Dear Mayor Wilsson, Mayor Pro-Ten Pen

nn and City Council Mem
mbers:
I am
m pleased to o submit to you the Fiscal Year 20
018 Annual Budget. The Budget iss for Octobe er 1, 2017
Septtember 30, 2018 and d outlines th
he revenuees and expe enditures fo
or the Gene eral Fund, Utility Fundd,
Capiital Improve ement Fund ds, Econom mic Development Fund, Debt Servvice Funds,, Hotel Occcupancy Taxx
Fundd, and the Citys mino or funds. Thhe City is in
i sound financial sha ape and we e continue to maintain n
consservative fisscal manageement. Fornney is blesse
ed to be in the favorab
ble position of new oppportunities in
n
resid
dential deve elopment an nd in commmercial deveelopment. These growth h opportunities are prooviding for a
stron
ng economyy, which in turn, increases the property valu ues within the
t City. Th he increase in propertyy
values providess additional revenue within
w the General Fund d and allow
ws the City the ability to
t lower the e
propperty tax ratee.
Growwth also prooduces challlenges thatt will require

e detailed discussions
d and financiial planningg for the Cityy
Coun ncil and sta
aff. The De
epartment Directors
D haave drafted a Five Yea ar Plan of their
t deparrtments that
discusses wherre they see their departments, what is neede ed to get the
ere, and wh
hat it will loook like oncee
theyy arrive.
The first lesson in the Five Year Plan iss that the needs
n far ou
utweigh the funding abiilities of the
e City. This iss
where the detailed plannin ng will comee into focus as we conttinue to build upon Forrneys promising future e.
The hard decisioons that neeed to be maade will bene efit all of Fo
orney for yea
ars to come.
The second lessson is an understandin ng that thesse plans nee

ed to be revviewed and updated annually. Thee
plans need to account for the
t many ch hanges that Forney will face in the coming years and also be aware o
of
the other
o deparrtmental nee
eds within th
he organization to ensuure accountaability.
Growwth is posinng significan nt challenge

es and oppo ortunities within
w our uttility departm
ments as well.
w The Cityy
has an aging in nfrastructure system th hat is comp peting with the new grrowth. Main ntenance an nd upgradess
needd to occur while we are also looking at devveloping new w lines for water, wasste water, and a buildingg
addiitional suppport facilitiess (pump sta
ations, elevvated storagge tanks, an nd lift statio
ons). This puts
p a strainn
uponn the system m, both fina ancially and
d on the inffrastructure.. This is part of the reaason for thee utility rate
e
incre
ease requesst to addrress these needs
n and the rising coost of water and wastew water servicces from our
suppplier, the No
orth Texas Municipal
M Wa
ater Districtt.
Forn
ney saw some significcant leadersship change es during the
t past ye ear and ha as provided some new w
oppoortunities ass well. The City
C has a new
n City Manager, Assisstant City Manager,
M Cityy Attorney, Police
P Chieff,
Publlic Works Director,
D andd a new Caapital Projeccts Manager. These ne ew leaders along with the existingg
leaders are crea ating a neww culture of Servant Leaadership within the orgganization. The
T premise e of Servant
Lead
dership is serving ou ur commun nity with humility,
h professionalism, selflesssness, diligence and d
compassion. Th he Citys emmployees aree the key too making th
his happen and
a I believve that toge ether we willl

exce
eed all expe
ectations. However, thee City must also make a commitm ment to our employees in regard to o
compensation and
a benefitss. I believe we
w are doingg this with our
o current Compensati
C ion Study an
nd the hiringg
of a new bene efits adminiistrator. Toggether, we will have the
t tools necessary
n to
o make solid financia al
decisions conce

b health care and benefits for
our employees.

Utilitty Fund Revvenue

Utilitty Revenue has faced a number of o challenge es during thhe current fiiscal year and will likely end 2017 7
4% below origin nal estimates. It has been
b a wet year, with frequent heavy rain occurring
o un
ntil mid-Julyy.
Whe ere revenue normally begins to inccrease in May, M with Jun
ne and Julyy seeing largger increasees, this year
the three
t month period ha as remained d relatively flat. At the time of thee proposed budget, the ere is still a
chan nce that revvenues for th
he remainin ng portion off July, Augusst, and September will recover som mewhat, but
with nothing to indicate thaat this will be
e the case, the estimattes will rema ain flat for now.

a expend ditures are budgeted
b in the period in which thee liability is incurred. Alll
propprietary fund

of depreciation and encum mbrances. Depreciatio on of fixed assets is not

FPDD Decision Making

M Moddel
The men and women of the e Forney Poolice Department must make decissions every day d that afffect the livess
of citizens and affect
a the ou
utcomes of many circumstances. The T departm ment develo oped a decission makingg
mod del that assists them inn making de ecisions and
d guiding discretion. Within
W this model
m is the
e philosophyy
that streetlevel decision makers
m are in the best position to weigh the critical
c varia
ables of an issue, applyy
the philosophy
p o this mode
of el, and take action.
Finally, it is und
derstood tha at with any opportunity
o to act for or
o against a citizen, in the best inte
erests of no
ot
only the individu uals involve
ed and the community,
c there is a risk of makin
ng the wrongg decision. The
T focus o of
the department
d t is not only on the appllication of th
he law to a circumstanc
c ce, but also the understtanding that
the letter
l of the law and thee intent of the law shou uld be balannced and eqqually applieed, without favoritism
f or
blind
dness.

