PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT
Interoffice Memorandum
TO: Clay Phillips, Deputy City Manager
FROM: Brad Reid, Director of Parks and Recreation
DATE: December 19, 2006
SUBJECT: 2007 Special Events
Listed are the Special Events as currently planned for 2007 as well as some questions that
remain as to the expectations regarding certain events. I request that these questions be
discussed with City Council as early as possible so that we can begin planning for these
events.
CURRENTLY PLANNED EVENTS:
Sweetheart Balls
- Feb. 9th- Mother/Son, Feb. 10th Daddy/Daughter. Theme: “An Enchanted
Masquerade Ball”. Dances with Silent Auctions at the Coppell Aquatics and
Recreation Center. Tickets required.
Family Fish
-March 3rd , 9am-Noon, Andrew Brown East Pond- Focus on families and fishing.
Stocked pond and catch tank. No charge.
Community Egg Hunt
-April 7th 11:00am at Wagon Wheel Park-NEW LOCATION!* No charge!
Clean Coppell Earthfest
- April 21st, 9am-1pm, Town Center Parking Lot. No charge!
Fourth of July Parade,
-July 4th 10 am, No charge!
Halloween Event
-October 31, 5:30-8:30 PM at Aquatics and Recreation Center. $3 fee.
Holiday Parade and Celebration
- December 1st Parade at 4pm and an event at the New Town Center Plaza with
community music, new displays and tree lighting.
-I expect that with the new Town Center Plaza, this event will become larger,
with more activities and entertainment, along with increased decorations. We
will budget and plan for the 2007 event as though the construction at the plaza
will be complete by the first week in December. However, the fall-back plan will
be to hold the event as we have the past couple of years.
UNRESOLVED ISSUES:
July 4th Spirit of Coppell (Wednesday night)
- Lewisville is awarding a new contract for fireworks in Jan. ’07. They will test a
show of reduced height from the original site due to development along 121, and
at a new location north of Hebron and I 35. They will let us know the test date
(late Jan. or Feb) so we can preview from AB East.
Options: 1.) Be proactive and start looking at doing our own reduced height
fireworks show on the east side of the pond. A representative from a pyrotechnics
company has informed us that the parking lot area at Moore Road Park will be
perfect for a reduced height fireworks show. Of course this would require
additional funding over what we currently have budgeted, as well as approval
from the Fire Chief. We will need approximately $10 K additional funds. Also,
the pyrotechnics company will not be available on the 4th (perhaps we could hold
ours the weekend prior). 2.) Consider holding only the parade on the 4th and put
the resources that would go toward the evening activities into a fall event (see
below).
I prefer that we not wait on the results of the Lewisville fireworks test to make
our decision. We will be delayed in arranging for our entertainment if they are
slowed at all letting us know their decision. The fact that they are looking at a
reduced height firework shell raises questions about the quality of the show from
our site.
Fall Festival
This would be a larger community event similar to the 50/05, sometime in
October. Such an event was mentioned as a possibility recently but funding was
not requested in the current year’s budget. We will need to plan ahead to put in
the 07-08 Budget and step up our sponsorship requests. If the desire is to hold
such an event, I need to get some idea of City Council expectations.
*The Community Egg Hunt is being proposed to move to Wagon Wheel Park due
to parking requirements and the open nature of the park, which will better
accommodate large numbers of people for this type of event.

CONTRACT/BID or PROPOSAL
Consider approval of an Interlocal Agreement between the City of Coppell and the North Central Texas Council of
Governments for the cooperative purchasing for actuarial shared services, and authorizing the City Manager to sign it
and all appropriate documents.
The City is required to implement Government Accounting Standards Board Statement (GASB)45, Accounting and
Financial Reporting by Employers for Post Employment Benefits other than Pensions. GASB Statement 45 requires the
City to provide information about the actuarial accrued liabilities for promised benefits associated with past services
and to what extent those benefits have been funded. Entering the Interlocal agreement affords the City the ability to
obtain actuarial services at a cost that is less than the cost the City would pay if the services were obtained solely by
the City.
