Motion seconded by Alderman Boston.
Alderman Morris asked how much money this will generate, or will it cost more
to collect it since the first $2500 is exempt?
The City Manager stated that our only responsibility would be to provide
whatever law enforcement might be needed. The City does not collect it. It is
collected by the State Comptroller. Copies of each application must be provided
to the City. The City Manager knew of only one application, but City Clerk Wilma
Thomas noted that she had received three applications. Mr. Bach explained that
virtually all authority rests with the comptroller's office.
Alderman Shearman asked if the City of Wichita Falls could tax this first
$2500? The City Manager stated that the state statute will not permit it.
The motion was carried by the following vote.

RESOLUTION NO. 70-82
RESOLUTION APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO

Manager is authorized to execute such agreement for the City of Wichita Falls .
Moved by Alderman Morris that Resolution No. 70-82 be passed.
Motion seconded by Alderman Russell .
Alderman Shearman asked how many times the city police and fire departments
use this gym? The City Manager stated that the Fire Department has not used it
at all . The Police has used it from five to ten times a month for various
purposes. We are trying to expand it so that all city employees can use it.
Alderman Shearman stated that it seems it might be a high price to pay for
it. The City Manager stated that we do not pay any utilities or janitorial
services, and he does not know that the school has used the maximum of water
authorized.

Item 9a
Bids were considered on an oil and gas lease at Lake Kickapoo.
Moved by Alderman Shearman that the bid be awarded as follows:
To Burns Leasing Corporation for 98.5 acres of Tract 4 at $35.00 per acre,
totaling $3,447.50, plus a delay rental of $1.00 per acre for four years in the
amount of $394.00, for a total amount of $3,841.50; and,
To L and H Oil Company for 76.5 acres of Tracts 2 and 3 at $50.00 per acre,
totaling $3,812.50, plus $2.00 per acre annual delay rental in the amount of $814.40,
for a total amount of $4,626.90. This would assure the City of Wichita Falls
$8,468.40 total yield, or a better deal of $1,653.50.
Motion seconded by Alderman Wilson.
City Attorney H. P. Hodge, Jr. stated that he does not believe we can do what
Alderman Shearman is suggesting because we advertised for proposals for all or a
part of the total acreage put up for bids. There is no way we can accept part of
a proposal . On construction projects the bidder advertises to do a complete job,
and not a part of it. He does not see there is any way we can award a partial bid
in this case.
Alderman Shearman noted that in the first paragraph it states that the City of
Wichita Falls will accept a bid on all or any part of it.
Mr. Hodge
and,explained
but as that
we left the option that the bidder could bid on any part
construes it, that was up to the bidder, and not to the Council .
Mayor Cook explained the bids as he understands it. Mr. Hodge agreed. Alderman
Hampton stated that we have two choices -- to accept the bids as submitted, or reject
both bids and advertise again under a different method of advertising.
Mayor Cook asked if the 164 acres were under water which were not bid on?
Alderman Hampton noted that it seems that way.
Alderman Wilson felt we should defeat this motion, and put this land out for
bids by tract.
Jim Horany appeared representing the partner and owner of L and H Oil Company.
He stated that in his opinion, the motion made by Alderman Shearman is correct.
Burns bid only on a part of Tract 4. He found out later that the 98 acres were
not under water. He did not know
the
prohib�t ther he w�ity from awardinguld have bid on ttwoHbids
stated that he knows of no law which would
in accordance with the way it was advertised. If Burns does not want it that way,
he will be glad to take it up.
Alderman Wilson .asked Mr. Horany if he represented Burns would he feel they
could require specific performance

322
Item 9a, cont'd.
City Attorney H. P. Hodge, Jr. stated that we could not accept Horany's offer
on the 98 acres because they did not bid it.
Mayor Cook asked Mr. Hodge, as legal advisor to this Council , can we accept
Alderman Sherman's motion? Mr. Hodge stated that it can be accepted, but we
cannot enforce it.
The motion failed by the following vote.
Ayes : Alderman Shearman
Nays: Mayor Cook, Aldermen Hampton, Russell , Wilson, Morris and Boston
Moved by Alderman Wilson that oil and gas lease bids be rejected, and that
this property be re-advertised by tracts, and bids be accepted by tracts.
Motion seconded by Alderman Shearman.
Moved by Alderman Hampton that an amendment to the motion provide for a
minimum bid of 3/16 royalty on all tracts.