The Forney Fire e Departme ent has bee en serving the

e
operrating out ofo two fire sttations with h 27 paid firefighters, a Fire Marshal and a deputy
d inspeector, and a
Chie
ef, Asst. Chie ef, and administrative assistant.

serves an 80 sq. s mile are ea of northw west Kaufm
man County whose bou undaries arre roughly those
t of the
e
Forn
ney I.S.D. The Town off Talty and the Kaufm man Countyy Emergenccy Services District # 6 (ESD #6 6)
conttracts with the t City of Forney
F F Protecttion. These two entitiess, the land within the city
for Fire c limits o of
Forn
ney, and the e property along
a I.H. 20
2 within the city limitss of Mesquiite comprise e the 80 sqq. mile area a
prevviously menttioned.
The ESD #6 is the

t propertyy within the FISD bound
daries that is
i not part of
o the city limits of Forn
ney, Talty, or
Messquite. It may
m be refe erred to as the unincoorporated county
c propperty of our area. Ma any schoolss,
churrches, busin
nesses, and major roaddways can be
b found in almost anyy part of ourr fire protection area so o
that is why we are
a a solid and vibrant community.
c
The contract witth the Town n of Talty req

quires them to pay the City of Forney .03 centss per $100 valuation o
of
theirr property. This
T year the City of Forney is sche
eduled to reeceive approoximately $51,864 fromm Talty. Thee
ESD #6 pays th he City of Fo
orney .02 ce ents per $1000 valuation of their property. Forney is sccheduled to o
rece
eive approxim mately $380 0,555 from them this year.
y
In adddition to th
he monetary payment fromf ESD #6,
# the fire departmentt also utilize es several vehicles
v that
theyy have purch hased. The latest one iss a new $60 00,000 pum mper that wa as placed in service in the
t spring o of
2017 at Station n # 2. The fire department often re elies on muttual aid assistance from m the neighboring citiess
when a large sccale emergency or ma anpower sho ortage is enncountered. Our departtment curre ently has an n
autoomatic aid agreement
a with
w Terrell Fire
F Departm ment that allows them to send a staffed pump per to assisst
Fornney on a hou use or build
ding fire andd Forney in turn will se end assistannce to Terre ave a similar
ell if they ha

2 if requessted and the ey will respoond to assisst
us as
a needed. TheT other sm maller fire departments
d s such as Crandall,
C Terrrell Volunte

are often

Wha at strengthss does your departmen nt provide too the organization? Too the comm munity?
The Forney Fire e Dept. provvides the ab bility to resp
pond to moost any call for
f assistan nce from ou ur citizens or
visito
ors on a 244 hr. a day--365 days a year basiss. To me, this is a very v strongg offering knowing
k that
whattever issue or problem m arises, a simple pho one call too 9-1-1 will send outt our firefighhters to givee
assisstance. We e have a va ast array off tools and equipment along with training an nd experien nce that can n
assisst someone e. When I sp peak of "asssistance to a citizen" this can be fo
or an emerggency or non n-emergencyy
call, what some eone thinks is an emerrgency but really isn't, or a public service req c help our
quest. We can
community with h fires, emerrgency medical issues, and rescues. We can assist
a with unlocking
u ca
ars, getting a
kids football offf of their ho
ouse roof, sp peaking to local students about fire safety, and most anything
a you
u
can imagine. Ou ur firefighters understand that eve en though we may not beb able to remedy
r eve
ery problem m,
we can
c at least go out and make a co ontact with the
t citizen and
a try to getg the rightt person the ere who can n
solvee the issue. I believe th
his is our gre
eatest strenggth.
Wha at opportunities are avvailable to th he departmment?

Begiinning in Jan nuary 2017 7 our departtment opporrtunities willl look like th
his: Two fire
e stations wiill be staffed
d
and respondingg to calls in ouro 80 sq. milem protection area consisting of a rural/urba an populatio on. This areaa
conttains numerous majorr highways, state and county roads, and rail r service as well ass a growingg
popuulation and large schoo ol district. The
T amount and types of emergen ncies our fire
efighters respond to on n
any given day could
c be a 4,000
4 sq. ftt. house fire
e, a multi-acre grass and brush fire requiringg mutual aid d
m many citie
from es, transpo ortation hazzardous-matterial emerggencies, ve ehicle or inddustrial acccidents with h
seveeral patients requiring both ground and helicopter am mbulances, or showingg several hundred firsst
grad
ders the fire e engine. A large city firre departme ent will not generally afford
a each of their fire
efighters thiss
type of experien nce. A small fire departtment dealss with almosst any type of emergen ncy and non n-emergencyy
whereas a large e departmen nt will have specialized d divisions dealing
d with their own isssues. Overr my career I
was able to gain more exp perience in certain
c areaas by being a Forney vo olunteer fire
eman than what I dealt
with in a largerr metro are ea departme ent. So, ourr firefighterss have the opportunityy to be trained for and d
pracctice fire serrvice skills such
s as fire suppressio on, emergen ncy medicine e, various re
escue techn niques, swifft
wateer rescue, fire
f inspecttion, public speaking, wildfire cerrtification, incident
i maanagement, along with h
attennding local, state, and national tra aining schools. We havve the start of a good career
c path opportunityy
with six lieutena ant position ns and six driver/opera
d ator positions being avvailable whe en Station #2
# opens ass
well as an invesstigator in th he fire marshal's office.
We also offer thet opportu unity for tho

