allegations were not his own and stated that he believed the matter warranted an
independent third-party investigation.

for its prompt and professional response to the incident.
Ms. Balthrop discussed legislative changes that prevent the city from requiring permits
for any occupation licensed by the state, which includes companies that sell home
security systems.

revenue and expressed support for proactively planning future capital projects.

provided sufficient information to make informed decisions on those items.
Mr. Hegglund explained that the proposed agreement with Jackson Walker would
provide specialized legal assistance on an as-needed basis for flooding and flood
mitigation matters due to current and anticipated staffing shortages within the City

they protect, and "live lives worthy of their sacrifice."

at least five Wichita Falls firefighters are deployed in Central Texas, assisting with
emergency response and recovery efforts, and asked the community to keep the
deployed firefighters and the Central Texas area in their prayers. He also shared that a
recent visit to Niagara Falls made him look forward to The Falls reopening in 2028 and

by Mr. Craig Lewis, and with no further discussion or public comment, the motion carried 4-0.
3. Discussion and possible action related to the proposed incentive package for
Aerospace N3xt.
Ms. Moriah Williams introduced the proposed project, noting that it had been in
development for an extended period and had taken significant shape following the formation of
Forward Wichita Falls and the hiring of Kirk Peterson. Ms. Williams stated that the project
represented Mr. Peterson's first major initiative with Forward Wichita Falls and expressed
appreciation for his work.
Mr. Kirk Peterson presented a request related to the expansion of Aerospace Next/Cobra
Kai Flight Academy at Kickapoo Airport, owned and operated by Martin Bohn. Mr. Peterson
explained that Mr. Bohn, a former military and ENJJPT pilot and former instructor pilot of the year,
has operated the flight school since 2012 and provides flight training services at the airport.
Working in coordination with Forward Wichita Falls, the 80th Flying Training Wing, and Air
Education and Training Command (AETC), the project secured an Education Service Agreement
to provide the initial 30 hours of flight training for U.S. Air Force students prior to entering the
ENJJPT program at Sheppard Air Force Base.
Mr. Peterson stated that, historically, students attended commercial flight schools in
locations such as Pueblo, Colorado; Denton, Texas; Prescott, Arizona; and Daytona Beach,
Florida. He noted that the agreement allows students to complete this training in Wichita Falls
instead. He further explained that Mr. Bohn plans to invest approximately $15 million to expand
the flight school facilities and operations at Kickapoo Airport.
Mr. Peterson recommended approval of a $300,000 incentive package to be paid over two
years and forgiven over five years. The funds would assist with expanding classroom and
operational space necessary to accommodate additional students. In return, the project is
expected to create ten new jobs with salaries averaging approximately $65,000 annually. Mr.
Peterson also expressed optimism that the quality of training provided could attract future
participation from NATO students associated with the ENJJPT program. Mr. Lane commented
that the projected payroll associated with the new positions appeared to provide a very quick
return on investment for the community.
Mr. David Toogood requested clarification regarding the relationship between Aerospace
Next and Cobra Kai Flight Academy. Martin Bohn explained that Aerospace Next operates under
WFEDC MINUTES 04/29/2026
PAGE 2 OF 3
Page 16 of 109
several "doing business as" names, including Cobra Kai Flight Academy, Cobra Kai Flight
Services, and Cobra Kai Air, with the Cobra Kai name serving as the more publicly recognizable
brand. He further stated that each entity operates under its own FAA certification.
Mr. Toogood also inquired about a previous incentive agreement awarded to the company
by the Economic Development Corporation in 2015 for a flight simulator project. Mr. Bohn
confirmed that the prior agreement was structured as a forgivable loan with performance
requirements over a five-year period. He stated that all required performance measures were
successfully met, resulting in the loan being forgiven. Mr. Bohn added that the simulator project
had since helped train approximately 970 airline transport pilots, along with private and instrument
pilots, and had generated a significant economic impact.
Mr. Lane called for any additional questions or comments from the Board or the public.
There being none, the discussion concluded.
4. Executive Session.
Mr. Lane adjourned the meeting into executive session at 2:40 p.m. pursuant to Texas
Government Code §§§ 551.072, 551.087, and 551.071.
Mr. Lane exited the meeting at 3:20 p.m.
Mr. Toogood announced the meeting back into regular session at 3:39 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.
Motions
Aerospace N3xt DBA Cobra Kai Flight Academy, LLC
Mr. Hillery made a motion that the Board authorize a forgivable loan to Aerospace N3xt
DBA Cobra Kai Flight Academy, LLC, in the total amount of $300,000, paid out to the company
over two years, with proof of investment and execution of a contract with USAF, and forgiven over
five years, contingent on retaining all current employees and hiring 10 new full-time employees.
Seconded by Mr. Lewis and with no further comments, the motion carried 3-0.
8. Adjourned.
Mr. Toogood asked if there were any questions or comments. Since there were none, he

