first week. Mr. Fitzgerald said they added a third truck because of the bulk items. He also said
they would do more education with citizens, and he would get with the team about e-mails and
phone calls to address issues from the citizens.
Mayor Pro -Tem Pankaj expressed appreciation for CARDS' patience in working with the
City and said he knew this was a little challenging. Mr. Fitzgerald said he, Grayson, Path and
seven others had crowded around at the radio station to get the word out about changes and what
to expect, had provided flyers to all citizens, and Public Information Officer Jon McFadden had
done a great job getting the word out through public media posts. Council Member Kessel asked
if he would go through the process for elderly and disabled citizens who wanted to get front door
service. Mr. Fitzgerald said they would need to call or e-mail CARDS and from there a staff
member would go through a process to determine if they were qualified for front door service.

had difficulty in making contact with CARDS, that they could call his office. Mr. Path reported
the City had over 7,000 accounts. Council Member Pilgrim said he understood there were
growing pains and some folks out there had a pickup load of trash to be picked up. He also said
he hoped that citizens understood that everyone had to follow the rules. Council Member
Pilgrim inquired about the low utility lines. Mr. Path said he had asked CARDS to let him know
of any low utility lines, and that he would contact the utility company.

with platting and the major thoroughfare. He also said the preliminary and final platting sections
Regular Council Meeting
February 12, 2024
Page 5
of the subdivision Ordinance were in compliance but revision of Section VIII General
Requirements pertaining to the Master Thoroughfare Plan was necessary to comply with HB
3699. Mr. Mittge explained the revised subdivision ordinance clarified that dedication of rights-
of-way were limited to existing streets, that the City would not require dedications for future
streets unless intended by the owner, that dedications must be approved and funded portion of a
capital improvement plan, and that construction specifications were still applicable for streets
and roadways in both existing and future streets. Mr. Mittge said the Planning and Zoning

Manager to execute all necessary documents.
City Manager Grayson Path said the City Council previously approved Change Order No.
1, which was for chains and stars. He said Change Order No. 2 before them was a reduction in
costs, and Todd Mittge would explain those changes to them. Mr. Mittge said in the original
contract the north wall of the neighboring property was to be demolished and rebuilt by a
contract at a cost of $94,500.00, but during the demolition project it was determined that the wall
could be retained. He also said retention of the north wall resulted in reduction of the scope of
work and fees, with only minimal work necessary to properly, and safely keep the wall in place.
Mr. Mittge reported the reduction in contract fees in Change Order No. 2 amounted to
$86,850.00, reducing the final demolition contract to $514,650.00. Council Member Kessel
inquired about waterproofing that wall. Mr. Mittge said there were no signs of water seeping
through but out of caution, they had decided to waterproof the wall when the weather is warmer.

Council Member Pilgrim. Motion carried, 4 ayes — 0 nays.

book repairs, new book processing, displays, cataloging, circulation and shelving.
Paula says this has been a great job, with very good experiences.
Audrey asked if there's anything Paula needed in order to make her job easier.
Paula responded, saying that her job is great and she can't think of anything she
immediately needs. Steve asked what was her biggest challenge of the job. Paula
responded, stating that displays can be stressful, stating in the past, she didn't
have a budget so she had to make everything on her own. But now, Connie
offers financial assistance. Connie added that the displays need to be up to date
and fresh. Steve asked if there was any controversy regarding the displays, to
which Paula replied with a previous display that was made to be humorous,
which showed a shirtless man on it. The library received no complaints. There

Technician position will have steps, with an annual increase presented to the
board.
e. September plans for Library Card Signup month
Connie stated that this is a huge event. Board member Kelvin Hicks is getting in
touch with the Director of Adult Services at PJC for ways to sign people and the
library is also interested in setting up tables at the local high schools for library
card sign ups. Steve stated that having a library card signup table at schools
could possibly cause a political issue. Connie responded, stating that parents
would still be required to have a signature for their child's library card. Rob Vine
noted that there would be an official press release, to help the public understand
what the library's goals are. Connie said that she is trying to market audiences
that wouldn't normally come to the library.
Connie also mentioned that she needs a new map drawn for the library, so that
people can see where all of the new areas are in the building.
Connie would like to have an outreach fundraiser with local businesses that are
willing to have designated days that allow for a percentage of the profits to be
given to the library. Connie suggested having bookmarks made with the
business's name on them for participants to take to the location, purchase an
item, and a percentage goes to the library. Connie would like the profit to be put
toward programming.
There is also new programing coming to the library in September, with ASL
certification classes, beginner's sewing, and a Halloween costume swap. Connie
is also adding Comics Plus to the library data base, which will have a large variety
of graphic novels to check out.

that it does.

Usage is at 376, Computer Instruction is at 393, and Online Account Log -ins are

Chairman Steve Hellman at 5:01 p.m.
Board Members Present: Steve Hellmann, Amy Watson, Melanie Loughmiller, Kelvin
Hicks, and Myers Hurt. DeEtte Cobb and Jennifer Cullum were absent. Also present
were Library Director Connie Lawman, Friends of the Library representatives Audrey
Mathieu, and Jeannie Walter, as well as Assistant City Manager Rob Vine.