ose interestted in servin
ng as a vollunteer fireffighter. Sincce the earlyy
1900's the fire protection for the Forn ney community was provided by volunteer
v firremen until 2001 when n
we hired
h our firsst paid persson. Since th
hen the paidd members of the depaartment havve steadily grown
g to our
pressent staffingg level, howeever, the membership of the volun nteers has declined.
d Fiffteen years ago we had d
apprroximately 303 voluntee er memberss and todayy that number has go one down to o 12. I beliieve severa

and training reqquirements has put mo ore time co onstraints on the members, newer prospectivve memberss

us years so it becomess very difficu ult to recruit those whoo
wantt to serve. Volunteer recruitmentt and retention is a ch hallenge tha at is faced by fire depa artments alll
acro
oss the natioon. So, we e are not aloone in this issue. As we w go forward I believe e it will be necessary
n to
o
coorrdinate with the volunteeer memberrship and discuss how they t can be est serve as fire protection partnerss
with the Forney Fire Department. We W can certainly utilizze those members
m whho are qua alified to do
o
emeergency work k alongside the paid firefighters butb we also may need to t open up new opportunities such h
as a "support role". This would allo ow memberrs to assistt on an em mergency scene while doing lesss
hazaardous workk such as medical
m rehab, directingg traffic, assisting at the

safe

e Much le ess trainingg and physiccal ability is required fo or support personnel
p and this mayy
openn up opportuunities for a larger grou

Wha at is the gre

eatest threa at(s) to yourr departmen nt? What ca an be done about it?
I believe the greatest
g cha
allenge to our
o departm ment in the e near future is the growing
g pop
pulation and d
increeasing buildd out of thee Forney are ea. Most prrojections in ndicate thatt Forney will continue to t grow and d
expaand for the foreseeable
f e future. Thee Forney Scchool Districct boundary is common nly considereed to be thee
Fornney commun nity and preesently has a population n of roughlyy 37,000. Fo orney E.D.C
C. informatio
on estimatess
that this area may
m grow to overo 55,000 0 by 2021. This
T is in lin ne with N.C.TT.C.O.G. esttimates. It iss reasonable e
to asssume that our calls fo or service will increase along with the t numberr of citizens and buildin ngs. This willl
requuire an increease in perssonnel, equipment, and fire station ns if we want to keep ou ur responsee times closee
to orr under five minutes. Off course, the ere are options to look at that mayy assist our response re equirementss
suchh as Careflitte continuinng to provid de ambulance service at a the curre ent or greatter level and
d automaticc
mutu ual aid agreeements witth neighboring cities. But,
B our citizzens will expect the Fo orney Fire Deept. to carryy
the majority of the respon nsibility in providing
p seervice and this ultimattely calls fo or more perrsonnel and d
equipment. As personnel
p and
a operatio on costs increase this will
w put an added a burdeen on the budget of the e
city since otherr departments will like ely be facinng the same challenge es. So, look
king at the big picture e,
finannces will prrobably deteermine how w we procee ed within the e next five years. To address
a the question oof
whatt can be do one about th he populatio on challenge e, this is something tha at we have little control over so wee
havee to manage e the circum
mstances tha at go along with the gro owth. As stated earlier, over the ne ext five yearss
the fire department will needn to inccrease theirr personnell, equipmen nt, and buildings. Thiss should be e
attaiinable by a reasonable plan that adds the nee eded items eache budge et year according to the
e importance e
of th
he item. Succh as makin ng a new laadder truck a priority ne ext year and d planning for
f more pe ersonnel thee
follo
owing year iff that is whhat can besst be afforded by the city c budget. I believe itt is importa ant from the e
stanndpoint of our
o firefightters and citizens to at a least havve a plan to t grow our departme ent with the e
unde erstanding that
t everythhing we need d will take several
s yearss to fulfill.

The Fire Marsha al's office cu
urrently perfforms the fo ollowing task ks:

To meet

artment ope erations and d

ministrative divisions:
d
Relocate e Central Sttation to a viable
v locattion south of

enough space
s to ho
ouse the engine
e commpany and medic unit that is currrently at Cen ntral Station
n
along witth an addittional engin ne and med dic unit that would be needed to efffectively resspond to the e
area thaat Central Sttation will be responsib ble for. The station wou uld need to be a four bay
b structure e
that will allow an ammbulance to o be housed there also. It can be asssumed tha at a private service
s such
h
as Carefflite will continue to proovide ambulance servicce to our arrea. The cu urrent arranggement that
our coun nty and city has with Ca areflite is working very well and is cost efficie ent for our city.
c I see no
o
reason tot change this
t processs at this timme. Note: If the current Central Sttation is relocated, the e
building that is vaca ated can bee utilized ass office spacce for the fiire departm ment adminisstration and d
fire marsshal 1 s office as well as
a storage fo or reserve equipment
e a vehicless. A cost of $6
and $ million or
more ma ay be expectted to build a new Centtral Station if constructtion costs co ontinue to in
ncrease and d
dependin ng on the siize of the buuilding and land cost s.. It is difficult to estimate an accurrate price onn
this type
e of building since consttruction cossts normally increase ea ach year.
Station # 2 staffing should be upgraded