ABSENT:
1. Call to Order.
Mr. Glenn Barham called the meeting to order at 3:00 p.m., noting that a quorum was
present.
2. Report of Financial Condition.
Mr. Paul Menzies reviewed the financial report included in the Board packet, noting that
the ending fund balance reflected in the report did not yet include the most recent sales tax
revenue figures received from the State the previous day. He advised the Board that
approximately an additional $500,000 should be added to the reported bottom-line balance based
on the latest monthly sales tax collections. Mr. Menzies stated that sales tax revenues continue
to perform very well. He explained that staff believes the increase is likely attributable to several
factors, including inflation, increased Amazon-related sales activity, and business-to-business
sales transactions.
Mr. Menzies further informed the Board that, within the next few weeks, the Corporation
would likely issue payment of its $1 million share toward the MSU Military Education Center
project. He clarified that the payment would not negatively impact the Corporation's current fund
balance because the obligation had already been accounted for in prior financial planning. He
WF48STC Minutes Page 1 of 5
5/7/2026
Page 19 of 109
also noted that a corresponding payment would be made on the 4A side.
Additionally, Mr. Menzies reminded the Board that, during a previous meeting, the Board
approved an annual contribution of up to $1.4 million toward a future City of Wichita Falls
certificate of obligation issuance. He advised that the City's certificate of obligation process is
continuing to move forward and that the City Council is expected to consider the matter at its next
meeting. If approved by the Council, the funding is anticipated to close and be issued in the next
few weeks.
Mr. Michael Grassi asked about current interest rate trends. Mr. Stephen Calvert
responded that interest rates have generally remained stable in the short term, although they
have not decreased as much as the Federal Reserve had previously anticipated, remaining in
approximately the 4% range. Mr. Calvert explained that while short-term investment rates have
remained relatively steady, long-term borrowing costs have increased. He noted that the
Corporation's anticipated borrowing costs associated with the upcoming certificate of obligation
issuance will likely be higher than originally projected. Mr. Calvert stated that the initial financial
projections were prepared prior to recent international conflicts impacting the market and
economy. He further advised that staff expects to have more definitive information regarding
pricing and bond rates within the next couple of weeks once the bonds are formally priced.
3. Consent Agenda:
a) Approval of Minutes of April 2, 2026.
Mr. Stephen Santellana moved to approve the consent agenda as presented. Seconded
by Mr. Darrell Coleman, with no further board or public comment, the motion carried 5-0.
4. Consideration of a funding request from Miniature Wonders to support their
planned destination and tourism project in Kiwanis Park (tabled by the Board on April 2,
2026).
Mr. Paul Menzies explained that, following the previous meeting, the Board requested
Miniature Wonders to provide both an operational budget and a sustainability plan to demonstrate
the project's long-term viability and to ensure the project would remain privately operated rather
than eventually becoming a burden on the City. Mr. Menzies stated that he and Kalee Robinson
had recently met with representatives from Miniature Wonders after the organization submitted
the requested information. He advised that the operational plan, sustainability plan, and a
spreadsheet summarizing the financial projections were all included in the Board packet for
review. Mr. Menzies then invited Miniature Wonders representative Brett Hanes to address the
Board and discuss the submitted materials.
Mr. Brett Hanes stated that he had presented the project to the Board during the previous
meeting and believed the newly submitted operational budget and sustainability plan addressed
the Board's concerns. Rather than repeating the prior presentation, Mr. Hanes encouraged the
Board to discuss any specific questions or concerns they had regarding the project, the proposed
operations plan, or the future expectations of the 4B Board regarding the development.
Mr. Barham noted that one of the Board's primary concerns involved the approximately
$500,000 fencing project and what would happen if the attraction was ultimately unsuccessful,
leaving a large fenced area without an active development. In response, Mr. Hanes explained
that the organization conducted a comparison study of similar miniature parks across the country
to support its attendance projections. He stated that comparable parks averaged significantly
higher annual attendance numbers than the 80,000 visitors projected for the Wichita Falls project.
He further noted that the proposed park would be larger than many comparable facilities while
charging lower admission prices. Based on the organization's operational analysis, Mr. Hanes
WF4BSTC Minutes Page 2 of 5
5/7/2026
Page 20 of 109
stated that the project's estimated break-even point would be approximately 25,000 annual
visitors, which he believes demonstrates the project's financial sustainability.
Mr. Hanes also addressed concerns regarding the possibility of project failure, explaining
that if the organization were unable to sustain operations, the City would retain the improvements
made to the property, including fencing, a proposed welcome center, and other site
enhancements. He stated that the project would still leave the City with a more valuable and
improved asset than the currently undeveloped property.
Mr. Nick Schreiber asked the organization to provide additional information regarding
private funding commitments, donations, and anticipated contributions supporting the project. In
response, Mr. Hanes explained that the operational budget presented to the Board was based on
projected operations after the park's anticipated opening in 2027. He stated that Miniature
Wonders has already received approximately $462,000 in individual and corporate contributions,
most of which has already been utilized toward project development. Mr. Hanes further advised
that the organization has secured additional pledged contributions totaling approximately
