Tabled - Contract extension to Southern Tire Mart for tire replacement and repair. Mr.

was $661,000 with added services. The added services included on site personnel at Solid
Waste. City staff received invoices for every repair and logged the cost per vehicle to
account for all costs. Council member Sprawls requested for more detailed information. Mr.
Urrutia stated that the tires were dependable and reliable tires and was comparable to other
tires. He would provide information on the amount of tire replacements. The firm was
accredited through the State and meet safety standards. There was a 10% cost portion on

Purchase three Ford F550 Chassis Braun ambulances from Siddons Martin
Emergency Group. Rodd Huber, Assistant Fire Chief, stated that there would be two
replacements of ambulances and one new ambulance. The ambulances were the hardest
working vehicle as it covers all of Ector County. The cost was $1,030,308. Council member
Sprawls asked if the vehicles had hour meters to show its performance. Chief Huber did not
have that information. He reported that there were four ambulances out of service. Upon the
recommendation of Fire Rescue and Equipment Services, the ambulances were changed
from Freightliner to Ford F550. The parts were less expensive and there was a faster
turnaround from the shop.
Motion was made by Council member Thompson and seconded by Council member White
to approve the purchase as recommended. The motion was approved by the following vote:
Aye: Joven, Matta, Thompson, White, Sprawls, Willis, and Swanner
Nay: None
Tabled - Contract extension with Barron Service Parts Co. for on-site fleet parts
management and supply. Mr. Urrutia reported that since 2012 the Napa store operation
has been in place at the City shop. There were three Napa employees which was a cost
savings to the City. The contract was not to exceed $300,000 for the management fee. The
total contract was $1.8 million. The contract was for three years expiring in February 2024.
A catalog established the pricing with various discounts and a 10% mark up. The price was
below the store’s pricing. Council member Sprawls stated it was a good process but
requested more detailed information. Mr. Urrutia stated that the onsite counter included
parts delivery. Council member Matta asked if the three employees could be minimized. Mr.
Urrutia stated that the personnel was reviewed and there were different skill sets and three
was the least amount to operate efficiently. He explained how the inventory was managed.
Council member Thompson stated this approach was a good way and the fixed cost was
known. Mr. Urrutia reported that other cities used this approach.
Motion was made by Council member Sprawls Willis and seconded by Council member
Matta to table this item until more detailed information was provided. Mayor Joven requested
a report on measuring the work loss. The motion was approved by the following vote:
Aye: Joven, Matta, Sprawls, and Swanner
Nay: Thompson, White, and Willis
Discuss and consider expanding the Odessa Development Corporation (ODC) board
members from five members to seven members. Council member Sprawls presented
expanding the ODC board over a year ago to the last Council. Prior to the 2018 election,
each Council member had a representative on the ODC board. There was no reason not to
have each Council member have a representative. Mayor Joven explained that the premise
of the ODC reflected the voting council members and provided accountability. Most boards
reflected the Council. He reported that the Council took action to expand the board from five
to seven members but was later told that it was not allowed to expand. Council member
Matta stated that the January 8, 2020 reflected that the board was expanded. Ms. Brooks
stated that at that time, Council was directed that the board could not expand which was
incorrect. The current ODC bylaws reflect that each council member appointed a
representative. Ms. Brooks stated that the Council was incorrectly informed. Council
member Thompson stated that with more people on the board it was harder to gather a
quorum. He stated that Mayor serving as ex-officio was adequate. The five member ODC
Council Minutes

Page 4
board was a good decision-making board with good working relationships. Council member
Willis was not opposed to adding two members but to be cautious to follow the guidelines,
follow through with the projects, and be mindful that all boards were not equal. Mayor Joven
supported that the ODC board mirror the City Council. The recommendation to appoint the
Compliance Committee members to the ODD board did not adhere to the elected officials.
The ODC board appointed the Compliance Committee members. There needed to be
accountability and representation that reflected the Council. Council member Willis stated
that there were different skills, knowledge needed to make the board diverse. Council
member Thompson supported that the new ODC members be on Compliance Committee
and moved into the ODC board. Mayor Joven disagreed as it took away the appointment
from the Council. He stated that the ODC members serve at the pleasure of the City Council
and the accountability sits with the Council. The Council recognized that the appointees
must have a skill set to serve on the ODC board. Council member White endorsed the ODC
board as it had great members serving. Mayor Joven stated that there were no issues or
concerns with the ODC board as it was procedural. Council member Matta stated that ODC
does a great job and applauded its efforts. Tim Edgmon, ODC President, stated that ODC
members that served on Compliance Committee provided a smooth transition with a lesser
learning curve. Melanie Hollmann, ODC board member, stated that the board majority
served on the Compliance Committee. As former Compliance Committee members, the
process was understood, and it worked well. Gene Collins, ODC board member,
encouraged that the new board members attend the TML training and workshops on
economic development with the ever changes in the statutes.
Motion was made by Council member Matta and seconded by Council member Sprawls to
expand the ODC board from five members to seven members. The board would be
reflective of the City Council by having ODC members represented by the Mayor and each
Council member. The motion was approved by the following vote:
Aye: Joven, Matta, Sprawls, Willis, and Swanner
Nay: Thompson and White
MISCELLANEOUS
To consider, discuss and take any necessary action regarding any and all issues
related to COVID-19. Chief Huber reported that the vaccinations would be given
Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday or until they run out. The booster would be provided at
Ratliff Stadium with the City assisting the first week of March. Over 15,700 people have been
vaccinated. He reported that the COVID testing by the State would be extended though
March and possibly April. The Floyd Gwin site has been very successful. Council member

