She thanked Jamie Moore for the Code Red information he provided at the meeting.

who are eligible have not filed for this money.
Councilor Elmore said that he would like to pursue the proposal that the City apply to
the Air Force Museum for an aircraft to be placed on a pedestal at the location of the "Fly Over"
Expressway. He asked for other Council support. Mayor Lyne said he would like to see the

Manager said they will see what can be done.
385
Item 11 b continued
Mr. Jack Murphy informed that the City did have one of these aircrafts at Lake Wichita
but it was removed after someone climbed the fence to get to the aircraft and was seriously
injured.
Councilor Ginnings suggested the Military Affairs Committee for possible financial
assistance.
Councilor Barham congratulated Mr. Jack Murphy on the Blue Grass Festival held at
MPEC; good attendance and was well worth being inside. Councilor Hatcher did a good job of
emceeing. Hope we can do it again inside next year.
Councilor Barham gave kudos to Mr. Bob Sullivan and Penny Bridges and their staff on
the magazine ads touting Wichita Falls. One ad was in the Texas Highways Magazine in
conjunction with wineries throughout the state and the winery here in Wichita Falls. Penny
Bridges is doing a good job; let's keep that up, it is much appreciated.
Councilor Barham asked about the rodent problem at Sikes. City Attorney informed that
we have responded to that situation and are in the process of resolving it. He will speak
privately with Councilor Barham about this.
Councilor Hatcher said he had a good time at the Blue Grass Festival and worked to
stay away from the cameras.
Councilor Hatcher welcomed the Mayor back and said it was good to have him back.
Councilor Hatcher stated that the Parkhill Road residents would like to see their road
taken better care of, and he asked if it is on the list for overlay. He added that they would like
to see it widened. Public Works Director Russell Schreiber said he will check into it.
Councilor Hatcher asked staff to look into the alleyway situation between Tobago and
Martinique and between Barbados and Haiti; it is really bad in some areas. He suggested
looking at the dumpster placements in the alley as a possible solution.
Councilor Hatcher mentioned the Texas Department of Transportation meeting they had
attended, noting that it had not been held here in twelve years. He commended everyone at
Midwestern State University and everyone involved as well as everyone at the local TXDOT for
putting on a great meeting and showing the State Commissioners a good time. It makes
Wichita Falls look good.
Councilor Hatcher mentioned the Berend's Landing Bridge and stated that the
committee working on that is going to do what they can. He asked anyone who has an interest
to get in touch with him, Councilor Elmore, Roby Christy or anyone at Streams &Valleys.
Councilor Ginnings asked if we have the capacity to fill the elevated tank at Cypress.
Public Works Director Schreiber replied that we do once we close some valves out there to
basically establish that fourth pressure plane and we think we can fill it on a temporary basis
with the existing high service pumps. Councilor Ginnings asked if it had been filled yet and Mr.
Schreiber replied that it has not been filled yet.
Councilor Ginnings asked for a report on the micro filtration repair project. Mr.
Schreiber said it had been moving along pretty well and gave a detailed update.
Councilor Ginnings mentioned the memo on graffiti and asked if that was going to come
up any time soon. City Manager informed that the memo was for background information and
he would like to place it on the next agenda for discussion only; then if Council decides it can
be brought back as an ordinance at a following meeting.
Councilor Ginnings mentioned elderly persons being threatened by dogs, overfriendly
dogs that are let out of neighbor's cars and knock down elderly folks in their yard. He asked if
we have an adequate procedure to file a complaint that would bring both parties into a
negotiating or judicial situation. For instance, write a ticket then they have to show up and
answer complainant.
City Attorney stated that we have a vicious dog ordinance, which has criteria that has to
be met in order to establish a vicious dog. Health Director Lou Franklin explained that it has to
be an aggressive action against someone by the animal, have bitten another animal or a
person or chased a person. There are criteria and we do have vicious dog affidavits that if a
person feels an animal is acting aggressive towards them and is out, but if the animal is
386
Item 11 b continued
Confined, that is not grounds for a vicious dog because that animal is contained at all times.
The City Attorney added that we have an investigation process for vicious dogs and an at large
ordinance if a dog is not on a leash or confined in the back yard. If the dog is not on a leash
inside the car and is let out, it is considered to be at large.
Councilor Ginnings explained that he was thinking more about a police investigation
situation than animal control because they nearly have to see something happen and it is too
late once someone has been seriously injured. It is too bad when you have to wait until after
something bad has happened.
Councilor Ginnings commented that large numbers of apartment complexes are being
built in our City and some are very large, and are experiencing high crime rates. He asked for
an opinion for an ordinance to require some law enforcement/trained person or some level of
security. He asked if that is something we can pursue.
City Attorney stated that would be something for us to look at. It appears to me to have
some possibilities, but we can look into that.
Councilor Ginnings commented that Chief Bachman is looking at some things in that
area that are voluntary, but I am interested in if we need to look at something a little more
stringent. He was concerned that in10-15 years from now, in some instances, they will be
trashed crime ridden situations. He related a situation he saw in a major city in the Midwest
several years ago where many complexes had been built and huge amounts of money spent
but were not well taken care of resulting in what his concern is for our City when these
complexes are not maintained.
Mayor Lyne was glad to be back. He thanked Mayor Pro Tern Elmore and other
Councilors who filled in for him at different events while he was gone.
Mayor Lyne referred to the TXDOT meeting and thanked our folks who were involved,
John Burrus, Bob Sullivan and their staffs. They really came together to make it a success. He
told the State Commissioners that what we put on for them was not unusual because that is
what Wichita Falls does. When we bring organizations together like Texas Department of
Transportation and Midwestern State University we put on an entertaining time and a
welcoming place to come. It is not unique just because we had the State TXDOT
Commissioners here; it is what we do for everybody who comes into town on a regular basis.
They like to come here because they are not treated quite as nicely in other parts of the State
because of some of the controversies going on. They enjoy their time here and we welcome
them back any time.
Mayor Lyne reminded City Manager to begin scheduling the town hall meetings so we
can get started on those again.
Mayor Lyne stated that he has mixed emotions about the comments made by Councilor
Ginnings on the apartment complexes and security because he thinks the property owners
should be responsible for that. There may be something we can do to encourage the property
owner whether that is by ordinance or influence. They should take care of their customers;
whether it is a subsidized housing program or federally owned program. We do not have that
problem with federally owned housing because we are involved in it. We do not have those
problems but in some areas the property does age and deteriorate and it does make it more
difficult. Our job is to protect our citizens. These complexes have density and that creates
problems.
City Manager reminded Council that within one week they will receive his preliminary
budget, and on August 15 after the regular Council meeting they will begin the formal budget
hearings.
Mayor Lyne mentioned the food Bank drive and City Manager informed that the City is
already involved. Mayor stated that this is something that anyone can get involved in. Food
will be collected during Hunger Awareness Week, September 19. He commented that the Food
Bank does not get their freebies like they used to so we all need to help out.
Items 12 and 13a-c
City Council went into Executive Session at 10:45 a.m. as authorized by Section
551.072 and Section 551.074 of The Texas Government Code.
