Item 4 — Comments from Citizens Josie Rose, 1226 N. Rosewood, discussed concerns with flooding in the Eastside community, health concerns with standing water, the fact that there is only one way into the Martin Luther King Center, and safety for the children in the center. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 6, 2025 Page 2 PAGE 2 of 13 AGENDA ITEM NO.5. Michael Bohling, 3919 Barnett Rd., discussed concerns regarding the current tornado warning siren policy, which requires a confirmed tornado, improvements in technology, and the sirens not being sounded last Tuesday during a tornado warning. The current policy does not allow for tornadoes that originate in city limits but move outside city limits quickly, and he is concerned that citizens have little warning. He asked that the Council consider changing the policy to sound the sirens when a tornado warning is issued. Ricky Lowe discussed issues he observed during the flood and asked how we can govern some of that, and what work is needed in areas that are currently flooding. He discussed concerns with the Duncan Channel project and how the water banks on Bonner St. and does not go anywhere. He asked what we can do to move this water to reduce the flooding issues in Eastside and discussed possible future projects. He commended Councilor Brooks for being a new Councilor stepping up to do a great job. Candace Archie, 1615 Andrews Dr., stated she lives close to Duncan, and when it floods, she is blocked in. She asked if there are flood gates that could be used to help Eastside, and if so, where they are located, and what their function is. She discussed a large crane on Flood Street and asked what its purpose is. Russell Schreiber, Director of Public Works, stated that there are flood gates at the end of Duncan Channel; they were damaged in a storm between 2019 and 2020, and the City currently has a project under construction now. Flood gates protect the roadways, are closed when the river reaches 16 ft., and they bypass the water around the gates to keep the roadways from flooding. There are additional storm drains that go to the river, but when the river gets too high, water backs up and comes through those drains and floods streets. It took time to design and bid the project, and it took almost a year for the contractor to receive the new gates to install. That delayed the project, and hopefully, the project will be completed in the next five months. James Mason, 1800 Avalon PI., representing the Muslim community, discussed concerns with our children and the lack of guidance and leadership. He asked that the Council give him the authority and resources to assist the problem children in our community. Item 5-7 — Consent Items James McKechnie, Interim City Manager, gave a briefing on the items listed under the Consent Agenda. Moved by Councilor Browning to approve the consent agenda. The motion was seconded by Councilor Battaglino and, with no comments or questions from the public, carried by the following vote: CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 6, 2025 Page 3 PAGE 3 of 13 AGENDA ITEM NO.5.

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 6, 2025 Page 4 PAGE 4 of 13 AGENDA ITEM NO.5. Item 8 — Update and Discussion related to City-owned lots at Lake Arrowhead and Lake Kickapoo The City Council adjourned into Executive Session at 9:14 a.m. in accordance with Texas Government Code §551 .072. Mayor Short reconvened the meeting in open session at 9:35 a.m. and announced that no votes or further action were taken. Mayor Short stated that after the Council's consideration, they are not going to sell any lake lots, for any price, at any time, in the foreseeable future. Tina Jones, Lake Kickapoo, discussed concerns with road conditions, trees, wildlife, trash, and the City not funding the Lake Kickapoo Volunteer Fire Department. She stated the dock was torn down and not replaced, discussed concerns with large gravel on the roads, the lack of representation, and said she feels the Council does a great job for Wichita Falls, but not for the Lake community. She thanked the council for finally deciding, being honest, and letting them know they would not sell the land. Stacey Darnell, 6785 FM 2606, said she appreciates the decision, but she wants to second everything that Tina just said. She would like for lake residents to have a voice going forward, either through a committee or a representative, so they can have some input in decisions made that affect them. Mayor Short stated that residents can form a committee anytime, and their voices have been heard throughout these discussions. Ms. Darnell asked at what point it becomes a priority to the City, and there is a more formalized process for them to have a voice. Mayor Short stated he is not opposed to attending meetings to hear their concerns, but he feels it is up to the community to pick the community members to serve on a committee. Ms. Darnell would like a representative group from both lakes. Diane Greco, Lake Arrowhead, stated that she and her husband would prefer to have deeded property, and she asked if they had polled lake residents to see who would like to purchase their lots. Ms. Greco asked about the eighty-seven acres across from her residence and if there are any plans for that area. She asked about the appraisal process and the City's decision-making process that led to the decision not to sell any lots. Mayor Short noted that discussion from the executive session cannot be disclosed, but they listened to and considered the property owners' input. Pat Hoffman, Property Management Supervisor, stated that there has been discussion regarding the eighty-seven acres and possible future development. Councilor Battaglino asked Kinley Hegglund, City Attorney, to discuss concerns with selling one lot in an area that has not been surveyed, concerns about being landlocked, and easement issues. Mr. Hegglund stated that it is problematic to sell one parcel of land without surveying the entire area, which would be expensive, and selling a small number CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 6, 2025 Page 5 PAGE 5 of 13 AGENDA ITEM NO.5. of parcels would not cover that expense. He discussed issues with the City property being landlocked and potential easement issues. L.B. Rainbolt, Lake Arrowhead, agreed that there is no representation for the individuals who live at the lakes and asked that someone be elected or appointed to represent them to protect their interests. Mayor Short said he would be the representative. Kerry Shepherd stated she would like to purchase her lot, but at a reasonable price. She would love the option to buy, but she understands the decision of selling all or none since some people would lose their homes if they were forced to buy. She agrees with the need for representation, discussed concerns with the roads, and feels that paying a lease every year is like taxation without representation. A gentleman who did not give his name or address said the Council has done a good job of taking care of some areas in Wichita Falls, but asked that they consider Lake Arrowhead and Lake Kickapoo. People from all over visit these lakes for recreation, and the lakes represent Wichita Falls. Visitors spend money in Wichita Falls, and there needs to be an effort to make the lakes look presentable. Councilor Taylor asked Mr. Hegglund to discuss reasonable pricing and related laws. Mr. Hegglund stated that per law, the City is required to sell property at market value and have the land appraised. The City hired an outside certified appraiser with experience in appraising lake lots, and under state law, the city cannot sell land at less than its market value. Kerry Shepherd stated that fair market value is set by valid comps, and the comps presented were from different markets, with different job markets, and one hundred miles away. Lenders will not loan on comps from Brownwood and Abilene, and she feels the only valid comp is the value set by the Clay County Appraisal District, which is much lower. Mike Nolen, Lake Arrowhead, agreed with Ms. Shepherd, but he does not feel the values are appropriate. He feels raising the lot values would lower the community's value to the individuals who live there, and the City is making enough money. Mr. Nolen said, "If you don't think industry looks at recreational values, then you are wrong." He recommends that the lakes be a bigger priority and not ignored. Mark Fry, Lake Kickapoo, said he moved from Katy, TX, and sixty-five percent of those living at the lake are on social security and retired. As people and Christians, we should all recognize this, and he feels there should be better notification. He found out about the meeting through Facebook and from his neighbors. If this is the way the city works, he does not want to be a part of it. He loves living at the lake, loves the people, and is privileged to be there. Mayor Short reiterated that we are not selling the lots, and leases will continue. