2. Presentation by HDR Engineering regarding an update on the Nix Tank and Coleman
Waterline Study
City Manager deGraffenried explained that Collin Dudley and Jim Glaser with HDR Engineering were
present to provide an update on the Nix Tank and Coleman Waterline study.
Mr. Dudley reviewed the following:
 Existing Pressure Planes
 Existing System – minimum pressures and contours
 Proposed Coleman Waterline – would increase 45 to 74 psi – reviewed the proposed 10” and 8”
waterline areas and the proposed flow control valve
 Two options to increase water flow:
o Raise the existing Nix Tank 35 feet would increase the flow. Piping improvements
would have to be done. This option would take six to eight weeks. The cost could be


$250,00 to $300,000 to elevate, $250,000 for rehab and piping, which could total
$600,000 to $700,000.
o Could put a small booster pump station adjacent to the Nix Tank – piping improvements
would need to be done – drawback on this option would be that it would be another
maintenance system to maintain.
Third option would be to replace the existing tank with a new one, which would be very costly.
The cost for a new one could be up to $625,000 and with piping improvements, could total up
to $800,000, if not more.
Shane Brown, Public Works Director, said that his standpoint would be to look at elevating the tank.
The present tank is in need of work and clean out due to corrosion. Another thought would be move to
the tank to the Sport Park property. He was not in favor of a pressure tank (booster pump).
Mayor Pro Tem Bierschwale asked if it would help if a new tank was put up at the Sports Park
property and then move the Nix Tank to replace the Georgetown Tank.
Brown said that they have looked at that possibility because they have been having trouble with the
Georgetown Tank.
Mr. Dudley, HDR Engineering said that he could have a report in two to three weeks on costs for the
options discussed.
3. Discussion regarding any item on the regular agenda
There was no discussion.

Watermaster – He provided Council a copy of the notification from the State regarding the
implementation of a Watermaster Program for the Brazos River Basin. Watermasters generally
have the authority to manage surface water rights, and in some cases, have the ability to ration
junior rights in the event of a call. Although the City maintains a strong position in terms of the
amount and seniority of its rights, the City should be actively engaged in water issues and
should consider participation in Region G, and the Advisory Committee. City staff will attend
the meeting in Killeen regarding the program implementation on November 17.
Charter – He will be meeting with Legal Counsel on November 3 to begin drafting amendment
language for Council review. Council will have an opportunity at future meetings to discuss
draft amendments or other suggested changes to the City’s Charter.

for Monday, November 3, at 6:30 p.m. in the Chamber of Commerce meeting room. The goal
of the meeting is to outline projects and priorities.
Camo Christmas – He provided Council a copy of the flyer for the Lighted Christmas Parade.
Sustainable Communities – He explained that the City received an invitation to participate by
memorandum of understanding in a multi City partnership promoting sustainable education,
recycling and conservation. He will place this item on a future agenda at Council’s discretion.
Tourism – The City will be hosting a stakeholder meeting on tourism on November 6 at 6:00
p.m. at the Old Middle School Cafeteria. The purpose of the meeting will be to elicit ideas for

Discussion and possible action regarding approval for Mad Goat Productions to use WM Brook
Park for a goat roping event on April 18, 2015
Kathi Masonheimer, Economic Development Director, explained that she was contacted by Will
Stevens with Mad Goat Productions requesting to use the WM Brook Park to put on the World’s
Largest Goat Roping on April 18, 2015. Mr. Stevens, Mad Goat Productions promoter, was present at
the meeting to explain this event.
Mr. Stevens explained that Mad Goat provides a forty feet by forty feet (40’x40’) self-contained arena
for the roping event. He anticipates this event to bring in thousands of visitors to Lampasas. He said
that the prize money would be at least $10,000 up to possibly $30,000. He had put on an event in Las
Vegas and it was a huge event. He said that he wanted Lampasas to be the birthplace of Mad Goat
Roping. He said that he could hold this event in another town but three major highways intersect in
Lampasas and believed it was an ideal location. He would bring in his own security crew for this
event, if allowed, and would like to see local vendors sell food and alcohol if permitted.
After discussion about the event, Council members felt that the WM Brook Park would not be the ideal
place to hold this event. Council felt that the Sports Park would be a better site. It was ideal because

