report for August 2004. Micki Rundell
Discussion: Micki presented monthly report, on page 5, the sales tax collected
for July was 9.7%. This is a good indication of what to expect for the end of the
year. I also want to remind you that sales tax is collected two months in arrears.
YTD thru May is 13.9% this is lower than we budgeted but higher than projected
so we should end the year on a positive note on a sales tax collection prospective.
Action: None
D. Discussion and possible action regarding the Construction Progress Report (including but not

Discussion: Weaver gave updated on projects.
Tasus Way: Bids have been received. The bid will be coming to the GTEC Board

IH 35 U-Turn: Opened on Aug 31, 2004 still working on landscaping.
SE Arterial 1: Right-of way is just about completed.The preliminary alignment
is staked. The archaeological is completed and we are expecting the final
environmental report within the next couple of weeks.
Sidewalk Improvements: Contract is complete, TDLR - Texas Department
of License & Regulation, walk thru has been done. There were a few items that
we will have to address and these will be done within the next 30 days.
HWY 29 Rehab: Engineering is at TxDot for review. Revisions will be made over the
next three weeks. Construction to start February 2005. Q by Boecker: What does
this project include? A by Benz: This is reconstruction of the roadway from IH 35 to
River Chase Blvd. Includes the stormwater/drainage improvements in this area.
Q by Carr: Why does this have to be Rehab/Reconstructed, was it already in
need of repair or are we tearing it up due to construction? A by Briggs: This is
a State Funded project and is not a project for Simon. This is widening and
rehabilitation project. The roadway it self does not have available capacity to meet
the current traffic demands. Q by Carr: Is this a TxDot project that we are involved
in but don't have any control over it? A by Benz : We will be involved in
the construction meetings and in the process by TxDot is the owner of the contract.
We have an interlocal agreement. Q by Carr: Who does the coordination of utility
movement. A by Benz: City of Georgetown is required to have the utilities relocated
prior to February 2005 that is why we are including the water/wastewater into this
project. Electrical lines, Cox Cable, Verizon, Gas Company all need to relocate their
lines. These are all coordinated through the design engineer who has a contract with
TxDot.
SH 29 SW Bypass: Moving cautiously on the final schematic design calculations.
There were some environmental issues but should not present any major obstacles.
This should been resolved within the next couple of weeks. The archaeological
report is completed and along the proffered alignment there are no archaeological
issues that would require any major medication. As soon as the environmental
issues are resolved a meeting will be set up with the Railroad will be set up to go
over the plans with them. Q by Kirby: Will this still be finished in October? A by Briggs:
The last public meeting was scheduled for November, in October they are scheduled
to wrap up and make a presentation to the Board.
Action: None
E.Consideration and possible action seeking ways Georgetown might be able to enhance GTEC
revenue by reducing sales tax leakage. John Kirby and Mark Thomas
Discussion: Kirby introduced the item then turned it over to Thomas.
Kirby's concern on how much sales tax dollars we are missing out on. Such as
building materials, contractors get their lumber and supplies from Temple, Round
Rock, Austin, etc. and we - City of Georgetown - don't see any of the sales tax
dollars. Thomas from EcoDevo gave a presentation on Retail Market Place (Consumer
Retail). Explained the boundaries that he used and the items/areas where we are
seeing the most leakage from that geographical area. This is good information to
show potential businesses why it would be beneficial for them to come to Georgetown.
Action: None
F. Consideration and possible action on the future GTEC agenda items. Henry Carr and Jim Briggs
Discussion: Briggs gave information on upcoming/standard/legislative items that could be
presented to the Board.
Annual - TIP Process
- Budget
- Legislative changes
- Election of Officers - This must be done every March per GTEC Bylaws
Monthly - Financial
- Projects
- Minutes
Oct '04 -- SW Bypass
- Carls legal document
- Snell -- TIP Prioritize document
Mar - May '05 -- TIP
Q by Carr: Does the Board have to meet every month. A by Briggs: It is up to the Board.
