Vote: Ayes: Troy Hickman Kent Steward Ron Mellick 4. CITIZEN COMMENTS: There were no comments. 5. CONSENT AGENDA: Chairperson Hickman presented the following proposed mayoral appointments: Sister Cities Advisory Board Max Maximov – three-year term to expire January 1, 2016 Hays Convention & Visitors Bureau Advisory Committee Connie Schmidt – unexpired term to expire December 1, 2013 The proposed appointments will be presented for approval at the October 11, 2012 City Commission meeting. NEW BUSINESS 6. 2012 STREET MAINTENANCE PROGRAM UPDATE: I. D. Creech, Director of Public Works, updated the Commissioners on the 2012 Street Maintenance Program. Approximately $1,260,000 has been spent on polypatch, stripe and seal, chip and seal, and brick, curb and gutter repair. 7. TERMINATION OF HAYS PARTICIPATION IN PUBLIC WHOLESALE WATER SUPPLY DISTRICT #15: Public Wholesale Water Supply District #15 was formed in the 1990’s by the cities of Hays and Russell to be a vehicle to bring water to Hays and Russell from the R-9 Ranch. To date, that has not materialized. The District has no assets, no holdings of any kind; it has a board of directors. There is one item of record identified with the District, that being an application, through the District on behalf of the cities of Hays and Russell, for water rights in Wilson Lake should they become available. It is the only 2 application on file and it is highly unlikely that water from Wilson Lake will be made available to cities. The City could put in an application for water rights in the City of Hays’ name if the Commission should desire to do so. Terminating the City’s participation in the Water Supply District does not change the ownership of the R-9 Ranch; Hays owns 82% of the Ranch and Russell owns 18%. Hays manages the Ranch with input from Russell; that will not change. Kent Steward moved, Ron Mellick seconded, that Ordinance No. 3856, being an ordinance providing for the withdrawal by the City of Hays, Kansas, from Public Wholesale Water Supply District No. 15, be approved. Commissioner Mellick stated that this is not something the City wants to do; however if Russell has lost confidence in Hays, it has become necessary to dissolve the partnership. The District could be reinstated at some point in the future if both parties desire to do so. Russell has an urgent need for water now and Hays is looking long-term. When the District was formed, both cities had urgent needs, but the City of Hays, through conservation and well rehabilitation activities, has pushed our needs to long term. Vote: Ayes: Troy Hickman Kent Steward Ron Mellick 8. CITY OF HAYS WATER WATCH UPDATE: City Manager Toby Dougherty updated the Commissioners on the conditions of the Big Creek Wellfield and the Smoky Wellfield. The watch was triggered by low levels on three wells in the Big Creek Wellfield six weeks ago, followed by low levels in the monitoring well in the Smoky Wellfield two weeks later. Residents were asked to cut back on outside watering and a decline in water usage was noticed. There has been some small recharge in the Big Creek Wellfield, but none in the Smoky Wellfield. The water watch is going to continue and may continue throughout the winter months. The area needs lots of rain for the aquifers to soak up and recharge. 9. PROGRESS REPORT: Assistant City Manager Paul Briseno reported on various city-related activities and events that have occurred in the past month. 3 10. REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER: The City Manager had no additional items to report on. 11. COMMISSION INQUIRIES AND COMMENTS: Commissioner Steward thanked the Public Works staff for their work on city streets. Massive improvements have been made.

