Agenda Title: Resolution authorizing the City Manager to award bid and contract for the
2025 Sewer Budget Utility Improvement Project Phase 1 to Insituform Technologies, LLC
in the amount of $1,144,111.00.
Council Action to be Taken: Approving the resolution and award of contract
Department Submitted: Public Works/Engineering
Staff Contact: Russell Schreiber, Director of Public Works
Alex Sandstedt, Project Manager
1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
The proposed resolution would authorize the City Manager to award bid and contract for
the 2025 Sewer Budget Utility Improvement Project Phase 1 to Insituform Technologies,
LLC in the amount of $1,144,111.00.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
On August 7, 2025, Insituform Technologies, LLC, selected via BuyBoard's competitive
process, submitted a proposal for the 2025 Sewer Budget Utility Improvement Project
Phase 1. The project will use trenchless pipe-bursting to rehabilitate deteriorated vitrified
clay sewer lines on E. Wenonah Boulevard, Bell Street, and Rivercrest Drive, where
access and maintenance are challenging. It will also repair and coat numerous failing
manholes citywide with high-performance epoxy to prevent corrosion, reduce infiltration,
and extend their service life.

Approval of the resolution authorizing the contract
5. FUNDING SOURCE
Funds are available in the FY 2025 sewer rehab budget.
565-8170-77260
6. TIMELINE
Construction of this project should require approximately one hundred fifty (150)
consecutive days to complete.
7. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS
If this project is not awarded, the maintenance issues of the old vitrified clay pipe will
persist, to the detriment of adjacent residents. Manholes that could be otherwise
preserved with epoxy coating will further deteriorate due to corrosion, or continue to allow
infiltration in the wastewater collection system. Infiltration overloads the capacity of the
collection system and can also create issues at the Resource Recovery Plant.

Transmittal Letter
Agenda Item Number: 6.B
Agenda Title: Resolution authorizing the City Manager to approve a change order to
purchase order 22501013 with Andritz Separation Inc. for an additional $87,750.00 for
additional work for repairs of frame members of a Belt Filter Press at the Wichita Falls
Resource Recovery Facility at 1005 River Road.
Council Action to be Taken: Approval of resolution authorizing change order
Department Submitted: Public Works
Staff Contact: Russell Schreiber, Director of Public Works
Mark Southard, Utility Operations Manager
1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
The proposed change order would allow Andritz Separation Inc. to rehab and/or replace
critical internal frame components, as outlined in their quote, for the Belt Filter Press at
the Wichita Falls Resource Recovery Facility.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
Council originally approved the Belt Filter Press rehabilitation at the meeting on
November 19, 2024 in the amount of $348,851 . Upon initiating their work in July and
dismantling the equipment revealed that several critical internal structural members, not
included in the original rehabilitation quote, were significantly corroded. These frame
members are internal to the Belt Filter Press, and they could not be viewed until the
exterior parts of the press were removed for rehabilitation.
Refurbishment or replacement of these members is essential for the completion of the
belt press rehab project.

4. RECOMMENDATION
Approval of resolution authorizing the change order
5. FUNDING SOURCE
Funding is available from budgeted purchase savings in capital accounts for
pumps/motors and instruments/apparatus. Charged to account 565-8170-77340.
6. TIMELINE
Upon approval of the change order, Andritz plans to return to the facility to remove the
frame members and repair or replace them at their shop. They will then resume the
completion of the refurbishment of the entire belt press. This project should be completed
within six months.
7. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS
A new Belt Filter Press costs in excess of $700,000, and a new press would not fit the
same footprint as the old press; therefore, the entire sludge processing equipment and
support structures as well as the conveyance system would have to be demolished,
removed and replaced.
8. ATTACHMENTS
Quote number 21220349 for the additional rehabilitation costs and services.

During the disassembly of our Belt Filter Press(BFP),our Andritz Field Service Technician
uncovered extensive corrosion on the internal side of the frame members.This corrosion
wasn't visible until we disassembled the BFP,which is why it went unnoticed previously.
Upon discovering this issue,we immediately put a hold on the project to allow our Product
Specialist to evaluate the condition of the affected frame members.After a thorough
assessment,we have the following recommendations:
For the intermediate frame and cross members that are severely corroded,we recommend
immediate replacement.This is crucial to ensure the integrity and safety of the BFP. For the
remaining frame members,we suggest sandblasting and re-galvanizing to prevent any
further corrosion.Please note that the new and re-galvanized frame members will not be
painted with Andritz yellow epoxy.
Below are the additional frame members that require replacement.
• Intermediate frame members#5R&6L

1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
The existing roof at the Central Fire Station is 25 years old and has exceeded its useful
life and requires replacement in lieu of repair. Approval of the resolution would award a
contract to Lydick-Hooks Roofing Co. of Wichita Falls, Inc. to replace the roof.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
The Building Maintenance division reached out to Lydick-Hooks for repair estimates for
the roof on Fire Station #1 . It was determined that the roof is 25 years old and had
exceeded its warranty of 20 years and needs replacement rather than repair. Lydick-
Hooks Roofing Co. of Wichita Falls, Inc. provided a quote for replacement. The City has
contracted with Lydick-Hooks to maintain and repair at many of the City facilities. Lydick-
Hooks is a member of the TIPS purchasing cooperative, which allows the City to
purchase directly from them without having to go out to bid. Construction of this project
should require 3 to 4 weeks to complete.

Agenda Title: Resolution approving the programs and expenditures of the Wichita Falls
Type B Sales Tax Corporation (4B) by amending the budget to include funding in an
amount not to exceed $104,100 to White Realty Management Company to assist with
renovations at the City National Building at 807 8th Street downtown.