$250,000 to $300,000 and has also established a $250,000 line of credit to assist with short-term
revenue needs.
Mr. Hanes stated that the organization plans to continue pursuing grant opportunities, with
many grant application cycles opening later in the summer. He explained that the operational
budget anticipates approximately $150,000 annually in grant funding; however, the organization
does not intend for grant funding to serve as a primary revenue source. He further noted that the
operational budget includes plans to allocate approximately$217,000 annually into reserve funds
based on projected attendance figures of 80,000 visitors per year in order to support long-term
operational sustainability.
Mr. Craig Reynolds stated that, in his experience with fundraising projects, he generally
believes construction should not begin until the necessary funding has been secured. However,
he acknowledged that visible progress on the project site could help encourage additional
donations and demonstrate momentum to potential supporters. Mr. Hanes responded that the
organization has already made substantial progress on the project, including completing exhibits,
making payments toward a train attraction, and beginning work on the welcome center building.
He emphasized that the organization intends to move forward with the park regardless of the
Board's decision and stated that the fencing is necessary to protect the exhibits and allow
operations to begin.
Mr. Menzies clarified that the Board had discussed the possibility of requiring the
organization to meet a fundraising threshold before any 4B funds would be released. Mr. Hanes
stated that the organization believed such a requirement would make the project more difficult but
advised that, if necessary, Miniature Wonders would proceed with a smaller-scale version of the
project and continue moving forward with development plans.
Mr. Santellana stated that the Board's hesitation stemmed from its responsibility to
carefully protect taxpayer dollars, particularly for a highly visible public project. He noted concerns
about funding projects that may not ultimately succeed. Mr. Hanes acknowledged and stated that
the organization understood those concerns.
Mr. Schreiber stated that while he supports bringing additional tourism and attractions to
Wichita Falls, he would feel more comfortable if the Board's funding came later in the process
after the project had demonstrated operational success and long-term viability. Mr. Hanes
responded that, without the requested funding, the organization would likely begin with a smaller-
scale version of the park by fencing and developing only a portion of the property initially, with
plans to expand later as funding became available. He reiterated that the organization intends to
move forward with the project regardless of the Board's decision.
WF4BSTC Minutes Page 3 of 5
5/7/2026
Page 21 of 109
Mr. Coleman asked for clarification regarding the estimated cost of the fencing project,
noting that he had heard different figures discussed. Mr. Brett Hanes explained that the current
estimated cost for the wrought iron fencing was approximately $363,000, with additional utility-
related costs estimated at approximately $175,000. Mr. Coleman also complimented the
organization on the detailed business and operational information provided to the Board, stating
that the submission exceeded his expectations. He then asked whether similar miniature parks in
Europe and Australia operate as nonprofit or for-profit entities.
Mr. Hanes explained that only two miniature parks in the world currently operate as
nonprofit organizations, one located in England and the other in the Netherlands. He stated that
both parks generate millions of dollars annually for children's hospitals through their operations.
Mr. Hanes further explained that Miniature Wonders' goal as a nonprofit organization is not to
generate profits for itself, but rather to promote Wichita Falls and eventually reinvest excess
revenues into future projects, capital improvements, and community-focused initiatives.
Mr. Steve Garner shared his personal experience visiting Madurodam in the Netherlands
as a child while living in Germany as part of a military family. He stated that, even decades ago,
the miniature city was considered a major destination attraction in Europe and left a lasting
impression on him and his family. Mr. Garner expressed his belief that the proposed Miniature
Wonders project has the potential to become a significant tourism destination for Wichita Falls
and attract visitors from across the country. He stated that he believes people would travel to
Wichita Falls specifically to experience the attraction and expressed support for bringing such an
opportunity to the community and future generations.
During public comment, Gary McClendon expressed concerns regarding the prairie dog
population in the proposed project area at Kiwanis Park. He recalled prior controversy involving
prairie dogs at the site and questioned how Miniature Wonders planned to prevent prairie dogs
from impacting the exhibits and visitor experience throughout the park.
In response, Mr. Brett Hanes explained that each exhibit would be constructed on its own
concrete pad, which would help prevent prairie dogs from burrowing directly beneath or around
the displays. He also stated that, based on discussions with individuals familiar with prairie dog
behavior, increased activity from visitors and train operations would likely encourage the animals
to relocate away from the heavily populated areas of the park. Mr. Hanes further noted that the
park would have maintenance staff available to address any issues within the facility on a regular
basis.
Mr. Barham asked for final questions and comments before adjourning into executive
session.
5. Executive Session.
Mr. Barham adjourned the meeting into executive session at 3:25 p.m. pursuant to Texas
Government Code sections 551.087 and 551.072. He announced the meeting back into regular
session at 4:12 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.
Mr. Schreiber exited the meeting during executive session and did not return.
Motions
Mr. Garner made a motion to approve funding up to $360,000 to assist Minature Wonders
with the cost of fencing that is commensurate with the design and materials described in the low
bid presented. Seconded by Mr. Reynolds, the motion carried 6-0.

