WHAT IF A CASE GOES TO THE COUNTY?
All City cases are to have an affidavit included.
If the City refers a case to the County, these
affidavits are designed to be copied and pasted
for easy referral.
This saves time in the referral process – Allows for the
County to charge quickly.
SHAPING CITY OF TOPEKA PROSECUTION APPROACHES
YWCA trained the Prosecution Office regarding trauma and
victim communication.
Toured another municipality recently taking on domestic
violence prosecution.
• Necessary to have victim room
• Parking concerns
• Witness preparation
• Separate dockets
Continuing education through training opportunities.
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS DIFFERENT
Victims often remain in relationships with perpetrators – Or have
ongoing communication due to children in common.
Victims are often concerned about how prosecution will affect the
defendant’s employment and liberties.
Victims often want to see a defendant provided services for anger
management, substance abuse issues, and mental health.
Victims may be compliant up until the day of trial – Or contact is lost
throughout a case.
It is important to remember these case may be only scratching the
surface of extremely dangerous situations.

Page 5 of 16 November 14, 2024
the preceding year’s fourth (4th) quarter financial report that includes performance of sales

D. Usage of Facility.
1. Intended Use. The Facility shall be used predominantly as a cultural entertainment and
educational facility that fosters performing and visual arts in the community. TPAC and
the City will make every reasonable effort to resolve and prevent any actual or potential
violations of this section. TPAC will not allow the center to be used for purposes either
illegal or incompatible with:
i. The intended use of the Facility
ii. TPAC’s educational and charitable purposes
iii. The Facility's status as a publicly owned building
iv. The Facility's proximity to City offices and services
2. City Use of Facility. TPAC agrees to allow the City to use the Facility when no scheduling
conflicts exist with other scheduled events. City usage of the Facility will be subject to all
rules and regulations for generally scheduled events. TPAC agrees that no user charge
will be assessed against the City for the City’s activities or events that relate to the City
government organization’s activities. The City will reimburse the costs incurred by TPAC
in supporting the use of the Facility by the City, including but not limited to staffing the
event, janitorial services, equipment, and consumable supplies.
E. City Access. TPAC and the City recognize that the Facility is located in a public building
owned by the City, which also houses many of the operational departments and functions of
City government. Given this recognition, TPAC will allow the City access to all areas of the
Facility unless such access unreasonably and actually impairs the intended use of the Facility,
the ability of TPAC to effectively manage the Facility, or the security of scheduled events,
activities, or the participants of such. Any objection to the presence of City personnel in the
Facility shall be provided in writing to the City Manager or their designee. The refusal or
inability of the City to cure such violation may be considered a default of this Agreement.
F. Security. City and TPAC shall abide by the security plan set forth herein, in order to ensure
personal safety and the security of Facility and its contents to prevent unauthorized persons
from gaining access to the Facility or to City Hall. Areas of primary concern include the main
mechanical room and all portions of City Hall. Security is a significant concern for TPAC and
the City with the garage doors into TPAC, which is used for City deliveries as well as TPAC.
Garage door users must monitor the area to ensure unauthorized personnel do not enter the
building.
1. Doors must not be propped open for use unless occupied.
Page 6 of 16 November 14, 2024
2. Access from TPAC into City Hall is prohibited except by the Stage Manager for show
related issues.
3. The Wellness Center should be accessed only from the main door on the east end of the
room near the elevator. Ingress and egress to the main Wellness Center door should be
from the east garage door area, tunnel from City Hall, or the municipal court doors and
elevator.
4. Business access to the municipal court and City council chambers should be primarily
from the south exterior doors. While events are in session or the Facility is in the process
of being setup, teardown, or rehearsals there will be limited access available to areas that
are secured, such as TPAC offices and storage areas. Access through the tunnel and
elevator requires all employees to stop at the first floor and proceed through the security
station before advancing to the court and council chambers. Failure to do so may result in

MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the Topeka Performing Arts Center is to foster the performing arts through excellence in programming by
providing for the advancement, promotion, presentation, and development of the arts to meet the diverse cultural and
educational needs of our community.
BACKGROUND
In 1991, the Topeka Municipal Auditorium was transformed into a state-of-the-art performing arts center. The force for
this enterprise was a group of civic-minded individuals and local business owners who were interested in enhancing the
quality of life in the City of Topeka.
The Topeka Performing Arts Center Board of Trustees (TPAC) entered into an agreement with the City of Topeka owner to
manage the venue with the following contractual performance objectives:
1. TPAC will endeavor to annually raise funds to support operations in an amount equal to or exceeding the amount
of operating support provided by the City of Topeka.
2. TPAC will present an annual program of professional touring events, which serves the diverse interests and
patronage of the community.
3. TPAC will produce, present or otherwise operate at least four youth arts-education programs each year.
4. TPAC will provide youth-group discounted ticket programs for school groups and educational groups to attend
TPAC shows, where appropriate.
5. TPAC will make the performing arts Center’s facilities available to local arts organizations at reduced rental fees
and support the presentation of their arts with staffing and services.
6. On or before January 1 of each year, TPAC shall provide the City Council with its preliminary budget for the
following calendar year. The budget shall show projected revenue and projected expenses including, but not
limited to, salaries, advertising or other promotions, operating and capital expenditures.
7. TPAC shall provide quarterly financial reports to the City Council within thirty (30) days after the close of each
calendar quarter. The reports shall detail all revenue including ticket sales and donations and expenditures
including, but not limited to, advertising or other promotional activities, operating and capital expenditures.
On July 1, 2002, the TPAC Board entered into an agreement with VenuWorks (originally named Compass Management)
to provide full management, operational and marketing support for the venue. VenuWorks is the only employee-owned
private management company in the United States, and provides comprehensive management and consulting services
for arenas, theaters and convention centers across the Country.
There are several advantages for a municipal partner or authority board in contracting with private management
including:
1. Reduction of Liability. VenuWorks carries all general liability and liquor related insurance at competitive national
rates, shielding the owner and Board from litigation related to operation of the venue.
2. Human Resources Management. All employees at the facility are VenuWorks employees benefitting from
competitive health benefits and 401K programs, and since VenuWorks employs nationally over 3,500 employees
the venue financials will experience administrative savings in providing tax, benefits and insurance processing.
3. Booking and Programming network. VenuWorks specializes in recruiting nationally touring commercial acts and
conferences to play in secondary and tertiary markets despite fierce competition from surrounding larger
markets and casinos/festivals/fairs.
a. Additionally, a department of the parent company VenuWorks Presents acts as an independent promoter
to purchase talent and play commercial touring acts in underserved markets at little to no financial risk
to venue owners.
4. Sponsorship Development. VenuWorks staff generate millions of dollars in revenue annually by assisting owners
and Boards in obtaining naming rights, sponsorships, pouring rights, and display advertising. VenuWorks
employees additionally participate in local service organizations and seek out private/public partnerships that
are vital to the operation of a community public assembly space.
5. Food and Beverage Services. VenuWorks staff attend food shows and rely on a national pool of talent to ensure
that the latest technologies and trends in food service are being offered in every market, and to ensure that
pricing will meet community expectations.
6. Operational Controls, Systems and Procedures. VenuWorks employees are trained in preventative measures
designed to minimize the risk of injury or damage. Risk management partner Holmes Murphy, along with our
liability insurance company, conduct annual safety assessments for each of our venues. Additionally, VenuWorks
employs a regular system of audit controls to confirm that company procedures ranging from asset management
to cash handling to risk management are being conducted according to best practices.
7. Revenue benefits and cost-savings with national vendor contracts. VenuWorks has national contracts with
vendors that will increase ancillary revenues, for instance through a national partnership with TicketMaster the
largest electronic ticketing vendor in the world and participates in volume discount programs with large national
suppliers to reduce cost of goods and supplies ranging from floor scrubbers to toilet paper to chicken nuggets.
VENUWORKS TERM and ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE

