This budget will raise more total property taxes
than last year’s budget by $594,939 or 5%,
and of that amount $337,843 is tax revenue to
be raised from new property added to the roll
this year.
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) presented a
Distinguished Budget Presentation Award to City of Friendswood, Texas for its annual budget for the
fiscal beginning October 1, 2006. In order to receive this award, a governmental unit must publish a budget
document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan, and
as a communications device.
This award is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current budget continues to conform to
program requirements, and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another award.

Changes to the FY08 Proposed Budget

Additional operating revenues are projected to total $1,282,759 over the current
year budget. This represents 7.6% more operating/ongoing revenues. Of these
additional revenues, the typical homeowner with a homestead exemption will
contribute additional ad valorem revenues of $398,491 or 31% of the total additional
funds. Of this increase, $283,920 or 71% is attributable to new construction
(commercial and residential). $114,571 or 29% is coming from a proposed increase
of 3% over the effective tax rate. Additional detail to this resource and the others
that comprise the balance of the growth in revenue are detailed further in this letter.
As in prior years the budget document includes the development of performance
measures. Our goal in doing so is to continue to provide better information and
exhibit how well the needs of our citizens and customers are being met. Because of
the additional effort and other improvements to the budget, the City received the
Government Finance Officers Association Distinguished Budget Presentation Award
for its FY06-07 document. The City is honored to have been awarded this
recognition for a fourth consecutive year.
Several years ago, the City Council made a very important financial decision. The
decision was to develop a budget and operate the City based on current revenues, or
funds generated in the current fiscal year. The result is that any revenues exceeding
the budgeted amount and any budgeted expenditures not made in the fiscal year,
are added to fund balance. This was done to better prepare the City financially in
the event of any catastrophic event, and accumulate funding for future capital
projects. This policy supports funding ongoing revenues with ongoing sources and
one-time revenues with one-time expenditures.
A second benefit of this decision was the impact on the City’s bond rating. The City’s
bond rating from Standard & Poor’s was upgraded from A to A+ for our last general
obligation (G.O.) bond issue in 2005. Moody’s maintained its A1 rating for this bond
issue. This was the second of three G.O. bond issues that were approved by the
citizens in 2003. The third and final issue is scheduled for the 2007-08 fiscal year.
Friendswood’s population continues to grow and is currently estimated to be 34,500.
Growth is expected to accelerate somewhat this year with the development of
several new subdivisions (West Ranch in particular). This growth will continue to
place increasing demands on City services. Identifying new revenue streams,
especially in the General Fund, will become increasingly important, if not elusive.
Key Budget Objectives
• Deliver existing public services and resulting value stream for the service
level legally mandated and ordained by Council (present and past)
• Protect and promote greatest city assets in the delivery of the public value
stream produce with adequate pay and compensation for merit performance
and professionalism
• Address infrastructure issues associated primarily with drainage
improvements needed, capital improvements and legal proportionality of
required exactions for new development (including the requisite planning
therefore) to protect and improve quality of life for the public and attract
economic development to diverse the tax base to relieve pressure on the ad
valorem tax base and homeowner burden
4
• Secure alternate revenues streams other than property tax by maximizing
state options for local sales tax expansion to be determined by Council
• Keeping the cost for such public service value stream and delivery as
competitive, effective and efficient as possible
General Fund
The City’s largest single source of revenue continues to be property taxes. The
proposed budget includes staff’s projection of the estimated effective tax rate plus 3
percent, $.5764. This rate consists of a maintenance and operations (M&O) tax rate
of $.5016 and an I&S (debt service) tax rate of $.0748. We have not received
certified values from the Galveston Central Appraisal District for 2007, but have
preliminary numbers with approved values totaling $2,104,618,733 and $49,929,178
under review. We will adjust our property tax revenue after receiving certified
numbers from the Appraisal District and report this to Council in an upcoming work
session.

FY04 FY05 FY06 FY07 FY08 The second largest source of revenue in the General Fund is Sales Tax. We are projecting
an increase in this revenue stream of $391,000 over the 2006–07 budget of $3,359,000.
This brings the proposed budget to $3,750,000. Although this is a relatively large
increase over previous years, we believe it remains a conservative projection, recognizing
that sales tax volatility has caused many cities tremendous budget difficulties. The City’s
sales tax revenue base has consistently grown from its base of many smaller retail centers
rather than any single large outlet.
Franchise Fee and Right-of-Way Access revenue are projected to increase by
approximately $52,000 from FY07. This is a 4.5% increase as compared to the FY07
budget and is attributed to population growth and increased cable franchisee revenues.
Revenue from Building Licenses,
Permits and Plan Check Fees is
predominately based on residential
building permits. 2007 revenues
totaling $507,500 are projected at
almost the same amount as the FY07
Adopted Budget.

Municipal Court fines and fees are another major source of general fund revenue. Citations
processed by the Court have increased dramatically over the past 6 years, growing from
just over 8,000 to an estimate of 15,000 for 2007-08. This represents a 14% average
annual increase over that period. As a result, court revenues are projected at $1,078,700,
an increase of $225,230. The FY08 Proposed Budget also includes the Court
Technology/Court Security Fund which contains revenue derived from the court security and
court technology fees. These funds can only be used for specific projects related to court
security and technology.

FY05 $716,800
FY06 $829,605
FY07 $853,470
FY08 $1,078,700
Interest income is the last significant
general fund revenue source. Interest
rates have risen from their previous historic lows and both pooled and fixed investments are
generating increased revenue. Because of this trend we have projected $462,500 in
interest revenue, an increase of $213,000 over last year’s budget.
Year Revenues
FY04 $155,400
FY05 $97,070
FY06 $209,900
FY07 $249,072

Water and Sewer Fund
2006-07 has been a historically “wet year” for all of Southeast Texas. As a result water
consumption is down and we don’t expect to meet the current budget for water and sewer
revenue. We have factored this year’s experience into our projections for 2007-08 and
have budgeted water revenues at $4,238,169. This is a $348,000 (7.5%) decrease from
the current year budget of $4,586,000. Sewer revenue is budgeted at $3,611,500, a 4.2%
decrease from the FY06 budget.

The proposed budget continues to emphasize the importance of meeting the demands of
growth while maintaining the City’s quality of life. Our responsibility, as directed by City
Council’s Vision Statement, is to provide a safe place for people to “live, work, play and
worship.” This is done by continuing to focus on the City’s infrastructure, including its most
valuable asset – the City’s employees. In addition to the existing work programs, the
following items are included in the proposed budget.
The City’s “Human Infrastructure” (its employees) are receiving attention in the 2006 – 07
fiscal year in the form of a Compensation and Classification Study. This will ensure the pay
plan is structured to provide internal equity among the employees and is competitive with
other cities. Although the consulting work was funded in the previous fiscal year, funding
for salary adjustments is included in the proposed budget totaling $270,000 in the General
Fund and $30,000 in Water and Sewer. An additional $366,000 was added for this purpose,
if sufficient revenues are available after certified values are received and the tax rate is
adjusted.
The City is a service organization, and as such, the City’s service providers, or Personnel,
are the most important part of the City’s infrastructure.
Council has supported a pay plan that properly compensates the employees and has
typically provided annual merit funding. The FY08 Proposed Budget includes $139,000 in
General Fund and $19,400 in the Water and Sewer Fund to provide 3% merit funding in this
budget. No Cost Of Living Adjustments (COLA) or “across the board” pay increases are
included.
Four full-time positions and three part-time are proposed in this budget. You will see that
Staff has emphasized public safety in its decision package prioritization. Three full-time and
three part-time Police positions are included in the proposed budget. One of the full-time
and two of the part-time positions were authorized, but not funded, by City Council in the
2006-07 budget development. The remaining two full-time Police positions are new and
included in the budget to maintain the 1.5 officers per 1,000 population staffing level. In
addition, a part-time Animal Control position has been included in the Police Department. A
clerical position in the Municipal Court and part-time position, Media Technician, are added
in other City departments. The Media Technician is proposed to staff the multi-camera
video equipment that will be used to record and televise Council meetings on the City’s PEG
TV channel. This system is budgeted at $25,000 and was requested by Council as an
upgrade to the current single-camera system. The amounts below include salaries,
benefits and any additional equipment required for the new employee.

Street improvements have again received a high level of importance in this year’s budget.
Included in the FY07 proposed budget is $1,015,000 for concrete and asphalt street repairs
and sidewalk improvements. This is an increase of $215,000 over the FY07 Adopted Budget
and represents an ongoing commitment to street maintenance. In addition to the funding
for street improvements, $50,000 is budgeted to develop a Citywide Street Pavement
Master Plan. The purpose of this work is to develop a plan to ensure street
repairs/improvements are being performed in a systematic and strategic manner.
Parks are a distinguishable characteristic of Friendswood. The FY08 Proposed Budget
includes funds to maintain the City’s parks, including:
• Phase 2 of the replacement of the existing playground at Stevenson Park. The new
playground will be handicap accessible - $23,000.
• Replace the metal roof on the Leavesley Park Hangar - $30,000.
• Replace one HVAC unit for the Leavesley Park Hangar - $6,500.
• Replace 10 – metal picnic tables in Stevenson Park - $7,000.
• Provide shade structure for Stevenson Park pool patrons - $19,500.
• Repair or replace the rear entry doors at City Hall - $2,000.
• Library Expansion – Develop schematic drawings – $34,000.
The proposed budget also includes several items for the City Secretary’s office.

Budgets across all City departments have been greatly impacted with the cost of fuel
reaching all-time high prices. To help recognize this impact, the general fund has been
increased by $39,977. The water and sewer fund has also been increased, in the amount of
$9,316. This is a 25% increase from FY07. Although not huge amounts, these are
important adjustments. The Budget office will continue to monitor the price of fuel to
ensure service delivery is not impacted during the upcoming year.
A second City-wide impact on our budget is the increased cost of electricity. We have
included $56,000 in General Fund and $17,400 in Water and Sewer to recognize the growth
in the cost of this essential resource.
An extremely significant change in the City’s relationship with the Friendswood Volunteer Fire
Department (FVFD) began in FY04-05. We are now going into the fourth year of a contract that
was established with FVFD to provide fire and emergency management services to the City. The
prior contract was approved in 1981, and did not anticipate the level of technology, the liability
that exists today or the size of the operation of both the city and the FVFD. The contract
includes the following features:
• All paid staff is under the supervision and authority of the FVFD.
• All equipment is under the maintenance and operation of the FVFD.
• All facilities (with the exception of major repair items) are under the maintenance and
operation of the FVFD.
• All insurance coverage is the responsibility of the FVFD with incentives and
disincentives depending on experience.
• Performance measures and reporting requirements for firefighting and ambulance
responses are in place calling for specific response times, and manpower requirements for
each response.
• Performance measures and reporting requirements for maintenance and operation of
equipment are in place calling for specific maintenance guidelines.
• Performance measures and reporting requirements for training of manpower, both fire
and EMS, are in place.
• The City covers the costs of providing these services.
• The City pays a fee of $10 per run to the Equipment Replacement Fund (the same fund
the voluntary donations from the City utility bill go to) to assist in the replacement of
capital equipment. This fee is projected to be approximately $25,000 for 2007-08.
In addition, the following items are included in the FY08 Proposed Budget are requests from
the FVFD.
• Cell phone and pager cost increase - $3,800
• Cost increase for medical supplies, inspection & certification - $8,000
• Pay increase for full-time staff and additional administrative support - $22,959
• Per call stipend for Volunteer Firefighters - $21,000
• Volunteer Pension Fund contribution increase - $14,400
• Community and Awards Banquet Events - $5,000
• The following debt payments are funded from Fire/EMS Donations. We have
budgeted $233,000 in revenue from this source for 2007-08.
o Annual debt service for the 100’ aerial platform truck - $80,572.
o Annual debt service for a new fire truck – approximately $62,000.
• The following three equipment purchases are funded by a combination of 2007-
08 projected donations and FVFD resources.
o Replacement ambulance - $140,000
o Replacement vehicle for Fire Chief - $40,000
o Jaws of Life Rescue System - $20,000

Information on the City of Friendswood
Form of Government
The City of Friendswood, Texas was incorporated on October 15, 1960. The charter provided for
a Mayor-Council form of city government. The charter was amended on October 16, 1971 to
provide for a City Council-City Manager form of city government.
The Mayor and six Council members are elected from the City at large to serve three-year terms.
A charter amendment was approved May 4, 1992, to extend terms to three years from two years
to be phased in over a three-year period beginning in 1993. A three-term limitation was also
approved in 1992.
The City Council is the principal legislative body of the City. The City Manager is appointed by a
majority vote of the City Council and is responsible to the Council for the administration of all the
affairs of the City including the appointment and removal of department directors and employees,
supervision and control of all City departments and preparation of the annual budget. The Mayor
presides at meetings of the City Council.