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 6, 2025 Page 6 PAGE 6 of 13 AGENDA ITEM NO.5. Pat Hoffman discussed statements about appraisals not being fair, and how Clay County appraises on the lease rate and not on the value of the land, which is why the appraisals were higher. Devon Smith, 839 FM 1954, understands the decision, but asked that the Council explore what other cities have done, such as Abilene. He feels the lake would be valued much more with deeded property, and owners would take better care of what is theirs. Mayor Short noted that Abilene also receives property taxes. Mr. Smith said there are other lakes that have property outside of city limits that have sold lots. Stacy Darnell said they have been told Lake Arrowhead is not a recreational lake, and that is why the leases are the way they are, but research shows that Lake Arrowhead was constructed for water supply and recreational purposes. The value of their property and amenities is important to them, and recreation is important and brings positive things to our city and lake. Donna Nekus, Lake Arrowhead, asked if the City is going to raise their fees, what are they going to get for that? Residents pick up the trash and mow city property, and she wants to know the justification for the increase. Roads are bad, trees are not being trimmed, and there are fire hazards. Who will take care of that? Renee Shepherd, Lake Arrowhead, asked about the fire department leases and if any of the lease money they pay could be given to the Volunteer Fire Department to assist with fire relief, and their lease rates. Ms. Hoffman stated the fire department has two leases, and they pay $0.50 per year for each lease. Mayor Short asked Paul Menzies, Assistant City Manager, to discuss the city's responsibilities at the lakes. Mr. Menzies stated that this is a landlord-tenant arrangement. They have driven the roads at the lakes with members of the community, and the roads there are in as good a shape or better in some areas than in the City. With regards to the leases currently in effect, the rates are still below the market rate for leases. He reiterated that Clay County appraises based on lease rates and not fair market value. The City does basic road maintenance, and contractually, that ends in the early 2030s. The City provides basic maintenance of parks and trash cleanup, especially around the holidays when events happen that we are not aware of that create trash and disturbances. This is a landlord-tenant relationship, and people understand the expectations when they sign their lease. Johnny Wittmer feels there should be a way to purchase the lots at some point. He looked at several lakes in the area, some were higher and some were lower. He feels our appraisals were a little high, but he thinks the city would benefit from selling since they would receive a lump sum, and it would take twenty or more years to receive that amount CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 6, 2025 Page 7 PAGE 7 of 13 AGENDA ITEM NO.5. in the lease payments. He hopes the council offers them the opportunity to purchase their lots at some point. Mayor Short stated that they did not increase lease rates for a year while the City explored the option to sell, paid for a certified appraiser to determine fair market values, had no idea what the appraisal numbers would be, and they are not selling lots. He said he would attend any meeting the lake residents want to have. Councilor Cobb stated that we have tried to be as transparent as possible. We went through the process, hired a third-party appraiser, and must follow state law. His parents have a place on Lake Arrowhead, so he understands. He reminded them that lake residents voluntarily deannexed, so they do not have police and fire. He acknowledges we can do better and are willing to do that. Item 9a — Resolution 52-2025 Resolution for a memorial highway designation at the southbound U.S. Highway 82 Overpass (flyover) in honor of Ray Gonzalez, Jr. Moved by Councilor Battaglino to approve Resolution 52-2025. The motion was seconded by Councilor Taylor. Terry Floyd, Director of Development Services, discussed the proposed dedication, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) sign regulations, and the requirement that the sign be approved by TxDOT before it can be installed. Mr. Floyd thanked Fabian Medellin for his work on this project. Johnny Villastrigo, with the Mexican American Veterans Association (MAVA), discussed Ray Gonzalez's military service and many awards, his extensive service to organizations in Wichita Falls and Wichita County, that he was named Hispanic of the Year, and his served the public both as a City Councilor for the City of Wichita Falls, and County Commissioner for Wichita County. He was the first Hispanic elected as a County Commissioner, and owned and operated Ray's Foreign Car Service in Wichita Falls, where he worked alongside his father for 59 years. He was a graduate of Wichita Falls High School and of Midwestern State University. He was married to Bea Gonzalez for 54 years, the father of two children, grandfather to four, and great-grandfather to one. The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Mayor Short, Councilors Battaglino, Brooks, Browning, Cobb, Flack, and Taylor. Nays: None CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 6, 2025 Page 8 PAGE 8 of 13 AGENDA ITEM NO.5. MAVA and the Gonzales family presented Mayor Short with an award of appreciation and support for recognizing Ray Gonzalez, Jr., his family, and all veterans. Mayor Short stated that we honor a great man and a great veteran, and thanked his family. Ray Gonzalez's daughter, Renae Murphy, spoke on behalf of the Gonzalez family and thanked the Mayor and Council for this extraordinary honor. This is more than a name on a sign; it's a tribute to a life well-lived, his service, and the values Ray Gonzalez, Jr. held dear. He was proud to call Wichita Falls home, loved this city, and served it with everything he had and with deep faith. Naming the overpass by the business he and his dad ran for 59 years is deeply meaningful to the family. Dad would be humbled to be the first Purple Heart veteran recognized in this way. He never sought recognition, but she knows this would fill his heart with pride. Thank you for preserving his memory in a place that represents his life's work and impact on the community. Item 9b— Resolution 53-2025 Resolution adopting updated alternative methods of public notification for zoning notices in lieu of multiple mailings and signage posting for the proposed zoning amendment of the Heart of the Falls Neighborhood Overlay District.

