Consider setting the date and time for the Emergency Shelter Grant Program PublicHearing_ On March 24, 1988, the City Council approved the City of Lubbock's application to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for $6,000 Emergency Shelter Grant Program to assist the homeless in Lubbock. The City has since been awarded this grant, and a Request for Proposals was sent to social service agencies who assist the homeless. Due to the dramatic decrease in funds available in 1988 ($38,000 in ESGP funds was allocated to the City in 1981), very few proposals are anticipated. Staff will review the proposals for compliance with Federal regulations, and present them to Council for their consideration. As part of the allocation process, the City Council conducts one public hearing in order to provide citizens an opportunity to comment on the proposed allocation of Emergency Shelter Grant Funds. Staff recommended setting the time and date of the public hearing for 10:00 a.m. on September 22, 1988.

Worth Fullingim, Assistant City Attorney Agreement filed with Resolution #2890. The existing traffic signal system computer cable which feeds all intersections along 34th Street and 50th Street is currently within the I-27 corridor between 19th Street and 50th Street and must be relocated. The Standard Utility Agreement and Utility Joint Use Agreement are required for this project which is funded 100% by the State. The estimated total cost of this project is $164,429.25 for design and construction. The plans and specifications have been completed by PRC. The project can be bid as soon as these Agreements are executed by the City and State. August 11, 1988 Page No. 505 88-47B-505-497 (19.) Motion was made by Councilman Carpenter, seconded by Councilwoman Trejo to authorize Resolution #2890 as recommended by Staff. Motion carried: 6 Yeas; 0 Nays. ORDINANCE #9219 AN ORDINANCE CANCELLING AUTHORITY AND APPROVAL FOR A TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT 22ND STREET AND AVENUE Q AND AUTHORIZING THE REMOVAL OF SAID TRAFFIC SIGNAL AS AN OPERATIVE TRAFFIC SIGNAL. This traffic signal is currently in place to protect the school crossing at this intersection and operates from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on school days. The latest pedestrian count showed that currently virtually no students are using the crossing. (A total of two students were observed crossing the street during eight separate crossing periods.) The Lubbock Independent School District does not oppose the removal and are considering adjustment of the school boundaries as a result of achieving unitary status. This signal was turned off and the signal heads were covered on June 6, 1988, and only one complaint was received. Based upon the above information, and in accordance with Section 4C-2 of the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, Staff recommended that the traffic signal be removed. Motion was made by Councilman Patterson, seconded by Councilman Phillips to pass on first reading Ordinance #9219 as recommended by Staff. Motion carried: 6 Yeas; 0 Nays. (20.) Consider an Ordinance authorizing the removal of the traffic signal at the intersection of 26th Street and Boston Avenue. ORDINANCE #9220 AN ORDINANCE CANCELLING AUTHORITY AND APPROVAL FOR A TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT 26TH STREET AND BOSTON AVENUE AND AUTHORIZING THE REMOVAL OF SAID TRAFFIC SIGNAL AS AN OPERATIVE TRAFFIC SIGNAL. City Staff study of the traffic volumes at the intersection of 26th Street and Boston Avenue indicates that the minimum volume requirements for continued operation of a traffic signal are not met. In order to justify a traffic signal, the Texas Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (TMUTCD) requires a minimum volume of 500 vehicles per hour on the main street, and 150 vehicles per hour on the minor street for each of eight separate hours during the day. The highest volume hour during the day at this intersection shows only 428 vehicles on Boston Avenue and only 124 vehicles on 26th Street. Each succeeding hour then drops off considerably. August 11, 1988 Page No. 506 88-47B-506-499 (21.) June 6, 1988, the traffic signal was placed on "flash" in order to further study the need for the signal. Since then, there have been no reported accidents and only two calls about removal. Based upon the above information, and in accordance with Section 4C-2 of the TMUTCD, Staff recommended that the traffic signal be removed. This is an existing school crossing (across Boston). Staff proposed to evaluate the need for an adult guard, based on the School Crossing Policy. LISD and the Police Department have been notified of this proposed removal and have no objections. City Staff recommended approval. Motion was made by Councilman Patterson, seconded by Councilwoman Trejo to pass on first reading Ordinance #9220 as recommended by Staff.