Staff Recommends approval.

MASTER AGREEMENT
Pursuant to the award of Joint Actuarial Services by the North Central Texas Council of
Governments (NCTCOG), this agreement confirms the terms under which the
(name of government) hereinafter referred to as
“CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT” has engaged Gabriel, Roeder, Smith & Co.
hereinafter referred to as ”ACTUARIAL FIRM” to perform actuarial consulting services.
In as much as this relationship will involve several actuarial reviews and other services
that will be governed by the Request for Proposal issued by NCTCOG on May 31, 2006
and our subsequent response to that proposal, we have agreed to establish this “master
agreement” defining the general terms and conditions for all work performed.
This agreement will not, by itself, authorize the performance of any services. Rather
specific services will be authorized through a separate engagement letter that references
this master agreement and details the services to be provided and the timeframe and fees
required. In the event of an inconsistency between this master agreement and an
individual engagement letter, the master agreement will be followed.
As described in the above referenced Request for Proposal the following terms apply:
A. Tax Exempt Entities. CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT is exempt from
manufacturer’s federal excise tax and states sales tax. Tax exemption certificates
will be issued upon request.
B. Role of NCTCOG. NCTCOG has served as a facilitator to the RFP and award
process but the contractual relationship is between ACTUARIAL FIRM and the
CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT.
C. Aggregate Information. ACTUARIAL FIRM agrees to supply NCTCOG with
the specified results from the valuations and to aggregate that information with that
of other governments for the purpose of benchmarking.
D. Fees. ACTUARIAL FIRM agrees to follow the attached pricing schedule
(“Attachment A”) for pricing of its services.
I. Review of Charges. CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT has the right to review
the supporting documentation for any hourly charges or out of pocket expenses
assessed to the CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT under the fee schedule.
J. Termination. Both CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT and ACTUARIAL FIRM
will have the right to terminate this agreement through written notice.
CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT will pay any charges or prorate fees incurred to
the date the termination notice is received and actuary will cease any in progress
work unless specific stopping points are provided in the letter.
K. Work Product. The final work product will be the property of the
CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT to be used as stated in the specific engagement
letter. Ancillary use of the product is permitted but ACTUARIAL FIRM is not
responsible for the reliability of those projections. It is understood that all reports
are subject to the open records laws of the State of Texas and the contracting
jurisdiction.
L. Independent Contractor. All the services provided by ACTUARIAL FIRM will
be as an independent contractor. None of the terms in the engagement letter will be
interpreted to create an agency or employment relationship.
M. Biennial Reviews. CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT agrees to provide census
data in off years using the same cut off date and delivery dates as used for the year
of review. Actuary agrees to review the off year census data and provide
CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT with timely feedback regarding deficiencies in
the data.
N. Term. The term of this master agreement will be governed by the afore referenced
NCTCOG RFP and will expire on September 30, 2012.
O. Complete Agreement. This letter combined with the specific engagement letter
and as clarified by the RFP and Proposal set forth the entire agreement between the
CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT and ACTUARIAL FIRM.
P. Indemnification. Contractor covenants and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
and defend and does hereby indemnify, hold harmless, and defend NCTCOG and
CONTRACTING GOVERNMENTS, its officers and employees, from and against
any and all suits or claims for damages or injuries, including death, to persons or
property, whether real or asserted, arising out of any negligent act or omission on
the part of the contractor, its officers, agents, servants, employees, or
subcontractors, and the contractor does hereby assume all liability for injuries,
claims or suits for damages to persons, property, or whatever kind of character,
whether real or asserted, occurring during or arising out of the performance of a
contract as a result of any negligent act or omission on the part of the contractor, its
officers, agents, servants, employees, or subcontractors to the extent permitted by
law. Please review this master agreement letter and the attached schedules and
indicate your acceptance by having an official of CONTRACTING
GOVERNMENT sign below.