City Attorney H. P. Hodge, Jr. stated that on this 80-acre tract they would
take bids on the whole tract for all or nothing. The minimum royalty would be
3/16, for a five-year term, with development to be from the surface to a depth
of 2000 feet.
The motion was carried by the following vote.
Ayes : Mayor Cook, Aldermen Shearman, Hampton, Russell , Wilson, Morris and
Boston

Item lla
The meeting of the Board of Aldermen was recessed to consider a report of the
Committee of the Whole to the Board of Aldermen concerning the police pay step
initiative petition.
City Manager Stuart Bach recommended that an educational and certification
incentive, and a modified compressed longevity pay plan be received.
Mayor Cook stated that the Committee of the Whole felt in the work session
last Friday that a compressed modified longevity pay plan, with a cut-off at 16
years, should be considered, coupled with education/certification incentives in
the plan.
Moved by Alderman Hampton that the report of the Committee of the Whole be
presented to the Board of Aldermen.
Motion seconded by Alderman Shearman, and carried unanimously.
The Committee of the Whole was dissolved, and the meeting of the Board of
Aldermen was resumed.
Moved by Alderman Shearman that the report of the Committee of the Whole be
received.
Motion seconded by Alderman Russell , and carried unanimously.
Mayor Cook stated that we now have 30 days to take final action on the recommenda-
tion of the Committee of the Whole.
Item llb
The City Manager stated that in preparing the Ringgold report the Council has
received, they were faced with several constraints . The February report stated that
the project would not be needed until 2010 unless our population changes. There is
324
Item llb, cont'd.
a great deal of competition for water resources, and water development. There is
some concern that other cities might also be considering this same location. Once
you receive a permit, you should proceed with construction within two years from
the time the permit was received. This protects this yield for your jurisdiction.
The last aspect of the report was the dollar amount considered. Construction of
the lake is estimated to be almost 65 million dollars. It would mean a very
sizable bond issue and water rate increase in Wichita Falls.
He recommended a phased approach. The pace could be accelerated. The four
phases included (1) hydrologic analysis, which means that 17,000 acres of land
would have to be purchased. This would be in partnership with TESCO. They
would determine how far above the 845 elevation we should go for the 200-300
year flood. Determination would also be made as to whether an additional 14,000
acres would be needed. The cost for this phase would be $25,000, and it would
take 90-120 days to complete it.
The second phase would be a recommendation that we apply for a permit from
the Texas Water Commission and Texas Water Resources. They indicated that we
should go ahead and apply. They have extended some of these permits from six
years to a total of sixteen years. It would cost $50,000 for a permit application.
Engineering expertise is primarily needed for this application. We would seek
permit extensions.
The third phase would be surveying and mapping property which we may be
purchasing. A storage basin of 17,000 acres would be needed. Estimated costs
are $136,000 to $248,000, plus right-of-entry fees. We would need to negotiate
longer term agreements with Texas Electric.
The fourth phase would be actual purchase of property for the reservoir site.
The parcels we would want to acquire first depends on how much money we have to
spend, whether we pay surface or sub-surface rights , and whether we allow people
to live on the property for several years, etc.
Alderman Hampton asked for an explanation of the West Texas Utility Fund.
Joe Smith, Director of Public Utilities, stated that it is for a generating plant
for the West Texas Utilities. The City of Wichita Falls and the Water District
are co-owners of Lakes Kemp and Diversion. In order for them to have water, West
Texas Utilities came up with holding water. They pay an annual amount for holding
this water, and they put it in a trust fund. They pay $300,000 per year, split
50-50 until the year 1987. They will then pay $500,000 annually for five years
unless West Texas Utilities has their plant built. It is 24 cents per thousand
gallons water for what they use. We have a contract to supply them 20,000 acre
feet per year. This money has been put in a trust fund to be used for development
of future water projects. We have used $100,000 out of this fund for repairs to
Lake Kickapoo. Mayor Cook asked how much money we have in this fund right now?
The City Manager stated that we have $100,000.
Alderman Wilson asked if we could have some idea of the extent of participation
with Texas Electirc? The City Manager stated that it would be 50-50 on the
hydrological analysis.
Jack Redding, Manager of Texas Electric, stated that they anticipate they will
remain partners with the City up to 50 percent. They want to look to the future.
If the City moves ahead too much, they would want to review it. At this time they
do not foresee building a power plant on this lake. It is not even in their plans.
They would work with the City on longer range terms.
Alderman Hampton asked if we drop below the Noah flood, are we getting into
trouble with any of the state agencies? Dick Manahan, Assistant Director of
Public Utilities, stated that they need to know at what elevation they want
them to acquire land. Joe Smith stated we would not be in trouble with the
Corps of Engineers. The Corps is not holding us to the PMF. The Corps is
concerned with safety of the dam. Mr. Manahan stated that the 845 contour is
at Henrietta. The 865 contour is about halfway between Henrietta and Lake
Arrowhead. Before it is mapped, we have to decide what easements are needed.
Mayor Cook noted that steps 1 and 2 would take seven months. We have the
money to take care of Step 1.
325
Item llb, cont'd.
Moved by Alderman Hampton that we approve Step 1 (hydrologic analysis) , and
that the money the City will spend will come from the West Texas Utility Fund.
Motion seconded by Alderman Wilson, and carried unanimously.
Alderman Shearman requested that the Council be presented these documents
earlier next time. He received them at 9:00 o'clock P.M. last night.
The City Manager apologized for the short notice.
Item llc
David Brock requested that he be placed on the Human Relations Commission at
the first opening. He also suggested that inactive members on all boards and
commissions be replaced. :,.,..
Mayor Cook noted that they are in the process of drawing up new procedures
for appointing board and commission members. The City Manager will have it
prepared for the Council in the near future. They will be looking at the inactive
members.