If the Board has business to attend to then you should meet. If the Board does not meet
monthly items will be mailed out.
Q by Carr: SW Bypass - explain what happens in October. A by Briggs: HDR who has a
contract to conclude this October/November time frame. Will bring their final recommendations
to the Board. At that time the Board will have the opportunity to discuss issues associated
with the consultants - dollars, routings, etc. anything that is change HDR will go back
and make the recommended changes then produce a final document, then have a closing
project hearing - at this hearing they will take public input. The flow for this will be -
This Board, Public Hearing, Council.
Carr asked the present Board members if they would like to have fewer meetings that are fuller
or meet every month. The consensus of the Board members was to meet when we have a full
agenda. Again if the Board does not meet standard monthly items will be mailed out.
Action: None

Paul Brandenburg
Discussion: None
Action: Motion Savage second by Sansing to approve minutes as written. Approved 7-0
B. Presentation of the Georgetown Transportation Enhancement Corporation monthly financial
report for July 2004. Micki Rundell
Discussion: Rundell gave an overview of the monthly financial. Sales tax was back up.
Q by Boecker asked for a clarification on the dollar amounts - items were not
reconciling. A by Rundell - This could be because of timing, accrued expenses that
have not been paid - you have cash basis and accrual basis
Action: None
C. Discussion and possible action regarding the construction progress report (including but
not limited to items listed). Joel Weaver
Discussion: Weaver gave update on projects.
SE Arterial I: We have all of the Right of Entries. We have done some stacking, finished
with the field portion of the archaeology. We have started work with the Engineer to
insure that our alinement will work.
Sidewalk: Contract should be complete by end of month.
U-Turn @ Williams Dr.: Stripping to be done this week. The drop dead date to open
will be August 31 due to ribbon cutting. Q by Boecker: Will there be a delay in
opening the U-Turn due to the right hand turn lane off of Williams Dr.? A by Briggs
The right hand turn lane is tied to this project. They are trying to get this completed
so it can open when the U-Turn opens.
Southwest By-Pass: HDR are about 90% on the schematic design. This leaves us with
10% short, a lot of this is due to the fact that we have not been able to gain access to
these properties. The property owners are wanted to see a final alignment before they
give us access. Q by Kirby: What is the schematic design? and what will follow this?
A by Weaver: The schematic design is basically a way to asses the proposed alignment.
It also ensures that all of the archaeology & environmental studies have been done and
you will be able to build the project. After this is done there will be a submittal for approval
to TxDot, or Federal for a match component on funding.
Briggs updated board on two Economic Development projects.
Tasus: We do have the driveway cut. We have settled some of the easement
concerns with Georgetown Rail Road. With this being accomplished this project
should move right along.
SH29: Enough right of way has been secured that Round Rock awarded the
relocation of their raw water line that is on the north side of SH29. This is the
first step in widening SH29 is now under contract and will begin Sept. 2004.
Once this starts all other utilities will need to relocate their utilities through the
fall. About 80 - 85% of the right of way has been negotiated.
Action: None

Policy for fiscal year 2004/05. Micki Rundell

stated that these figures are very conservative, we look at a rolling average, I feel that
everything here is attainable - there is no precise way to project the sales tax revenue.
Q by Boecker: Why is CR265/Hacia Los Lobos being up off for 2 yrs. I would think that
the completion of this road would help alleviate the traffic congestion on Williams Dr./IH35?
A by Briggs: Road way projects are very time consuming. We still need right of way, and
at this time we feel that acquiring it will take some time. This is also tied to the completion
of the improvements on HWY 29.
Action:
Motion by Kirby to remove "Hobby Road" project. No second motion fails
Motion by Kirby to remove the Lakeway Bridge project. No second motion fails
Motion by Savage. second by Sansing to approve the 04/05 GTEC Project List.

Minutes
Regular Meeting
Meeting called to order by Carr at 2:01
A.Consideration and possible action to appoint Board Officers consistent with Section 3.02
of the GTEC Bylaws.Paul Brandenburg
Nomination: Snell nominated Joe Savage for Secretary.
