Town of Westlake
Memo
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Town Council
From: Debbie Piper, Finance Director
Subject: Workshop Meeting of May 18, 2009
Date: May 13, 2009
ITEM
Discussion of the Quarterly Financial Dashboard for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Capital Improvement
Projects update, and the Municipal and Academy Budget calendar update.
VISION POINT AND KEY RESULT AREAS
This item supports the following Vision Point and Key Result Areas:
; We are Leaders
o High quality services delivery coupled with financial stewardships
BACKGROUND
The 2nd quarter “Dashboard” reports for the FY 2008-2009 are attached. Our goal is to have a concise and easy to
understand document regarding the financials of our three (3) major funds; General Fund, Visitors Association
Fund and the Utility Fund. The remaining funds: Debt Service, Capital Projects, 4B Economic Development and
Property Tax Reduction are a function of transfers in, sales tax revenues (which are discussed in the GF analysis),
related expenses and transfers out; therefore, we have not prepared quarterly reports for these funds.
A few changes were made on the last quarter’s “Dashboard”. I will repeat the changes to refresh your memory.
On the individual fund reports, you will see an “A”, and on the Utility Fund a “%”, beside several revenue line
items. The “A” indicates the specific YTD Actuals line-item is based on the accrual method. This means that
revenue received after 3/31/09 but related to that specific quarter, i.e. sales, tax, franchise fees, hotel occupancy
tax, etc. was added to the YTD Actual for comparison to the budget. The YTD Budget is based on 6 months out of
the 12 month budget; therefore, it’s reasonable to accrue the amount to show 6 months of actual receipts.
In addition to accruing the water revenue receipts for the YTD Actuals, I have changed the YTD Budget calculation
from 6 months of the 12 month period to a much better representation of that fund’s revenue. Because the majority
of the water revenue is received in the spring and summer (hotter, dryer months), the YTD Budget calculation is
now being based on the percentage of revenues received for the first six months of the prior year.
In review, these quarterly reports contain a “dashboard” display complete with major revenue and expenditure
categories as well as department revenues. A comparison of the YTD Budget amount and the YTD Actuals at
3/31/09 has been presented. The color green obviously means that we are good in those specific line items when
comparing YTD Budget to YTD Actuals. Any concerns between these two areas show up as yellow (cautionary) or
red (critical).
Staff has been working on the year-end Estimated Budget; therefore, I have added columns to indicate the
preliminary numbers. I also included a “Dashboard” comparing the YTD Estimated Budget with the YTD Actuals.
Hopefully, the color coding will help. The light green corresponds to the Adopted Budget, the light blue represents
the Estimated Budget, and the pink indicates the YTD Actuals.
A summary is presented at the bottom of each fund page indicating the net revenues over (under) expenditures
along with the projected ending fund balances for the Adopted Budget and the Estimated Budget as well as the YTD
Actuals. The operating days remaining in Unrestricted Fund Balance have been calculated using operating
expenditures. Our Fiscal and Budgetary Policies state that we will strive to maintain 90 days of operation.
There is an additional report for each “Dashboard” titled “Explanation of Major Estimated Budget Increase
(Decrease) From Adopted Budget”. Just as the title indicates, this report explains the major increase (decrease) in
the budgets.
A comparison of the Estimated Budget with YTD Actuals is discussed on the “Analysis”. Please remember, the
“Analysis” report is color coded and corresponds to the specific line-item on the “Dashboard” report. All
“cautionary” and “critical” items are detailed with explanations of the variances. I have also explained several of
the line-items that were greater (green) in revenue than we anticipated informing you as to what specifically
happened with that revenue line-item. Beside each major category or department on the explanation page, you will
find a number that reflects the exact variance in that department/line-item.
A “Capital Improvement Projects Update” report is attached for your review. This represents balances through
5/15/09 with a short update of each project. The Directors responsible for these projects will be available for
additional clarification at the workshop.
A revised “Municipal and Academy Budget Calendar” is attached for discussion.

