Consider and act upon an ordinance, by record vote of the City Council of the City of Midlothian,
Texas, levying and assessing municipal ad valorem taxes for the City of Midlothian, for the fiscal year
2011-2012, at $0.272313 for Maintenance and Operations and $0.377687 for Interest and Sinking
Funds, for a total of sixty-five ($0.65), specifically for the purpose for which said taxes may be
expended and directing the assessment and collection thereof; repealing conflicting Ordinances and
Resolutions; including a severability clause and establishing an effective date.
The proposed ordinance levies the FY 2011-2012 ad valorem tax rates necessary to fund the
maintenance and operations (M&O) of the City and to pay principal and interest for the redemption of
bonds (Interest & Sinking - I&S).
The total assessed ad valorem tax rate, as established by this ordinance, will be $0.65. This rate
represents no change from the current fiscal year’s overall tax rate of $0.65. The $0.65 tax rate is
apportioned as follows:
Maintenance & Operations (M&O): $0.272313 (a decrease of $0.001593 from the current fiscal year)
Interest & Sinking (I&S):
$0.377687 (an increase of $0.001593 over the current fiscal year)
SPECIAL CONSIDERATION: N/A
An ad valorem tax rate of $0.65 (M&O: $0.272313; I&S $0.377687) will generate $5,325,541 for

Manager at Risk Services for Water Treatment Plant No. 2 with Garney Companies, Inc. to
procure equipment from Siemens Water Technologies Corporation for a membrane system in a
total amount not to exceed $2,337,120.
On May 25, 2010, Council approved an agreement for Construction Manager at Risk services for
Water Treatment Plant No. 2 with Garney Companies, Inc. (Garney) out of Kansas City,
Missouri and authorized the commencement of pre-construction and procurement services
(Agenda Item 2010-170). The pre-construction services include project management, time
management, cost management and quality management/design review. The procurement
services include the assembly of bid packages, advertisement of bids, pre-bid conferences,
distribution of addendums, and bid openings.
On October 20, 2010, competitive sealed proposals were received by Garney for the supply of a
membrane system for the plant. These proposals were evaluated by City staff, Garney and our
project consultant team and out of the two (2) proposals received, Siemens Water Technologies
(Siemens) was the preferred supplier.
On January 11, 2011, Council approved Amendment No. One to the Garney Companies
agreement for the procurement of shop drawings from Siemens, for a membrane system in a total
amount not to exceed $162,000 (Agenda Item 2011-06).
Due to the lead time involved in the manufacturing of the membrane system and in order to remain
on schedule and ensure the current membrane pricing, Garney needs to authorize Siemens to begin
this work. The total amended contract amount of $2,684,120 (which includes the Amendment No.
One amount of $185,000) is included in the total price bid by Siemens ($2,329,000) and is also
part of the overall construction service fee provided by Garney ($1,455,000). Please refer to the
attached Water Treatment Plant No. 2- Phase II Construction Cost Summary sheet for detailed
information.
On Monday, July 11, 2011 this item was presented before the City Council Utility Subcommittee

AGENDA CAPTION:
Consider and act upon an agreement for Construction Manager at Risk services for Water
Treatment Plant No. 2 with Garney Companies, Inc. out of Kansas City, Missouri and authorize
the commencement of pre-construction and procurement services in an amount not to exceed
$185,000.
Over the past five years, the City has steadily moved forward on the plans for Water Treatment
Plant No. 2. The design and construction of this plant has been divided into a number of different
phases. Phase I was the design and construction of the plant’s transmission main, three million
gallon (3 MG) clearwell, and high service pump station (HSPS). At this time, the transmission
main and clearwell are substantially complete and the HSPS is approximately 60 percent
complete. Phase II is the design and construction of the actual water treatment plant and
associated appurtenances. The design has progressed to the point that the plans are almost 30
percent complete. Based on this, it is now time to secure construction manager at risk (CMAR)
services and authorize the commencement of both pre-construction and procurement services.
The pre-construction services include project management, time management, cost management
and quality management/design review. The procurement services include the assembly of bid
packages, advertisement of bids, pre-bid conferences, distribution of addendums, and bid
openings. A detailed explanation of these two services is included as Attachment 3.
A request for proposals for CMAR services for the construction of Water Treatment Plant No. 2
was issued in February 2010. On Wednesday, February 24, 2010, a mandatory pre-proposal
conference was held to review the scope of the project and proposal process, and answer any
questions from contractors. At this meeting, eight (8) prospective contractors were in attendance.
On Friday, March 5, 2010, the City received proposals for construction manager at risk services
from five (5) qualified contractors. Through a City staff team of six (6) members and various
consultant teams, each of the 5 proposals were reviewed and scored based on (1) experience/past
performance; (2) experience and qualifications; (3) experience as a construction manager at risk;
(4) ability to meet proposed time for construction; (5) financial management; and other factors
(e.g., quality of work, SMWBE participation, safety, claims experience, litigation history, and
past experience with the City). Once the scores under these criteria were determined, the
proposed fees and financial factors that were previously submitted in a separate sealed envelope
by each bidder were opened and evaluated. Based on review and assessment of each of the 5
proposals received, there was consensus that Garney Companies, Inc. should be selected to
provide CMAR services for the construction of Water Treatment Plant No. 2.