Mr. Lane then moved to the Financial Report.
b. Financial Report
Mr. Paul Menzies reported that the Corporation's financial position remained strong. Both
corporations had recently paid out funds to the Midwestern Military Education Center.
Additionally, some projects would be rolling off and that would likely result in funds
returning to the corporation. The sales tax numbers were doing very well. He noted that
one of the driving forces was likely the start of work at the Oklaunion power plant data
center project, as some of the tax revenue increase correlated to their startup date. Mr.
Lane commented that he had heard good things generally about local sales and it was
noted that the RV park on Seymour Road was completely full.
Mr. Lane asked for comments from the board or other attendees.
Mr. Gustafson made a motion to approve the Financial Report as presented. Seconded
by Mr. Brent Hillery, and with no further discussion or public comment, the motion carried

3. Discussion and possible action authorizing the sale of 171+ acres at the Wichita
Falls Business Park from the Wichita Falls Economic Development Corporation
(WFEDC) to Texas Data Center Campus II, LLC, and authorizing the WFEDC Board
chair to sign all related documents.
Ms. Moriah Williams introduced the proposed sale, pointing out that this sale was Phase
II of the project. This sale was not new, as it was planned as part of the project from the
beginning. The first phase involved the sale of 217 acres. This sale for 171+ acres would
be at a higher price than the previous sale, selling at $75,000 per acre. Ms. Williams said
that the project was moving forward and that they would be breaking ground by the end
of the year. Mr. Lane asked when the sales proceeds would reach the corporation's
balance sheet. Ms. Williams stated that she was not sure of the exact date of funding but
that it would for sure be this year, as they were waiting to get an end user under contract
and that those discussions are under way at this time.
Mr. Toogood asked Ms. Williams to identify, for public clarity, the owner of the property
being sold and what would happen to the proceeds from the sale. Ms. Williams stated
that the property was owned by the Wichita Falls Economic Development Corporation and
that all of the proceeds from the sale would be returned to the Corporation where it would
be used, with the approval of the City Council, exclusively for economic development
purposes.
Mr. Lane called for any additional questions or comments from the Board or the public.
There being none, the discussion concluded.

it was being kept confidential but would be addressed when taken up by the City Council and that
the current action was to only authorize the sale.
Mr. Toogood moved to authorize the sale of 171+acres in the Wichita Falls Business Park

1. Call to Order.
Mr. Glenn Barham called the meeting to order at 3:03 p.m., noting that a quorum was
present.
2. Report of Financial Condition.
Mr. Paul Menzies reviewed the financial report included in the Board packet, noting that
the ending fund balance reflected in the report did not yet include the most recent sales tax
revenue figures as these numbers would not be received from the State until the following
Wednesday. Mr. Menzies stated that sales tax revenues were running 20% year over year ahead
of the previous year. He explained that staff believes the increase is likely attributable to several
factors, including inflation, increased Amazon-related sales activity, and Oklaunion data center
spending. He relating seeing a restaurant filled with distinctive yellow and orange shirts indicating
Oklaunion workers, and that he further expected that to continue for some time into the future.
Mr. Menzies further pointed out that the financials showed that $6.7 million was the
bottom-line number for funds available for new projects. The financial report also reflected the
transfer of $1 million for the MSU Military Education Project and would begin to show payments
WF4BSTC Minutes Page 1 of 3

Page 27 of 109
for the MSU bus tours. Mr. Menzies confirmed that this referred to the bus tours for Sheppard
airmen and was reflected on the financial report as the Engage Sheppard Program.
Mr. Barham sought questions from the Board on the financial report. With no questions
from the Board, Mr. Barham asked for questions from the public. There were none. A brief
discussion was held concerning the need to adopt/vote on the financials. Mr. Hegglund stated
that the Board did not need to adopt the financials, but that since they were on the agenda, there
should be an opportunity for public comment.
Mayor Tim Short joined the meeting at 3:05 p.m.
Mr. Barham sought public comments, and there were none.
A brief discussion was held concerning the vote count as reflected in the prior meeting's
minutes, but that the count was correct as one member had stepped out when the vote was taken
on that item.
3. Consent Agenda:
a) Approval of Minutes of April 29, 2026.
Mr. Michael Grassi moved to approve the consent agenda as presented. Seconded by Mr.
Steve Garner, with no further board or public comment, the motion carried 6-0.
4. Consideration of a funding request from OG Cellars Winery at Century Plaza
Mr. Menzies stated that OG Cellars Winery had moved from downtown to Century Plaza.
The finish out required an expensive sprinkler system. He pointed out that there was precedent
for recognizing an eligible entity's related offsite storefront as part of the overall operation and is
eligible for funding.
PUBLIC HEARING: Mr. Barham announced at 3:06 p.m. that the Public Hearing on OG
Cellar's request for assistance with the cost of sprinkler system installation was open.
Mr. James Hanger made the presentation on behalf of OG Cellars. Mr. Hanger is the
owner of OG Cellars. The operation began in 2014 and expanded in 2016. In 2021 the first
location was opened within the city limits of Wichita Falls. The original idea was to be part of the
redevelopment of the downtown area. However, after 5 years it was determined that it was not
working out financially and that they needed more space.
Mr. Hanger stated that in order to develop the new space in Century Plaza the Fire
Department required a fire suppression system be installed. The landlord was unwilling to assist
with this cost. The location is excellent as there are 8 hotels within 1 mile. Until the fire
suppression system was installed, they had to operate at a reduced occupancy level. Even at
reduced levels the business had a 72% year over year increase in sales for the months of March,
April and May compared to the prior year's sales at the downtown location.
They were not expecting the cost of the fire suppression system which was roughly
$24,000. Mr. Hanger stated that they had invested $250,000 in the new location.
Mr. Hanger stated that they were the only winery in the area that make all their own wines
by hand from actual grapes. Now that the fire suppression system is installed, they have more
room and have more tables and chairs than at the downtown location. This has assisted in
WF4BSTC Minutes Page 2 of 3
6/4/2026
Page 28 of 109
attracting groups as well as individual customers. He mentioned a recent event with the League
of Women Voters and charity Bingo events. Over the years the Bingo events have generated
over $35,000 for local charities. The charity gets 100% of the Bingo proceeds plus 10% of the
establishment's sales/profit. Each $10 Bingo card can fund 6 meals for the Food Bank, and
$1,000's have gone to schools and other local charities.
Mr. Hanger noted that they have just begun marketing the new location starting with KFCF
advertisements as well as additional signage.
Mr. Hanger hoped that the Board would consider his request for funding.
Mr. Barham inquired about Ancient Ovens in St. Jo. Mr. Hanger discussed the pizza
operations as well as the food limitations on the current site. As a class 2 establishment, they are
limited in what foods they can offer. They are serving tapas which are like a big Super Bowl
spread. He further noted that they were not trying to flip tables 2 and 3 times a night. They want
the location to be a place where people come together, stay awhile and visit. This is much easier
now that they have more tables and chairs.
Mr. Barham asked for questions from the Board, and there were none. He then asked for
questions from the public, and there were none. With no further comments or questions, Mr.
Barham closed the public hearing at 3:16 p.m.
Mr. Barham asked for final questions and comments before adjourning into executive
session.
5. Executive Session.
Mr. Barham adjourned the meeting into executive session at 3:17 p.m. pursuant to Texas
Government Code sections 551.087, 551.071 and 551.072. He announced the meeting back into
regular session at 4:15 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.
6. Motions
Mr. Garner made a motion to approve funding of 10% of documented expenses not to
exceed $24,000 in funding to assist O. G. Cellars Winery with the cost of installing a fire
suppression system at the new location in Century Plaza. Seconded by Mr. Coleman. Mr.
Barham sought further discussion or public comment, there being none, the motion carried 6-0.
7. Adjourn.
No further discussions took place, nor actions taken. Mr. Barham adjourned the meeting