corrected from "Paula Raider" in IV.b.
With these corrections, Melanie Loughmiller moved to approve the minutes, and Kelvin
Hicks provided the second.
IV. New Business:
Staff Introduction:
Tracy Clark, Children's Librarian: Tracy Clark, the Children's Librarian, introduced
herself. She reported that she has been with the Paris Public Library for 16 and a half
years and is extremely passionate about leading the Children's Library and its programs.
Her typical duties include phone and email customer service, assisting parents,
teachers, and children in navigating the library, creating and implementing programs and
curriculum for the Children's Library, including field trips, educational flyers, and
decorations in the children's room. She also manages the space to ensure it is
decorated, tidy, and clean. Tracy shared some rewarding memories, such as former
children who now remember her as adults. She's very proud of the elimination of
children's book fines and the removal of limits on children's books. Steve Hellman
inquired about the impact of these changes, and Tracy reported increased circulation
and better access for children. She praised Connie's leadership and the support of
volunteers during busy summer months.
Updated Patron Application:
Connie Lawman reported that she streamlined the new Patron application for library
cards by removing details like a second address, age brackets, and the computer
agreement for minors, implementing a "less -is -more" approach. The new city logo is now
prominently displayed at the top right of the half -page sheet. Steve Hellman expressed
concerns about a written password on the sheet, to which Connie mentioned that they
are shifting software that might eliminate this issue later in the year (Atrium vs. Polaris).
Amy Watson moved to approve the new patron sign-up sheet, with Melanie Loughmiller
seconding.
Updated Computer Policy:
The board conducted a thorough review of a Computer Policy crafted by Connie. It was
emphasized that this computer policy differs from the acceptable use policy. Although
the use of the computer lab by unaccompanied minors is infrequent, the necessity of
having documented parental permission on file was highlighted. Steve Vine raised city-
wide concerns, including matters related to cloud -based software and bandwidth
limitations. At present, there are no city -specific concerns regarding the library's use of
either. The discussion also touched upon content filters and brought up concerns related
to cybersecurity, more appropriate for the acceptable use policy when it is discussed.
Connie reported the acquisition of twelve new chairs for the computer lab, underlining
her commitment to making the library's computer lab the "best of the best," considering
it's the only public computer lab in Paris. During the review, the term "parent" was
modified to "guardian," and minor formatting issues were addressed. The updated policy
was motioned for approval by Amy Watson and seconded by Myers Hurt.
Children's Room Project:
Connie presented her vision for the children's section of the library, emphasizing the goal
of revitalizing the space while preserving the historical significance of the building. A key
aspect of this vision is the introduction of mobile shelves, which would be both robust for
safety and of a lower height to ensure clear visibility of children throughout the area,
enhancing safety further. These movable shelves would provide flexibility for
accommodating larger groups when needed. Additionally, the plan involves refreshing
the space with new paint, murals, artwork, blinds, updated flooring, and a selective
curation of the collection to reduce the strain on staff and enhance patron utilization.
Further enhancements include the inclusion of iPads for library catalog access and
offline educational computers from AWE. No motion for action on this discussion item
was taken.
Tour:
A tour of the library was offered, but all board members present felt that they were all
very familiar with the library and declined.
V. Friends of the Library Report:
Audrey reported that the Friends board met with Connie earlier today to discuss specific
wish list items for the remaining quarter and will discuss specific line items with the
remaining members. Jeannie reports the financials remain sound with approximately
sixteen thousand dollars in the account.
Vl. Director's Remarks:
Connie plans on attending the John Biggers painting event in Abilene at the Grace
Museum. Statistics and financials reviewed, $744,593.51 was spent of the $767,205.00
budgeted. The new budget begins on October 1st. Over 100 new library card
applications were completed this month. Circulation was down 8.8% compared to
September 2022.
Motion to adjourn made by Steve Hellmann at 5:45pm, seconded by Melanie Loughmiller. The
next meeting of the Paris Public Library Advisory Board will be held on Wednesday, October 18,

book in the Interlibrary Loan system is the most popular, Jerry replied, stating that
everything in the world is popular. Audrie asked if Jerry can buy books
throughout the year, to which Connie responded that they purchase books all year

books in a series. Connie responded that the library would run a report.

everyone could meet.
c. Computer Lab Upgrade
The library Computer Lab underwent an upgrade, which Connie noted that all of
the visitors are happy with. The computers are all uniform, have 24" screens, and
are much faster than the previous models. The city IT department will maintain
the updates that are anticipated to occur every few years and monitor the user
activity. Connie is very thankful to the City, for allocating funds toward the
Computer Lab improvement. Next, she would like a television placed on the wall,
showcasing the different databases that the library subscribes to.
V. Friends of the Library Report
a. Wish List: Connie met with the Friends and provided a Wish List for the library.
She would like a streaming service, to re -do the carpeting and concrete in the
gallery, and improve the lighting and security outside. The Friends are working
with Art Stutsman and Light Up Paris to place lights in the tree out front. Audrey
said that the city will need to remove four limbs from the tree, but Connie said
that service would be included in the lawn service maintenance contract the
library already has. The concrete staining would be a 3 -day project and the library
would need to time a closing so that the smell would dissipate. It is possible that
some dates in December may work for this project. Audrey noted that $100 is
being donated to help beautify the outside area of the library. Connie noted that
the lawncare service includes plants.
b. Story Book Walk: Jeannie Walters stated that the projected location for the Story
Book Walk will is at Bywaters Park this year. The board discussed posting

locations around the city.

Braille program, in which the library can receive finding to post walkalong book
signs, with braille on them. Jeannie wasn't certain if there would be copyright
issues. Connie stated that as long as there isn't any altering of the information, it
would be permissible.

and that it takes away from the building. Connie stated that the United Way made

Paris Public Library, Louise has been working here since before the addition and
has worked with at least 7 directors with various methods of running the library.
Steve asked how has the library changed, which Louise said that it has changed a
lot. There used to be a card catalog, which students learned how to use, the
library used to show films on Saturday mornings using the 16mm projector.
All board members agreed that the library wouldn't be the same without Louise,
b. Seed Library:
The Lamar County Master Gardeners reached out to Connie, in hopes of starting

V. Friends of the Library Report
a. Storybook Walk
The Friends are working on finalizing the process. They have yard signs and will
place them at Bywaters Park. The book selected was The Not So Very Merry
Pout -Pout Fish by Deborah Diesen.
b. Tree Lighting Update:
Audrey and Rob Vine commented, stating that there was an arborist assessing
the health of the tree. It's a Heritage Tree so a valuable part of the library, but
still may have to come down. Audrey noted that safety is an issue if the tree is
not healthy enough to keep from being a hazard to people coming to the library.
c. Flooring Update:
Jeannie said that the flooring project is moving along and measurements have
been made.
d. Newsletter:
The newsletter went out in October for all members of the Friends. DeEtte asked
how many members there were, which Jeannie replied, stating between 85-90.
The average donation is about $100, and the funds will be used to pay for
programs.
VI. Director's Remarks:
a. Team Building:
Connie said that the employees would have a team building activity at the PTX
Studio after library hours, to make something as a group.
b. Beginner Typing:
Audrey provided Connie with the idea of a beginner typing class for children
aged 9-12. This would have to take place in the Computer Lab, so scheduling is
still being worked on, with hopes of starting this in January.
c. Library Remodel:
Steve asked for an update on the library remodeling process. Connie said that
she is working on a survey that will be released to the public, with Tracy, Ron,
and Rob all previewing the information on the survey. Steve asked for the Library
Advisory Board to be included in the process of creating the survey. Connie said
that the survey will go out to all of the public, and Steve replied that he would
like the data collected on the survey for the advisory board to review.
Connie noted that the library is struggling to progress from the feel of the
libraries ofthe '90's and there is limited space. Melanie added that it can be a
challenge to go through the process of weeding out old books, in order to have
enough space. Audrey replied, stating that the building next door is needed, to
help alleviate the space issues.
Connie stated that it's important to keep up with the times and that Tracy has a
lot of current books but not enough space.
Steve was concerned about the circulation was cut in the Children's Department,
because it's the biggest portion served in our library. Connie stated that about
25% of the books in the Children's Department would be culled. She also noted
that in order for a book to be culled, it would have to be on the shelf for 3 years
without being checked out to qualify. Rob noted that the book removal process
is driven by data. Audrey also stated that the purged books would go to the Book
Sale up front. This could be a huge fundraising event.
VI 1. Statistics and Financials Report:
a. Statistics
Physical books in circulation for October 2023 were similar to that of October
2022. Volunteer hours and programs have doubled from 2022.