Economic Outlook
The Friendswood/Bay Area Houston economy is comprised of well over 12,000 business
establishments. The population of the service area, defined by parts of Harris and Galveston
counties and nine municipalities including Friendswood, southeast Houston, Kemah, La Porte,
League City, Nassau Bay, Pasadena, Seabrook, and Webster is approximately 350,000. The
Friendswood/Bay Area regional economy has become more diverse featuring aerospace,
biotechnology, chemical products, recreation, and tourism.
Aerospace
The Friendswood/Bay Area Houston region is home to NASA – Johnson
Space Center and its numerous aerospace contractors. The service area
represents 92 percent of all aerospace jobs in metropolitan Houston, even
though it accounts for just 4.5 percent of total Houston Jobs.
Biotechnology
Bioscience and biotechnology represent a strong technology cluster for Bay
Area Houston with more than two times the national average activity. There
are approximately 2,900 people employed in Bay Area Houston’s bio sector.
There is a concentrated representation of medical device, biometrics and
basic bio-research operations in the area.
17
Chemical Products
Another large and relatively stable business cluster is the petrochemical
refining and specialty chemical industry. One of the nation’s largest
privately developed industrial facilities, Bayport, is home to approximately
65 operating specialty chemical plants employing 9,000 to 10,000 workers.
Recreation and Tourism
The fourth economic sector combines boating, recreation, and tourism on
Texas’ Gulf Coast. About 24 marinas provide 8,000 boat slips of all sizes
and dockage facilities for the power and sail boating enthusiast. The area
offers amusement parks, like Space Center Houston, and the Kemah
Boardwalk, as well as ecotourism, upscale shopping and fine seafood
restaurants. Conservative estimates reveal that 2-3 million tourists visit Bay
Area Houston annually.
Planning for the Future
In 1998, the City achieved a significant goal with the development of Vision 2020, the
community’s strategic initiative for Friendswood to the year 2020. This plan, developed with
active citizen input, has been the foundation for our goals, Comprehensive Plan, Capital
Improvement Plan and annual budget. By working together to implement these plans, the City
Council and staff will ensure the citizens’ vision for 2020 can, in fact, become reality.

Fund Schedules
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have
been segregated for specific activities or objectives. Fund accounting is used by state and local
governments to control and manage money for particular purposes and to ensure finance-related
legal requirements. The City uses two fund types – governmental and proprietary.
Governmental Funds
The City maintains several governmental funds. All governmental funds are budgeted and are
presented separately. Each fund schedule includes revenues and expenditures for FY06 actual;
FY07 Original and Amended budgets as well as year-to-date actual thru June; and the FY08
Proposed Budget. The General Fund and Capital Projects Fund are considered to be major funds.
The other funds are non-major funds. The funds and a short description are listed below.
Additional detail information about each fund is presented prior to each fund schedule.
General Fund
The General Fund is a governmental fund used to account for the resources used to finance the
fundamental operations of the City. It is the basic fund of the City and covers all activities for
which a separate fund has not been established. Governmental activities include most of the
City’s basic services, (general government, public safety, community development and public
works and community services.)
Special Revenue Funds
Special Revenue Funds are governmental funds used to account for the proceeds of specific
revenue sources that are legally restricted to financing specific purposes. There are five Special
Revenue Funds.
Police Investigation Fund
Fire/EMS Donation Fund
Park Land Dedication Fund
Park Playground Equipment Fund
Court Security/Technology Fund
Tax Debt Service Fund
The Tax Debt Service Fund is a governmental fund used to account for property taxes levied for
payment of principal and interest on general long-term debt of the City.
Capital Project Funds
The Capital Project Funds are governmental funds used to account for proceeds of the sale of
Texas Permanent Improvement Bonds.
1776 Park Trust Fund
This fund was established in fiscal year 1979-80 to account for 1776 Park assets held by the City in a
trustee capacity. The 1776 Park land was donated to the City, along with $10,000. The funds are
invested and the interest earned is used to maintain and/or make improvements to the park.
Proprietary Funds
The City maintains two types of proprietary funds. The City uses the Enterprise fund for water
and sewer operations. The enterprise fund reports the same functions presented as business-type
activities. The second proprietary fund is the Internal Service Fund. This fund is used to account
for fleet management services. The funds and a short description are listed below. Additional
detail information about each fund is presented prior to each fund schedule.
29
Enterprise Fund
The Enterprise Fund is used to budget for the acquisition, operation and maintenance of
governmental facilities and services that are entirely or predominantly self-supporting by user
charges. The business-type activities of the Enterprise Fund include the City’s water and sewer
system. The Enterprise Fund is maintained in seven separate funds in the City’s accounting
system but presented as one Enterprise Fund in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
However, the City budgets each of the seven components as separate Water and Sewer funds.
The budgeted Water and Sewer Funds include:
Water and Sewer Operation Fund
2006 Water and Sewer Bond Construction Fund
Water CIP/Impact Fee Fund
Sewer CIP/Impact Fee Fund
Water and Sewer Revenue Debt Service Fund
INTERNAL SERVICE FUND
This internal service fund was established in fiscal year 2001-02 and is used to account for acquisition
and replacement of City vehicles costing less than $50,000.

**Projected fund balance at September 30, 2008 is $10.2 million. $266,243 is designated and reserved.
Undesignated fund balance is $10.2 million, which includes a 90-day operating reserve of $4.6
million, as set forth in the City's financial policies. The reserve is designed "to protect the City's
creditworthiness as well as its financial position from unforeseeable emergencies." The policies
state that "additional undesignated funds will be allowed to accumulate in a fund designated
for future General Fund capital improvements."
The General Fund accounts for the resources used to finance the fundamental operations of the
City. It is the basic fund of the City and covers all activities for which a separate fund has not been
established. The basis of budgeting for the General Fund is modified accrual and is the same as the
basis of accounting used in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. The principal sources of
revenue of the General Fund include property taxes, sales and use taxes, franchise taxes, fines
and forfeitures, permits and fees, and charges for services. Expenditures include general
government, public safety, community development, public works and community services.

Special Revenue Funds
These funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are
legally restricted to financing specific purposes. The basis of budgeting for all Special
Revenue Funds is the modified accrual method and is the same as the basis of
accounting used in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. The following describes
the various types of Special Revenue Funds used by the City:
Police Investigation Fund
This fund is used to account for revenues that are restricted to police investigation
expenditures.
Fire/EMS Donation Fund
This fund is used to account for revenues that are restricted for Fire/EMS capital outlays
and debt repayments. The principal sources of revenues are donations received from
residents and proceeds from the sale of capital equipment. The revenues are used to
purchase fire trucks, ambulances and other equipment for three fire stations and
Friendswood volunteer fire fighting and emergency medical services personnel.
Park Land Dedication Fund
This fund is used to account for receipts from developers to build or enhance
neighborhood and community parks. The receipts remain in the fund until such time as
the Community Services department submits a supplemental request during the budget
preparation process to use the funds for specific park projects or submits a request to
the City Manager and City Council for a supplemental appropriation.
Park Playground Fund
This fund is used to account for receipts from donations to construct a new playground at
Stevenson Park. The proposed playground is estimated to cost over $300,000. The
receipts will accumulate in the fund until such time as the Community Services
department submits a supplemental request during the budget preparation process or
submits a request to the City Manager and City Council for a supplemental appropriation
to construct the playground.
Court Security/Technology Fund
In 1999, the State Legislature authorized a Court Technology and Court Security Fee for
Municipal Court fines. Those who pay citations at the Friendswood Municipal Court
contribute to these fees. The fees can be used to fund court related security and
technology projects.

Tax Debt Service Fund
The Tax Debt Service Fund is used to account for property taxes levied for payment of
principal and interest on all general long-term debt of the City. The basis of budgeting
for the Tax Debt Service Fund is the modified accrual method and is the same as the
basis of accounting reported in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
Debt Limits
The City and various other political subdivisions of government which overlap all or a
portion of the City are empowered to incur debt to be paid from revenues raised or to be
raised by taxation against all or a portion of property within the City. Article XI, Section
5 of the Texas Constitution, provides for an overall limitation for Home Rule Cities of
$2.50 per $100 assessed valuation.
The Attorney General of Texas follows a policy, with respect to Home Rule Cities which
have a $2.50 limitation, of approving ad valorem tax bonds only to the extent that all of
such city’s ad valorem tax debt can be serviced by a debt service tax rate of $1.50 at
90% collection, or $1.35 per $100 of net assessed value at 100% collection rate. This
budget reflects a debt service tax rate of $.0748 per $100 of net assessed value at
100% collection rate.