NARRATIVE: The Downtown Hays Development Corporation presented a request for financial support of the proposed pavilion project September 20th. The project is estimated to cost $576,534, which includes facility construction and site improvements. Specifically, their request from the City is not to exceed $276,534. Broken down, this request equates to a $100,000 cash contribution and $176,534 in match noncash (site improvements). DHDC will raise the remaining funds necessary for the project. They have also requested the City provide project oversight. The expected ongoing cost incurred by the Parks Department for operations would be $6,000, and the maintenance fund for future improvements would be $3,000 to $5,000. It is requested that, if approved, the total capital cost of $276,534 be funded with City Commission Financial Policy Projects. PERSON/STAFF MEMBER(S) MAKING PRESENTATION: Paul Briseno, Assistant City Manager ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Approve an amount not to exceed $276,534 to partially fund the construction of a Downtown Pavilion as presented by the DHDC to be paid out of the City Commission Financial Policy Projects. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION(S): N/A ATTACHMENTS: Staff Memo DHDC Presentation 13 Commission Work Session Agenda Memo From: Paul Briseno, Assistant City Manager Work Session: October, 4 2012 Subject: DHDC Pavilion Operating Costs Person(s) Responsible: Toby Dougherty, City Manager Paul Briseno, Assistant City Manager Summary The City Commission requested an estimate of annual operating expenditures for the Downtown Hays Development District proposed pavilion. Based on the design given, staff projected costs at $6,000. This item is brought forward to give greater insight into potential ongoing operational costs and respond to DHDC's funding/participation request. Staff asks the City Commission to give further guidance. Background th At the September 20 Work Session the City Commission asked staff to calculate annual operating costs for the Downtown Hays Development Corporation proposed pavilion project. DHDC estimates the project to cost $576,534, which includes facility construction and site improvements. Specifically, their request from the City is not to exceed $276,534. Broken down, this request equates to a $100,000 cash contribution and $176,534 in match noncash (site improvements). DHDC will raise the remaining funds necessary for the project. The September 20th DHDC presentation outlining the project and costs are attached to this memo. Discussion Based on DHDC’s proposal staff has conservatively estimated the following reoccurring costs: Pavilion Project Annual Operational Costs $ $ $ $ $ 1,800 2,600 750 850 6,000 Electricity - Pavilion & Restroom Cleaning 1.5 Hrs Per Occurrence Cleaning Supplies Mow, Fuel, Trimming, 20 weeks Total Annual Operational Costs 14 Staff would recommend $3,000 to $5,000 be placed in a replacement fund for future facility maintenance costs/depreciation. There is no calculation for additional advertising of the farmers market or potential event scheduling by City staff. The Parks Department envisions a similar process currently used to reserve shelters. It’s assumed a fee will be charged for utilization of this facility to recoup some costs. DHDC has committed ongoing marketing of the facility through its endeavors. Financial Consideration If approved the expected ongoing cost incurred by the Parks Department for operations would be $6,000, and the maintenance fund for future improvements would be $3,000 to $5,000. The requested total capital cost of $276,534 would be funded with City Commission Financial Policy Projects. Options 1. Approve an amount not to exceed $276,534 to partially fund the construction of a Downtown Pavilion as presented by the DHDC to be paid out of the City Commission Financial Policy Projects. 2. Direct Staff to gather additional information. 3. Do nothing. Recomendation Staff recommends the City Commission give guidance for further participation of this project financially as well as the management of it.

NARRATIVE: The owner of Lot 2, Block 9 of the Golden Belt 8th Addition has submitted a replat of the property for consideration.

Staff, as well as the Planning Commission, recommends approval of the final plat as submitted. PERSON/STAFF MEMBER(S) MAKING PRESENTATION: Paul Briseno, Assistant City Manager ID Creech, Director, Public Works ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Staff, as well as the Planning Commission, recommends approving this plat as submitted. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION(S): By a unanimous vote of 6-0, the Planning Commission recommends approving this final plat as submitted. ATTACHMENTS: Staff Memo Resolution No. 2012-013 Final Plat Planning Commission Minutes 31 Commission Work Session Agenda Memo From: Jesse Rohr, PIE Superintendent Work Session: October 4, 2012 Subject: Golden Belt 8th Addition Replat (Lot 2, Block 9) Person(s) Responsible: Toby Dougherty, City Manager I.D. Creech, Director of Public Works Summary The owner of Lot 2, Block 9 of the Golden Belt 8th Addition has submitted a replat of the property for consideration. The proposed plat will contain 24 residential lots, and is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and Future Development Map while also complying with the City’s Subdivision and Zoning regulations. Staff, as well as the Planning