MINUTES OF THE
TAX INCREMENT REINVESTMENT ZONE (TIRZ) BOARD MEETING
OF THE CITY OF PARIS, TEXAS
JANUARY 22, 2024
1. Call meeting to order.
Deputy City Manager Robert Vine called the meeting to order at 3:03 p.m. Those also
present were Mayor Pro -Tem Mihir Pankaj, City Manager Grayson Path, City Attorney
Stephanie Harris, PEDC Director Maureen Hammond, City Clerk Janice Ellis, Fire Chief
Thomas McMonigle, Main Street Manager Cheri Bedford, Cody Head and Brandon Bell.
2. Citizens' input.
No one spoke during citizens' input.
3. Discuss the purpose of the TIRZ Board.
Mr. Vine said the purpose of the board "was to promote development of the area if the
governing body of the City determines that development would not occur solely through private
investment in the reasonable foreseeable future, that the zone is feasible, and that creation of the
zone is in the best interest of the City and the property in the zone. The purpose of the zone is to
facilitate such development by financing the costs of public works, public improvements,
programs, and other projects benefiting the zone, plus other costs incidental to those expenditures,
all of which costs are authorized by the Act." Mr. Vine read a list of the specific projects allowed.
Mr. Path said the focus of TIRZ was the downtown area, as written in the Bylaws.
4. Review the TIRZ Bylaws.
Mr. Vine inquired if the Bylaws needed to be revised to include the changes outlined in the
2023 Ordinance. Ms. Harris said they could do so, but that it was a cleanup with regard to the
map. Ms. Harris said the board of directors were to review the project plan and the finance plan
and make recommendations to the City Council.
Mr. Path brought to the Board's attention that the Bylaws and said the City Council selects
the Board Chair and the Board selects the vice -chair. He also said the Community Development
Director position was vacant and that Rob Vine would be heading up the Board until that position
was filled. He also said that Ms. Bedford would be the Staff Liaison to the Board. He said that
Mr. Vine would be bringing forward projects to the Board for review and recommendations, but
that if any Board Member wanted to bring something forward to contact Mr. Vine.
5. Review the Ordinance approving the Final Project Plan & Reinvestment Zone Financing
Plan for Reinvestment Zone Number One.
Mr. Path reminded everyone that the base year began with the 2019 assessed property
values and that the City receives 50% and TIRZ receives 50% of city ad valorem taxes attributable
to the incremental increase in valuation over the base year value. Ms. Hammond inquired if this
would prohibit industries from getting tax abatements. Ms. Harris said it would not and Mr. Path
said he would recommend tax abatements for future industry. Board Member Cody Head said
the funds collected from TIRZ should be shared between industry and downtown.
6. Review TIRZ Balance Sheet.
Mr. Path reported as of this date, the fund contained $159,079.05.
7. Discuss future meeting dates and times.
The Board discussed meeting dates and times and it was a consensus to meet on the second
Thursday of each month at 3:00 p.m. in the City Council Chambers.
8. Request for future agenda items.
Ms. Harris said she would be bringing an annual report to the Board for review and

City of Paris
January 2024 Financial Report Comments
Net to Date Comparison of Revenues:
1. The operations and maintenance property tax and related collections reported are 1.81% more than
what was reported in 2023. Current tax collections this year are 86.04% of the tax levy vs. 84.51%
last year.
2. Sales taxes are up 3.65% from last year ($125,143).
3. Hotel occupancy taxes are up 31.51% compared to last year (131,653).
4. Franchise fees are down 3.41% compared to last year ($37,239). This is due to a significant decrease
in the payment from Atmos.
5. Permit fees are up 72.15% from last year ($128,430). This increase is due to new commercial
permits.
6. Municipal Court fines and related fees are down 31.08% compared to last year ($26,589).
7. Other revenue includes leases, interest, copy fees, birth & death certificates, library fees, mixed
beverage tax, and other minor revenues. This revenue is up 44.81% ($217,281). This is due to
higher interest income and miscellaneous revenue.
8. Sanitation fees are down 9.94% when compared to 2023 ($7,494).
9. EMS fees are up 6.91% compared to last year ($80,125).
10. Total General Fund revenues are up 5.24% compared to last year ($738,812). General Fund
revenues equal 51.39% of the budget with the City being 33.33% through the budget year.
11. Total General Fund expenditures are up 1.92% ($170,474) compared to last year. General Fund
expenditures to date equal 29.06% of budget with the City being 33.33% through the budget year.
12. Sewer revenue was up 19.74% ($600,887).
13. Water revenue was down 4.65% ($144,258).
14. Other revenue sources are up 75.32% ($117,833). This is primarily due to charging off Rt. 40
accounts last year that were beyond statutory limitations for debt collections.
15. Total Water & Sewer revenues, ignoring transfers and adjustments, are 9.12% above last year
($574,463) and represents 32.73% of the total budget.
16. Total Water & Sewer expenses are 8.10% above last year ($286,795) at this point and represent
18.22% of the total budget (37.18% adjusted for debt payments.) while the City is 33.33% through
the budget year.
Departmental Expenditure Summary:
At this point the City is three months or 33.33% through the budget year. It is important to remember
that expenditures do not occur equally throughout the year. For example, capital expenditures and
association memberships are one time expenditures that if made early in the fiscal year can produce a
distorted expenditure percentage. Within the General, Water & Sewer, Airport, and Sanitation Funds
there were three departments whose expenditures were over 33.33%.
1. Garage -34.15%. The overage amounts to $3,309 and was due to the annual insurance
payment, IT costs, stability pay, and sick sell back pay.
2. Library -42.21%. The overage amounts to $79,903 and was caused by supplies, technical
processing, annual insurance payment, travel, furniture, credit card fees, and maintenance
agreement.
3. Warehouse -33.61%. The overage amounts to $349 and was caused by the annual insurance
payment and vehicle maintenance.
General comments to the City Council:
1. Over 99% of all of the City operational activity takes place in the General Fund, the Water &
Sewer Fund, or the Sanitation Fund. The other funds are special purpose funds with limited
activity and usually with legal restrictions on what their money can be spent on. For that reason,
I normally only comment on the activity of the General Fund, Water & Sewer Fund, and the
Sanitation Fund. However, if circumstances merited it, I would make comment on activity in one
of the other funds.
2. 1 try to anticipate questions you might have about the report and comment on those points.
After you receive your packet and review the monthly report, if you have questions about the
report, please let the Manager know (or me if you can't reach the Manager) before the Council
meeting if possible in case I have to research the answer to your question. That does not
prevent you from asking the question at the meeting if you wish to make a point, but it does
help prevent questions coming up that I can't answer on the spot and possibly delaying the
Council in making a decision.
3. The activity of the Paris Economic Development Corporation is reflected in the monthly report.
This is a result of the City performing the bookkeeping functions for this agency. PEDC has its
own managing board.