City Secretary
Mission Statement
The City Secretary’s office provides information to citizens of Friendswood, elected officials, staff
and the public in accordance with State law, charter of the City of Friendswood and other rules
and regulations as adopted.
Current Operations
The City Secretary’s Department is staffed by five employees. The City Secretary reports
directly to the Mayor and City Council.
Services provided by the City Secretary’s office focus on administrative, public relations, records
(internal and external), elections and providing information to citizens of Friendswood, elected
officials and staff. The City Secretary’s Department provides information, as requested, regarding
operation of the city to the community as a whole, including the Mayor, Councilmembers, city
staff, citizens and interested parties; maintains custody of all municipal records; administers the
records management program; and, recommends rules and regulations to be adopted by
ordinances to protect the safety and security of the municipal records. Additionally, the City
Secretary’s Department attends and records the minutes of all official meetings of Council, attests
to all instruments requiring execution, conducts and coordinates the city election, and provides
election services to other entities. The activities also include coordinating the appointments of
boards, committees and commissions, providing staff support for certain committees and related
council activities, publishing official notices of the city, issuing certain licenses and permits,
coordinating updates to the Friendswood Code of Ordinances, and performing other duties and
responsibilities that may be required.
Election Services
The City Secretary’s office conducts all city elections as called for in accordance with Texas
Municipal Laws and Charter provisions of the City of Friendswood, in addition to conducting a joint
election with Galveston County Consolidated Drainage District and providing for election services
to Friendswood Independent School District on a contractual basis.
Records Management Program
According to Chapter 1248, Acts of the 71st Legislature, a Records Management Program is
required. This program provides for an efficient, economical and effective control over the
creation, distribution, organization, maintenance, use, and disposition of all city records through a
comprehensive system of integrated procedures for the management of records or their ultimate
disposition in accordance with state law.
A centralized Records Storage Center has been established and a Records Management Program
has been developed and implemented. Accordingly, records from all departments, allowed by law
to be destroyed, are reviewed annually or bi-annually, as needed, and scheduled for destruction.
This process provides record storage space for ongoing implementation of the retention schedule.
Laserfiche Program
To implement a systematic computerized scanning and indexing of all records of City Council
meetings and other records, that will provide for efficient retrieval capabilities that will provide
59
City Secretary
information to the Mayor and Council, all departments, and all citizens on an as needed basis.
This will provide for a comprehensive subject matter index of all official records and City Minutes
in hard copy and/or in electronic format. The needed information will be easily accessible to City
Officials, City Staff and citizens.
Highlights of the Budget
Election Services
The City Secretary’s office conducts all city elections as called for in accordance with Texas
Municipal Laws and Charter provisions of the City of Friendswood, in addition to conducting a joint
election with Galveston County Consolidated Drainage District (GCCDD) and providing for election
services to Friendswood Independent School District (FISD) on a contractual basis. We anticipate
conducting a general election for the City and GCCDD and provide election services for FISD
School Board elections. Contracts have been negotiated with Galveston County Consolidated
Drainage District and Friendswood Independent School District to partner with the city in
purchasing an electronic voting system that is consistent with the electronic equipment used by
Galveston and Harris Counties. The City has purchased 9 eSlates, for both Election Day polling
places and for early voting. These eSlates are used in conjunction with eScan paper ballots as a
hybrid voting system. It is projected that Galveston County will move forward quickly with an all
electronic voting system. In order to provide the same level of voting system, included in this
budget are funds to purchase 6 additional eSlates to add to the available electronic voting
equipment. It will be a goal to budget annually to provide the quantity of eSlates needed in order
to provide for an all electronic voting system by 2010. Funds are included in this budget to
provide for backup equipment for one Judge’s Controller Booth and for one eScan.
Records Management Program
A records storage area is part of the Public Safety Building that will house Police, Municipal Court
and Fire Marshal/Emergency Operations Center Records. Discussions have been ongoing
regarding projecting and planning for a second records storage center to replace the existing
records storage center for the City Manager’s office, Administrative Services, Community
Services, Public Works, Community Development, Library, and City Secretary’s office. The
existing records storage center is located in the old City Hall Annex and is in the projected
Downtown revitalization area. Funds were requested and funded last year to provide for an
architectural study for building a new facility. This study provided the needed information to
move this process into the CIP for future consideration regarding building a facility to house
records from all Departments. Due to grave concerns regarding the current declining condition of
the facility housing the City of Friendswood records, “all” records have been moved from the
Records Center to an off-site storage facility that is climate controlled and is built to withstand
120 MPH winds and to the new Public Safety Building.
Records and Laserfiche Program
Continue the ongoing scanning program of all records of City Council Meetings and other
documents. Continue developing programs for citywide access to all permanent documents i.e.
minutes, ordinances, resolutions, contracts, deeds, easements and vehicle titles. Implement
additional electronic capability for all departments to search, access and retrieve all permanent
records. Continue to scan all documents as approved by Council and make available to City Staff
60
City Secretary
for search, retrieval and printing capabilities. This process eliminates numbers of hard copies
being produced and stored by numerous departments. This program will be an ongoing work in
progress to provide that all other documents will be scanned into Laserfiche and become available
to anyone needing this information. This Department, in a cooperative effort with Planning and
Zoning Commission, has completed the scanning in of all past minutes of the Commission and are
kept up-to-date as minutes are approved. In a continued effort to enhance this records system,
monies have been requested to fund Records Management software and a WebLink program that
with interface with the current Laserfiche Program. Funds have been requested to attend the
annual Laserfiche training program. Funds have been requested to provide a copier/printer/fax
and computer for the Records Division at the new Public Safety Building.

City Manager’s Office
Mission Statement
The City Manager provides for the general administration of the City carrying out the City
Council’s policies and objectives. All City programs, services, and operations are directed
and coordinated by the City Manager. The City Manager’s Office is represented by two
divisions: Administration and Economic Development. There are five full-time employees
and one part-time employee in the department.
Current Operations
Administration
This division encompasses the City Manager’s core administrative and oversight functions;
as well as communication management and organizational development and planning.
Division staff provides wide-ranging administrative support activities for the City Manager
including: policy research, program analysis, Council agenda development, departmental
records coordination, project administration, general public information, and citizen
comment and complaint management.
Economic Development
In order to provide Friendswood a more stable economic future by expanding the city’s
commercial tax base, this division is responsible for developing and administering programs
to retain and attract businesses that are compatible with our community’s vision and values.
The Economic Development Coordinator administers programs to assist with business
prospect recruitment, marketing and retention. The Coordinator also serves as liaison
between City staff, business leaders, and economic development organizations.
Staff support for the City’s Community and Economic Development Committee (CEDC) is
also provided by this division.
Highlights of Budget
The FY 2007-08 Proposed Budget continues to fund important citywide communications
programs, including the Focus on Friendswood newsletter as well as the City’s Public-
Educational-Governmental (PEG) access channel. The Focus on Friendswood newsletter
contains valuable City news, events, and announcements and is mailed to residents
quarterly. This year will mark the second year of the City’s new PEG channel is utilized, and
the first full year that City Council meetings will be televised on the channel. The goal of
the channel is to communicate with residents about City related programs, meetings,
services, events, job postings, and emergency information.
Since 2003, the City has contracted with a professional marketing firm to assist with a
comprehensive communication campaign. The firm generates news releases, media
information and contacts, printed materials, direct mail campaigns, and a special electronic
newsletter. The Economic Development Office also sponsors an annual broker/developer
workshop focused on the benefits of doing business in Friendswood. This event is
attended by approximately 50 Houston area real estate brokers, developers, and bank
representatives. The Economic Development Coordinator participates in regional, state, and
69
City Manager’s Office
national site visits, tradeshows, and conferences to promote commercial development to the
city.
To maximize our resources, the City continues to participate in regional economic
development partnerships that advocate and pursue issues that are important for retaining
and strengthening the economic base and business climate of our area. These partnerships
include membership in the Friendswood Chamber of Commerce, Galveston County Economic
Alliance and the Bay Area Houston Economic Partnership.

Administrative Services
Mission Statement
The Administrative Services Department is responsible for providing superior administrative
and financial support services to our citizens and City employees. Customer service to both
our external and internal customers is emphasized and provided through a very diverse set
of programs: Finance, Utility Billing/Customer Service, Human Resources/Risk
Management, Municipal Court Administration and Information Technology Services.
Current Operations
Finance services include accounting, payroll, budget and cash management. Investment of
the City’s financial resources is accomplished by the Director of Administrative Services with
oversight from the City’s Investment Committee.
Staff continues to use technological advancements to improve efficiency. Staff is currently
implementing an automated time and attendance system during fiscal year 2006-07. The
system is expected to be fully implemented by early 2007-08. The system has been well
received by supervisors and employees.
Lock box payments for utility payments paid on-line through personal banking software was
also implemented by our staff. Payments were previously received in the mail and
customers had to allow for this delay. The lock box enables the customer to pay closer to
the due date. The process also reduced staff time previously committed to opening,
batching and keying these payments.
The Finance staff is responsible for preparing the City’s annual budget, working with the
external auditors to perform the annual audit and prepare the Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report. The City has received the Award for Excellence in Financial Reporting from
the Government Finance Officers Association, the premier, national, municipal finance
organization, for 19 consecutive years. For the fourth consecutive year, the City was
awarded the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award from the Government Finance
Officers Association. The guidelines for this program assess how well an entity’s budget
serves as a policy document, a financial plan, an operational plan and a communications
device.
Utility Billing/Customer Service personnel provide billing, collection and customer
information services for 11,662 accounts. This includes processing approximately 70,000
bills and payments annually, as well as handling 25,000 phone calls and walk-in customers
in an average year. This area, along with Municipal Court personnel, faces daily
challenges as they deal with customers and apply the City’s billing and collection policies
that are set by City ordinance or resolution. Their goal is to apply even-handed, quality
service to all City utility customers.
Municipal Court’s function is to bring a fair and equitable conclusion to all misdemeanor
cases filed in the City. The Court Office is responsible for maintaining accurate records of all
court cases filed and disposed of in the City, as well as processing payments and serving
warrants. With the exception of holidays, the Municipal Court holds court each Wednesday
at 6:30 p.m. and at 8:30 a.m. on the second and fourth or fifth Wednesdays at the recently
constructed Public Safety Building. Current activity level indicates we will process
approximately 15,000 Class C Misdemeanors during 2006-07. Semi-monthly daytime court
78
Administrative Services
settings, in addition to the weekly evening court setting, help minimize the delay in setting
court dates.
The goal for the Municipal Court is to handle violations in accordance with State Law, City
Ordinance and policies set by the municipal judge, to see that every person is treated fairly
and equally, and to manage court operations efficiently.
The Human Resources/Risk Management Division is responsible for all human resource
and risk management functions, including recruitment, compensation, EEO compliance,
employee benefits, training and development, new employee orientation, employee safety,
unemployment, liability and property claims and personnel policy and maintenance. One
highlight this year was the CPR and Automated External Defibrillators (AED) training that
was provided by the Safety Coordinator. AEDs have been installed in most City facilities.
The mission of the Information Technology division is to provide reliable computer
systems and timely and efficient systems support to all departments by maximizing all
technology related resources, maintain a current standard of hardware and software, and
provide technical guidance and planning for future systems direction and support.
Information Technology Services operates and maintains the City’s computer hardware and
software, and assists staff in hardware and software usage and training. The computer
systems include two IBM iSeries systems. One is located in City Hall and processes the
software for finance, accounting, land management, building permits, utility billing, work
orders, fleet management and municipal court. The second one is located at the Public
Safety Building and operates the Police Department’s Crimes and Computer Aided Dispatch
software. The City network includes fiber optic cable and data communications equipment
connecting all City buildings to six Windows based servers, a firewall and a Storage Area
Network (SAN) located at City Hall, two servers at the Police Department, and two servers
at the Library. These servers provide for e-mail, file storage, web site, on-line services and
various other applications. The IT staff supports over 40 different applications and software
interfaces, a standard set of desktop office applications, and all new technology items
installed in the new Public Safety Building. IT also provides support for the operation of the
City’s cable TV channel and formatting of content.
The new City web site was deployed in February of 2006. It was redesigned with the
primary intent of making it easier for citizens to find the information they are seeking. IT
currently supports E-Gov applications for Utility Bill inquiry and payment, Court case inquiry
and payment, Building Permit inquiry and inspection scheduling.
Another significant IT project will positively impact both the patrol division of the Police
department and the Municipal Court. Automated citation software and hardware has been
purchased and implemented. This system allows a police officer to issue a citation and then
electronically send the citation to the Municipal Court records management system. This
benefits the City by ensuring timely submission of the citations and at the same time greatly
reducing the time required to enter citations into the court system. Court technology fees
paid by the municipal court “customers” provided funding for the project.

Trend: In previous years, a defendant was required to contact the court to be
assigned a day and time to appear (usually 60-65 days from date of citation to the
arraignment date). The police officers are now scheduling the court appearance times
on the citation with arraignment dates now falling about 45 days from the date of the
citation. The Municipal Court has two prosecutors who alternate court sessions on
Wednesdays, with both prosecutors working together on two Wednesdays per month.
One prosecutor works the day court twice per month. We are proposing to double our
daytime courts to every Wednesday morning in fiscal year 2008.