AGENDA ITEM 2011- 357
AGENDA CAPTION:
Consider and act upon an amendment to the Retail Water Service Area Agreement with Mountain
Peak Special Utility District for the transfer of certain Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN)
areas.
On April 22, 2008, the City Council approved a Retail Water Service Area Agreement with Mountain
Peak Special Utility District (Mt. Peak) for the transfer of certain CCN areas (Agenda Item 2008-165).
As a condition of this agreement, both parties were to jointly submit an application to the Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) requesting approval of this agreement. In addition, the
agreement was only temporary and would expire unless the TCEQ approved the application.
Mt. Peak and the City filed an application with the TCEQ in October of 2008. The TCEQ has reviewed
the agreement and application and has revised and submitted a CCN map to both entities showing the
requested changes. Although Mt. Peak and the City agree with the map for the areas covered by the
agreement, Mt. Peak does not agree with the overall CCN map and therefore, has not signed off on
their concurrence of the new CCN map. Therefore, the application remains incomplete.
Both Mt. Peak and the City are still in agreement with the CCN transfer, to the extent that Mt. Peak
has been serving Cotton Creek Ranch and the adjacent area for several months and the City plans to
serve all of the future development within the 43-acre area (triangle area between Business 287/Main
Street and the 287 Bypass).
The amended agreement removes all prior provisions contained in the previously executed agreement
regarding the necessity for TCEQ approval. The issue regarding the overall CCN map will be
addressed separately and over time by Mt. Peak and the City.

collectively the “Parties,” pursuant to the following considerations:
WHEREAS, the City and Mountain Peak entered into an agreement (“Retail

by Mountain Peak and on June 2, 2008 by the City; and
WHEREAS, as part of this Agreement the City has agreed to transfer
approximately 119 acres of land known as Cotton Creek Ranch PD to Mountain Peak
and Mountain Peak has agreed to grant the City the exclusive right to provide water
service to approximately 43 acres within the Dual Certificated Area along with the
exclusive right to provide water service to 25 acres of land, south of Old Fort Worth
Highway and west of Loop 287 under certain conditions set forth within the Agreement;
and
WHEREAS, paragraph 7 states that the Agreement will expire unless the Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) approves the Agreement on or before
March 1, 2009 (or until such later date on which the TCEQ acts on the application,
provided the application therefore is still pending and the Parties are exercising due
diligence to prosecute it); and
WHEREAS, paragraph 8 states that the transfers and agreements by this
Agreement will be effective upon approval by the TCEQ; and
WHEREAS, the TCEQ has reviewed this Agreement and the applications
submitted by the Parties and has revised and submitted a map depicting the effective
areas to the Parties; and
WHEREAS, the Parties agree that the areas covered by the Agreement have
been accurately depicted on the map submitted by the TCEQ; however, the Parties are
not in agreement with the overall map; and
WHEREAS, the Parties have an agreement (the “Dual Certification Agreement”)

and
WHEREAS, Mountain Peak is currently providing retail water service to all of
Cotton Creek Ranch and certain contiguous lands; and
WHEREAS, the City is ready, willing and able to serve the approximate 43 acres
within the “Dual Certificated Area”; and
WHEREAS, the Parties wish to complete the transfer detailed in the “Agreement”

receipt of the Service Notice, the Proposed Tract will be conclusively presumed to be
acceptable); and (d) to the extent the City has not provided retail water service to any
portion of the Option Area or to any Proposed Tract within five years after the date the
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) approves the application
described in paragraph 7 below, that the last Party executes this Amended Agreement,
the right of the City to provide retail water service in the Option Area as described in this
paragraph 3 expires.
4.