Memorandum
TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem & City Council
FROM: Grayson Path, City Manager
SUBJECT: Waiver of a portion of the Paris Housing Authority 2023 PILOT
DATE: February 26, 2024
BACKGROUND:
On March 7, 1950, the City of Paris and the Paris Housing Authority (PHA) entered in to an
agreement that in essence created the PHA within the City. In short, the PHA agreed to provide
the services they do, and the City would fulfill initial roles in the agreement to make them
successful. Those initial roles by the City have all been fulfilled, but our continued goal is their
success on behalf of our residents who are income -eligible to live in these facilities. A term of the
agreement is the PHA would issue a "Payment In Lieu of Taxes" (PILOT) in the place of property
tax. This is calculated by formula from HUD. Some years the City receives a payment, some years
we do not. We have seen the PILOT range from $0 to $10k each year. Again, the purpose of a
PILOT vs. standard property tax is to decrease their cost so that they can divert more Federal Funds
to assisting residents with low cost living arrangements, while still providing some compensation
to the city for basic services we provide these residents (like all other city residents) such as Streets,
Parks, Recreation, Police, Fire, EMS, etc. The PISD, County and PJC all receive a PILOT through
the City proportionate to each entity's tax levies.
In August 2021, the City initiated a project to convert the PHA's Booker T Washington and George
Wright locations to 911 -based addressing. Prior to this, both sites had non -conforming addressing
unique and specific to their sites which created conflicts for our first responders. Working with the
Arkansas -Texas Council of Governments (ATCOG) who manages our 911 -addressing, as well as
the PHA management, we were successful in updating their addressing. When seconds matter in
an emergency, this change allowed for much faster responses. It also had the secondary added
benefit of assisting residents with deliveries.
The PHA set out to perform the physical changes needed to conform to the new 911 -addressing,
mainly new signage. They completed some of this in 2022.
STATUS OF ISSUE:
The PHA was informed in June 2023 that their outward facing structures still needed physical
addressing changes visible from the road, as well as monument signage within their complex to
complete the changes. This was initially missed by the PHA in 2022. They have since then
performed this work and have amassed expenses they had not budgeted for. As this was a City -
initiated project for public safety, the PHA once again requests that the expense tied to this work
be taken from the PILOT the city expects to receive. To our knowledge, no waiver request is being
made of PJC, PISD or Lamar County.
A waiver of the 2021 PILOT (2022) in the amount of $4,000.00 was granted by the City Council
on March 28, 2022, for their first round of expenses. No waiver was requested for the 2022 PILOT
(2023). The PHA is now requesting a waiver of $5,177.75 from their 2023 PILOT (2024) for
expenses accrued with this latest round of addressing changes.
To our knowledge, the waiver in 2022 was the first the City has ever granted to the PHA. As was
stated then, the City Manager is aware that some communities do allow waivers for case-by-case
appropriate reasons. In addition, there have been years when the City would receive no payment
under the HUD formulas, so it is not unheard of to receive nothing. We would however only waive
the City's portion of the PILOT, not the other taxing entities.
The intent and spirit of agreements between Housing Authorities and Cities is to create a housing
opportunity for residents of extremely low income levels. The City itself does not finance any of
these expenses; that is performed by HUD. Nevertheless, it is the intent that the City cooperate
with the PHA to assist with their overall mission.
BUDGET:
To our knowledge, the 2023 PILOT to the City is $9,460.44. The total request for waiver is
$5,177.75 to cover known expenses as itemized below:
1. SCS Graphics — Monument Signs $4,340.00
2. Forrest Signs — Street / Directional Signs on Buildings $795.25
3. Forrest Signs — Same as above $42.50
4. Total $5,177.75
The remaining balance of $9,460.44 - $5,177.75 = $4,462.69 would still come to the City.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve a resolution waiving a portion of the City's 2023 PILOT in the amount of
$5,177.75 for non -budgeted expenses tied to address changes for the Paris Housing
Authority.
2. Approve a resolution waving a different amount of the City's 2023 PILOT, up to the
maximum available of $9,460.44.
3. Request additional information to be brought back to the City Council for consideration.
4. Do not approve of a waiver of the City's 2023 PILOT.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve a resolution waiving a portion of the City's 2023 PILOT in the amount of
$5,177.75 for non -budgeted expenses tied to address changes for the Paris Housing
Authority.

RE: Waiver of PILOT ^
Dear Mr. Path,
The Board of Commissioners of the Housing Authority of the City of Paris requests that a
portion of the annual PILOT (Payment in Lieu of Taxes) be waived for the FYE 06/30/2023 to
offset the cost of signage required by the 2021 address change of properties.
This request is being made to counter the costs incurred of the additional signage due to the
address changes that the City of Paris mandated for the properties of George Wright Homes and
Booker T Washington Homes. The calculated PILOT is $9460.44(please see attached). The
actual signage costs are $5177.75 (invoices attached). In addition, the administrative costs
incurred to procure and place signage. The total costs of the signage required by the City, is an
expense that was not budgeted. It would be beneficial if the costs could be restored by the
waiver of our annual PILOT.
We respectfully request the waiver of the PILOT for the FYE 06/30/2023. On behalf of the 234
families residing in these properties, I would like to express my sincere appreciation for this
consideration.
Your commitment to supporting affordable housing for our community's lowest income families
is commendable. Thank you for your assistance and support as we have worked to comply with
the requirements of this address change.
Sincerely,
)�Lqzw�� A14/9