Commission, recommends approval of the final plat as submitted. Background This property was originally platted in 1983. It was platted as one lot (440’ x 450’) and is now being split into residential sized lots. The original intention for this lot was for commercial development of the area. However, as the land around developed, it became primarily residential, with a large portion of it being two-family or multi-family dwellings. Discussion The owner of Lot 2, Block 9 of the Golden Belt 8th Addition has submitted a replat of the property for consideration. The plat contains 24 residential lots. There is a 30’ wide platted access/utility easement running north/south through the middle of the property. This will provide access to the interior lots within the block and will remain a private drive similar to some other recent in-fill developments in Hays over the past couple of years. While the developer did consider a 60’ wide dedicated right-of-way, the size of the block was just not accommodating to such a wide right-of-way. Several configurations were looked at before this one was settled on. There are some utilities required as development occurs. The developer will be required to establish the proper sanitary sewer, water, and storm water utilities necessary for the development. It is unknown at this time if the developer will special asses the costs or will pay for them up front in full. Staff has reviewed the proposed plat which has also been reviewed by the Utility Advisory Committee. All proper easements are in place. 32 On August 20, 2012 the final plat was reviewed and approved (6-0 vote) by the Hays Area Planning Commission. All parties recommend approval of the submitted plat. Legal Consideration There are no known legal obstacles to the proposed action. Financial Consideration This action has no immediate financial effect, unless during the construction phase over-sizing of infrastructure (water and sanitary sewer) is required, in which case the City of Hays will pay for the over-sizing per the current Development Policy. Upon initial review, it is unlikely any oversizing will be necessary. Options Options include the following: Approve the plat as submitted Recommend changes to the plat Do not approve the plat Recommendation Staff, as well as the Planning Commission, recommends approving this plat as submitted. Action Requested Approve the resolution accepting the final plat known as the Replat of Lot 2, Block 9, Golden Belt 8th Addition.

Passed and adopted by the Governing Body of the City of Hays, Kansas, this 11th day of October, 2012. _______________________________ Troy Hickman - Mayor ATTEST: BY_____________________________ Doris Wing - City Clerk 34 DRAFT MINUTES HAYS AREA PLANNING COMMISSION CITY HALL IN COMMISSION CHAMBERS AUGUST 20, 2012 MINUTES 6:30 P.M. 1. CALL TO ORDER: The Hays Area Planning Commission met in regular session Monday, August 20, 2012 at 6:30 p.m. in Commission Chambers at City Hall. The meeting was called to order by Chairman Larry Gould. Present: Larry Gould Jim Fouts Absent: Tom Denning Paul Phillips Pam Rein Jake Glover Emery Jennings Lou Caplan Terry Claycamp City Staff: Jesse Rohr, Superintendent of Planning, Inspection and Enforcement and Administrative Secretary Linda K. Bixenman. 2. MINUTES: The minutes from the July 16, 2012 meeting were approved by consensus. 3. CITIZEN COMMENTS: - None. 4. CITY/COUNTY COMMISSION ACTION & PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT ISSUE UPDATES: Jesse Rohr presented the updates. 6. CONSIDER FINAL PLAT OF REPLAT OF LOT 2, BLOCK 9, GOLDEN BELT 8TH ADDITION: Jesse Rohr showed the location of the above property on the overhead. Harvey Ruder, engineer, presented the application request on behalf of the owner Laverne Schumacher, to consider the final plat of the above. The proposed development would be for two-family dwelling units. It is currently zoned “C-O” Central Business and Office District. The replat of lot 2 would consist of 24 residential lots north of the Oak Park Medical Center with a 30 foot access and utility easement through the middle. There would be a 24 foot paved private street in the middle with water and sewer addition. There is an ample turning radius at the end of the access (Judith Drive) approved by the fire department. This layout of the plat would be comparable to the development of the area where the duplexes were built at 13th and Canterbury and the Paul-Wertenberger Development near the Country Club area. The plans for the development are for two-family dwelling units. Paul Phillips asked if the east lots face Harvest Road, and the far west lots face Anthony Dr and the 1 35 interior lots face Judith Drive. He asked if the utilities would come in from 17th Street. It was answered that was correct. Jesse Rohr stated that the Utility Advisory Committee has no opposition to the replat. Larry Gould asked if it had come up for discussion by the City for having the alleys to maintain; he thought the City discouraged alleys because of the additional maintenance. Jesse Rohr answered that alleys are an option in the development policy; although it has not been seen in several years. Due to the increase in development costs, the developer has retained the extra 20 feet for the lots. Jack Glover asked if the lots back up against each other. It was answered that they would back up against each other. He asked if there was ample green space. Jesse Rohr answered that there was a