Council to consider a resolution authorizing the City Manager to award a contract to Brystar Contracting, Inc., of Beaumont, for the West Lucas Drive and Gladys Avenue Emergency Storm Sewer Point Repair and Cavity Repair Project Minutes --January 9, 2024 On December 5, 2023, the Engineering Department was notified by the Streets and Drainage department that the steel plates previously placed at the intersection of West Lucas and Gladys due to cavities and concrete pavement failure have started to settle and required a larger plate to be placed to secure the roadway. Due to the heavy traffic and the preliminary findings of survey and inspection showing defects with the storm line at this intersection, Public Works/Engineering has determined that the repair of these cavities and repair of the storm sewer line, must be performed on an emergency basis. On December 12, 2023, the City obtained a time and materials proposal not to exceed the amount of $538,770.00 from Brystar Contracting, Inc., to perform the necessary work. Brystar Contracting will remove approximately 24 linear feet of the existing aluminized steel arch pipe that has failed and replace it with a reinforced concrete box culvert of comparable size. All excavation, traffic control, road restoration and water line adjustments necessary to complete the work will be handled by Brystar Contracting as well. Funds will come from Certificates of Obligations. Approval of the resolution.

Councilmember Durio seconded the motion. AYES: MAYOR WEST, MAYOR PRO TEM TURNER, COUNCILMEMBERS DURIO, GETZ, FELDSCHAU, SAMUEL AND NEILD NAYS. NONE MOTION PASSED RESOLUTION 24-014 4. Council to consider an ordinance authorizing the City's participation in rate proceedings in 2024. The Steering Committee of Cities ("Cities") continues to play a crucial role in limiting Entergy Texas, Inc.'s ("ETI" Company") various requested rate increases to reasonable revenue levels. ETI filed a base rate case in 2022 which was resolved by settlement in April 2023. ETI originally requested a $131.4 million or 11.20% base rate increase. The parties' agreement authorized a $54 million or 4.6% increase over current base rates, excluding fuel costs. The cities' efforts contributed significantly to reducing the Company's initial proposed increase by 58.90%. Many of our consultants' recommendations were reflected in the settlement terms, including a decrease to ETI's return on equity, adjustments to the Company's depreciation rates, and longer amortization periods for recovery of certain expenses. Cities also supported a reasonable allocation of the revenue requirement between the various customer classes and a lower monthly fixed customer charge for residential customers, The Company also Minutes —January 9, 2024 initiated proceedings in late-2022 to reconcile fuel and purchased power expenses incurred between April 1, 2019, and March 31, 2022. In these proceedings, ETI requested that the Commission approve an under -recovery balance of $103.1 million. After Cities raised issues related to the Company's proposal, the case settled with the Company agreeing to reduce its under -recovery balance to $99.6 million. No other party raised any issues with the Company's application. We anticipate that the Company may file Transmission Cost Recovery Factor and Distribution Cost Recovery Factor applications for interim cost recovery of investments made to its transmission and distribution systems. The Company is also expected to file its annual application to amend its Energy Efficiency Cast Recovery Factor and its semi-annual Fuel Factor rate adjustments in February and August 2024. The reasonable expenses associated with rate cases are reimbursable by the company. Approval of the ordinance. Councilmember Feldschau moved to ADOPT AN ORDINANCE ENTITLED AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF BEAUMONT, TEXAS, AUTHORIZING PARTICIPATION WITH OTHER ENTERGY SERVICE AREA CITIES IN MATTERS CONCERNING INTERGY TEXAS, INC., AT THE PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION OF TEXAS IN 2024; AUTHORIZING THE HIRING OF LAWYERS AND RATE EXPERTS; AUTHORIZING THE CITY'S PARTICIPATION TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW AT THE PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION OF TEXAS. Councilmember Samuel seconded the motion. AYES: MAYOR WEST, MAYOR PRO TEM TURNER, COUNCILMEMBERS DURIO, GETZ, FELDSCHAU, SAMUEL AND NEILD NAYS: NONE MOTION PASSED ORDINANCE 24-001 5. Council to consider an ordinance amending the FY 2024 Budget. In accordance with Article VI of the City Charter, the City Manager shall strictly enforce the provisions of the budget as specified in the ordinance adopting the budget. He shall not authorize or approve any expenditure unless an appropriation has been made in the budget ordinance adopting the budget, and there is an available unencumbered balance of the appropriation sufficient to pay the liability to be incurred. Approving the proposed amendments