Memorandum
TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, and City Council
Grayson Path, City Manager
FROM: Stephanie H. Harris, City Attorney
SUBJECT: Return of Funds to the Cecil Foundation
DATE: January 22, 2024
BACKGROUND: As you may recall, in December of 2021, concurrent with the RAM
Foundation's (RAM) donation of $300,000.00 to the city for the use in the city's HOME program
to further RAM'S program of making affordable housing available to the city's residents, the
Philip and Sally Cecil Foundation, Inc. (Cecil) made a donation of $200,000.00 for the same
purpose. In conjunction with that donation, the parties entered into a memorandum of
understanding (MOU) which provided that the city would continue its annual funding for the
program and would exhaust those budgeted funds prior to accessing the donated funds. The MOU
also provided that after the expiration of three years, Cecil would be able to review the use of the
donated funds, and, if less than half of the funds had been used, recoup all of the unused funds.
STATUS OF ISSUE: Since the city's acceptance of the donation and the execution of the MOU,
the city has not had occasion to tap into the donated funds for the stated purpose. Cecil has allowed
funds to go towards the city's current housing study, in the amount of $33,210.00. Given that none
of those funds have been used for the original purpose in the last 2+ years, Cecil has requested that
the balance of the donation be returned for use in other projects.
On January 22"d, the Council agreed to a similar request for a return of a portion of the RAM
donation. At that time, Council approved a revision to the MOU with RAM provided for partial
return of funds and set up the mechanism by which such requests will be handled. In this instance,
since the MOU is not a binding legal document and as Cecil has requested a return of the balance
of the funds in excess of the $33,210.00 committed to the housing study, there is no need to amend
the agreement. I have prepared the attached resolution for your consideration to serve as
documentation of the return of funds for accounting and any other necessary purpose. The amount
to be refunded will be $166,790.00
BUDGET: No impact.
RECOMMENDATION: Move to approve a resolution authorizing the return of $166,790.00 of
the Philip and Sally Cecil Foundation, Inc.'s 2021 $200,000.00 donation.
RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PARIS, TEXAS,
APPROVING THE RETURN OF A PORTION OF A $200,000.00 DONATION
FROM THE PHILIP AND SALLY CECIL FOUNDATION, INC. IN THE AMOUNT
OF $166,790.00; MAKING OTHER FINDINGS AND PROVISIONS RELATED
TO THE SUBJECT; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, in December of 2021, the Philip and Sally Cecil Foundation, Inc. ("Cecil") donated
the sum of $200,000.00 (the "Cecil funds") to the City to assist in alleviating the need for affordable
housing within the corporate limits of the City through the administration of the HOME programs;
and
WHEREAS, since that time, Cecil agreed to the application of a portion of those funds to be
applied towards the cost of a city-wide housing study; and
WHEREAS, on December 13, 2021, the City Council of the City of Paris, Texas accepted Cecil's
donation by Resolution No. 2021-049; and
WHEREAS, to date, a portion of the Cecil funds in the amount of $33,210.00 has been applied
towards the cost of said housing study; and
WHEREAS, to date, the City has not had occasion to access the Cecil funds for the HOME
programs; and
WHEREAS, Cecil has requested the return of the balance of the Cecil funds to have available
for use in the community for other projects; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the request and finds the return of the balance of
the Cecil funds to be in the best interest of the City's residents;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PARIS,
TEXAS:
Section 1. That the findings set out in the preamble to this resolution are hereby in all things

SUBJECT: Material Bids for Water Line Looping Projects
DATE: February 26, 2024
BACKGROUND:
Looping water lines is a means to accomplish the elimination of dead-end mains. This is a priority
in water distribution systems, for the primary purpose of enhancing water quality, as deterioration
of quality due to stagnation in looped systems is less likely to occur. In addition, looping water
lines benefits fire protection through improved flow and minimizes water loss by reduction of
dead-end main flushing schedules.
As part of the FY22/23 Budget, the City Council authorized a large looping project in west Paris
at and near our Gene Stallings Business Park to loop existing residential and industrial clients who
were on single lines as well as making our Gene Stallings Business Park site ready for economic
development expansion. This project has commonly been known as the Water Line Extension and
Redundancy Project in previous reports by the City Manager and was paid for by ARPA funds.
Most of that work has been completed, by our City CIP crew, however a portion of this was
postponed and materials transitioned to assist the PEDC and Lionshead with the pursuit of the
EDC Grant and providing a loop in the Northwest Industrial Park, servicing the Lionshead project
(currently under construction). Therefore, there is a need to continue our original project in the
Gene Stallings Business Park.
Having started the Water Line Extension and Redundancy Project, this gave city staff an
opportunity to examine other parts of our water system, looking for opportunities to extend and/or
improve our service. Staff identified three (3) water line looping projects for consideration and
presented these to City Council on December 11, 2023.
1. Pine Mill road, from west of 42nd Street NE to east of NE Loop 286
2. SE Loop 286, from east of 6`" Street SE to west of South Collegiate
3. Gene Stallings Industrial Park, from west of 1911' Street SW to west of SW Loop 286
These projects were estimated to cost $507,936.96, based upon cost of the materials needed for
completion. City Council unanimously approved these three (3) water line looping projects at the
December 11, 2023 meeting.
STATUS OF ISSUE:
Staff coordinated with Charles Edwards, Resource Management & Consulting Co., our third party
administrator for American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding, for advertisement of bids to obtain
actual material costs. Bids were received, and opened, on Friday, February 16, 2024, at 2:00 PM.
Three (3) vendors submitted bids, Feguson Waterworks, Inc. - $433,976.57; Apsco Supply -
$433,332.99; and Core & Main, LP - $430,970.42. The low bid of $430,970.42 from Core & Main
LP is $76,966.54 less than the original estimated costs of $507,936.96. Funding of the material
will be made with ARPA funds and the $250,000.00 reimbursement received from the Lionshead
Project. The City CIP Department will perform the vast majority of this work, saving the city a
tremendous amount in contractor labor, thus making these projects possible.
BUDGET:
The three (3) water line looping projects material costs are $430,970.42, to be funded by the
$250,000.00 Lionshead Project reimbursement and ARPA funds. These projects were not included
in the FY23/24 Budget, however we have available ARPA funds, plus the reimbursement from
Lionshead, to cover the costs.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve the low bid of $430,970.42 from Core & Main, LP for material to be used in three
(3) water line looping projects.
2. Request additional information and/or deny the low bid of $430,970.42 from Core & Main,
LP for material to be used in three (3) water line looping projects.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve the low bid of $430,970.42 from Core & Main, LP for material to be used in three
(3) water line looping projects.

Memorandum
TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro -Tem and City Council
Grayson Path, City Manager
FROM: Duke McGee, Building Official, Assistant Director Community Development
SUBJECT: Conduct a public hearing and take action regarding the petition of Faviola C.
Dimas for a zoning change from a One -Family Dwelling District No. 2 (SF -2) to
a One -Family Dwelling District No. 3 (SF -3) in the Westview Addition, Block
A, Lots 7R and 8R, LCAD 20605 and 130518, located at 1824-1834 W Houston.
MTG. DATE: February 26, 2024
BACKGROUND
Faviola C. Dimas is requesting a zoning change from SF -2 to SF -3. The applicant desires to
construct single-family residents on these lots. As the zoning for these properties is SF -2, the
proposed lots would not meet minimum width requirements (60ft).Therefore, a zoning change
to SF -3 and/ or a variance addressing the lot width is required before a building site can be
approved.
ANALYSIS
The land to the East is zoned SF -3 and guided for Low Density Residential.
The land to the West, North and South is zoned SF -2 and guided for Low Density Residential.
A zoning change to SF -3 would address the lot width and allow for the lots to be developed.
Any remaining none conformity in width could be addressed administratively. The lots are
currently being replatted and this zoning change is a condition of that process. All
improvements to the lot shall conform to the standards required by the City of Paris.
INPUTS
Staff has not received any input forms in support of or against the zoning change from property
owners within 200 -ft of the subject property.
P & Z RECOMMENDATION
P&Z Voted 4-0 to approve the zoning change from One -Family Dwelling District No. 2 (SF -2)
to One -Family Dwelling District No. 3 (SF -3) District.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the zoning change from One -Family Dwelling District No. 2 (SF -
2) to One -Family Dwelling District No. 3 (SF -3) District.