Trend: The Friendswood Police Department issued just under 8,200 citations for
the fiscal year ending 9/30/02. The number of citations issued continues to
increase with 11,630 in fiscal year 2003, 13,130 in 2004, 14,330 in fiscal year
2005, and 15,000 for 2006. The projected number of citations for fiscal year ending
9/30/07 is 15,000. The Friendswood Police Department is utilizing automatic
citation writers, enabling the Municipal Court to electronically download the
citations into the court system. Approximately 50% of the citations are entered
electronically and 50% require manual entry. Implementation of the automatic
citation writer software has significantly decreased the time required for manual
data entry. All police officers are expected to be trained on the software by fiscal
year end in September 2007. During fiscal year 2008, citation writers should

Trend: Due to the level of outstanding revenues owed to the state from court fines
and fees, the legislature has made collections a priority for courts. The current
legislation requires all cities with a population of 100,000 to develop collection
programs. The legislation requires the cities use both outside collection resources
as well as develop in-house programs. To reduce the likelihood that a defendant’s
citation will result in a warrant and to aid in the timely and effective collection of
fines, the municipal court proposes a formal collection program that focuses more
effort on early collection. Currently, the number of personnel limits municipal
court’s ability to fully staff a collections program. In the 2007-08 budget, we will
request an additional clerk. This position will assist with the collection program and
process the paperwork necessary to produce a warrant, which would allow the
Warrant Officer more time in the “field.”

necessary and practical, the Safety and Training Coordinator will develop the program
or seek external training resources. The City formed a Safety Committee in January
2005 with the purpose of acting as a liaison to their respective departments and
assisting in communications and training. The Safety Committee will investigate all

days. This was a remarkable accomplishment that can be attributed to the employees
and the safety program. Thus far, in fiscal year 2007, we have experienced only 1
injury that has resulted in 19 days of lost time. We have taken corrective action to
eliminate the factor causing the accident. We have had 4 additional reportable injuries

continue to explore new recruiting methods and tools to attract the best available
employees. The increased recruitment effort should increase the number of applications
depending on the type and number of job vacancies.

Trend: The Classification and Pay Plan Committee delivers an essential service to the
City’s management. The committee plays an integral part in the compensation strategy
through its evaluation of positions by use of a standardized tool. The evaluations allow the
committee to classify the positions for placement into a salary grade. With its compensation
strategy, the city seeks to attract and retain competent employees. A major component of
that strategy is to measure the comparable wages of similar jobs through salary surveys.
However, with the expected demand on the job market we may see more difficulty to
recruit and hire good employees and we could experience an employee retention issue if we
fail to maintain competitive salaries. To judge the market demand an annual salary survey
is conducted to measure wage growth compared to benchmark positions within the city pay
plan. In addition to the annual City salary survey Human Resources conducts a number of
salary surveys for individual positions. These individual position salary surveys are
conducted on positions that demonstrate unique market forces that influence wages. The
number of individual position salary surveys is likely to rise due to increased market
demands for good employees especially in fields requiring technical skills or advanced
education.

This will require aggressive system improvements in the way vehicles are serviced. Reductions in
other areas may be necessary to cover the deficit. The increased costs of doing business have
been passed off to the end user causing maintenance prices to increase. Budget increases in
these areas are necessary. The police services field requires mobility and has an ever increasing
demand for technology. This increased technology has caused maintenance costs to rise. Many
of these technological advancements are mandated by State Law such as the in-car video
cameras for racial profiling.
Capital Replacement and Additional Equipment
The budget contains critical equipment (both capital and non capital items). Equipment for new
positions (one marked patrol car, uniforms, radios, etc.) is included in the funding related to
adding two new police officers. The budget includes funding for replacement vehicles from the
Vehicle Replacement Fund. Based on annual mileage of 25,000 per vehicle, there will be a need
to replace five marked patrol vehicles; at time of replacement each vehicle will have
approximately 90,000 miles. As part of the Vehicle Replacement Fund, the department replaces
emergency light and sound equipment, speed measuring devices, in-car video cameras and
mobile data terminals in marked patrol cars every six to eight years; making this equipment last
through two lifecycles.
Alternative Revenue Streams
Victims of Crime Act Grant, LEOSE Training Allocation, Texas Department of Transportation
Selective Traffic Enforcement Program, and Bulletproof Vest Partnership Act, 50/50 cost sharing
with Friendswood Independent School District for two school resource officers, Friendswood
Independent School District school zone coverage and security fees, 50/50 cost sharing with Clear
Creek Independent School District for five school crossing guards, Texas Department of Public
Safety Commercial Vehicle Inspection program, partnership with the Drug Enforcement
Administration-Galveston Resident Office Task Force and the FBI Safe Streets Task Force.
Other Committed Costs
With the opening of the new public safety building, the City has added two additional
maintenance contracts—Motorola and Breath Alcohol Testing Technical Supervisors, Inc. (BAT
TS). The maintenance contract with Motorola is for the Live Scan (automated fingerprint
identification system). It has an annual fee of $4,475. As part of the City’s agreement with
Harris County to connect to their system, the City must maintain and pay all maintenance costs
relating to hardware and software. The maintenance contract with Breath Alcohol Testing
Technical Supervisors, Inc. is for the Intoxilyzer (breath alcohol testing machine). It has an
annual fee of $7,800. The City signed an agreement with BAT TS to perform services related to
the inspection, certification, calibration and operation of the Intoxilyzer instrument as required by
the Texas Department of Public Safety.

Arrests related to drug activity 184 334 384 400
Trend: The commitment to full staffing will assist in the reduction of violent and property crime
rates and contributes to the fulfillment of the city’s vision to maintain one of the lowest crime
rates in Texas. Recruitment activities, the personnel function and professional standards are
monitored to ensure alignment with organizational values. The Department is participating in a
regional drug task force to address drug and drug-related crime within the City and adjacent
communities. More recently, a partnership with the FBI Safe Streets Task Force was developed to
address large scale investigations including economic and fraud-related crime.
Goal 2 (linked to City Goal 5)
Continue to improve the safety of our streets and efficient movement of vehicles.
Objectives:
Continue to use traffic accident statistics to analyze hazardous intersections and roadways to
determine enforcement action.
Analyze statistical data gathered on types of traffic infractions issued and locations to direct
future enforcement actions and programs.

Trend: The most frequently identified traffic safety concerns are speed over the posted limits,
speeding trucks and risks to children playing. The department uses radar traffic enforcement, a
citizen radar loan program and a commercial vehicle roadside inspection program to address
traffic safety issues. Texas Department of Transportation grant funds may be available to
conduct concentrated traffic enforcement activities in locations that annually produce the highest
incidents of traffic accidents within the City.
Goal 3 (linked to City Goals 5 & 6)
Actively involve residents and the business community in crime prevention and promoting
community safety awareness.
Objectives:
Continue the effective use of volunteers to enhance service to the community.
Involve members of the public to aid the police department in its crime fighting efforts.
Record, disseminate and preserve all offense, accident and arrest reports generated the police
department.
Coordinate the recordkeeping archives of the police department and work with the city
secretary’s office in records management of police records so that information is provided to

Mission Statement
It is the mission of the Friendswood Volunteer Fire Department to:
x Provide efficient and effective emergency fire & rescue services
x Provide efficient and effective advanced emergency medical care
x Provide education in all areas of life safety including but not limited to fire prevention,
injury prevention, child safety & CPR training
To meet this mission the Friendswood Volunteer Fire Department shall:
x Provide its members with up to date equipment
x Provide its members with the necessary training in order to be able to provide professional
service in a safe and effective manner
x Provide significant monetary savings to the city and citizens of Friendswood through the
use of highly skilled and dedicated volunteers
We live by our Slogan of:
Neighbors Serving Neighbors
And we are happy to be:
Celebrating over 56 Years of Service
Current Operations
The Friendswood Volunteer Fire Department, Inc. (FVFD) is a 501c3 non-profit corporation that
was created in 1951 and is dedicated to the protection of life and property by providing fire
suppression, rescue, EMS services, hazardous material response, and public education on fire and
injury prevention to the citizens of Friendswood. The 104 dedicated volunteers of the FVFD
provide organization, administration, public education, and maintenance, training and volunteer
manpower. These volunteers are supplemented by a small staff of part-time paid personnel who
help provide services during the normal workdays. The City provides the Fire Department with
Fire and EMS vehicles and other required capital equipment, three fire stations, dispatch services
and an operating budget that provides the necessary funds for management and operation of the
Department. The City and the FVFD signed a contract for services which was effective beginning
October 1, 2004. Operations and management of the part-time crew and full time employees
successfully transitioned to the FVFD in October of 2004. All payroll processing and all Accounts
Payable functions also transitioned to the Department in October 2004. The FVFD will be
responsible for administering one full-time paid fire captain, one full time paramedic, one full time
clerk and one part-time clerk and a pool of part-time firefighters, paramedics, and emergency
medical technicians. This new contract also establishes performance standards for the services
we provide to the city.
The use of volunteers saves the City an estimated 5 million dollars ($5,000,000) annually in
salaries over what it would cost to provide a city of this size with a minimal level of services with
a full paid department. Approximately 50,000 man-hours are provided by volunteers performing
fire suppression, rescue, EMS services and public education to the citizens of Friendswood. This is
not taking into account the countless hours spent on call in town ready to respond to an
emergency.
114
The FVFD has two operational divisions, Fire and EMS Divisions. A third division, the
Administrative Division manages the administrative affairs of the department primarily related
to financial matters and payroll, personnel management, recruitment issues, and facilities
management. The Administrative Division is also responsible for public relations, which are
beneficial to the fund raising and public awareness efforts of the department.
The Fire Division consists of 50 members who provide emergency fire suppression services and
rescue services as well as related non-emergency functions such as public education of fire
prevention, personnel training and equipment maintenance. These volunteers respond from three
stations within the city. Fire service personnel participate in the “State Fireman’s & Fire Marshal’s
Association” and/or the “Texas Commission on Fire Protection” certification programs. The FVFD
also has contracts to provide fire and rescue service to portions of both un-incorporated Harris
and Galveston counties. The Fire Division has been very successful in acquiring several grants
this past year that will enhance the programs offered by the Division and improve firefighter
safety.
The EMS Division consists of 56 volunteers providing emergency medical care and transport to
the residents of the City. These members staff three Advanced Life Support ambulances and four
first responder vehicles as well as a supervisor’s vehicle. All EMS services are provided in
accordance with Texas Department of Health (TDH) requirements for emergency medical
providers. All personnel are certified through the TDH, which requires a minimum 160 hours
training for an EMT and up to 1,204 hours of training for a Paramedic, followed by required
continuing education. In addition to the training and emergency medical care, these volunteers
are also very active in providing equipment maintenance and preparedness as well as public
education on injury prevention and basic first aid. The EMS Division also has several unique and
award winning programs in place that are supported by this budget as well as grants and
donations. These programs include our Kid Care Program, the Children’s Immunization Program,
and the FVFD Safety Clown Troupe. The EMS Division was awarded the State of Texas’s top
honor being named the Outstanding Volunteer EMS Provider of the Year in 2001 in recognition of
the high standards of the program and services provided to the citizens of Friendswood. During
the EMS Conference in November of 2003, Lisa Camp, our EMS Chief was awarded the State of
Texas Outstanding EMS Administrators’ Award. During this past year Lisa Camp was selected as
a “Hometown Hero” and was asked to throw out the first pitch at a Houston Astros' game. The
Friendswood VFD EMS was also recognized by the Greater Houston EMS Council as the
Outstanding Public Education Provider for EMS in 2006/2007. Assistant Chief Kris Kern was
recognized as the Houston area’s “EMS Educator of the Year”.

