Summary City of Coppell, Texas Page 1 Printed on 10/8/2021 7 T H E • G T T Y 0 F COFFELL fi A & y S MEMORANDUM To: Mayor and City Council Through: Mike Land, City Manager From: Hannah Cook, Chief Communications Strategist Date: October 12, 2021 Reference: Social Media Policy for Elected and Appointed Officials 2040: Sustainable Government Introduction: As technology becomes more and more integral to daily life and social media becomes an increasingly important method of communication, it is necessary to ensure that City spokespeople are clearly indentifiable and official messages come from authorized sources. For this reason, staff has drafted a Social Media Policy for Elected and Appointed Officials that provides guidelines and recommendations to help ensure that any City -related information published is accurate, from an identifiable source and in alignment with the Texas Public Information Act. Background: While elected officials and City Council -appointed board, committee and commission members may maintain and use personal social networking sites, their status as elected/appointed officials requires special consideration. If an elected or appointed official conducts any City business or communication as an official from a personal account, professional account, or an account created for board/committee/commission, officials should assume that any City -related communications will be considered a public record subject to the Texas Public Information Act as set forth in Texas Government Code. Staff researched social media best practices and trends for elected officials both nationwide and in the region. Cities across the nation are increasingly looking to adopt a policy outlining social media guidelines for elected/appointed officials, and multiple professional resources indicated that the Social Media for Elected/Appointed Officials adopted by the City of Durham, NC in 2017 is the industry standard. The proposed policy being presented to the Coppell City Council is largely based on the example from the City of Durham. 0 Additionally, staff polled appromately 35 cities in the Dallas Fort -Worth Metroplex to determine regional trends. Of the eight responses received, four cities have a similar existing policy in place. While the remaining four cities do not currently have a formal policy, each indicated that they are looking into it. Per Council's direction, staff has updated the proposed policy to incude definitions, record retention guidelines and enforcement procedures. Legal: The proposed policy has been reviewed by the City Attorney. Fiscal Impact: N/A Recommendation: Staff is looking for feedback and approval of the proposed Social Media Policy for Elected and Appointed Officials. 9 7� p L COPi: File ID: 2021-5951 Version: 1 File Name: Bo Proclamation City of Coppell, Texas Master File Number: 2021-5951 Type: Agenda Item Reference: 255 E.

Introduction: This change in use to a chess club and tutoring service requires additional parking. Nine additional parking spaces are proposed to be constructed north of the existing building. The existing 16 parking spaces are proposed to remain, and a variance was granted with the previous PD to allow the existing configuration. A variance was also granted for the side yard setback for the existing building. Nothing is currently proposed for Lot 5, but the lot lines for Lot 4R and 5, will be amended to reflect the change in property lines due to the need to provide additional parking for Lot 4R. A concept plan is shown for Lot 5 to illustrate the possible construction and parking layout in the future. A Detail Site Plan will be required for the development of this lot, including any required screening between Lot 5 and the adjacent properties. Analysis: On August 19, 2021, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of PD -217R4 -C with the conditions. On September 14, 2021 the City Council unanimously approved this request, subject to the P&Z conditions which have been incorporated into the ordinance. 1. A replat will be required to subdivide the lots and to provide any necessary easements. 2. Submit draft dumpster agreement for City Attorney review. This shall be filed with the plat. 3. All proposed signage shall comply with ordinance requirements. 24 4. A Detail Site Plan shall be required for the development of Lot 5 and shall include any required screening.