Item No. 19
TO: City Council
Grayson Path, City Manager
FROM: Stephanie H. Harris, City Attorney
SUBJECT: Disannexation Request -660 and 680 CR 32900 (LCAD Parcels 50055 and
50056)
DATE: February 26, 2024
BACKGROUND: The City has received an application for disannexation from Brandon and Kara
Bond for the parcels set forth above. This is Mr. and Mrs. Bond's second application for
disannexation of this property. Mr. and Mrs. Bond submitted the previous application in May of
2021, and Council denied it on May 24, 2021 via Resolution No. 2021-016 (see attached).
The application requests that the City Council consider disannexing their property located at 660
and 680 CR 32400 (LCAD Parcels 50055 and 50056—see attached maps for location of the
property) for the following reasons:
--NO WATER
--NO SEWER
--NO FIRE PROTECTION
--NO POLICE PROTECTION
This is a variation of the grounds alleged in the 2021 application,' and the applicants have not
alleged any changes of circumstances between the first application and the filing of the second
application.
STATUS OF ISSUE: The only services not currently available to property owners to the property
are water and sewer, and there are no plans at this time to extend water and sewer to this area.
Water service provided by the Lamar County Water Supply District is available. The City does,
in fact, provide police and fire coverage, and trash collection is available as a rate paying service.
(The property is undeveloped at this time.) Regardless, the property does not meet the City's
1 The 2021 application also alleged lack of city services:
Property owners are required to pay city taxes but receive no city utilities. Property is on county water and
septic. Property is located on a county road that is not maintenanced by the city. Furthermore property
owners are required to pay city trash fees but are not provided with trash pickup. Nothing about said property
is maintenanced or provided for by the City of Paris.
criteria for considering disannexation because (a) this is a request by a single property owner for
two contiguous parcels; and (b) disannexation of the property would create a keyhole within the
City limits.2
Moreover, Tex. Loc. Gov. Code Sec. 43.057 provides that if the annexation (or disannexation—
the procedures for disannexation should be consistent with those for annexation—Tex. Loc. Gov.
Code Sec. 43.142) would create a keyhole, the governing body must find that surrounding the area
is in the public interest.3 Disannexing this property is does not appear to be in the public interest.
Should Council wish to undertake disannexation proceedings with respect to this property, the
following procedure will need to be followed:
February 26, 2024—City Council Meeting—The City Council will discuss the petition and
determine whether or not to proceed. If Council wishes to proceed, it should consider and act upon
the accompanying resolution authorizing the disannexation process. Should Council wish not to
proceed, it should consider and act upon the accompanying resolution declining to proceed. This
is in the discretion of the Council. If Council determines to proceed, from here, the entire process
must be complete within 90 days. If council determines not to proceed, there will be no further
action on the petition.
If Council chooses to proceed:
February 27—March 7, 2024—The city attorney will send out notices to other taxing entities,
service providers, and railroads as necessary, which must be done by 30 days before the first of
two public hearings.
March 19-29, 2024—Publish notice of first public hearing in the Paris News (publication must
be between the 20"' and the 10"' day out from the 1St public hearing).
April 2— 12, 2024—Publish notice of second public hearing in the Paris News (publication must
be between the 20th and the 10"' day out from the second public hearing).
April 8, 2024—City Council Meeting -1St public hearing (public hearings must be held between
the 40th and 20"' days out from action on the ordinance to disannex)
April 22, 2024—City Council Meeting2" d public hearing
'- "The City will consider disannexation of any area within its corporate limits if so requested by a majority of the
property owner(s) .... and if. The proposed disannexation is part of an identifiable, logical whole (versus individual
parcels) which neither creates 'holes" inside the existing corporate limits, nor forces any other area of the city outside
the revised city limit boundary line (`islands' outside the revised lines)." Policies and Procedures p. 16. [Italics added.]
3 "If a proposed annexation [disannexation] would cause an area to be entirely surrounded by the annexing
[disannexing] municipality but would not include the area within the municipality, the governing body of the
municipality must find, prior to completing the annexation [disannexation] that surrounding the area is in the public
interest." Tex. Loc. Gov. Code Sec. 43.057.
May 13, 2024—City Council Meeting—Act on ordinance to disannex (day 77 from institution of
disannexation proceedings)
Because of the way the calendar falls with the month of April having 5 Mondays, the City Council
can accomplish both hearings and act on the ordinance without the necessity of calling a special
meeting.
BUDGET: The requested disannexation would deprive the City of the property tax revenue for
the disannexed property. The petitioners plan on improving the property with a home and possibly
other structures which will raise the taxable value of the property.
OPTIONS: 1. Discuss and act on a resolution stating the intent of city council to institute
disannexation procedings on a 31.774 acre tract of land located at 660 and 680 CR
32900.
2. Discuss and act on a resolution making findings of fact and denying the petition
of Brandon and Kara Bond to disannex a 31.774 acre tract located within the city
limits of the City of Paris and located at 660 and 680 R 32900.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Council choose and act on the resolution
described in Option No. 2.

FROM: Robert G. Vine, Deputy City Manager
SUBJECT: Short Term Rental Program and Ordinance Discussion
DATE: February 26, 2024
BACKGROUND:
On June 15, 2022, a committee consisting of City Council Members and staff began meeting to
discuss Short Term Rentals and the appropriateness of creating an ordinance for city-wide
registration and regulations. The driving force behind this project consists of public safety and
quality of life for surrounding neighbors.
STATUS OF ISSUE:
After numerous meetings and research into what other municipalities are doing to address the topic
of Short Term Rental properties, staff has modeled a draft ordinance and registration program
patterned after that of the City of Frisco, Texas. This particular ordinance focuses on life safety
rather than restrictions and enforcement.
Tonight's agenda is strictly presentation, introduction of the topic, and obtaining initial feedback
from the City Council. Unless the City Council directs otherwise, in an effort to involve our local
Short Term Rental owner/operators, staff would like to host a community workshop where this
proposed ordinance and registration program is shared with the local Short Term Rental
owner/operators, listen to their input and possibly incorporate that input into the final ordinance
draft presented to the governing body for consideration.
BUDGET:
Approval of this ordinance would require Short Term Rental entities to pay appropriate Hotel
Occupation Tax if they are not already doing so.
OPTIONS:
Guidance only
1. Instruct staff to meet with local Short Term Rental owner/operators before bringing back a
proposal for an ordinance and registration program for approval.
2. Instruct staff to bring proposal for an ordinance and registration program for approval back
without meeting with local Short Term Rental owner/operators
3. Instruct staff to abandon this project.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Instruct staff to meet with local Short Term Rental owner/operators before bringing back a
proposal for an ordinance and registration program for approval.