Q. Force Majeure. A force majeure event shall be defined to include governmental
decrees or restraints, acts of God (except that rain, wind, flood or other natural
phenomena normally expected for the locality, shall not be construed as an act of
God), work stoppages due to labor disputes or strikes, fires, explosions, epidemics,
riots, war, rebellion, and sabotage. If a delay or failure of performance by either
party to this contract results from the occurrence of a force majeure event, the delay
shall be excused and the time fixed for completion of the work extended by a period
equivalent to the time lost because of the event.
R. Professional Standards. ACTUARIAL FIRM will provide qualified personnel for
each engagement and follow all professional standards ascribed by the American
Academy of Actuaries and the Governmental Accounting Standards Board.

#Annual Sidewalk Repair Project
MEMORANDUM
TO:Mayor and City Council
FROM:Kenneth M. Griffin, P.E., Director of Engineering and Public Works
DATE:January 23, 2007
REF: Consider approval of awarding Bid # Q 1106-03 for the annual Sidewalk
Pavement Repair Project to Estrada Concrete in an amount of $100,000, as
budgeted in the Infrastructure Maintenance Fund; and authorizing the City
Manager to sign.
On December 19, 2006, the City of Coppell received and opened 10 bids for our yearly sidewalk
repair program. The contract for this project has a clause to extend the contract for up to four
additional one-year periods. Our sidewalk repair program for 2007 consists of approximately
17,700 square feet of sidewalk repair, at over 100 locations ranging in size from 10 square feet to
720 square feet. Also, it includes the removal and replacement of approximately 100 linear feet
of curbs at 10 locations.
The City sent out 10 letters to firms which generally perform this time of work, including
Quantum Contracting and Abcon Paving, the two firms which have performed this work for the
city in the past. Also, to insure that we were reaching a wide range of bidders, this project was
bid over the RFP Depot bidding service. This is an electronic bidding service that the City
utilizes to alert contractors when projects are being bid. The contractors can go directly to the
RFP Depot website and submit their bid.
Of the ten firms who submitted bids, only two were firms included in the letters that we sent out
to notify contractors that had previously worked in this area. The other eight bids were
submitted by contractors after they were notified by the RFP Depot website. In this particular
case, it worked to the City's advantage as the low bidder on the project, Estrada Concrete, was
not a firm that we had worked with in the past; but, was a firm that was alerted by the RFP
Depot. Estrada Concrete's bid is approximately 14% lower than the next low bid and about 23%
lower than our current sidewalk repair price.
We allocate $100,000 per year in the Infrastructure Maintenance Fund for sidewalk repairs.
However, based on the current requests that we have, the Estrada Concrete bid totaled
$78,801.10. Because their bid was less than we expected, we will be adding additional locations
to be repaired during the course of the year. The additional locations are a combination of City
initiated repairs and additional repairs in areas that we work in.
Because Estrada Concrete has not previously worked in the City of Coppell and because I was
unfamiliar with their work, I contacted the cities of Euless and Allen, which were listed as
references for Estrada Concrete. Representatives from both cities stated that Estrada Concrete
had worked with them and successfully completed projects ranging from $70,000 to $300,000.
The City of Coppell recommends awarding the FY 06/07 Sidewalk Replacement Project to
Estrada Concrete in an amount of $100,000, as budgeted in the Infrastructure Maintenance Fund.
Staff will be available to answer any questions at the council meeting.

On December 19, 2006, the City of Coppell received and opened 7 bids for our yearly street and
alley repair program. The contract for this project has a clause to extend the contract for up to
four additional one-year periods. Our street and alley repair program for 2007 consists of
approximately 4,000 square yards of street repair, at over 50 locations and approximately 2,500
square yards of alley repair at over 60 locations. Also, it includes the removal and replacement of
approximately 100 linear feet of curbs at 10 locations.

Enterprise's bid is approximately 7% lower than the next low bidder and about 21% lower than
our current concrete price for street and alley repair.
