Stephenson Jurisdiction Director of Community Development SUBJECT: Annexation & Rezoning - Rejoice Christian School DATE: June 6, 2014 BACKGROUND: The City of Owasso received an application for review and approval of an annexation and rezoning request for a property to the north of the planned location of the Rejoice Christian School. The subject property is located west of the west service road area of US] 69 and north of E 1061h St North.

US -169 Overlay Water Provider Washington County Rural Water #3 -Applicable Pa backs Storm siren fee of $35 /acre Streets (public or private N/A ANALYSIS: The Rejoice Christian School is developing a campus along the west side of US -169 just north of E 1061h St N. As the vision for the campus has grown, more parcels of land have been obtained. This annexation request would bring a parcel of land to the north of the planned campus into City Limits to allow the campus to extend farther north. The City of Owasso can adequately serve all infrastructure and safety needs for the subject property. The applicant is also requesting the rezoning of the subject property. Typically, when a property is annexed into City Limits it is assigned an AG (Agriculture) zoning designation, but as a part of this application the property is requested to be zoned OM (Office Medium). Assigning this zoning designation will allow for the planned development of the Rejoice Christian School. The property is currently undeveloped, but is planned to be the home of the Rejoice Christian School campus. Rezoning the subject property to Office Medium would allow for the construction and development of the school campus and would allow the school to develop as an allowed use in the zoning district. This would allow all future site development approvals to take place at the administrative level, rather than require special approval by the City Council. The rezoning request would be in compliance with the Land Use Master Plan, which calls for transitional uses in the area. The area to the west of the subject property is already zoned for commercial use, which allows a school by right. After the rezoning of the subject property, all areas of the planned campus would be zoned appropriately for 'by right' development. Any development that occurs on the subject property must adhere to all subdivision, zoning, and engineering requirements including but not limited to paved streets, landscaping, and sidewalks. The City of Owasso will provide sanitary sewer service. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CONSISTENCY: The Owasso 2025 Land Use Master Plan identifies the subject property and its surroundings as having a future land use of Transitional. The proposed rezoning to Office Medium will be in conformance with the Land Use Master Plan, as office uses are allowed in transitional areas. ANNEXATION COMMITTEE: The Owasso Annexation Committee met on May 28, 2014 and voted unanimously to recommend approval of the annexation request. PLANNING COMMISSION: The Owasso Planning Commission will review this item at their regular meeting on June 9, 2014.

Stephenson Director of Community Development SUBJECT: Telecommunication Tower Ordinance DATE: June 6, 2014 BACKGROUND: The Community Development Department has been working on an update to the existing zoning code language dealing with the regulation of telecommunication towers. The City has had language in place for a number of years, but after an analysis of the existing regulations, staff has found that Owasso's regulations are significantly stricter than others in the region. Staff has amended the current regulations to allow for a competitive atmosphere for telecommunication providers and to ensure quality phone and data service to Owasso residents. The attached draft shows strikethroughs for deleted language and underline for added language. The changes to the ordinance make two (2) major changes to the current regulations. The first change reduces the distance requirement between towers from one mile to'' /z mile. At the time that this ordinance was originally adopted the telecommunication industry was very different and not only had fewer carriers, but also had much different needs for data and cellular coverage. Due mainly to the increasing need for data service, telecommunication equipment needs to be placed at a higher density to meet customer demand. Staff finds that Y z mile separation does not have a great impact because each tower has to provide space for at least four (4) other companies to co- locate, reducing the needs for duplicate towers in an area. The next major change is the required distance from residential structures. The new language provides for a 2:1 distance to tower height ratio from any residential structure. The old language required a 3:1 distance separation, but as towers are traditionally 150 feet and taller, this made finding a location quite difficult. There are other small changes to increase screening fence requirements and to make a 200 foot tower the maximum possible, collectively making a much stronger and more competitive set of telecommunication standards. PLANNING COMMISSION: The Planning Commission will review this language at their regular meeting on June 9, 2014 and will make a recommendation to the City Council.