park (Kiwanis Park) and a drainage dedication not for development nearby. Emery Jennings asked if there was water drainage on one corner. Jesse Rohr answered that the development would have to meet the stormwater requirements. Jim Fouts asked if the Oak Park Medical Center were aware of this potential development. The center was designed to add two legs to the complex when needed. Jesse Rohr answered that the Oak Park Medical Center had sold off their ownership of the parcel of land to the north. Paul Phillips asked what process they plan to take since the property is zoned “CO” and the proposed zoning is “R-3” Two Family Dwelling District. Jesse Rohr answered they can either go before the Hays Area Board of Zoning to request a special use permit for two-family dwellings or they can go through the rezoning process or it could develop as commercial as it stands. Jesse Rohr noted that the current zoning on adjacent properties were two-family dwelling units to the west, single family to the north and east and commercial to the south. This is ideal for a mixed use area. Larry Gould entertained a motion. There was a motion by Pam Rein and a second by Paul Phillips for their recommendation to the City Commission to approve the final plat of replat of Lot 2, Block 9, Golden Belt 8th Addition.

ACTION REQUESTED: Approve the pre-annexation agreement which would allow the owners of 2807 Hwy 183 Alt. to connect one commercial structure to the City sanitary sewer system. NARRATIVE: The City of Hays Development Policy allows connection to one or both utilities (water or sanitary sewer) when the subject property lies outside the City Limits, as long as the parties involved first agree to a pre-annexation agreement. The owner of 2807 Hwy 183 Alt. (map attached) has requested a sanitary sewer connection for an existing commercial structure on the property. The owner has agreed to the terms of the standard pre-annexation agreement. If approved, the owner will pay the current outside rate of $36.10 per month for sanitary sewer service, or will have their well water metered for the purpose of establishing the monthly sewer rate. Staff, including Public Works and Utilities, recommends approving the agreement allowing the property owner to connect to City of Hays sanitary sewer. PERSON/STAFF MEMBER(S) MAKING PRESENTATION: Paul Briseno, Assistant City Manager ID Creech, Director, Public Works ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: Staff, including Public Works and Utilities, recommends approving the agreement allowing the property owner to connect to City of Hays sanitary sewer.

Person(s) Responsible: Toby Dougherty, City Manager I.D. Creech, Director of Public Works Summary The City of Hays Development Policy allows connection to one or both utilities (water or sanitary sewer) when the subject property lies outside the City Limits, as long as the parties involved first agree to a pre-annexation agreement. The owner of 2807 Hwy 183 Alt. (map attached) has requested a sanitary sewer connection for an existing commercial structure on the property. The owner has agreed to the terms of the standard preannexation agreement. If approved, the owner will pay the current outside rate of $36.10 per month for sanitary sewer service, or will have their well water metered for the purpose of establishing the monthly sewer rate. Staff, including Public Works and Utilities, recommends approving the agreement allowing the property owner to connect to City of Hays sanitary sewer. Background The City of Hays Development Policy allows connection to one or both utilities (water or sanitary sewer) when the subject property lies outside the City Limits, as long as the parties involved first agree to a pre-annexation agreement. Discussion The owner of 2807 Hwy 183 Alt. has requested a sanitary sewer connection for an existing commercial structure on the property. The City sewer main does lie along the east side of HWY 183 Alt., making it available for connection. There is currently a septic system on the property, however Ellis Co. environmental regulations restrict the use of septic systems when a public sewer is readily available. Also, a minimum of 2 acres is required for a septic system, and the subject property is only comprised of 1.1 acres. The existing septic system is essentially “grandfathered”. The new owners of the property have consulted with Dale Wing from the Ellis Co. Environmental Office and he strongly recommended to them to pursue connection to the public sewer system. The owners have agreed to the terms of the standard 40 pre-annexation agreement as detailed on Pg. 14 of the Development Policy Infrastructure Guidelines for New Development, last revised October 8, 2009. (See excerpt below) 14) Annexation: a. An individual or business located outside the city limits may submit a written application to the Planning, Inspection, Enforcement Superintendent asking for permission to connect a legally recorded lot or tract to a sanitary sewer line or water main. b. The requesting individual or business must file a Petition for Annexation or agree to enter into a Pre-annexation Agreement, which either annexes the property to be served with sanitary sewer and/or water service immediately or provides for the point in time when annexation will take place. The Petition for Annexation or Preannexation Agreement must be approved by the City Commission. Once a property is connected to both public water and