City Council passed this Ordinance due to COVID-19 because the pandemic impacted so many businesses that were forced to close or limit their service offerings. In order to help them in their recovery efforts, the City wanted to allow businesses more opportunities to advertise their services using on -premise temporary signage. The Ordinance placed a moratorium on enforcement of certain sections of Article 16, Chapter 6-15, Sections 6-15-3 (A), 6-15-4 and 6-15-5 (3) (A) and (B), (J) -(M) and (8) of the City of Coppell Code of Ordinances. Those sections read as follows: Sec. 6-15-3. - Signs. It is declared purpose of this section that in time all temporary signs shall either conform to the provisions of this section or be removed. By the passage of this ordinance and its amendments, no presently illegal sign shall be deemed to have legalized unless such sign complies with all current standards under the terms of this article and all other ordinances of the city. Any sign which does not conform to all provisions of this article shall be a prohibited sign. (A) No person may place, erect, or otherwise maintain any sign, as defined herein, either prior to or after the adoption of this ordinance, except as permitted in this article or under the Chapter 12, and, on any private property such sign in violation of this article, same shall be construed as a public 37 nuisance and the city may, without notice, remove and destroy any such sign, except as provided herein. Sec. 6-15-4. - Permit procedures and fees. 1. Permits: No person shall erect, construct, relocate, alter, or repair any on premise or off -premise on any property except as authorized or permitted under this article. All signs permitted under this article shall not be placed, erected or maintained unless a permit is issued in accordance with this chapter, except as otherwise provided in this section. This section does not apply to government signs. 2. Application: Application for a permit shall include a drawing to scale of the proposed sign and all existing signs maintained on the premises and visible from the right-of-way, and the sign specifications. 3. Fees: Every applicant, before being granted a pennit, shall pay the applicable fee established by resolution of the city council. (A) Any person who erects, places, alters, repairs or relocates a sign, or commences work thereon, without first having obtained a permit, shall pay a late fee equal to twice the amount of the applicable sign permit fee. 4. [Permanent sign.] Any permanent sign placed, erected or maintained are exempt from this article. Sec. 6-15-5. - Provisions for all zoning districts. 3. Prohibited signs: The following types of signs are specifically prohibited. (A) Portable signs.

M A -framed signs (signs located in the back of a truck or other vehicle). (K) Can signs made of plastic or similar translucent materials. 38 (L) Hand-held signs, except as provided in subsection 2.(C) of this section. (M) Inflatable signs. 8. Temporary banner signs: Banner signs shall be permitted subject to the following restrictions: (A) Banner signs shall be constructed of cloth or canvas material and must be anchored in such a way that would prevent the sign from moving freely in the wind. Businesses that erect signs under the provisions of this section shall not display a sign that states "Going Out of Business" or similar message more than one time. (B) During the initial year of operation, a business shall be permitted to erect one temporary banner sign a maximum of five times. Such signs shall be erected a maximum of 14 days for each permit except the initial sign may be erected for a maximum of 45 days. In addition, a business shall also be permitted to erect one grand opening temporary banner sign at the same time as the initial 45day banner is up. Such sign shall be erected a maximum of 14 days. A permit shall not be issued within 15 days of the date that any temporary banner sign was erected at the occupancy. The permit application for the sign must include the date the sign will be erected, the date the sign will be removed and a drawing showing the location of the sign. The effective area for such signs shall not exceed 40 square feet. (C) A business that has been in operation for a period of one year or more, and non-profit organizations, shall be permitted to erect one temporary banner sign at a location five times per calendar year. Such signs shall be erected a maximum of 14 days for each permit.

Signs shall be constructed of vinyl cloth or canvas material and must be anchored in such a way that would prevent the sign from moving freely in the wind. (E) A banner may be erected on a lot adjacent to structure if the business owns both lots. Analysis: The original Ordinance was set to expire on December 31, 2020. City Council has approved several 39 extensions, with the most current Ordinance expiring on September 30, 2021. During Work Session at the City Council meeting on September 28, 2021, City Council expressed their desire to extend the Ordinance once again. While the restrictions on occupancy levels have been removed, businesses are still trying to recover; therefore, City Council would like to allow the use of on - premise temporary signage for three additional months. If approved by City Council, the proposed Ordinance will now expire on December 31, 2021. All temporary sign regulations will go back into place on January 1, 2022. A letter will be mailed to all businesses in Coppell on December 1, 2021 to inform them that the current moratorium will expire and all regular restrictions will be back in place on January 1, 2022. As before, this moratorium is intended to allow businesses to use temporary signage on -premise that is typically prohibited including but not limited to balloons, banners and feather signs. Temporary signs cannot be placed in the Right -of -Way. And, this does not apply to off -premise signs or other signs that are otherwise prohibited by the Temporary Sign Ordinance. This moratorium will expire as stated above. Legal Review: Bob Hager drafted the Ordinance. Fiscal Impact: N/A Recommendation: Staff recommends approval. 40 ORDINANCE NO.