SUBJECT: Cross Connection Control Prograrn Ordinance (Backflow)
DATE: February 26, 2024
BACKGROUND
Cross connections of water supplies are situations when non -potable water connects with potable
water. This can be very dangerous as it can cause series illness, even death. The importance of
having clearly defined procedures for protecting the public drinking water system from cross
connection hazards cannot be overstated. A cl uali ty and understandable Cross Connection Control
.Program is essential for protecting the city's public drinking water system and ismandated at
both the State and Federal level.
STATUS OF ISSUE
Backflow protection for the city is currently established in the city's irrigation ordinance (Section
4.12), the friternational Plumbing Code ([PC chapters 6 & 13), Texas Commission on
Environmental Quality (TCEQ publications RG 206, RG -345, ECA -476, RG -477, & RG -478), and
the EPA's Cross Connection Control Manual; with referenced standards to:
• Recommended Practice for Backflow Prevention and Cross Connection Control (M14),
third edition, from the American Water Works Association
• Manual of Cross. -Connection Control, tenth edition, from the Foundation for Cross
Connection Control and Hydraulic Research
• Guide to Cross Connection Protection Devices and Assemblies: Application and.
Selection, from the American Society of Sanitary .Engineering
While all of these regulation, standards and manuals are in agreement, they are generic in nature
(developed and written for rnultipl e jurisdictions) and do not address specific local enforcement
sm��
or departmental and owner responsibilities. Having multiple regulation sources with generic
terminology makes it challenging for staff to explain responsibility, installation and enforcement
requirements. Furthermore, it creates challenges for contractors as to what to install and service,
as well as makes it difficult for the owners and the general public to understand.
Placing this information in one document while referencing the above listed rules and regulations
will make the process straightforward and streamline the method of cross -connection protection
of our public drinking water system.
This proposed Cross -Connection Control (Backflow) Ordinance:
• Explains the purpose for backflow protection,
• Defines local duties and responsibilities for our Water Purveyor, Building Safety
Department, Installers and Owners,
• Provides for the city's regulatory compliance
• Establishes enforcement procedures,
• Set fines and procedures for violations and
• Provides relief/appeal protocols.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends adoption of an ordinance establishing a cross -connection control program to
help protect the public drinking water system for the City of Paris.

each side of the check valves and properly located test cocks for the testing of the check
valve(s).
viii. Reduced Pressure Principle Backflow Preventer: An assembly consisting of two (2)
independently operating approved check valves with an automatically operating differential
relief valve located between the two (2) check valves, tightly closing shut-off valves on each
side of the check valves plus properly located test cocks for the testing of the check valves
and the relief valve.
ix. Residential Dual Check: An assembly of two (2) spring loaded, independently operating check
valves without tightly closing shut-off valves and test cocks. Generally employed immediately
downstream of the water meter to act as a containment device.
(5) Backpressure: Pressure that can cause backflow to occur when a potable system is connected to
a nonpotable supply operating under a higher pressure than the distribution system by means of
a pump, boiler, elevation difference, air or steam pressure, or other means
(6) Backsiphonage: The flow of water or other liquids, mixtures or substances into the distribution
pipes of a potable water supply system from any source other than its intended source caused by
the sudden reduction of pressure in the potable water supply system.
(7) Building Safety Department: The Building Safety Department has the duty and power to enforce
all ordinances and laws regulating construction on private property by providing services such as
permit issuance, plan examination and inspection. The mission of the Building Safety Department
is to protect the lives and safety of the residents and visitors of the City of Paris, preserve quality
of life and contribute to economic development and viability of the community.
(8) Compliance Engine: The Compliance Engine is a web -based service used by the City of Paris to
track and maintain code compliance, reduce false alarm activity, and provide safer communities
through third party inspection reporting and maintenance.
(9) Cross -Connection: A point in a plumbing system where it is possible for a nonpotable substance
to come into contact with the potable drinking water supply. Any actual or potential connection
between the public water supply and a source of contamination or pollution.
(10)Manual M14: The American Water Works Association's Recommended Practice for Backflow
Prevention and Cross -Connection Control, current edition.
(11)TCEQ: The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
(12)Water Purveyor: The Water Purveyor has the responsibility to supply potable water to the city's
customers and has the authority to take or cause to be taken the necessary measures to ensure
the public drinking water distribution system is protected from any actual or potential backflow
hazards.
(13)Water Service Entrance: That point in the owner's water system beyond the sanitary control of
the water purveyor; generally considered to be the outlet end of the water meter and always
before any unprotected branch.
b. Purpose
Within distribution systems there exist points called cross -connections where nonpotable water
can be connected to potable sources. These cross -connections can provide a pathway for
backflow of nonpotable water into potable sources. Backflow can occur either because of reduced
pressure in the distribution system (termed backsiphonage) or the presence of increased pressure
from a nonpotable source (termed backpressure). Backsiphonage may be caused by a variety of
circumstances, such as main breaks, flushing, pump failure, or emergency firefighting water
drawdown. Backpressure may occur when heating/cooling, waste disposal, or industrial
manufacturing systems are connected to potable supplies and the pressure in the external system
exceeds the pressure in the distribution system. Both situations act to change the direction of
water, which normally flows from the distribution system to the customer, so that nonpotable
and potentially contaminated water from industrial, commercial, or residential sites flows back
into the distribution system through a cross -connection. During incidents of backflow, these
chemical and biological contaminants have caused illness and deaths, with contamination
affecting a number of service connections. In order to protect the life, health and well-being of
the citizens of and visitors to the City of Paris the following Cross -Connection Control Program has
been established.
c. General
(1) No water -service connection shall be made to any establishment where a potential or actual
contamination hazard exists unless the water supply is protected in accordance with the 290 Rules
and this ordinance. No water -service connection shall be made without a release authorization
from the Building Safety Department, and as directed by the Building Official or Plumbing
Inspector, the water purveyor shall discontinue water service if a required air gap or backflow
prevention assembly is not installed, maintained, and tested in accordance with the 290 Rules and
this ordinance.
(2) All residences, building, structures orfacilities that use an auxiliary water supply, such as a private
well, a rainwater -harvesting system, or pump water directly from any impounded water source
or any water supply other than potable water supplied by the City of Paris distribution system,
must install an RPZ at the meter connection or provide an air gap.
(3) No backflow protection at the water service meter is required where an adequate internal cross -
connection control program is in place provided that the cross -connection control program is
documented by a State of Texas licensed Master Plumber or Water -Supply -Protection Specialists.
d. Requirements
(1) On new installations, the Building Safety Department will review owner provided plans, which
shall be completed by a Professional Engineer or Licensed Master Plumber. Upon approval of
plans the Building Safety Department will issue a permit, and perform inspections. In any case, a
minimum of a dual check valve will be required in any new residential construction. Before
Plumbing Final will be approved, device shall be tested by an approved third -party backflow tester
and register with The Compliance Engine.
(2) For premises existing prior to the start of this program, the Building Safety Department will
perform evaluations and inspections of plans and/or premises and inform the owner by letter of
any corrective action deemed necessary, the method of achieving the correction, and the time
allowed for the correction to be made. Ordinarily, ninety (90) days will be allowed, however, this
time period may be shortened depending upon the degree of hazard involved and the history of
the device(s) in question.
(3) The Building Safety Department will not allow any cross -connection to remain unless it is
protected by an approved backflow preventer device for which a permit has been issued and the
device registered with The Compliance Engine, the city's electronic reporting system, and
regularly tested to insure satisfactory operation.
(4) The Building Safety Department shall inform the Owner by letter, of any failure to comply, by the
time of the first re -inspection. The Building Safety Department will allow an additional fifteen (15)
days for the correction. In the event the Owner fails to comply with the necessary correction by
the time of the second re -inspection, the Building Safety Department will inform the Owner by
letter, that the water service to the Owner's premises will be terminated within a period not to
exceed five (5) days. In the event that the Owner informs the Building Safety Department of
extenuating circumstances as to why the correction has not been made, a time extension may be
granted by the Department but in no case will exceed an additional thirty (30) days.
(5) If the Water Purveyor or Plumbing Inspector determines at any time that a serious threat to the
public health exists, the water service will be terminated immediately.
(6) The Building Safety Department shall have on file, a list of Private Contractors who are certified
backflow device testers. All charges for these tests will be paid by the Owner of the building or
property.
e. Owner Responsibility
(1) The property Owner shall be responsible for the elimination or protection of all cross -connections
on his or her premises.
(2) The Owner, after having been informed by a letter from the Building Safety Department, shall at
his expense, install, maintain, and test, or have tested, any and all backflow preventers on his
premises.
(3) The Owner shall correct any malfunction of the backflow preventer which is revealed by periodic
testing.
(4) The Owner shall inform the Building Safety Department of any proposed or modified cross -
connections and also any existing cross connections of which the Owner is aware but may not
have been found by the Building Safety Department.
(5) The Owner shall not install a bypass around any backflow preventer unless there is a backflow
preventer of the same type on the bypass. Owners who cannot shut down operation for testing
of the device(s) must supply additional devices necessary to allow testing to take place.
(6) The Owner shall install backflow preventers in a manner approved by the Department
(7) The Owner shall install only approved backflow preventers.
(8) Any Owner having a private well, or other private water source, must have a permit (issued by
the City of Paris) if the well or source is cross -connected to the City of Paris potable water
distribution system. Permission to cross -connect may be denied by the Water Purveyor, or
designated representative.
(9) The Owner may be required to install a backflow preventer at the service entrance if a private
water source is maintained, even if it is not cross -connected to the City's system.
(10)ln the event the Owner installs plumbing to provide potable water for domestic purposes which
is on the supply side of the backflow preventer, such plumbing must have its own backflow
preventer installed.
(10) The Owner shall be responsible for the payment of all fees for permits, annual or semi-annual
device testing, retesting in the case that the device fails to operate correctly, and second re -
inspections for non-compliance.
f. Installation, Testing, and Maintenance of Backflow Prevention Assemblies
(1) All backflow prevention assemblies must be tested upon installation in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions, Manual M14, or the University of Southern California's Manual of