Vandiver, First Assistant City Attorney May 26, 1988, the City Council approved an Amendment to Lubbock Power and Light's Gas Purchase and Sales Agreement to include a provision for a gas line to serve the Texas Tech Cogeneration project. That Amendment referred to the line being 8 miles long, 8" in diameter, and extending from Frankford Avenue and 82nd Street to the Texas Tech University campus. August 11, 1988 Page No. 507 Power -Tex Joint Venture was unable to secure the necessary right of way for the original route, and proposed to change the size of the line to 5" to reroute the line to extend from an interconnection with Northern Natural Gas Company's 30" pipeline located in Hockley County to a mutually agreeable point on the campus of Texas Tech University. All other changes included in this Amendment are to replace references to the 8" line referred to in the May, 1988 amendment with a description of the 6" line and the new route being recommended in this amendment being considered.

Vandiver, First Assistant City Attorney The Community Services Block Grant for FY 1988-89 is in the amount of $177,696 and this application proposes maintaining the current level of programming to assist low income families and individuals. The Community Services program includes the Information and Referral section which responds to telephone requests for information concerning community resources. It also publishes annually, August 11, 1988 Page No. 508 an updated Directory of Human Services which is used by employees and hundreds of agencies in the community. An activity started last year by the Information and Referral Office was tracking clients who requested services from a variety of agencies. This information has been valuable to churches and many other agencies providing food and other assistance to determine needs and to avoid duplication of services by community agencies. This year, the Staff has done Case Management in which client needs were analyzed and priori- tized. They were able to perform a needs assessment of the family, match them with community resources, and to complete appropriate follow-up. Other Community Services Department activities planned for the coming year will include continu- ation of a Contract between the South Plains Food Bank and the Texas Department of Human Services. Under this Contract, Community Services funds are used to provide food for the Food Bank for use by Texas Department of Human Services, to meet emergency food needs of their clients. The Community Services Department will also continue to provide bus passes to individuals needing transpor-tation for medical or employment purposes and will hold a Health Market next year to provide health information, screenings, and social and recreational activities for children and adults. The Grant provides 80% of the program cost, with the remaining 20% to be provided by the City of Lubbock. The City's share is more than covered by allocating the indirect cost reimbursement through the City back into Community Services programming and in addition provides the salary and benefits for the Information and Referral Specialist and a portion of the salary of the Information and Referral Coordinator for services with the Committee for Women.

August 11, 1988 Page No. 517 88-47B-517-515 (11.) Hold a Public Hearing on a progosal to increase total tax revenues from properties on the tax roll in 1987 by 5.64 percent. Mayor McMinn stated that the 9:45 a.m. Public Hearing would be to hear support for or opposition to the proposed tax rate increase and that all comments regarding the proposed budget would be heard at the 10:15 a.m. Budget Public Hearing. This Public Hearing was required due to the proposed.3t increase in the tax rate and as required by State Law. Notice of this Public Hearing was published in a 1/4-page ad and appeared in the evening edition of the Lubbock Avalanche Journal Monday, August 1, 1988. Mayor McMinn opened the Hearing and speakers were as follows: 1. Brian Barnes, 1905 30th Street - Against 2. Bob Nash, 6808 Nashville - For 3. Donna Childers, 3403 75th Street - Against 4. Cecil Puryear, 2619 2nd Street - Against 5. Bob Neal, 4919 38th Street - Against No one answered Mayor McMinn's final call to speak, and he closed the Public Hearing at 10:03 a.m. The sequence of events following this Public Hearing on the tax rate are as follows: August 25, 1988 First reading --Ordinance establishing new tax rate. September 8, 1988 Second reading --Ordinance establishing tax rate. 88-47B-517-516 (12.) Hold a Public Hearing on the proposed 1988-89 budget. Mayor McMinn opened the Public Hearing at 10:15 a.m., and the following individuals spoke: Emma Jean Baker requested additional funding for PAWS and stated PAWS will match whatever amount the Council authorizes. Gail Findley also requested additional funding for PAWS. Brian Barnes stated his opinion that City and County have unnecessary duplication of some services, i.e., Police and roads. August 11, 1988 Page No. 518 Cecil Puryear urged cutting in personnel positions. Bob Neal suggested that money -saving ideas of City employees be rewarded. Glenda Cook reiterated two previous requests for PAWS