of parking, restrooms, lighting and more land space. Since Mr. Stevens had not seen this location, they
asked him to look at the site. Council also reminded Stevens of having proper insurance for this event.
Council member Talbert moved to approve the request for Mad Goat Productions to hold a goat roping
event on April 18, 2015 contingent on site selection and with the stipulation that they provide proof of
insurance and name the City as additional insured. The motion was seconded by Council member
White and with a unanimous vote, the motion carried.
7.3
Discussion and possible action on waiving permitting fees for Schlotzskys
Kathi Masonheimer, Economic Development Director, explained that Schlotzsky’s developers have
requested that the City waive permitting fees totaling approximately $3,400. Schlotzskys will be
entirely all electric, so the City will gain from utility sales, as well as the ad valorem taxes.
Historically, the City has waived fees on a case by case basis.
Council member Toups moved to approve the waiving of permitting fees for Schlotzskys in an amount
not to exceed $3,400. The motion was seconded by Council member White and with a unanimous
vote, the motion carried.
7.4
Discussion and possible action regarding approval of the application and reporting process forms
for use by entities seeking use of Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) Funds
Kathi Masonheimer, Economic Development Director, explained that the City had met with the
Chamber of Commerce Director and Board member President on September 22 during workshop
session to discuss the contract with the City and the Chamber. After discussion, it was decided
through mutual consent that the City would handle requests from outside entities that request hotel
occupancy tax funds (HOT) for advertising.
Masonheimer presented a proposed guidelines and application form for the request of HOT funds.
This form is a starting point and can be modified. Deadline dates for applications will be advertised.
Council member Talbert moved to approve the application and reporting process forms for use by
entities seeking use of Hotel Occupancy Tax (HOT) Funds. The motion was seconded by Mayor Pro
Tem Bierschwale and with a unanimous vote, the motion carried.

Corporation Semi-Annual Report for the period ending September 30, 2014

Development Board met on Wednesday, October 15, 2014 and approved this Semi-Annual Report for
the period ending September 30, 2014.

Semi-Annual Report for the period ending September 30, 2014 as presented. The motion was

Discussion and possible action regarding Bids on Real Property of the Appraisal District
Council Minutes October 27, 2014

City Manager deGraffenried explained that the Lampasas Appraisal District solicited for bids for real
property that had past due taxes owed. This property has been struck off to the County, LISD and the
City. The two properties are:


Parcel 684, Lots 7 & 8, Block 31, GC & SF Addition – appraised value is $3,600.00
Parcel 8195, 1 acre +/-, John Burleson Survey – appraised value is $1,200.00
Two bids were submitted:
1. Robert Harris for Parcel 684 in the amount of $1,407.00.
2. John Robert McBryde for Parcel 8195 in the amount of $10.00.
deGraffenried said that Parcel 8195 would have significant titling issues because no one is sure where
this property is exactly located. This property has never been platted or surveyed. There is some
information that indicates that it is a strip of land that is less than an acre somewhere along the Sulphur
Creek, possibly under the 4th Street bridge. He said that LISD accepted the $10.00 bid.
Council member Talbert moved to accept the bid from Robert Harris for Parcel 684, Lots 7 & 8, Block
31, GC & SF Addition in the amount of $1,407.00 and the bid from John Robert McBryde for Parcel
8195, 1 acre +/-, John Burleson Survey in the amount of $10.00. The motion was seconded by Council
member Monroe and with a vote of six in favor and one opposed (Toups), the motion carried.
7.7
Discussion and possible action regarding the first reading of an Ordinance amending Chapter 54,
Parks and Recreation, Appendix A Fee Schedule to amend the Golf Course Fees; containing
repealer clause; containing severability clause; providing effective date
Van Berry, Golf Course Manager, explained that the reason for this proposed increase is to cover the
shortfall of the unexpected increase on the lease of the new golf cart rentals and the two utility
vehicles. The amount that was budgeted for 2014-2015 budget year was short $3,484.00. With the
proposed $1.00 increase on golf cart rentals, it would generate approximately $7,600.00, which would
cover the shortfall. This proposed increase is comparable to what surrounding golf courses are
charging.
Mayor Pro Tem Bierschwale moved to approve the first reading of an Ordinance amending Chapter
54, Parks and Recreation, Appendix A Fee Schedule to amend the Golf Course Fees; containing
repealer clause; containing severability clause; providing effective date. The motion was seconded by
Council member White and with a unanimous vote, the motion carried.
7.8
Discussion and possible action regarding approval of the purchase of wire for the City Hall
underground project from Irby Utilities in the amount of $5,175
Flint Geagley, Electric Superintendent, explained that the Electric Department is requesting approval
of the purchase of 500 feet of 500mcm copper wire and 500 feet of 250mcm copper wire from Irby
Utilities in the amount of $5,175.00 for the reconstruction of the underground to the City Hall and