Staff Contact: Paul Menzies, Assistant City Manager
1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
The applicant proposes structural repairs to the City National Building's parking garage
and modernization of the twin elevators, for a total project cost of $1 ,040,100. The 4B
Board conducted a public hearing and approved the request at their most recent meeting.
The $104,100 funding approved by the 4B Board represents 10°/0 of the total project cost.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
The 4B Corporation has a long history of funding assistance to upgrade and/or maintain
buildings in the downtown core, generally not exceeding 10°/0 of the overall project costs.
This project would be a continuation of that program/commitment. Repairs to the parking
garage include concrete support tees, beams, curbs, and ramp structures. Modernization
of the elevators is necessary to improve reliability. The 4B Board did not choose to fund
repairs for the Oil & Gas Building's cooling towers, as it is otherwise eligible for the
corporation's downtown matching grant program.

This project includes:
Parking Garage Structural Repairs
Total Cost.estimate:$782,582.
The City National Building Parking Garage,constructed in 1464,provides daily access for over 250 downtown
employees.A recent structural assessment by Wiss,Janney,FlstnerAssociates,inc (WJ identified critical repair
needs affecting concrete support tees,beams,curbs,and ramp structures—all necessary to ensure continued safe
use.
WIE guided the competitive bidding process to help us Identify Western Specialty Contractors as the selected
contractor and will oversee their work throughout construction,The repairs will require temporary closure of the
garage,Fortunately,this will present a cost-saving opportunity to complete related upgrades at the same time(see
following 2 items,beelowl„
This protect is essential to maintaining downtown's accessibility and functionality.A sudden closure could displace
hundreds of vehicles into already constrained street parking,creating unnecessary congestion and discouraging
visitation to nearby businesses.Ensuring the continued availability of this garage directly supports commerce.

Elevator Modernization
Total Cost Estimate:$258,417
The two elevators serving the City National Building parking garage are aging and increasingly prone to reliability
issues due to outdated parts and diminishing serviceability.Aspen Elevator,a long-term contractor with deep
experience downtown,has agreed to complete the modernization while the garage is already shut down for
structural work.
Modernizing these systems now helps ensure consistent service for tenants and visitors while minimizing the risk
of unexpected outages or entrapments.This proactive approach allows us to preserve functionality,avoid reactive
shutdowns,and maintain the reliability that downtown workers and businesses depend on every day.
Cooling Tower Repair
Total Cost Estimate:$64,100
The structural supports beneath the cooling tower at the Oil&Gas Building are in poor condition and require
repair to prevent mechanical failure.Left unaddressed,the issue could compromise the building's ability to
maintain safe and consistent climate control for tenants.
We have engaged LRW Fabricators to complete the necessary steel support repairs,including the installation of
beam columns and galvanized support beams,with engineering provided by Shinpaugh Engineering.While this
repair is not optional,coordinating it during,the scheduled garage closure will reduce overall costs by allowing
contractors to stage equipment directly on-site instead of operating from offsite locations.
This approach helps minimize disruption and cost while addressing a critical need.
To summarize the full scope of this initiative,the table below outlines the estimated costs of each project.
Project Estimated Cost
Garage Repairs $782,582
Elevator Modernization $258,417
Cooling Tower Repair $64,100

We are respectfully requesting a contribution of$110,510(approximately 10%of the total cost)through the 4B
Sales Tax Corporation. While we are committed to seeing these improvements through,4B support will
significantly strengthen our ability to complete all phases of the work efficiently and without delay.This assistance
enables a unified approach during the planned construction window,avoiding fragmented outcomes,phased
disruptions,or cost escalation tied to deferred work.
Together,these infrastructure upgrades represent a major reinvestment in the long-term success of Downtown
Wichita Falls.By reinforcing building systems that support hundreds of daily occupants and visitors—and that
collectively help define the function and character of our downtown core-this project package advances the goals
of public safety,business retention,civic pride,and sustainable growth.
We appreciate your consideration and would be glad to answer any questions you may have.

Transmittal Letter
Agenda Item Number: 6.J
Agenda Title: Resolution authorizing modifications to Resolution No. 69-2024 relating to
OPG Sun Valley Apartments, LP. acquisition/redevelopment of property at 1315 E.
Central Fwy., Wichita Falls by developer Overland Property Group and NORTEX Housing
Finance Corporation; and authorizing City Manager to enter into a Payment in Lieu of
Taxes (PILOT) agreement.
Council Action to be Taken: Approving modifications to PILOT agreement
Department Submitted: Development Services
Staff Contact: Terry Floyd, Director of Development Services
Karen Montgomery-Gagne, Principal Planner
1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
Approval of the resolution would amend the existing PILOT agreement with OPG,
approved by the City Council in June 2024, by extending its "start date" by one year to
2026. A fire at the complex approximately one (1) year ago has delayed initiation of the
renovation project. The amended agreement would result in an increase in the overall
payment to the city over the 20-year timeframe by $35,000 to a total of more than
$550,000.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
In June 2024, Council approved a Resolution entering into a PILOT agreement with
Overland Property Group (OPG) and NORTEX Housing Finance Corporation (HFC) to
allow for a $23.5 million renovation to the Sun Valley apartment complex at 1315 Central
Freeway (just east of Legacy High School). Due to unforeseen circumstances, the
property closing was delayed. OPG and Nortex are now requesting the PILOT be revised
PAGE 1 OF 14 PAGES
AGENDA ITEM NO. 6.J
for an anticipated closing later this month. The proposed changes include moving the first
year of the PILOT payment to 2026 and updating the previously assessed property value
to reflect the current 2025 appraisal value. If approved, this revised agreement will result
in an additional $35,000 in total revenue compared to the June 2024 agreement and over
$550,000 in total revenue over the next 20 years. The revisions in this PILOT will also
allow for OPG to close on the property and begin a $23.5 million renovation to the Sun
Valley apartments to provide quality low-income rental units in the community.
3. BOARD REVIEW/CITIZEN INPUT
Public hearing June 18, 2024, conducted by City Council with no objections.
4. RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval.
5. FUNDING SOURCE
No city funds will be used for this project.
6. TIMELINE
OPG Sun Valley Apartments, LP. revised timeline:
• June 18, 2024 - Council approved Resolution No. 69-2024 to enter into a PILOT
agreement with OPG and NORTEX HFC.
• August 2024 - Acquisition anticipated with construction in the fall 2024, but was
delayed as a result of unforeseen circumstances.
• August 2025 — OPG property closing
• Sept. 4, 2025 — OPG anticipated acquisition of facility
• November 2025 —Demolition/construction (12-14 months)
• January 2027 — Anticipated project completion
7. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS
Without the PILOT agreement, the significant investment planned to renovate the 132-
unit complex will be significantly delayed or may not occur at all.