Capital Improvement Projects Update - FY 2008/2009
Project #1: Deloitte Trail
This project is funded with Dove Road improvement funds from Hillwood per the development agreement
approved by the Town as a part of the Deloitte project. This seciton of trail would extend east along Dove
Road from Deloitte's southeast corner to Fidelity (near the Fidelity/Vaquero pedestrian underpass). We
need to get the design for this section underway.
Also, the Facilities Recreation Director has contacted TXDOT and received an application for the Safe
Route to School grant. These grant funds would connect the westend of the Dove Road trail
adjacent to Deloitte with Westlake Academy. TXDOT will announce in June or July how much funding
will be available. He will continue to work with Hillwood to complete the trail connection to the east
and west of the Deloitte project.
Project #2: Glenwyck Trail Extension
Project has been completed with escrowed funds for the trail
Project #3: Stagecoach Hills Drainage
The "Notice to Bidders" was placed in the newspaper to run on 5/3 and again on 5/10. We will open
bids on Wednesday, May 20th and place the item on the agenda for the first meeting in June.
Project #4: FM 1938 Streetscape
Town staff met with the streetscape consultant and with adjacent stakeholders. We have included
changes in an effort to accommodate concerns expressed by the stakeholders. Staff will present the
proposed streetscape concept plan at the May 18th Council meeting.
Project #5: Arts and Sciences Center (All yrs)
The Sam & Margaret Lee Arts & Sciences Center is gaining speed to meet the August completion date.
The structural steel, joist and deck were installed and inspected, with the perimeter framing 15% complete.
Work on the retaining walls has slowed due to weather but is 80% complete. All the AC/heating units
and plumbing fixtures have been delivered and are standing by to be installed. In the next three weeks,
the exterior stonework will go up along with interior studs which will include the rough in of the plumbing,
electrical and mechanical duct work.
Project #6: TRA Assumption of N1 Sewer Line
The Town Engineer and Public Works Director met with TRA and RJN (engineering consultant) and
discussed the next step in the N-1 sewer line transfer process. Westlake's major inflow and infiltration
within Glenwyck and Vaquero was a source of major contention with the transfer. TRA wants Westlake
to perform some additional inflow and infiltration testing (flow monitoring and smoke testing) upstream
of the N-1 sewer line. RJN will conduct the flow testing at a cost of $4,305, which is included in the
N-1 Capital Project. This flow monitoring is conducted to capture spikes in sewer flows during rain events
and compare to dry weather flows. The new information will be compared with flow data identified in an
earlier study by RJN. We will need to conduct smoke testing as soon as possible. We should have cost
next week and will complete that work as a separate contract. We will bring to the Council for approval in
June. It is inevitable that we will have to perform repairs as a condition of the transfer. However, TRA is
amenable to allow the transfer and repairs to be conducted concurrently. This transfer will still need to go
to the Advisory Committee (other cities) for a vote and Westlake and Southlake still need to install two flow
meters that will be turned over to TRA.

Project #7: Water Meter Automation
The Public Works Director obtained a drive-by system consisting of a laptop and software in the prior
fiscal year. New meters and electronic transmitters have been purchased to replace the existing manual
read meters. Approximately 35% have been replaced with the electronic meters to-date.

Memo
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Town Council
From: Jarrod Greenwood, Public Works Superintendent
Subject: Regular Workshop Meeting of May 18, 2009
Date: May 12, 2009
ITEM
Presentation and discussion of proposed FM 1938 streetscape enhancements.
VISION POINT AND KEY RESULT AREAS
This item supports the following Vision Point and Key Result Areas:
; We are Leaders
o Infrastructure maintenance and planning
BACKGROUND
FM 1938 is a major TxDOT project supported by Westlake, Keller, Southlake, and
Tarrant County as a regional effort to facilitate the growing traffic congestion on
residential streets. Planning for this project began many years ago, with project design
work beginning in 2000. FM 1938, after completion, will connect FM 1709 and SH 114
from the existing Precinct Line Road Bridge in Westlake to the existing Fm 1709/FM
1938 intersection in Southlake.
At the regular Board of Alderman Workshop on June 23, 2008, Town staff presented
information regarding the scope and features of potential streetscape improvements.
Some of those items covered included: enhanced pavement (colors and textures),
sidewalks, rest areas, trailheads, way finding, and light/signage post colors. On July 14,
2008, the Town of Westlake Board of Alderman approved a contract with Schrickel,
Rollins, and Associates for the consultation and schematic design of streetscape and way
finding amenities on the FM 1938 corridor.
Town staff worked closely with the streetscape consultant by meeting with adjacent
stakeholders and soliciting feedback regarding the integration of the proposed
improvements and their individual and unique properties. The proposed improvements
include changes in an effort to accommodate concerns expressed by the stakeholders.
Projects of this nature and magnitude will often be divided into phases, with the most
time sensitive items included in the initial phases. Phase 1 of the proposed plan calls for
the pavement and retaining wall enhancements to be immediate items, as they are
included in the TxDOT project and completed by TxDOT contractors. Phase 2 includes
entryway monuments, and all landscape and irrigation within the median from SH 114 to
Randol Mill (Town Limits). Phase 3 includes way finding, sidewalks, irrigation, and
landscape improvements. Additional phases would include trail structures, trailheads,
and pedestrian lighting.