3.a. Veteran's Plaza Master Plan: David Coleman stated he met recently with Marvin
Peevey, our Grant Writer, to finalize details of the Veteran's Memorial Project. Our Grant
requests will focus first on completing the Medal of Honor Plaza, with the monument to
Thomas Fowler, and monuments to Purple Heart and other Medal of Honor awardees.
3.a.i. Daughters of the American Revolution Patriots Marker Project: Mike will follow up
on a letter from the City of WF to grant approval for the DAR's Patriot Marker,which will
be a plaque on a metal pole at the Veterans Plaza.

3.c. Parks Master Plan: Kalee stated that the City Council gave final approval for funding
the last section of the Circle Trail, along the shore of Lake Wichita, at their meeting last
week. This means that CO Bonds can be issued and the project can begin.
David stated that the City (Public Works and Parks) have agreed to delay the
work to repair the Falls (near Central Freeway)so the Circle Trail closure will occur
after the Hotter'N Hell event in late August. David stated that in his opinion, there is not
a safe detour route for the public, so when the Circle Trail must be closed at the Falls,
the City will most likely make the Trail dead-end on both sides of the closed section.
Kalee and Scott provided updates, including:
• The City has contracted with a company that will be renting kayaks and
paddleboards at Lake Wichita Park, mostly on weekends.
• Hog traps have been set up near the Circle Trail, south of Borrow Pond
4. Discussion of Brick Sales and Fundraising Initiatives: David stated the two brick
orders have been engraved, and he wrote a check for$170 to Chad Ham, the engraver.
We received $350 for the bricks, and $180 for Thomas Fowler challenge coins (David
reminded the group that we still have many challenge coins left, for$20 each). The
balance in the Wells Fargo account is still approximately $92,000.
David stated that he has completed reports required by the WF Area Community
Foundation regarding Harry Patterson's final grant to the LWRC for approximately
$54,000.
Michael asked whether the USMC Emblem is correct on the newly engraved bricks, and
David said he will check on this with the engraver.
5. Other Business Matters: Kalee stated she will check on the status of the sign at the
Veterans Plaza, which will provide instructions for ordering bricks. Funding for this was
approved in February, up to $400.
6. Adjournment: The meeting adjourned at 12:05 pm.

Texas Local Government Code, Chapter 283 (sometimes called HB 1777) was enacted
by the 76th Legislature as a mechanism to increase competition in the
telecommunications industry by establishing a uniform method for certified
telecommunications providers to compensate municipalities for the use of public rights-
of-way. The provisions of this statute went into effect on September 1, 1999.
Currently, the City of Wichita Falls municipal franchise is with Spectrum Gulf Coast,
LLC. A Public, Educational, Governmental (PEG) fee is charged to Spectrum
subscribers to support the government and educational cable channel 1300. The City of
Wichita Falls receives 1% of the gross revenues earned from the franchise fee, which
can then be used on capital expenditures to promote governmental functions.

A. The general project description is contained in the attached document and related materials, hereinafter referred to as the
"Proposal."
B. The specific work to be performed by Nelco Media for the installation of the specified system as outlined in the Proposal.
C. The total amount to be paid by the Owner for performance(subject to additions or deductions via written change order)shall
not exceed the amount specified in the Proposal.
D. Progress payments will be made according to the payment schedule below. Equipment will not be ordered until the equipment
deposit is submitted. These payments are subject to construction timelines and the lead times required for the delivery of
ordered equipment.
E. Payment is due immediately upon invoicing.Any unpaid balance remaining 10 days after invoicing of completed tasks, as
outlined in Item D,will bear interest at a rate of 1.5%per month, calculated as simple interest.
F. This Proposal expires 30 days after the date stated at the top of this agreement. No work will be scheduled without a deposit
and a signed copy of this agreement.All drawings and specifications are contingent upon agreement and retainer.
G. If job is of a retro-fit/remodel nature on an existing structure, and scope of work exceeds time estimated to complete because
of unforeseen circumstances, owner agrees that he/she will be back-charged at a rate of$129 per man, per hour for all extra
labor involved in completing the job.
H. All high-voltage electrical work will be performed exclusively by a licensed electrician. Nelco Media will ensure that all
electrical work involving voltages above 120V is compliant with applicable local codes and regulations. The Owner
acknowledges that no high-voltage work will be carried out without the involvement of a licensed professional, and any such
work will be billed separately as required by the electrician's fees.
I. All drawings and documentation are contingent upon retainer. Since preparing a proposal requires system design and
engineering by a professional Systems Integrator, only one version of the proposal will be provided without a retainer. If a
second version is required, or if the project is for design and documentation only, a minimum$400 Design Retainer will be
required. This retainer covers up to three additional designs and proposals, as well as one block diagram drawing of the
system. For a$1000 Design Retainer, the client will receive up to three versions, one block diagram drawing, and one basic
cabinet audio placement and specification drawing. The retainer covers design and engineering time and is non-refundable.

