, 1984, to discuss the rate filing
and to determine if an agreement could be reached in
the case. On Thursday, September 20, the Steering
Committee met in Midland to review the results of the
negotiations as outlined in the attached letter from
Jack Paos of R.W. Beck and Associates. After much
discussion, the Steering Committee voted to recommend
that the member cities adopt an overall rate increase
of $5 million dollars for the West Texas City Plant
Division of Energas. The original request of Energas
was for an $8.9 million increase. This represents
approximately a 4.3% overall increase in the cost of
service or a 19.7% increase in the base rate cost
exclusive of purchased gas cost and corresponding
transportation cost. As Jack Paos outlines in his
letter, he feels that the agreed amount is a fair and
reasonable level of increase, taking into account the
uncertainty of trying a case before the Railroad
Commission of Texas.
Mr. Butler advised that Energas Company had agreed that
the affected cities should have greater involvement in
any future negotiations; and had further agreed to
provide a Lead Lag Study when another increase is
requested.
No one appeared to speak for or against the rate
increase and Mayor Henry closed the public hearing at
11:30 a.m.

(19.) Consider an order defining and prescribing the rates
applicable to the sale of natural gas service.
AN ORDER DEFINING AND PRESCRIBING THE RATES APPLICABLE TO THE SALE OF
NATURAL GAS SERVICE BY ENERGAS COMPANY TO ITS CUSTOMERS WHO USE NATURAL
GAS WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS.
WHEREAS, heretofore on July 6, 1984, Energas Company, submitted an
application to the governing body of the City of Lubbock proposing a
schedule of rates to cover the sale of natural gas and natural gas service
by Energas Company to its domestic and commercial type customers who use
natural gas within the city limits of the City of Lubbock, such application
being here referred to and made a part hereof; and
WHEREAS, said application has been considered by the governing body of
the City of Lubbock, and it is the opinion of the governing body that the
rate schedule proposed herein for the sale of natural gas and natural gas
service by Energas Company is just and reasonable, and should be approved;
NOW THEREFORE, be it ordered by the governing body of the City of
Lubbock, sitting as a regulatory authority:
That Energas Company, its successors and assigns may make charges for
the sale of natural gas and natural gas service to its customers who use
natural gas within the City of Lubbock as follows:
MONTHLY RATE
Minimum Monthly Bill $4.61 $5.12
First 1 Mcf per Month at $6.5873 $7.3192
Next 3 Mcf per Month at $4.7527 per Mcf $5.2808 per Mcf
Next 6 Mcf per Month at $4.5668 per Mcf $5.0742 per Mcf
All over 10 Mcf per Month at $4.4553 per Mcf $4.9503 per Mcf
Bills rendered under the foregoing rate shall be subject to adjustment each
month to the nearest .Olc/per Mcf for (1) changes in the weighted average
cost of gas to the Company's supplier or suppliers for its West Texas
Distribution System above or below 313.40c/per Mcf at 13.6 Asia and (2)
changes in revenue taxes and lost gas expense associated with such changes
in weighted average cost of gas.
9
That the adjustments described in SECTION ONE of this Order shall be
implemented in the following manner:
a. Prior to the end of each month Energas Company shall notify the
City of (a) the actual weighted average cost of gas for the
previous month and (b) the estimated cost of gas for the current
month, which will be used for billing purposes beginning with
bills rendered on the first day of the following month.
b. Any over or undercollection of revenues resulting from the
estimated cost of gas billed during a month being different from
the actual weighted average cost of gas for such month shall be
placed in a Correcting Account and eliminated through subsequent
billings. The Correction Account shall be kept to a minimum at
all times and shall be audited by Arthur Young and Company on a
quarterly basis. Moreover, Energas Company shall periodically or
upon request inform the City of the current balance in the
Correcting Account and make its records available to
representatives of the City upon request.
c. A factor of 1.091395 shall be applied to the change in cost of gas
to compensate for the associated change in revenue taxes and lost
gas expense, PROVIDED THAT the tax recovery portion of such factor
is based upon local and state tax rates which are in effect as of
the date of this Order. Should the rate of any one or more of
such taxes be hereafter increased, Energas Company shall be
entitled to adjust the aforesaid factor accordingly.
0
If requested by the City, Energas Company shall, by March 1 of each
year, furnish the City with the detail of gas purchased for its West Texas
Distribution System during the previous calendar year as filed with the
Railroad Commission of Texas. The City may, as it deems desirable, examine
books and records and make audits to determine the accuracy of the cost of
gas purchased. .
October 11, 1984 686
a
The above net rate included a 10% discount for payment of bills within
15 days after issuance. For all bills paid after such period, the gross
rate will apply. The cost of gas adjustment per Mcf shown on the gas bill
is the net amount and must be converted to a gross amount for bills paid
after the due date.
5.
The rate prescribed herein shall become effective for all bills
rendered on and after November 1, 1984, and Energas Company shall file with
the City on or before said date (1) a written acceptance of the rates
approved herein and (1) a schedule or tariff setting forth such rates.
91
All orders or parts,of orders in conflict herewith are hereby repealed
to the extent of the conflict.
7.
This Order shall become effective upon its passage and approval.