AGENDA CAPTION:
Consider and act upon a Retail Water Service Area Agreement with Mountain Peak Special Utility
District for the transfer of certain Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) areas.
On December 11, 2007, the City Manager received a letter from Metroplex Properties regarding
property located south of Business 287 and north of the 287 Bypass. This property is situated within an
area that is dually certificated, with Midlothian serving all industrial uses and Mountain Peak Special
Utility District (Mt. Peak) serving all other uses. Presently, Midlothian has several large water lines in
close proximity to this property; however, the proposed use is not industrial and Mt. Peak does not
have any water lines in this area. Therefore, Metroplex Properties has requested that the City and Mt.
Peak consider trading a portion of their respective service areas in order to enable this area to develop
in the near future.
On January 24, 2008, City staff presented this information to the Council Utility Subcommittee and
Utility Advisory Board. Per the Subcommittee and Board’s direction, City staff met with Metroplex
Properties and Mt. Peak on February 7, 2008, to try to negotiate an agreement that would allow the
City to serve this property, while at the same time exchanging a certain area of the City’s CCN to Mt.
Peak. The agreement that was negotiated is as follows:
(1) The City will transfer approximately 119 acres of CCN, which includes the Cotton Creek Ranch
Development and area north, up to the U.S. Highway 67 and 287 intersections, to Mt. Peak SUD.
(2) Mt. Peak will transfer approximately 43 acres of area within the dually certificated area located
south of Business 287 and north of the 287 Bypass to the City.
(3) The City is granted the right to serve up to an additional 25 acres of “floating” area located within
the dually certificated area, said area to be limited to one-quarter mile south of Old Forth Worth
Road and west of the 287 Bypass.
(4) If new non-industrial development within the “floating” area does not occur within five (5) years of
the execution of this agreement, the right to serve non-industrial uses in this area will return to Mt.
Peak.
On Tuesday, April 8, 2008, the Mt. Peak Board approved this agreement, with some minor revisions.
These revisions do not compromise the main terms of the agreement.
Although the total acres to be exchanged are not equal, the community as a whole will benefit through
the receipt of commercial property and sales taxes from this area sooner than would otherwise be
possible without this agreement.
Staff will present these items to the Utility Subcommittee and Advisory Board on Monday, April, 21,
2008, for their recommendation to Council.
Per this agreement, each party will pay their respective costs relating to the application to the Texas Commission
on Environmental Quality to transfer these areas. Funding is available in the Utility Fund, Department 38, line
item 210 (outside services).

AGENDA ITEM 2011 - 359
Consider and act upon awarding a month-to-month rental agreement to Documation Business
Technology Integration, for the monthly rental of fifteen multi-purpose copier/scanner/fax and printers
utilizing the U.S. Communities Cooperative Purchasing Program, in the amount of $4,869 monthly.
The current copier/equipment contract is for fourteen multi-purpose copier/scanner/fax/printers with
Documation Business Technology Integration. It is a month-to-month, 5-year lease agreement, with 14
months remaining. The City of Midlothian entered into this agreement in 2007 and it is set to expire in
October, 2012. Documation is proposing a new agreement in which they will replace the existing
machines with new, more technologically advanced equipment in exchange for a five extension
effective October 1, 2011. The new agreement would expire September 30, 2016. Under the proposed
agreement the number of Black and White (B&W) copies and the number of Color copies included at
no charge would be 58,000 and 7,000 per month respectively. The current contract includes 50,000
B&W and zero Color impressions per month. The overage rate for B&W would remain the same at
$.013 per copy, while the overage rate for Color copies would decrease from $.09 to $.08 per copy.
The agreement provides for all service, maintenance requirements and supplies, except for paper and
staples. And the units will continue to be serviced by authorized Ricoh service technicians with up to
date technical support and training.
The City will also be adding one new machine to replace outdated printing equipment located in the
Patrol Division of the Police Department. This is the reason for the increase from fourteen units to
fifteen units under the proposed agreement.
The City currently has four other supplemental contracts for equipment added after the initial contract
with Documation. These units were added as facilities and functions changed over time. These units
are used for the Police Chief Administration area, the NEED Center, the Human Resources payroll
function and the Conference Center.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATION: N/A
The new Documation proposal will continue with the flexibility of a month-to-month rental agreement,
as compared to a traditional lease arrangement with a third party financing company. The new
agreement will result in approximately $6,540 per year savings due primarily to the first 7,000 color
copies per month provided free of charge. Color copies in excess of 7,000 per month will be charged at
$.08 per copy, which is a reduction from $.09 per copy under the current agreement. The current cost
of $.013 for any overage of black and white copies will remain the same as in the current contract;
however the included impressions will increase from 50,000 to 58,000 per month. The annual rental
expense for this equipment will increase to $58,428 from $56,160. However, due to the reduction in
the overage cost for B&W and color copies, the overall cost for this new agreement is estimated
to decrease approximately $6,540 per year compared to the current rental agreement. Funds are
available in various Funds and line items in the FY11-12 budget.

AGENDA CAPTION: Consider and act upon a request to write off aged accounts receivable EMS
ambulance billings older than nine months in accordance with established policy.
This request is to write-off aged EMS ambulance billings older than nine months, due to noncollections and adjustments of Private Insurance provider claims, Medicare/Medicaid claims, and
uninsured balances due from City and Emergency Service District (“ESD”) residents. By policy, these
residents are not billed for amounts in excess of the payments made by their insurance provider. All
In-District write-offs fall into the guidelines established by auditors and Council-approved Agenda
Item 2005-373. Included in the request to write-off aged EMS ambulance billings are non-collectable
out of district billings that are older than 4 years.
Recap of Agenda Item 2005-373: Dr. Mattern, of Intermedix reviewed fee structures and billing
methodology. Conclusion: consensus that Intermedix would bill insurance companies for reasonable
and customary charges; that co-pay and deductibles would be waived for patients within the
Emergency Service District and those patients would not be billed for anything beyond their insurance
providers’ payment; and that uninsured patients within the ESD would not be billed for service.
This is a balance sheet entry; therefore current year revenues are not affected. These write-offs are for
balances that are open from May 2004 - December 2010 for in-district residents.