Fire Marshal
Mission Statement
It is the mission of the Friendswood Fire Marshal’s Office and the Office of Emergency
Management to provide the highest quality services to the people who live, work and visit the
City of Friendswood.
Current Operations
The Fire Marshal manages two programs: The Fire Marshal’s Office and the Office of
Emergency Management.
The Fire Marshal’s Office (FMO) personnel consist of the Fire Marshal, 2 Assistant Fire
Marshals, 1 Administrative Secretary and a pool of 7 part time employees. The Fire Marshal’s
staff is on 24-hour call out, 7 days a week.
The Fire Marshal’s Office has the primary responsibility of responding to fires and
hazardous incidents within the City. All fires are investigated for cause and origin. The Fire
Marshal’s Office is responsible for the filing of appropriate criminal charges that may arise
from an investigation. The Fire Marshal and Assistant Fire Marshals are state certified arson
investigators and state certified peace officers.
Fire Prevention activities by the FMO include business inspections, review of new building
plans, and the design approval of fire alarm and sprinkler systems. In addition, inspections of
day care facilities, group homes, nursing homes and foster homes are conducted. Fire drills
are conducted at all of the schools. Fire Safety and Fire Prevention Programs are presented
year round to the public on request. The Fire Marshal’s Office coordinates the Fire Prevention
activities that are conducted at the schools during Fire Prevention Week each October. The
Fire Marshal and Assistant Fire Marshals are state certified Fire Inspectors.
The Fire Marshal, 2 Assistant Fire Marshals and a pool of 7 part time employees are funded
from this account.
The Office of Emergency Management is responsible for the Disaster Preparedness
Program of the City. The Fire Marshal is the Emergency Management Coordinator. The focus
of the Office of Emergency Management is on public education, training of city staff in
emergency operations, and maintaining the city’s warning systems. By using an all hazards
approach the Office of Emergency Management strives to improve the city’s public safety
response capabilities through planning efforts and coordination with Harris County and
Galveston County. The Fire Marshal’s Office maintains the Emergency Operations Center so
that it can be quickly activated to support any emergency or non-emergency operation. All
planning documents and emergency management plans are maintained to meet all state
requirements. The City of Friendswood Emergency Management Plan and Annexes meet the
“Advanced” emergency management requirements of the State of Texas.
The Administrative Secretary’s position (1 FTE) is funded from this account.

Highlights of the Budget
Fire Marshal’s Office and Emergency Management: This year’s budget includes an
additional $3,413. This increase is a result of an increase in funding from the Emergency
Management Performance Grant. Funding was increased from $42,665 to $46,078.
Departmental Goals And Measures
Goal 1 (linked to City Goals 1, 4, 5 & 6)
Promote Public Safety and the well being of the citizens, the local business community and
local institutions in the City of Friendswood.
Objective A:
Conduct thorough annual fire prevention inspections in all commercial businesses and
institutions within the city to reduce the number of fire code violations and life safety hazards.
Measure
FY05
Actual
FY06
Actual
FY07
Forecast
FY08
Proposed
Total annual fire prevention
inspections conducted 737 430 1200 1200
Trend: In previous years, staffing shortages in the inspection program have
resulted in less annual inspections than required. Currently, approximately 1,200
total inspections should be conducted to maintain the goal of inspecting each
business on an annual basis. Part time Inspectors approved in the 2007 budget
were hired in October and started on the job in November, 2006. Inspections have
increased and we are averaging 100 per month with a projected total of 1,200,
which is a substantial increase from the previous year.
Objective B:
Educate and inform the public in aspects of fire safety & prevention as well as
emergency preparedness through public education programs.

Proposed
Annual total programs
conducted. 26 43 25 25
Total number of people attending
programs.5,003 3,016 5,000 5,000
Trend: The total number of programs being conducted is declining, while the total
number of attendees is increasing. This trend has occurred as efforts have been
combined with other agencies to bring these programs to larger groups of people.
Objective C:
Keep abreast of the most current techniques in emergency management and their direct
application to individual city departments.
121
Fire Marshal
Trend: The Emergency Management Plan Annexes for the city are reviewed
annually to ensure appropriate application continuously meets individual city
department’s needs and capabilities. The annexes are updated as needed and / or
every five years to adjust appropriately to meet needs as they change. Feedback
and discussion from annual exercises and specific meetings has reaffirmed
appropriate application and content.
Goal 2 (linked to City Goals 1, 4, 5 & 6)
Facilitate a more productive partnership with developers, contractors and new businesses.
Objective A:
Provide continuing input for the Design Review Criteria Manual as well as attending DRC
meetings to address developer and contractor concerns during the conceptual stages of
development.
Measure

Actual

Actual
FY07
Forecast
FY08
Proposed
Annual total of DRC meetings
attended.56 44 60 65
Trend: The number of Design Review Criteria meetings continues to grow as the
Community Development Department and other departments that are involved
promote the program. The lengthy process of individual site plan reviews has been
greatly reduced with the introduction to group site plan reviews. Due to the close
nature of the two programs, group site plan reviews have made a seamless merger
with Design Review Criteria meetings and statistics for the two will now fall under
this objective.
An obvious distinction has been noted by the inspectors of the Fire Marshal’s Office
between developers and contractors who choose to go through the DRC process
and those who do not. Developers and contractors who go through the DRC
process tend to have a better grasp of City requirements and need less follow up
inspections to complete new construction and remodeling projects.
Objective B:
Continue a timely review of Commercial Plan Reviews and reduce the number of plans
required to be re-submitted by addressing applicable issues during group site plan reviews
and DRC meetings.

Trend: Each city department previously reviewed site plans and preliminary
plans individually, causing a time delay in coordination of comments and
duplication of work. Group site plan reviews and DRC meetings are improving
coordination and communication between departments and the design to
construction transition.

Fire Protection, Insurance Services Office (ISO), Governor’s Division of
Emergency Management, and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

Community Development
Mission Statement
The Department of Community Development strives to enhance the quality of life and contribute
to the overall development of the City by providing advanced planning and outstanding services
that improve mobility, drainage and utility systems for all citizens, businesses and visitors.
Current Operations
Current operations emphasize long-range planning practices and programs that cover a variety of
activities within the Department, such as:
x Provide Technical Support to the Planning & Zoning Commission, Construction
Board of Adjustment, and Zoning Board of Adjustment
x Provide Traffic Engineering Support
x Provide Floodplain Management Support
x Implement the Overall 10-year Capital Improvements Program (CIP)
x Implement Geographic Information System (GIS)
Highlights of the Budget
In 2005-2006, the Geographic Information System (GIS) was converted to an Internet-based
tool. GIS can now be used by not only Community Development staff, but all departments, and
citizens. The next phase of the GIS initiative will electronically tie Site Plans and Building Plans to
the corresponding parcel, helping to further streamline the development process. The budgeted
amount for this program is $30,000.
Departmental Goals and Measures
Goal 1 (linked to City Goals 1, 2, 3, 5 & 6)
A goal of the Community Development Department is to improve customer satisfaction. To
accomplish this goal, the Department has implemented a set of proactive performance measures
that establish accountability to the stakeholders that utilize different services of the Department.
Objective A:
The first objective is to issue residential permits within an average of 10 working days or less.
Further, the staff strives to achieve this objective at least 80% of the time.

Trends: The trend in residential permitting has been a declining workload with a higher
percentage of the permits being issued within the targeted time frame. On the commercial side,
it appears the workload is leveling off and the staff is focusing on improving the average
permitting time. Overall, this division has responded well to changes made over the last 5 years.
Goal 2 (linked to City Goals 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6)
Another goal of the Department is to implement the City’s Capital Improvement Program through
a timely deliberate process that focuses maximum effort on economy of design and value
engineering to produce projects that address multiple goals.
Objective A:
The first objective is to implement the projects in a timely fashion in order to bring the intended
benefits to the citizens as quickly as possible. This involves, in some cases, coordinating the
City’s own projects with those of independent developers. The table below identifies the type,
number and status of projects for the 2006-07 fiscal year.

Objective B:
The second objective is to implement all projects in the most cost effective manner possible. This
process begins in the engineering design phases and proceeds through construction and
commissioning of the finished infrastructure. The table below identifies the number and cost of
Change Orders issued for projects in each category for the 2006-2007 project list.

Public Works
Mission Statement
The Public Works Department makes every effort to improve the quality of life by providing
advance planning and outstanding services that improve drainage and utility systems for all
citizens, businesses and visitors.
Current Operations
Current operations emphasize long-range planning practices and programs that cover a variety of
activities within the Department, such as:
x Implement Concrete Street Repair and Asphalt Overlay Programs
x Implement Sign Replacement Program
x Implement Fire Hydrant Maintenance Program
x Implement Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Program
Highlights of the Budget
Street Maintenance Program
This is the sixth year of this program. This program is intended to be an on-going maintenance
project to repair and reconstruct existing concrete streets, sidewalks, curbs, sealing and asphalt
overlays. The budgeted amount this year for the program is $800,000.
Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Program
This program will begin its seventh year and is the City’s primary effort to reduce the amount of
infiltration and inflow (I&I) into the collection system. Through this program, a portion of the
entire wastewater collection system is cleaned and inspected by camera. Damaged sections are
located and a suitable method is selected for the repair. The budgeted amount for this program
is $300,000.
Departmental Goals and Measures
Goal 1 (linked to City Goal 6)

objective is to focus on recreational activities that impact both need and interest of the
community. Recreational programs include the Senior Activity Program, Summer Day Camp,

provision of quality informational, educational, and recreational materials. The library also
provides quality programs to encourage reading and literacy, including outreach programs to
area daycares and preschools.
The library also continues to cooperate with all area schools to ensure that the library
collection meets the curriculum needs of local students. Due to its close proximity to the local
junior high and an increase in reading assignments for junior high age children, the library is
trying to provide additional services for young adults.

Number of Items Added to Collection 7,462 7,531 7,500 7,500
Trend: As the population of the community increases, use of the library continues to
increase especially in circulation of library materials. Due to space constraints and the
increase in cost of library materials, the library is unable to greatly increase its collection
size. Essentially, the library must have 0% growth in collection size and may only add items
to replace items withdrawn from the collection due to being worn or outdated. The library
has begun to provide additional programming and cultural activities for adults. The library
now offers an emergent literacy program for parents and caregivers.
Goal 2 (linked to City Goals 1 & 6)

Trend: The Houston Area Library System, the Galveston County Library System, the Texas
Library Association and the Texas State Library offer various library training at minimal or no
cost, not including travel expenses. Library employees are encouraged to participate in these
trainings based on required job skills. Library employees are also encouraged to participate
in State and Local library professional organizations in order to keep abreast of “best
practices” in library service. In 2004/05 the library installed an updated library automation
system and library staff participated in specific training in all modules. The library board has
approved a five-year staffing plan in order to accomplish the goals in the library’s long-range
plan. The library will also investigate options to provide recognition for employee excellence.

Trend: The library is always looking for additional ways to publicize library services to the
citizens of Friendswood using various public relations and marketing tools. The library
publishes a monthly newsletter available in-house. The library has also added a link on the
library’s website to the newsletter. In addition, the library has utilized the City’s Group
Builder software to publicize and highlight various library programs, materials and activities.
The library will continue to provide information to area schools and educators through
participation in the new teacher’s luncheon, an open house for area educators and fliers
distributed to students and teachers. The library published an annual report for fiscal year
2005/06 to be distributed to the public.

