City Manager Randy Criswell and City Engineer Dwight Brandt presented 6 bids received and opened Thursday, January 26, 2017 for the proposed replacement of Lift Station No. 4 and necessary forcemain and gravity lines. Mr. Criswell stated that staff needs direction as to whether or not the City Commission agrees with the level of developer participation being proposed by the City Engineer and staff. Mr. Criswell said this is about a $4 million project. Mr. Brandt presented maps of the proposed wastewater line and lift station that would service the proposed subdivisions of Madison Park and Canyon Crestview Estates. Mr. Criswell said consideration needed to be given to the fact that water to the area for the proposed subdivision(s) had already been provided at no cost to the developers and felt this justifies asking for the developers’ participation on the wastewater portion of the project. Mr. Criswell stated the City Commission also needed to let staff know if they were on board for taking up to $2 million dollars out of reserves and using the $1.1 million that had been encumbered over the last several years to pay for this project. Mayor Pro-Tem Hinders asked if there was a possibility of the City acquiring the water rights on the property. Mr. Criswell said that had been discussed but was not settled, and noted that would be a good subject to include in the future when development policies are amended and updated. After discussion, the City Commission directed staff to proceed with meeting with the developers of Madison Park and Canyon Crestview Estates to discuss their required costs, and gave approval for the use of up to $2 million out of the City of Canyon Reserves to pay for the city’s portion of the project, with the understanding that the bid would need to be awarded prior to the March 6 meeting. Item 9. Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Ordinance No. 1054, Amending Title XI, Business Regulations, by Adding Chapter 118, Credit Access Business Regulation, Setting Forth Regulation Requirements and Credit Extension Guidelines for Credit Access Businesses. Code Enforcement Director Danny Cornelius presented Ordinance No. 1054 for consideration. Mr. Cornelius stated a “Payday Lender” or Credit Access Business is a business where a person City Commission Meeting February 6, 2017 Page 3 of 4 can take a cash advance on his or her next paycheck / car title with interest rates that often exceed 500 percent APR. Mr. Cornelius said the loans are typically a two week or one month loan with the majority of borrowers refinancing 6 to 10 times. Mr. Cornelius said at this time there is no State Legislation regulating these type businesses so many cities are adopting Ordinances modeled from examples provided by Texas Municipal League. Mr. Cornelius stated that staff recommended adoption of the Ordinance. After discussion, Mayor Pro-Tem Hinders moved, duly seconded by Commissioner Logan to adopt Ordinance No. 1054 as presented. Motion carried unanimously.

Mr. Behrens said 7 submittals had been received. A scoring system based on the criteria provided by the firms in the RFQ was used to rank the submittals.

Randy Criswell, City Manager I certify that the above Notice of Meeting was posted on the bulletin board of the Civic Complex of the City of Canyon, Texas on the 3rd day of February 2017. Gretchen Mercer, City Clerk City of Canyon CITY MANAGER’S EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF AGENDA To: Mayor and City Commission From: Randy Criswell, City Manager Date: February 6, 2017 Re: Executive Summary of Agenda Packet for February 6, 2017 Item Number 7 Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Bids Received for Wells number 34-37. We’ve received bids for the drilling and casing of four (4) wells on the Brown Road property we recently purchased for water rights. As we’ve discussed, the only way to protect our interest is to be the first to Permit and install wells, so we’re doing that. These are good prices, and this will be the drilling, casing, and site work for the wells. Power, pumps, and piping will come later. This also includes a bore under the railroad tracks to get to our transmission line on the north side. I concur with the recommendation to award the bid to Hydro Resources in the amount of $715,981. Item Number 8 Discuss Bids Received For Wastewater Collection System Improvements: Lift Station No. 4 and Associated Pipeline Work. Dan has written an informative memo, and Dwight has provided some helpful drawings to assist you in understanding these bids. This is a large project, and the Mayor asked for this item to be for discussion tonight, with award to come at a later date. There is a lot of cost, we’ll need to dip into our reserves, and there will also be some participation in cost by the developers. As such, we felt this item would need to be studied closely so you can make a good, informed decision. Dwight Brandt will be here to go over the bids and the project with you. Item Number 9 Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Ordinance No. 1054. I’ll simplify this by calling it