NEW BUSINESS TAX EXEMPTION - MCGINTY PUBLIC HEARING AND TAX EXEMPTION REQUEST - MCGINTY MACHINE COMPANY, INC. (District I) Allen Bell Financial Projects Director reviewed the Item. Agenda Item No. 98-721. McGinty Machine Company, Inc. has requested an Economic Development Tax Exemption in conjunction with an expansion of their plant, located at 222 North Hydraulic in central Wichita. McGinty Machine has operated as a manufacturer of precision machined parts for the aircraft industry, and for the Department of Defense for fifty years. McGinty has undertaken various expansion projects, sustaining continuous growth. In 1993, McGinty received approval for a five- year 100% tax abatement on an expansion project in the amount of $1,651,650 in personal property and $450,000 in real property. The 1993 expansion project created approximately 14 new jobs in central Wichita. McGinty manufactures highly sophisticated machine parts for the aerospace industry. Customers include Raytheon, Boeing, Learjet, Cessna, NASA, the U.S. Department of Defense, and others. McGinty currently has over 50 employees and expects to add at least 16 to 20 new employees over the next five years. The new $6,073,000 expansion project will consist of the construction of a 10,000 square-foots office building addition and a 25,000 square foot manufacturing/warehouse facility addition. McGinty will also purchase a variety of sophisticated precision manufacturing equipment. Under the City's Business Incentives Policy, McGinty is eligible for the following: TAX EXEMPTION ELIGIBILITY ELIGIBLE % INCENTIVE EXPLANATION 31.00% New Job Creation: McGinty presently employs 50+ full-time employees at its facilities and expects to hire 16 additional employees within 5 years after starting the project. 46.00% Capital Improvements: McGinty will invest approximately $6,900,000 in the construction of a building addition and the purchase of additional personal property. 77.00% Total Business Incentives 50.00% TOTAL ELIGIBLE FOR BUSINESS INCENTIVES (Maximum allowed is 50%) 50.00% Export Premium McGinty exports 100.0% of its product outside the State of Kansas 50.00% TOTAL ELIGIBLE FOR EXPORT PREMIUM (Maxim allowed is 50%) 100.00% TOTAL EXEMPTION ALLOWED UNDER BUSINESS INCENTIVE POLICY McGinty is eligible for a 100% tax exemption for five years on real and personal property and a 50% exemption on real property for a second five years. A notice of public hearing has been published. McGinty will maintain a City of Wichita approved EEO/AA Plan for the full term of the Tax Exemption. The estimated first year taxes on McGinty's proposed $6,073,000 project under the 1997 mill levy on property within the Wichita City limits would be $142,974. The estimated taxes exempted with a 100% exemption would be $142,974. Wichita State University Center for Economic Development and Business Research Cost-Benefit Analysis indicates a ratio of 1.80 for the City of Wichita; 1.65 for Sedgwick County; 1.53 for USD 259 and 5.60 for the State of Kansas of benefits to costs with a 100% percent exemption for McGinty. McGinty paid $8,279 in existing real and personal property taxes in 1997 and will continue to pay taxes on the existing property. The existing building and personal property will stay on the property tax rolls. The tax exemption will be shared among the taxing entities as follows: City - $41,605; County/State - $42,177; and USD 259 - $59,048. *Council Member Ferris present.