Discussion that motion and seconded was not needed.
Board Approved 6-0 (Sansing not present for this vote)
B.Consideration and approval of the minutes from the regular meeting held June 16, 2004.
Paul Brandenburg
Discussion: Carr had a correction on Item A. Poquette seconded motion rather than Eason
Action: Motion made by Kirby, seconded by Savage to approve the minutes with the amendment
to Item A of the June 2004 minutes. Approved 6-0 (Sansing not present for this vote)
Correction was made to the June 16, 2004 minutes.
C. Presentation of the Georgetown Transportation Enhancement Corporation monthly
financial report for June, 2004. Micki Rundell/Laurie Brewer
Discussion: Brewer gave update of the monthly financial reports. The sales tax numbers
are lower than projected, there is some concern here, however, we are watching this
very closely. Q by Snell: Do you have any analysis on what is happening? A by Brewer:
Overall, sales tax is low all around the country. W e have also disbursed about $500,000
this month. Q by Snell: On pg C-6 the GTEC Debt Capacity Chart. Does the debt capacity
differ from amount owed? A by Brewer: This is the annual debt payment that we could
afford to make. Q by Boecker: The debt service capacity is 1.5 times the operating revenue,
but is over 2 times your coverage? A by Brewer: Our coverage ratio is 1.5 times our debt
service payment. In any give year we need to bring in at least 1.5 times what our debt
service payment is.
Q by Sansing: Looking at the check register, check #10430 written to Simon, What was
this for? A by Brewer: We were reimbursing them for the monies they spent to TxDot, Etc.
We paid them with the up front money that they gave us ($700,000).
Action:None
D. Discussion and possible action regarding the Construction Progress Report (including
but not limited to items listed). Joel Weaver
Discussion: Weaver gave update on the Progress Reports.
Sidewalks: Good progress has been made in the last couple of months. Briggs commented
that when the 4B Corporation was started legislation, at that time, allowed for sidewalks as
part of some of the inter-local transportation systems to be funded in part with GTEC Funds.
With the legislation that passed we will no longer be able to fund with GTEC dollars.
Q by Snell: If a sidewalk was an integral part of the road that is being put in, can this be funded,
as long as it is a qualified 4B roadway? A by Briggs: When this comes up, we will more than
likely need the attorney generals opinion. This will need to be done prior to approval. The
reason we have to do this, is due to the prior abuses, of these funds, by other cities has
caused this change in legislation.
I35 -U-Turn: Asphalt is down on the West side. TxDot considers a project substantially complete
when vehicles can drive on it. The schedule completion date (per contract) was middle of
September, we are ahead of this schedule and anticipating this will be open by mid August.
SE Arterial 1: We have met with the archaeologist today. Center line staking is done. We
are starting the surveys and archaeology.
Southwest By-pass: We have started the environmental & archaeology on parts of this project.
We still do not have the right-of-entry for the Sneed property. Briggs commented, now that
we have started on the environmental portion, we the Board, may hear that the U.S. Fish &
Wildlife, have already heard from groups concerning the karst and karst features. Briggs
informed them that this is why we are doing a feasibility study to determine if the route is
possible, we don't want to have to relocate the karst or invertebrates. Q by Boecker: This is
Southwest By-pass is the same as project #14 on the Tip? A by Polasek: Yes. Q by Boecker:
This may not be a GTEC project correct? A by Briggs: Listed as potential GTEC funding.
Ties to primary jobs - a portion of it maybe not but a portion of it is. This is combined. This
project is very important to HEB. If this project does not happen, then they will look for other sites.
Action: None
E. Consideration and possible action to approve the proposed GTEC Fiscal & Budgetary
Policy for fiscal year 2004/05. Micki Rundell/Laurie Brewer
Discussion: Brewer reviewed/explained the GTEC fiscal & budgetary policy. Because
GTEC issues Bonds and has a considerable amount of money that flows through this
organization, we feel that you need to adopt this policy. This policy mirrors the City
policy and provides guidelines for budgeting and financial administration.