a Payday Loan ordinance. We’ve been wanting to do this ever since the Payday Loan establishment opened up on 4th Avenue awhile back. Now is a good time to implement this ordinance, because we don’t have any existing businesses of this nature in town today. This Ordinance is basically a modified version of a TML-created ordinance that has been court-tested and withstood the test. Most cities are using this template. If you agree with staff that we do NOT want this type of business in our city, this will accomplish the goal. The Ordinance doesn’t prohibit these businesses, it just simply restricts the way they’re allowed to operate, which makes it non-attractive for them to be here. I concur with the recommendation that Ordinance No. 1054 be adopted. Item Number 10 Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Selection of Finalists for Comprehensive Plan Update. We’ve received and reviewed the RFQ Submittals for the update of our City of Canyon CITY MANAGER’S EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF AGENDA Comprehensive Plan. Jon has written a good, informative memo. At this point, we’ll be meeting as a committee prior to the meeting, and will recommend 3 or 4 finalists to you. Once the committee selects those finalists, we’ll Dropbox all of their information for your review. At the meeting, we’ll ask you to approve the finalists, and then we’ll need your input on how you want to conduct the interviews. If you, the City Commission want to conduct the interviews, then we’ll need you to tell us. If you’d prefer the process involve some other methodology like we’ve used to make the finalist recommendation list, then you can give us that direction. Either way, the first step is to decide who the finalists will be, and then decide how the interviews will be conducted.

Mr. City Commission Meeting January 23, 2017 Page 3 of 3 Criswell said this will be a very nice apartment complex and will resolve the problem that the property to be annexed is currently in a “donut hole” surrounded by the City Limits.

City of Canyon REGARDING ITEM 7 AGENDA To: Randy Criswell, City Manager From: Dan Reese, Public Works Director Date: January 31, 2017 Re: Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Bids Received for Water System Improvements – Local Well Field – Well No’s. 34, 35, 36, and 37. This is a project that follows up on the purchase of water rights on a property that has become known as the “Brown Rd. wellfield”. After this purchase, we found ourselves in a similar situation that we had a few years ago, with the Rockwell Rd. wellfield. After some test hole investigation and to protect our investment in these water rights, we recommended that these four wells be drilled. First and foremost, this protects our well spacing, as in, we’d be the first one ones with permitted wells and adjacent owners will have to space their permitted wells based on our well locations. We’ve spaced our wells to maximize our acreage and, under the water district rules, will be limited to produce 265 gpm from these wells. This pumping rate limits the well spacing to no greater than 300 yards (900 feet). So, in essence, the adjacent owners can have a permitted well no closer than 300 yards to ours. Keep in mind, too, that this does not apply to domestic wells. Domestic wells are those that produce 17.5 gpm or less and do not require a permit from the district. Please be reminded that these bids were only for the drilling, casing, and site work (grading and fencing) for these wells. The project also includes a bore of the BNSF railroad, to the north, from which the transmission piping will be routed through. No pumps, electrical service, well piping, or transmission piping (other than through the bore) will be installed at this point. Funding for this project will come from some of the remaining water bond funds. Bids were opened on January 26, 2017, and four bids were received. The lowest bid was submitted by Hydro Resources of Sunray with a bid of $ 715,981.00. We have dealt w/ Hydro in the past and are very comfortable with their work. If you recall, they drilled all six wells at Rockwell. A recommendation letter from the Engineer and the bid tabulation sheet is attached. The public works department concurs with the recommendation of the Engineer to award to the bid to Hydro Resources in the amount of $ 715,981.00. City of Canyon REGARDING ITEM 8 AGENDA To: Randy Criswell, City Manager From: Dan Reese, Public Works Director Date: January 31, 2017 Re: Hear Update and Discuss Evaluation of the Bids Received for Wastewater Collection System Improvements – Replacement of Lift Station No. 4. This is the large project that we’re also calling the North Canyon Sewer Expansion. Due to a potential large amount of growth north and west of Hunsley Hills, we had to upsize / replace Lift Station #4, its force main and expand the gravity collection system to handle this growth. During the design, we sized everything to handle the known incoming subdivisions plus allowing ourselves capacity for handling additional growth to the northwest. Early in this process, we