Council can adopt a resolution that states the proceeds will be used for a purpose authorized under the 2008A Certificate of Obligations (Certificates) Ordinance, or it can adopt a Redemption Resolution which uses the proceeds to redeem the 2015 General Obligation Refunding Bonds (GO Refunding) which were issued to refund the 2008A Certificates. Analysis: Option 1: Use proceeds for a purpose authorized under the 2008A Certificates Ordinance. Under this option, Council would adopt a resolution authorizing the proceeds be used for projects consistent with the purpose provided in the 2008A Certificates Ordinance which stated: "The acquisition of approximately 360 acres, together with the acquisition of approximately 115 acres from the proceeds of the City's Combination Tax and Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Taxable Series 2008B, being a total of approximately 475 acres all out of a tract of land of approximately 940 acres known as North Lake property owned by Luminant (the "Northlake Property'), being located east of south Beltline, south of east Beltline, west of Valley Ranch Road being located in Irving and north of Hackberry Road, to be used in part for water system improvements including storage facilities and pumping station and in part for future municipal improvements, facilities and purposes, and for paying legal, fiscal, and engineering fees in connection with such projects. " The term "municipal improvements" is very broad which allows flexibility regarding the type of project the proceeds can be used to complete. If this option is selected, the proceeds must be spent within two years of the land sale closing. Therefore, the proceeds must be spent by October 1, 2023. 45 Option 2: Use proceeds to redeem the 2015 General Obligation Refunding Bonds. If Council decides to redeem bonds rather than use the proceeds for authorized projects, the steps would be as follows: 1. At the first Council meeting after closing the land sale, adopt a redemption resolution redeeming a portion of the 2015 GO Refunding and approving an escrow agreement. 2. Within 90 days of closing on the land sale, deposit the sale proceeds into the escrow fund. 3. Immediately following 2 above, send a letter to the IRS notifying them of the sale of the land and the City's remedial action in redeeming a portion of the outstanding bonds. If Council selects this option, City staff will work with the City's Bond Counsel and Financial Advisor (FA) to file the necessary IRS notification and to take the necessary steps to redeem the bonds. The FA would most likely have an escrow bid for treasury securities since the redemption date is not until February 1, 2025. This option would have an impact on the Debt portion of the tax rate beginning in fiscal year 2022/2023. Specifically, by redeeming a portion of the 2015 GO Refunding bonds, the amount needed to make the principal and interest payments on outstanding debt would be reduced. The debt portion of the tax rate is established at the level necessary to meet the principal and interest payments due during the fiscal year. Reducing the annual principal and interest payment provides a corresponding reduction in the debt portion of the tax rate. This assumes the City's overall assessed taxable property value does not decline and additional debt is not issued as both would impact the tax rate calculation. Legal Review: Both the City Attorney and Bond Counsel have reviewed this agenda item. Fiscal Impact: Dependent upon which resolution Council adopts. Recommendation: The Finance Department recommends approval of Option 2, Use proceeds to redeem the 2015 General Obligation Refunding Bonds. 46 RESOLUTION CALLING A PORTION OF THE CITY OF COPPELL, TEXAS, GENERAL OBLIGATION REFUNDING BONDS, SERIES 2015 FOR REDEMPTION PRIOR TO MATURITY; AND ENACTING OTHER PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE SUBJECT WHEREAS, the City of Coppell, Texas (the "City") previously issued its General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2015 (the "Bonds"); and WHEREAS, in the ordinance that authorized the issuance of the Bonds (the "Bond Ordinance"), the City reserved the option to redeem the Bonds maturing on or after February 1, 2026, in whole or in part, at a price equal to the principal amount of the Bonds so called for redemption plus accrued interest to the redemption date, beginning on February 1, 2025, or on any date thereafter; and WHEREAS, the City Council of the City (the "Council") finds and determines that it is necessary and in the best interests of the City to redeem the outstanding Bonds described below with funds available for such purpose in accordance with the terms hereof; and WHEREAS, it is officially found, determined and declared that the meeting at which this Resolution has been adopted was open to the public and public notice of the date, hour, place and subject of said meeting, including this Resolution, was given, all as required by the applicable provisions of Texas Government Code, Chapter 551; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COPPELL, TEXAS: Section 1.