We allocate $300,000 per year in the Infrastructure Maintenance Fund for street and alley repairs
and based on the current requests that we have, the Goteck Enterprises bid totaled $329,215.
Because Goteck Enterprises has not previously worked in the City of Coppell and because I was
unfamiliar with their work, I contacted Dallas County, which was listed as a reference for Goteck
Enterprises. A representative from Dallas County stated that Goteck Enterprises had worked
with them and successfully completed a project in the range of $350,000.
The City of Coppell recommends awarding the FY 06/07 Street and Alley Replacement Project
to Goteck Enterprises in an amount of $300,000, as budgeted in the Infrastructure Maintenance
Fund.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF COPPELL, TEXAS
RESOLUTION NO. ________
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF COPPELL, TEXAS, ENDORSING
THE U.S. MAYORS CLIMATE PROTECTION AGREEMENT AS AMENDED
BY THE 73RD ANNUAL U.S. CONFERENCE OF MAYORS MEETING AND
URGING MAYORS FROM AROUND THE NATION TO JOIN THIS EFFORT.
WHEREAS, the U.S. Conference of Mayors has previously adopted strong policy resolutions
calling for cities, communities and the federal government to take actions to reduce global warming
pollution; and
WHEREAS, the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the international
community’s most respected assemblage of scientists, has found that climate disruption is a reality and
that human activities are largely responsible for increasing concentrations of global warming
pollutions; and
WHEREAS, recent, well-documented impacts of climate disruption include average global sea
level increases of four to eight inches during the 20th century; a 40 percent decline in Arctic sea-ice
thickness; and nine of the ten hottest years on record occurring in the past decade; and
WHEREAS, climate disruption of the magnitude now predicted by the scientific community
will cause extremely costly disruption of human and natural systems throughout the world including:
increased risk of floods or droughts; sea-level rises that interact with coastal storms to erode beaches,
inundate land, and damage structures; more frequent and extreme heat waves; more frequent and
greater concentrations of smog; and
WHEREAS, on February 16, 2005, the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement to address
climate disruption, went into effect in the 141 countries that have ratified it to date; 38 of those
countries are now legally required to reduce greenhouse gas emissions on average 5.2 percent below
1990 levels by 2012; and
WHEREAS, the United States of America, with less than five percent of the world’s
population, is responsible for producing approximately 25 percent of the world’s global warming
pollutants; and
WHEREAS, the Kyoto Protocol emissions reduction target for the U.S. would have been 7
percent below 1990 levels by 2012; and
WHEREAS, many leading U.S. companies that have adopted greenhouse gas reduction
programs to demonstrate corporate social responsibility have also publicly expressed preference for the
U.S. to adopt precise and mandatory emissions targets and timetables as a means by which to remain
competitive in the international marketplace, to mitigate financial risk and to promote sound
investment decisions; and
WHEREAS, state and local governments throughout the U.S. are adopting emission reduction
targets coming from Republican and Democratic governors and mayors alike; and
1
WHEREAS, many cities throughout the nation, both large and small, are reducing global
warming pollutants through programs that provide economic and quality of life benefits such as
reduced energy bills, green space preservation, air quality improvements, reduced traffic congestion,
improved transportation choices, and economic development and job creation through energy
conservation and new energy technologies; and
WHEREAS, mayors from around the nation have signed the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection
Agreement which, as amended at the 73rd Annual U.S. Conference of Mayors meeting, reads:
The U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement
A. We urge the federal government and state governments to enact policies and programs to meet
or beat the target of reducing global warming pollution levels to 7 percent below 1990 levels by
2012, including efforts to: reduce the U.S. dependence on fossil fuels and accelerate the
development of clean, economical energy resources and fuel-efficient technologies such as
conservation, methane recovery for energy generation, waste to energy, wind and solar energy,
fuel cells, efficient motor vehicles, and biofuels;
B. We urge the U.S. Congress to pass bipartisan greenhouse gas reduction legislation that includes
1) clear timetables and emissions limits and 2) a flexible, market-based system of tradable
allowances among emitting industries; and
