RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WICHITA FALLS, TEXAS,
AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF EIGHT (8) -/,-TON PICKUPS FROM FOUR STARS
MOTORS IN THE AMOUNT OF $130,622.00; FINDING AND DETERMINING THAT THE
MEETING AT WHICH THIS RESOLUTION WAS PASSED WAS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
AS REQUIRED BY LAW
Items 6a-6b
Minutes of the following board and commission meetings were received
(a) Wichita Falls-Wichita County Public Health Board — October 6, 2006
(b) Traffic Safety Commission — November 1, 2006
Item 7a
A public hearing on the two taxi cab franchises in Wichita Falls relating to Section 110-62
of the Code of Ordinance was scheduled to hear public comments.
Gene Douglass, Attorney for Prezo, Inc. pointed out that he had notified the City Attorney
and the Assistant City Manager that they had not received adequate notice of this hearing. He
informed that neither the principle of Prezo, Inc. nor he could be here for the public hearing. He is
scheduled in 301" District Court at 9 a.m. this morning. He suggested that if the City is interested in
hearing their response that they be granted some reasonable delay because the ordinance states
that proper notice will be given.
City Attorney confirmed that they had received a letter from Mr. Douglass asking that the
item relating to his client Jody Wade, be continued so they could adequately respond to the issue.
The ordinance Mr. Douglass refers to states that "proper notice" will be given to the franchisees
before any serious action is taken with regard to their franchise. The ordinance does not define
what "proper notice" is. I advised Mr. Douglass that in my opinion the item had been properly
noticed and the item would continue, but the Council in its discretion could seek to continue the
hearing if they so desired.
Mayor asked if the Council wanted to continue this hearing.
Councilor Elmore said he would like to hear the response from the people involved. He
moved to table this item.
Motion seconded by Councilor Gonzalez.
City Attorney informed that Council could table both the public hearing and the ordinance
relating to this item under 7b.
Motion to table both the public hearing and the proposed ordinance under Item 7b carried
by the following vote.
Ayes: Councilors Roberts-Burns, Hatcher, Gonzalez, and Elmore
Nays: Mayor Lyne and Councilor Ammons
Mayor noted that this item would be placed on the February 6, 2007 Council agenda.
Item 7b
The proposed ordinance relating to the taxicab franchises was tabled along with
Item 7a first above.
Item 8a
A public hearing was held regarding regulations for curfew hours for minors.
10
Item 8a continued
Mayor declared the public hearing open. Mayor noted that this was the second public
hearing on this matter.
City Attorney stated that the law requires that every three years we review our curfew
ordinance to see if Council wishes to make changes or continue the ordinance in effect. This is
the second public hearing, and following this item is an action item that would continue the
ordinance in effect as written.
David Brock, 320 Hilltop, encouraged Council to continue the curfew ordinance. It is a tool
for the police as well as for the citizens. He asked Council to consider doing something about
notifying the citizens about the curfew, possibly noting it on the water bills.
Mayor called for additional public comments. There being none, Mayor declared the public
hearing closed.
Item 8b

Moved by Councilor Roberts-Burns that Ordinance No. 5-2007 be passed.

Dave Clark informed that the demolition contractor had not performed and we are
moving to have another contractor perform the work. In the mean time, the property owners
at this point would like to revise the structure into a storage area on the second floor, and
would like to obtain a restoration permit. He suggested thirty days to obtain the restoration
permit and ninety days for the construction phase. Mr. Clark noted that the property
owners had nothing to do with the demolition issue. Mr. Bobby Teague noted that it was
feasible to rehabilitate the structure into a storage area.
Mayor stated that Section 1 of the proposed ordinance would be amended to read
as follows: "The demolition order issued for the property at 1201 N. 9th (Rear) on April 4,
2006, is to be amended to authorize a Restoration Permit with the Permit to be obtained

Item 10b
PROPOSED RESOLUTION
OPTION 1:
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF WICHITA FALLS,
TEXAS, AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF ONE (1) %-TON CREW CAB
PICKUP FROM FOUR STARS MOTORS IN THE AMOUNT OF $17,694.75 AND
TWO (2) %-TON PICKUPS FROM PHILPOTT MOTORS IN THE AMOUNT OF
$30,457.00; FINDING AND DETERMINING THAT THE MEETING AT WHICH THIS
RESOLUTION WAS PASSED WAS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AS REQUIRED BY
LAW
Moved by Councilor Elmore that Option 1 under proposed resolution be passed.
Motion seconded by Councilor Ammons.
Mrs. Peggy Gahagan informed that since Patterson Auto Center, a local vendor, requested
the 5% local preference rule, two resolutions were submitted to the Council with two options.
Option One would award the bid for the two ton trucks to the low bidder Philpott Motors; Option
Two would award the bid for the two %ton trucks to Patterson Auto Center, local bidder. The 5%
local preference rule is authorized under the Local Government Code Section 271.9051. If
awarded to the local bidder, the additional cost would be an additional $848.35 for two ton
trucks.
Councilor Hatcher informed that he has executed and filed a potential Conflict of
Interest Affidavit with the City Clerk. Councilor Hatcher informed that Mr. Steve Garner,
13,
Item 10b continued
representative for Patterson Auto Center, is his Campaign Treasurer and there could be a
perception of a conflict. Councilor Hatcher stated that he would not participate in the vote
or discussion of this item.
Steve Garner, Patterson Auto Center Representative, stated that he wanted to invoke the
5% bid rule. The two trucks we bid on were two ton trucks; one bid was 3.2% or $477 higher
than the out of town bidder and one was 2.4% or $371 higher than the out of town bidder. We ask
Council to look at the benefit Patterson Auto Center brings to this community. We have 240
employees with a $12 million payroll; the tax impact to this City is quite substantial. We feel like in
the overall picture we offer more to this community than just the low bid on these two trucks. Over
$100,000 in sales taxes and over $200,000 in vehicle inventory taxes have been collected just
from our dealerships. We feel there are plenty of extenuating circumstances and there is a great
tax benefit to this community to override those two small amounts. . We ask that you invoke the
5% bid rule on these two trucks.
Motion for Option 1 failed by the following vote.
Ayes: Councilor Roberts-Burns
Nays: Mayor Lyne, Councilors Ammons, Gonzalez, and Elmore