u to
o 8 firefighte
ers per shiftt (a total of 24). They will
w operate a
pumper with three personnel, a rescue/m medic unit with two pe ersonnel, and a ladde er truck with h

f equipmennt for emerge
ency operations is essentiial in order to

community it is certainly an n ambitious one. If follo owed as preesented, the
e fire dept. would
w increa
ase from 322
emp ployees in eaarly 2017 too 65 in 2022. The finan nce departmment roughlyy estimatess that the sta
arting salaryy
plus benefits foor a firefightter will be around
a $788,865 per ye ear in 2022
2. This estimmate is usinng a 5% payy
increease for eacch year. So,, if you multtiply the $778,865 time es 64 emp ployees thatt equals to $5,047,360
$ 0
for the salary budget. Of co ourse, this is
i not considering older employeess who make e more due to longevityy
and hold higherr ranks but this is only listed as an n example. Other expennses related d to departmment growth h
will increase
i alsso such as uniforms,
u tra
aining, facility & equipm
ment mainteenance, etc.
SAFER Grant
On July 14, 201 17 the fire department
d was notifiedd that they had
h been aw warded a SA AFER Grant (Staffing for
Adeqquate Fire & Emergenccy Response e) from FEMMA. This will allow us to hire 6 fire efighters staarting in the
e
2018 budget with 75% of their t salary and benefitts paid for by
b the grantt for two yeaars and 35% % paid in the e
third
d year. (A fu unding chart is include ed on a se eparate she eet). By add ding these 6 firefighteers our dailyy
stafffing will incrrease to 11 on duty eacch shift. We e will have 5 personnell assigned ata Central Sttation and 6
assiggned at Station #2. Th his will allow
w us to operaate four emergency ressponse vehiccles when we w are at fulll
stafffing levels (111 personnel) and thre ee vehicles if
i we drop too a minimum m staffing le
evel (9 perssonnel). The e
incre
eased perso onnel level will
w allow the e ladder truck to be connsistently sttaffed and available
a forr service.
How w will you knnow you are e there and what will itt take to sustain it?
Therre may be several
s wayss of determining when we have re eached a suuccessful gooal as it rela
ates to good
d
fire and
a EMS prrotection. An A easy one e is to try to
o reach a peerson neediing emergency assistan nce within a
given amount of o time. A rresponse timme of unde er five minutes from the
e time the fire
f engines are notified d
untill the time th
hey arrive on
n scene is a good goal to strive forr. Consisteently meetin
ng this time average willl

ar Fire
indiccate we havve reached thet expectation that wa as set. Currrently, the average
a respponse time for a Forneyy
Fire Dept. emerrgency vehiccle to reach the scene of an emerggency is 5 minutes,
m 577 seconds. (tthis number
is fro
om a one year
y period of July 18,2016 throu ugh July 18,, 2017). OtherO indicaators a fire department
shouuld strive for are in areaas of non-emergency activities.
a W must be sure
We s we are e meeting our businesss,
schoool, and chuurch inspecttion requiremments each year. Are our public ed ducation req quests beingg taken care
e
of? Are all train
ning needs and
a requirem ments for th he employeees being me et? If not, th
hen proper adjustments
a s
shouuld occur too accomplish these goa als. Anothe er way to kn
now if we arre there is through
t feed-back from
m
the city
c manage er, the city council, andd the citizens. These are the gro oups the firee department works for
and they will ultimately
u te
ell you whaat they want to see from f their fire department. When you can n
reassonably mee et their requuests and exxpectations then many goals will ha ave been met.
Summmary
The City of Forn ney and its surrounding
s g communityy continues to grow in population,
p vehicles, annd buildingss.
In 20016 the firee departmen nt responded to over 4,000 calls fo or service an
nd they will go over thaat amount byy
the end of 201 17. This avverages to almost 11 calls per day d for our personnel to answer. There are e
frequently two or o three calls occurringg at the sam me time stre etching our response units
u thinly. As you willl
noticce by the veehicle chart,, our fleet iss aging and needs to be e updated too the latest equipment available to o
assuure safety, efficiency,
e and
a reduced d maintenan nce costs. Thankfully, we were able to receiive a SAFER R
grannt for 6 fireffighters thiss year which h will greatlyy improve our
o on-duty staffing butt there will be on goingg
need ds in the neext several years
y as notted in the plan
p that hass been pressented. Beiing able to upgrade our
stafffing and equipment forr the future e will offer the best value for our citizens
c wheen it comess to meetingg

Fiscaal Year 20117 was a diffficult one fo

or City Hall. Long term issues in th he downstaiirs restroomms worsened d
and lead to the discovery of plumbing issues with the water heater
h and sewer
s lines beneath

e building.
In th
he restrooms the floorss were regra aded and a pvc liner wa as installed to prevent water damage to wallss
and floor in surrounding arreas in the event
e of future floodingg. New flooring was insttalled in portions of the
e
restrrooms. All to
oilets were replaced wiith high pressure comm mercial toileets. The watter heater was
w removed d
and replaced anda the sew wer lines beeneath the mop sink in the water heater clo oset were dug
d out and d
repaaired. Waterr damage frrom all thre ee issues re esulted in the
t need to o repair the e walls and replace thee
floorrs in the arrea and repplace the cabinetry
c in the kitcheen and storage areas. At the sam me time, an n
autoomobile drovve through the front do oors at City Hall, resultting in the need