Cody Melton, Fire Chief and Incident Commander, stated that the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) remains open. They are checking roads, proactively monitoring the situation, and getting out into the community to talk to citizens. This ordinance will expire on June 3, 2025, and will cover future rain events. Mike Mitchell, 1805 10th Street, said he did have water infiltrate into one of his homes, 2- 3 feet deep, but he knows there is work being done on the drainage issues at Quail Creek. The Texas Department of Emergency Management (TDEM) has forms for citizens to fill out regarding water infiltration and damage, and citizens were encouraged to contact staff for assistance. The motion carried by the following vote: CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 6, 2025 Page 10 PAGE 10 of 13 AGENDA ITEM NO.5. Ayes: Mayor Short, Councilors Battaglino, Brooks, Browning, Cobb, Flack, and Taylor.

Moved by Councilor Browning to approve Ordinance 21-2025. The motion was seconded by Councilor Taylor and, with no comments or questions from the public, carried by the following vote: Ayes: Mayor Short, Councilors Battaglino, Brooks, Browning, Cobb, Flack, and Taylor. Nays: None Item 12a — Staff Reports — Capital Investment Policy (CIP)— Stephen Calvert Stephen Calvert, Director of Finance/CFO, presented an update on capital planning, capital spending, capital budget, and the investment policy.

Councilor Cobb congratulated the family of Ray Gonzalez, Jr., thanked everyone involved in the EOC meetings over the past week, and said he was impressed with our response to the flood. He encouraged citizens to listen to what city officials are saying and watch official city releases. Hats off to Fire and Police, Public Information, and a special thanks to street department workers for working long hours in the elements and keeping us safe. Councilor Brooks thanked the Emergency Response team for being prepared for everything that was happening. He asked about the Duncan Channel and damage in 2015, and asked why it was not a priority to get it repaired before 2025. Mr. Schreiber reiterated that the damage was in 2019-2020, and records showed there was some trouble in 2018. Since then, a project was put together, designed, bid, and started in 2023. The delay has been due to waiting for the needed materials that were not available. Councilor Brooks asked if any repairs could have been done to help until the gates could be replaced, and Mr. Schreiber said the gates were broken and could not be moved or repaired. It has taken longer than we wanted, but it was due to things out of our control. It should be finished in the next 3-5 months, weather permitting.

Discussion of Adoption Timeline Chairman Mitchell turned the floor over to staff for discussions on a timeframe to implement the initiatives contained in the Heart of the Falls Neighborhood PAGE 1 of 3 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.d Neighborhood Revitalization Committee 2 April 1, 2025 Revitalization Plan, unanimously adopted by the City Council earlier that day. Initiatives discussed: • District Identity & Branding • Neighborhood Empowerment Zone (NEZ) • Neighborhood Revitalization Area Design Guidelines • Neighborhood Revitalization Property Maintenance Code • Zoning Amendments • Tree Clearing Program • Bridwell Park Improvements • Bright Nights, Safe Streets Initiative • Secure Steps & Rides Initiative • Enhance Existing Infrastructure • Neighborhood Beautification Initiative Staff explained the timeline showed the "Goal Term" of short, moderate, and long term. The next marker showed was "Completion" and the expected quarter and year give. Discussion with clarification was given over the entire timeline. Chairman Mitchell complimented staff and the Committee on all accomplishments over the past year and felt good about the proposed timeline moving forward. 2. Discussion & Presentation of Proposed Zoning Amendments Chairman Mitchell stated the next item up for discussion would be the zoning amendments as an element of the Heart of the Falls Neighborhood Revitalization Plan. Staff introduced the proposed ordinance "Section 4750 — Heart of the Falls Neighborhood Overlay District (HFNO). Staff advised the purpose for the overlay district was to provide regulations to account for the unique layout of the lots and buildings—like how far they need to be set back from the street or neighboring properties, where parking goes, and how accessory uses are handled. These rules go beyond what's normally required in the regular zoning code. To help keep the neighborhood's character intact, the development guidelines would apply, either alongside or instead of the usual zoning rules. Staff stated the overlay district would provide for reduced setbacks for residential uses and accessory structures, allow for accessory dwelling units by right, require no parking minimums for commercial uses, set a required parking minimum for new residential and accessory dwelling units, and allow for alternative paving materials. Light discussion among staff and the Committee with the question of when could this be sent to City Council for a vote. Staff advised they would have the ordinance ready for them to formally vote to recommend to City Council at the next meeting scheduled for April 29th V. OTHER BUSINESS 1.