_, 2025 is entered into by and among the City of Wichita Falls, Texas ("City"), OPG Sun
Valley Apartments, LP, a Texas limited partnership (as the "Owners") and Nortex Housing
Finance Corporation ("Nortex"), a Texas public, nonprofit housing finance corporation,
upon terms and conditions set forth herein.
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Owners are seeking to rehabilitate existing low-income housing in
Wichita Falls, Texas by acquiring leasehold ownership of Sun Valley Apartments, more
fully described on Exhibit A (such apartment complex and land on which it is situated
hereinafter referred to as the "Property"); and,
WHEREAS, Nortex will partner with the Owners to provide certain financial
incentives for the Property, and to participate in the ownership structure for the Property
via Nortex subsidiaries acting as general partner of the Owners and as fee title owner and
ground lessor of the land on which the Sun Valley Apartments development is situated;
and,
WHEREAS, the participation of Nortex with the Owners is anticipated to generate
a property tax exemption for the Property; and,
WHEREAS, the resolution of no objection of City to Nortex's application to the
Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs is critical for the Owners to obtain
2024 Housing Tax Credits; and,
WHEREAS, the Owners wish to make a tax-equivalent payment in support of City's
mission, goals, and objectives; and,
WHEREAS, City finds that this Agreement serves the public purpose of promoting
economic growth.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed by the parties hereto that:
1. For such time as the Property qualifies for exemption from property taxes, the
parties hereto approve the PILOT payment schedule as shown on Exhibit B, and the
Owners agree to make 20 annual payments to City based on the payment amounts shown
therein. In the event that the Owners continue to own the Property for more than 20 years,
and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Owners agree to continue to make
annual PILOT payments to City based upon a continuation of the 3°/o annual increase
shown in Exhibit B for every subsequent year the Owners own the Property and the
Property receives an exemption from taxes.
2. The first PILOT payment is due from the Owners to City on or before the
later of October 1 , 2026 or the date Owner acquires leasehold ownership of the Property.
Annual PILOT payments will be due on or before October 1 each following year for which
payment is being made. If the Owners fail to pay the PILOT payment to the City within
PAGE 6 OF 14 PAGES
AGENDA ITEM NO. 6.J
such time, and such failure continues for ten days after written notice of such default to
the Owners by the City, the City shall have the right to exercise any and all legal remedies
available to it to obtain such payment, subject to the limitations provided for in paragraph
6. The Owners agree to pay the statutory amounts for penalties, interest, attorney's fees,
and costs of collection applicable to suits to recover delinquent ad valorem taxes under
Texas Tax Code Chapter 33 for failure to remit timely PILOT payments to City as a
contractual obligation even though the Property will be exempt from local ad valorem
taxation.
3. All payments shall be made payable to City of Wichita Falls and shall be
sent to the Director of Finance, City of Wichita Falls, Wichita Tower, 705 8th Street, Wichita
Falls, Texas 76301.
4. Severability. To the extent permitted by law, a holding by any court that any
part or any provision in this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect
shall not affect any other provision, and this Agreement shall be construed as if the invalid,
illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been a part of the Agreement.
5. Non-Waiver of Rights. This Agreement may not be amended except in a
writing specifically referring to this Agreement and signed by the parties hereto, with the
prior written consent of the Senior Lender (as defined herein) during such period of time
that the Senior Loan (as defined herein) is outstanding. Any right created under this
Agreement may not be waived, except in a writing specifically referring to this Agreement
and signed by the party waiving the right (and with respect to Owners, the prior written
consent of the Senior Lender during such time that the Senior Loan is outstanding).
Provided, however, termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the Owners, or its
successors, from any payments due City prior to such termination.
6. Liquidated Damages; No Lien. If for any reason the Owners should fail to
make the PILOT payment in accordance with paragraph 3, the parties agree that (i) the
amount of taxes that would have been imposed upon the Property plus (ii) the amount of
any interest calculated in accordance with paragraph 2; plus (iii) City's reasonable
attorney's fees and costs of collection should any action be required in order to compel
payment of all such amounts shall serve as liquidated damages from the Owners to City.
Furthermore, such amounts owed herein shall be personal to the Owners and no other
partner, investor or lender of the Owners. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed
as creating a lien against the Property, nor shall the City be entitled to place a lien on the
Property for any unpaid portion of the PILOT payment or any related expenses and
payables.
7. Notices. Any notice provided or permitted to be given pursuant to this
Agreement must be in writing and may be served by depositing same in the United States
mail, addressed to the party to be notified, postage prepaid, certified mail, with return
receipt requested, by fax (with confirmation of receipt), by personal delivery service or

Property Group no longer participates in the ownership of the Owners: (i) Nortex shall
promptly notify the City; and (ii) Nortex and the Owners shall not continue to seek and/or
receive an exemption for the Property without the express consent of the City.