2024, and expires on December 31, 2026, and allows for two (2) optional three-year extension terms subject to mutual

Booking Metrics
• As reported in the last census data, Topeka has a median household income of $40,988 (County) to $49,647
(City). Since almost half of all tickets are sold in the County, these numbers become a benchmark for ticket
pricing.
o Based on the County metric, potential ticket buyer “couples” will have approximately $10,249 annually in
disposable income after 25% is deducted for taxes and another 50% is deducted for living expenses.
$10,249 over 52 weeks comes out to approximately $200 in disposable income per week for each
couple.
• Comedy does well in Topeka as evidenced by record sales from Tom Segura, Eddie Griffin, Chevy Chase, Weird Al,
and other shows from previous years. Comedy booking will continue to be a focus for this market.
• Conservative-type music does well in Topeka as evidenced by religious artists Casting Crowns, and older country
acts including Dwight Yoakum, Sammy Kershaw, and Travis Tritt. Conversely, younger country acts have had poor
attendance including Nashville Nights and Chris Janson each with slow starts at the on-sale. Older Country acts
and Christian music will continue to be a focus for this market because of the age in the market and the lower
ticket prices.
• Some classic rock also does well in Topeka as evidenced by Chicago (the band), Kansas, and Joe Bonamassa,
although Three Dog Night performed at a fraction of what it should have. Artist guarantees for this genre of
music have skyrocketed post-pandemic.
o Chicago played TPAC in 2021 to 1,863 tickets and they grossed $147,892 (average $79 ticket). This
represents an underplay for this artist since the band has averaged 2,889 tickets sold and an average
gross of $226,723 over the last 36 months according to trade magazine Pollstar (see graph below).
o One factor affecting diminished attendance in Topeka is the $79 ticket average, which targets only a
small part of the Topeka demo and drives marketing into a much larger radius.
o The other result of this Chicago underplay in Topeka results in lower profitability for the third-party
promoter purchasing the show and bringing it to TPAC. The difference between 1,863 paid tickets and
2,889 tickets in a larger market comes out to about $30,000 in profit for the promoter based on
VenuWorks experience in other markets.
o If classic rock can be purchased with guarantees in the range of $60,000 - $80,000, then the average
ticket prices will be easily marketed in the Shawnee County market.
o If the TPAC Board can support commercial touring with sponsorship to underwrite the cost of tickets
(i.e.: using sponsorship dollars to cover half or more of the artist guarantee), then larger guarantees can
be sought out and tickets can still be offered to the public at a discounted rate.
• Some children’s and young adult touring does well as evidenced by Blippi and Lindsey Stirling. VenuWorks will
continue to seek out annual children’s programming at affordable guarantees.
The Topeka radio market is also a good indicator of what local residents listen to. According to Google, Topeka has many
top radio stations, including country, rock, and sports stations:
• The Big 94.5 Country: Topeka's top country music station – Tim McGraw, Jake Owen, Morgan Wallen, Keith
Urban. (Currently advertising Chris Janson for TPAC)
• Country 106.9: Topeka's country legends station (older Country)
• KDVV: A classic rock station that plays harder-edged songs from the 1960s, 70s, and 80s (currently advertising
the band Kansas with)
• 580 WIBW: A station that covers sports, agriculture, weather, and talk
• 1490 KTOP: Topeka's sports leader
• The Eagle: A station that plays classic hits – Eagles, Steve Miller, Rolling Stones, Madonna (currently advertising
the band Kansas with)
• Majic 107.7 Topeka: A station that plays today's hits and yesterday's favorites (Hozier, Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga,
Katy Perry, Christina Perri, Sam Smith).
• V100: Topeka's rock leader (Neil Young, Boston, Whitesnake, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, Bon Jovi, ZZ Top)
• 98.5 Jack FM: A station that plays what we want (UB40, BonJovi, Elton John, Sublime, AC/DC, Mellencamp)
While the top station in the market appears to be targeted towards popular Country, the playlist and advertising are
focused on mainstream artists which will not fit in the TPAC venue. Similarly, advertising on the station focuses on large
festivals including Cornstock and Thunder of the Heartland in addition to NASCAR events which TPAC cannot afford to
advertise against. Country 106.9 has been a steadfast and regular partner with TPAC, and we already know this
combination works for selling tickets!
Classic rock stations KDVV, the Eagle, V100, Jack-FM, and Majic 107.7 also primarily play mainstream hits radio and do
not regularly feature artists that would fit in TPAC.
Finally, the trade magazine Pollstar (pollstar.com) offers information about the Top 75 commercial touring artists to
subscribers. Eliminating the top 35 tours grossing over $500,000 per show, we are left with an example of what current
touring shows are available for booking and how the ticket prices fall:

After eliminating the tours with gross ticket sales over $100,000 or ticket prices higher than $50 per head, and those
tours not remotely represented by the radio stations in the market, there are only a small number of popular artists
currently touring that can be sought after to play Topeka in the new year. There are however LOTS of artists available in
the classic Country, Christian and comedy markets which will continue to be a mainstay for the financial success of TPAC.
2024 Year-to-date financial performance
The Topeka Performing Arts Center under VenuWorks’ management has experienced success and has had several
profitable years. VenuWorks was instrumental in securing a Shuttered Venues Operating Grant (SVOG) and Employee
Retention Tax Credit (ERTC)from the Federal Small Business Administration coming out of the COVID pandemic, for which
most municipalities or larger private management companies were not eligible. Following is the financial performance
of the venue over the last several years:

