AWARD Presentation – McAdams Golf Course Club NEW BUSINESS IRB ROYAL CARIBBEAN AMENDED LETTER OF INTENT FOR INDUSTRIAL REVENUE BONDS – ROYAL CARIBBEAN CRUISES LTD. (District IV) Allen Bell Financial Projects Director reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 00-1069. On October 12, 1999, the City Council approved the issuance of a one-year Letter of Intent for Industrial Revenue Bonds (“IRBs”) in an amount not-to-exceed $18,425,000 to Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd, and a 100% five-plus- five-year property tax exemption, in conjunction with their current expansion project. Bond proceeds were used to acquire, renovate and equip a 23,000 sq. ft. facility located at 4729 S. Palisade in south Wichita, for use as a telephone reservation center. Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. had requested a six-month extension to the term of the Letter of Intent. On September 26, 2000, City Council approved an additional six-month extension through April 12, 2001, because construction of the project was not complete and cost associated with the project were not finalized. Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. is now requesting to modify the Letter of Intent to increase the not-to- exceed amount by an additional $1,375,000. The proposed amended amount of the Letter of Intent is not-to-exceed $19,800,000. In conjunction with its original proposed project, Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., has identified additional expansion requirements. The proposed $1,375,000 increase is attributed to increased costs for technology infrastructure, equipment and furnishings for the facility. All other provisions of the Letter of Intent shall remain unchanged. An analysis of the amended sources and uses of project funds is: USES OF FUNDS Construction of New Office Building $ 9,825,000 Technology Infrastructure and related equipment 4,664,000 Furnishings 2,733,000 Acquisition and Construction of Parking Lot 2,578,000 Total Cost of Project: $19,800,000 Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. agrees to pay all costs of issuing the bonds and agrees to pay the City's $2,500 annual IRB administrative fee for the term of the bonds.

New benefit-to-cost ratios for the amended Letter of Intent are: City of Wichita 2.70 to one Sedgwick County 2.13 to one USD 259 1.20 to one State of Kansas 6.88 to one Bond documents required for the issuance of the bonds will be prepared by bond counsel. The City Attorney’s Office will review and approve the form of bond documents prior to the issuance of any bonds. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared.

WER RETIREMENT RESOLUTION REGARDING LONG-TERM EMPLOYEES OF THE WICHITA EMPLOYEES’ RETIREMENT SYSTEM. Ray Trail Director of Finance reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 00-1071. In 1995, the City Council adopted retirement ordinance revisions permitting the City to “Buy Out” (purchase) up to five-years of service for employees participating in the Wichita Employees’ Retirement System (WER) whose positions were permanently eliminated through the budget development process. The ordinance established the circumstances and method of computing the cost of the Buy-Out. In 1998, the WER Board of Trustees retained Ice, Miller, Donadio & Ryan (Ice Miller) to review the City’s retirement ordinances for compliance with Internal Revenue Code requirements for Plan qualification. As a result of that review, Ice Miller notified the Board that the Buy-Out provisions were not in compliance with such requirements. On June 6, 2000, the City Council reviewed the WER Board’s recommended action to remove the Buy-Out provisions from the ordinance. The Board has indicated that it will continue to review options related to the Buy- Out which meet IRS requirements. Following discussions of the WER Ad Hoc Committee and Board, a resolution was drafted and approved by the Board on October 18, 2000. The resolution recommends that in the event of a restructuring of local government resulting in permanent position reductions, members of WER with twenty-five or more years of service should be eligible to receive unreduced pensions beginning at fifty-five years of age. The Board recognizes that the costs and benefits of any future restructuring will be determined at the time such an event occurs. Similarly, the cost to the retirement system (of a program) allowing unreduced benefits at fifty-five years of age must also be determined at that time. A resolution requesting the City Council’s consideration of such long-term employees was drafted, rather than requesting an ordinance setting in place benefits for those employees. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- carried Knight moved that the WER Resolution be received and filed. Motion carried 7 to 0. EMP. RETIREMENT WICHITA EMPLOYEES’ RETIREMENT SYSTEM ORDINANCE REORGANIZATION. Ray Trail Director of Finance reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 00-1072. In 1998, the law firm of Ice, Miller, Donadio & Ryan (Ice Miller) was hired by the Wichita Employees’ Retirement Board to review City ordinances for compliance with Internal Revenue Code requirements for pension plan qualification. During the preparation of materials necessary for submission to the Internal Revenue Service, it was determined that for ease of understanding and presentation of the respective ordinances, a revision, consisting of a reorganization of the existing ordinances would be appropriate. Pension Management and Law Department staff began the task of reorganizing the ordinances governing the Wichita Employees’ Retirement System (WER). Careful consideration was given in an effort to not alter existing retirement benefits or provide new benefits. Additions were made as recommended by Ice Miller to meet Internal Revenue Code requirements. Following the completion of that task and review by Ice Miller, the revised ordinance was presented to the WER Board for its consideration. The Board took action at its regularly scheduled October 18, 2000 meeting to approve the revision and recommend adoption by the Wichita City Council. There are no costs associated with this action. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- carried Knight moved that Ordinance be placed on first reading. Motion carried 7 to 0. ORDINANCE An Ordinance of the City of Wichita, Kansas, creating Sections 2.28.050 and 2.28.121; amending Sections 2.28.010 2.28.020, 2.28.030, 2.28.040, 2.28.060, 2.28.070, 2.28.080, 2.28.090, 2.28.100, 2.28.110, 2.28.120, 2.28.130, 2.28.140, 2.28.150, 2.28.160, 2.28.170, 2.28.180, 2.28.190, 2.28.200, 2.28.210, 2.28.220, 2.28.230, 2.28.240, 2.28.250, 2.28.260, 2.28.270, 2.28.280, 2.28.290, 2.28.300, and repealing the originals of said Sections and repealing Sections 2.28.005 2.28.085, 2.28.087, 2.28.135, 2.28.225, 2.28.245, 2.28.265, 2.28.310, 2.28.310, 2.28.330, 2.28.335, 2.28.340, 2.28.350, 2.28.360, 2.28.370, 2.28.380, 2.28.500, 2.28.510, 2.28.520, 2.28.530, 2.28.540, 2.28.550, 2.28.560, 2.28.570, 2.28.580, 2.28.585, 2.28.590, 2.28.600, 2.28.610; all pertaining to the Wichita Employee’s Retirement System, introduced and under the rules laid over. LIQUOR STORES AMENDMENT OF ORDINANCE PROHIBITING LIQUOR STORES IN CERTAIN ZONING DISTRICTS. Gary Rebenstorf Director of Law reviewed the Ordinance. Agenda Report No. 00-1073. Section 4.04.020 of the City Code imposes certain restrictions on the sale of alcoholic liquor at retail. The current ordinance prohibits such sales from premises located in areas zoned higher than LC (light commercial zoning). Because of recent changes to the City’s zoning code, LC is not a zoning designation currently in use. The current zoning code uses different designation to describe the zoning district which most closely mirrors the old LC district. That designation is NR (neighborhood retail). It would be consistent with past practice and appropriate to amend Section 4.04.020 in order to recognize the recent changes that have been made to the City’s zoning district designations. This amendment has no fiscal impact on the City. The proposed Ordinance amendment recognizes recent zoning district changes in the City’s Zoning Code. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion – carried Knight moved that the Ordinance be placed on first reading. Motion carried 7 to 0. ORDINANCE An Ordinance amending Section 4.04.020 of the Code of the City of Wichita, Kansas, pertaining to alcoholic liquor and certain sales, etc. at retail prohibited and repealing the original of said Section, introduced and under the rules laid over. CHARITABLE SOL. CHARITABLE SOLICITATION ORDINANCE. Gary Rebenstorf Director of Law reviewed the Ordinance. Agenda Report No. 00-1074. Current city ordinance prohibits the solicitation of contributions from occupants of motor vehicles. The City Council reviewed the practice of some individuals and organizations collecting donations from motorists at street intersections. State law provides that this type of solicitation of contributions can be allowed if an organization first obtains a permit authorizing the activity from local authorities. The issue was referred to the DABs for citizen feedback. On October 24, 2000, the council received the recommendations of the DABs. The representatives of some local charities requested that the City’s ordinance be amended and a permit process implemented to allow this type of solicitation. An amendment is proposed to Section 11.44.050 of the City Code consistent with state law. The ordinance amendment establishes an exception to the prohibition against soliciting contributions by standing in the highway. The exception provides that such solicitation may be done by charitable organizations and only if a license has first been obtained from the city. The amendment further states that the guidelines for the issuance of such licenses shall be established and maintained by the City Manager. The proposed guidelines for Charitable Solicitation Event licenses set forth in detail the information required on the application for the license. It is suggested that an organization be allowed 2 Events per calendar year and that the Events not exceed three days in duration. Further, the application shall identify the intersections at which the organization seeks to solicit, and the traffic engineer may identify from time to time those intersections where solicitation will be allowed. Finally, the license information shall be circulated to the police department for the purpose of notifying police personnel of an impending Event. The proposed guidelines also set forth rules governing the conduct of solicitors at Events. Solicitors must be 18 years of age or have a valid Kansas driver’s license. Solicitors must wear safety vests, may solicit only in daylight hours, may only step off the curb when the traffic signal has turned red, and may approach a vehicle only if the occupant has given some sign of assent to being approached. Finally, the soliciting organization must identify itself by prominent signs that are visible to drivers. These suggested guidelines may be modified from time to time by the City Manager based upon need and experience. A license fee may be established by the regulations to help cover the costs of processing applications. The amendment to City Code authorizes a permitting procedure for charitable solicitation.