Wha at is unique about the IT I Department?
The IT departme ent is uniqu
ue, in that itt has the oppportunity to o make everry other dep partment within the Cityy
more e efficient and
a effective e through th he proper usse of techno ology. While not a deppartment tha at has much h
direcct interactio
on with the public, we canc and sho ould enable all other de epartments to deliver services
s in a
more e efficient way.
w Our effforts can make
m life bettter for citizzens, our organization more
m efficie
ent and helpp
attra
act businesss/developm ment to Forn ney. The IT Department is responssible for ma aking sure thhe City usess
technology to ouro benefit, while beingg mindful of o costs and d the constaant change e in technology. The ITT
Depa artment strives to stayy informed of o the associated trend ds in the Government sector, both regulatoryy
and industry drriven, while looking forr cost effecttive ways to o be more efficient an nd meet the e technologyy
needds of our em mployees, cittizens and businesses.
b
Why? Evveryone usess technologgy these dayys. It is our job j to understand how to integrate e technologyy
across departments
d s seamlessly. Compute ers and softtware are expected
e tod
day to be ass reliable ass
the old analog
a phon
ne we all grrew up with in our hom mes. IT is thhe only depa artment tha at can make e
this happpen within our
o offices, in i the field and
a across the t community.
Whaat strengthss does your departmen nt provide to

o the organization?
I be
elieve an ITT department must ha ave a greatt customer service atttitude. I see
s this in my current
depaartment, but believe there is room
m for improvvement. We e also must have a stro
ong IT know wledge and a
desire to grow that knowleddge. We posssess that today,
t but not as much as I would like
l to see.
Wha at opportunities are avvailable to th

he departm ment?
This is a big on
ne! We have so much room here to grow. We W can be th he champio ons of changge. We can n
showw all other departmentts how to do d more witth their tech hnology. WeW can disccover, demo onstrate and
d
implement tech hnology thatt makes oth hers more efficient
e at their job and providess the transp parency and
d
inforrmation the public demmands. Specifically, we e can help in
ntegrate mo ore city busiiness processses as welll
as improve acccess to in nformation for all de epartments,, citizens and develo opers/busin nesses. Thee
conssolidation off and increa
ased utilizattion of GIS is a huge opportunity
o with the Citty. IT does not have to
o
own GIS, but we e can certain
nly be a cata
alyst towardds the growtth of GIS utilization and
d efficiency.
Whaat is the gre

eat threat(s)) to your de epartment?
Cybe
er security is probably our single greatest
g threat. While much of th
he citys info
ormation is open to the
e
publlic domain, the threat isi still very real that a cyber attack can impede the usagge of our daata/systemss
and cause havo oc in unforesseen ways.

Whe ere do you see

s your dep partment inn 5 years?
It is my desire to see the IT department viewed as a valuable partner who bringss meaningfu ul input andd
assisstance to all other dep partments. Too many times,t IT is seen as a mere necesssity and no ot an actua
al
business partne er that can help other departments
d s. While the necessity part is certtainly true, it should no
ot
definne us. We have
h to be more than a necessity.. We should d be a value
ed businesss partner that takes the e
timee to listen to
o and underrstand the needs
n of evvery departm
ment in the city and briings techno ology to bear
that can assist each deparrtment with their goals.. IT will be responsible e for makingg sure we ge et a seat at
the table
t early in projects, policy meettings and otther applica
able areas in
n order to haave the prop per input.
Wha
at will it tak
ke to get the ere?
Equipme ent* A con ntinued inveestment in keeping tecchnology reffreshed and d reliable. IT has put in n
place pla ans for a roolling 5 year refresh of PCs and inffrastructure. Continued d commitme ent to these
e
costs, ass well as pro oven emergiing technolo ogies will bee critical.

Computer reffresh yearlyy costs are approximate
a ely $15,000 0 This is based

reefresh rate
S
Server refressh costs are approximattely $10,00 00 per year Based on a 20% refre esh rate
M
Many of thee IT refresh needs will be rolled into an ope erating leasse, allowingg the City to o
budget more e consistently and allow wing a greate er flexibility for IT to resspond to new w needs.
The IT Strate egic plan calls for us to start
s savingg/budgeting for a buried d fiber netw work at $75K K
per buried mile.
m Given the
t stabilityy and perforrmance of our o wirelesss WAN, I believe the cityy
ca an exist on a Wireless WAN
W for ma any years to come. The e current wirreless WAN cost the cityy
approximately $15K. We W should plan on rep placing thiss infrastructture, at the same costt,
w
within 3-4 yeears. IT is already in disscussions with a new ve endor to plan for this WAN W refresh.
Inn 2-3 years,, we will nee ed to do ann upgrade of o our phone e system. ThisT will like
ely include a
reefresh of all our handssets. The cost c for thiss phone sysstem upgrad de can be as much ass
$100,000, depending
d upon our nee ed/desire to o include vid deo conferencing.
W need to bring
We b ourselves into com mpliance wiith Microsoffts software e licensing. This should d
be done in conjunction
c with an upggrade to Wiindows 10 and a Office 2016 2 at the e user levell.
This project should
s be sttarted in FY 2018 and will w cost app proximately $15,000 - $20,000.