Forecasting through the end of the calendar year shows that the current YTD loss of $(64,505) will be partially made up
by a combination of success with shows remaining in the last quarter, salary reduction due to the Executive Director
absence and departure of the Administrative Assistant in September, and reductions in other expense categories.
Calendar Year 2025
The budget for calendar year 2025 has been formulated with several key factors:
• As of October, staff are projecting a budget deficit of over $36,000 in the current FY year. Due to the program not
making budget, the $25,000 VenuWorks Employee bonus would not take effect, adjusting that deficit to about
$11,000. The construction and remodeling of several areas of the venue will still have an impact on next year’s
use and revenue of the facility. The budget proposed will show a $66,397 shortfall reflecting the impact. This
shortfall will be offset by approved use of the reserve at the onset.
• Launch of a presented season of 6 events in which the first 3 will be in the fall of 2025.
• Initiate a sponsorship program to support the presented season.
• Resume booking of event spaces affected by HVAC renovation in 2023 & 2024
• Adjustment of rental rates in renewed event spaces to reflect upgraded value.
• Renewed interest in TPAC by 3rd party promoters and event planners.
• Additional staffing hired and alignment to match current needs & support increase in event load.
• Necessary upgrades in equipment.
• Increase in Friends of TPAC Membership
• Additional programming and events produced by TPAC such as trade shows.
PROGRAMMING
Launch of a presented season. The Presenting program will be given a brand name that sits outside of the venue name,
such as Topeka Live, TPAC Presents, TPAC Live. The goal is to bring more affordable experiences for the larger population
and bring more activity into the downtown. The season will consist of 6 events. 3 focused towards family participation
with very affordable ticket prices averaging between $22-$32/ticket. 3 focused towards a more adult music experience
with affordable ticket prices averaging between $28-$38/ticket. The lowered average ticket price structure will be offset
by a corporate sponsorship program. This relaunched effort to bring home grown presented events back to the venue
will help increase participation levels in attendance, Friends of TPAC, donors, and downtown merchant sales.
VenuWorks has already booked several shows for the Spring of 2025 including:
• Dragons & Mythical Beasts February 25th
• Joe Gatto February 27th
• Who’s Live Anyway April 1st
• Jerry Seinfeld April 18th
• Sesame Street Live April 23rd
• Several others in negotiations
Aggressively working to attract new touring acts that make financial sense for this market and venue size.
• VenuWorks Presents – Our continued partnership with VenuWorks has continued to bring in events that attract a
variety of audiences: With shows such as, Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer, Lorrie Morgan, Chris Janson, Eddie
Griffin
• Recent years of programing changes and successes have gained attention regionally and nationally from
promoters such as Outback Concerts, Mammoth Productions, Live Nation, WME Presents and more.
• New Lower-Level Event Spaces – The new combined space of the “Blackbox Theatre & Dance Studio” will be a
multi-use facility for rehearsals, small format theatrical performances, small concerts as well as banquet space
with seating for 200+. We will work with small theatrical and comedy groups, Topeka Jazz Series, Senior Recitals,
Traveling Exhibitions, Weddings/Receptions.
Friends of TPAC
• Friends of TPAC membership- a new membership structure with benefits that coincide with the new presenting
series. Guaranteeing the value of the program with the 6 events, will increase participation.
• Brick Campaign – Currently “paused” for re-vamping/re-organizing, this campaign will relaunch with better
direction and a clearer goal. Coordinate with the City of Topeka our exterior upgrade plans with the long-term
plans of the COT.
Youth Programming
• Gingerbread Homes for the Holidays continues with a move in venue though partnership with West Ridge Mall,
this move in 2024 looks to increase our brand awareness and expand our capacity nearly double. (Move
necessary due to ongoing renovation)
• Schooltime Theater - continues with success through partnerships with Kansas Ballet and Topeka Symphony with
over 4,000 students in expected attendance.

Rental Rates
Current 2024 rates see Addendum E.
Our commitment to forging partnerships and collaborations with other local presenting organizations and promoters will
continue. Will continue to educate local event presenters in how to produce a sustainable event. Rental rates will remain
constant for the remainder of FY24 and will be reviewed and updated in FY25 to reflect changes in general costs of
business, adjustment to remain competitive. Although the number of inquiries for weddings and receptions increased
this past year, we have had to turn away several dates as the reception areas cannot be used while the HVAC installation
continues throughout the facility.
Food and Beverage/Catering
Hiring a new Manager with a focus on increasing sales, controlling costs
Further expand the self-serve options, continue elevated staffing to reduce wait times and encourage upselling. Offer
more options at all events, weddings, banquets, and conferences. The addition of a dedicated F&B Manager will allow us
to retain a greater percentage of revenue that is currently being paid to outside vendors. Additionally, there will be the
opportunity to upsell hospitality service in the new event space, increasing revenue.
Sponsorship/Naming Rights
In conjunction with the newly presented season, a sponsorship program will be created with different levels of
participation that reaches the larger population of Topeka businesses. A program built on shared levels that do not have
exclusive benefits. This program focuses on partnerships rather than competition. Sponsors benefit from supporting
programs that provide quality of life experiences for the greater Topeka residents and the residents bring about a
positive Economic Impact for the downtown Topeka merchants.

Explanation of significant changes:
Programming Revenue: Programming projections for outside use of the facility are in line with the actuals of 2024, along
with the addition of the 1st three shows in the fall of the new presenting series.
Fundraising: The decrease compared to the 2024 budget is contributed by the pause on the Brick-by-Brick Campaign.
The focus for 2025 will be to maintain contributions from our current Friends of TPAC and slightly increase the number of
donors by having 4 events dedicated to our Friends.
Occupancy Expense: Equipment and Building Repairs and Maintenance (R&M) has decreased over the last several years
due to purchasing newer equipment and staying on top of proper maintenance. To reflect this trend the 2025 budget
decreases these line items compared to the 2024 budget. However, comparing to 2023 and 2024 YTD actual costs the
2025 budget includes an increase to account for market increases and the unknown. Insurance increased significantly in
July 2024; although, current discussions do not reflect a significant increase next year we are projecting a 25% increase
the 2025 budget as a precaution. Plan for the worst and hope for the best.
Personnel Expense: Full-time staff and support staff will increase by about 25% combined. This is due to the transition of
a new Executive Director, the addition of a F&B Manger, and annual cost of living increases.
Other G&A Expense: The VenuWorks Incentive Bonus projections have been moved to the FT labor line item to
accurately reflect staff bonuses. If there are any naming rights that occur in 2025 then this line item will reflect that
percentage due to VenuWorks.
Programming Expense: Costs for the 2025 budget have been evaluated to better align with current costs and market
trends. The current 2024 profit margin for programming revenue to expenses is 54% and we’re conservatively projecting
a profit margin of 48%.
Capital Program
Currently The City of Topeka (COT) is investing nearly $30 million in the infrastructure of the joint use building that house
city offices, municipal court and TPAC. This includes the replacement of the entire HVAC system as well as many
structural and mechanical repairs. Throughout this project often TPAC operations are affected by reduced room
occupancies, unusable event spaces, displaced administrative and event staff. The final result will be working climate
controls, improved air quality to all spaces, and a much healthier environment for staff and patrons as mitigation of mold
and asbestos are completed.
The HVAC renovation with the additional funds provided by the city of Topeka will allow for reconfiguration of the lower-
level spaces and upgrades in other spaces throughout the facility.
• Combine the Blackbox and Dance studio spaces to create a larger multi-functional event space
• Removal of mirrors from the columns in the Festival Hall
• Upgraded lighting
• AV rough ins for event needs and future enhancements
• Upgraded meeting spaces with modern amenities
• Star Dressing room reconfiguration