funding. Dr. John Bradford spoke, representing the Lubbock County Criminal Justice Commission. He stated the Commission's support for the tax increase and allocation of funds for Crime Prevention services. Archie Huckaby, who represented residents of Kingsgate, requested funds for a park in Kingsgate. He reminded Council of the large tax base of this Addition and stated they would participate in funding for this park, specifically mentioning sprinkler system and landscaping. Councilman Carpenter stated that the City needs to set up a fund for financing parks development and also mentioned the possibility of Council needing to appoint some type of Board to make recommen-dations on major issues. Mr. Huckaby said that arrangements might be worked out to come up with funds to loan the City for development of this park. Councilman Carpenter said Council possibly should address the Kingsgate request this budget year. Councilman Maloy suggested setting aside unbudgeted sales tax revenues into a separate fund. Councilman Carpenter reiterated his concern for long-range as well as immediate needs. Mr. Choate gave his opinion that too much money was allocated for Police services and that the Kingsgate Park should be funded this year. Mr. Hollis talked about duplication of services, specifically citing the multiple Chambers of Commerce as an example. Vickie Williams, representing Kingsgate Addition, spoke favoring funding for a park in that neighborhood. Roger Settler commented on duplication of services and suggested the Council look at findings of the Grace Commission and also the Consultant Study of LISD staffing. Mr. Settler suggested that firing of some City employees would be the most painless way to fund needed programs. He also requested a reduction in the tax rate. August 11, 1988 Page No. 519 Councilman Carpenter pointed out the many budget reductions. He also advised that, even with the additional policemen, the number of City employees this year is less than last year. He stated that the City of Lubbock has only 8.4 employees per 1,000, which is third lowest in Texas. Mayor McMinn closed the Hearing at 11:18 a.m. 88-47B-519-517 (13.) Consider Ordinance #9221 ado tin the -proposed 1988-89 budget. ORDINANCE #9221 AN ORDINANCE APPROVING AND ADOPTING A BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 1988-89; APPROVING REVISED BUDGET FIGURES FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 1988- 89; PROVIDING FOR NECESSARY TRANSFERS OF FUNDS BETWEEN ACCOUNTS AND DEPARTMENTS, IF REQUIRED; AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THE 1988-89 FISCAL YEAR BUDGET OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK. The proposed budgets were reviewed by the City Council and were filed with the City Secretary as required by law. In addition, a Legal Notice publicizing the Public Hearing was placed in the Lubbock Avalanche Journal. The Council also reviewed the Proposed Capital Projects Budget last Council meeting and Staff recommended approval of that document. Council also reviewed the FY 1988-89 Board of City Development Budget and the Lubbock Visitors and Convention Bureau Budget and Staff recommended approval of those documents. By memo, City Manager Larry Cunningham advised as follows: 1. Budget Analvsis - General Fund Revenues After two years of budget cutbacks, personnel reductions and delayed capital replacement, Staff, in response to City requests, recommended a U increase in the tax rate in order to significantly increase police service, maintain other services at an acceptable level, and protect the City's investment in capital equipment and facilities. General Fund Revenue projections are based on a tax rate of 54 per $100 of property value. The increased tax rate is expected to generate $1,328,589 in extra revenue to be used to finance expanded public safety programs and permanent capital maintenance projects. The sales tax is projected to be approximately 3.9% more in 1988-89 than the estimate for the current fiscal year and property values are estimated to be up approximately $182,000,000, from the valuation of new construction. Tax revenue for debt service has decreased approximately $200,000 which has been transferred to the General Fund and franchise taxes are estimated to increase slightly during the 1988-89 fiscal year. August 11, 1988 Page No. 520 Licenses and permits are estimated to increase by 5.5% due primarily t4 the anticipation that as housing vacancies fill, development should be stimulated again in 1988-89. Several new fees in the Municipal Court will be available to the City next year as a result of the Municipal Court presiding judge initiating new programs. Vital statistics revenue (for birth certificates and death certificates) is estimated to continue increasing during 1988-89 because of the increased requirement for children to hold social security cards. Cultural and recreational fees are estimated to be up 4.1% in 1988-89, primarily because of the additional activity in the Civic Center and Auditorium/Coliseum as a result of increased promotional activity by the Civic Center and the Visitor and Convention Bureau. Investment income is estimated to be up next year by 20%. The