Wha at is unique about yourr departmen nt?

Publlic Works is the go to departmentt of the city.. Whenever there is som
mething that needs to be
b done that
is exxtra, such ass moving furrniture or ha
anging lightss, we get the call.
Why? Wellgetitdonee.
Wha

We are
a supportiive of other departments and to ou
ur citizens. We
W have tale
ent, experie
ence and fle
exibility.
Whaat opportunities are avvailable to th

he departmment?
To grow and exp
pand as the city continu ues to grow.. To take on new and ch
hallenging roles.
Wha at is the gre

eat threat(s)) to your deepartment?
Lackk of organizaation and laack of consiistency. Lacck of space for equipme ent and perrsonnel. Our equipment
is cu
urrently scatttered over three different locationns, one of which
w is inacccessible du
uring bad we eather. Lackk
of and outdated d equipmen nt. For exam
mple, we currrently have e two backh hoes the newest is eigh ht years old
d.
Lackk of person nnel. Lack of a basicc understanding of our o mission by other departmen nts. Lack oof
communication both within n and outsid de our deparrtment.
What can be done ab bout it? Devvelop and use
u an organized filing system. Devvelop and adopt a formaal
written poolicies that are
a followed d. Constructtion of a ne ew service center
c with room for exxpansion ass
the community contin nues to grow w. Purchasee additional equipmentt and upgra ade existing equipmentt.
Hire additional personnel. Hire outside
o conttractors to perform som me duties until
u equipm
ment can be e
purchased d and staff hired and trained. In n some casses outside contractorss may be used on an n
ongoing ba asis where staffing
s for certain
c operrations is no
ot feasible or
o cost effecctive.
Wheere do you see

s your dep partment inn 5 years?
A de
epartment that
t can prooactively an
nticipate and manage the maintenance need ds of our in
nfrastructure
e
and the needs of our com mmunity; an nd that maintains our water and sewer infrrastructure, not only in n
compliance with
h all State and Federal regulations but in a cosst efficient and
a timely manner.
m
This will requirre additiona

al facilities,, staffing, equipment
e and fundin
ng. The currrent servicce center iss
inad
dequate for our existin ng staff an nd equipme ent. For insstance, our equipmentt is spread over three e
sepaarate locations, one ofo which is inaccessible during bad b weathe
er. We need d to acquirre land and d
consstruct a new
w Service Ce
enter on a minimum
m ten
n-acre site.
The Citys curre ent fleet off vehicles and

a equipm ment is currrently mainntained by private con ntractors ass
direccted by the various dep
partment dirrectors or th
heir staffs. The
T creationn of Fleet Ma
aintenance Department
locatted at the new Servicce Center and a staffedd by a man nager with two full tim
me and one part time e
mecchanics wou uld organize
e the mainttenance of the citys fleet
f in a more
m consisttent and co
ost effective
e
mannner.
Simiilarly the crreation of a small Faccility Mainte

enance Dep
partment wo ould allow the city to manage itss
build
dings and grounds
g in a proactive and
a cost efffective man
nner. This division would consist off a manager

(who
o might also

a division such as
a the Flee

and a four-man landscaping crew.
The Street Depaartment is severely

s und
derstaffed to o manage our
o current work
w load. By the end of five yearss
it wo
ould be beneficial to inccrease the staffing
s to the point wh
here we wouuld have a th
hree man asphalt crew w,
a three man cooncrete crew w, a two maan sign and pavement marking cre ew and a twwo man draainage crew w.
Somme work suchh as mowingg and crack k sealing would be contrracted out.
The Water Depa artment is not

n as seve
erely undersstaffed as other
o departtments; howwever memb bers of their
ws often find themselvves working on other projects.
crew p Byy the end of five yearss we need tot have twoo
sepa
arate four man
m water line repair crews,
c a twoo-man valve e and fire hyydrant main
ntenance crrew and onee
wate
er quality tecchnician.
The Sewer Dep partment is another sevverely unde erstaffed divvision at the
e present tiime. By the
e end of five
e
yearrs it should consist
c of tw
wo- four man repair creews, a two man
m crew th hat would run a vactor truck
t and TVV
van and one wa ater quality tech
t to checck back flow
w preventerss and grease e traps.
Finally the Admministration Departmen nt should in

nclude a dirrector, one executive and
a two ad
dministrative
e
assisstants, one GIS techniccian, two Public Works inspectors and
a one tech hnician who
o would spend part timee
in th

Whaat will it tak

ke to get the

Yearr One
Locaate and deteermine the cost

Currrently we esttimate that the Service Center wou uld require a minimum or a 10- acrre site to acccommodatee