IRB - YMCA PUBLIC HEARING AND ISSUANCE OF INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BONDS - YMCA. (Districts I & IV) Allen Bell Financial Projects Director reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 98-722. On June 23, 1998 the City Council approved the issuance of a Letter of Intent for Industrial Revenue Bonds in an amount not-to-exceed $8 million to the Wichita YMCA. The bond proceeds will be used to construct, equip a new YMCA South Branch facility and renovate Camp Hyde. On July 28, 1998 City Council amended the original Letter of Intent to include facade improvements at the Central Branch YMCA and cover additional costs at the South Branch YMCA. The amended Letter of Intent amount is not to exceed $9 million. The proposed new 60,000 sq. ft. South Branch YMCA will serve over 20,000 members in South Wichita, 40% of which have an annual income of under $25,000. The facility will include gymnasiums, a recreational and therapeutic pool, an indoor track, a wellness center, nursery, youth center and a meeting room for the community. A Child Development Center will provide 125 children with affordable, all-day child care. Part two of the project will be renovation and major construction improvements to Camp Hyde, located on 124 acres near Viola, Kansas. SOURCES AND USES OF FUNDS Uses: Construction Costs: South Branch YMCA $7,500,000 Camp Hyde 1,250,000 Central Branch YMCA 250,000 Issuance Costs: 116,393 Total Construction Costs: $9,116,393 Sources: Bond Proceeds $9,000,000 Other funds of the YMCA 116,393 Total Funding: $9,116,393 The bonds will be issued as tax-exempt “qualified 501(c)(3) bonds” under the provisions of the federal tax code, which allows not-for-profit organizations, such as the YMCA, finance its facilities at lower interest rates by using such bonds. As a condition for issuing tax-exempt bonds for non-governmental entities, the federal tax code requires that the governmental issuer of the bonds (the City) hold a public hearing on the issuance of the bonds, known as a TEFRA Hearing after the congressional act that gave rise to the requirement. In accordance with this law, the YMCA published a notice of the public hearing in the City’s official newspaper 14 days prior to the date of the hearing. The bonds will be secured by a NationsBank letter of credit and will be privately placed by NationsBank with financial institutions. The firm of Hinkle, Eberhart and Elkouri, L.L.C. is bond counsel in the transaction. Wichita YMCA has a current approved EEO/AA Plan on file with the City’s Human Resources Department. Wichita YMCA agrees to pay all costs of issuing the bonds and agrees to pay the City's $2,500 annual IRB administrative fee for the term of the bonds. Wichita YMCA will not request ad valorem property tax abatement. The YMCA anticipates the property will be exempt from property taxes with respect to use of the property by a 501 (c)(3) corporation. In accordance with State law, Sedgwick County will approve issuance of the bonds in the increased amount on August 12, 1998. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Gale moved that the Public Hearing be closed and the Ordinance be deferred. Motion -- carried carried 7 to 0. PAVING PETITIONS PETITION TO PAVE BULLINGER - 25TH STREET NORTH TO 120' NORTH OF 26TH STREET NORTH. (District IV) Mike Lindebak City Engineer reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 98-723. The Petition has been signed by 55% (11 of 20) owners representing 81% of the Improvement District Area. CPO Council VI considered the Petition on June 24, 1998. The Council voted 7-0 to defer action so that a neighborhood meeting could be held. Topics discussed were a proposal to extend the paving north to 27th Street North and special efforts to save large trees along the east side of Bullinger. The neighborhood meeting was held on July 16, 1998, at Northridge Friends Church. Although no final decisions were made at the neighborhood meeting, the general consensus was to proceed with the Petition that was submitted to pave Bullinger to approximately 120' north of 26th Street, and to construct the paving in such a manner to save the trees on the east side. An informal show of hands did not indicate there was majority support to pave the remainder of the 2700 block of Bullinger. However, a Petition to pave the entire two-block section was provided to an interested property owner. CPO Council VI reconsidered the Petition on July 29, 1998. The Council voted 6-2 to recommend approval, conditioned on saving the trees along the east side of the street. Bullinger is a sand road that serves a church and group of single family homes. The estimated project cost is $125,000, with $8,000 paid by the City and $117,000 assessed to the Improvement District. The City share is for the intersection construction cost. The proposed method of assessment is the square foot basis. The estimated rate of assessment to individual properties is $00.23 per square foot of ownership.