Mr. Barry Mahler made a motion to adopt the July 9, 2019 minutes. Ms. Robyn Schreiber seconded the motion. PAGE 1 of 8 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.e Tax Increment Financing X3 Board Meeting PAGE 2 April 17,2025 Chairman Haney asked board members if anyone had any comments, and no comments were made. The motion was approved unanimously 6-0. III. UPDATE ON FINANCIAL STATUS Chairman Haney pointed out where the TIF3 started financially in 2010, where they ended in 2024, and stated that there has been a generous amount of revenue generated. Then the floor was opened up to questions or comments regarding the TIF3 finances. Mr. Mark Beauchamp asked Mr. Stephen Calvert how the money was invested. Mr. Calvert responded the excess reserves are in the City's local government investment pools, which generally at this time are providing a return of 5%. He added the funds are ready to go (liquid) and safe, and it is consistent with how city funds are invested. Mr. Calvert explained the investment pool manages funds for cities across the state, and they keep the maturities, by law, to less than one year(but the maturities on average are about 8 months). He also pointed out in 2019, the funds were not making much on interest, compared to today with interest earned about 4-5%. Councilor Tom Taylor asked if the TIF3 will expire on December 31st, 2029, what will happen at that point? Mr. Calvert answered that the excess tax collections, that increment, will go back to the taxing agency, both the county and the city. Adding, the TIF funds need to be committed by that time. Mr. Kinley Hegglund stated the funds would need to be committed, but it doesn't mean that every last dollar has to be spent by that date. Councilor Taylor then asked, if at that time, would the city have the option to extend it? Mr. Calvert said there is an option to extend it, by having to go through similar steps taken in 2009 when TIF3 was established. Ms. Robyn Schreiber asked if the biggest percentage of the funds would be going towards the flood zone? Chairman Haney said that would be a decision made by the board of directors and governing body. Ms. Karen Montgomery-Gagne added, we haven't had a project funded in the 15'h years the Zone has existed. She added, that's why there is a real interest (with only four years left until the published date of expiration) for determining how the board of directors would like to see the fund dollars reinvested. Ms. Schreiber said if there are plans here to work on all the flooding, those plans are laid out with the city, then do we as the board just have to say yes to do it? Ms. Montgomery-Gagne responded that is one consideration. She also said that to create a TIF zone, there are certain state requirements, and staff will be outlining those. There has to be a basic framework for how the tax dollars, that you anticipate capturing over the life of the zone, will be allocated (Project & Financial Plan — Addendum B of meeting packet). Ms. Schreiber then stated that in her mind, that's very attractive because, flooding is a huge problem. Not just the 100-year, but low-lying locations in the zone and Eastside. Ms. Schreiber commented that taking care of flooding problems is going to be the absolute base for continuing to build and grow the area and added most of the TIF3 funds should go to addressing infrastructure needs as much as possible. She noted if you can establish a good foundation with floodplain/infrastructure, businesses will be more attracted to develop in that area. Mr. Terry Floyd clarified when we talk about potential projects, there is only$1.34 million currently in the TIF3 Fund. While Mr. Floyd is relatively confident in the projections, the projections are just that — funds anticipated. When the board is thinking about projects or project funding requests coming forward, keep in mind current budget levels. Chairman Haney asked if there were any other comments or questions, there being none, closed this item as no action required. PAGE 2 of 8 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.e Tax Increment Financing#3 Board Meeting PAGE 3 April 17,2025 IV. Discussion & Public Comment Regarding Project Plan Priorities and Funding Considerations. Chairperson Haney stated this is a preliminary meeting to get an idea of where we've been and where we are with TIF3. Mr. Haney hopes the board of directors can get together in a few weeks so they can dive into details about funding priorities because he wants to be cognizant of the time that everyone is committing to this effort. He added that this is a big responsibility and the board will do a lot of work (will have a lot of requests for funding), and we want to make sure we do it properly Chairperson Haney requested staff provides updates from the meeting packet. Staff liaison Ms. Montgomery-Gagne indicated for some this may be a repeat because you've been involved with tax increment financing districts but for newer board members, this overview will hopefully provide a primer on all things TIF and reasoning how Eastside TIF3 developed. The Texas Local Government Code—Chapter 311: Tax Increment Financing Act defines parameters for how a municipality can develop a TIF Zone. Municipalities provide reporting to the comptroller's office. Staff explained TIF3 qualified under state criteria Chapter 311.005 Sec. 1, A—C; 2 with a substantial number of substandard slum or deteriorating structures, particularly after the 2007 flood event. Furthermore, predominance of defective, inadequate sidewalk, street layout and faulty lot layout in relation to size, accessibility or usefulness coupled with predominantly open or undeveloped and because of obsolete platting or deterioration of structures or other factors substantially impairs growth of the city or county. Staff noted, once qualifying criteria are identified, Chapter 311.011 sets the specific parameters for establishing a required project & financing plan for any TIF zone; each plan must address key elements, including: being adopted by ordinance, defining reinvestment boundaries, proposed projects, duration of the zone, current appraised value of taxable real properties, estimated captured appraisal value and description of financing for all estimated project costs and expected sources of revenue. The current adopted Project Plan for TIF3 established two project priorities: 1. infrastructure development—elements identified by the board and approved by council, specific improvements noted: flood control; streets (potential street closure/cul-de-sacs, etc.); and utilities (construct within public ROW or public easements as necessary for identified public improvement projects) 2. private development assistance—funds can be used for private projects that offer: employment; enhance tax base; and provide needed services. This funding priority was considered part of the plan implementation and a primary factor to enhance viability of the Eastside reinvestment area. When you're creating the TIF zone, a base tax/appraisal year must be established and all property within the proposed zone must be certified (tax value) by both the county tax official and the chief appraiser from the appraisal district. For TIF3, base year is all evaluation in 2008, that's a point in time that's frozen. All property valuation increases and tax value post 2008 is captured within the TIF3 increment fund. The two taxing entities participating in TIF3 are the city and county at 100%. From when we started at year zero (2009), through the 20-year time frame (through 2019) we captured that added valuation, as properties increased in value, as they're developed We captured a lot of the Habitat for Humanity's subdivision because Phase 2 and 3 of that hadn't been developed yet. The 2008 valuation, we had vacant land tracks. Then as those homes were built, we were able to capture that increased amount of tax and valuation. That's what's helping feed