the new Schlotzskys from Techline Inc. in the amount of $4,470
Flint Geagley, Electric Superintendent, explained that the Electric Department is requesting approval
to purchase three (3) 50kva transformers to service the new Schlotzsky’s building. He recommended
the purchase of the transformers from Techline Inc. in the amount of $4,470.00. The City has a
purchasing agreement with Techline through the LCRA Cooperative Purchasing Agreement.
Mayor Pro Tem Bierschwale moved to approve the purchase of three 50 kva transformers for the new
Schlotzskys from Techline Inc. in the amount of $4,470.00 and authorize the City Manager to execute
related documents. The motion was seconded by Council member White and with a unanimous vote,
the motion carried.
7.10
Discussion and possible action concerning the proposal for design of a 12” waterline in West 3rd
Street, from Key Avenue to Spring Street, by Eckermann Engineering
Dean Grant, Water/Wastewater Operations Manager, explained that this project will replace a six inch
(6”) waterline in West 3rd Street. This waterline has had over 50 leaks in the last five (5) years. The
waterline is twelve inches (12”) in diameter on East 3rd Street from Hackberry to the West side of Key
Avenue. The replacement of this line will not only replace a weak piece of infrastructure, but also
ensures a good potable water supply to the West side of the lower pressure plane.
Mayor Pro Tem Bierschwale moved to approve the proposal for design of a 12” waterline in West 3rd
Street, from Key Avenue to Spring Street, by Eckermann Engineering in the amount of $31,500.00 and
authorize the City Manager to execute the related documents. The motion was seconded by Council
member White and with a unanimous vote, the motion carried.
7.11
Discussion and possible action concerning the approval of a Resolution appointing Frost Capital
Markets Service (Frost Bank) to be and is hereby designated a Depository of City of Lampasas for
the safekeeping of Securities
City Manager deGraffenried explained that it was the recommendation of the City’s Financial Advisor,
Patterson and Associates, that the City appoint Frost Capital Markets Service (Frost Bank) as the
City’s safekeeping depository. The City did contact our depository bank, First State Bank of Central
Texas, and they do not offer this service.
deGraffenried said that the City will set up one account with Frost Bank and name the same
individuals authorized on the signature card to be the same as those listed at the depository bank which
is the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, City Manager and City Secretary. City staff reviewed all
documentation with Legal Counsel.
Council member Talbert moved to approve a Resolution appointing Frost Capital Markets Service
(Frost Bank) to be and is hereby designated a Depository of City of Lampasas for the safekeeping of