ORDINANCE An Ordinance amending Section 11.44.050 of the Code of the City of Wichita, Kansas, pertaining to the prohibition against solicitation of rides, business or contributions on a roadway, and the exceptions thereto; and repealing the original of said Section, introduced and under the rules laid over. LICENSE REVOCATION REVOCATION OF BETTI LE BOOP ESCORT LICENSE. (District IV) Gary Rebenstorf Director of Law reviewed the Ordinance. Agenda Report No. 00-1075. Betti Le Boop Escort Service operates as a business at 5860 S. Broadway. Due to the Escort Service conducting business within the corporate limits of the City of Wichita, the owner applied for and received an Escort Service License (#7897) on December 7, 1995. Since receiving the initial license, the business has renewed its license each year with the last renewal being approved on January 18, 2000. On March 24, 2000, annexation of property, including the 5800 block of South Broadway and other adjacent properties into the City of Wichita, was published in the city’s official newspaper of record. On April 24, 2000, the 30-day appeal process associated with the annexation expired. No appeals to the annexation were filed, and the address of 5860 S. Broadway became part of the City of Wichita. Prior to March 24, 2000, the Betti Le Boop Escort Service, 5860 South Broadway, was located in Sedgwick County and outside the city limits of the City of Wichita. The Escort Service is adjacent to and within 500 feet of the Christian Chapel Four Squares Church, 5828 South Broadway. Upon annexation into the City of Wichita, the Escort Service was deemed in violation of City Code, Section 3.07.130. In accordance with City Code, on August 29, 2000, the Chief of Police served the licensee with written notice that the escort license was being suspended for 30 days. As of September 29, 2000, the licensee had not appealed the suspension. On October 25, 2000, the Chief of Police had the licensee served with a written notice stating the City Council was being requested to permanently revoke the license at the November 07, 2000, City Council Meeting. City Code, Section 3.07.130, relating to the licensing of Escort Services reads: “No license shall be granted for an escort service which is located within five hundred feet of any church, public or parochial school, public park, or residential zoning district”. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone representing Betti Le Boop wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- carried Knight moved that the City of Wichita Escort License #7897 be revoked. Motion carried 7 to 0. ART & DESIGN BOARD ART AND DESIGN BOARD APPOINTMENTS. Chris Cherches City Manager reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 00-1076. On February 9, 1999, as part of the Wichita Cultural Plan, the City Council approved creation of a nine-member Art and Design Board to make recommendations on the incorporation of art and aesthetic design into public projects and to develop and define design criteria for public improvement projects. The Art and Design Board was formerly comprised of two (2) architects, two (2) landscape architects, two (2) engineers, one (1) artist, one (1) graphic designer, and one (1) representative at-large. On October 24, 2000, the City Council approved first reading of an Ordinance expanding the Board from nine (9) to fifteen (15) members. The expansion consists of one (1) architect, one (1) landscape architect, one (1) engineer, one (1) artist, and two (2) representatives at-large. Previously, seven of the nine members were appointed by the Mayor (with Council approval) and two members were appointed by the City Manager. On October 24, 2000, the City Council approved increasing the Mayor’s appointments by four members and the Manager’s appointments by two members. Nominations for the Design Council were solicited. The City Council is requested to select one (1) architect, one (1) artist, and two (2) at-large representatives and approve the appointments to the Art and Design Board. In the event one of the nominees is unable to serve, it is requested the City Council authorize the City Manager to appoint a replacement. Adoption of the Ordinance completes required legal action and the Council make the appointments. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared.