will ensure that expenditures are within the approved budget and that interfund transfers are in accordance with financial policies as approved within the budget document. The City's 2023 fiscal year ended on September 30, 2023. At that time there were contracts, purchases of goods and services, and other items that were approved and budgeted in Fiscal Year 2023, but the actual expenditure was incurred in Fiscal Year 2024. Exhibit °A" lists the carryover items for those expenditures that are being requested so that the budget for those items can be re-established in the current fiscal year. The majority of these expenditures were originally included in the budget projections for Fiscal Year 2023. All carryover items will be funded from available balances as of 9/30/23. The details of the proposed amendments are as follows: Minutes — January 9, 2024 The General Fund's unaudited Ending Fund Balance for Fiscal Year 2023 is estimated to exceed the projected FY2023 Ending Fund Balance by $2,347,299, mainly due to increased charges for ambulance services of $2.8M. The total carryover request and budget amendment for the General Fund, for Fiscal Year 2023 items, totals $132,754. See Exhibit "A" for a listing of these items, which include a carryover for Technology and the Executive Office's unbudgeted items. In addition to this amendment amount, this budget amendment will also establish a contingency account, as required per the City Charter, of $50,000. Additionally, this budget amendment transfers a total of $942,700 to the Capital Reserve Fund to cover a shortfall due to expenditures on projects in FY2023 and due to insurance proceeds, the city will not receive for repairs to the Police Department Headquarters' roof damage as a result of the hailstorm in April 2023. The grand total for the budget amendment in the General Fund will be $1,125,454. With this budget amendment, the General Fund is projected to end FY2024 with a Projected Ending Fund Balance of $38,833,495, which is $1,221,854 greaterthan the FY24 Adopted Ending Fund balance of $37,611,650. The projected Fund Balance percentage is 24% of the General Fund's annual operating expenditures, which is 4% greater than the policy requirement of not less than 20% of the annual operating expenditures. See Exhibit "B" for the carryover summary and available fund balances, as projected. General Fund ORIGINAL. BUDGET Proposed Amendment Amended Budget Total Expenditures $162,473,600 $1,125,454 $163,599,054 2. The Water Utilities Fund's unaudited Ending Fund Balance for Fiscal Year 2023 is estimated to exceed the projected FY2023 Ending Fund Balance by $2,524,423, due mainly to unbudgeted investment income of $617K and $1.4M in commercial fees coming in over budget. The total carryover request for the Water Utilities Fund is $29,302, which includes some water utility technology items and repair and maintenance expenses that rolled over into the current fiscal year. The revised FY2024 Ending Fund Balance for the Water Utilities Fund is $12,920,033, which is $2,495,121 higher than the FY2024 Adopted Ending Fund Balance of $10,424,912. The projected Fund Balance percentage is 22% of the Water Utilities' annual operating expenditures, which is 7% greater than the policy requirement of not less than 15% of annual operating expenditures. Water Utilities Fund Original Bud et Pro osed Amendment I Amended Bud et Total Ex enditures $58,661,200 1 $29,302.00 $58,690,502 3. The Capital Reserve Fund's unaudited Ending Fund Balance for Fiscal Year 2023 is estimated to exceed the projected FY2023 Ending Fund Balance by $1,574,382, due mainly to projects that were not started, or completed, in FY2023 that carried over into FY 2024. Because of the unanticipated expenditure needed for repairs to the roof of the Police Department's headquarters, as a result of damage caused by the hailstorm that occurred on April 15th, and also as a result of some FY 2023 projects, such as the Civic Center Balcony Rail project and the Main Library Chiller/Hot Water Piping project, requiring more funding that initially budgeted, the Capital Reserve Fund in FY 2024 will need a transfer from the General Fund totaling $942,700 in order to fund the projects that are budgeted and to maintain the budgeted Ending Fund Balance of $51,418.

The Public, Education, and Government (PEG) Fund's unaudited Ending Fund Balance for Fiscal Year 2023 is estimated to exceed the projected FY2023 Ending Fund Balance by $436,587, due mainly to not utilizing funding in 2023 because we always budget all of the fund balance for use, and we didn't have allowable projects to spend it on. The total carryover amount from FY2023 to FY2024 totals $14,138 and includes funds carried over for equipment needs for the City Council Chambers. The projected Ending Fund Balance in this Fund for FY 2024 is $422,449. PEG Fund Original Bud et Proposed Amendment Amended Budget Total Expenditures $1,531,6001 $14,138.00 $1,545,738 Approval of the ordinance.