investments from which the City is deriving investment income at this time are investments made when the interest rate was lower and investments which have been made during this year will mature next year and should later on result in increase in investment income. Expenditures: Total 1988-89 General Fund Expenditures are budgeted at $52,358,776. Operating expenditures, which are total expenditures, less amounts budgeted for reserves, are $3,607,685 more than the previous year's approved budget. Of this $3,607,685 increase, $1,420,862 or 39.3% has been targeted for expanded level Public Safety Programs, and Median and Right -Of -Way Maintenance. These programs are: New Fire Station #3 $ 90,553 Expanded Police Patrol 546,528 Expanded Detective Unit 307,175 9-1-1 Operators 97,372 Expanded Police Flex Patrol 179,234 Crime Analysis Unit 91,539 Median/ROW Maintenance 108,461 Total $1,420,862 If the cost of expanded level programs is removed, the increase in operating expenditures over revised is 3.9%. The remainder of the increase is distributed throughout the General Fund departments, with salary and medical insurance increases accounting for another approximately $1,350,000 or 34.6%. Much needed capital and miscellaneous increases in maintenance and service costs make up the remaining 26.1% increase. In the General Government area expenditures have increased over 1987-88 approved by 1% primarily due to salary and benefit increases and increased contribution to the Tax Appraisal District. Management Services increased 2% due to salary and benefit increases; Financial Services increased 11.7% due largely to changes in Municipal Court. Municipal Court budget increased 26.6% to finance three clerical August 11, 1988 Page No. 521 positions, the new night court, weekend judges, substitute judges and building improvements. Finance Administration increased 23.6% due to financing a vacant Revenue Analyst position and addition of a clerical position. Development Services increased 5.0% due to salary and benefit increases and lower reimbursements in Streets. Public Safety and Services increased 3.4% due to salary and benefit increases and expanded median and right-of-way maintenance. Fire Department increased 7.5% due to staffing of new fire station, no understaffing, and filling of equipment maintenance position, as well as 3% Civil Service salary increase. Police Department increased 15.1% due to the expanded patrol, detective and flex programs, crime analysis unit, and a 3% civil service salary increase and upgrading of data entry positions. Tax Appraisal District contribution increased 20%. Permanent Capital Maintenance Fund increased 119.3% due to the recommended increased contribution generated to maintain our $92,500,000 public facilities and replacement of large capital equipment. Debt Service Fund: Total revenues for Debt Service Fund are estimated to be $13,409,253 which is 1.32% less than the approved Fiscal Year 1987-88 revenue estimate. Expenditures for the fund are budgeted to increase 1.94% because a Bond Sale of previously authorized General Obligation Bonds was executed during Fiscal Year 1987-88 and the bonds will be serviced through this fund as scheduled debt service amounts come due. Proceeds from the Bond Sale will finance a fire station, water and sewer system improvements and street improvements. 2. Budget Analysis - Enterprise Funds Water Revenue Fund: Projected revenues for 1988-89 Water Revenue Fund operations are estimated at $16,603,444. This estimate anticipates an increase in sales of $436,831 to general consumers metered. Municipal sales are projected to decrease by $170,000 due to decreased sales to the Parks Department. Park maintenance will no longer pay for the non - potable water they receive from Water Reclamation that is used to irrigate the Cemetery, certain parks, and to maintain the water level in Canyon Lakes. Other revenues will maintain a fairly constant level. Total planned expenditure budget for 1988-89 is $16,603,444. Of this total, 57.2% is allocated for operating expenditures. Total operating expenditures for Fiscal Year 1988-89 are 3.9% more than approved for 1987-88. Contribution for debt service declined 4.3% from approved 1987-88 $5,511,558 to projected $5,273,553 in 1988-89. Indirect cost allocation declined $33,440 and Canadian River Municipal Water Authority Debt Service dropped $8,687 for August 11, 1988 Page No. 522 total $1,342,856. Contribution to reserves is budgeted to increase $112,891, for a total reserve -contribution of $177,384. Sewer Revenue Fund:, Sewer Revenue Fund revenues are budgeted at $6,932,756 for 1988-89, an increase of 17.4%. Sewer service charges projected revenue will increase $1,675,756 or 39.4% over 1987-88 based on an increase in the sewer rate. Revenue projections for the Sewer Revenue Fund assume an increase of 75t in the base rate, effective August 1, 1988, with an additional projected increase in the rate during FY 1988-89. With the implementation of an additional increase in the rate during Fiscal Year 1988-89, the estimate for total sewer service charge revenue next year to be a minimum of $5,921,756. Staff advised that these rate increases are necessary in