also let the developers know that the City could not bear the complete cost of a project of this magnitude. We had planned all along that some developer participation will be required to complete the project. The cost to the developer(s) will need to be discussed. Brandt Engineers has some recommendations on this, and the ultimate decision will be the City Commission’s. When they give staff direction as to whether or not they support the recommendations, we’ll contact the developers and let them know. On January 26, 2017, we received and opened six bids. Bidding was for a base bid and two additive alternates. The base bid includes everything needed to serve the Madison Park subdivision. The alternate bids were designed in case additional capacity was needed for the commercial lots on the west side of Madison Park and to serve any development west of FM 2590. At a minimum, the base bid needs to be constructed. The low bid for the base bid was submitted by L.A. Fuller and Sons Construction, in the amount of $ 3,312,780.00. Fuller’s bids for the alternates were $ 107,829.00 and $ 240,859.00, respectively. So, if the complete project is awarded, the total cost would be $ 3,661,468.00. In preliminary discussions with our Engineer, we have come up with a recommendation to the Commission as to how the costs might be shared. Dwight will be here Monday night to lead the discussion of the particular details of the various portions of the project, and our recommendation. We have approximately $ 1,100,000 available for this project, with the intent from the beginning that the necessary balance would be made up from reserves. The award recommendation letter from Brandt and bid tabulation sheet is attached. Sketches of the project have also been included with the recommended cost sharing breakdowns. The Public Works Department is not asking for action on this item. The information provided is to enhance a detailed discussion of the project, potential cost sharing and bid award, which is intended for a later date.

A “Payday Lender” or a Credit Access Business is a business where a person can walk into the business and take a cash advance on his or her next paycheck. Most of these businesses offer a similar cash advance with a car title as collateral. Interest rates on these loans, when fees are included, often exceed 500 percent APR. The loans are typically marketed as two week or one month loans, but the majority of borrowers refinance, often 6 to 10 times. In response to the state legislature’s failure to adopt any substantial regulation of Credit Access Businesses, several cities have adopted an ordinance similar to Ordinance No. 1054, which is modeled after an example provided by the Texas Municipal League. The ordinance would require Credit Access Businesses to: 1. Obtain an annual certificate of registration from the City. 2. Maintain records of all extensions of consumer credit, including the amount of cash advanced and number of installments and renewals. The records must be maintained for at least 3 years and made available for inspection by the City. 3. Provide that cash advanced in the form of a deferred presentment transaction not exceed 20 percent of the consumer’s gross monthly income. 4. Provide that cash advanced in form of a motor vehicle title loan not exceed the lesser of 3 percent of the consumer’s gross annual income or 70 percent of the retail value of the motor vehicle. 5. Provide that repayment of the extension is limited to 4 installments. Proceeds from each installment must be used to repay at least 25 percent of the principle. Advances that provide for repayment in installments may not be refinanced or renewed. 6. Provide that extensions with a single lump sum repayment may not be refinanced or renewed more than 3 times. Proceeds from each refinancing or renewal must be used to repay at least 25 percent of the principle. 7. Provide that every agreement be written in the consumer’s language of preference or must be read to the consumer in the language of preference. 8. Provide a form, prescribed by the City, to each consumer which references non-profit agencies that provide financial education and training programs and agencies with cash assistance programs. It is the staff recommendation that Ordinance No. 1054 be adopted. City of Canyon ORDINANCE NO. 1054 Credit Access Business Regulation AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF CANYON, TEXAS, AMENDING TITLE XI, BUSINESS REGULATIONS, OF THE CITY OF CANYON CODE OF ORDINANCES, BY ADDING CHAPTER 118, CREDIT ACCESS BUSINESS REGULATION; SETTING FORTH REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSION GUIDELINES FOR CREDIT ACCESS BUSINESSES; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY; PROVIDING FOR REPEALER; AND PROVIDING A PENALTY; PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE. WHEREAS, certain credit access businesses engage in abusive and predatory lending practices, offering easy money to those members of our community who are in a tight spot with onerous terms and fees; and WHEREAS, the practices of certain access businesses cause