Fornney, along with

w NTMW WD and the e other member citiess, has agre eed to participate in an a effort to o
proaactively maintain our se ewer system m through a regional CMOM

ke the Cityss operating budget, the

Unlik e capital improvement budget doe es not conclude at the end of eachh
fisca
al year. Man
ny of the larrger projectss remain in progress fo
or multiple years.
y As ecconomic con
nditions and
d
the needs of th he Forney community
c change, it is often necessary to reprioritize which proje
ects receive
e
fundding.
Capiital improveements are defined as facilities and infrastru ucture that have a life expectancyy of three or
moree years andd are owned d and operated by or on n behalf of a political subdivision.
s Generally, CIP Projectss
are relatively exxpensive an
nd non-recuurring, have a multi-yea ar useful liffe, and resuult in fixed assets. Thiss
udes construction and acquisition of new buiildings, consstruction an
inclu nd reconstruuction of sttreets, water
and sanitary sew wer improve
ements, draainage impro ovements, and
a land pu urchases. Occcasionally, studies and d
masster plans th
hat will impa
act land use, facilities, and
a infrastruucture are accounted
a fo
or as part off the CIP.
The purchase and

a replacement of veh hicles and equipment
e a not inclluded with capital
are c proje
ects but are
e
fixed
d assets. In
nformation on General Fund fixed d assets ca
an be foundd in the Caapital Purch

Capiital purchasses for the Water Sew

o the room rate chargeed by the ho
otel or motell,
excluuding all other
o servicces provideed (meals, laundry, etc). With one new hotel curre ently under
consstruction, annd another in the plan nning processs, it is exp
pected that hotel occup
pancy tax reevenues willl
conttinue to incrrease in the near future
e.

Whaat is unique about Forn ney Special Events?

Forn
ney Special Events hass demonstra ated a prove en recipe for hostingg/mentoringg large scale events on
n
publlic property. Although each eventt is unique in theme/a appearance e, the working elementts from onee
even
nt to the next
n are virrtually the same. This enables us to condense the planning process p and
d
communicate to o the custom mer or stafff in a much more efficiient manner. The comb bined experience of the
e
Speccial Events Review
R Teamm (SERT) also aids in thhat endeavo or.
Why? Spe ecial Eventss relies almost complettely on the minds and d manpower of the SE ERT Team inn
order to successfully conduct an n event. Firee, Police, Public
P Workss, Parks, Co
ommunity Developmen
D t
and Financce all play crucial
c roles aiding to th
he operationn of each evvent.

Whaat strengthss does the department

d t provide to the organizzation?
The organizatioon is strengthened by the Sp pecial Evennts departm ment by having
h the centralized d
communication between th he event orrganizer andd the SERT team. This aids in pro oductivity byy preventingg
misccommunicattion and allo
owing the te
eam to do thheir job morre efficientlyy.
The departmentt provides detail

d and breadth
b to th
he event that the public usually does not see
e. The hourss
spennt in meetings, workin ng on site drawings, time-lines,
t marketing material, ettc. are all vital to anyy
succcessful evennt. As the general
g public, we see the results of the worrk, but neve
er know justt how much h
workk takes placce.
Wha at strengthss does the department

d t provide to the commu unity?
The departmentt provides th he communnity with a o
one-stop shop when itt comes to special
s even
nts. Whether
it is a simple inq
quiry about an event co
oming up, or
o whether youy are a co ommunity organization
o that wishess
to host an eve ent, the deppartment is able serve e the publicc in providing informattion and fa
acilitating alll
activvities concerning the re
equest.
Wha at are the th

hreats to yoour departm ment?
Speccial Events Staffing
S
Park ks currently has one fu ull time emmployee (FTEE) designate ed to Speciial Events and
a that is the Specia al
Even nts Coordinaator. Currenntly, almost one
o hundred (100) spe ecial events are processsed / coordinated everyy
yearr through thhis individuaal. In 2016 alone Alexa a was onsite for 43 evvents. All of these even nts are after
officce hours or on the wee ekend and in addition to her regular 40 hou ur work wee ek. With the continued d
increease of the number an nd size of annual
a even
nts, there iss high potential for this individuall to becomee
burn nt-out withou
ut the hiringg of addition
nal employeee/s to balan
nce the in-offfice and on
n-site needs.
Departm ments are strained
s in providing manpower for events,, relying mostly on de epartmentaal
overtimee or salaried
d employeess to cover staffing needs.
Voluntee er pool is small
s and needs guid dance (supervision). There
T is a need for policies
p andd
procedures for volun nteers and someone
s to
o supervise them.
t
Spelllman Amph hitheater Policy and Ren ntal

Stafff and Council do not seem
s aligneed on the expectation of the use of the Spellman Amph hitheater. Ass
seen
n in Figure-11 the facility is used 20+ times annually. Con nsidering th his is an outtdoor facilitty and event
operrations are limited
l to th
he months of o April-July and
a Septem mber- Novem mber, the facility is bein
ng used 70% %
(20+
+/30) of the e available weeks
w annua ally.
There ha as been a deesire expresssed to rent the amphitheater.
In
ndependentt schedulingg will be an issue with other
o activities going on at the parkk.
R
Research ha
as been do one with otther amphiitheaters th hat led to Staff and Park Board d
re
ecommenda ation not to rent, but Coouncil neverr voted on thhis item.
S
Staff needs guidance
g in
n order to put a plan to
ogether thatt could movve this desire further, if
C