sewer services and/or property is contiguous with the City Limit on at least 3 sides, the City will consider annexing the property. c. The requesting individual or business must agree to comply with all zoning regulations, subdivision regulations and building codes, building permits, building inspections, and building and inspection fees now in force or as may be amended in the City of Hays for all improvements commenced after annexation or adoption of the Pre-annexation Agreement. d. The requesting individual or business must agree to participate in any Special Assessment District, which might be formed for the purpose of paving roads/street, and or extending public water mains or sanitary sewer lines to the property. e. The above conditions, as well as any conditions, which might be imposed by the City Commission at the time of application, shall apply to subsequent owners of the property for which the request is being made. f. Water and sewer service charges, as provided through ordinance and as amended from time to time, shall be assessed against properties, that connect to the public utility infrastructure. g. A non-refundable fee of $200.00 shall be collected for the purpose of administrating each application for connection. Legal Consideration There are no known legal obstacles to proceeding as recommended by City Staff. Financial Consideration If approved, the owner will pay the current outside rate of $36.10 per month for sanitary sewer service or will have their well water metered for the purpose of establishing the monthly sewer rate. 41 Options Options include the following: Approve the pre-annexation agreement and allow the property owner to connect to the City sanitary sewer service.

D. Creech Bob Johnson Chris Springer Mike Konz Gary Wentling Errol Wuertz 1.) Call to order 2.) Approval of August 6, 2012 Minutes - Approved 3.) Discuss and Review Minimum Standards. Some written comments to the proposed written standards were made by Dan Stecklein. Bob Johnson waiting for comments by other members and the FBO. 4.) Discuss Flight School - Update. Wichita Area Vo-Tech is still planning to meet with Hays Vo-Tech and Advisory Committee concerning a partnership between Wichita and Hays. Meeting date was pushed out due to schedule conflicts. 5.) Discuss Airport Maintenance. Painting requirements on taxiways is complete. All paint markings on airport should pass FAA inspections. Damage to taxiways due to snow removal last winter has been repaired. Pot holes around airport have been repaired. 6.) Discuss Snow Plan. Snow removal on main runway and connecting taxiways are main priority. All other snow removal is dependent on available equipment and snow removal requirements throughout the city. If someone needs to get their hangar cleared for mission critical business the city will try to accommodate them it they have the resources. Part of airport plan is to commit money for a needed snow blower to move cleared snow further away form runway and taxiways - beyond the lights. 7.) Discuss Tenant Meeting scheduled for October. A meeting is planned for October 16 for airport tenants. There will be a BBQ for attendees and Bob Johnson will have open discussions on minimum standards, rules and regulations, airport improvements, runway project, terminal renovation, snow plan and concerns that may be brought up at the meeting. The fire depart will also schedule annual hangar inspections at that time. 63 8.) Discuss Terminal Expansion. A terminal expansion plan has been discussed with the FAA. A larger terminal is necessary for plans to expand the airport operations. 9.) Discuss Big Hangar. Bob Johnson has been keeping data on the type of aircraft landing at Hays in an effort to determine the financial feasibility of building a big hangar. The big hangar would generate income from transient aircraft paying to park inside hangar. Based on bad weather alone, an estimate of up to $2,000 per month could be realized from sheltering transient airplanes. Actual numbers could be higher because many aircraft owners want their aircraft hangared whenever possible, not just in bad weather. The city is also considering a big hangar with office facilities to accommodate certain users. 10.) Discuss Add-on items. Dan Stecklein - Suggested that the city not make any commitments to remove snow from tenants hangar approaches. The city makes that a low priority, will only clear snow within 3 feet of hangar door and makes it hard for hangar owners and the FBO to decide whether to invest in snow removal equipment. If it was left to the owners to remove snow on their hangar approaches it would save tax money and enable the FBO to make a decision if it would be worth offering snow clearing services to tenants. A hangar owner could also decide if they want to invest in equipment to remove their own snow or have FBO remove it. 11.) Schedule Next Meeting. October 1, 2012. 6:30 PM. 12.) Adjourn. Respectfully submitted, Errol Wuertz 64 Fort Hays Municipal Golf Course Advisory Board Meeting September 10, 2012 In Attendance: Bill Bieker, President Karen Schueler, Secretary Doug Huston Ron Speier Jim Krob Ron Augustine, Men’s Association Janet Schmidt, Ladies Association Jeff Boyle, Director, Parks Department Travis Haines, Parks Superintendent (absent) Mike Cure, Golf Course Superintendent Bob Wilhelm, Historical Society (absent) Rich Guffey, ProShop Manager, Tournament Chair (absent) Guest: Dan McMillan, FHGC member.