Impact Fees 101. Tom Kerr, Director of Public Works/Utilities, reported that Kimley Horn
conducted an Impact Fee Study, and the Capital Improvements Advisory Committee was
working on the study. He reviewed the study findings, and it was Council’s discretion of
implementation. Jeff Whitacre, Kimley Horn, stated that there was an infrastructure need with
the increase of growth. The stakeholders were the City Council, Advisory Committee, and
the general public. The study was for potential adoption of impact fees. He reviewed the
adoption process. The committee was halfway through the impact fee process that included
planning, analysis, and policy steps. The committee approved the land use assumptions.
He stated that the land use assumptions were based on a ten-year growth assumption.
There was a projected growth rate 1.3% in the city. The water service, wastewater service,
and the roadway service areas were assessed. He provided the history on the assumptions
and the funding for the infrastructure. Mr. Whitacre explained the impact fees which was to
recoup the cost of facility expansions to new development. He identified the benefits. The
funding mechanisms included General Fund, bonds, water sewer rates, and impact fees.
The impact fees allowed for Texas were roadway, water, wastewater, and drainage. Chapter
395 allowed a collected flexible fee for infrastructure. The benefits for the developers
included that the fee was known and equitable, predictable, and ensured accountability to
spend on the project. He reviewed the allowable items to be paid with the impact fees that
included the cost of the construction, survey, and engineering fees. Mr. Whitacre explained
the allowable uses for the impact fees. He reviewed the required schedule to implement the
impact fees. He explained how the boundaries were established from the code requirements
and the assistance from staff based on growth patterns. Most cities have impact fee
requirements in Texas. John Landgraf, committee member, reported that the committee was
discussing ways to fund the projects and impact fees was another tool. The committee
would meet with the developers for feedback on the impact fees. The fee amount has not
been discussed. Lines P and Q could be projects that can use impact fees. The committee
would review the best available mechanisms to fund projects. Recommendations would be
made to the Council for consideration. Council member Thompson stated that the
developers needed to pay their fair portion and not just the taxpayers.

1. Ellen Noel Art Museum I Renovation & Expansion Project
As the Museum's current facility is 35 years old, several challenges exist. These challenges were identified during a feasibility
study conducted in 2018. It was determined that upgrades of the current system and a moderate expansion of the facility are
necessary to ensure the Museum continues to serve our community into the future.
Challenges
Maintaining Industry Standards: A key factor in ENAM retention of AAM accreditation and Smithsonian Affiliation is meeting
industry standards in terms of mechanical systems. The building's mechanical systems have served the Museum well and many are
original to the initial construction 35 years ago. The following systems have reached the end of their lifecycle and require
replacement:
. Environmental control system (HVAC) to meet humidity and temperature criteria. A more efficient system will also result in cost
savings.
. The current security system is original to the building and is an analog platform. A new digital system is required to meet current
industry standards.
. Replacement elements for the Museum's lighting system are no longer commercially available. A new LED lighting system will
be more cost effective and meet industry standards.
. Upgrade of the IT Infrastructure is necessary to support new mechanical systems, business and programming applications
presented in the Museum.
. Re-configuring space usage in collections will allow for a designated temporary hold for quarantine and acclimatization purposes.
It will also provide much needed audio/visual storage.
. Investment in an appropriate fire suppression system is integral to securing the loan of significant artwork and exhibitions.
Why is this important? AAM Accreditation and Smithsonian Affiliate designation signifies to lenders and donors that the Ellen
Nodl Art Museum operates at the caliber of a national museum service such as the National Gallery, MOMA, or any other first tier
museum. The only major differences between these cultural organizations and ENAM is size and location. These designations attest
that while ENAM may be small, it is also mighty. This gives confidence to potential lenders and donors. However, like all
standards in any industry, as technology advances so do expectations. There is an expectation that certain systems be upgraded
regularly and that new criteria addressed. For example, when ENAM was built almost 35 years ago, fire suppression was not an
industry expectation. It is in today's environment. The lack of a fire suppression system has already impeded the Museum's ability
to borrow artwork and present major exhibitions (Warhol, Rembrandt). The Ellen Nodl Art Museum is committed to bringing the
highest level of programming to our community. It's ability to do so starts with its infrastructure.
Barriers to Entry: When the Museum was designed almost 35 years ago, museums were perceived as stewards that safeguard our
cultural legacy. Today, museums are gathering places for social and educational interaction. The Museum's solid brick faqade and
hidden entrance ways are psychological and physical barriers to entry. There is constant confusion as to where to enter the
Museum.
Limited Capacity Deters Growth: Currently, the Museum does not have a dedicated event space or multi-media space thereby
impeding the following: . Scale and scope of programming . Ability to serve expanding community . Ability to support other
cultural organizations and corporate needs . Hinders collaboration Restricts Diversifying Earned Revenue.
Sustainability: additional event space for rentals would contribute to the museum's sustainability