As an example, Christmas in the Park (Bell Park), which is no ow Christma as on Main began when n we had a
mucch smaller population
p and
a was an event for ou ur community to showccase downto own. It hass grown to
the point
p that th
he downtow wn area foottprint and parking
p cannnot sustain it and only a couple off downtown
businesses partticipate in th
he event.
With the Spellman Museum
M opening, we have a greatt opportunityy to move th he bulk of th

the park
k, but offer Museum
M tou
urs, tour of homes, etc. to entice a more man nageable sizze crowd to

e
We could d do the tree

Perta
aining to all City Events, there is pressure
p to increase th he size, or scope,

b not the

Is the pu urpose for eaach a comm munity beneffit?
Is the pu urpose of eaach to draw people fromm the region (heads in beds)
Is the pu urpose of eaach event to be family frriendly, or children focu

Should alla events be e free?

o of events, other than City of Fornney, reaching a level tha at the City of struggling to support from

fund-raiising of som

Budgget
Perta aining to all City Events,, there is pre
essure to in
ncrease the size, or scope, of everyy event, but
not th
he same commitment to t the budge et of the eve

New events havve a financia al impact, but
b there is no provision in the bud dget. We arre asked to
find sponsorship ps from bussinesses th hat have alrready been tapped by b multiple entities to

Whe ere do you see

s your dep partment in n five years? ?
The departmentt should naturally grow w over the next
n five (5) years, in order just to stay a stepp behind our
popuulation growwth and rise e to the levvel our community visio on dictates. We have a unique op pportunity too
align
n special eve ents and the City Counccil vision witth our three e distinct vennues:
Forney Community
C Park The e large foottprint of the e park mak kes it ideal for large feestivals with
h
multiple componentts, similar to o the Barbeecue Cook-offf and Festival. Concrette parking is very much h
a concerrn as we are e dependentt on the wea ather.
Spellman n Amphitheater The Spellman
S Ammphitheater is a remarrkable venue e that few communities
c s
can boasst. We curre ently host movies,
m loca
al and regio onal concertts, ceremon nies and pre esentationss.
These evvents fit in with
w the currrent schedu uling of Fornney Commu unity Park, but
b we have some room m
to grow. One possib ble directionn is to host four to six paid concerts per yearr which could provide a
potential revenue source
s to help fund otther events. This wou uld have miinimum imp pact to the e
current schedule
s of events at Forney
F Comm munity Park.
Downtow wn Forney Downtown should definitely be a focus for fu uture eventss, but the evvents shouldd
be tailored to enhan nce the histtorical and cultural
c richness of the old businesss district. Partnerships
P s
are criticcal to the success
s of events
e for this
t venue. Organizatio ons such ass the Forneyy Downtown n
Businesss Associatio on, Forney Historic
H Preeservation League
L and the Forneyy Arts Council can help p
align dow wntown events to its atttributes and d limitationss.
Depe endent on growth,
g and
d direction, we
w could be e hosting ne ew events oro festivals, or improve the processs
and communica ation of currrent events.. We need to fully unde erstand the commitmen nt by the Citty, the Parkss
and Recreation Board and the City Co ouncil to fully exploit thhe growth potential
p of this departtment. If thee
City Council wan nts to add events,
e or altter current special
s evennts, it would
d be helpful to discuss.

It is recommend ded to expaand event seervices grad

Pendding Council vision, the Spellman n Amphithea ater may ne eed a busin ness plan, marketing and

The addition off a Parks/Special Even nts Admin position

p andd a Techniccal Specialisst will likelyy be needed

w quick access
a to a network of highways give Forney a
big advantage
a in

We have begun n building a relationship with our neighbor, thet City of Talty, which h has oppo ortunities for

we have

Wha at are the greatest threeats to yourr departmen nt?

One key threat is our limite ed daytime population due to largge number of o commute ers. Others include: lackk
of available
a co
ommercial//industrial buildings
b fo
or lease, strong
s commpetition from neighb boring citiess
(Rocckwall, Terreell, Mesquite
e), continueed loss of available lan nd to housinng developm ments, lack of industria al
sitess (land) and
d/or job creaators, as weell as the neeed for morre commerccial development to help offset the e
propperty tax ratte for Forne
ey residentss. Further, a major thre eat is gettin
ng lost in the vastness of the DFW W
Metrroplex. We must differe entiate oursselves to sttand out fro om the crow wd and be recognized
r as a qualityy
place to locate and grow a business. We W will do this in a num mber of wayys including utilizing current, white e-
colla
ar job growtth numberss as eviden nced by datta received from Forne ey Housewa armers. Housewarmerss
provvide welcom me bags to new
n residennts in the 75126
7 area code. We receive a monthly
m repo
ort from the e
owner detailingg what each person the ey visit doess for a living. A marketting flyer is attached to o this as ann
exammple of the e diverse skkills which better
b markket our skillled workforcce. We will also tout our o superior
geoggraphic locaation only 211 miles from
m downtown n Dallas, higghlight upcoming transp portation immprovementss
to US Highway 80, proximity to future e George Bu ush Tollway extension to t IH-20 and d our easy commute to o
the city
c via IH-2 20, 30 and 635.
6 A close
e second is the east vs.v north mentality in thet Metrople ex. We musst
overrcome the sttigma of thee east side as an infeerior location n compared to our northern neighb bors such ass
Friscco and Planno. We will continue to o market our fantastic Forney ISD numbers in n regard to growth and d