TOPEKA PERFORMING ARTS CENTER AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: DECEMBER 5, 2024
PREPARED BY: Daniel Kays, Executive Director
SUBJECT:
Topeka Performing Arts Center Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Presentation and City Contract
RECOMMENDATION:
Presentation for discussion
PRIOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION:
On August 13, 2024 Approved:
1. Shift CIP Spending of $100,000 from 2029-2033 to 2024 Approval (9-0)
PRIOR TPAC COMMITTEE AND BOARD ACTION:
• FINANCE/EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
o Approve Fiscal Year 2025 Budget to move forward for Full Board ratification on
November 22, 2024
• TPAC BOARD
o Approved City and TPAC contract 2025-2026 Approval (11-0 Absent from vote 5)
o As of this report filed, November 22, 2024 Board will vote on the FY2025 budget
STATEMENT ON SUBJECT:
The TPAC Fiscal Year 2025 Budget reflects a year of flexibility and new direction. Given the major facility
upgrades throughout and the continual shifting of resources and room availabilities, TPAC continues to
provide service and programming to the community. This budget reflects the challenges to keep the
building functioning, while realizing there are limitations on what we can confidently expect.
TPAC is taking this opportunity to launch into the presenting world once again. TPAC will be presenting 6
shows in the next season from September 2025 to April of 2026. The first 3 events of the season are
reflected in the approved budget being presented. The goal is to provide quality experiences at
affordable prices. There are too many in our community that cannot afford to come more than once a
season. We want to be a part of the downtown revitalization by being a magnet to the center. Quality
and affordable programs allow more of the Topekan population to participate multiple times
throughout the year. To do this, it will require renewed efforts and partnerships with the greater
business community and rebuilding our volunteer and donor base of support.

16 and provided for in Chapter 5.25 TMC.
17 Section 2. Satisfactory qualifications.
18 The Governing Body of the City of Topeka, Kansas, has considered the legal,
19 character, financial, and other qualifications of the applicant and has found Medevac
20 MidAmerica, Inc., doing business as American Medical Response, hereinafter “AMR,” to
21 be qualified in all respects to own, maintain and operate an ambulance service in the City
22 of Topeka, Kansas, hereinafter “City.” The Governing Body of the City of Topeka finds
23 that public convenience will be promoted and public necessity requires such ambulance
24 service under the terms and provisions of Chapter 5.25 TMC.
25 Section 3. Service.
26 The maintenance and operation of an ambulance service by AMR in the City shall
27 be in accordance with these terms and conditions and performance standards set forth in
28 the current ambulance service contract entered into by AMR and the Board of County

ORD/AMR Franchise Renewal 2025 12/2/24 1
31 the City copies of documents which are required to be filed pursuant to Shawnee County
32 Contract C207-2016.
33 In the event that AMR intends to work toward implementing a community
34 paramedicine program/service, it is the goal of AMR and Topeka Fire Department,
35 hereafter “TFD,” to jointly participate and collaborate in such implementation.
36 Section 4. Franchise grant.
37 Pursuant to the provisions of TMC 5.25.040, a nonexclusive franchise is granted
38 to AMR to own, maintain, and operate an ambulance service within the City. Said
39 nonexclusive franchise is granted through and including December 31, 20242025, and
40 shall vest all rights, privileges and immunities of an ambulance service franchise with
41 AMR; however, said nonexclusive franchise shall be subject to and conditioned upon all
42 of the terms, duties and obligations found in the laws of the State of Kansas, Chapter 5.25
43 TMC, and this franchise ordinance.
44 Section 5. Payments to the City.
45 Consideration for the rights, privileges, and immunities granted to AMR includes
46 the benefits to be derived by the citizens of the City of Topeka from the maintenance and
47 operation of an ambulance service under the terms and conditions of this franchise
48 ordinance.
49 (a) The ambulance service franchise application fee prescribed by TMC 5.10.040
50 has been paid to the City Clerk.

55 ambulance fee for each new AMR ambulance in operation in the City. An ambulance fee
56 for each additional ambulance placed into operation after the initial fee payment is due at
57 the time the additional ambulance is licensed.
58 (cd) Within 30 days of the presentation of an invoice to AMR by the City, AMR
59 shall make payments to the City Treasurer for the following types of assistance:
60 (1) For each TFD response to AMR’s request for a nonemergency lift
61 assist of any patient due to the patient’s weight, AMR shall pay a fee of
62 $200.00250.00 per transport. For purposes of this subsection, “nonemergency”
63 means any request that was not initiated by a 911 call. Any time that such fee is
64 incurred, TFD shall make written request for payment that includes the date,
65 address, and TFD incident number. Upon receipt of the invoice AMR will process

71 respond to such requests within 30 days. Failure to provide the requested information

111 (g) AMR will pursue an option if available to provide TFD command staff
112 designated by the Fire Chief with access to view the availability of all on-duty AMR units
113 in real time. If there is cost directly associated with the development, implementation or
114 annual maintenance of this request, AMR will provide TFD a written estimated of the
115 expense to seek approval for the reimbursement of this request. TFD agrees that any
116 party with access to this system may be required to complete initial and annual training
117 as deemed reasonably appropriate by AMR compliance or other regulatory department

126 Section 8. Acceptance by AMR.
127 Operation of an ambulance service within the City by AMR on or after the effective
128 date of this franchise ordinance constitutes acceptance of the provisions of the franchise
129 ordinance.
130 Section 9. Remedies of City.