a glass fagade.
. Bring the outside in by connecting people spaces with the Museum's Sensory Garden.
. The consolidated 9,700 sq. ft. gallery space combined with 4,700 event space provides
a maximum exhibition space of 14,000 sq. ft.
. Multi-purpose New Media Gallery I Theater with 100 seat capacity

to 500 can be divided into one larger (2,700 sq. ft.) and two smaller (1,000 sq. ft)
meeting rooms that serve double duty as classrooms.
. The concentration of collections and exhibition activity to the west-end of the building,
reduces the square footage that must be cooled and humidified to meet AAM
standards resulting in increased efficiencies. Zoning also addresses storage problems.
. Dedicated event space and proper kitchen facilities create an earned revenue
opportunity for the Museum.

Arts & Education I A Shared Commitment
As one of the few cultural institutions within the region, the Ellen NoElArt Museum has the
privilege and responsibility of encouraging participation in the arts and enhancing the quality of life
for the rapidly growing Permian Basin area. As the arts are a valuable tool for creating strong
communities, the programs offered improve overall achievement for adults and children,
create strong social networks, bring together diverse groups of people, foster a sense of community and
build relationships.
a Last year the Museum served nearly 35,000 people through art exhibits, opening receptions,
classes, tours, lectures, movies, and free community events.
a Continuing its mission of connecting people with art, the Museum partners with other
organizations to develop and host additional community involvement projects. These partners
include several area organizations like Ector County lSD, UTPB, Boys and Girls Club of Odessa,
Ector and Midland County Libraries, United Way of Odessa, Texas Division of Blind Services,
West Texas Food Bank and Basin PBS. Together we increase awareness and emphasize the
importance of arts and culture, community service, and education and literacy.
ECISD I The limitation of resources within the Ector County lndependent School District's (ECISD) often
results in the complete elimination of fine arts from the classroom in our elementary schools. Growing
up with limited access to art instruction and art education deprives students of a unique cultural
experience as well as a valuable learning opportunity. According to several studies, exposure to the arts
not only helps in the development of critical thinking skills it can also affect other areas of study such as
math, science, and social studies.
ENAM addresses this need by offering free admission and tours, low cost tuition for classes, and
scholarship opportunities for children who are economically disadvantaged. As a non-profit
organization, ENAM relies on support from memberships, local foundations, businesses, and donors
which help us to fill the void of art education in the lives of thousands of children, teens, and adults.
Art classes and field trips can provide students with "a window into a broader world filled with different
people and ideas." (Natalie Wexler, Forbes Magazine article, February 28,z}tg)
ART 2 GO I This is a comprehensive program that takes place during the school year throughout ECISD
elementary schools. Participating schools have weekly visits to their second-grade classes where they
learn about an artist, heara story relating to them and experience a hands-on studio activity. This
program combines literacy, visual literacy and art education and is based on the Grade 2 curriculum.
Currently, Art 2 Go is in every ECISD elementary school in Odessa that wishes to participate. Art 2 Go is
also adapted and delivered throughout the summer, including 3 days per week at the 4 locations in
Odessa, First 5 - Kindercamps, and High Sky Ranch.
FINE ARTS CONNECTION I As most ECISD elementary schools no longer offer art classes, this 3O-year
collaboration helps educators to meet the K-12 Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) standards
for art. This along with Art 2 Go are the Museum's largest educational programs and allows thousands of
third grade students to tour the galleries and participate in hands on activities. This program is also
made available to private schools and all schools in communities in the Permian Basin.