1. Contract Documents and Details
The contract documents consist of this agreement, including all general provisions, special provisions, specifications, drawings,
addenda, change orders, written interpretations, and written orders for minor changes in work. Work not covered by contract
documents will not be required unless it is required by reasonable inference as being necessary to produce the intended result.
The costs associated with any related work or materials, including, but not limited to electrical, drywall, painting, cabinets are not
included unless specifically documented in the proposal. Nelco Media is not responsible for any underground trenching or laying
or supplying of conduit for outside wiring.
2.Time
With respect to schedule completion of the tasks in section D, time is of the essence. If Nelco Media is delayed at any time in the
progress of the work by owner change orders, fire, labor disputes, acts of God or other causes beyond Nelco Media's control, the
completion schedule for the work or affected parts of the work shall be extended by the same amount of the time caused by the
delay.
3. Payments and Completion
The above Payment Schedule is a guideline and approximation. Since Nelco Media will, if possible, open, test and burn-in
equipment before delivery, all components must be paid for before delivery to job site. Payments may not be withheld under any
circumstances.Any disputes due to legal claims will be settled independently in good faith between the parties. Final payment shall
be due immediately following completion of the project. Nelco Media will hold owner harmless with respect to claims of
subcontractors and suppliers.
4. Insurance
Nelco Media shall purchase and maintain such insurance necessary to protect from claims under workers compensation and from
any damage to the owners property resulting from the conduct of this contract.
5. Changes in the Contract
The owner may order changes, additions, or modifications without invalidating the contract. Such changes must be in writing and
signed by the owner. Nelco Media shall provide the owner in writing the amount of additional costs or cost reductions resulting
from changes ordered within 15 working days unless this requirement is waived in writing by the owner. Change Orders shall be
paid in full upon acceptance of change and shall not alter the contract's payment schedule. In case of product unavailability or
discontinuation, contractor reserves the right to substitute equipment of equal or better quality with clients approval. Contractor will
be held blameless in case of product unavailability or discontinuation.
6.Warranty
Contractor warranties all parts and labor involved in an installation for one year. Contractor will also be glad to help the client get
their manufacturer-warrantied equipment serviced though out the life of the said warranty.

ITEM/SUBJECT: Funding requests for June 4, 2026 meeting
ATTACHMENTS: Funding request from OG Cellars (2 documents)
• Item 4 — Funding request from OG Cellars
Amount Requested: $24,498
James Hangar, do OG Cellars Winery, is requesting $24,498 in assistance to help fund
the installation of a commercial fire sprinkler system and related life-safety improvements
at its newly relocated tasting room in Century Plaza. The winery recently moved from a
2,020-square-foot downtown location to a 3,600-square-foot facility near Midwestern
State University, Vernon College, multiple hotels, and the planned University Town
Center redevelopment. City code requirements triggered by the change in use and
occupancy capacity require installation of a fire sprinkler system before the facility can
operate at its full intended capacity of more than 120 seated guests and a total capacity
of approximately 175. The total project investment is estimated at $244,979.99, including
a 20% contingency (see attached). The accompanying Exhibit A provides a detailed
accounting of relocation, construction, furnishings, equipment, and code-compliance
expenses, including approximately $49,400 for the fire sprinkler system.
The proposal states that the project will increase taxable sales, tourism activity, and local
sales tax collections while providing a safe, code-compliant venue that contributes to the
economic vitality of Wichita Falls.
This request was originally submitted just after the deadline for the May 2026 meeting; as
such, the project to install the suppression system is underway. Staff will provide an
update on progress at the meeting.

Date:3/22/26
To the 4B Sales Tax Corporation Board:
OG Cellars Winery has relocated from downtown Wichita Falls to Century Plaza off Maplewood (2611 Plaza
Pkwy,Suite 302B).OG Cellars is an award-winning winery that brings both tourism and local sales tax
revenue to the City of Wichita Falls.
This new location is in a prime commercial corridor across the street from the Sikes Senter redevelopment
project, between Midwestern State University and Vernon College, and less than one mile from eight major
hotel chains.
Upon inspection for a Certificate of Occupancy of the newly renovated premises,the Fire Marshal and City
Planning Department determined that the space must comply with City Code requirements associated with
a Change of Use.As a result,the City Code requires installation of a commercial fire sprinkler system.
Under code calculations,the maximum occupancy for the facility is 172 persons. Since this occupancy
exceeds 100 persons,the fire sprinkler system requirement is triggered.
Attached hereto is a proposal from Landon Veitenheimer of Ferguson Veresh to install said system.The City
has agreed to allow at least six(6) months for this installation to be completed.
A detailed spreadsheet of all project-related expenses is attached hereto as Exhibit A-OG Cellars
Relocation&Code Compliance Project Costs.