having funds to reinvest in this zone. Obviously, the goal is that after 2029, when your zone ends, you've got an increased level of economic activity, and you also have a much higher valuation. It essentially is reinvesting in itself, and it does not look like what it did 20 years prior. The TIF3 plan was developed in partnership with city staff and a Citizen's Advisory Committee — Eastside Revitalization Group. The TIF3 plan was endorsed by Wichita County Commissioners PAGE 3 of 8 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.e Tax Increment Financing*3 Board Meeting PAGE 4 April 17,2025 and approved by City Council via ordinance in September 2009 with an anticipated expiration Dec. 31, 2029. Both taxing entities participate through representation on the board of directors and contributing tax increment funds. Board of directors' chairperson is appointed annually by council. Any action item requesting increment funds requires both a TIF3 board of directors' recommendation and city council action. Staff informed the board, the TIF3 plan also outlines an ability to amend the zone's established boundary, how the funds are utilized (debt/increase in project cost), for what purpose and changing the duration of the zone. Ms. Montgomery-Gagne explained in order to amend TIF3 it requires action via recommendation by the board of directors, a public hearing by the governing body (city council) and subsequent adoption by ordinance. Documents must also be filed with the state comptroller's office. Ms. Montgomery-Gagne showed an image of the very linear TIF3 zone and explained state parameters have changed to allow up to 30% single-family properties within a zone. However, in 2008/09 during TIF3 development, the cap on single-family was 10%. With the significant number of residential lots throughout the Eastside, it was challenging being able to incorporate key transportation corridors and areas of potential for commercial/industrial development without capturing any single-family/duplex properties. TIF3 was centered on anticipated growth along MLK Jr. Blvd. which is a critical corridor within the community.Additional areas were considered when trying to identify anticipated development that could be captured within the zone, as the proposed Washington Village Apts. (2007/08) valuation was captured prior to construction so the added value above the base appraisal year of 2008 helped kick-start the increment fund. In addition, the Habitat for Humanity subdivision and more recently Family Dollar(7th/MLK Jr.) have enhanced tax/appraisal values for TIF3. Any new development post 2008 appraisal base year within the zone contributes to the fund that can be recommended for reinvestment by the board of directors. Staff moved into the next phase of discussion related to potential project options (public, public- private or private; e.g., public improvements — 75% total fund balance ($1.86M); private and/or joint private/public improvements — 25% ($621,034), etc.) the board of directors may opt to consider funding through 2029 when TIF3 expires. Chapter 311.010 allow TIF increment funds to be invested for the following items: roads, sidewalks and other public infrastructure, building façade preservation/rehab, remediation of contamination, demolition, affordable housing (current project plan does not finance acquisition requiring relocation), railroad and transit facilities, public buildings, school buildings and other potential projects. Focusing on public improvements, cities may acquire, construct, reconstruct or install public works, facilities or sites such as: utilities, streets, street lights, water/sewer facilities, pedestrian walkways, parks, flood & drainage facilities or parking facilities. It was asked if a house of worship would fit into this situation. Ms. Montgomery-Gagne said we do have some in the TIF zone and have spoken to our legal department. A religious affiliated entity may qualify because the focus is not the religious aspect of the project. Instead, the focus is on the proposed improvements(structural or site) and whether it meets the criteria for funding. Councilman Tom Taylor asked if staff could elaborate on the issue of sidewalks regarding if the funds could pay for sidewalks in the right of way (ROW) or on private property. Ms. Montgomery- Gagne responded that sidewalks would be in the public right of way. However, generally in front of a private property, it's the owner's responsibility, even though it's in the public right of way. She stated a number of years ago,there was the CDBG sidewalk training program where CDBG funds were set aside for community sidewalks that were being built in income-qualified areas. There is also the downtown 4B zone program that offers matching reimbursement grants that have been PAGE 4 of 8 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.e Tax Increment Financing#3 Board Meeting PAGE 5 April 17,2025 utilized to improve broken faulty sidewalks. Mr. Beauchamp asked if they could maximize TIF funds by using them to augment a grant opportunity? Ms. Montgomery-Gagne replied that she would need to check with legal, but generally you can't combine TIF with some of the other funding sources. But if a grant were obtained, there may be a possibility to use TIF funds as the local match portion — depends on the grant requirements. Mr. Terry Floyd added, "Also, it could be covered with something we could do like a sidewalk match program where somebody, a private person says, I can pay $2,000 and see the match at 50% or something similar to what occurs in downtown." Continuing, staff noted the overall goal for TIF3 was to create an attractive mixed-use environment. The board of directors can help accomplish this goal in multiple ways, such as considering infrastructure development projects or improvements or assisting private business development as these are the two general areas outlined in the adopted Project& Financial Plan. However, that does not mean the board of directors might want to consider modifications. Staff continued, noting Ms. Schreiber had mentioned flood control. That was a primary goal outlined in the plan, obviously, because the city was trying to recover from a massive flood that had severe impact on the Eastside community. Looking at trying to improve the floodplain areas so that we can see more development, make it easier to develop. As we'll hear from Mr. Tyson Traw in a few minutes, there are critical infrastructure needs in the Eastside community that do fall within TIF3 zone which are key items to consider as they meet state parameters for funding eligibility. There is also potential to consider private investment and business assistance as noted in the current plan. It was something that the initial board felt was important to put forward in the plan. Basically provide some assistance, leverage for a business, whether it be existing, expanding, or locating to the TIF3 zone. That was a primary factor in looking at the Eastside in needed businesses, needed services, and is it going to enhance the tax base?" Staff then pointed out different areas on the floodplain map, and showed if they were in the 100-year floodplain or the 500-year floodplain. Ms. Montgomery-Gagne referred members to their meeting packets which outlined various ideas/options as a starting point to spur discussion among the board. Highlighting potential public projects was Mr. Tyson Traw, Deputy Public Works Director, with information related to floodplain, storm drainage, water and sewer infrastructure project considerations. Mr. Traw referenced the floodplain map and TIF3 overlay and stated there are no feasible stormwater projects that are going to remove a sizable portion of TIF3 from the FEMA floodplain with TIF3 funds. Mr. Traw referenced Holiday Creek Channel project and it's cost almost four decades prior and it would take even more funds at today's costs to be able to make a significant impact