CONSOLIDATED PLAN HUD CONSOLIDATED PLAN PROCESS. Tom Smith Grants In-Aid Coordinator reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 00-1115. In 1995, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued new regulations regarding the planning and application process for three grant programs. In 1995, HUD began to require local governments to submit Consolidated Plans and combined applications for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG); Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG); and Home Investment Partnership Grant (HOME) programs. As part of the requirements, local units of government also were required to develop five-year Strategic Plans (2000-2004) with priority needs established. In addition, One-Year Action Plans, outlining specific activities and grant funding sources for the fiscal year, were also part of the HUD requirements. It is now time to develop the annual plan submittal required for 2001-2002. Preparation for the 2001-2002 program year is based on 2000-2001 City Council action and action by the Council on October 26, 1999 regarding the 2000-2004 Priority Needs. The City Council is requested to consider designating and reserving special funding and allocations. Funding Reservations and Designated Funding - For the past few years, the City Council has revised its procedure to ensure special programs (priorities) would be addressed on an outcome basis. Through a Request for Proposal (RFP) process, those programs felt to be high priority (and traditionally funded from grant sources) were developed based on a required “scope of services” where performance could be monitored and evaluated. In the past, such programs included Youth Employment, Women/Family Crisis Shelters, and Youth Recreation/Enrichment Programs (Public Services). To meet previously established goals, it is recommended that the City Council continue those programs in the 2001-2002 allocations. In addition to the (above) designated programs, the following allocations are being proposed: 1. Streets/Sidewalks (Neighborhood Improvement Program and Handicap Improvements) 2. Neighborhood Centers/Community Facilities 3. Neighborhood Improvement Services & Grants Programs 4. Neighborhood Stabilization 5. Community Education Program 6. Neighborhood Assistance-District Advisory Boards 7. Colvin/ Planeview Health Stations 8. Historic Preservation/Mandated Activities 9. Consolidated Plan Program Grant Administration (Direct and Indirect costs) The City Council needs to determine if these programs - traditionally funded - should be designated and funding reserved and if there are other special programs desired by the City Council that should be reserved, such as additional neighborhood revitalization and improvement projects. Suggested designated allocations continue City Council priorities established for neighborhood programs and neighborhood revitalization such as the paint grant program, exterior repair, neighborhood clean up, community education and neighborhood assistance (DAB). It is anticipated that the CDBG funding will remain stable for next fiscal year based on 2001 Congressional appropriations. Congress has appropriated $6.3 million in Consolidated Grant funding for allocation in the 2001- 2002 program year. This total is comprised of approximately $3.9 million in CDBG; $2.3 million in HOME; and $134,000 for Emergency Shelter Grants. Each grant program is restricted to certain federal allocation limits, which cannot be exceeded. These are listed for each Grant as follows: CDBG $1,163,000 Public Services 20% Planning and Administration HOME 15% Neighborhood-Based Non Profits (Minimum required allocation for CHDO’s) ESG 30% Essential Services 30% Homeless Prevention 5% Administration Allocation of Consolidated Grant funds is also subject to individual federal eligibility rules regarding specific activities/programs and national objectives of primarily benefiting low income persons, or addressing conditions of slums or blight. The process by which grant funds are authorized by the City Council is a matter of local determination. That is, the City Council is not obligated to solicit funding applications unless it desires to do so. The City Council may also reserve grant funds for community priority needs and programs, as determined by the City Council. Council Member Pisciotte Council Member Pisciotte said he understood the current policy stipulates organizations that provide services within a 30-day emergency shelter provision. In terms of a policy change, there are organizations in the community that are beginning to provide services beyond those 30-days. Council Member Pisciotte inquired whether the City needs to consider a policy change that would place all of those services into this category. Tom Smith Grants In-aid Coordinator responded that, if it were the desire of the Council, the suggestion would be that the policy change be explicit in terms of the types of services sought. Those are issued under a competitive proposal. The RFP could be issued for both emergency shelter services and transitional housing services for victims of domestic violence. The expanded RFP would increase the competition