1 . Executive Summary
OG Cellars Winery respectfully requests Type B(4B)funding assistance to support the installation of a
commercial fire sprinkler system and associated life-safety improvements in its recently relocated 3,600 sq
ft facility in Century Plaza.
This investment will:
• Ensure full code compliance and public safety
• Unlock the full operating capacity(172 by code, 120 by seating-up from 60 in the previous location)
• Enable hosting of private events and larger group tastings
• Drive measurable increases in local sales tax revenue
Requested 4B Participation: $24,498.00
Total Project Cost:$244,979.99(including 20%contingency for unforeseen expenses)
2. Project Description
OG Cellars Winery relocated its tasting room to meet growing customer demand and position the business
as a regional destination for wine, events, and tourism.
The business previously operated in a 2,020 sq ft space in a declining downtown area and has now
relocated to a 3,600 sq ft facility in Century Plaza—across the street from the highly anticipated Sikes
Senter redevelopment project, between Midwestern State University and Vernon College,and less than one
mile from eight major hotel chains.
All renovations have been completed except for the installation of the commercial fire sprinkler system
required by City Code.
The commercial fire sprinkler system will:
• Ensure the building is fully code-compliant with applicable life-safety codes
•Allow occupancy to increase
• Enable hosting of private events, group tastings, and community gatherings
OG Cellars has been granted a temporary Certificate of Occupancy for 99 occupants until installation has
been completed.Without this system installed in a timely manner,the facility will not be permitted to
continue operating at full potential.
3. Public Benefit
This project directly aligns with Type B funding priorities.
Page 77 of 109
Economic Impact
•Increased taxable sales from higher visitor volume
• Expanded event programming driving consistent traffic
•Attraction of out-of-area visitors
Community Impact
• Safe,code-compliant gathering space
•Venue for local events,fundraisers,and community engagement
• Strengthens the economic vitality of the surrounding district
• Enhancement of Wichita Falls as a destination city
Infrastructure & Safety
•Installation of a modern fire suppression system
• Reduction of public safety risk
• Long-term compliance with building codes
4. Financial Impact & Sales Tax Generation
OG Cellars has generated over$12,000 in revenue during its first 12 days of operation.This period included
several small, low-attendance soft openings as well as a two-day Grand Opening event,which drew
approximately 100 guests each day and accounted for approximately$5,800 of total revenue.
Operating five days per week, excluding special events,the business is conservatively projected to generate
approximately$260,000 in baseline annual revenue under current occupancy limits.
With the installation of a fire sprinkler system,allowable occupancy will increase from 60 persons at the
previous location to over 120 seated guests at the new location, representing a 100%increase in
operational capacity.
This increased capacity will allow OG Cellars to host larger groups and private events, unlocking the full
potential of the facility.
Based on this increased capacity, OG Cellars conservatively projects annual revenue growth to between
$260,000 and $520,000 annually, representing a substantial increase in annual taxable sales.
Previous Downtown Location (2022-2025)
•Average Annual Sales: approximately$91,000
• Limited occupancy and declining traffic restricted growth

• $5,200-$10,400(City of Wichita Falls-2%)

5-Year Estimated Sales Tax Impact

• $214,500-$429,000(State)
• $52,000-$104,000(City)

1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
Request to hear a rezone of +/- 8.14 acres of land located at 2944 Seymour Hwy.
(23.32 acres out of Abstract 377, J V Wheeler and Business Personal Property) from
General Commercial (GC) to a Manufactured Home Residential (MHR) zoning district to
allow for an RV park expansion.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
Staff met with Eric Barnes to discuss the expansion of an existing RV park. In the pre-
development meeting, staff informed him of the zoning designation and the allowed
uses in the current General Commercial zoning designation on the vacant portion of
land to be developed. Staff determined that the proposed development would not meet
the by-right development standards. Staff advised of the option to rezone the properties
to a Manufactured Home Residential (MHR) designation by extending the MHR district
on the rest of the property. A rezone application was then submitted for the following
Planning and Zoning Commission meeting.
The 8.14-acre rezone proposal is situated in the central portion of the City at Seymour
Page 95 of 109
Highway. The rezone site is currently vacant land owned by the Wichita Falls RV Park.
To the east of the subject site is Camp Fire North Texas and an office building. To the
north is the Wichita River and the Hike & Bike Trail. To the west and south is primarily
commercial businesses within a General Commercial zoning district.
When comparing the proposed use to other uses, the proposed site sits between the
Wichita River, commercial businesses, and the Hike & Bike Trail. Staff recommended a
petition to rezone the property to correct split zoning and extend the use around the
area.
1 . Changed Conditions: In the immediate area surrounding the proposed
development, there is some new development. The newest development in
the area is the extension of the Hike & Bike Trail just north of the RV park.
The growth beyond the immediate area that has occurred needs to be
fostered.
2. Relationship to the Comprehensive Plan: The current Land Use Plan
designation for the property is primarily Parks & Open Space, and Mobile
Home Parks. With the current attraction of new residents to the area, the area
has the potential to see further development.
3. The nature and degree of impact upon neighboring lands: The proposed
site selected for development, 2944 Seymour Highway, will mirror the
development of the rest of the RV park on this address. This site is separated
from other land by the Wichita River/Hike & Bike Trail to the north, and
Seymour Highway to the south.