purposes set forth herein. The parties hereto agree that the PILOT payments are the sole
obligations of the Owners and that neither Nortex nor any affiliates or subsidiaries of

owner and ground lessor of the land on which the Sun Valley Apartments development is
situated) shall have any obligation to make such PILOT payments.
14. Senior Lender Notice and Cure. The City acknowledges that Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association (together with its successors and assigns, the "Senior
Lender") is providing a loan to finance all or part of the acquisition, rehabilitation,
equipping and operation of the Property (the "Senior Loan"). During such time that the
Senior Loan is outstanding, the City shall deliver to Senior Lender a copy of each notice
delivered by the City to the Owners pursuant to this Agreement concurrently with the
delivery of such notice to the Owners. Neither giving nor failing to give notice to Senior
Lender pursuant to this Section 14 will affect the validity of any notice given by the City to
the Owner. For a period of ninety (90) days after Senior Lender's receipt of such notice,
Senior Lender will have the right, but not the obligation, to cure any default of Owners
under this Agreement, and the City shall accept or reject such cure on the same basis as
if tendered by the Owners.
Executed to be effective as of the date set forth above.

further actions were taken on the items in executive session.
3. RECESS.
Mr. Fidelie asked if the public had any questions or comments. Since there were none, he
called for a short recess of the meeting at 3:55 p.m.
Mr. Fidelie called the regular monthly WF4BSTC Board Meeting back to order at 4:06 p.m.
4. Report of financial condition (current, past& planned budget& expenditures); and
other administrative actions.
Mr. Paul Menzies addressed the Board to provide a brief financial update. Mr. Menzies
noted that sales tax revenues remain inconsistent from month to month but are overall slightly
ahead of last year. Mr. Menzies further stated that the Board currently has approximately $5.9
million in unencumbered cash, taking into account recently approved projects and funds from
expired downtown projects that have been rolled back into the budget. Two "Restoring the Past"
projects were not completed and expired at the end of January.
5. Approval of Minutes of December 6, 2024.
Mr. Dave Clark moved to approve the minutes as submitted. Seconded by Mr. Nick
Schreiber,the motion carried 6-0.
6. Public hearing regarding a funding request by Hotter'n Hell Hundred (HHH) to
purchase a new start-line arch for use by HHH and other community events.
Mr. Fidelie opened the public hearing at 4:08 p.m.
Mr. Menzies introduced Mr. David Coleman, Chairman of the Hotter'n Hell Hundred,
explaining that David approached him before Christmas seeking community partners for a project.
Mr. Menzies saw it as a great opportunity for the Board to consider, benefiting both the event and
its promotion. The request is for $4,000, covering half the cost of an arch, and he then turned it
over to Mr. Coleman for further details.
Mr. Coleman presented a funding request to assist in purchasing a new start line arch for
the HHH event. He explained that while the race remains a significant event, with 7,400 riders
last year, costs have risen sharply since COVID-19. The price of ice, insurance, and tents has
doubled, increasing the financial burden on the organization. Despite these challenges, they are
hesitant to raise entry fees too much to avoid discouraging participation.
To help offset rising costs, Mr. Coleman emphasized the importance of securing more
community partners and identified the WF4BSTC as an ideal partner. He requested $4,000,which
would cover half the cost of a $8,000 start-line arch. The remaining funds would come from
Hotter'n Hell ($2,000) and Leadership Wichita Falls ($2,000).
The arch would be a long-term investment for the event and would first be used at THOR
on April 12th in Lucy Park, which typically attracts around 1,400 participants from across the
region. The arch would also serve as a promotional tool, featuring sponsor banners to showcase
community support.
Mr. Coleman concluded by inviting board members to ask questions and reiterated the
value of the arch in enhancing both the Hotter'n Hell Hundred and other local events.

AGENDA ITEM NO.7.a
Mr. Clark asked for clarification about the arch's size and placement. Mr. Coleman
Coleman clarified that while the arch cannot be used for the main road ride start on Saturday
morning (as it would need to span the entire width of Scott Avenue), it will be placed at the Finish
Line Village and used at multiple events, including: Mountain bike race (Friday morning); Gravel
ride (Saturday evening, Wichita Falls Brewing Co.); Trail run (Sunday morning); Criterium races
(Friday& Sunday, depending on timing); THOR (April 12th in Lucy Park); and potential future use
in other community events.
Mr. Schreiber researched larger arch options and questioned if this would replace the
giant inflatable HHH arch at the main start line. Mr. Coleman confirmed that this is not a
replacement for the inflatable arch at the start of the road race, but rather an upgrade from the
smaller Endurance House inflatable arch, which blew over in the wind last year. Mr. Schreiber
mentioned a larger 35ft arch costing $11,000, but Mr. Coleman explained that a larger structure
would be difficult to transport and store and is impractical for smaller events. The preferred arch
weighs approximately 590 lbs and is manageable for two people to set up in about 30 minutes.
The total cost of the arch is$8,000,with funding split as follows: $2,000 from Hotter'n Hell,
$2,000 from Leadership Wichita Falls, and $4,000 requested from the WF4BSTC Board. Mr.
Schreiber emphasized that HHH is a major Wichita Falls event, and he would support a larger
arch if storage and use were feasible.However, he ultimately supported the HHH's chosen option.
Mr. Steve Garner and Mr. Glenn Barham raised concerns about anchoring the arch to
withstand the wind and prevent it from blowing over like the previous inflatable arch. Mr. Coleman
stated that the pillar base is wide, and they will work with the manufacturer to ensure stability.
Concrete block anchors may also be an option. Mr. Barham suggested using vented banners to
reduce wind resistance.
Mr. Fidelie closed the public hearing at 4:51 p.m.
7. Executive Sessions
Mr. Fidelie adjourned the meeting into an executive session at 4:20 p.m. pursuant to Texas
Government Code § § § 551.087, 551.072, and 551.071. He announced the meeting back into
regular session at 4:51 p.m. The subjects posted in the Notice of Meeting were deliberated, and
no votes or further actions were taken on the items in executive session.
8. Consideration of a funding request by Hotter'n Hell Hundred (HHH) to purchase a
new start-line arch for use by HHH and other community events.
Mr. Fidelie moved to authorize funding in the amount of up to $4,000 to assist the Wichita
Falls Bicycling Club with the purchase of a new start-line arch for use during the HHH and other
community events. Seconded by Mr. Garner,with no further comments orguestions,the motion,
carried 6-0.
9. Adjourn.
Mr. Fidelie asked if the public had any questions or comments. Since there were none, he