Animal Control Building Police Department
COUNCIL GOAL: #6 Maintain High Level of Public Service
PLANNING DOCUMENT: None
TYPE: Facilities YEAR PLANNED: 2008
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: Not Yet Assigned
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Police Department has identified the requirement to construct a new humane facility
by 2009 to meet the growing needs of the community. The proposed project plan
consists of a phase-constructed build-out to eventually support a total of 8 Animal
Control Officers (ACO’s) by 2020 with the initial investment designed to house up to 6
ACO’s. The preliminary scope calls for a site of up to 1.5 acres to support building, a
large animal containment area, parking and required detention. The initial phase of
construction would consist of a 7,350 sf pre-engineered metal building frame and roof
with exterior CMU walls. This phase would center on approximately 2,500 sf of
administrative and public space and about 3,500 sq. ft of kennels, lab and storage. Phase
I of this facility would accommodate a minimum of 24 felines, 28 canines in separated
kennels and provide a separate area for the quarantine of injured / sick pets or bite cases.
A more detailed scope is expected to be identified during the preliminary study phase of
the project. The scope outlined above was based on currently identified needs of the
Sponsor Department.
JUSTIFICATION:
The current facility was constructed in approximately 1989 and is located in the
floodway. It was damaged during Tropical Storm Allison in 2001 and required extensive
repairs after that event. Additionally, the facility is inadequate to handle current
operational requirements of the City’s humane program with its current staffing level of
two ACO’s and one supervisor. The facility does not comply with current State
regulations requiring a separate area for quarantined animals.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
A Master Drainage Plan designated the Annalea Whitehall Kings Park subdivision as
Problem Areas No.14, 19, and 20. Phase I was completed in mid-2005 with the
construction of the major improvements to the Whitehall ditch outfall. Cost constraints
caused the remaining work to be split up by priority into four follow-on phases. Phase II
consists of the replacement of 18 inch storm sewer with 496 feet of 30 inch and the
addition of 103 feet of 18 inch along with one manhole and the replacement of a portion
of 8 inch sanitary sewer line all along MaryAnn between Castlelake and north of
Avondale.
JUSTIFICATION:
The Annalea – Kingspark - Whitehall area has been a persistent flooding problem area.
Initial phase work enlarged both main outfalls as a first step towards resolution. Follow –
on projects are aimed primarily at replacing undersized and old or dysfunctional tributary
systems. These projects are centered on the specifically identified problem areas within
the subdivision with the objective of reducing street ponding and threats to structural
flooding to tolerable levels.

SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: ST0017
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project would construct a four-lane concrete curb and gutter boulevard section from
the Friendswood/League City corporate limits to F.M. 2351. In addition, the project
includes the construction of an associated underground storm sewer system. The
thoroughfare would traverse through the West Ranch and Friendswood Lakes
developments on the east side of F.M. 528 and pass adjacent to the Wilderness Trails and
Windsong subdivisions on the west side. Ultimately, this roadway would connect
Pearland Parkway in Pearland with Brittany Bay Boulevard in League City.
JUSTIFICATION:
This project is a part of the short-range transportation plan for the region. Recently, the
City, with assistance from TXDOT funded the Preliminary Engineering and
Environmental Assessment (PE/EA) for the proposed route. Once the PE/EA is
completed, the project will be eligible for HGAC’s Transportation Improvement Program
(TIP). Under this program, the City will be responsible for providing 20% of the funding
for construction.
The project will provide an additional north/south corridor through the City, which will
help decrease the congestion along both F.M. 518 and Sunset Boulevard. The
construction of the Brittany Bay Corridor will also prepare the City for the future
development of this section of the City. In addition, the proposed storm sewer should
provide improved drainage in the area along the Brittany Bay Boulevard Corridor.

TYPE: Drainage YEAR PLANNED: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: DR0205
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project integrates TXDOT’s drainage work associated with its plans to widen
FM2351 and the City’s drainage solution for the subdivision. The project consists of the
purchase of property for a detention site, the installation of a detention pond and the
construction of a portion of TXDOT’s drainage system for its future expansion of
FM2351 consisting of approximately 615 LF of 6 x 4 concrete box culvert, a control
structure, approximately 5 Type A inlets with possible inclusion of box culverts under the
crossing at Tall Pines. TXDOT has agreed to a cost sharing on the project in the amount
of approximately $300,000.
JUSTIFICATION:
This area has been a persistent flooding problem with increasing frequency. The root of
the cause lies within the unincorporated areas north and west of the area outside of the
City’s limits. Uncontrolled development has resulted in major sheet flows of surface
water during severe events. There are currently nine residential structures that are
repetitive loss structures located within the subdivision. TXDOT’s plan to widen
FM2351, still some years off, might have provided a partial solution but that project is
not scheduled yet. By coordinating the City’s project with TXDOT’s drainage plan the
City can affect a solution now and cost share that with TXDOT.

PLANNING DOCUMENT: Munson – Kennedy Study
TYPE: Facilities YEAR PLANNED: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: FFS000
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Project programming was completed in mid-2005 for a mid-level facility that was
capable of possible future expansion. The program created a standardized sub-station
facility that could be built at any location and incorporated the ability to be expanded in
the future. This met the recommendations of the 2002 Munson-Kennedy study.
The current project consists of a sub-Station sized facility of approximately 6,650 sf
situated on approximately 2 acres, out of a total of 3.6, purchased on the northwest corner
of the intersection of Woodlawn and Heritage Lane. The sub-Station project contains
about 2,020 sf of living/ administrative/ workspace and approximately 4,625 sf of
apparatus and support space. Structure is planned as a pre-engineered metal building
frame and roof designed to current wind-load requirements of 120-mph with permanent
walls constructed from CMU/ brick veneer and temporary walls from metal panel or
composite materials. Site improvements include approximately 24 parking spaces along
the perimeters of the access and equipment driveways. The station contains two double-
loaded equipment bays, storage and a utility room. Inside is a day room, dispatch office,
small kitchen, locker-room and dorm room for three volunteers. Provisions have been
made to include emergency power for the station.
JUSTIFICATION:
The 2002 Munson-Kennedy study recommended improving Departmental response times
by constructing a fourth station in the northwestern portion of the City currently served
only by Station One and later construction a fifth station in the central southeastern area.
The current locations of the City’s three existing fire stations do not lend itself to
improved response times due to increased traffic levels on primary access routes. The
response times and distances from the existing Station One to the City’s north side
exceed the national standards for the level of population and building density in existence
now and response times are expected to continue to increase in the future. Continued
build out will further slow travel times from existing stations due to increased traffic
congestion and additional traffic control devices along normal response routes.

COUNCIL GOAL: Improve Drainage
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Master Drainage Plan
TYPE: Drainage YEAR PLANNED: 2008
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: Not Yet Assigned
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The first phase of the city’s Master Drainage Plan, completed in September 1993, and
identified problem areas in the city’s storm drainage system. This proposed project
addresses Problem Areas No.17 and 18, by replacing undersized storm sewer systems
located adjacent to Friendswood Drive in order to minimize street flooding during
extreme event. A more detailed analysis of these problem areas is planned in the 2006
update to the Master Drainage Plan, with specific recommendations being anticipated.
JUSTIFICATION:
The area along FM 518 between Edgewood (FM 2351) and Chigger Creek is
characterized as commercial development, with high levels of impervious cover,
translating to high rates of storm runoff. The main trunk storm sewer capacity of the F.M.
518 (Friendswood Drive) is drastically undersized and varies from 30 percent to 60
percent of the desired 5-year flood. Detention sites are not available and the street grade
is inadequate to handle the excess flows of a 100-year event.
The downtown area is currently anticipating revitalization efforts. The desire on the
City’s part is to address the increase in runoff associated with the new development in an
effort to help encourage this redevelopment.

Friendswood Link Road Community Development
COUNCIL GOAL: #5 Improve Transportation
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Major Thoroughfare Plan
TYPE: Thoroughfares PLANNED YEAR: 2010
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: ST0018
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Friendswood Link Road is the proposed extension of El Dorado Boulevard. The project
would provide another major thoroughfare to promote moving traffic between IH-45 and
F.M. 518. This project would upgrade approximately 3000 feet of an existing 2-lane,
asphalt roadway to a four lane, divided concrete curb and gutter roadway from the
northerly Corporate limits to F.M. 518. In addition, the project includes the addition of an
underground storm sewer system and the relocation of some existing sanitary and
waterline utilities.
JUSTIFICATION:
With the completion of the proposed El Dorado Boulevard extension between IH-45 and
Beamer Road by the City of Houston in August of 2005, improvement of this roadway
will provide an additional access point for commuters utilizing I-45 to enter and exit the
City of Friendswood. The result of this improvement would be to provide relief to traffic
along the F.M. 528 and F.M. 2351 corridors. In addition, the drainage system would be
improved to an underground storm sewer system to serve the new street.
The project is part of the regional transportation plan and qualifies for funding under
HGAC’s Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) now that the Preliminary
Engineering and Environmental Assessment are complete. As part of the TIP, the city
would be required to fund up to 20% of project cost. Harris County is currently working
to design and build the remaining portion between Beamer Road and the Friendswood
City Limits by 2009.

TYPE: Drainage PLANNED YEAR: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: DR0204
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project was originally identified in the 1993 Master Drainage Plan as Problem Areas
No.6 and 7. The proposed improvements include construction of 1,300 lf of 72”
aluminized metal pipe storm sewer outfall across Wilderness Trails from Londonderry to
Chigger Creek. The project will include the addition of two B-B Inlets, the acquisition of
approximately 30,000 SF of easement and the purchase of 3.75 Acft of detention volume
from the Galveston County Consolidated Drainage District. Additionally, improvements
are to be made along Greenbriar between Briarmeadow and the creek in the form of
installation of larger culverts. This portion of the work is planned to be installed as
routine maintenance to the roadside ditches are performed and includes upsized culverts
at nine driveway ditch crossings.
JUSTIFICATION:
Street flooding has occurred in the Wilderness Trails and Glenshannon Subdivisions
resulting from the addition of the Glenshannon drainage area to the existing Wilderness
Trails outfall. Street ponding depths exceed the maximum allowable as per the City’s
design criteria and have threatened homes with low slab elevations, allowing storm water
to enter some garages.
Street flooding along Greenbriar, Briarmeadow and Murphy is also at nuisance levels and
could threaten homes along Briarmeadow and Greenbriar. The existing ditches are
undersized due to restricted right of way.

SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: FLB001
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project provides for the expansion of Library area in order to meet the growing
needs of the community. The description is based on a March 2003 study performed to
identify the possible alternatives and to quantify those alternatives. The expansion
includes adding approximately 10,850 sf to the library on the perimeters of the existing
building: expanding and adding service area in the Reference Area, and Young Adult and
Juvenile areas, expanding the Audio/Visual area and expanding the front and reference
desks. Additionally the Community room would be expanded to provide a 200-250
person capacity. A portion of the existing parking lot would be consumed in this
expansion and additional parking would be provided by expanding the parking are to the
south and reciprocal agreements with the Friends Church.
The above project scope was developed in a programming study performed by an
architectural consultant and presented to the Library Board in March 2006. Staff has
confirmed this plan is still current.
JUSTIFICATION:
The expansion is in agreement with the Houston Area Library System’s
recommendations for facility requirements and is recommended by the Friendswood
Public Library Board. The Plan was submitted to City Council and approved on July 14,
2003.

Melody Lane Community Development
COUNCIL GOAL: Improve Transportation
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Major Thoroughfare Plan
TYPE: Thoroughfares PLANNED YEAR: 2008
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: ST0203
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Currently, the roadway exists from F.M. 2351 to northerly City of Friendswood City
limits and is approximately 6,600 feet long. It exists as a 2-lane asphalt road with an
average width of 24 feet and large open ditches located on each side of the right-of-way.
The Major Thoroughfare Plan (MTP) for the City of Friendswood identifies Melody Lane
as a minor collector. The ultimate cross-section proposed for this street is a 2-lane,
undivided concrete roadway (28-feet wide) with curb and gutter. The section of roadway
between F.M. 2351 and the Woodland Park Drive is proposed as a 40-foot wide, three-
lane concrete street with a continuous left turn lane. The purpose of this wider section
with turn lane is to accommodate the significant number of driveways along that stretch
of the roadway. In addition, the drainage ditches will be improved to underground storm
sewer system.
JUSTIFICATION:
In 2002, the City performed an inventory of existing asphalt roads throughout the City in
an effort to determine which of these roads, based upon their age, existing condition and
traffic loads and volumes and other factors would warrant conversion to concrete.
Melody Lane, based upon these criteria as well as the additional development along this
corridor, became a prime candidate for the conversion program. Additionally, the
increasing traffic volume that combined with the speed has created a safety issue. In
addition, the replacement of the open ditches with the associated storm sewer improves
the drainage of the area. Finally, the conversion of this street to concrete will reduce the
maintenance costs, the scope of maintenance activity, and the frequency of maintenance
on this highly traveled collector street.