for the available funding. Transitional housing was a high priority listed in the Homeless Plan the City Council recently reviewed. In the Homeless Plan the Council reviewed, there are gaps in emergency shelter and transitional housing. There are not enough public resources to satisfy the demands. Council Member Pisciotte Council Member Pisciotte said there may be need for a policy change as it was his understanding there is a developing need for this service among victims of domestic violence. Council Member Pisciotte suggested the City proceed with the provisions recommended today and, during the next year, the City look at exactly what is happening in this specific area with regard to domestic violence. There are some alternate sources of funding for these specific types of services and, within the year, this particular issue should be addressed. There should be some sort of recommended policy change for next year. Council Member Rogers Council Member Rogers said the Council might want to prioritize a couple of these areas. Council Member Rogers said he had also been receiving a lot of calls on the domestic violence aspect, and wondered if there were any data indicating that the services provided to domestic violence victims on agenda break-down. The indication is, from the people that have been calling, that these services are not provided to males in the manner that they think they ought to be. If there is any additional information, it would help the Council in making related decisions. Council Member Pisciotte Council Member Pisciotte would like the Council to work with Tom Smith, Grants In-Aid Coordinator in evaluating the current policy with regard to the specific area of domestic violence – and have recommended policy prepared for next year. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Pisciotte moved that the City Council approve establishment of priorities for allocations and reservation and dedicated program funding as recommended, and the process for development of its 2001-2002 Consolidated Plan -- carried be approved. Motion carried 7 to 0.

In 1957, as a condition of Federal assistance in construction of the Wichita-Valley Center Flood Control Project, the City of Wichita entered into a cooperative Agreement with the United States Geological Survey (U.S.G.S.) to install and maintain stream recorders along the project. Rainfall recorders were added later for the City’s own use. In 1965, the Water Department added stream-gauging stations at Cheney Reservoir. The Department of Public Works uses recorders to monitor rainfall through the drainage basins affecting the project to determine volumes of incoming water. This collected data is transmitted to the weather bureau, which transmits the data to the River Forecast Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The data is statistically analyzed and published by U.S.G.S. The Water Department monitors the flow of water into and out of Cheney Reservoir and relays the elevation of the lake to the Corps of Engineers. The Agreement requires the City to pay $29,070 of the $48,500 total program cost, with U.S.G.S. responsible for the balance of $19,430. Budget for the City’s cost is split between the Water Utility ($14,055) and City-County Flood Control ($15,015). In addition, the City provides office space for the United States Geological Survey, WRD, Kansas District for which it charges annual rent of $14,000. This amount is paid by Flood Control to the City’s Property Management Operations Fund to offset a portion of the $15,015 program costs. The balance of $1,015 is paid directly to U.S.G.S.

HOUSING AUTHORITY WICHITA HOUSING AUTHORITY FIVE-YEAR AND YEAR 2001 AGENCY PLANS. Agenda Report No. 00-1092. On October 21, 1998, the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act of 1998 (QHWRA) was signed into law as part of the FY 1999 Appropriations Bill. One provision of the Act is the mandate for public housing authorities to prepare a 5-year plan showing the needs and goals for that period (update every five years) and a more detailed annual operating plan. The annual plan must include, among other things, information on the housing needs of the locality, population served, method of rent determination, operations, capital improvements, unmet housing needs of families with incomes less than 30 percent of median income, homeownership programs and efforts to coordinate public housing and Section 8 programs with local welfare agencies and providers. Section 511 of QHWRA requires the board of directors of a housing authority to conduct a public hearing to discuss the housing authority plans and to invite comments from the general public along with the Tenant Advisory Board regarding the plans. Primary changes from the existing operating plan is the inclusion of the Section 8 Homeownership Program and description of activities to fulfill deconcentration efforts in high concentration areas of low-income housing. The Board of Housing Commissioners on September 28, 2000 held the required public hearing. After considering comments submitted at the hearing, the Board approved and certified the Wichita Housing Authority 5-Year and 2001 Annual Plans.