132 equity in a court of competent jurisdiction for any violation by AMR of the laws of the State
133 of Kansas or any ordinance of the City.
134 Section 10. Forfeiture.
135 Any material and substantial fraud, misrepresentation or default of the terms,
136 duties and obligations imposed upon AMR by the laws of the State of Kansas, Chapter
137 5.25 TMC or by this franchise ordinance shall constitute grounds for forfeiture of this
138 nonexclusive franchise ordinance. The City shall notify AMR in writing of any allegation
139 of a material and substantial fraud, misrepresentation or default and shall hold a public
140 hearing before the Governing Body of the City of Topeka on the merits of such allegations.
141 Said public hearing shall be held within 30 days after the notification to AMR and shall be
142 adjudicative in character but shall not bar the rights of any parties to pursue judicial
143 review. Within 10 days following the conclusion of such hearing, the Governing Body of
144 the City of Topeka shall act with respect to such forfeiture and shall submit a written
145 statement to AMR. This franchise ordinance shall not be forfeited unless the Governing
146 Body of the City of Topeka finds that there has been a material and substantial fraud,
147 misrepresentation or default on the part of AMR so as to justify a forfeiture. In such case
148 a notice of forfeiture shall be provided to AMR. In the event this franchise ordinance is
149 forfeited, AMR shall, within 180 days of its receipt of notice of forfeiture, cease operation
ORD/AMR Franchise Renewal 2025 12/2/24 6
150 of an ambulance service hereunder.
151 Section 11. Surrender.
152 If, during the term of this franchise ordinance, AMR does not earn a fair rate of
153 return upon the value of property used and useful in providing such ambulance service
154 for a period of six months; and it is determined by AMR that it would not be practical,
155 possible or in the public interest to cure the deficiency by an increase in rates and/or a
156 reduction in service; and AMR has complied with all applicable procedures as prescribed
157 by the Board of County Commissioners of Shawnee County, Kansas including the giving
158 of notice of surrender to the City; then AMR upon 180 days’ written notice to the City Clerk
159 may elect to surrender this franchise ordinance and cease operation of the ambulance
160 service hereunder. “Fair rate of return” means receipt of revenues for patient charges and
161 public funds, if any, to include the sum of operating costs, depreciation reserves, growth
162 and development costs and management fees.
163 Section 12. Transfer.
164 Only upon written approval of the Governing Body of the City of Topeka may the
165 rights and obligations of AMR, pursuant to this franchise ordinance, be transferred to a
166 person meeting the requirements for an ambulance service, as determined by the laws
167 and regulations of the State and the City at the time of the contemplated transfer. Any
168 approved transferee shall, without limitation, assume all the duties and obligations of AMR
169 and AMR shall be released of all future rights, duties, and obligations arising from this
170 franchise ordinance.
171 Section 13. Hold harmless.
172 AMR shall hold the City harmless for all liability, damages, costs and expenses of
173 every kind for the payment of which the City may become liable to any person by reason
ORD/AMR Franchise Renewal 2025 12/2/24 7
174 of the rights and privileges herein granted and, if any action either at law or in equity be
175 brought against the City for damages or for any cost to the City for any fault of AMR, its
176 servants, agents, or employees, in the operation of its ambulance service, AMR shall pay
177 all costs, damages and expenses including costs of defense for which the City may be
178 held liable.
179 Section 14. Re-openers
180 In the event that Shawnee County Contract C207-2016 is materially and
181 substantively amended or replaced by a new contract that is materially and substantively
182 different, AMR and the City may mutually agree to re-open this franchise ordinance before
183 the December 31, 20242025, expiration date.
184 Section 15. Effective date.
185 This franchise ordinance shall take effect and be in force from January 1,
186 20242025, and after its passage, approval and publication in the official City newspaper
187 in the manner prescribed by law, and shall be binding upon AMR upon the conditions set

commission: deeply committed to helping drive our city’s growth and development. I
believe that for Topeka to thrive and become a true destination for future
generations, we must begin by focusing on creating a strong foundation
for the future. This means ensuring that our city’s government is
structured in a way that promotes long-term growth, encourages
innovation, and is responsive to the evolving needs of our residents.
To achieve this, it’s essential that our leadership embraces a forward-
thinking approach, one that not only addresses today’s challenges but
also anticipates and plans for the opportunities and demands of
tomorrow. This includes making smart investments in areas like
infrastructure, transportation, and economic development, while
simultaneously working to address the pressing issues of our current
moment. Issues such as crime, public safety, and the maintenance and
improvement of our existing infrastructure must not be overlooked, as
they are integral to the quality of life for every Topekan.
By focusing on both present needs and future goals, we can create a
balanced approach that ensures Topeka remains a vibrant, thriving
community that attracts new residents, businesses, and investments.
Ultimately, the success of our city depends on our ability to build a
government structure that is adaptable, visionary, and in tune with the
aspirations of both current and future generations. It is this commitment
to progress and improvement that will help Topeka become a place
where people want to live, work, and raise their families for years to
come.

Please state why you are interested in serving on this board or I would like to serve on the Review Committee because this is my
commission: community, having lived here since 1979, and because I have a long
record of service to Topeka. I recently retired from a 40-plus year
municipal law practice. I worked with and for dozens of local
governments across Kansas, seeing the full range of forms of
government--city administrator, city manager, strong mayor, mayor-
council, city commission. I have also seen various electoral
arrangements-councilmembers and commissioners elected by-district
and at-large, and hybrid forms. I am a Kansas native, graduating from
KSU and the KU Law School. I served the League of Kansas
Municipalities as staff attorney, then general counsel in the 1980s and
1990s. That service gave me great experience in understanding how
local governments could best go about protecting and improving the
quality of life of community members.
I served on the Topeka-Shawnee County Metropolitan Planning
Commission from 1992-96 as an appointee of Mayor Felker, on the
Shawnee County Planning Commission from 1996-98, and am presently
on the last year of my second term with the Topeka Planning
Commission (2019-2025). Over the years I have also served on several
advisory committees and task forces for the City, including for the Land
Use and Growth Management Plan 2040.
In the 1990s I was the City's first legislative lobbyist, selected by Mayors
Felker and Wagnon, promoting numerous City legislative initiatives.
As I am retired I am able to contribute the time and energy required for
the Committee. In sum, I have many years of experience directly relevant
to the mission of the Committee, and a demonstrated commitment to
helping make local governments better the lives of the members of their
communities.

11 Section 1. That section 3.40.030, Method of raising revenue, of The Code of

13 Method of raising revenue.
14 (a) The method to be used to raise the funds necessary for the district shall be
15 the levy of service fees upon all businesses located within the district. “Business” means
16 a fixed place of business where one or more persons are employed or engaged in the
17 purchase, sale, provision or manufacturing of commodities, products or services. The
18 ownership of real estate which is unoccupied and which is held for investment
19 purposes, for sale or lease, shall be considered a business. For the purposes of this
20 chapter, the operation of multifamily residential property and the operation of structured
21 parking facilities shall not be considered to be a business.
22 (b) The service fees shall be based upon the location of the business in one of
23 the tier areas located in the map which is incorporated by reference. However, the
24 maximum service fee per business will not exceed $15,000 regardless of the number of
25 square feet or tier area. The service fees assessed shall be as follows:

0 – 999 $60 (all tiers)
1,000 plus (tier one) $.0905 per square foot

1,000 plus (tier two) $.0405 per square foot
Unoccupied Real Estate Rate
Tier One $.04525 per square foot
Tier Two $.0205 per square foot
26 (c) For the purposes of this chapter, the number of square feet of floor area
27 occupied shall be determined as the total area designated for the exclusive use by the
28 owner or tenants expressed in square feet and measured from the centerline of joint
29 partitions and from outside wall faces. In the case of leased property, square feet of
30 floor area occupied is considered that area for which tenants pay rent. In no event shall
31 square feet of floor area occupied include public toilets, corridors, stairwells, elevators,
32 mechanical equipment rooms, lobbies, mall areas, or hotel sleeping rooms. Further, in
33 no event shall square feet of floor area occupied include area which is unusable or is
34 not occupied due to applicable City codes. In the case of a building occupied by a single
35 business, the gross floor area may be reduced by subtracting the actual measured
36 square footage of excluded areas as defined in this section or by subtracting 15 percent
37 of the gross floor area, whichever is greater.
38 (d) Service fees under this section shall be levied for the year 20242025 and
39 shall be due and payable in two semiannual installments. Service fees shall be deemed
40 delinquent if not paid within 30 days of the due date provided for the second semiannual
41 installment.
42 Section 2. That original § 3.40.030 of The Code of the City of Topeka, Kansas,
43 is hereby specifically repealed.
44 Section 3. This ordinance shall take effect and be in force from and after its

47 or portions thereof, which are in conflict with the provisions of this ordinance.
48 Section 5. Should any section, clause or phrase of this ordinance be declared
49 invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the same shall not affect the validity of this
50 ordinance as a whole, or any part thereof, other than the part so declared to be invalid.