Agenda Report No. 98-726. The City Council has received public comments and held workshops on the proposed 1999/2000 budgets. On July 28, 1998, the City Council authorized the publication of the hearing notices, and set the maximum mill levy for the 1999 City budgets. 1999 Operating Budget. The proposed 1999 annual operating budget has been published at $288,754,780. Interfund transactions and appropriated fund balances increase this amount to $346,906,534. The inclusion of the expendable trust funds, as required by State Law, is an additional $69,363,094 for a total of $416,269,628. As published, the budget will necessitate a mill levy of 31.225, no change from the levy requirement for the 1998 adopted budget. The General Fund property tax levy is $37,383,792 (including a delinquency allowance) at an estimated 21.232 mills. The levy for the Debt Service Fund is $17,594,962 (including a delinquency allowance) and is estimated at 9.993 mills. Jointly Funded Budgets. The General Fund includes City of Wichita contributions to the jointly funded City-County budgets in the following dollar amounts: City County Revenue Total Flood Control 659,930 659,920 0 1,319,850 Community Health 2,478,460 1,652,300 385,640 4,516,400 MAPD 516,170 516,160 268,260 1,300,590 It is necessary for the City Council to approve joint agreements to continue these functions. The County Commission is expected to likewise approve the County share of these functions. Fee Changes. The 1999 budget proposed budget assumes the following actions with respect to fees: o A water rate of 5% increase will be required in 1999 to fund capital expenditures of the utility. o Late fees in Municipal Court for parking and other miscellaneous fines are proposed to increase. o Increases in golf fees, season passes and cart rentals will be required as part of the financing plan for the new Auburn Hills course. Increases are expected to generate an additional $278,500 per year. o A proposed child care inspection and licensure fee is proposed and under consideration by the Board of Health. An additional $70,000 annually has been included in the budget. 1998 Revised Budget. Some revisions in the 1998 budget are proposed. Increased expenditure authorizations are needed for eleven funds. All revisions have been incorporated into the proposed 1999/2000 budget document as "1998 revised" amounts. 1. The Debt Service Fund (DSF) is increased $4,010,080. Temporary note financing was increased to provide expenditure authority for several capital projects included in the adopted Capital Improvement Program (CIP) but not yet incorporated in the DSF. 2. The Convention and Tourism Fund is being amended $659,140, increasing debt service expenditures for the conference center parking garage and the Century II/Expo Hall energy complex. 3. The Special Alcohol Programs Fund increases expenditure authority $164,180. The increase will make higher than anticipated revenue available for funding programs. 4. The Special Parks and Recreation Fund is increased $76,180. This fund, required by law, provides an annual transfer from private club liquor tax receipts into the City’s General Fund. Resources were greater than anticipated, allowing for a larger amount to be transferred. 5. The Storm Water Utility Fund is increased $2,714,260 to provide a one-time transfer of $1.4 million to capital projects, $210,000 for pump station rehabilitation, an increase of the reserve by $785,000, and approximately $150,000 to absorb increases in both price and frequency of floodway mowing. 6. The Golf Course Fund is amended upward $81,000 to absorb salary improvements and to purchase additional mowing equipment. 7. The Stationery Stores Fund is $491,570 higher to allow the replacement of 2 printers and a copier with a document publisher, as well as an increase in the reserve amount. 8. The Data Center Fund is amended $680,490 to fund initiatives including: developing Internet applications, implementing optical imaging, expanding GIS, extension of the network to remote sites, Y2K solutions, and transitioning to a uniform office automation environment. 9. The Telecommunications Fund is increased $68,620 primarily to increase the reserve for a contingency as implementation of the new phone system begins. 10. The Self-Insurance Fund is increased $4,754,910 to pay for increased health insurance costs and to provide authorization for interfund transfers. 