DATE

September 5, 2012 Mary Suhm, City Manager FY 2012-2013 Budget Amendment In light of the increase in revenue, in the amount of $329,440, provided by Oncors franchise fee, I offer the following amendment: Adjust the hours of operation for all branch libraries as follows: Tuesdays from Noon 8:00pm Wednesdays from 10:OOam7:OOpm Thursdays from Noon 8:00pm

Currently, each branch closes at 6:00pm on one of these days and is open until 8:00pm on the other two evenings. This amendment will extend the 6:00pm closing time to 7:00pm for each library and comes at a cost of $320,523. The hours at both DISD co-locations (Arcadia Park and Hampton-Illinois) would not change. These branches would still close at 5:00pm Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Additionally, Monday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday hours would remain unchanged at all locations.

FY 2012-13 CMO Proposed Annual Budget City Council Questions August 13, 2012

1)

Provide information on the Citys support of Dallas Summer Musical. The Office of Cultural Affairs has a current long-term facility agreement for the Fair Park Music Hall with DSM Management Group, Inc (DSM). No rent is collected from DSM for the use of the Music Hall. The Fair Park Music Hall Lease agreement is for a 20-year term (July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2029) with four five-year renewal options after the initial term (lease approved 5/13/2009, resolution 09-1226). Per the agreement, DSM is required to maintain a maintenance account and deposit 8% of the gross food and beverage sales, to be used by DSM for major maintenance of the facility. In FY12, the amount deposited in the maintenance account was $17,011 and the current balance is $66,444. No projects were undertaken by DSM in FY12 to use these funds. DSM is also required to maintain an operating account and deposit the amount collected in the $2.50 per ticket facility fee and a sum of $100,000 annually in this account and use the funds for operating expenses (utilities, etc.). In FY12, facility fees collected totaled $371,804. Operating expenses for FY12 totaled $1,899,520. DSM retains all the rental fees, event fees, and any other revenue generated by the Fair Park Music Hall. DSM can use the revenue generated by the building to cover operating expenses.

Parking revenue is deposited into the Fair Park Improvement Fund. Funds are used for repairs and maintenance at Fair Park including parking lots. The Park Department provides grounds maintenance, perimeter security and parking lot maintenance for the Music Hall at no charge to DSM. In an effort to expedite the load-in of each performance, the usual Fair Park parking fee of $10.00 per vehicle is not collected at the gate from Dallas Summer Musical patrons. In lieu of the patron paying a parking fee, there is a parking agreement whereby DSM pays the City parking contractor a $1.00 per person parking fee based on the number of persons who actually attend (drop count) each performance. The City parking contractor provides off duty traffic police and parking attendants at a fixed cost for each event. The cost of the police and attendants is then subtracted from the total parking revenue for each Dallas Summer Musical event and the City receives the net, less sales taxes. The Park Department does not track cost for grounds maintenance, perimeter security or parking lot maintenance specifically for the Music Hall. Below is revenue received from the Music Hall drop counts for FY11 and the estimated revenue for FY12. The Citys share of the funds is for the repair and maintenance of facilities, including all the parking lots in Fair Park. The drop count is $1.00 per attendee.

2)

Provide information on the prior operation and decision to discontinue operation of the WDMC and MLK pay stations. Also, what would be the cost to restore the pay stations in FY13? The Utility Pay Stations were originally located at the centers due to limited access to banking services to local area residents, where many did not have bank accounts and would instead make payments with cash. As additional utilities entered into the marketplace, the primary providers (TXU and Lonestar) determined that they would no longer pay processing fees to the center for transactions made, thereby increasing costs to the Citys General Fund. To offset increased costs to the GF, staffing was reduced and fees were introduced to a wider customer base. Changes to services and more competition from the private sector resulted in fewer and fewer customers using the service. The annual cost to operate both utility pay stations for 6 hrs each day and 5 days a week is approximately $315,000.

3)

How many animal control officers are there now and how many are being added in FY13? Dallas Animal Services had 52 animal services officers budgeted in FY12. Two additional animal services officers are proposed in the FY13 budget.

4)

What additional funds would be needed in FY13 to restore five community pools from operating 2 days/week to 5 days/week for 10 weeks? An additional $220,000 is needed to increase the five pools from two days/week to five days/week.

5)

Provide a summary of FY13 changes that affect city employees. Uniform employees Meet and Confer Agreement with uniform employees o Eliminate Mandatory City Leave days o 3% across the board pay increase o Enhance education incentive pay o Add 2 uniform holidays Civilian employees o Eliminate Mandatory City Leave days o Reinstitute merit pay program (average 1.5%) o Implement phase one of pay adjustments identified as part of Total Compensation Study Employee Health Benefits no premium increase for employees o Expand Wellness Program

6)