Submitted by:
Thomas Underwood, Executive Director
NOTO Arts and Entertainment District
The NOTO Business Improvement District was approved by the City of Topeka Governing Body in 2022 for
formal implementation in 2023. The purpose of the NOTO BID is to provide fundamental services to the
district that otherwise are not provided by local government, specifically in four primary areas: district
maintenance, beautification, safety and security, and marketing.
The NOTO BID boundary is Morse Street to the north, Norris Street to the south, Quincy Street to the east,
and Jackson Street to the west. Withing this geographic area are two tiers, with Tier 1 to the south of
Gordon and Tier 2 to the north. Assessments are based on tier and type of business, e.g., retail versus
warehouse. All businesses are assessed, though businesses established in the area prior to 2008 do not
have to pay the assessment. It was estimated that if every business were to pay the assessment the NOTO
BID revenue would be $17,7255; for only businesses established after 2008 the estimated revenue was
$12,350.
With only the first year as a benchmark, it is difficult to ascertain patterns of compliance. Payments were
very uneven, requiring numerous communications and several invoices throughout the year. One business
did not pay until the very last day of the year. Thus, it was difficult to determine expenditures when
revenue was so inconsistent. Nine businesses who were obliged to pay the assessment did not do so,
resulting in a $3,000 in uncollected assessment revenue.
The final amount collected in 2023 was $10,050. However, due to the uncertainties of collections
expenditures were limited and we closed the year with about $4,000 in unspent funds for rollover.
Assuming a similar amount will be collected in 2024, the total budget for the year is estimated at about
$13,000. In addition to basic maintenance, the primary expenditure planned for 2024 is the repair,
replacement, or removal of banners in the district.
2025 Services
Assuming a 2024 collection of about $10,000, the planned program of services for 2025 will continue to be
fairly basic:
ITEM SERVICES EST.
AMOUNT
District Maintenance Trash service, snow removal $5,800
Beautification New trash cans $2,100
Marketing Repair archway, window clings $1,050
COT Administration 2% of revenue (2025) $200
NOTO Administration 5% of revenue (2025) $500
TOTAL $9,650
Collection Strategies
Despite an open, transparent, and inclusive process in the development of the NOTO BID, a surprising
number of NOTO businesses complained about the new assessment. In its first year, several
communications recounting the history and its purpose were sent, and the advisory board was active in
direct contact. Towards the end of the year a letter from the City Manager was included in an invoice which
did seem to spur a few businesses to pay. Probably the most significant impact on payment was the
implementation of the NOTO Redevelopment Incentive Grant fund, of which payment of the NOTO BID
(post-2008) is required. We will continue to educate the district on the importance of the BID. We also seek
support from the COT in exercising its authority to collect a financial obligation to the City.
Other Revenue
The NOTO organization is a small non-profit entity that provides an array of services for the NOTO district
and the community. Funding for the NOTO organization comes from grants, sponsorships, and donations.
Except in the form of sponsorships or grants for certain events or projects, of which we have received
increasing support this past year, NOTO does not receive Transient Guest Tax for operational costs. NOTO
does not receive any Tourism Business Improvement District funds for operations of Redbud Park which is a
site for free community concerts, public art, and festivals.
Advisory Board
The 2023/2024 Advisory Board included:
• Pedro Concepcion, Wheel Barrel
• Monette Mark, Fire Me Up Ceramics
• Denise Selbee-Koch, Compass Point
• Dave Horn, Donaldson’s Jewelers
• Thomas Underwood, NOTO Arts and Entertainment District
The terms for Pedro Concepcion and Monette Mark have expired and they have chosen not to renew their
appointment. Pending Advisory Board members include:
• Trish McAlister, Decades Garage
• DeAna Morrison, Amused Gallery and Gifts
The NOTO Bid is essential to the continued development of the area. While the amounts collected are
minimal compared to the need, we believe collections will continue to improve as new businesses come to
the district and existing businesses realize its value. Further, the NOTO Redevelopment Incentive Grant
offers a great incentive.

Safety and Security
We are currently in early discussions with TRM to explore what safety and security initiatives might look
like for the district. These conversations are still in their infancy, but we’re optimistic about identifying
effective solutions to enhance the safety and well-being of our community.
Beautification
We are excited to share that we are developing a partnership with Fire Me Up Ceramics to design a
custom trash receptacle that reflects the unique character and spirit of our district. We look forward to
seeing the design come to life and its eventual addition to the district.
Dear Governing Board,
As we look ahead to 2025, I wanted to share how the NOTO Business
Improvement District is placing a strong focus on beautification efforts within
our community. With a total revenue of $10,000 projected for the year, we’ve
carefully allocated funds to ensure that we prioritize creating a vibrant and
welcoming environment for all who visit, live, and work in NOTO.
Here’s how we’re focusing on beautification:
1. District Maintenance
Trash Removal: We’ve allocated $3,200 for weekly public trash receptacle
service, ensuring that our district remains clean and inviting.
Snow Removal: With $2,600 earmarked for snow removal as needed, we
aim to maintain accessibility and safety during winter months.
1. Dedicated Beautification Funds
Trash Can Replacement: We’ve allocated $2,100 to purchase and install
three new trash cans, enhancing both functionality and aesthetic appeal
throughout the district.
1. Marketing and Infrastructure
Archway Lights Repair: $1,050 is set aside for necessary repairs to the
iconic NOTO archway lights, keeping this signature feature as a focal
point of the district.
With these focused investments, we are confident that NOTO will continue to be
a district that our community and visitors can take pride in. The remaining
funds will be responsibly allocated for administration and safety as we ensure
sustainability and thoughtful management of resources.
Thank you for your continued support and commitment to the success of the
NOTO Business Improvement District.
Best regards,
Pedro Concepcion

Project Description:
This program constructs new sidewalks and restores existing sidewalks to provide for continuous compliant pedestrian connectivity that is identified in the Pedestrian Master Plan or through
requests from the public. The program will improve connectivity by extending the network of pedestrian routes in the community and adding to the City's multi-modal transportation system.
Priority projects will focus on the areas identified in the Pedestrian Master Plan. A detailed list of projects is not available due to constant changes in need, priority, and cost.
Project Justification:
The city has identified over 14,000 linear feet of sidewalks categorized as in poor or very poor condition. Entire city network of sidewalks within city limits have not been assessed, so actual
replacement needs will be higher.
History:
For years 2017 through 2021, $3,125,000 was budgeted. A total of $2,482,744 has been spent or encumbered as of 11/01/2021 with $642,257 of spending authority remaining. $214,285 of the
remaining is not allocated.