order to maintain an acceptable level of service, comply with state and federal regulations, and prepare for future needs. Changes to existing programs and services have highlighted concerns regarding compliance with the 1986 Safe Drinking Water Act, E.P.A. and State health regulations, and plans for a stream discharge facility. It is necessary to anticipate and plan for these significant and long term impacts on operations in a manner that will minimize the burden to the citizens in the long run. Interest on investments is projected to increase by $166,000 primarily due to investment of 1988 Bond Sale proceeds. During the forthcoming year, it is anticipated that Sewer Fund Land Application operations will involve significant changes. First, revenues are predicted to drop from $763,000 to $350,000. During the current fiscal year, cotton accounted for almost $470,000 in revenue. In order to go to a more water consumptive type of cropping pattern, however, Staff anticipates going to corn, soybeans, and various types of wheat and grazing crops. These are predicted to bring in substantially less revenue. On the expenditure side, predictions are for an increase from this year's original figure of $800,500 to approximately $1,340,000, due largely to the significant increase in the amount of acreage (from 2,600 acres to 3,800 acres). Total Sewer Revenue Fund expenditures are budgeted at $6,932,756. Operating expenditures account for 63.9% of the total expenditures. Operating expenses in the Sewer Department are budgeted at $4,434,558, an increase of 8.8%, because of the additional area being irrigated at the Land Application Site. Debt service and indirect cost allocations to the General Fund total $2,498,198. August 11, 1988 Page No. 523 Sanitation Revenue Fund: In the Sanitation Revenue Fund, total revenues are estimated to be $5,209,527 with garbage service charges accounting for $4,914,555 or 94.3% of the total. Garbage service charges are down 2.5% from the 1987-88 approved budget. Landfill fees are projected to produce $263,472 and interest on investments $31,500. Total expenditures for Sanitation Revenue Fund are budgeted at $5,209,527 with $4,377,024 or 84% targeted for operating expenditures. Total fund expenditures for 1988-89 are budgeted at 97.4% of 1987-88 due to a 29.3% drop in the contribution to Sanitation Permanent Capital Maintenance Fund. Proposed operating expenditures increased $89,280 and indirect cost allocation $30,552. Airport Revenue Fund: Airport revenues continue to be down this year, and little improvement is anticipated for 1989. Staff recommendation was that the Council allocate this year's contingency reserves to the Airport Revenue Fund. This transfer in the amount of $434,073 will carry this Fund and provide a balance to begin next year's operations at the Airport. Including a $303,528 beginning balance from this transfer, airport revenues next year are expected to total $3,663,364. Revenues projected to increase to the following levels over approved 1987-88 are as follows: landing area $630,000; hanger area $255,000; terminal area $1,180,000; and miscellaneous $70,000. Decreases to the following levels are projected in the parking revenues $1,031,836; industrial area $103,000 and interest on investments $20,000. Airport Revenue Fund total expenditures are expected to be $3,663,364 with $3,118,435 or 85% budgeted for operating expenditures. Operating expenditures have increased by 11.7% over approved 1987-88. Other expenditures including debt service and indirect cost allocation total $544,929. No contribution to reserves is budgeted. Golf Revenue Fund: Golf Fund revenues for 1988-89 are projected to be $955,215, 18.2% over the 1987-88 approved bud- get. The major increases occur in pro shop and concession sales. 1987-88 revenues for these accounts were reflected as net revenues, with no offsetting expenditure budgeted. Revised 1987-88 and proposed 1988-89 revenues are budgeted as gross amounts, with expenditures for the operations budgeted in Golf Course operations. Green fees and memberships which account for 47% of the budget, are budgeted at $440,000, an increase of $8,500. August 11, 1988 Page No. 524 Golf Revenue Fund operating expenditures are budgeted at $782,067, down $25,591 from the 1987- 88 approved budget, due to personnel reductions. Total fund expenditures are budgeted at $955,215, an increase of $126,557 or 18.2%. This will allow the Golf Fund to contribute $86,566 to debt service, $5,200 to indirect cost allocation and $81,382 to golf capital. Changes In Existing Programs And Services In The Enterprise Funds Sewer Line Maintenance Crews: The Sanitary Sewer Collection System has been operating with five vacancies since October, 1986, thus reducing the City's ability to operate the equipment necessary to regularly clean out sewer lines and lift stations to prevent sewer line blockages. There are 744 miles of sewer collection lines that should be cleaned twice a year, totaling 1,488 miles annually. Currently, a little more than half of these sewer lines are being scheduled annually for maintenance. One result of this reduced level of sewer line maintenance has been an increase in customer