Mr. Paul Menzies addressed the Board to give the financial report. Mr. Menzies noted
that sales tax revenue for the current month is expected next week and is trending flat overall for
the year, with a slight increase. The available fund balance is approximately $6.5 million,
excluding an anticipated $350,000 in additional sales tax revenue for the current month. This
figure does include an upcoming interest payment. Since the last meeting, payment was issued
for the Hotter'n'Hell Hundred Start/Finish Line Arch project, first and second payments were
made to the YMCA for the Aquatic Center commitment, and a payment was made to the City for
the second turf project.

Mr. Nick Schreiber inquired about the Hotel by the Falls project, noting that the original
funding approval was "up to $381,000," but final expenditures have slightly exceeded that
amount. Mr. Menzies responded that the overage was likely due to legal or surveying expenses
and would be balanced during the year-end budget discussion. There were no further questions

3. Consent Agenda
a) Approval of Minutes of February 6, 2025.
Mr. Dave Clark moved to approve the minutes as presented. Seconded by Mr.
Michael Grassi, the motion carried 7-0.
4. Public hearing regarding a funding request by Holy Family Classical Academy
to assist in renovating the athletic/recreation facilities at 2201 Speedway Avenue in
Wichita Falls as part of the larger renovation of the former Fain Presbyterian Church
to a school.
Mr. Fidelie opened the public hearing at 3:09 p.m.
Mr. Menzies introduced the request, noting the academy is seeking funding to cover
approximately 10% of the overall renovation costs. If approved, this would effectively fund
most of the costs associated with renovating the gymnasium facility. Mr. Clark inquired
whether previously known foundation issues at the site had been addressed. Mr. Menzies
confirmed that those concerns would be part of the discussion.
Ms. Kathryn Hager, representing the Holy Family Classical Academy Board of
Directors, presented the academy's background and vision. She shared that Holy Family
was established in the summer of 2021, following the closure of Notre Dame Catholic
School. A committed group of families and community members founded the academy with
a unified goal: to preserve Catholic education in Wichita Falls. The school currently serves
students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. It offers a classical curriculum
grounded in beauty, goodness, truth, and a love of learning, with a strong emphasis on moral
formation and deep thinking. Ms. Hager highlighted the longstanding presence of Catholic
education in the community, noting its 120-year legacy in Wichita Falls.
Presently, the academy operates out of the religious education rooms at Sacred
Heart Catholic Church—a space always intended to be temporary. As enrollment continues
to grow, so does the necessity for a permanent facility. Ms. Hager explained that the
academy's board and building committee were deeply impressed by the historic Fain
building during a tour, recognizing its architectural beauty and potential. She expressed Holy
Family's board's belief that the building could be transformed into a permanent and inspiring
home for the academy, one that aligns with their mission and could serve as an educational
beacon for the community. She then introduced architect Dick Bundy to discuss the
architectural plans in greater detail.
Mr. Bundy provided a detailed overview of the existing conditions and proposed
renovations for the former Fain Presbyterian Church, which is proposed to become the
permanent home of Holy Family Classical Academy. He began by noting that although the
building has long been known to have some structural issues, they are not as severe as in
other preservation projects he has worked on, such as the steel-framed Holt Hotel. He
emphasized that the Fain building, originally constructed in 1950 and expanded in 1955, is
an iconic and architecturally significant structure, designed by prominent architects who also
worked on landmark projects in Dallas. The building includes a beautiful Gothic sanctuary,
a two-story wing, and a three-story addition with a basement.
He presented various photographs and described the site layout, including areas to
WF4BSTC Minutes Page 2 of 7
6/52025
PAGE 2 of 7
AGENDA ITEM NO.7.b
be used for classrooms, playgrounds, and key structural elements such as the sanctuary
and gym. Notably, the project includes plans to replace modern single-pane windows with
historically appropriate glass, remove a non-original portico, and construct two elevators and
fire stairs to bring the facility up to accessibility standards. Bundy also described how various
parts of the building would serve specific functions: the south wing for younger students, the
west wing for the cafeteria and administrative offices, and the basement gym with ample
natural light. The sanctuary will serve as a chapel and could double as an auditorium, seating
around 450 people.
Ms. Hager added that the school is entering its fifth year, with growing enrollment
projected to reach 70 students in the 2025-2026 school year and a balanced budget aimed
at supporting up to 90 students. If the renovation project proceeds, they plan to occupy the
facility in the 2026-2027 school year. Their strategy is to begin debt-free, relying on
fundraising through endowments, grants, and scholarships. She presented a funding
request of $560,000 from the WF4BSTC—roughly 10% of the total renovation cost—
specifically for athletic and recreational improvements, which comprise about 25% of the
usable space when including outdoor areas.
Mr. Bundy closed by outlining the three renovation phases: (1) interior renovations
and asbestos abatement, including accessibility improvements like elevators; (2) site and
playground upgrades; and (3) restoration and stabilization of the sanctuary. The total
estimated cost is $5.6 million. He also presented a traffic circulation plan to improve drop-off
and pickup flow and detailed floor plans for each level, with corresponding elevator access
and facilities for students of varying ages. Both Mr. Bundy and Ms. Hager asked if there were
any questions.
Mr. Clark inquired about school security measures. Mr. Bundy confirmed that the
main entrance is designed with controlled access through administrative offices, which is
consistent with modern school security standards. Mr. Garner inquired about enrollment
projections and long-term plans. Ms. Hager stated the school will remain a Pre-K through
8th-grade operation, separate from the newly established Chesterton Academy Catholic
high school. She explained that the new facility will provide dedicated classrooms for each
grade, allowing for 15 students per class, and will support continued growth as current
facilities near capacity. Mr. Garner also addressed staffing plans. Ms. Hager noted that as
enrollment has increased, the school has been able to hire more staff within its budget.
Mr. Nick Schreiber expressed concern about allocating tax dollars—estimated at
approximately $6,300 per student—for a project that would primarily serve a limited number
of students at a private Catholic school, questioning the broader economic benefit to the city.
Ms. Hager emphasized that the funding would be used strictly for athletic and recreational
purposes, not for religious or academic components.
Mr. Kinley Hegglund confirmed that under Texas Local Government Code 505.152,
4B funds can legally be used for children's sports facilities and public park space. He noted
that oversight could ensure the funds are used specifically for the playground and
gymnasium. Mr. Fidelie noted that this funding would be similar to the funding given to the
YMCA, a membership-based organization, for their aquatics facility. Ms. Hager and Mr.
Bundy also clarified that the playground would be open to the surrounding neighborhood,
though the gymnasium would remain for school use. Ms. Hager added that the gym would
support inter-school sports events, providing some community engagement.
Mr. Nick Schreiber questioned whether similar support had been given to other
private schools, to which the response was no, at least not in recent memory. Mr. Nick
Schreiber then discussed the question of whether the Board would support a funding request
from WFISD for athletic facilities. Mr. Fidelie noted that the Board entertained funding for
Memorial Stadium upgrades, but he could not remember what the Board ultimately decided.
WF4BSTC Minutes Page 3 of 7