Since 1992, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has awarded the City of Wichita, Department of Housing Services, funding through the Comprehensive Grant Program (CGP), recently renamed Capital Fund Program (CFP), to modernize and update its units in the Housing Authority inventory. Because the Wichita Housing Authority (WHA) has more than 250 housing units, modernization funds are awarded each year on a formula basis. Eligible Housing Authorities share the national allocation that is determined by a calculation using various characteristics of the Housing Authority. The $1,207,523 budgeted for FFY 1998 is 100% obligated with only $89,890 remaining to be expended. The FFY 1999 budget of $1,042,140 is 33% obligated and 13% expended. Each budget will be closed within the required time frames. The Public Housing Division has asked for a budget revision of the FFY 1998 CGP budget due to construction cost over runs. Line items cancelled will be done in later budget years. The FFY 1999 budget was also revised to make repairs to driveways and sidewalks that were cited by HUD inspectors as safety hazards.

LANDFILL ADJUSTMENT FOR BROOKS LANDFILL CONTRACTOR. (District VI) Agenda Report No. 00-1094. On November 19, 1996, the City Council approved the tipping fee of $26 per ton effective January 1, 1997. The fee was projected to cover contracted Landfill operations and approved conservation programs, with any remaining balance to be transferred to the Landfill Post Closure Trust Fund to fund maintenance costs for 30 years after closure. On April 29, 1997, the City Council approved a Contract with Herzog Environmental, Inc. for Landfill operations until it closes in 2001 and for closure of the active cell. The approved Contract resulted in a reduction of the Contractor’s costs from $6.71 to $5.75 per ton (plus annual CPI increases beginning January 1, 1999), and set closure costs at $7.9 million. Projections at that time anticipated an annual CPI increase of 3% for Herzog’s $5.75 portion of the tipping fee. Following approval of the new Contract, the City Council voted to continue the tipping fee at $26 per ton. The first increase, which became effective on January 1, 1999, was approved by the City Council on November 17, 1998, and raised Herzog’s portion of the tipping fee from $5.75/ton to $5.84/ton (1.6%). Then on November 16, 1999, the City Council approved a 2.3% ($0.13/ton) increase, raising Herzog’s portion of the tipping fee from $5.84/ton to $5.97/ton. That increase became effective on January 1, 2000. The U.S. Cities Consumer Price Index shows a 3.4% increase for the past year. The Contract with Herzog requires an annual tipping fee increase (beginning January 1, 2001) consistent with the CPI. The recommended 3.4% increase would raise Herzog’s portion of the tipping fee from $5.97 to $6.18 per ton ($0.21/ton). Maintaining the $26 per ton tipping fee until closure in October, 2001, is anticipated to provide adequate revenue for current operations (including CPI increases), closure activities, and post-closure maintenance and monitoring for 30 years after Brooks ceases to operate. The increase in the Contractor’s portion of the tipping fee is required under the terms of the Contract.

Opportunity purchases arise when an owner contacts the City and indicates a willingness to sell their property. The owners of 433 South Brookside, Joseph S. Scherr, has expressed an interest in selling this property to the City. The site contains 13,000 square feet and is improved with a 2,280 square foot brick, ranch-style single family residence.

The property appears to be in good condition with no deferred maintenance noted. The residence will be leased by the owner until they find a replacement dwelling or until it is needed for the highway project. The Capital Improvement Program includes funds for opportunity acquisitions. The funding source will be General Obligation Bonds. A budget of $146,000 is requested.