calls to report stoppages from 825 during 1986-87 to an estimated 1,557 during this fiscal year. Filling the five positions this year will enable a return to an adequate Sewer Line Maintenance Program. These five positions will reinstate two sewer line maintenance crews. Cost $82,034 Industrial Waste Monitoring Program: The Wastewater Treatment Plant has at times been put out of commission because of illegal discharges into the sewer line. Periodic disposal of solvents, acids, oils and other chemicals into the sewage system kills the bacteria that digests contaminants in the waste water. In addition to industrial discharges, other types of businesses place organic material directly into the sewer system which greatly increases the biological oxygen demand. The plan to utilize more extensive waste water treatment and stream discharge will require a comprehensive industrial monitoring program. Even if stream discharge is not utilized in the future, an industrial monitoring program is necessary to consistently meet requirements for waste water quality as stipulated in our permit from the Texas Water Commission. The existing industrial waste ordinance provides for a monitoring program which can involve either pre-treatment of waste water or the payment of surcharge that are designed to encourage pretreatment. The City presently monitors the industrial discharges of only fifteen potential pollutants and this has been done by laboratory technicians in addition to their regular duties. August 11, 1988 Page No. 525 A successful industrial monitoring program will require personnel whose sole job is to monitor the discharges into the system. Additional equipment is required to expand the number of businesses and industries which are now discharging chemicals and organic materials into the sanitary sewer system. Staff proposed adding an Industrial Waste Coordinator and three Chemists to the Laboratory Services staff. This Program will also require four sampling units, a grease analyzer, a computer and three vehicles. Surcharges paid by industries who continue to dump illegal waste into the sewer system will offset part of the additional program cost. The City's limited Monitoring Program presently brings in $70,000 per year. Cost $147,012 Trench Safety System: In order to comply with new standards set out by the state, Staff recommended the purchase of a complete Trench Safety System which will keep the City of Lubbock in compliance with all state laws and federal guidelines concerning the trenching operations. This equipment will include trench boxes, manhole boxes and speedshoring equipment. Cost $30,000 SDWA Clerical Sunoort: New requirements for documentation under the 1986 Safe Drinking Water Act will place an increasing demand City records -keeping effort. The City is now required to document such items as the water sampling plants, dates of the samplings, specific contents of water being sampled and the results of the samples. In addition, the City will be required to prepare and submit quality control documentation from the Water Treatment Plant to both the Environmental Protection Agency and the Texas Department of Health. An adds-tional Clerk Typist will be hired to perform these new duties as well as clerical duties presently performed by operating personnel. Cost $13,877 Reinstate Maintenance Positions: Maintenance at the Water Treatment Plant is also receiving a higher priority due to the 1986 Safe Drinking Water Act and Staff recommended that two vacant Maintenance positions be reinstated in the Water Department budget. Initially, these employees will begin a painting and cleanup program at the water treatment plant that will require at least one year to complete. At the same time, these employees will schedule routine preventive maintenance on motors, pumps, filters and chemical feeders. August 11, 1988 Page No. 526 The 1986 Safe drinking Water Act will require additional filter maintenance to insure compliance with higher standards. These employees will be used to perform such tasks as cleaning filter wash bar nozzles, acidizing the filter media to dissolve foreign particles, and periodically adding filter media to replace that which is lost during normal operation. They will also maintain.turbidity monitoring equipment which records treated water clarity. Cost $31,613 Proposed Financinq Of The Entergrise.Budgets: 1988-89 will require that a close appraisal of the revenue structures and fees in several City Enterprise Funds to ensure that they can support future needs. Revenues for Water, Sanitation, Airport and Golf are based on 1987-88 revenue and fee structures. However, Council was advised that it may be necessary to make revisions to these in the upcoming year to adequately finance current operations and provide adequately for the future. 