PAGE 3 of 7
AGENDA ITEM NO. 7.b
Mr. Hegglund addressed the question from a legal standpoint, explaining that it would be
legally permissible if the Board chose to fund such a project.
Mr. Fidelie asked if there were any more questions or public comments. None being
made, Mr. Fidelie explained the process of the executive session and the vote to Ms. Hager
and Mr. Bundy, and explained that if they did not want to stay for the entire meeting, Mr.
Menzies would email the organizations to let them know of the Board's decisions. He then
closed the public hearing at 3:35 p.m.
5. Public hearing regarding a funding request by the City of Wichita Falls to study
and provide options to improve the waterfalls adjacent to 1-44 and the Wichita River
in Wichita Falls, otherwise known as The Falls.
Mr. Fidelie opened the public hearing at 3:35 p.m.
Mr. Russell Schreiber addressed the Board and explained the desire to enhance both
the operational reliability and water quality of The Falls, which has been a city landmark
since the early 1980s. After an initial unsuccessful attempt to work with a swimming pool
company, the City issued an RFQ and received proposals from two engineering firms. Mr.
Russell Schreiber and the new Parks Director, Ms. Kalee Robinson, selected Garver
Engineers to proceed with a formal evaluation.
Ms. Tina Hanson with Garver presented the proposed scope of work, including a
detailed assessment of the existing conditions—structural, electrical, and mechanical
components—and options to improve water clarity, maintenance access, lighting, and trail
connectivity. The first phase involves a comprehensive assessment of existing conditions,
including the surrounding landscape, hardscape, lighting, rock structures, pumping
equipment, and electrical systems. She noted visible deterioration, such as the separation
of rock from adjacent sidewalks, and emphasized the need for a structural and systems
analysis to understand the site's current condition fully.
Following this assessment, Garver would develop a "menu of alternatives" outlining
a range of improvement options. This approach would give the City flexibility to determine
the desired level of investment and whether to implement improvements all at once or in
phases. The most basic alternative would involve repairing or replacing existing
infrastructure and addressing any identified structural, electrical, or piping issues.
Ms. Hanson also introduced three potential strategies to improve the clarity and
aesthetics of the water flowing through the falls. One option would involve recirculating
clearer river water after rain events. A second alternative proposes supplementing the
system with potable water sourced from a nearby fire hydrant, requiring treatment to prevent
environmental contamination. A third option under consideration is the possible use of
groundwater, contingent on a high-level feasibility analysis to determine availability and
viability.
Maintenance access is another key focus. The team would evaluate the load capacity
of the existing pedestrian bridge to determine if it can support heavy equipment, or if shoring
or replacement is necessary. Additional alternatives include constructing a new bridge or
trail from the north side of the river, where the City recently acquired property, and potentially
utilizing cranes from the cemetery area. However, this could incur high ongoing costs. They
will also study options to widen the existing trail or create a turnaround near the Public Works
sanitation yard to allow for easier vehicle access and equipment movement.
To enhance visitor experience, the proposal includes evaluating two potential parking
areas: one on the north side of the river near the recently acquired property, and another on
the east side near the Riverside Cemetery, where some regrading and retaining wall
construction might be needed. Ms. Hanson concluded by noting other possible site
WF4BSTC Minutes Page 4 of 7
6/5/2025
PAGE 4 of 7
AGENDA ITEM NO. 7.b
enhancements, such as installing high-efficiency lighting for both security and aesthetics.
The project timeline includes presenting the full range of alternatives and associated costs
to the Board by October, followed by conceptual design work for the selected improvements
to be completed by early January. The total proposed fee for this scope of work is $129,580.
Mr. Barham asked whether the final report would include reliable construction cost
estimates. Ms. Hanson confirmed that the October report would include such figures to guide
investment decisions. Mr. Barham also inquired about the structural capacity of the
pedestrian bridge, and Mr. Russell Schreiber clarified that while the bridge had been
reinforced to allow certain lighter City vehicles, it was not strong enough for heavy
equipment. This limitation led to a discussion about possibly relocating the pump station and
intake to the more accessible side of the river.
Multiple Board members, including Mr. Reynolds and Mr. Garner, asked about water
source options and recirculation systems. Ms. Hanson explained that alternatives would
include a closed-loop recirculating system and options to use potable water or groundwater,
with costs identified for each to aid in decision-making. Mr. Nick Schreiber discussed the
issue of muddy or silt-laden river water disrupting operations, prompting discussion on
combining water sources to maintain clearer water. Mr. Russell Schreiber noted that even a
recirculation system could be overwhelmed during flooding events, which typically occur
every 3-5 years. Ms. Hanson confirmed that operational and maintenance concerns, such
as algae control, would be considered, and that phased options may allow the upper pools
to function during flooding of the lower ones.
The conversation then turned to cost expectations and project timelines. Tina Hanson
estimated that the most basic rehab option might cost around $5 million, excluding major
structural work. Board members, including Mr. Fidelie, asked whether the investment of
$130,000 in the study was justifiable if overall project costs proved too high. Ms. Hanson
emphasized the flexibility of phased approaches. Mr. Fidelie also confirmed that a
conceptual design would follow the October presentation of alternatives, with potential
construction beginning in 2026. Mr. Russell Schreiber added that a full design contract and
construction bidding would follow Board approval.
Funding sources were also questioned, with Mr. Nick Schreiber asking whether the
full project cost would fall to the 4B Board or include other funding streams. Mr. Barham
noted that those discussions had not yet taken place. Mr. Grassi raised the idea of using
effluent water. Mr. Russell Schreiber pointed out that effluent water had been previously
studied but deemed unreliable and insufficient in volume. The Board also discussed potential
access and parking options, particularly the value of recently acquired City property across
the river, which could be used to construct a hike-and-bike pedestrian bridge. Mr. Garner
strongly advocated for this idea, noting its benefit for base personnel and general
connectivity. Ms. Hanson supported this as a valuable multi-purpose improvement.
Clarification was requested on property lines near the old hotel site. Mr. Menzies
explained that the City only owns the floodway portion, not the structure site, and that
construction in the floodway is heavily restricted. Mr. Nick Schreiber asked about the
longevity of the study's usefulness. Ms. Hanson noted that while findings would remain valid,
cost estimates would need to be escalated over time due to inflation.
Finally, Mr. Garner asked whether Board members could attend the in-person
workshop scheduled as part of the draft alternatives evaluation. Mr. Russell Schreiber
welcomed Board participation and indicated the contract could be amended to add additional
meetings. Mr. Fidelie noted the Board could form a subcommittee or post a meeting to allow
member attendance.
After no further discussion, Mr. Fidelie closed item number five at 4:01 p.m.