11. The TIF District #2 Trust Fund is amended upward $257,520 to allow purchase of necessary capital outlay, to provide a larger contingency commensurate with the uncertainties associated with the clean-up, and an additional $80,000 for consultant fees (Camp, Dresser, and McKee). Highlights. The Proposed Budget proposes no tax increase; the City's 31.225 mill tax levy will remain the same. The 1999 General Fund budget is balanced with no requirement to draw down reserves. The Public Safety Initiative, which added 112 police officers and other support staff, is fully funded even while absorbing the decline of federal grant funding. Street maintenance is expanded with $1.2 million annual supplemental funding in 1998 and 1999. A new Annexation Services Initiative includes funding for a street maintenance crew and expanded street maintenance, neighborhood clean-up services and support for fire station relocation. Replacement of unsafe playground equipment will be provided through a one-time $1 million appropriation. Contingency appropriations have been included within the Municipal Court and Police department budgets as a safeguard against potential shortcomings in Local Law Enforcement Block Grant (LLEBG) funding. The amounts are $26,970 (1998 Revised), $186,720 (1999 Proposed), and $244,080 (2000 Projected). Publication of the notice of formal hearing on July 31 set the maximum dollars that may be expended in each fund. The City Council may reduce expenditures required (and proposed tax dollars to be levied) but not increase expenditures previously established. Publication requirements of State law for the final (formal) public hearing have been met. Following final Council action on the proposed budget, proper certification will be made of the property taxes to be levied in conformity with State law. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight asked Council support for a dedication of $50,000 to the World Trade Center to be taken from the $300,000 economic development commitment. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to be heard. Melanie Barnes Melanie Barnes, Secretary-Treasurer of the Service Employees Union (SEU), spoke regarding the pension statement on page 343 of the Budget Highlights. Ms. Barnes said the SEU supports the efforts of the WER and P&F Advisory Boards. A petition was circulated and signed by 440 people. The petition read: “We the undersigned employees of the City of Wichita and members of the Wichita Employees Retirement System respectfully request the Wichita City Council to take the following actions: “ ~Insure a full public discussion of the issues by removing any implication of the consolidation of the WER and Police & Fire Trust Funds from the proposed City budget. Proposed changes should be discussed publicly if the proposal to change the ordinance is made. “ ~Provide that public comment and votes on any ordinance changes that would have the effect of consolidating the WER and Police & Fire Trust Funds and/or creating a joint investment committee be taken at a special evening meeting of the City Council so that as many as possible of the affected participants can attend. “ ~Examine existing City ordinances to remove any perceived conflict of interest between the City’s Finance Director and Fund Management. “ ~Change ordinances to insure that elected employee/participant representatives are a majority on any investment committee if one is established.” Craig Spickard Craig Spickard, Chair of the SEU and member of the Labor Management Committee, said all the Boards agree this is the wrong way to go about making any changes to the employees retirement. The paragraph referenced should be removed from the Budget. Kevin Lager Kevin Lager, President of the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), stated that his main concern was the talk of consolidation of the retirement boards. Mr. Lager expressed strong opposition to consolidation of the retirement boards, or of anything that would take away the ability of the boards to decide whether or not the members are eligible for a disability. It is understood that disability eligibility is on the back side and now there is mainly talk of the consolidation of funds for a possible money savings. Mr. Lager said he is not sure he is opposed to saving money on money managers, he is concerned in whether or not there will be a say in the composition of the joint committee. If there is a joint committee, it should be made up of the people already on the retirement boards who have been investing the funds so that those who will receive retirement in the future will have some say in how the money is invested. Chris Cherches City Manager confirmed that there was nothing in the budget that would impact the pensions. Specific action would have to be taken to have any impact on the pensions. Council Member Kamen Council Member Kamen explained that the City Council had previously taken action to ensure there would be no consideration of changes without the Boards involvement. The problems have occurred when there has been a lack of communication. Council Member Ferris Council Member Ferris asked that the $2 golf cart fee increase proposed for 1999 be deleted from consideration. This should be part of the golf pro contract negotiations. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight said he also was in support of the City Manager continuing discussions with Wes Galyon and the WABA. The WABA does much for the community and any misunderstanding can be resolved. Council Member Rogers Council Member Rogers said he hoped the Council would look seriously at evaluating a $35,000 future allocation from the economic development fund for minority business developers. Ray Trail Director of Finance, responding to a question, explained that the Event Coordinator position for the Boat House is in line with information previously submitted to the City Council. This is one position for on-site management of the Boat House. It is hoped revenue from operations will offset the expense. The Event Coordinator position for Century II was added because of increased work load and activity since the start-up of the Hyatt Hotel. Each position is important. The water rate increase is the first increase in four years. At one point, there was a projection for a rate increase but, because of better performance of the Water Utility, the increase was not required. The increase proposed in water and sewer rates is driven by demands on the Utility either from compliance issues or expansion. Council Member Kamen Council Member Kamen asked that there be subsequent communication to the City Council with information regarding what the $50,000 allocation to the World Trade Center was used for and the results obtained. Motion -- Knight moved that the Public Hearing be closed; the 1999 Budget be approved subject to the allocation of $50,000 from the Economic Development commitment being dedicated to the World Trade Center, and removal of the $2.00 Golf Cart Fee Increase; that the Budget Ordinance be adopted; the 1998 budget amendments for the following funds: Debt Service, Convention and Tourism, Special Alcohol Programs, Special Parks and Recreation, Storm Water Utility, Golf Course, Stationery Stores, Data Center, Telecommunications, Self- Insurance and TIF District #2 (North Industrial Corridor) be approved; the joint agreements with Sedgwick County be approved and the Mayor be authorized to sign; and the use of local funds derived from property within the corporate limits for the Wichita State University Board of Trustees per the Interlocal -- carried Agreement between the City and County be approved. Motion carried 7 to 0. ORDINANCE NO. 43-940 An Ordinance making and fixing general tax levy for the City of Wichita, Kansas, for the year beginning January 1, 1999, and ending December 31, 1999, and relating thereto, and concurrently approving certain amendments to the 1998 adopted Budget, read for the second time. Knight moved that the Ordinance be placed upon its passage and adopted. Motion carried 7 to 0. Yeas: Cole, Ferris, Gale, Kamen, Lambke, Rogers, Knight. TIF - GILBERT & MOSLEY TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT #1 - GILBERT & MOSLEY. Council Member Kamen declared a conflict of interest and abstained from participate on this Item. Ray Trail Director of Finance reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 98-727. On July 28, 1998, the City Council authorized the publication of the hearing notice, and set the maximum ad valorem tax increment for the 1999 budget. TIF District #1 was established in August 1991 to fund the clean-up of groundwater contamination in the Gilbert and Mosley Redevelopment District. Clean-up expenditures not attributable, not billable, to potentially responsible parties are covered by the tax increment. The City has entered into a legal agreement with one responsible party, and is aggressively pursuing additional agreements with other identified potentially responsible parties. The Gilbert and Mosley redevelopment project is currently running far behind schedule due to delays in the litigation process and delays associated with the processes of oversight and approval by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and the Environmental Protection Agency. These delays may make it impossible to complete the project within the 20-year time frame in which the District's tax increment will be available to fund this project. In light of these facts, staff are currently evaluating options for accelerating the project's schedule, although any such option will probably result in a higher overall project cost. Other possible options could include petitioning the Kansas State Legislature for a waiver or extension of the deadline; or an eventual re-establishment of the District in some form. The proposed 1999 budget includes total expenditures of $10,689,170; of this amount, pilot tests and construction of remediation structures result in a capital outlay budget of $7,632,870. Contractuals are budgeted at $1,406,890 and include operations and maintenance costs incurred by the project's contractor, legal costs associated with identification of potentially responsible parties, and costs associated with oversight by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and the Environmental Protection Agency. Other expenditures include debt service, salaries, and other staff costs such as telephone charges, sampling equipment and safety equipment. Contributions from potentially responsible parties are budgeted at $4.8 million, special obligation (tax increment) bond proceeds are budgeted at $5.9 million, and interest earnings estimated at $50,050. The tax increment is set at $740,000. The proposed tax increment for the 1999 budget cannot be increased because it has already been officially published, but the amount can be reduced by City Council action. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Knight moved that the public hearing be closed on the 1999 budget of the Gilbert and Mosley Site Redevelopment District; the 1999 budget of $10,689,170 be approved; and -- carried the 1999 Budget Ordinance for the District be adopted. Motion carried 6 to 0. (Kamen abstained) ORDINANCE NO. 43-941 An Ordinance making and filing an increment in ad valorem taxes for the Gilbert and Mosley site redevelopment district, City of Wichita, Kansas, for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 1999, and ending December 31, 1999, read for the second time. Knight moved that the Ordinance be placed upon its passage and adopted. Motion carried 6 to 0. (Kamen abstained) Yeas: Cole, Ferris, Gale, Lambke, Rogers, Knight. TIF - NIC TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT #2 - NORTH INDUSTRIAL CORRIDOR. Council Member Kamen declared a conflict of interest and abstained from participation on this Item. Ray Trail Director of Finance reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 98-728. On July 28, 1998, the City Council authorized the publication of the hearing notice, and set the maximum ad valorem tax increment for the 1999 budget. TIF District #2 was established in March 1996 to fund the clean-up of groundwater contamination in the North Industrial Corridor Redevelopment District. Clean-up expenditures not attributable, not billable, to potentially responsible parties are covered by the tax increment. The City has entered into a legal agreement with 26 potentially responsible parties who have agreed to pay the costs of cleaning up the pollution for which they are responsible. The proposed 1999 budget includes total expenditures of $967,780; of this amount, pilot tests and preliminary remediation activities result in a capital outlay budget of $150,000. Contractuals are budgeted at $811,930 to pay the cost of the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study, legal costs, and costs associated with oversight by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment and the Environmental Protection Agency. Other expenditures include staff costs such as telephone charges, vehicle usage for site monitoring, sampling equipment and safety equipment. Contributions from potentially responsible parties are budgeted at $430,000, and interest earnings estimated at $4,820. The tax increment is set at $570,000. Proposed projects in the North Industrial Corridor area requiring extensive soil testing and pilot tests were not foreseen when the 1998 budget was adopted. These projects make it necessary to increase the expenditure authorization for the 1998 budget from the originally adopted amount of $569,260 to the revised total of $826,780. Because it had been previously published, the amount of the tax increment could not be changed from the original budget of $150,000; therefore no change in the levy is projected or recommended. Overall, the revised budget reflects lower revenues and higher expenditures than the originally adopted budget; this is supportable due to a fund cash balance in excess of $550,000 at the end of 1997. The proposed tax increment for the 1999 budget cannot be increased because it has already been officially published, but the amount can be reduced by City Council action. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired whether anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared.

ACQUISITION SERVICESCONTRACT VALUATION AND ACQUISITION SERVICES FOR THE BAYLEY STREET RAIL CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT. (District VI) Agenda Report No. 98-737. The Bayley Street Rail Corridor Improvement Project, approved by City Council on June 24, 1998, requires the acquisition of eleven tracts along the corridor. Due to the timing of the project, these acquisitions must be completed by the end of August, 1998. Due to the short acquisition period, requests for proposal to provide acquisition and valuation services were solicited from area real estate firms and appraisers. Due to the extremely short time frame for acquisition, time required to accomplish the project was of prime importance in the evaluation of proposals. Firms were also judged on experience and price. Based on the above criteria, Coldwell Banker Dinning Beard , Realtors was recommended by the selection committee to perform valuations and acquisitions for the Bayley Street Rail Corridor project. The contract is based on a cost of $100 per property valuation plus three percent of the purchase price of any property acquired through negotiated purchase. The project currently calls for the valuation of thirteen properties and the acquisition of eleven tracts. Additional tracts may be added as the project progresses. This agreement was originally approved under the City Manager’s approval authority but it now appears that the compensation to the consultant will exceed $10,000, requiring City Council approval.