ZON2000-00042 ZON2000-00042 – ADDITION OF OLD TOWN OVERLAY ON 3,000 SQUARE FEET ZONED LIMITED INDUSTRIAL, LOCATED ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF DOUGLAS APPROXIMATELY 125 FEET WEST OF WASHINGTON – 917 EAST DOUGLAS. (District I) Agenda Report No. 00-1107. The applicant is requesting “OT-O” Old Town Overlay zoning district designation. The underlying zoning of the property would remain “LI” Limited Industrial, but the property would become subject to the design and parking requirements of the “OT-O” district. Also, the property could be developed with residences on the upper floors since residential use is permitted in the “OT-O” district even though it would not be permitted in the underlying “LI” zoning absent the “OT-O” designation. The existing building is a three-story structure that is 25 feet wide with an old grain elevator shaft on the rear. It fronts onto Douglas Avenue and abuts an alley on the south. The applicant proposes to redevelop the building with a small pizzeria-type restaurant on the first floor and three apartments on the second and third floors. The apartments are proposed to be two-story units. The application area is located across Douglas from the existing “OT-O” Old Town Overlay district, which is bounded by Washington on the east, the BNSF right-of-way on the west, Douglas on the south, and 2nd Street on the north. The Old Town area is one of Wichita’s earliest commercial and warehousing districts with identifying characteristics of a strong grid street pattern and a predominate style of red brick Italianate architecture typical of early 20th Century commercial and industrial buildings. The building maintains some similarity to the predominant style in the Old Town area. It has a continuous façade line along Douglas and common interior walls with the adjoining buildings. On-street parallel parking is permitted along Douglas. An alley on the south (rear) gives a second means of access, but no parking. The owner intends to meet the on-site parking requirements partially by a shared parking agreement for some of the spaces on a parking lot to the south and partially by participation in the Old Town Parking District. The “OT-O” overlay designation reduces the total parking requirement for a restaurant from one space per four occupants to one space per three occupants. Nearby uses along the south side of Douglas include a design studio, a boutique (Southwest Studio), The Beacon Restaurant, the Wichita Eagle-Beacon and the historic Rock Island Depot. A parking lot south of the alley is divided between private parking for the Wichita Eagle-Beacon and the architectural office to the south, McCluggage Van Sickle & Perry. At the MAPC meeting held October 5, 2000, MAPC voted (12-0) to recommend approval subject to Staff comments. There were no citizens present to speak. Motion -- Knight moved that the Council concur with the findings of the MAPC and approve the Old Town Overlay, subject -- carried to recommended conditions, and approve first reading of the ordinance. Motion carried 7 to 0. ORDINANCE An Ordinance approving zoning classification or districts of certain lands located in the City of Wichita, Kansas, under the authority granted by the Wichita-Sedgwick County Unified zoning Code, as adopted by Section 28.04.010, as amended, introduced and under the rules laid over. ZON2000-00042 ZON2000-00044 ZON2000-00044 – ZONE CHANGE FROM LIMITED INDUSTRIAL TO LIMITED COMMERCIAL DISTRICT, LOCATED 200 FEET SOUTH OF LEWIS ON THE WEST SIDE OF LAURA – 421 AND 425 SOUTH LAURA. (District I) Agenda Report No. 00-1108. The applicant is requesting “LC” Limited Commercial District zoning for a 0.24 ? acre tract located south of Lewis and on the west side of Laura (421 & 425 South Laura). The application area is developed with two single- family houses. The owners, Stanley Gene & Marilyn L. York, have requested “LC” Limited Commercial zoning in order to be able to sell the houses to prospective buyers for continued residential use. The current zoning, “LI” Limited Industrial, does not allow residential use. Prospective buyers cannot get residential mortgage insurance because the properties could not be rebuilt as residences if they were destroyed by more than 50% of their values. The houses are located in an area zoned “LI” Limited Industrial. However, the application area is on a block that is developed with older, single-family residences on both sides of the street. Laura forms a cul-de-sac south of the application area. Kellogg Elementary School is located one-half block southeast of the application area. At the MAPC meeting held on October 19, 2000, MAPC voted (12-0) to approve the proposed rezoning. There were no citizens present to speak on the request. An emergency ordinance is being requested because of the passage of time for meeting the requirements to rezone the property, in order to maintain the existing use as a legal, conforming use. Motion -- Knight moved that the declaration of emergency be approved and the necessary signatures be authorized; and the -- carried Ordinance be adopted on first reading. Motion carried 7 to 0. ORDINANCE NO. An Ordinance approving zoning classification or districts of certain lands located in the City of Wichita, Kansas, under the authority granted by the Wichita-Sedgwick County Unified zoning Code, as adopted by Section 28.04.010, as amended. Knight moved that the declaration of emergency be approved and Ordinance be adopted on its introduction. Motion carried 7 to 0. Ayes: Cole, Gale, Lambke, Martz, Pisciotte, Rogers, Knight. ZON2000-00042 AIRPORT