The City's image as a professional, nonpartisan organization is critical to maintaining the respect of its constituents and operations free from personal opinions. Although the City recognizes that elected and appointed officials may choose to express themselves by posting personal information upon social media platforms or by making comments on sites hosted by other persons, groups or organizations, this right of expression should not interfere with the operation and governance of the City. That is, although the City acknowledges its officials have the First Amendment right to free speech, the right is not absolute when involving matters of official City business, issues or concerns. If an elected or appointed official conducts any City business or communication as an official from a personal account, professional account, or an account created for a board/committee/commission, officials should assume that any City -related communications will be considered a public record subject to the Texas Public Information Act as set forth in Chapter 552 of the Texas Government Code Sec. 552.002, as well as applicable portions of the records retention laws. Definitions 1. Personal Social Media Account: Personal accounts are intended strictly for individual people only and are not meant for commercial purposes. On a personal account, a user can post updates, share photos and videos, maintain a friends list, share interests and more. Personal profiles are typically associated with a person, as opposed to a position. 2. Professional Social Media Account: A professional accounts is a place where artists, public figures, businesses, brands, organizations, and nonprofits can connect with their fans, constituents, or customers. Professional profiles are typically associated with the position, office, or seat. 3. Campaign Social Media Account: This kind of account is used by candidates to share information about their platform and views. 4. Confidential information: Information is excepted from required public disclosure if it is information considered to be confidential by law, either constitutional, statutory, or by judicial decision. Such information may include but is not limited to certain personnel information, non-public information from criminal investigations and business trade secrets. a. Confidential information also includes statements or communications, whether express or implied, oral or written, between the city officers and employees and 54 their attorneys, work product of the city attorney or other attorneys representing the city, its officers and employees. 5. Non-public Information: Non-public information is information made available to elected and appointed officials that has not yet been made available to the general public. Non-public information may not be considered confidential by law, statute or judicial decision. Professional and Personal Conduct Standards 1. All officials are expected and required to conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the City's policies and standards of conduct, as outlined in Article 1-13 of the City's Code of Ordinances. 2. It is anticipated that from time to time, officials will have access to information that is considered privileged or confidential under the Texas Government Code. Such information is typically considered an exception to the public records law and may have specific penalties for inappropriate disclosure. By way of example, such information may include but is not limited to certain personnel information, non-public information from criminal investigations and business trade secrets. Officials may not disclose any confidential or privileged information about the City, its constituents, its employees, or its contractors. Officials must be particularly careful to protect against the inadvertent disclosure of confidential or privileged information. 3. In addition to confidential information, it is also expected that officials will occasionally have access information that is considered to be non-public. It is recommended that officials consider the impact of sharing this type of information publicly prior to posting. By way of example, such information may include but is not limited to, personnel retirement or resignation announcements. 4. Officials should be honest and accurate when posting information or news, and should quickly correct any mistakes, misstatements and/or factual errors in content upon discovery. Officials should not post or share information known to be false about the City, its employees, constituents, other public officials, suppliers, vendors, or contractors. S. Unless the official has been designated to serve as a spokesperson, officials should not represent themselves as a spokesperson for the City Council, a City board or committee, the City Administration, or any City department. Officials should not present personal opinions as the opinion of other Council members or the Council as a whole unless authorized. 6. Officials are expressly prohibited from using personal or professional social media to engage in any activity or conduct that violates federal, state, or local law. Officials are also prohibited from using professional social media accounts to circumvent election or campaign requirements, to campaign for re-election or endorse candidates for any public office at any level of government or political subdivision. 7. Officials are prohibited from deleting posts and related comments regarding any City - related matters to avoid violating record preservation requirements outlined in Texas Government Code Sec. 552. 55 8. Officials should be mindful that posting content regarding City -related matters could inadvertently result in the violation of the Open Meetings Law if enough other public officials respond or comment on the post, resulting in a quorum. If this occurs, the online conversation should immediately cease with no further posts by the officials and the City Secretary should be immediately notified. 