What is proposed in FY13 for building inspection technology upgrades? Building Inspection Technology Improvement Planned for 2013 The overarching goals for Building Inspections Technology plan for calendar year 2013 is to improve customer service and enhance operational capabilities by increasing service offerings to the business community, replacing out-of-date and/or cumbersome systems, and leveraging online and mobile technology. The improvements include: Create two Express Plan Review Conference Rooms to offer customers the option to pay for an expedited review of their permit application o The conference rooms will be designed to allow multiple City Departments to collaborate with the customer in real-time onsite or remotely. o Install video, web and audio conferencing for vendors who are not local or not able to physically come onsite. Together, these features offer a rich toolset for collaboration including the ability to record the session which can be distributed or saved for later use. o The conference rooms will have multiple interactive whiteboards that connect to a computer and projector for better facilitation of the review practice on a big screen. Replace older, bulkier and slower laptops with iPad tablet computers capable of running field operation applications Leverage mobile-enabled applications to enhance field operations and customer service to better inform customers and businesses of their inspections and permitting applications Re-open Far North Dallas office to better service the community, which will include installing the standard network and wiring for telephone and data communications, print, email, and internet connection services. Implement a self-service kiosk at pay stations to allow repeat customers and contractors to pay for fees more conveniently. Implement an electronic document management system for digitizing Building Plans for better organizing, search and retrieval capabilities o This system will replace an end-of-life application that is no longer supported by the vendor o The system will integrate with scanning hardware and PC equipment o It offers web searches for public use Implement a system to support online submission and review of the permitting application process o The current process for obtaining a permit entails physical submission of documents from which a complex iteration of notes, markups, discussion, reviews, rejection, and then final approval are exchanged between customers and Building Inspection personnel and interCity departmental coordination as part of the internal review process. Throughout the review process, there are numerous email exchanges with large documents attached. A major challenge is managing all the notes and markups on the documents in addition to managing all the different changes on the document itself. o The new system will reduce cycle time for managing permitting application process by enabling and tracking online submissions and reviews o It allows customers to submit their application online along with ability to attach documents o The system will be able to handle all of the industry standard file formats available o It will include the ability to electronically track markups and notes on the document(s) o It will include the ability to digitally approve, reject, escalate and notify

7)

What is proposed in FY13 for 311 technology upgrades? 311 Technology Improvements Planned for 2013 Upgrade the Customer Request Management System (CRMS) that has been in use since 2002 with the most current software and replace out-dated computer hardware that the system runs on. (Target Completion: Second Quarter 2013) o The new system software will support smart phone and tablet technology (iPhone, Android and Microsoft Windows Phone). o Citizens from their smart phones will be able to electronically open and check service requests, attach photographs, and use GPS coordinates to report location. o The City of Dallas will have a branded mobile application that can be downloaded to smart phones from iTunes (Apple), GooglePlay (Android), etc. o Message announcements (i.e., service outages water main break at Marilla and Field) that can be sent from the new 311 system software via social media networks such as Facebook and Twitter. o Greater ease of use in looking up service requests with the new 311 system software, which include key word searches, topical information displayed on maps and greater integration to other City information from within the 311 system via internet links. o Online knowledgebase for users to look-up frequently asked questions as an option instead of calling. Enhance telephone technology used in the 311 Call Center. (Target Completion: Fourth Quarter 2013) o Separate 311 telephone service from the E9-1-1 telephone technology. This will eliminate any risk of outages to the E9-1-1 technology when planned technology changes are needed for 311. o Improved IVR reporting and management software for the 311 Call Center operation calls on-hold, call wait times, agents busy, call lengths, etc. o Implement software to perform post call surveys.

8)

Provide status and timeline for technology improvements being implemented in the Municipal Courts. CCMS Technology Improvements Planned for 2013 Replace the Court Case Management System (CCMS) that has been in use by the Citys municipal courts for over 25 years with the current software and replace out-dated computer hardware that the system runs on. (Target completion: Fourth Quarter 2013) o The new system software will support tablet technology (touch screen tablet). o Greater ease of use in reporting with the new CCMS system which ensures compliance with the States Office of Court Administration (OCA). o The new system will provide access to management reports including the addition of Dashboards, trending reports and online financial reports. The new system solution changes what currently is a paper trail and stacks of folders, into a paperless, easy-to-use electronic solution by; o Decreasing or eliminating production of hard copy paper records allowing for more of a paperless environment; o With the new solution, judges will be able to view and issue warrants electronically through workflows and digitized signatures; o Supporting improved electronic document management; and, o Automates all civil court processes that are currently manual. Replacement of the court case management system will allow the City to address outstanding audit and efficiency issues. o The new system will allow removal of manual calculations used for receipts and collection processing; o Purging closed/disposed cases with disposal dates in accordance with state mandates or local ordinance; and, o Ensures compliance with state mandates through vendor provided automated updates to software.

10)

What improvements are being made in 911? Emergency 9-1-1 Technology Improvements Planned for 2013 Decrease the number of seconds it takes for the recording (you have reached Dallas 911, do not hang up) to activate when a caller dials 9-1-1 from 30 to 15 seconds. Increase the number of Call Waiting spaces in the 9-1-1 telephone system from 12 to 24. Increase the number of phone lines in the backup / fail-over system at City Hall from 30 to 60 lines. Replace outdated backup phone technology and PC hardware and software at 9-1-1 offsite facility (Dolphin Rd) used in the event City Hall data center is out-of-service. Upgrade the near end-of-life hardware and software of the 9-1-1 Call Recording / Playback technology. Upgrade the aging PCs and dispatch automation software used in the 9-1-1 Call Center Operations.