members of our community to become trapped in a cycle of short term, high interest loans resulting in large debt and huge payments; and WHEREAS, the Pew Charitable Trusts, in their publication entitled Payday Lending in America: Who Borrows, Where they Borrow, and Why, (July 2012), wrote that “payday loans are sold as two-week credit products that provide fast cash, but borrowers are actually indebted for an average of five months per year.” The report further noted that “on average, a borrower takes out eight loans of $375 each per year and spends $520 on interest;” and WHEREAS, the Pew Charitable Trusts, in their publication entitled Payday Lending in America: Who Borrows, Where they Borrow, and Why, (July 2012), also noted: “How much borrowers spend on loans depends heavily on the fees permitted by their state. The same $500 storefront loan would generally cost about $55 in Florida, $75 in Nebraska, $87.50 in Alabama, and $100 in Texas, even if it were provided by the same national company in all those states. Previous research has found that lenders tend to charge the maximum permitted in a state;” and WHEREAS, the Pew Charitable Trusts, in their publication entitled Payday Lending in America: Who Borrows, Where they Borrow, and Why, (July 2012), also stated that “the vast majority of borrowers use the loans on a long-term basis, not temporary one. Thus it seems that the payday loan industry is selling a product few people use as designed and that imposes debt that is consistently more costly and longer lasting than advertised;” and WHEREAS, the Community Financial Services Association of America (CFSA), the national trade association for companies that offer small dollar, short-term loans or payday advances includes the following in the “Member Best Practices” as listed on its internet site (http://cfsaa.com/cfsa-member-best-practices.aspx): “Members shall not allow customers to rollover a payday advance (the extension of an outstanding advance by payment of only a fee) unless expressly authorized by state law, but in such cases where authorized will limit rollovers to four or the state limit, whichever is less.” The need for consumer understanding was also outlined on this website: “A contract between a member and the customer must fully outline the terms of the payday advance transaction. Members agree to disclose the cost of the service fee both as a dollar amount and as an annual percentage rate (“APR”);” and WHEREAS, the Center for Responsible Lending, a non-profit, non-partisan organization, states on its internet site (http://www.responsiblelending.org/other- consumer-loans/tools-resources/fast-facts.html) that: “car title loans are based on the value of a borrower’s car - the ability to repay the loans is not factor in the lending decision…”; “loan rates for a car title are typically 20-30 times that of rates charged by credit card issuers…”; “the average car title customer renews their loan 8 times…”; and, “on a $500 title loan, this average customer will pay back $650 in interest over eight months; the principal borrowed will be in addition;” and WHEREAS, lenders hold onto the motor vehicle title and when borrowers cannot continue to pay the fees, they can lose their vehicles, which can drastically affect the borrower’s means of transportation for work and other essential household functions.

INTRODUCED AND PASSED by the City Commission of the City of Canyon, Texas on the 6th day of February, 2017 ________________________ Quinn Alexander, Mayor ATTEST: __________________________ Gretchen Mercer, City Clerk REGARDING ITEM 10 AGENDA To: Randy Criswell, City Manager From: Jon Behrens, Assistant to the City Manager Date: January 31, 2017 Re: Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Comprehensive Planning Consultant Finalists Selection as Recommended by the Committee. Prior to the January 13, 2017, deadline we received seven qualified submittals associated with the City of Canyon Comprehensive Plan Updated RFP. On January 16, 2017, the RFP’s were distributed to Mayor Alexander, Randy Criswell, Dan Reese, Chris Sharp, Danny Cornelius, Dwight Brandt, and Jon Behrens. This group is using a submittal review scoring system based on the criteria provided to firms in the RFP to rank the submittals. The review group will meet on Thursday, February 2, to review the submittals and combine their individual score sheets. Once the group has determined the top three or possibly four submittals, those submittals will be brought to the Commission meeting along with a recommendation that those firms be selected as finalist. Firms that are selected as finalist will have the opportunity to make a presentation here in Canyon. Staff would like to seek input from the Commission related to the interview, final selection, and contract negotiation processes. The RFP discussed the possibility of interviews the week of February 13, however, that date may be challenging for everyone involved. Completion of the interview process prior to March 1, may be a more reasonable goal. Should you have any questions related to this process please let me know.