6. Presentation by the City of Wichita Falls related to a potential future funding
request to assist in the renovation of the tennis facility at Hamilton Park.
Mr. Blake Jurecek introduced a presentation on a potential future funding request
related to renovations at the Hamilton Park Tennis Center. While not a formal funding
request at this time, the City and Falls Town Tennis provided a detailed overview to gauge
the Board's interest. Mr. Jurecek noted that Wichita Falls was once a major hub for tennis in
North Texas, previously hosting major tournaments across several facilities, including
Hamilton Park, Weeks Park, and the local country club. Due to changing trends and the
growth of pickleball, facilities have decreased from three full tennis locations to
approximately one and a half. Mr. Jurecek introduced Kalee Robinson, the City's new Parks
and Recreation Director, and Mr. Michael Turner, Director of Falls Town Tennis.
Mr. Turner provided the main presentation to the Board. Mr. Turner detailed the
dramatic increase in programming and participation since his organization began managing
the center in 2023, including a 600% rise in daily use, expanded staffing, and increased
community engagement. Mr. Turner outlined the following proposed improvements:
• New, larger pro shop with better layout and aesthetic appeal.
• Improved and ADA-accessible entry plaza and drive-up/drop-off area.
• Additional restrooms to accommodate increased programming and meet
tournament requirements.
• Construction of two new outdoor courts and coverage of four existing courts
to create an indoor play space.
• Enhanced amenities including a viewing patio, garage doors for ventilation,
heating and cooling systems, and better spectator accommodations.
Mr. Turner highlighted the potential economic impact of hosting regional and national
tournaments, estimating up to $2.5 million annually, enabled by the improved facility:
• USTA Junior and Adult Tournaments (six 2-day events per year, estimated at
$64,000 each in economic impact).
• UIL and TAPPS tournaments, potentially attracting 80 teams and generating
over $100,000 per event.
• Texas Slam and Universal Tennis Rating (UTR) tournaments, previously
hosted in Wichita Falls, could return.
• MSU tennis partnerships, including practices and NCAA-hosted indoor
tournaments.
• Return on investment figures based on the City's Parks and Recreation
economic impact calculator.
• Mr. Turner emphasized Wichita Falls' appeal due to its proximity of courts,
hotel infrastructure, and central location,which makes it ideal for tournaments.
The project is estimated to cost approximately $5.5 million, and potential funding
sources include USTA grants, private donations, and possibly support from the sales tax
corporation. The City plans to apply for grants in the summer and revisit the proposal with
the Board later in the year or early next year, based on fundraising progress. The
presentation concluded with an invitation for questions and a brief discussion about possible
enhancements like a fitness center and stadium viewing areas. A planned flyover video could
not be shown due to technical issues, but materials would be emailed to the Board.
Mr. Reynolds suggested planning space for a future city-run fitness center and a
center court with spectator seating. Mr. Turner explained that the current design includes a
partially enclosed patio with garage doors on both ends for airflow and viewing of the main
indoor court, offering a stadium-like feel. He also confirmed that the courts that already exist
will be covered, while the two new courts will be added at the south end of the site.