Project Description:
The Traffic Signal Replacement Program provides for the replacement of traffic signals located throughout the City. The City currently has approximately 186 signalized intersections, and at the proposed
funding levels, 3 signals can be replaced per year. At this pace, the replacement cycle is approximately 60 years. Signals are selected for replacement based on physical condition, operational deficiencies, and
capabilities of electronic components to detect vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians. New systems will incorporate the latest technology and meet the requirements of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
(MUTCD). With the advances in signal technologies and wear and tear on the system (including wind loading), the replacement cycle pushes the useful life of the signal components. The three (3) signalized
intersections tentatively selected for replacement in 2024 are: SW 21st Street & SW Chelsea Street, I-70 eastbound ramps & SE Adams Street, and SE 6th Avenue & SE Golden Avenue. These locations may
change due to unforeseen situations that may arise during 2023 or early 2024.
Project Justification:
This program is part of the routine maintenance that is needed for Traffic Signals. Without it, traffic signal failure is possible which could cause dangerous safety situations. By having proactive replacement, the
City is able to mitigate potential traffic disruptions.

Project Description:
This program is a component of the Topeka DREAMS Neighborhood Improvement Initiatives Program. The City will target a majority of neighborhood infrastructure resources in one redevelopment area or
neighborhood every two years for the DREAMS 1 program. Infrastructure funding invested in this program will allow for improvements in areas such as rebuilding deteriorated streets, curb/gutter, alleys,
sidewalks, and the replacement of impacted wastewater structures. These funds are leveraged with the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership funds that are utilized
for housing rehabilitation ($300,000). The targeted area for 2024 is Holliday Park, where the projects include but are not limited to: housing rehab and demolition, reducing the distribution and density of multi-
family dwellings, replacing substandard brick sidewalks with concrete sidewalks, replacing missing/crumbling curbs, and providing residents with resources to maintain their homes according to minimum
acceptable standards.
Project Justification:
Infrastructure funding invested in this program will allow for improvements such as rebuilding deteriorated streets, curb/gutter, alleys, and sidewalks. Included is a funding component for the replacement of
wastewater structures that are impacted by the improvements.

Project Description:
This program constructs new sidewalks and restores existing sidewalks to provide for continuous compliant pedestrian connectivity that is identified in the Pedestrian Master Plan or through
requests from the public. The program will improve connectivity by extending the network of pedestrian routes in the community and adding to the City's multi-modal transportation system.
Priority projects will focus on the areas identified in the Pedestrian Master Plan. A detailed list of projects is not available due to constant changes in need, priority, and cost.
Project Justification:
The city has identified over 14,000 linear feet of sidewalks categorized as in poor or very poor condition. Entire city network of sidewalks within city limits have not been assessed, so actual
replacement needs will be higher.
History:
For years 2017 through 2021, $3,125,000 was budgeted. A total of $2,482,744 has been spent or encumbered as of 11/01/2021 with $642,257 of spending authority remaining. $214,285 of the
remaining is not allocated.

Project Description:
The Traffic Signal Replacement Program provides for the replacement of traffic signals located throughout the City. The City currently has approximately 186 signalized intersections, and at the proposed
funding levels, 3 signals can be replaced per year. At this pace, the replacement cycle is approximately 60 years. Signals are selected for replacement based on physical condition, operational deficiencies, and
capabilities of electronic components to detect vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians. New systems will incorporate the latest technology and meet the requirements of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
(MUTCD). With the advances in signal technologies and wear and tear on the system (including wind loading), the replacement cycle pushes the useful life of the signal components. The three (3) signalized
intersections tentatively selected for replacement in 2024 are: SW 21st Street & SW Chelsea Street, I-70 eastbound ramps & SE Adams Street, and SE 6th Avenue & SE Golden Avenue. These locations may
change due to unforeseen situations that may arise during 2023 or early 2024.
Project Justification:
This program is part of the routine maintenance that is needed for Traffic Signals. Without it, traffic signal failure is possible which could cause dangerous safety situations. By having proactive replacement, the
City is able to mitigate potential traffic disruptions.

Project Description:
This program constructs new sidewalks and restores existing sidewalks to provide for continuous compliant pedestrian connectivity that is identified in the Pedestrian Master Plan or through
requests from the public. The program will improve connectivity by extending the network of pedestrian routes in the community and adding to the City's multi-modal transportation system.
Priority projects will focus on the areas identified in the Pedestrian Master Plan. A detailed list of projects is not available due to constant changes in need, priority, and cost.
Project Justification:
The city has identified over 14,000 linear feet of sidewalks categorized as in poor or very poor condition. Entire city network of sidewalks within city limits have not been assessed, so actual
replacement needs will be higher.
History:
For years 2017 through 2021, $3,125,000 was budgeted. A total of $2,482,744 has been spent or encumbered as of 11/01/2021 with $642,257 of spending authority remaining. $214,285 of the
remaining is not allocated.

Funds Approved Prior to 2024 Total 2024-2026 3 year CIB: $1,200,000
Project Description:
The Traffic Signal Replacement Program provides for the replacement of traffic signals located throughout the City. The City currently has approximately 186 signalized intersections, and at the proposed
funding levels, 3 signals can be replaced per year. At this pace, the replacement cycle is approximately 60 years. Signals are selected for replacement based on physical condition, operational deficiencies, and
capabilities of electronic components to detect vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians. New systems will incorporate the latest technology and meet the requirements of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
(MUTCD). With the advances in signal technologies and wear and tear on the system (including wind loading), the replacement cycle pushes the useful life of the signal components. The three (3) signalized
intersections tentatively selected for replacement in 2024 are: SW 21st Street & SW Chelsea Street, I-70 eastbound ramps & SE Adams Street, and SE 6th Avenue & SE Golden Avenue. These locations may
change due to unforeseen situations that may arise during 2023 or early 2024.
Project Justification:
This program is part of the routine maintenance that is needed for Traffic Signals. Without it, traffic signal failure is possible which could cause dangerous safety situations. By having proactive replacement, the
City is able to mitigate potential traffic disruptions.

Project Description:
This program is a component of the Topeka DREAMS Neighborhood Improvement Initiatives Program. The City will target a majority of neighborhood infrastructure resources in one redevelopment area or
neighborhood every two years for the DREAMS 1 program. Infrastructure funding invested in this program will allow for improvements in areas such as rebuilding deteriorated streets, curb/gutter, alleys,
sidewalks, and the replacement of impacted wastewater structures. These funds are leveraged with the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership funds that are utilized
for housing rehabilitation ($300,000). The targeted area for 2024 is Holliday Park, where the projects include but are not limited to: housing rehab and demolition, reducing the distribution and density of multi-
family dwellings, replacing substandard brick sidewalks with concrete sidewalks, replacing missing/crumbling curbs, and providing residents with resources to maintain their homes according to minimum
acceptable standards.
Project Justification:
Infrastructure funding invested in this program will allow for improvements such as rebuilding deteriorated streets, curb/gutter, alleys, and sidewalks. Included is a funding component for the replacement of
wastewater structures that are impacted by the improvements.