to the identified flood zones. Mr. Traw focused on the following projects/details and addressed questions as they arose. Public Improvements: Drainage/Water/Sewer Infrastructure Public Works has numerous utility projects identified in the Eastside neighborhood However, only a few are located entirely within TIF #3 boundaries. There are needs related to drainage infrastructure projects identified in the 2011 Drainage Master Plan and could be eligible for a portion of costs being off-set with increment funds for the linear feet/land percentage within the zone. • Rosewood Drainage Project Rosewood project would enclose a section of open drainage within the zone at N. Rosewood/MLK Jr. Blvd. that drains into abutting Holiday Creek channel. The project improves stormwater drainage for 61 ac (in/out of zone), visual aesthetics, and safety. PAGE 5 of 8 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.e Tax Increment Financing#3 Board Meeting PAGE 6 April 17,2025 Project entails installation of a junction box and extending a pipe system to fill in open channel. Current estimated cost: $500,000 Mr. Traw stated that the Rosewood Drainage Project is the only viable drainage project right now that Public Works can bring to the Board. If the Board chooses a drainage project, this would be the better of the two, due to the costs and it would make a difference. Mr. Traw said the lines are 50-70 years old; not only are we losing water every time it leaks, we are also spending funds to repair them. This project will not only impact residents within the TIF zone in that certain block, but a significant number of residents outside of the TIF zone. Mr. Barry Mahler stated that he has considered the expense of drainage projects, and they are very expensive. Mr. Mahler asked if there is enough area outside of the drainage problems in the TIF zone that can be developed and used without going to the huge expense of doing the drainage, and what is there that we can utilize? He continued saying that when the TIF3 zone was originally created, the Eastside was a viable community in itself, with stores and was an operating community which eventually went away. People want that to come back. However, to come back you would need room to build grocery stores and basic services. So, the question is, if we can't afford to drain it (with the flood control projects) are there enough possibilities in there where we could develop it to create a viable community outside of where the drainage problems are? Mr. Traw agreed with him but pointed out that Family Dollar chose to develop their store there in the floodplain, because that is where the infrastructure was (Family Dollar raised the property with fill and made it about four feet above the adjacent grade.) For example, MLK, that is the infrastructure, that is in the floodplain. He stated that there are big challenges, but suggested for the members to go look at Family Dollar's site and see how they made it work. He said that"there is a lot of space that is not in the floodplain that could be developed, but private industry is telling us that's where they want to be." He didn't feel as though he had a specific answer to the question, but felt it would have to be on a case-by-case basis. Ms. Schreiber stated that she felt that if we were to spend the money at all, then to spend it on base line things that would attract the private businesses because they already want to be there. The board then discussed which areas along MLK were out of the floodplain. They mentioned the area across from the Community Health Care Center, which is a viable area since it is only in the 500-year floodplain. Mr. Jack Browne said that we have seen a little bit of population growth in our area and asked how do you do the best things that stimulate the property that people are likely to use? He added that Family Dollar picked a location that had the highest traffic, but they had put a lot of fill in to put it there though. He said all you can do is just make the corridor between 7td and Rosewood look better to where people want to go, adding that he could see his business being there and that is a positive step forward. Mr. Beauchamp said, or you can put the infrastructure in place to encourage further development. There was further discussion on where there is land in the zone that is not impacted by the 100- year floodplain, and added discussion about traffic flow to the area would be needed for growth. It was also discussed that there is a lot of work needed for that area, including utilities, engineering and excavation. • Morgan Lane Drainage Project Identified project drainage area involves 1,023 acres in the eastern portion of neighborhood with only a small portion within the TIF3 zone between MLK Jr. Blvd. and E. Fort Worth St. Potential benefits may include channel improvement from Big Wichita River to Old Henrietta Hwy. Current estimated cost: $2.4M; does not remove lots from floodplain; only small percentage within zone eligible for increment funds. PAGE 6 of 8 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.e Tax Increment Financing#3 Board Meeting PAGE 7 April 17,2025 Mr. Floyd pointed out there are other options besides just infrastructure. Things that could impact the community like sidewalks or different quality of life things. He stated there could be research done to create a comprehensive plan for that particular area to understand the engineering behind it and what it's really going to take. Mr. Traw said even though all of the engineering has not been done for this project, these items have been identified in a legitimate study. He said they know what they want to put there, and that is the first hurdle. He then spoke about water infrastructure and explained that they have two other projects which he pointed the locations of out to the Board. He spoke of dead-end mains, and explained that they are important from a water quality perspective. Adding that the Texas Commission of Environmental Quality requires the city to flush the dead-end main every month. We waste water every month because we must flush the mains by using fresh water, to keep the drinking water safe to drink. There is one area inside the TIF3 that we have nine mains. So, one project they would like to put together is figuring out a way to connect those mains making our water distribution system more efficient. That way we can stop wasting personnel hours and the wasting the water that we are required to waste (per the TCEQ)to keep the water quality safe to drink. The other project is a large 24-inchline that runs through the TIF zone, but it feeds the entire city. He explained that they have had this plan for this, but they don't have the funds for it this year. It would cost about $75,000. He said that this is part of a large valve replacement program. This particular valve was found to be non-operational when went to repair a line. Residents water had to be taken out of service from the Jasper Water Treatment Plant all the way to the river on MLK. That is how much water needed to be shut off because this one valve didn't work. The valve replacement program would allow the city to keep people in service when there is a leak. Water Distribution Projects: • Large Valve Replacement: Lake/Granger St.