EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Driveway access and regulation is necessary to adequately protect the public health, safety and
welfare. The collector and arterial roadways along with the state highways are designed to
accommodate peak traffic volumes and to maintain smooth traffic flow in the town. Driveways
create conflicting turning movements and congestion, negatively impacting the roadways. In
order to protect the major roadways’ vehicular capacity and to improve public safety, new
residential driveway connections are to be allowed only on the new proposed street residential
street classification.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The owner of the development known as Entrada, located at the northeast corner of FM 1938
Page 2 of 3
(Davis Blvd) and Solana Boulevard, has submitted a petition to the Town of Westlake to
establish a Public Improvement District (PID) for construction of public infrastructure in this
development. The PID for this property was created by the Town Council at their February 24,
2014 Regular Meeting (following an advertised public hearing authorized by Council on January
27, 2014). Next steps would include discussion of a proposed Service and Assessment Plan
(SAP) for this PID as well as a timeline for establishing the PID. However, the Developer is
waiting to hear from the Texas Attorney General’s office regarding their proposed conduit
financing mechanism for issuance of the PID bonds. The purpose of this agenda item is to
update the Council on the status of the Developer’s discussions with the Attorney General’s
office, should there be anything to report to Council at the time of their meeting.
ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY/RECOMMENDATION
Previously this property was zoned for office and retail uses. In April of last year, after much
public input and meetings, the Town Council, with a unanimous recommendation from the
Planning & Zoning Commission, approved a request by the owner to amend the zoning in this
PD1-2 zoning district . Also in April of last year, prior to consideration of this zoning change
request, the land use plan component of the Town’s Comprehensive Plan was amended to
provide for the uses requested in the zoning change request for this property. The amended
zoning adds certain residential and entertainment uses in order to allow development of a mixed
use P lanned Development on this tract. The zoning ordinance, as amended, is intended to
achieve a design that emulates a European style village with a Spanish architectural theme. The
development’s name is Entrada.
During the re-zoning approval process it was pointed out by Staff, as well as discussed by
Council, that if the zoning request was approved, the developer intended to submit to the Town a
petition to create a Public Improvement District (PID) to fund the construction of the public
infrastructure for this development. Further, in the Economic Development with the developer
of Entrada, the Town agreed to consider creating a PID for this purpose. This Economic
Development Agreement also was approved by the Town Council in April of this year.
This agenda item is intended to continue discussion begun at the Council’s October 28, 2013
Workshop, the Council’s November 11, 2013 Workshop, and the Council’s December 9, 2013
Workshop regarding this proposed PID. The Staff has been reviewing various iterations of a
draft Service and Assessment Plan (SAP) since the petition to establish this PID was submitted
by the owner of this tract. If the Council wishes to move forward on establishing this PID, a
specific timeline for establishing the PID will need to be set for this as well. With the
Development Plan and Preliminary Plat for Entrada now approved by the Town Council, the
developer is ready to move forward on establishment of a PID for this property.
After t he December 9, 2013 Council Workshop, it was determined that , due to IRS regulations
related to issuance of bank qualified debt, modifications to the approach previously discussed
with Council for issuance of PID bonds would need to be modified. The developer’s team
discuss ed this at the Town Council’s January 27th workshop. The developer request ed that the
Council approve the resolution that begins the public notification process for hearings on these
PID bonds at the Council’s January 27, 2014 Regular Meeting. The Town Council did approve
this resolution at their January 27, 2014 setting the public hearing to consider creating a PID for
the Council’s February 24, 2014 Regular Meeting. This Public Improvement District was
Page 3 of 3
approved by the Town Council at their February 24, 2014 Regular Meeting. Approval of the
bond issuance comes at a later point in the process and the process can be halted any time before
then by the Council.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Over the past year, the Council and staff members have reviewed our current iteration of our
strategic planning document, reviewed the mission, vision, and value statements, and created the
direction necessary to formulate a dynamic strategy for the organization. As we enter the final
preparations for our processes, we have constructed a timeline to indicate the steps and decision
point s thus far, in the creation of our plan.
May 31, 2013 At our strategic planning retreat, we reviewed our mission, vision, and
values statements, along with the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) system,
which is designed to function as a communication tool, and aligns our
daily work activities. We grouped the common verbiage and directives
from the various documents and feedback tools (i.e. DF Survey, previous
strategic plan, etc.) to create four distinct themes that will guide our
service provision efforts over the next few years. The Council also named
the four perspectives for balanced service delivery – People, Facilities, &
Technology (capacity building), Municipal & Academic Services
(operational processes), Financial Stewardship, and Citizens, Students, &
Stakeholders (customer service). The representation of our foundational
work is shown below:
July 15, 2013 Staff met during a Q2 meeting to discuss the Council directives regarding
the municipal services vision, and mission statements and to draft verbiage
to use during our first two (2) day retreat with the consultant.
July 29 & 30, 2013 The entire municipal staff team along with member s of the executive team
from the Academy, then met with our consultant to create strategy maps
for each of the distinct themes. The maps identified key strategic
objectives necessary to provide a high level of service to our stakeholders
across each of the four perspectives.
Sept. 16, 2013 After review of the theme maps, the mission, vision, and value statements
were redrafted and presented to the Council at workshop. Staff also
included a recommendation to use an abbreviated ‘tag line’ for municipal
services, along with a comprehensive mission statement that explains,
“who we are, what we are about, and our purpose.” The newer versions
created a succinct statement pertinent to our unique service provision
programs, our commitment to personal customer service, and financial
stewardship.
Page 3 of 4
October 29, 2013 Staff met to combine the four distinct theme maps into one organizational
wide draft of the Tier One Strategy Map, which would serve as our
communication tool and strategic direction until the next iteration of the
plan.
November 11, 2013 The updated vision, mission, and value statements were discussed with the
Council and the Tier One Strategy Map draft was presented for review.
We outlined the definitions, ‘read the map’ in order to demonstrate our
service delivery efforts, and explained the associated strategic objectives
for each of the four perspectives. The draft strategy map was approved by
the Council as well as the value statements for the community. The
mission and vision were discussed with a secondary draft to be prepared
by the staff.
Jan. 23 & 24, 2014 Staff subsequently met with our consultant to begin the work of drafting
objective commentary for each of the strategic objectives. The
commentary provides an easy to understand definition and the intended
results for the objectives, denotes the associated performance measures,
and lists the current and potential staff initiatives that support the
achievement of the objective. These will be presented to the Council at
the May 2014 workshop session and retreat.
March 2014 Staff reviewed the vision, and mission statements and has worked to create
draft versions based on previous feedback from the Council and as we
have gathered new information through discussions with residents at the
comprehensive planning public meetings, various neighborhood
gatherings, etc.
The Council provided direction that we work to keep the mission
statement succinct while conveying the uniqueness of the community, the
accessible manner in which we provide services, and help readers to
understand that we operate with a ‘different mindset’ than other
municipalities.

We are asking Council to review the draft vision statements and proposed mission statements,
and provide Staff with a final direction of these elements for our strategic plan.