STATUS OF ISSUE:
Veterans Day (November 10' each year) has been a federally -recognized holiday since 1954. In
2021, Juneteenth (June 1.91" each year) was added by the federal government as a federally
recognized holiday. Mayor Reginald B. Hughes has made the request to add Juneteenth and
Veterans Day to the list of City observed holidays. This would amend Section 1.4.01. of the
Personnel Policy & Procedures to include Juneteenth and Veterans Day to the other observed
holidays.
The following would be the revision:
"Section 14. 01- lIolida�s
New Year's Day, Martin Luther King's Birthday, Good Friday, Memorial Day, .u nmh, July
Lqqtq�-
4' Labor Day, !'�t�LqqLaw;, Thanksgiving Day and the Friday,f6llowing, Christmas Eve and
Christmas Day are observed as official holidayv,lbr all City employees in accordance with the
following policies: "
Pursuant to Section 14.0 1, for employees whose duties do not require them. to work on the holiday,
they are paid 4 -12 hours (depending on part time (4), full time (8), and certain shifts (12)) for the
holiday not worked (a "paid day off' like a vacation. day). For those employees whose duties
require that they work (ex: Water Treatment Facility, Waste Water Treatment Facility, Police, Fire
and EMS), they are given the option of either a) receiving a leave day that they can bank and use
at a future date (T13D by the employee), or b) receive straight pay the same pay period as the
holiday for those holiday hours (if they worked 8 hours on a holiday and this was their complete
shift, they would receive 8 hours of pay for working that day and 8 hours of holiday pay for the
same day). Holiday hours do not count towards overtime.
To add a holiday would have the following cost implications:
For employees not required to work, there is the loss of production for being out of the
office which is challenging to calculate as a tangible total.
For employees required to work, this number is also difficult to calculate because our
policy allows them to choose whether to have it paid out or banked as a future holiday
taken. For a holiday banked and taken later-, this requires another employee to backfill
which typically equates to OT pay. Factoring in sick leave, vacation leave, shift demands
(emergency situation that requires more staff to come in), the varying amounts of pay
employees make depending on classification and/or step, etc., this too is extremely difficult
to calculate as a tangible total. However, we can at least get an idea of the minimum
expense by just looking at the cost for those who choose to have it paid out the pay period
they worked (instead of banking it for a future time TBD). Looking at Labor Day 2023 (a
sample standalone holiday in a pay period), the expense was about $13k+ in pay paid out,
plus benefits. Again, it is reasonable to see this as the low end cost to the city for a holiday
before factoring in loss production, HR matters (OT, vacation, banking of leave, varying
levels of pay for classification and step, emergency situations, etc.), holiday paid out, and
benefits. Therefore, adding two holidays would add approximately $26k+ in pay paid out,
plus benefits.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve a Resolution amending Section 14.01 to add Juneteenth and Veterans Day as city
recognized holidays.
2. Approve a Resolution amending Section 14.01 to add either Juneteenth or Veterans Day as
a City recognized holiday.
3. Request additional information and/or deny the request.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve a Resolution amending Section 14.01 to add Juneteenth and Veterans Day as city
recognized holidays.