Securities. The motion was seconded by Council member Toups and with a unanimous vote, the
motion carried.
7.12
Discussion and possible action concerning a request from Perception Creative Art and Rock
School to host a Fundraiser Event at Ruth Eakin Theater
Micky Tower, Parks and Recreation Director, explained that the City was just made aware of a
fundraising event by Perception Creative Art and Rock School that includes the use of the City’s
outdoor Ruth Eakin Theater that would be charging an entrance fee. This event is scheduled for
Sunday, November 2, 2014 from 3:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Tower said that Judith McGinty, Director of the Perception Creative Art School was present to inform
Council of this event.
Ms. McGinty explained that Perception Creative Art School is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that
holds annual fundraisers to promote the arts in Lampasas through a live concert and art show call
Perception Fall Music Fest. She said that this is their 3rd Annual Music Fest that they have had at the
Ruth Eakin Theater. This year however, to raise more funds, they organized it differently this year by
charging an entrance fee, cooler fee and backstage passes fees. She did not realize that this change
made it necessary to come before Council for approval and apologized for that. When she made the
reservation of the Ruth Eakin at City Hall, she thought that was it and she obtained an alcohol permit
through the Police Department. She is seeking approval from Council to hold this event and will meet
all that is required by the City.
McGinty explained that the Perception Creative Art School nurtures and guides the artistic talents of
Central Texas residents. Students of all ages and backgrounds are provided instruction and various
avenue of participation in the visual and musical arts. Students who are enrolled in public or home
school, have passing grades and are in need of financial assistance may apply for a scholarship.
Flint Geagley, Electric Superintendent, explained that after hearing this request, the Ruth Eakin
Theater would not be available because the transformer at the stage was damaged from the last storm.
His crew had just made him aware of this issue and he ordered replacement parts for this transformer
but it won’t be in before this event. Another location will have to be used if they need electricity or
they would have to bring in generators.
After some discussion, the City’s pavilion was suggested as a possible site, City Manager
deGraffenried checked the City’s Code of Ordinance and Christina Marez, City Secretary, checked the
availability of the pavilion. The pavilion was available for use and deGraffenried said that per Section
54-170 (6) of the City’s Code of Ordinance, City Council may on a case by case basis approve
amplified music for events supported by the City for non-profit groups as long as the music is not
played between 10:00 p.m. and 12:00 noon.
Council member White moved to approve the fundraiser event for Perception Creative Art and Rock
School to be held at the City’s Pavilion as per Section 54-170 (6). The motion was seconded by Mayor
Pro Tem Bierschwale and with a unanimous vote, the motion carried.
Adjourn
Mayor Pro Tem Bierschwale moved to adjourn the meeting at 8:25 p.m. The motion was seconded by

Charter
As previously discussed, staff has met with Legal Counsel regarding
amendments to the City Charter. In a recent phone conversation with Counsel,
a tentative schedule for presentation to Council was discussed. J.C. will be
forwarding her draft and notes by the end of the month for distribution to
Council, and we have discussed her attendance in the January meeting to
further discuss and formalize amendments based on Council input. She is
preparing information and draft amendments based on Council request to
extend terms.
Council Planning
Staff will be organizing Council comments and direction based on our meeting
November 3rd for presentation during the November 24th workshop. Council
will be encouraged to provide additional input, as well as, direction for
implementation.
Tourism Meeting
Staff would like to thank and commend participants who attended the Tourism,
Event and Business Stakeholders’ meeting on November 6th. It was a productive
meeting, and Ms. Masonheimer will be providing follow up and communication.
Initial specific steps discussed included formalized, coordinated marketing;
communication; internal marketing and hospitality training; and events.
TCEQ
Residents will be receiving notification from the City in the next week regarding
a TCEQ violation related to the City’s drinking water. The violation is not for a
water quality issue, it is because the City failed to turn in the First Quarter
disinfection report on the required date. This is an issue staff for which takes
full responsibility. This issue has been formally addressed with all responsible
parties.
Library Opening
Ahead of the Grand re-Opening on December 4th, please stop by the Library on
or after November 12th to review the completed project. Staff has done a great
job moving and restocking Library materials, and the contractor is now 100%
complete. Landscaping is being done, outside the general contractor’s scope,
and should be underway and complete in the next month. Staff did approve
some needed repairs to the two older roof top a/c units outside the
Foundation’s scope of work.
Young Eagles
Although Council approved the event, staff wanted to take the opportunity to
encourage anyone with young folks in the house to come to the Airport on
November 15th, weather permitting, to enjoy the delights of general aviation.
Pilots will be providing rides to kids between the ages of 8 to 18. It is a very
popular event with always excellent reviews.