CITY OF WICHITA FALLS
INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
To: Stuart A. Bach, City Manager
DATE: April 20, 1982
FROM: Edward A. Barrett, Director of Administrative Services
SUBJECT: Further Information, Police Salary Initiative.
At the working session of the Board's Committee of the Whole held
on April 16, 1982, the Board requested that additional information be
presented regarding education and certification pay and the modified
longevity system. This information is provided below.
Education and Certification Pay.
On April 16, the petitioners presented a revised certification pay
schedule calling for $80 per month for an Intermediate Certificate and
$125 per month for an advanced certificate. Prior to this time, discussion
has centered on proposals calling for $40/$80 or $50/$100. Petitioners
also indicated that they preferred eliminating the current education program
and substituting a certificate only program.
At the present time, 37 officers hold intermediate certificates ana
35 (excluding the Chief of Police) hold advanced certificates . Eleven (11 )
other officers who hold Basic certificates are currently receiving payments
under the educational incentive program. These 11 officers are receiving
$8,083 per year. Elimination of the educational incentive program would
have a negative effect on these officers since they are not currently
holding either intermediate or advanced certificates.
In addition, five (5) officers with intermediate certificates are
now receiving $80 per month under the education incentive program and one
officer is receiving $70 per month. Unless the rates were set at $80
per month for an intermediate certificate, these officers would also
suffer a monthly pay reduction.
Because of these considerations , the costs presented below are based
on a combined education and certification program. In light of the new
proposal presented by the petitioners , an additional option ($60/$120)
is also presented. Table 1 presents the cost of the education/certification
options for FY82-83. Table 2 presents the total four year costs of these
programs (FY81-82 through 84-85) .

*Four year estimates for savings through the elimination of education p-ay
are based on current information. Actual four year savings are likely to
be substantially lower as officers move upward into intermediate and advanced
certificates. It would be reasonably assumed that all or almost all officers
currently in the education program will have moved into the certification
program during the next three fiscal years .
Modified Longevity.
Per the Board's request, a revised modified longevity plan has been
analyzed. This plan compresses the longevity increases in order to provide
Further Information, Police Salary Initiative.
Page 3
a greater salary increase earlier in a commissioned officer's career.
Due to this compression, two options have been prepared as follows :
OPTION ONE OPTION TWO
Years of Service Longevity Years of Service Longevity
1-4 $ 6 1-4 $ 6
5-8 $ 9 5-8 $ 9
9-12 $12 9-12 $12
13-25 $15 13-16 $15
17+ Maximum of $240/month
As can be seen, the second option is substantially the same as the first
option except that it sets a maximum limit on the total dollar amount to
be paid in longevity. Under the first option, the maximum payment at 25
years of service would be $375 (25x$15) . Under the second, the maximum
payment would be reached at 16 years of service and would be $240 per
month (16x$15) .
Table 3 below presents cost figures on both of these options for
FY 82-83. Table 4 presents four year costs.

2For CURRENT, education pay used is $80 per month. For all other options ,
education and certificate pay is $100 per month.
As can be seen, all options other than the current salary system would allow
officers to increase their salaries from 21 to 30 percent over 20 years and from
14 to 28%.over ten years. It should be noted, however, that such increases are
not guaranteed since a substantial portion of the increase is dependent upon
officer initiative in either pursuing further education or certification. However,
with the addition of certification pay, a monetary reward would be
made available to substantially more officers than are currently eligible
for education pay.