Project Description:
The Traffic Signal Replacement Program provides for the replacement of traffic signals located throughout the City. The City currently has approximately 186 signalized intersections, and at the proposed
funding levels, 3 signals can be replaced per year. At this pace, the replacement cycle is approximately 60 years. Signals are selected for replacement based on physical condition, operational deficiencies, and
capabilities of electronic components to detect vehicles, bikes, and pedestrians. New systems will incorporate the latest technology and meet the requirements of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices
(MUTCD). With the advances in signal technologies and wear and tear on the system (including wind loading), the replacement cycle pushes the useful life of the signal components. The three (3) signalized
intersections tentatively selected for replacement in 2024 are: SW 21st Street & SW Chelsea Street, I-70 eastbound ramps & SE Adams Street, and SE 6th Avenue & SE Golden Avenue. These locations may
change due to unforeseen situations that may arise during 2023 or early 2024.
Project Justification:
This program is part of the routine maintenance that is needed for Traffic Signals. Without it, traffic signal failure is possible which could cause dangerous safety situations. By having proactive replacement, the
City is able to mitigate potential traffic disruptions.

Project Description:
This program is a component of the Topeka DREAMS Neighborhood Improvement Initiatives Program. The City will target a majority of neighborhood infrastructure resources in one redevelopment area or
neighborhood every two years for the DREAMS 1 program. Infrastructure funding invested in this program will allow for improvements in areas such as rebuilding deteriorated streets, curb/gutter, alleys,
sidewalks, and the replacement of impacted wastewater structures. These funds are leveraged with the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnership funds that are utilized
for housing rehabilitation ($300,000). The targeted area for 2024 is Holliday Park, where the projects include but are not limited to: housing rehab and demolition, reducing the distribution and density of multi-
family dwellings, replacing substandard brick sidewalks with concrete sidewalks, replacing missing/crumbling curbs, and providing residents with resources to maintain their homes according to minimum
acceptable standards.
Project Justification:
Infrastructure funding invested in this program will allow for improvements such as rebuilding deteriorated streets, curb/gutter, alleys, and sidewalks. Included is a funding component for the replacement of
wastewater structures that are impacted by the improvements.

Below is a list of funds that are expected to exceed the original expense authority that was
submitted in October 2023. In each fund list is the fund, the reason, and the projected amount.
1. Topeka Metro Transit Authority: The expense authority needs to be amended due to
higher-than-expected Ad Valorem (Property) Tax collections. As this is a pass-through
fund, the expense authority must be increased to match the higher revenue. Projected
expenditures have risen from $6,365,000 to $6,800,000. More revenues came in because of
past delinquent property taxes and the City exceeding a 95% collection rate.
2. Federal Funds Exchange: The expense authority within this fund needs to be amended
due to projects being switched from GO Bond funding to FFE funding, as approved by the
Council in multiple sessions. The higher expense transfers are supported by a built-up fund
balance from the past few years. Projected expenditures have increased from $3,750,000 to
$3,955,000.
3. Tax Increment Financing (TIFs): TIF revenues are tied to the increase in property values
within the district. As property values rise due to economic development, improvements, or
revitalization within the district, the property taxes generated from those properties
increase. Since TIF revenue is based on the "increment" of new taxes above the baseline
(usually set at the time the TIF was created), the revenue naturally increases as the property
values rise. The fund exceeding expenses means that the City is paying out more to the
developer than initially anticipated due to receiving more in property taxes. The
expenditures have increased from $850,000 to a projected $970,000.
4. Community Development (CIDs): Similar to the TIF account, this amendment is being
requested due to higher-than-expected revenue (in the form of sales tax), which has led to
higher expenses than initially projected for payments to the developer. The projected
expenditures have increased from $1,476,370 to $1,796,370.
5. Information Technology: Due to Polk-Quincy, City Hall, and Tyler ERP projects, there
have been some additional expenses that were unbudgeted. The projected expenditures
increased from $5,970,730 to $6,470,730.
a. Torgeson—$175,000—is for the Polk Quincy Viaduct project damages (from other
utilities moving their lines or vandalism) and splices for moves/additions of fiber
directly due to fiber being in the way of the new planned path.
b. SoftDocs—$100,000 —An unbudgeted one-time cost related to converting and

Topeka, KS 66603 www.topeka.org
migrating documents retained in Perceptive Content incompatible with the new ERP
solution.
c. Microsoft True-Up—$175,000—When updating our licensing needs with
Microsoft, we discovered that the City of Topeka had underpaid for the number of
licenses in use. A “true-up” was required to bring our Microsoft account up to date.
d. VPN Switch—$25,000—The Unplanned purchase of professional services,
equipment, software, and the configuration of a new VPN system due to the existing
system's vulnerability to cyber-attack.
6. Combined Utilities (W, SW, WW): The projected expenditures have increased from
$112,169,218 to $113,669,218. This additional expense will be covered by revenue
collections coming in higher than original expected. In January of 2024 there was a cold
weather event that included broken water mains, a broken chlorine line, and the labor to
make repairs. Reimbursement from FEMA is expected, but is not expected to happen in this
year.
The funds in this amendment had a previous expenditure limit of $130,581,318. These
amendments will increase that to $133,661,318—which is an increase of $3,080,000.

TOPEKA PERFORMING ARTS CENTER (TPAC) COMMON CONSUMPTION AREA
Committee Chair Duncan spoke to the Topeka Performing Arts Center (TPAC) Common
Consumption Area (CCA). When the CCA was introduced the area in front of TPAC was
not included. Since then the TPAC Board of Directors have grown interest in participating.
City Attorney Amanda Stanley stated that after looking closer at the Common Consumption
Area (CCA) it gave the opportunity to review policies concerning the alcohol drinking zone
around 4th Street and Quincy.
Senior Attorney Brandy Roy-Bachman spoke to the recommendation for the boundaries
encompassing the area.
The area amendment proposal is: 4th Street from Jackson Street to Monroe Street; Monroe
Street from 4th Street to 8th Avenue; 8th Avenue from Monroe Street to Quincy Street;
Quincy Street from 8th Avenue to 10th Avenue; 10th Avenue from Quincy Street to Jackson
Street; Jackson Street from 10th Avenue to 4th Street.
Committee member Miller spoke to the positive impact to have the boundary down Monroe
Street.
Committee Chair Duncan reminded everyone that all laws will apply and buildings can set
their own standards to participate. He also spoke to notifying Shawnee County Department
building at 200 SE 7th Street to give a courtesy update of the recommended amendment to the
boundaries.
Presented at the December 10, 2024 Governing Body Meeting
Committee member Hoferer stated she supports the boundaries of Monroe Street.