AGENDA AIRPORT CHANGE ORDER: TERMINAL BUILDING FRONT DOORS REPLACEMENT – MID-CONTINENT. Agenda Report No. 00-1109. On October 14, 1999 the Wichita Airport Authority entered into a contract with Belles and Associates to provide the replacement of the Terminal Building Front Doors. During construction it was determined that certain work would need to be completed at night due to the excessive noise associated with the daytime construction. It was also determined that additional building and electrical work would be necessary. Also included is a deduct item for work on the carpet. A Change Order has been prepared that authorizes the additional work. The total cost of the additional work is $11,111.31 and will be funded with Passenger Facility Charges. Motion -- carried Knight moved that the change order be approved and the necessary signatures be authorized. Motion carried 7 to 0. AIRPORT FLIGHT INFORMATION DISPLAY SYSTEM – MID-CONTINENT AIRPORT. Agenda Report No. 00-1110. The Flight Information Display System (FIDS) displays flight arrival and departure times for passengers. Currently, the information is displayed in the Terminal Building and the Airport Hilton. The replacement of the system will display information at the current locations and allow the information to be accessed from the Internet and by telephone. The new system will also be ADA compliant. In 1998, the Wichita Airport Authority authorized the project and included it in the Capital Improvement Program. Staff identified the scope of the project and had anticipated the project’s construction to be integrated into the Terminal Building remodel project, which has been deferred to a later date. The original equipment was originally installed in 1985 and has now become very costly to maintain. Because of the age of the equipment, replacement parts will no longer be available in the near future. Additionally, the underlying database software is no longer supported. A new system will meet the needs of the airport and airlines, and will provide passengers with the accurate information they rely on. The RFP has been reviewed and approved by the Chief Information Officer of the City. The project cost is estimated at $522,000 and will be funded with Passenger Facility Charges. The Project may be initiated as a design/build project. Motion -- Knight moved that the request for and selection of proposals be authorized and the 2000 CIP to include the project -- carried be amended. Motion carried 7 to 0. AIRPORT AGREEMENT – TIMESAVER UNLIMITED LLC DBA TIME SAVER. Agenda Report No. 00-1111. The WAA has received a request from Timesaver Unlimited LLC d/b/a Time Saver to provide shuttle service to and from Wichita Mid-Continent Airport. Time Saver has been operating throughout the State of Kansas for the past four years. The company is licensed under the Kansas Corporation Commission. Time Saver operates from Galva, Kansas. The company accesses the airport approximately twice each week. This shuttle provides an avenue for travelers from small Kansas communities to be able to use Wichita Mid-Continent Airport. The agreement will allow Time Saver to park in the courtesy area while waiting for its customer(s). The fee proposed for allowing Time Saver to drop off customers at the airport is $1 per drop off. This fee is identical to that being collected by Kansas City. While the revenue to the WAA for the provision of this service is not significant, it does fill a need for travelers desiring to use Wichita Mid-Continent Airport. Motion -- Knight moved that the Agreement/Contract be approved and the necessary signatures be authorized. Motion -- carried carried 7 to 0. AIRPORT SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT – OFF-AIRPORT RENTAL CAR AGENCIES. Agenda Report No. 00-1112. In 1993, the Wichita Airport Authority entered into agreements with both Enterprise and Thrifty Rental Car agencies to provide off-airport car rental services to travelers using Wichita Mid-Continent Airport. Compensation to the WAA for allowing access to Wichita Mid-Continent Airport is 8% of gross receipts. This percentage is 2% less than the on-airport operators located in the terminal building pay to the WAA. Currently there are five rental car operators located in the terminal building: Avis, Budget, Dollar, Hertz and National. Agreements with Enterprise and Thrifty allow two additional choices off-airport for travelers in selecting their rental car providers. Revenue to the WAA through August of this year is $313,406. Motion -- Knight moved that the Agreement/Contract be approved and the necessary signatures be authorized. Motion -- carried carried 7 to 0. AIRPORT SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT – HARRISON ARMSTRONG SHOESHINE CONCESSION. Agenda Report No. 00-1113. Harrison Armstrong has operated the shoeshine concession in the terminal building on Wichita Mid-Continent Airport for approximately ten years. Prior to that, the concession was operated by Conner Shoeshine. Services are provided 12 hours each day, Monday through Friday. Demand for this service has decreased over the years as a result of travelers dressing more casually than they have in the past. However, there are those travelers who still seek out the service. During 1999, 3,700 customers utilized this service. Shoeshine revenue to the Airport Authority is modest—the WAA receives 10% of the gross receipts, which amounts to approximately $1,200 per year. Motion -- Knight moved that the Agreement/Contract be approved and the necessary signatures be authorized. Motion -- carried carried 7 to 0.