C. We will strive to meet or exceed Kyoto Protocol targets for reducing global warming pollution
by taking actions in our own operations and communities such as:
1. Inventory global warming emissions in city operations and in the community, set
reduction targets and create an action plan;
2. Adopt and enforce land-use policies that reduce sprawl, preserve open space, and create
compact, walkable urban communities;
3. Promote transportation options such as bicycle trails, commute trip reduction programs,
incentives for car pooling and public transit;
4. Increase the use of clean, alternative energy by, for example, investing in “green tags,”
advocating for the development of renewable energy resources, recovering landfill
methane for energy production, and supporting the use of waste to energy technology;
5. Make energy efficiency a priority through building code improvements, retrofitting city
facilities with energy efficient lighting and urging employees to conserve energy and save
money;
6. Purchase only Energy Star equipment and appliances for city use;
7. Practice and promote sustainable building practices using the U.S. Green Building
Council’s LEED program or a similar system;
8. Increase the average fuel efficiency of municipal fleet vehicles; reduce the number of
vehicles; launch an employee education program including anti-idling messages; convert
diesel vehicles to bio-diesel;
9. Evaluate opportunities to increase pump efficiency in water and wastewater systems;
10. Increase recycling rates in city operations and in the community;
2
11. Maintain healthy urban forests; promote tree planting to increase shading and to absorb
CO2; and
12. Help educate the public, schools, other jurisdictions, professional associations, business
and industry about reducing global warming pollution.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the city of Coppell,
Texas, endorses the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement as amended by the 73rd annual U.S.
Conference of Mayors meeting and urges mayors from around the nation to join this effort.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the City Council of the city of Coppell, Texas, will
work in conjunction with ICLEI Local Governments for Sustainability and other appropriate
organizations to track progress and implementation of the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement
as amended by the 73rd annual U.S. Conference of Mayors meeting.

July Texas Cities
Can Fight Global Warming by Arlington
Mayor Robert Cluck and Austin
Mayor Will Wynn With heat
drought air pollution and hurricanes on their minds it s no wonder Texans are worried about
the future Increased use offossil fuels isleading to a changed climate but a group
of Lone Star cities are rising to the challenge focused on reducing global warming emissions
and pointing the way out of our dilemma Everyone has
seen how pollution from the energy we use affects air quality in cities throughout the
state leading to more smog and more occasions when it s unsafe for children to
play outside By early June the Dallas Fort Wortharea had already experienced three
code red days When that happens the ozone count isso high it will damage your
lungs triggering asthma attacks and other health problems Typically such days don
t happen until much later in the summer But at
the same time burning fossil fuels also produces carbon dioxide which traps the sun s
heat and will in the long run change our climate While no single weather event canbe
blamed on global warming the handwriting on the wall is becoming increasingly clear After
years and years of this gasbuilding up in the atmosphere we re entering atime of
payback Unfortunately we
ve received ataste of what we could be facing Despite occasional wet weather drought
is taking a toll on agriculture our natural areas and city water systems But a
still warmer climate would make things even worse with not only greater stress on water supplies
but increased deaths from heat and pollution Stronger hurricanes would hit our
coastal cities harder We must
take concrete steps now to avoid more serious consequences Unfortunately acommon reaction
istothrow up one s hands and say there s nothing we can do Not true
Under the
auspices ofICLEI Local Governments for Sustainability some Texas cities have begun
to take action Austin has
instituted a green building program promoted the use of alternative fuels in government vehicles
and offers financial incentives for community weatherization measures such
as attic insulation solar screens air infiltration and duct sealing Just these three programs
will keep us from putting over tons of carbon dioxide into the air each year Arlington meanwhile
by applying
sensible measures over the last four years has decreased city wide energy
use by percent through employing more fuel efficient cars switching to LED traffic
lights and encouraging greater energy efficiency in