- replacement of a critical non-working valve on a 24-inch water line impacting water service within the zone. Project timeline: 2025 Current estimated cost: $75,000 • Dead-end Main Water Lines: Area from RR/Spur 447 to Homes Ave. and Brick St. —majority of area/mains within zone and are eligible for funding. Project would replace and reconnect up to 8 dead end water line mains where water currently stagnates and Public Works staff must flush lines. Current estimated cost: $300,000 • Dallas St. Water Line Replacement: Replace old pipeline for improved water service/flow. Current estimated cost: $50,000- $100,000 as only portion within zone. Then, Mr. Traw spoke about the roads. (But stated that they haven't identified any streets yet.) He explained that most of the major thoroughfares in the TIF zone are not city or county maintained and said that they are TxDot. Money would need to be used on side streets and is best to be used where they affect the most people. Opportunity to rehabilitate failing city streets in need of additional maintenance. Option to review the number of streets in need of repair within the zone utilizing Public Works Street Rehab Inventory, prioritize condition/need, then determine total cost and what percentage of increment funds the board wants to dedicate to this improvement project through 2029. PAGE 7 of 8 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.e Tax Increment Financing#3 Board Meeting PAGE 8 April 17,2025 Consideration: Public Works estimate for major street rehabilitation costs- $1 M per lane mile or $1 M per mile (2 lane) segment. Pending staff research, option to allocate a set-aside of$2M It was stated by Ms. Schreiber that the board needs to focus on the groundwork, and that if you build it—they will come(referring to getting more traffic in that area.) Mr. Traw noted that it costs about one million dollars per lane mile, or one million for half a mile of a two-lane road. Sidewalk Repair/Installation Numerous areas within TIF zone with faulting, defective or inadequate sidewalks. Option to review key pedestrian corridors within the zone and determine linear feet of sidewalk for either repair or installation. Mr. Traw spoke about sidewalks and stated that it cost about $40-50 per linear foot of sidewalk. So, something that could be done is putting in pedestrian improvements Consideration: Sidewalk Repair Program coordinated by Public Works for improved bid pricing; coordinated annually. Estimated cost for sidewalk (standard 4ft width) $40-50 per linear foot which does not include ramps or special features. Option to set aside funds for this pedestrian connectivity/visual improvement project as an annual or lump-sum allocation over remaining 4- years. Funding level dependent on need identified in relation to other zone priorities. e.g., Board could consider a lump sum of $750,000 for 15,000 linear feet of sidewalk improvement. Mr. Mahler asked one of our local guests what she needs at her location, and she responded that she needs curbside/sidewalks, and also said more lighting could be used there. There was discussion about water projects, lighting & sidewalks for safety, and infrastructure. All which are important to the community in the TIF zone, but there will need to be additional discussion and education for the Board, so the discussion will be continued at the next TIF3 meeting. V. OTHER BUSINESS No discussion or action was required. a) Next Meeting Date—TBD —consideration for April 30 or May 6 VI.

Conduct a public hearing and take action on a recommendation of an ordinance amending the Code of Ordinances, Appendix B: Zoning, creation of a special overlay district and development regulations, PAGE 1 of 4 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.f Neighborhood Revitalization Committee 2 April 29, 2025 Section 4750 — Heart of the Falls Neighborhood Overlay District (HFNO) to Planning & Zoning. Chairman Mitchell opened the public meeting at 1 :46 p.m. Staff briefly discussed the proposed zoning amendment, stating the amendment was previously presented at the meeting on April 15th, 2025, with direction from the Committee to move forward on amending the zoning ordinance. Staff stated there had been two revisions since the last meeting and wanted to discuss with the Committee to ensure it was agreeable to the Committee. The first revision discussed was; Section 4752 — Permitted Uses The following uses are permitted in the Heart of the Falls Overlay District (HFOD): 1 . Grocery Stores in a Limited Commercial (LC) zoning district. Staff advised this revision was to allow for the use of grocery stores in the Limited Commercial (LC) zoning district in the overlay. This opportunity would give greater development options in the neighborhood for grocery related businesses. The final revision discussed was; Section 4757 — HFNO Additional Setbacks Additional setback shall be provided by non-single-family, non-single-family detached or non-duplex residential uses in the manner prescribed in this section where any one of the following conditions occur: 1. When these uses are located adjacent to single-family, single-family detached or duplex residential use, or abut an alley which is adjacent to a single-family, single-family detached or duplex use, no portion of the structure shall be closer to single-family, single-family detached or duplex property line than the height of that portion, except that the minimum setbacks stated in [subsection] three shall apply. 2. [When these uses are:] A. Adjacent to single-family, single-family detached or duplex residential use, no portion of the structure shall be closer to a single-family, single-family detached or duplex residential property line than the height of that portion, except that the minimum setback stated in subsection 3 shall apply. However, when the residential use property line abuts an alley or street right-of-way, the city aqueduct, or a body of water such as Sikes Lake or Wichita River, the additional setback shall be computed by including their width. 3. Minimum Setbacks: PAGE 2 of 4 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.f Neighborhood Revitalization Committee 3 April 29, 2025 A. Multifamily dwelling units, townhouses, condominiums, mobile home parks and subdivisions, civic uses, and commercial uses shall have an increased setback of; a. A minimum of five feet if the structure is a single story and less that fifteen feet in height or; b. If structure is two-stories or more than fifteen feet in height the setback shall be equal to the height of the structure. Staff advised the setbacks would be to protect residential uses from more commercial uses that could potentially develop in the neighborhood. Staff gave a proposed timeline of current initiatives in the works to be presented in the near future. Staff advised currently they will have an agenda item at each of the City Council meetings from May 6th, all the way to July 1st Mr. Terry Floyd stated he and staff are watching the Senate and House bills closely as they could affect some proposals moving forward. Chairman Mitchell asked if there were any comments from the public. Mr. Browne stated he was anticipating the incentives discussed in previous meetings and was disappointed to not see any of those elements in the proposed zoning amendments. Staff advised those elements could be found in the Neighborhood Empowerment Zone (NEZ) packet that was currently being worked on and that he would be seeing soon. With no further comments from the public Chairman Mitchell closed the public hearing at 1 :57 p.m and opened the floor to discussion among the Committee. With no further discussion Mr. Garcia made a motion to favorably recommend the proposed zoning ordinance amendment as presented to Planning & Zoning and the City Council. Mrs. Arnold-Ogden seconded the motion. The vote passes unanimously 3-0. V. OTHER BUSINESS 1. Updates A. Artist Update — Wichita Falls Alliance for Arts & Culture Mrs. Arnold-Ogden gave an update regarding the Bridwell Futsal court murals and stated due to the in-climate weather the striping company that will be restriping the courts was delayed, which in turn delayed the artist, Mr. Jeremy Jarvis who had to push back his arrival date by two weeks at the date of the meeting. While discussing updates Mr. Floyd stated the owner of 1807 Kemp Boulevard had discussions with City staff and was working to evict the squatters. Once that is completed he stated he would be moving forward with demolition of the structure. PAGE 3 of 4 AGENDA ITEM NO.6.f Neighborhood Revitalization Committee 4 April 29, 2025 VI.