Mission Estates Outfall Community Development
COUNCIL GOAL: #5 Improve Drainage
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Master Drainage Plan
TYPE: Drainage PLANNED YEAR: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: DR0206
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Master Drainage Plan identified this as Problem Area #9 in 1993 and is characterized
by street flooding during the 5-year storm or a larger event. The project calls for two
actions to resolve the problem. The first is to install 2 additional 54-inch RCP culverts at
restrictor structure located in the channel adjacent to Mission Estates. The second action
is to add two 60-inch culverts under the haul road to the sand pit. In addition, the top of
the haul road must be lowered, within the drainage channel just north of Mission Estates,
by 2-feet to allow run-off to over-top the road during events in excess of 5 year flows.
JUSTIFICATION:
The Mission Estates, section III, Somerset, and San Joaquin areas experience street
ponding in excess of allowable design during the larger storm events. The existing ditch
is impacted by up-stream flows from Carmel Village and can only convey the 5-year
discharge at bank full capacity as currently constructed. The proposed project will
increase the capacity of the channel and minimize any downstream flooding impacts.
Downstream improvements to this ditch as part of the Friendswood Lakes Development
enable the ditch to handle the additional flow.

COUNCIL GOAL: Improve Drainage
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Master Drainage Plan
TYPE: Drainage YEAR PLANNED: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: DR0200
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This area was originally identified in the 1993 Mater Drainage Plan as Problem Area #11
and was classified as the subdivision’s Main Outfall. The prioritization was changed
during the design for the overall project leaving this area as the #2 priority behind the
initial improvement areas. The project consists of the replacement, straightening and
over-sizing of the existing Corrugated Metal Pipe outfall (aka Area 4 in the original plan
set). The 72-inch outfall pipe is to be largely replaced with 84 inch RCP. A portion of
the line, from West Castle Harbour to the existing outside of the subdivision will be
duplicated through another existing easement providing increased capacity. The outfall
point at Chigger Creek will be improved with the addition of articulated block slope
protection. The project requires the acquisition of two small section of easement to
supplement existing right of way.
JUSTIFICATION:
The Sun Meadow Subdivision has several areas that have experienced flooding of homes during moderate and major storm
events. Some homes within the Windsong Subdivision also experience these problems. The initial phase of the project
corrected the most severe problems in the northeast corner of the subdivision. Cost constraints forced the project to be
compartmentalized and re-prioritized in order to address the remaining problem areas on an annual basis in order of their
relative priority within the subdivision. This secondary outfall provides substantial relief to areas upstream of the new
outfall established under the initial project and is critical to providing flood protection to downstream properties.

and was classified as the subdivision’s Main Outfall. The prioritization was changed
during the design for the overall project leaving this area as the #3 priority behind the
initial improvement and the re-construction of the secondary outfall. The project consists
of the replacement and over-sizing of the existing 24 inch and 30 inch storm sewer with
30 inch and the installation of 117 lf of 72 inch pipe along West Castle Harbour Drive
and serves as the collection manifold for the secondary outfall described in Phase II
work. This includes the installation of one major junction box and three junction boxes
with open throat inlets and two C-1 type curb inlets on Point Royal Drive. This work is
described in the original plan set as Area 5 and was re-prioritized as Phase III in
conjunction with the reconstruction of the secondary outfall after the initial phase of work
was completed in 2005.
JUSTIFICATION:
Working in conjunction with the Secondary outfall this area must be improved to channel
the greatly increased sheet flows into the improved secondary outfall. Installation of this
section completes the improvements to the northern section of the subdivision and
effectively lowers the street ponding in this area to acceptable levels by increasing the
outfall’s capacity.

COUNCIL GOAL: Improve Drainage
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Master Drainage Plan
TYPE: Drainage YEAR PLANNED: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Construction PROJECT NUMBER: DR0200
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This area is part of the original overall Sun Meadow drainage project and consists of
Area 11 within that plan set. It has been prioritized as Phase IV or the third priority
behind the initial improvements because this area suffers from access denial level street
flooding at the entrance of the subdivision. The project is designed to lower street
ponding to acceptable levels in the main entrance area of Sun Meadow Boulevard and
consists of removing existing drainage pipe of all sizes and installing 1331 LF of 36 inch
RCP and 400 LF of 30 inch RCP, 3 large manholes structures, 3 large junctions boxes,
several curb inlets and a new outfall structure off of St Cloud. The project reaches from
Sun Meadow Boulevard around Dorado and down St Cloud to outfall into Chigger Creek.
This work is described in the original plan set as Area 11 and was re-prioritized as Phase
IV after cost constraints in the initial project forced a phased approach to the overall
project.
JUSTIFICATION:
The City’s Design Criteria Manual allows street flooding up to a maximum of 18 inches
during 100-year events. This main entrance to the Subdivision experiences flooding in
excess of that amount and that ponding remains on location for long periods afterward
due to sheet flows. This situation effectively prohibits movement into or out of the
subdivision during severe events. Installation of this section effectively lowers the street
ponding in this area to acceptable levels by increasing the storm sewer capacity within
this isolated area and provides a dedicated outfall for the area.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This area is part of the original overall Sun Meadow drainage project and consists of
Area 9 within that plan set. It has been prioritized as Phase V or the fourth priority
behind the initial improvements because this area suffers from excessive street flooding
and threatens structural flooding along Castle Harbour due to the sheet flow from the
surrounding area and the absence of adequate inlets and storm sewer capacity. The
project is designed to lower street ponding to acceptable levels and incorporate sheet
flows within a new outfall structure across the golf course and into Chigger Creek. The
project consists of installing 865 LF of 36 inch RCP, including the auger construction of
100 feet of that, 5 large manholes structures, 1 large inlet and a new outfall structure
behind the golf course. The project includes the acquisition of two separate easements.
This work is described in the original plan set as Area 9 and was re-prioritized as Phase V
after cost constraints in the initial project forced a phased approach to the overall project.
JUSTIFICATION:
The City’s Design Criteria Manual allows street flooding up to a maximum of 18 inches
during 100-year events. This drainage is within the Subdivision experiences flooding in
excess of that amount during the five year event due to the lack of a dedicated outfall for
the area involved. This situation effectively inhibits movement through the subdivision
during severe events and threatens structures. Installation of this new outfall effectively
lowers the street ponding in this area to acceptable levels by increasing the storm sewer
outfall capacity within this area and provides a dedicated outfall for the area.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
In 2004, the Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) prepared a comprehensive
Drainage Plan for the F.M. 2351 corridor between F.M. 518 and the proposed Brittany
Bay Boulevard. The purposes of the study was identify critical drainage issues that
would affect the widening of the roadway to 5 lanes and then propose solutions that could
be addressed by the various agencies affected by the project. Three problem areas were
identified. This project addresses problem area 2 and is joint project between the City,
Galveston Consolidated Drainage District and TXDOT. The project calls for the
construction of outfall (box culvert or ditch) located between Garden Street and Sunset
Drive. The outfall facility would extend from F.M. 2351 all the way to Cowards Creek,
for a distance of 3300 feet.
JUSTIFICATION:
The proposed outfall would address several drainage areas along the F.M 2351 corridor
that currently do not have outfall drainage. The benefits would be realized on both sides
of F.M. 2351, from Stadium Drive to Oak Drive. In addition, the proposed project would

42 Inch Water Main Replacement Public Works
COUNCIL GOAL: #2 Improve Infrastructure
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Ground Water Reduction Plan
TYPE: Utility YEAR PLANNED: 2010
SUB-TYPE: Purchase PROJECT NUMBER: N/A
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This is a co-participation project with the City of Houston and other participants in the
movement and upgrade of the main north/ south surface water transmission pipeline from
the Southeast Water Purification Plant along State Highway 3.
Texas Department of Transportation plans to widen State Highway 3 and it will be
necessary to remove the existing pipeline from State right-of-way in preparation for that
project. This presents an opportunity to up-size this transmission line when it is removed
from the easement. Costs of replacements, including the cost of real estate and easement
are the responsibility of the Participants utilizing the transmission line. The widening and
removal/construction project will be managed by the City of Houston and Participant’s
cost share will be based on a pro-rata use according to their distribution allocation.
Friendswood’s distribution allocation from this line is balanced by its distribution
allocation from the 36-inch line on Beamer.
Replacement and movement of the 42-inch line to a location outside of the Highway 3
ROW is planned for completion by 2010 in order for TxDOT’s project to proceed on
schedule.
JUSTIFICATION:
The City of Friendswood is a participant in the operation and maintenance of the 42 inch
Water Line. That pro-rata participation is reduced by its participation in the Beamer
Road 36 inch transmission line. The City is dependent on these as the source of surface
water required to meet the Ground Water Reduction Plan as established in 2001 and to
meet growing population requirements through build-out. As such costs for replacement
of the line are shared out on an allocation pro-rata basis.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This is the purchase of surface water capacity from the City of Houston Southeast Water
Purification Plant. The 2001 Ground Water Reduction Plan required the City to reduce
its ground water consumption to 20% of the total water demand and predicted a daily
consumption of 16.8 MGD at build–out. Future demand will require approximately 12
MGD be made up by purchase agreements with the City of Houston, Southwest Water
Purification Plant.
Costs for water are based on operational and improvement costs to the Plant including
those necessary to increase its Production Capacity to 200 MGD and the Plant’s Pumping
Capacity to 255 MGD. Planning for improvements to increase the reliable capacity is
underway and includes certain upgrades the Plant’s existing facilities that will benefit the
Participants.
JUSTIFICATION:
The 2001 Ground Water Reduction Plan required the City to reduce its dependency on its
ground water from 38% of its total consumption to just 20%. At the same time growth
projections indicate the demand at build-out will total approximately 16.8 MGD, This
requires that the approximate 11.8 MGD be made up through purchases of surface water.

SUB-TYPE: Water Improvements PROJECT NUMBER: UW0505
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project consists of the construction of a 14-inch water line along Bay Area
Boulevard from the Autumn Creek Development to the Exxon Pipeline Right of Way and
then turning south to cross Clear Creek as a 12 inch main and tying in Rancho Drive.
This new main will become the initial phase of a loop around the east end of the City,
eventually crossing FM 518 and providing a service loop to the developments along the
east and south services areas of town. The scope of this project was decreased from the
project proposed in the 2003 CIP by developer activities in the area reducing the amount
of line to be laid to approximately 960 feet open cut 14 inch line, approximately 600 feet
of 12 inch open cut line, and 2,000 feet of directional drill construction. The main will be
completed to FM 518 by the West Ranch Developer by way of over-sizing their
distribution system and the tie-in to Rancho Drive will also be handled through that
mechanism.
JUSTIFICATION:
With the construction of the second surface water take point and the purchase of
additional capacity from the City of Houston, this system improvement is required to
push water around to the southern portion of Friendswood. Significant residential
development is anticipated on that side that would increase the demand for water in that
portion of the City. The scope of the original project has been reduced by working with
the developer for areas both north of FM 518.

along the north side of FM 2351 and consists of approximately 4,250 feet of 12 inch
gravity sewer, a large lift station (ultimate capacity of 1 MGD) located near the Frankie
Carter Park and an 8 inch force main towards the southwest crossing beneath FM 2351 at
a point near Wandering Trail and then to the Wedgewood Lift Station #17. This service
plan provides sewer initially to 136 acres and ultimately to 377 acres.
JUSTIFICATION:
This area has been zoned an “Industrial District.” Efforts to attract light industry and
office warehouse business and development into this area are largely dependent on
availability of City service infrastructure. Water service capabilities, with an ultimate
capacity of 12 million gallons per day, have been constructed within this area.
Construction of sewer capabilities would begin to provide the necessary City services
required for future development of the area and would lay the groundwork necessary to
attract long-term investors. Phase One of this project is envisioned to meet the needs of
initial development along FM2351 east to Beamer Rd and to be expandable, through
Phases Two and Three, to meet requirements of future development of the area as it
grows.