Clarifying further financial points, Mr. Garner confirmed the figures referenced were
economic impact estimates, not direct income to the City or organization. Mr. Jurecek
concluded by outlining the project's funding strategy, which includes applying for USDA
grants estimated at$250,000—$300,000, pursuing private donations, and potentially seeking
support from the sales tax corporation. The City plans to revisit the project's status at the
end of the year or early next year based on fundraising progress. Mr. Fidelie concluded the
item with an invitation for any final questions or public comments.
7. Executive Session.
Mr. Fidelie adjourned the meeting into executive session at 4:25 p.m. pursuant to Texas
Government Code sections 551.087, 551.071, and 551.072. He announced the meeting back
into regular session at 5:42 p.m. The subjects posted in the Notice of Meeting were deliberated,
and no votes or further action were taken on these items in executive session.
8. Consideration of a funding request by Holy Family Classical Academy to assist in
renovating the athletic/recreation facilities at 2201 Speedway Avenue in Wichita Falls as
part of the larger renovation of the former Fain Presbyterian Church to a school.
Before the motion, Mr. Fidelie noted for the record that his wife serves on the board of
directors at Holy Family Classical Academy. He asked the City Attorney if he needed to disclose
that as a conflict, and the City Attorney indicated that he did not. Mr. Hegglund clarified for the
record that Mr. Fidelie does not have a legal conflict of interest in the issue before the WF4BSTC
Board, and he has every ability to vote on this issue. Mr. Fidelie then noted that he has been
informed that he has no legal right to abstain. Mr. Hegglund confirmed that Mr. Fidelie has no
legal right to abstain.
Mr. Clark moved to authorize funding to assist Holy Family Classical Academy with the
renovation of the athletic/recreation facilities at 2201 Speedway Avenue in the amount of
$560,000 as a reimbursement payment once the project is complete within three years and a CO
has been issued. Seconded by Mr. Garner, and no further comments or questions, the motion
carried 5-2, with Mr. Reynolds and Mr. Nick Schreiber voting in the negative.
9. Consideration of a funding request by the City of Wichita Falls to study and provide
options to improve the waterfalls adjacent to 1-44 and the Wichita River in Wichita Falls,
otherwise known as The Falls.

options to improve The Falls in the amount of$129,508. Seconded by Mr. Barham and with no
comments or discussion made by the public, the motion carried 6-1, with Mr. Grassi voting in the
negative.
10. Adjourn.
No further discussions took place, nor actions taken. Mr. Fidelie adjourned the meeting
at 5:46 p.m.

Building on that foundation, this resolution recognizes the complexity of homelessness
and underscores the need for coordinated efforts among local governments, nonprofit
organizations, law enforcement, public health agencies, and the broader community. It
establishes a Homelessness Advisory Committee made up of seven representatives from
both city and county leadership, the mental health sector, and the public. Supported by
local healthcare and public safety entities, the Committee will spend the next 18 months

Agenda Title: City Council Intent to Hold a Public Hearing and Vote on Approving a
Property Tax at Future Meeting
Council Action to be Taken: Approve a resolution expressing the City Council's intent
to place a proposal on a future Council agenda approving a property tax and schedule
one public tax rate hearing, and establishing the date to vote on same.
Department Submitted: Finance
Staff Contact: Stephen Calvert, Chief Finance Officer/Director of Finance
1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
In accordance with the Texas Property Tax Reform and Transparency Act of 2019, a city
that is considering adopting a tax rate must hold at least one public hearing and post
notice of the hearing in advance.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
The current property tax rate for the City of Wichita Falls is $0.684800 per $100 of
assessed value, and the no-new-revenue tax rate is $0.662791 . The no-new-revenue tax
rate is essentially the rate that generates the same tax revenue as the prior year from
properties that were on the tax roll in both tax years. The voter-approval rate is
$0.708873. The voter-approval tax rate is the rate the City may adopt, but not exceed.
The current version of the proposed FY 2025 budget recommends a tax rate of
$0.682500, which is 0.34°/0 lower than the tax rate in FY 2025 (current year). This tax
rate does not exceed the voter-approval tax rate.
This resolution has been prepared with a blank for the proposed tax rate in order to allow
the City Council to conduct the budget hearing prior to deciding on a proposed tax rate.
PAGE 1 OF 3 PAGES
AGENDA ITEM NO. 9.0
After completing the budget hearing, the City Council must take a record vote expressing
its intent to adopt a tax rate that equals the tax rate in the Proposed Budget or expresses
its intent to adopt a tax rate other than the rate in the Proposed Budget. Council may vote
to adopt a tax rate between the no-new-revenue tax rate and the voter-approval tax rate.
Because the Proposed Tax Rate exceeds the no-new-revenue tax rate, but is below the
voter-approval tax rate, a record vote of this Council is required. It should be noted, that
the resolution must include a proposed tax rate. Approval of this agenda item expresses
the governing body's intent to hold a public hearing on the proposed tax rate on
September 2, 2025, and its intent to vote to adopt a tax rate on September 2, 2025 at its
regularly planned Council meeting.
3. BOARD REVIEW/CITIZEN INPUT
A Council work session to review the proposed budget was held on August 12, 2025.
4. RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Council, by record vote, approve the resolution proposing a
property tax rate of .6825 for FY 2025 to be considered at a public hearing on September
2, 2025.