Snell wanted a clarification on the 90 day contingency fund. Once created, it is
there, but it is not a recurring annual item. But, when dollars are used from this fund,
Those dollars will be replaced. Is that correct. A by Brewer: Yes.
Discussion followed to see if the fund could be used for "undetermined capital projects"
Would like to have a set amount or a percentage set aside so developers would know that
there is some funding available. If the amount is not spent in that budget year it would
not accumulate - would never be higher than the original set amount. The use of these
funds would be for small one-time projects, such as Tasus etc. Of course the larger
projects would have to be bonded out. Boecker agrees with this idea. Snell also
suggested that 25% of the sales tax budget (approx. $500,000) be set aside. This would
not get any higher. If money was used that would be the only money replaced - Such as
$200,000 was used then the following year we would only put $200,000 in to bring the
set amount back to $500,000. Consensus was this is an excellent idea.
Action: Motion by Snell, seconded by Sansing to approve the Budgetary Policy with
changes made per discussion, and to bring back Policy for review at the August 2004
meeting.
DISCUSSION PRIOR TO THE VOTE: Sansing wonders if we should increase our coverage
ratios to be higher than the 1.5. Brewer answered: Typical Bond covenants requires 1.2
and we are at 1.5, so we should be OK at 1.5 and there is no need to increase the
coverage ratio. Sansing agreed with Brewer, coverage ratio did not need to be increased.
Approved 7- 0
F.Discussion and possible action to direct staff in preparation of the 2004/05 Interlocal
Service Agreement between GTEC and the City for Administrative Services.
Micki Rundell/Laurie Brewer
Discussion: Brewer reviewed/explained the interlocal service agreement. The current contract
is for $8,100 per month for administrative support. We are proposing that the Board approve
funding of 50% of the proposed Transportation Engineer position. This engineer will handle
just GTEC/Capital projects. Briggs explained the need for this position. At present 6 - 8
hours of staff time, per day, is spent on GTEC items. We need another position (similar
to Joel's) to handle just transportation.
Lengthy discussion on how GTEC gets charged for these fees, how staff hours are accounted
for, etc.
Action: Motion by Sansing, seconded by Savage, to approve the Interlock Agreement
for administrative services with the addition of the $48,000/year for Transportation Engineer.
This would equate to $12,100/month. Approved 7-0
Finance will bring back, the Fiscal and Budgetary Policy, updated Interlock
Agreement, and the Proposed Budget, to the regular August meeting.
G. Consideration and possible action on the Transportation Improvement Plan.
Ed Polasek.
Discussion: Polasek gave an update of the TIP. From the last board meeting, the members were
to review and rank the TIP projects and returned scores to Polasek. Only 3 score sheets were
returned. Discussion on the projects and the scoring.
Action: Motion by Snell, seconded by Sansing, approve this list with the ability to send a letter
to the Attorney General to get opinion if projects are eligible for GTEC funding. Approved 7-0
Amended Motion #1: Motion by Snell, seconded by Kirby to move Project #23 to the non-eligible
list. Approved 7-0
Briggs presented a project for access between the Burger King and Tractor Supply/Hobby Lobby,
on IH35. The apartment residents need to a way to get to and from HEB, Hobby Lobby and
Tractor Supply without having to go through town or around 360 degrees on IH35. This project
will be very costly due to the drainage issues. We could expect cost to be about $900,000 for
engineering and construction.
Amended Motion #2: Motion by Snell, seconded by Sansing to amend the plan to add project
"Hobby Project" authorizing $900,000 to be added to the GTEC TIP for 2004/05.
Approved 6-1 (Kirby opposed)
Motion by Kirby to remove Project #10 from list. No second. Motion fails
Motion by Sansing to adjourn. Approved 7-0
Meeting adjourned at 3:57 pm
Adjournment
The meeting was adjourned at 10:30 PM.