3. Budget Analysis - Electric Revenue Fund_ Revenues The revenue forecast for Fiscal Year 1988-89 estimates a significant increase of 2.3% when compared to the original estimate for this year, especially in light of the 3.511% decrease in electric rates that occurred in April 1988, and another rate decrease anticipated to become effective in late summer of 1988. Customer growth, resulting from efforts of City employees accounts for a portion of this increase, with the rest being attributed to an increase in interest income. Additional investments will result from the increase in bond funds, which will be in- vested until expended. Expenditures• Planned expenditures are expected to be $49,055,260, an increase of $1,687,292, 2.3% over the original budget for 1987-88. However, operating expenditures, which make up 71.1% of the total, are down $703,795 or 2%, when compared to the approved budget for this year. The increase in the overall total is due to the amount dedicated for reserves for Permanent Capital Maintenance, debt service for the Cogeneration Project at Texas Tech, and the City's Self Insurance Fund. An additional $200,000 transfer to General Fund has been budgeted to help fund median and right-of-way maintenance and a Police Crime Analysis unit. LP&L's loads are growing and as a result more energy is needed. LP&L presently has three energy sources: LP&L's generation, firm purchased power, and non -firm purchased power. The firm purchased power is needed to provide system reserves and back-up capabilities. The cost of this firm purchased power has recently been reduced by $367,380 per year due to a successfully contested rate case. The costs of August 11, 1988 Page No. 527 generation and non -firm power are compared daily with LP&L using the more economical. With the new gas contracts, LP&L can now generate most of the time at a lower cost than it can buy non -firm energy. These economics will increase the amount of energy LP&L generates and result in a $564,769 increase in overall gas costs. Non -firm energy will still be used when it would cost more to increase generation loads than it would cost to buy short term non -firm energy. Significant Expenditure Increases (Decreases): Debt Service for 0 Overhaul of Holly 39,100 TMRS 37,988 Medical Insurance 46,870 Cogeneration Plant $2,000,00 1&2 Self Insurance Fund 200,000 Workers' Compensation 22,156 Reduction in purchased power (315,360) Increase in gas cost 564,769 Changes In Existing Programs And Services In The Electric Fund Power Technician: The proposed budget also includes an expanded program which is estimated to result in an increase of $502,000 in electric revenues. In 1985, Lubbock Power and Light hired its first Power Technician to work with apartment managers and owners throughout the city. The purpose of that position was to reduce the amount of unbilled electric consumption that resulted when tenants moved out and others moved in. Education was also a significant goal, with the idea being to educate managers about conservation and electricity costs, and tenants about operation of their heating, cooling and hot water heating units to result in conservative bills. At the time LP&L hired the first Power Technician, 4,300 apartment units being served by LP&L. Unbilled electric consumption has been reduced 17,411,000 kilowatt hours, producing an net annual savings of $502,000. One Power Technician cannot keep up with all of the apartment units LP&L serves. Unbilled consumption can be reduced further. Funding for a second Power Technician, vehicle and expenses is being proposed, and this is projected to reduce unbilled consumption by far more than the cost of the Program. Cost $34,303 August 11, 1988 Page No. 528 Residential Street Liqhtin In Fiscal Year 1988-89, the fifth year of a five year program to change out all existing mercury vapor (MY) residential street lights to 100 watt high pressure sodium (HPS) will be completed. An estimated total of 868-175 Watt MY lights will be changed out to 100 Watt HPS this fiscal year making a five year total of 4,265 residential street lights changed out to HPS. The lights changed out this fiscal year will save approxi- mately $14,348 in electricity cost. These lights produce 20% more light at 57% of the cost of operating the old system. Council discussion followed the Public Hearing. Councilman Phillips said he did not dispute the need for additional policemen, but stated his opinion that the additional officers could be funded with no tax increase or no more than 1t increase. He pointed out that not only was Council increasing taxes, but they were also raising water and sewer rates. After further discussion, a motion was made by Councilman Carpenter, seconded by Councilman Maloy to allocate $15,000 from Contingency Reserve to match funds by PAWS. Motion carried: 6 Yeas; 0 Nays. Motion was made by Councilman Maloy, seconded by Councilman Carpenter that City of Lubbock make application for a TP&L Grant for $100,000 and that $100,000 be pledged from Contingency Reserve to fund Kingsgate Addition Park. Motion carried: 6 Yeas; 0 Nays. Motion was made by Councilman Maloy, seconded by Councilman Patterson to pass on first reading Ordinance #9221 as amended by previous motions to fund $15,000 for PAWS and $100,000 for Kingsgate Park. Motion carried: 5 Yeas; 1 Nay --Councilman Phillips. August 11, 1988 Page No. 529 There being no further business to come before Council, motion was made by Councilman Patterson, seconded by Councilwoman Trejo to adjourn the meeting at 11:28 a.m. Motion carried: 6 Yeas; D Nays.