Agenda Report No. 98-738. The Internet is used by several departments to conduct research or to communicate with other agencies or organizations across the country. Federal grants now require access to the Internet to request grant information. Accessibility to the Internet has mushroomed over the past several years with more and more opportunities to reach the public. The City of Wichita can provide more information in a timely, cost effective manner through the use of a centralized access point to the Internet. Installation of a firewall is a necessary step to ensure a secure environment for the city’s computer systems. Quotes from the two local Internet service providers, Paracom Technologies (a Feist subsidiary) and Southwind, were requested to provide a turnkey Internet Firewall solution. Southwind, paired with Secure Network Systems Inc. was the only respondent. Southwind provides Internet services for the Wichita Public Library, Johnson County, Oklahoma City and many school districts throughout Kansas. Secure Network Systems will provide the installation and maintenance of the firewall hardware and software and Southwind will provide the Internet services. One-time cost for the firewall and anti-virus software, hardware and installation of a T1 circuit will be $61,654. Ongoing charges for the Internet service provider, maintenance, and the circuits will be $ 15,933 in 1998 and $28,858 in 1999. City departments currently pay monthly fees of approximately $40 to maintain each Internet account and separate telephone line. Additionally, the startup costs for this service are approximately $2,350 for each access point (standalone PC, phone line install). Overall costs to the city could be reduced by consolidating separate telephone lines used specifically for Internet access. A program option is included in the 1998 Revised Data Center budget.

(District II) Agenda Report No. 98-739. On August 19, 1997, the City Council considered a proposal by residents of the College Hill neighborhood for a public/private partnership to construct a new neighborhood pool. The City council voted 6-0 to approve the proposal. On June 2, 1998, the City Council approved the Petition and Resolution and authorized the Staff Screening and Selection Committee to select an architect for design. Thirty two (32) Requests for Proposals were mailed to local and state architectural firms. Two (2) firms responded as follows: Howard & Helmer Architects P.A., and Randal Steiner Architects. The Staff Screening and Selection Committee interviewed both firms selecting Howard & Helmer Architects P.A. as the design consultant for this project. The design agreement provides for a lump sum payment of $60,850, including reimbursables. The estimated project cost is $750,000, with $250,000 paid by the City-at-large and $500,000 paid by special assessments and donations.

LABORATORY SUPPLIESLABORATORY SUPPLIES CONTRACT. Agenda Report No. 98-740. The City’s four laboratories purchase approximately $100,000 of laboratory supplies per year through the formal and informal competitive bid process. The State of Kansas has a contract for laboratory supplies selected through a competitive bid process. It would be beneficial for the City to utilize the State’s contract. Staff evaluation of the volume pricing discounts show that the State of Kansas contract would save the City 15 percent on laboratory supplies, resulting in a cost savings of $15,000 per year. The contract would also enable the City to expedite delivery, reduce inventory costs, and simplify the procurement process for the requesting departments. The City would not be obligated to any specific purchases or volume of purchases. The Contract provides departments the ability to purchase laboratory supplies at the lowest net cost. Ordinance No. 38-122 provides for the purchase of supplies, services, and equipment utilizing contracts and agreements of other governmental entities which have been awarded subject to public bidding, and approved by the proper governmental entities authority.

GRANT AGREEMENTGRANT AGREEMENT - KANSAS STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY. Agenda Report No. 98-743. In January 1997, the Historic Preservation Office of the Metropolitan Area Planning Department was awarded a grant in the amount of $21,975 from the Kansas State Historical Society's Historic Preservation Fund grant program for 1997-98. The funds were allocated for a College Hill Design Principles Document and an Historic Resources Survey in Old Town. The grant program finances activities across the state that will contribute to planning for the preservation of the built environment and archeological resources. In February 1998, Council approved contracts in the amount of $20,675 to complete a Design Principles Document for the College Hill area, and an Historic Resources Survey project in Old Town. The remaining $1,300 from the grant budget was used to reproduce the City’s “Discover Historic Wichita!” brochure, which features information on all of Wichita’s registered historic landmarks and districts. It is requested that Council approve the grant agreement to allocate the funds. Administrative Regulation #61 requires grant agreements in excess of $10,000 to be reviewed, approved, and appropriate authorization given by the City Council. The grant award is $21,957.

