lands owned by the City. (NE/4 of Section 43 and N/80 acres of

Copies of Contract Change Notices 01, 02, 03 and 04 to Contract 7560005906 97 with
the Texas Department of Health are filed with Resolution 5384.
This year's annual contract with the Texas Department of Health
totals $461,965 and includes both financial and direct assistance.
All programs as outlined in the contract are continuing operations
from previous years.
Contract distribution is as follows:
Milk and Dairy Testinp: The Health Department Regional
laboratory is reimbursed for laboratory analysis of milk and
dairy samples at the rate of $11.00 per sample, of approximately
455 samples, for a total of $5,005. These activities include full
program cost recovery and are directly related to protection of
the public.
Immunizations --Epidemiology: The City of Lubbock provides
an immunization clinic with the fewest barriers to service.
Activities include providing immunizations at the Health
Department clinic; outreach activities for infants, children and
high risk adults in their homes, at day care centers, health fairs
and senior citizen centers; and investigation and initiation of
control measures for vaccine -preventable diseases. For
example, Staff scheduled fifteen clinics for the flu vaccine in
the community including: Forest Heights Church, Primetime
Retirement, Harwell Safety Fiesta, Plains Co -Op Mill, Skyview
Neighborhood and Carlisle Neighborhood, to name a few.
Salaries and fringe benefits for a registered nurse, a licensed
vocational nurse and a secretary to run the program are included
in the attached of $68,356. In addition to salaries, this
13
City Council Minutes
January 9, 1997
Page 14
attachment provides direct assistance of vaccine, valued at
$140,011.
HIV Surveillance: This $35,398 supports salary and fringe
benefits for the HIV/AIDS Surveillance specialist. This person
does not operate a clinic; rather as a surveillance specialist, he is
dedicated to investigating cases of HIV and AIDS infection in
Lubbock.
Regional Administrative Services: This attachment supports
comprehensive public health services that are consistent with
the Health Department Mission Statement. Qualifying activities
include TDH general fund laboratory, S.T.D. and community
education services. Efforts must also be directed at preventing
heart disease and cancer.
The $69,182 in financial assistance provides salaries and fringe
benefits for three City employees and direct assistance
equivalent to $43,440 for two State -paid employees. Their
services are available at no cost to the City. Of the five
employees, two work in the S.T.D. program, one works in the
laboratory and one in Health Education. The fifth person is the
TDH employee who manages all TDH contracts, reports, time
sheets and accounting of expenditures. The Sexually
Transmitted Disease Program is designed to stop the spread of
disease by tracking down the partners of those diagnosed with
sexually transmitted diseases and either treating them or
referring them to another clinic or physician.
Tuberculosis Control (attachment 06). The TB Control
attachment of $20,073 provides salary, fringe benefits and travel
for a health aide who follows up on all individuals tested
positive for tuberculosis. The health aide's job is to ensure that
clients with diagnosed, active TB take medications as
prescribed. The aide goes to the infected person's home or
place of employment to give them their medication, observes for
patient drug reaction, monitors family members and other close
contacts for TB and screens high risk populations for TB. This
activity effectively limits disease spread and the development of
drug resistant forms of tuberculosis.
Laboratories (attachment 07). The final attachment of $80,500
consists of direct assistance in the amount of $76,000 worth of
reagents and $4,500 for supplies in performing tests that support
statewide programs, such as outbreak investigations and
HIV/STD prevention. The Health Department is a regional
laboratory that provides support for a number of clinics in
Region 1. The laboratory generates revenue through Medicaid
billing, which offsets some of their costs.
Without the Texas Department of Health contract, fulfilling the
Core Missions of Public Health --Surveillance, Health Education,
Prevention services and Laboratory support --will be greatly
impaired and at a much reduced level. Therefore, staff
recommends approval of the resolution.

In early 1995 Mayor Pro Tern Randy Neugebauer, Councilman
Max Ince, and City Manager Bob Cass represented the City on the
Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Policy Advisory
Committee. In a joint effort with Lubbock County, the City of
Lubbock agreed to commit to a third of the 20 percent match
($313,000) and to maintenance of the one mile stretch of 82nd
Street within the City limits. Lubbock County committed to two-
21

Page 22
thirds of the 20 percent match. This agreement was conditional,
based on two things:
the State of Texas would put this stretch of road on the State
Highway System, and
the Texas Transportation Commission/Texas Department of
Transportation approved the project.
The project was submitted to the Texas Transportation Committee
for funding from their Commission Strategic Priority Funds (funds
above and beyond what the Lubbock District Office of TxDOT
receives). A delegation appeared before the Commission on
March 30, 1995. The Commission did not select the project at that
time. The decision was made to continue with the project
development and resubmit the project for funding at a future date.
A TxDOT official indicated that having plans and estimates
prepared may help with approval if funding is available. Since
then, engineering plans, specifications, and estimates have been
developed on this project using City and County funds designated
earlier for use as the project match. The final revision to the plans
is anticipated in mid -January. The funding spent on development
of this project's plans and estimates will qualify toward the City
and County 20 percent match. The following is a revision to the
previous totals.
The estimated cost of the project is $6,471,491. The cost is broken
down as follows:

At the MPO Policy Advisory Committee meeting on December
18,1996, it was decided the project remains a priority. It was
agreed that the City and County would submit documented
commitment to the project, confirming the allocation of funds and
agreement to continue maintenance of the roadway. The Policy
Advisory Committee directed staff to resubmit a petition for
project selection to the Texas Department of Transportation asking
to be put on the Commission agenda for the April 24, 1997
delegation/meeting. Staff has coordinated with Lubbock County
representatives in development of the petition and documentation
of their commitment.

In January of 1995, the City of Lubbock City Council passed a
resolution providing $313,000 in matching funds for the
reconstruction and widening of 82nd Street from Slide Road (F.M.
1730) to U.S. Highway 62/82.
Based on current cost estimates from the engineering
documentation and recommendation by the Transportation Policy
Committee, the staff recommends submission of a change to the
project total in the form of a resolution to:
increase the budget amount for matching funds by $137,000, for
a total match of $450,000, using unallocated bond proceeds
designated for street projects, and
maintain the two mile stretch of 82nd Street in the City limits if
the State of Texas would put this stretch of road on the State
Highway System. (Staff currently maintain this portion of the
roadway.)
Larry Hertel, City Engineer, recommends approval.
Councilmember Max Ince as a question if Lubbock County had
agreed to maintain. Mr. Hertel responded that the County would
take formal action on January 13, 1997.

paid by such abutting property and the owners thereof a lesser amount not to
exceed such special benefits.
(b) The remaining cost of said improvements after deducting the sums finally
assessed against abutting property and the owners thereof under subparagraph
(a) above shall be paid by the City of Lubbock.
SECTION 5. THAT the amounts assessed against and to be paid by the abutting

payment of any installment promptly as the same matures, then at the option of the holder
of such assessment of certificate issued in evidence thereof, such default shall mature the