TO: The Honorable Mayor and Councilors City of Owasso FROM: Linda Jones Finance Director SUBJECT: Red Flag Rules identity Theft Prevention DATE: June 6, 2014 BACKGROUND: On January 1, 2008, congressional legislation regarding The Red Flag Rule went into effect requiring all public utilities and all governmental agencies to have an identity theft plan in place by November 1, 2008. In compliance with the new legislation, the City of Owasso, the Owasso Public Works Authority, and the Owasso Public Golf Authority adopted Resolution No. 2009 -03 outlining the identity theft prevention program which includes the following: Procedures to identify patterns, practices, and specific forms of activity that indicate the possible existence of identity theft; Semi - annual performance of a risk assessment of all internal operations where identity theft is possible; and Periodic revision of the program to reflect changes in risk. Program administration requires • Governing Body to approve the written identity theft prevention program; • Governing Body to designate a senior manager to oversee the implementation and administration of the program; and • Staff to receive formal training on the implementation of the program. Ongoing requirements: Complete a periodic review of the Program's operations; Conduct an Incident Review of all Red Flag events that occurred during the last 6 months to include actions taken to limit customer exposure and any preventive measures put in place; and Write an Annual Report tc taken during the year. ANNUAL REPORT: the Governing Body to report findings and actions Red Flag procedures were reviewed on November 30, 2013, and again on May 16, 2014. No breach of confidential customer personal identifying information or suspected identity theft was detected over the past year. The semi- annual report is attached. ATTACHMENT: Red Flag Policy Semi - Annual Review Red Flag Policy Semi - Annual Review May 16, 2014 BACKGROUND: Identity theft is a serious problem in the United States. To combat the problem, as part of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003 (the FACT Act), the Federal Trade Commission and several other federal agencies have issued rules requiring creditors (including municipalities under certain circumstances) to develop, adopt and implement written Identity Theft Prevention Programs. The Programs were required to be in place by May 1, 2009. The rules are often referred to as RED FLAG requirements and apply to financial institutions and municipalities that provide utility services and /or other services for which payment is made in arrears. It is the provision of services on a deferred payment basis that makes a municipality a "creditor" as defined under Red Flags. ACTION TAKEN: The City of Owasso adopted Resolution No. 2009 -03 to help protect identity theft and fight theft of customer account information, and provide procedures that identify, detect, and respond to possible signals of identity theft known as Red Flags. As a result, the following list of security enhancements are enforced to ensure the security of customer information: 1) Only allow for applications for service to be made in person; 2) Verify the identification of existing customers if they request information in person, via telephone, via facsimile, or via e -mail. 3) Verify identification of existing customers when requesting to transfer service, change account status, change mailing address, or to terminate service; 4) Verify proof of ownership /lease agreement 5) Require proper identification when a customer presents a Credit or Debit Card for payment if the name is on the card is different from the name on the utility account. ANNUAL REPORT: Red Flag procedures were reviewed on November 30, 2013, and again on May 16, 2014. No breach of confidential customer personal identifying information or suspected identity theft was detected over the past year. nTity Wit out Limits. TO: The Honorable Chairman and Trustees Owasso Public Works Authority FROM: Linda Jones Finance Director SUBJECT: Water Rate Increase DATE: June 6, 2014 BACKGROUND The Owasso Public Works Authority purchases treated water from the City of Tulsa. On March 31, 2014, the City of Tulsa notified Owasso of a water rate increase effective October 1, 2014. Rates for water purchased by the OPWA from the City of Tulsa will increase from $2.96 to $3.17 per 1,000 gallons. Tulsa water is delivered to Owasso through three master meters. The monthly meter charge will also increase from $450.05 to $481.56 for a monthly meter fee increase of $31.51. In order for the City to recover the increased cost of service, staff proposes a rate increase of twenty -one cents per thousand gallons of water usage to customers inside the city limits plus the respective monthly increase based on the size of meter. Staff further proposes that rates for customers outside the city limits continue to be 20% more than