buildings Even little things can add up to big benefits and yield a mancial benefit too
On June together with the University of Arlington sSchool of Urban and Public Affairs
and ICLEI the Texas Cities for Climate Protection Meeting was held on the campus
ofthe University of Texas at Arlington The purpose ofthe gathering was to inform
Texas mayors ofthe impacts of a changing climate toair quality and public health
and to discuss solutions and actions that will make a difference in the health and well
being of Texans The
gathering helped the mayors from Texas cities see first hand that we can make a difference
we re not helpless even facing something as large as global warming It gave us
achance to discuss our common challenges and their potential solutions Many of our choices
offer no regrets saving energy and money for city budgets and improving the air
quality for those threatened with lung disorders The more city officials and citizens become
involved the better off we will be Skeptics
will say that we could bewrong about global warming and that we will waste resources
and time trying to correct itBut that s actually the best possible outcome because
the worst possible outcome one that science ispointing to more strongly every day
is that global warming isindeed occurring and if we stick our heads in the sand we will
pass a point at which we cannot correct itThen it will be left to our children and grandchildren
to fix a far greater problem Indeed that would be a bad legacy to leave to those
we love Robert

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
Date: January 23, 2007
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Brad Reid, Director of Parks and Recreation
Re: Consider approval of award of a bid from Northstar Construction, Inc. for the
development of the Coppell Town Center Plaza in the amount of $2,491,700.00, and
authorizing the City Manager to sign the resulting contract.
Background:
Halff & Associates has been working with the city of Coppell for many months to
develop a site plan and construction documents related to the creation of a Plaza at the
Town Center Commons. The architect was asked to provide a plan for development that
would allow for increased pedestrian usage of the area by the addition of an
amphitheater, lighted walk paths, open play areas, shaded seating, sustainable
landscaping and locations for future sculpture and art displays. The dream is to create a
space the community will look to with pride by reflecting on the past, while developing a
vision for the future of Coppell. This concept is accomplished with the use of natural or
common materials in more contemporary or uncommon applications.
For instance, stone, steel and concrete are used in new and interesting methods creating
unique experiences throughout the site. The tower, entry monuments and pavilion will
be particularly striking and memorable with the combined applications of stone
veneering with concrete and steel structural elements. Included also is a water
component with fountains located near the stage to create an active element within the
plaza.
Included in the bid documents are the Base Bid as described above, plus five Alternate
Bid Items for a fountain system at the stage (Alt. 1), lighting for this fountain (Alt. 1A),
installation of the pavilion structure and cover (Alt. 2, an $80,000 allowance), an
alternate to omit the entry monuments (Alt. 3) and an alternate to construct lighting
bollards along the pathway (Alt. 4).
Bids closed for this project on January 9, 2007 at which time bids from three contractors
were opened. Base Bids ranged from a net low of $2,399,000.00 (Northstar
Construction), to a net high of $3,330,000.00 (AUI Contractors). The low bidder has
demonstrated qualifications with a number of documented successful projects. The
architect has worked with this contractor in the past and qualified them for this project,
finding no reason not to recommend them for award of this contract. The Purchasing
Department received notification from Northstar Construction that they made a mistake
on their bid form on Alternate Items 1 and 1A, and cannot perform at the stated price.
Therefore, it is recommended that these alternates not be awarded. It is also
recommended that Alternate 3 not be awarded, which would eliminate the Entry
Monuments. It is recommended that Alternates 2 and 4 be awarded in addition to the
base bid. Alternate 2 creates an allowance in the contract of $80,000.00 to construct the
pavilion, and Alternate 4 ($12,700.00) adds specialty bollard lighting to the contract to
enhance the user experience and provide electrical outlets for various uses.
City Council Action requested:
This item is to request approval of a bid from Northstar Construction, Inc. and allow staff
to enter into a contract for the construction of the Coppell Town Center Plaza in the
amount of $2,491,700.00.
Staff Recommendation:
Approval of this item.