9. Officials are prohibited from using social media to engage in any activity that constitutes a conflict of interest. Additional Best Practices and Guidelines for Elected and Appointed Officials The following best practices and guidelines are strongly recommended to ensure that the personal and professional use of social media by elected and appointed officials is done so in a responsible manner. 1. Public officials should separate personal social media accounts from professional social media accounts so that City -related matters and all public records generated from those posts are easily archived and to avoid city related information being intermingled with personal posts not related to City matters. a. If a professional social media account is created to disseminate city -related business, the records should be archived and retained. 2. Officials should exercise caution with respect to posted comments, particularly those concerning the City and the business of the City. 3. Officials are strongly encouraged to consider the potential impact of social media statements prior to posting. The City strives to be professional in its operations and processes. Posts that express favoritism and/or bias for or against any individual or group of individuals (e.g., based upon race, gender, national origin, sexual orientation, political affiliation, etc.), reflect poorly on the public official, as well as the City and its residents. Further, comments suggesting such treatment can expose the City to liability and legal costs. 4. Officials should be mindful that members of the public who may appear before the City Council as well as boards, commissions or committees come from all walks of life. Public comments, in any forum — including on personal and professional social media accounts — that contain racial slurs, profane language or acronyms for profane language, express bigotry toward a group based on race, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, party affiliation or any other legally protected classification may be considered conduct unbecoming. 5. Officials should consider whether liking, sharing, retweeting or commenting on any social media posts could be perceived as an endorsement of or about the City, its employees, constituents, other public officials, suppliers, vendors, or contractors relating to views on various issues, including political affiliation. 6. Officials should refrain from using social media accounts to communicate with City employees about City -related matters as this creates a public record on employees' personal accounts that must be retained per Public Records Law outlined in Texas Government Code Sec. 552. If elected officials want the City's official pages to respond to a social media inquiry, the following responses are suggested: 56 a. Twitter: "Tagging @CityofCoppell on your inquiry so staff may respond to you directly." b. Facebook: "Tagging @City of Coppell on your inquiry so staff may respond to you directly." c. Instagram: "Tagging @cityofcoppelltx on your inquiry so staff may respond to you directly." d. Other platforms, such as Nextdoor: "Please contact the City of Coppell directly so staff may respond to you. You may also submit your inquiry online by visiting ..as.°/Wnr...c�pll.11..,cy/.i/.ulkrmnii: or by calling the City of Coppell during business hours at 972-462-0022." 7. Public officials should be cautious in using official City -provided logos, taglines, symbols and photographs that belong to or are licensed by the City on personal social media sites. Elected and appointed officials choosing to use official City -provided photographs and identifying themselves as elected officials on personal social media sites should tailor communications on those sites accordingly. Records Retention Any city -related content (messages, posts, photographs, videos, etc.) created or received using a social media account is considered public record. As such, the following should be considered. 1. The City does not archive or manage social media accounts for elected or appointed officials. The official is solely responsible for the retention and archival of content published to individual accounts. 2. It is recommended that elected and appointed officials create a folder for city -related social media content. Officials should capture screenshots of city -related posts and save them in this folder. 3. Any posts that are deleted or hidden from an elected or appointed official's social media account for violation of the City's posted social media guidelines - whether the content was posted by the official or a member of the public - should be captured via screenshot and retained. Enforcement In recognizing that public service is time consuming and can involve complex matters, this policy is not intended to scrutinize or penalize a good faith misgiving or inadvertent mistake. Violation of this policy could result in a complaint that the elected or appointed official has violated the code of conduct outlined in Article 1-13 of the City's Code of Ordinances. Upon receipt of a complaint, the procedures outlined in Section 1-13.7 should be followed. 57 7� p L COPi: City of Coppell, Texas Master File Number: 2021-5950 File ID: 2021-5950 Type: Agenda Item Version: 1 Reference: File Name: Denton and Dallas Board of Directors 255 E.

Please provide the name, address and email of the nominees you selected. The District will send a questionnaire to each nominee requesting additional information. You do not have to nominate Michelle French, she will automatically be on the Board of Directors as an Ex -Officio member. • Before October 28th, the District will send out a comprehensive list of all the individuals who were nominated and the bios we received from them. Each entity will also be provided with the exact number of votes they have to cast. • Between October 28th - December 14th*, each entity may choose (by written resolution) the candidate or candidates of their choice. The entity may cast all their votes on one person, or spread them out among several candidates, it is up to the individual entity.