rates for customers within the city limits in accordance with the previous OPWA resolution establishing the different rate structures for customers outside the city limits. The proposed minimum volume charge per 1,000 gallons of water usage would increase from $4.81 to $5.02 for customers inside the city. The monthly cost of the proposed rate increase to a city customer who uses 7,000 gallons of water with a 3/<" meter would be $1.47 per month or $17.64 per year, an amount equal to the Tulsa rate increase. The proposed increase for rural customers using 7,000 gallons per month would be $1.75 or $21.00 per year. Rate changes require the approval of the Owasso Public Works Authority and the Owasso City Council through Trustee Resolution and City Council Ordinance. PROPOSED ACTION: Staff will recommend City Council approval of an ordinance and OPWA Trustee approval of a resolution increasing the water rates to be effective October 1, 2014. ATTACHMENTS: Proposed draft OPWA Resolution Letter from City of Tulsa OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY RESOLUTION NO. 2014 -XX A RESOLUTION OF THE OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY ESTABLISHING WATER SERVICE RATES WITHIN AND WITHOUT THE CORPORATE LIMITS OF THE CITY OF OWASSO AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Owasso FROM: Teresa Willson Information Technology Director SUBJECT: Capital Improvements Priority Determination DATE: June 6, 2014 BACKGROUND: Adopted by the City Council in September 2003, Resolution 2003 -14 establishes the procedure for amending the priority determination of capital improvement projects eligible to receive funding from the Capital Improvements Fund, also known as the permanent third -penny sales tax. First, the Capital Improvements Committee (CIP) conducts a public meeting to consider proposed amendments to the priority determination of projects proposed to be funded by the third -penny sales tax. Following such consideration, the Capital Improvements Committee shall provide a recommendation to the City Council regarding the proposed amendment. Next, the City Council conducts a public hearing in order to receive and consider citizen input relevant to the recommendation made by the Capital Improvements Committee and the proposed amendment to the list of project priorities eligible to receive funding from the third - penny sales tax. Notice of the public hearing must be made no less than five days prior to the public hearing.

TO: Capital Improvements Committee City of Owasso From: Roger Stevens Public Works Director Subject: East 1 16th Street North /North 129th East Avenue Intersection Improvements Date: May 22, 2014 BACKGROUND: The E 1 16th St N and N 1291h E Ave intersection is a heavily trafficked area that conveys residential and commercial traffic, as well as commuter traffic to and from Owasso. This roadway accommodates a large percentage of local traffic and is significant in the distribution of traffic to and from the Collinsville and to commercial areas near Hwy 169 and E 116th St N. With the continued residential and commercial growth in the area, Tulsa County and City of Owasso have been discussing potential funding options and construction timelines. A proposed solution involves a joint partnership in order to share costs relating to the planning and construction phase of E 116th St N and N 1291h E Ave intersection improvements. Funding for the project would be through the ODOT Surface Transportation Program which provides federal funds in the amount of 80% for the construction cost and requires a 20% local match (City of Owasso /Tulsa County). INTERSECTION COMPARISON: Since the last CIP meeting, a committee member requested information relating to how this project rated in terms of vehicle traffic and accidents compared to the existing intersections on the CIP priority list. The comparison information is provided in the table below: Location North /South East /West Vehicle Accidents Injury Accident Vehicles per day Vehicles per day (Since 2002) (Since 2002) E 1 16th St /N 1291h E Ave 1,297/2,647 12,903/12,631 82 41 E 1061' St /N 145111 E Ave 3,465/3,886 4,794/7,268 14 3 E 96111 St /N 1451h E Ave 4,058/5,543 4,981/7,530 13 4 E 961h St /N 97th E Ave 3,256/5,047 5,274/372 19 6 SCOPE OF WORK: The proposed intersection improvements would include five lanes plus a right turn lane on all legs on the intersection. The roadway improvements will extend in each direction nearly 700 feet from the intersection. The storage bays for each left turn lane will be 250 feet. The intersection will be signalized. The estimated project cost is $4.1 million which includes engineering, land acquisition, utility relocation and construction costs. As mentioned, ODOT funding for this project will be sought through the Surface Transportation Program, which will fund 80% of eligible project costs, while the local government funds the remaining 20 %.