Transmittal Letter
Agenda Item Number: 11.a.
Agenda Item Name: Resolution authorizing a contract for the replacement of the City's
Outdoor Warning System through the Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC)
Purchasing Cooperative to OmniWarn LLC, in the amount of $1,834,032
Council Action to be Taken: Consider and take action on proposed Resolution.
Department Submitted: Fire

Cody Melton, Fire Chief
Stephen Calvert, Director of Finance/CFO
1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
The Wichita Falls Fire Department is requesting approval to replace the City's Outdoor
Warning System in the amount of $1,834,032. The project will modernize the City's
emergency warning infrastructure by installing a more reliable and technologically
advanced siren system that enhances public safety, improves system reliability, and
ensures long-term sustainability for outdoor emergency notifications. Texas Local
Government Code §252.022 exempts items purchased through interlocal cooperative purchasing
contracts from the State's competitive bidding requirements. This chapter does not apply to
expenditures for. . . (12) personal property sold. . . under an interlocal contract for cooperative
purchasing administered by a regional planning commission established under Chapter 391.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
The majority of the City's Outdoor Warning System has exceeded its intended service
life, resulting in increasing maintenance requirements, reduced reliability, and limited
availability of replacement parts. Following direction from City leadership, the Wichita
Falls Fire Department assumed responsibility for the Outdoor Warning System and
contracted with OmniWarn to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the existing
infrastructure. The assessment concluded that replacement of the current system is the
Page 100 of 109
most reliable and cost-effective long-term solution. The proposed system includes
modern sirens with advanced diagnostics, remote monitoring, selective activation
capabilities, and a long-term maintenance program.
Since 2025, City Council has received multiple updates regarding the Outdoor Warning
System, including changes to activation criteria, system performance, maintenance
challenges, and the results of the OmniWarn assessment. Staff evaluated both repair
and replacement options and determined that full replacement provides the greatest
long-term benefit to the City by improving public safety, reducing future maintenance
costs, and ensuring a reliable emergency warning system for years to come.
3. BOARD REVIEW / CITIZEN INPUT
The proposed Outdoor Warning System replacement has been reviewed collaboratively
by the Fire Department, Finance Department, Public Works Department, Traffic
Engineering, and Emergency Management, all of whom support moving forward with
the project. Additionally, citizen feedback received during public meetings and following
recent severe weather events has consistently demonstrated strong community support
for maintaining a reliable, fully functional Outdoor Warning System as a critical
component of the City's public safety infrastructure.
4. RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the resolution authorizing the purchase and replacement
of the City's Outdoor Warning System in the amount of $1 ,834,032 to modernize the
City's emergency warning infrastructure and enhance the reliability of public safety
notifications.
5. FUNDING SOURCE
The primary source of funding (80%) will be General Fund Capital (1001360-77220).
The remaining 20% is from the Wichita Falls Type B Sales Tax Corporation.
6. TIMELINE
Upon approval and funding, the contract will be executed immediately, allowing the
manufacturer to begin production of the Outdoor Warning System components.
Installation will begin as equipment becomes available, with the goal of completing the
project by the end of 2026 early 2027.
7. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS
An alternative would be to continue maintaining the existing Outdoor Warning System
through ongoing repairs and component replacements as failures occur. However, due
to the age of the system, increasing maintenance costs, limited availability of
replacement parts, and reduced reliability, this option does not provide a long-term
solution and increases the risk of system failures during emergency events.

Agenda Item Number: 11.b.
Agenda Item Name: Resolution authorizing the City Manager to award bid and contract
for the 2026 Asphalt Rehabilitation Project to Freeman Paving, L.L.C. in the amount of
$2,274,352.95
Council Action to be Taken: Consider and take action on proposed Resolution.
Department Submitted: Engineering
Staff Contact:
Tyson Traw, Director of Engineering
1. PURPOSE / DESCRIPTION
Approval of the resolution will authorize the City Manager to award bid and contract for
the 2026 Asphalt Rehabilitation Project to Freeman Paving, LLC in the amount of
$2,274,352.95. Competitive and favorable bid prices were received on the project,
which included a base bid package and three separate additive alternate packages.
Staff recommends awarding the base bid and additive alternates one (1) & three (3) to
Freeman Paving, LLC, who submitted the lowest responsible bid and has successfully
completed similar projects.
2. STAFF ANALYSIS / BACKGROUND / PRIOR COUNCIL ACTIONS
The 2026 Asphalt Rehabilitation Project consists of rehabilitating deteriorated asphalt
streets through full-depth base repairs, milling, asphalt overlay, pavement markings,
and other associated work. These improvements will restore pavement condition,
improve ride quality, extend the service life of the roadways, and reduce future
maintenance costs by addressing existing pavement deficiencies. On July 9, 2026, two
sealed bids were received and the bid tabulation sheet is attached.

4. RECOMMENDATION
Approval of the resolution.
5. FUNDING SOURCE
General Fund-Street Maintenance (1008220-77220) FY26 Budget
6. TIMELINE
Construction of this project is expected to require two-hundred and twenty-five (225)
calendar days to complete.
7. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS
1 . Reject all bids. — This option would delay pavement preservation, result in higher
long-term maintenance costs, and negatively impact citizens.
2. Award all or a different combination of additive alternate bid packages. — This option
could expand the scope of the project to take advantage of the favorable bid prices, but
would require additional appropriation of funding above the FY26 budget.