Another item brought up in a previous meeting regarding improving the look of the concrete thing on #18; Jeff discussed this further with Nick Nierenberger and others, and decided that planters on that would not be a good idea, but that painting it the color of the blocks would be OK. 5. New Business: There was no new business. 6. Pro-Shop report: Rich Guffey was not presen, but provided the following: Rounds Played August 2012 August 2011 August 2010 3665 3457 3584 Rounds Played July 2012 July 2011 July 2010 3110 3515 3936 Year‐to‐Date Rounds Played Green Fees Total Green Fees for Year $ 15,324.00 $ 16,720.00 $ 98,458.00 Year‐to‐Date Rounds Played 14,570 14,410 15,020 Green Fees Total Green Fees for Year 65 2 Rounds Played January, 2012 February, 2012 February 2011 March 2012 March 2011 March 2010 April 2012 May 2012 May 2011 May 2010 June 2012 June 2011 June 2012 23 474 0 2139 1313 984 2564 3203 3279 3430 2980 3545 3583 Year‐to‐Date Rounds Played Green Fees Total Green Fees for Year $ 11,648 $ 15,313 $ 17,221 $ 15,152 $14,717 #14,927 Rich’s report indicated that the final day of Senior golf is October 23rd at 3:00 pm, with a steak dinner to follow. The FH Ladies Golf Association voted at their August 28th meeting, to donate $500 to help pour a concrete walk on the new driving range tee box, on which to put tee mats. There was some discussion by the Board on other items that the Ladies Association had discussed, including some kind of shelter, like a gazebo, by #3 tee box. Karen Schueler will visit with Bob Wilhelm on what would or would not be approved by the historical society. 7. Tournament report: The Ellis County Challenge is set for October 13th and 14th at Smoky Hill Country Club. This was moved from Ellis Country Club, due to the deterioration of those fairways. 8. Course report: Mike’s monthly report indicated they are working on over seeding and sodding. #4, 5 and 6 may eventually need a temporary green for a while, to allow for growth of seed and grass. #1 green continues to accumulate water, right in front. Mike suggested a sand trap be put there. Tees, fringes and fairways have all been aerified. The crew has been very busy with several projects. The back nine will likely be closed for several weeks. Carts may be allowed on the fairways on the front, within a few days. Several aerifications are needed to improve the root layer around the edges of greens, where anaerobic bacteria have resulted in a black layer. This is due to the very high summer temperatures, little natural rainfall, and lots of affluent water settling there. 9. Parks Department update: Jeff Boyle: nothing to add that has not already been discussed. 10. Women’s Association report: Janet Schmidt is the newly elected president of the FH Ladies Golf Association. She reported that the final evening of Ladies Golf on August 28th included a 9-hole tournament and dinner. 11. Men’s Association report: Ron Augustine reported that this Wednesday is the last Men’s Nite, and the FH Men’s Association tournament is this coming weekend. They will have tee times on Saturday, and the course closed part of the day on Sunday for a shotgun start. Add-ons: Ron Speier initiated discussion on the meaning of Advisory Board vs. Advisory Committee. The key term being “advisory”. This is not a governing board. Adjourned: 6:35 pm.