This combined capacity would place the City well above the Stage 1 trigger of 65% of the City's water conservation/ drought contingency ordinance. The City has been under Stage 1 water use restrictions since October of 2024. With the recent rain events and the increase in reservoir capacities, it would seem appropriate to consider ending the Stage 1 water use restrictions currently in place. City staff have had internal discussions regarding this issue and have also sought the input of the Water Resources Commission, which voted unanimously on May 6th to end Stage 1 water use restrictions. The water conservation, drought contingency ordinance under section 106-1986 (j) requires a majority vote of the council to terminate each stage of the water conservation ordinance. A resolution for your consideration is attached to end Stage 1 water use restrictions of the City's drought contingency plan and to resume normal year-round water use restrictions. ® Public Works Director ® Assistant City Manager ASSOCIATED INFORMATION: Resolution ® Budget Office Review ® City Attorney Review ® Interim City Manager Approval PAGE 1 OF 2 PAGES AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.0 Resolution No. Resolution announcing the termination of Stage 1 Drought Watch water restrictions and the resumption of the regular water conservation measures described in Section 106-186(a) of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Wichita Falls WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 106-186(i) of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Wichita Falls, the Director of Public Works shall declare that each water restriction trigger level has been reached and that the water use restrictions for each respective stage are in effect.

MAYOR ATTEST: City Clerk PAGE 2 OF 2 PAGES AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.0 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA May 20, 2025 ITEM/SUBJECT: Public hearing and discussion regarding a proposed addition to the City's Circle Trail system adjacent to Lake Wichita within City-owned property. INITIATING DEPT: Public Works STRATEGIC GOAL: Provide Quality Infrastructure STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE: (1) Continue to Improve Recreational Amenities; (2) Continue the Bicycle-Friendly Initiative COMMENTARY: This public hearing and discussion concern the proposed completion of the Circle Trail along City-owned property adjacent to Lake Wichita. This segment would connect existing portions of the trail system and help close a significant gap on the north side of the Lake. City staff will present information regarding the proposed alignment, funding sources, and any potential environmental or engineering constraints. The project area includes City-owned right-of-way and property that minimizes the need for easement acquisition, which is expected to streamline the implementation process. This hearing provides an opportunity for the public and the Council to offer feedback prior to submission of the TxDOT grant. The goal is to ensure the project meets connectivity, safety, and accessibility standards while remaining consistent with long-term plans for the Circle Trail and Lake Wichita revitalization. Maps of the proposed alignment will be available before, during, and after the meeting at the MPEC to assist the public and adjacent property owners with any questions they may have. City staff will also be available for questions during that time. No action will be taken by the City Council at this meeting. A second public hearing and input opportunity will be conducted at the June 3, 2025, City Council meeting. ® Director, Public Works ® Assistant City Manager ASSOCIATED INFORMATION: Location Map ® Budget Office Review ® City Attorney Review ® Interim City Manager Approval PAGE 1 OF 2 PAGES AGENDA ITEM NO. 10.A WICHITA FALLS CIRCLE TRAIL mgmoristipliemigix.,„, _ - lik TOTAL; 24.4 MILES OF TRAIL AROUND THE CITY II EXISTING TRAIL-23.3 MILE — ▪ UNDER CONSTRUCTION•0.3 MILES ▪ PROPOSED TRAIL•D.R MILES r 1 -1'4 --11 Yr`' 1 -.#• n . .143 UNDER Ls°wrr>e =4 44 * aU�r CONSTRUCTION y■=F_*1* # x-■ 1 1em ---- I - 15T �1 11 .�p� :_ II III" � .r.p" * � f46 ..mm'�r * # .+A O.rr7frrn BLIFF wI '-T w � M3#ti ;. * 41 PMi'r `,w ',tid77.7RFAR�A rm ` w..11141 ram-_■. r,�a ■or r� + • 1 f r%�t �i 1.047�fl#Yti i�Y o ,_ i• Mh. • Y-i*!•.III ai r _ 1 � 1f�F�Rflf���+I�FfJI��I_� �d __ � '" ■■■r.-'-- i� � Ilii.