COMPUTER SYSTEM MUNICIPAL COURT COMPUTER SYSTEM ENHANCEMENTS. Agenda Report No.98-744. On June 2, 1998, the City Council approved the purchase of system maintenance from Public Research Corporation (PRC) in the amount of $25,000. The program changes were for improvements to the Uniform Criminal Complaint (UCC) form used by Central Inspection for housing and code violations which are adjudicated in Neighborhood Environmental Court. The changes are needed to link the address of the violation with the case listed on the docket. This will allow neighborhood residents to better track code and nuisance violations. (Currently the docket lists the defendant’s name, but not the address and OCI is manually matching addresses with violations.) Municipal Court staff contacted Public Research Corporation to initiate services for system improvements. Upon review of the quotation, PRC informed the City they had underbid services for UCC modifications, and then rescinded their quote. The company submitted a revised quote for services in the amount of $45,975. As a result of staff negotiations with PRC, it was agreed to include the cost of purges in the quote and PRC will complete both system modifications for $45,000.

(Districts IV & V) Marvin Krout Director of Planning reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 98-750. The areas proposed for annexation are located north and south of MacArthur Road, east and west of Hoover Street, including areas north of MacArthur Road, west and east of West Street, and also areas located north and south of K-42 Highway, east of Tyler Road. This annexation contains approximately 805.8 acres and 1,027 properties (1,022 platted and 5 unplatted). Other areas to be annexed include Hoover Street from 31st Street South to MacArthur Road, a portion of the Wichita-Valley Center Flood Control, and a portion of the MO & PAC Railroad R.O.W. The predominant land-use of the area to be annexed is residential with some industrial and commercial uses. Likewise, the majority of the subject property is zoned "RR" Rural Residential, "SF-20" Single- Family Residential, "SF- 6" Single-Family Residential and "LI" Limited Industrial. There are also several smaller tracts zoned "LC" Limited Commercial and "GC" General Commercial. Those tracts zoned "SF- 20" Single-Family Residential and "RR" Rural Residential will convert to the "SF-6 Single- Family Residential district upon annexation while remaining tracts will retain their current zoning. The proposed annexation will allow for continued orderly growth and expansion in the southwest part of Wichita. Almost all of the properties described in the service plan are already receiving water and nearly half are receiving sewer service from the City of Wichita. The City will benefit from additional revenue generated from existing and expected residential, commercial and industrial development. If the City Council desires to proceed with this annexation, the Council should adopt the resolution establishing the hearing date. Once the hearing date is established, a plan for extension of municipal services to the area will be placed on file in the City Clerk’s Office. The Service Extension Plan outlines the City’s intentions to provide major municipal services to the area. The total appraised value of the land and improvements within the proposed annexation is $68,323,290, resulting in an annual City Ad Valorem tax revenue of approximately $282,183. Major municipal services to be provided to this area upon annexation are street maintenance, ditch cleaning, culvert cleaning, fire protection, police protection, building code enforcement, and health code enforcement. The cost of municipal services to be provided upon annexation will be funded by the operating departments currently delivering these services. Major municipal services such as local street improvements, water and sewer service may be provided to this area upon request by the property owners. As mentioned earlier, these services are already available to certain properties within the area proposed for annexation. The cost of municipal services requested by the property owners will be distributed among the City at large and the benefitting property owners according to current City policies. In the absence of an annexation request from a property owner, State law requires the adoption of a resolution by the City Council indicating the City’s intent to annex, a description of the property to be annexed, and a notice of the time and place for a public hearing to consider the matter. Copies of the resolution must be mailed, by certified mail, to all owners of the property proposed to be annexed within 10 days of adoption, and the resolution must be published once in the official City newspaper not less than one week nor more than two weeks prior to the public hearing date. A report stating the plans for the extension of municipal services to the proposed annexation area must also be placed on file for public inspection in the City Clerk’s Office.