Item 11 a
Mr. Dave Clark reported on contractor fees. He informed that State law requires
registration for one of the trades. We have a contractor registration and fees that are
accomplished in order to insure the possession of liability insurance to assure bonding and for us
to know what companies are operating in town. Sometimes it comes up in the matter of
enforcement for either building permit problems or work that is not being done up to Code and not
corrected. Meanwhile, these fees generate approximately $39,000 a year, and there is a cost to
the administration of this by staff. Because there are inequities in the fees we looked at other
ways to smooth that out and basically took the number of contractor fees registered with us and
divided them into the income which comes out to about $75/year. For some contractors this
would be a decrease from $600, but this would provide equity across the board. This proposal
was taken to the Construction Board of Adjustments and Appeals and they preferred not to have
any fees and asked that these fees be added on to the regular building permit fees so that the
folks across the board could pay for these fees. Staff is asking for Council's guidance on what you
would like to see — no fee, a flat fee for the contractors, or raising the minimum building permit
fees.
Council consensus was for a flat fee of $75. City Manager stated that staff would work on
that and bring it back to Council.
Item 11 b
Councilor Ammons congratulated John Burrus on his new dogs. Mr. Burrus informed that
those dogs have already been adopted.
Councilor Ammons was amazed at our Staff, and thanked Larry Krugle in the Street
Department for all the hard work they do especially during the ice. She also thanked the Police
Department for their work during the inclement weather.
Councilor Gonzalez thanked the Street Department workers; they did a great job. We do
not realize how vital staff is in the City. We need everyone to make the City run smooth where we
are not caught off-guard.
Councilor Gonzalez asked who was in charge of TESCO Park. They did a terrible job. That
was a waste of money out there. The light poles were just pulled down. City Manager informed
that Public Works supervises that work. Mr. Scott Taylor informed that prior to any work being
done we asked if anyone wanted any of the equipment out there and there were no takers. The
contractor was responsible for the lights and they use the means and methods they feel are best;
those items will be removed. He commented that it was a construction site.
Councilor Gonzales said that the Little League is going to work on a special field and they
should be contacted to see if they could use those lights. Mr. Taylor will contact them, but we had
no indication anyone wanted them.
Councilor Gonzalez asked if the sprinklers were turned off for the trees at TESCO. Mr.
Jack Murphy replied that they were. Mr. Taylor informed that a lot of those trees cannot be
transplanted because of their size and we will be replacing them. Mr. Murphy added that it is not
worth the cost because of their size; the cost to transplant them would be approximately $1000 per
tree and then they would die. It is better to purchase new smaller trees.
Councilor Gonzalez thanked Mr. Dave Clark and staff for working to bring the Cracker
Barrel Restaurant to Wichita Falls. City Manager informed that the City received a letter from their
Corporate Office expressing appreciation to the City for being the easiest and best City Staff with
which to work.
Councilor Hatcher commented that the Corporate Office had stated that our staff was
business friendly. They will break ground in March.
Councilor Hatcher thanked the Mayor and all those who attended the town hall meeting in
District 3. Good attendance and good questions.
Councilor Elmore informed that the District 5 town hall meeting will be February 15 at 7
p.m. at John Tower Elementary School. His town hall meetings will be cancelled for February.
He invited everyone to attend the reception for Mr. Steve Harris, the new City View ISD
Superintendent. It will be held Wednesday January 17, 2007 at City View High School from 4 p.m.
to 6 p.m.
' 16
Item 11 b continued
Councilor Roberts-Burns asked staff to look into the problem of the train blocking 7th Street
for a long period of time. Councilor Roberts-Burns invited everyone to attend the Martin Luther
King Breakfast January 20, 2007 at MPEC. Tickets are available at the MILK Center.
Mayor Lyne stated that the main purpose of the MILK Breakfast besides celebrating Martin
Luther King is the scholarships generated from that to help the students continue their education.
Mayor Lyne thanked the Police Force and its involvement when we have bad weather. Be careful
with the black ice, and when stations are forecasting "don't get on the streets—don't get on the
streets.
Mayor Lyne invited everyone to attend the town hall meetings.
Item 12a