Deepwood Force Main Public Works
COUNCIL GOAL: #2 Improve Infrastructure
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Wastewater Service Plan South of FM528
TYPE: Utility YEAR PLANNED: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Sanitary Sewer Improvements PROJECT NUMBER: US0007
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project replaces the primary wastewater discharge route from the 24 and 27 inch
Gravity Main Service areas to Blackhawk Wastewater Treatment Plant and eliminates the
need to re-habilitate the existing 18 inch force main. Section 1 consists of approximately
6,000 feet of 28 inch HDPE pipe directionally drilled along a route across the Whitcomb
property development from the Forest Bend Lift Station (#22) to a location along Bay
Area Boulevard from where the construction would become 700 feet of open cut to the
Wastewater Treatment Plant. Section 2 of this line runs from the new Deepwood Lift
Station to Forest Bend Lift Station as 22 inch HDPE and would also be installed by
directional drill method. The project includes 15 easements along this route with an
estimated valued of approximately $84,000.
JUSTIFICATION:
Development occurring in the northern and central portions of Friendswood is placing a
larger demand on the Deepwood Lift Station. Currently, Forest Bend discharges to the
Deepwood Lift station and is then relayed back to the Blackhawk Treatment Facility via
the existing 18-inch force main. This existing force main is approximately 25 years old
and has been the source of a number of discharges resulting from breaks signaling that it
is at the end of its useful lifespan. This project provides for the ultimate build-out
pumping capacity for the Deepwood Lift Station and saves the City the expense of
rehabilitating the old 18-inch force main.

SUB-TYPE: Sanitary Sewer Improvements PROJECT NUMBER: US0008
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project consists of the expansion of the Deepwood Lift Station to meet the City’s
ultimate build-out demands for wastewater discharge pumping to the Blackhawk
Wastewater Treatment Plant. The expansion will take place at its present location in the
Public Works maintenance facility site and requires no additional land acquisition. The
new Lift Station will have a capacity of 9.23 MGD (or 6400 GPM) and contain a 30-foot
diameter 30-foot deep wet well with six submersible pumps, four of which are rated at
1,500 GPM and two rated at 5,800 GPM for a total redundant capacity in order to comply
with TCEQ requirements. In addition a number of site improvements are included
including revisions to fencing, electrical and site paving. The old lift station, having
reached the end of its useful life span, will be demolished.
JUSTIFICATION:
Development occurring in the northern and central portions of Friendswood utilizing the
24 and 27-inch gravity mains is placing an increased demand on the Deepwood Lift
Station pumping capacity. The existing lift station has reached the end of its useful life
and requires replacement. This project integrates future requirements with current
demands to replace the existing lift station and makes use of the opportunity to provide
for future build-out requirements and integrates these into the new force main project.

Raw Water System Buy-In Public Works
COUNCIL GOAL: #2 Improve Infrastructure
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Ground Water Reduction Plan
TYPE: Utility YEAR PLANNED: 2010
SUB-TYPE: Purchase PROJECT NUMBER: UW0030
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This is a purchase of raw water capacity from the City of Houston through their
centralization of the Raw Water feed system to the Southeast Water Purification Plant.
The City of Houston has for years operated and maintained their raw water collection and
distribution system used for providing the water supply to treatment facilities
individually. A decision was taken recently to share the costs of operations, maintenance
and improvements out among the municipal customer-participants currently acting as co-
owners in the treatment and transmission facilities.
In order for Houston to continue supplying raw water in future and prevent the sole
burden of the cost being shared only by Houston all future co-participant desire more
capacity are to share the cost. In order to do this fairly, all raw water supplies are group to
create a raw water system with a 240 MGD capacity. Friendswood future purchase (6
MGD) in the upcoming expansion will result in an estimated lump sum payment of $3.5
million dollars due to Houston in 2007-2008.
JUSTIFICATION:
This is a component of the Surface Water supply-treatment-& distribution system that the
City has bought into as an outgrowth of the 2001 Ground Water Reduction Plan. The
City of Houston is sharing out the cost of this system with its co-participants.

South Friendswood Force Main Diversion Public Works
COUNCIL GOAL: #2 Improve Infrastructure
PLANNING DOCUMENT: None
TYPE: Utility YEAR PLANNED: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Lift Station Improvements PROJECT NUMBER: US0024
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project was originally envisioned as a component of the Sun Meadow Lift Station
Replacement project. The preliminary engineering report recommended diverting flow
contributions from South Friendswood away from the Sun Meadow Lift Station and
directly to the San Joaquin Lift Station (#20). This project consists of the work to
construct the diversion force main from a point along the existing Windsor Estates force
main to San Joaquin Lift Station.
Current loads on the existing force main have reached capacity. Therefore, it will also be
necessary to construct a new force main from this lift station to the existing 27” sewer
trunk line at the end of San Joaquin Blvd. This new force main will be approximately
5,000 feet long and 12” in diameter. The flow from Windsor Estates lift station will then
be diverted to San Joaquin lift station via the existing 8” force main. The flow diversion
will require some additional pumping and electrical upgrades to this station.
JUSTIFICATION:
The existing lift station at Sun Meadows is in need of replacement. The pumps and
control system are at the end of their practical usefulness. There is no access drive to this
site. Current estimates indicate this system will be severely taxed and incapable of
handling even normal flow within the next few years. In addition, the expected
development of the surrounding area will be better served by construction of one modern
lift station that is both accessible and efficient. Additionally, new development will
participate in the cost of the project. This project may require the acquisition of some
land for the lift station site and an easement for the force main.

SUB-TYPE: Lift Station Improvements PROJECT NUMBER: US0023
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project originally envisioned the replacement of the existing lift station and
incorporated the construction of a new force main from this site to the San Joaquin Lift
Station (#20). However, the PER indicated that the existing force main would be large
enough to handle the wastewater flows from the existing and future development within
the greater Sun Meadows area if flow contributions from South Friendswood were
redirected via another route. (see South Friendswood Force Main Diversion). The re-
defined project now consists of the construction of a new larger lift station capable of
handling 1.39 MGD peak flows. This station will be location close to the existing lift
station that will be demolished upon de-commissioning. The proposed lift station will
consisting of a 12 foot diameter wetwell containing two 4 inch pumps and one 6 inch
pump, with a second 6 inch pump required to achieve the full 965 GPM and a firm
pumping capacity of 520 GPM. The location site is expected to be dedicated to the City.
JUSTIFICATION:
The existing lift station at Sun Meadows has reached the end of its useful life span and is
in need of replacement. The pumps and control system are at the end of their practical
usefulness. There is no access drive to this site making maintenance access difficult.
Current estimates indicate this system will be severely taxed and incapable of handling
even normal combined flows within the next few years. In addition, the expected
development of the surrounding area will be better served by construction of one modern
lift station that is both accessible and efficient. Additionally, new development will
participate in the cost of the project through impact fees and possibly contributing the
fourth and final required pump.

COUNCIL GOAL: #2 Improve Infrastructure
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Evaluation of Water Distribution Study
TYPE: Utility YEAR PLANNED: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Water Distribution Improvements PROJECT NUMBER: UW0037
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project consists of the extension of the existing 16 inch water transmission line from
its current terminus at the corner of Shadowbend and Sunset to Water Well #4 with the
intent to eventually tie in to the 12 inch main running along the west side of FM528.
This project will also tie into the 12 inch feeder line to Water Well #5. The project will
take full advantage of existing easements and road right of ways in order to minimize
additional land acquisitions. Final termination into the 12 inch main on FM528 may
utilize developer co-participation agreements to oversize portions of development
infrastructure along the planned route.
The work consists of 14,000 LF of 16 inch C-900 auger constructed in densely populated
areas and open cut installed in the sparsely populated areas, approximately 15 isolation
vales, two 1,000 foot creek crossings by directional drill installation and three tie-ins.
JUSTIFICATION:
Because the existing 12 inch main along FM528 in not looped water pressure in the
South Friendswood service area remains low. With the construction of the Second
Elevated Storage Tank, the first phase of improvements to the service area was begun.
Development pressures in this area are growing and without the completion of this loop
low water pressure and reliability will continue to plague the area and inhibit further
development.

COUNCIL GOAL: #2 Improve Infrastructure
PLANNING DOCUMENT: Evaluation of Water Distribution Study
TYPE: Utility YEAR PLANNED: 2007
SUB-TYPE: Water Distribution Improvements PROJECT NUMBER: UW0012
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project consists of the replacement of aging infrastructure within the Wedgewood
Subdivision. A section of the main along the south side of Blackhawk between
Penneystone Way and Shady Oaks has required numerous repairs during summer months
and peak water usage. The project will replace approximately 1,500 feet of 12 cast iron
water main with C-900 pipe and ductile fittings. The new main will be installed by open
cut means and require pavement replacements at crossovers. The new line will be
installed down the centerline of the median due to crowded ROW conditions. The work
will include three main branch line tie-ins, approximately 200 feet of 8-inch augured
installation and approximately 30 residential service lines requiring boring from the
median to the curbside meter location.
JUSTIFICATION:
This section of the water main has a long history of breaks during the peak usage periods
of the summer months. This is due, in part, to the materials the line was originally
constructed from prior to the area’s incorporation into the City limits. Public Works has
performed repairs on this section of the line on an almost continuous basis over the last
two summers. Replacing this section will shore up the distribution system within that
subdivision and reduce the level of trouble calls and repairs.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This rehabilitation will include the replacement of control room, chemical room,
conversion of pumps, and ground storage tank as necessary. Extensive modifications or
replacement to the elevated storage tank will be necessary. The elevated tank either
should be raised and rebuilt or a new tank constructed. Final recommendations will come
from the PER. Replace all valves and piping as necessary. The existing cyclone fence
will be replaced with 8 feet cedar wood. The existing ground storage tank is made of steel
with a capacity of 210,000 gallons. The ground storage tank should be replaced with a
500,000-gallon capacity unit. The control room is in need of modification to eliminate
water damage due to rainfall intrusion.
JUSTIFICATION:
This site contains the one million gallon elevated storage tank. Presently, the existing
elevated tank is inefficient in operation due to its relatively low height. Replacement with
a taller tank is one option to be considered. The existing ground storage tank leaks from
the bottom plates and requires extensive repairs. The ground storage tank is 32 years old
and is in need of replacement, possibly with a new 500,000-gallon unit. The existing
control room facility is extremely small and floods easily. Existing controls are aging to
the point of needing total replacement. Correcting this will require modification of this
building and the surrounding area. The vertical turbine pumps should also be replaced
within this project with horizontal units to improve operation efficiency.

piping as necessary. The existing cyclone fence will be replaced with 8 feet cedar wood.
The existing tanks are made of galvanized steel with a capacity of 210,000 gallons and
63,000 respectably and may require replacement with one half-million gallon tank. Final
recommendation to come out of PER. Recondition existing generator set.
JUSTIFICATION:
This well site is in need of a new control room. The existing room is too small for safety
when performing electrical repair work and no longer meets NEC Codes. The existing
switchgear is at the end of its usable life. The room also floods when there is any rainfall.
A new control room/chemical room will eliminate this situation. A replacement of the
existing vertical turbine pumps with horizontal units would provide a more efficient
operation. The ground storage tanks should be replaced as necessary with a half million
gallon ground storage as dictated by the last ground storage tank inspection. At this time
the replacement of all needed piping and accessories should be done. The existing
automatic transfer switch at the site was hit by lightening and partially destroyed. A new
switch would enable this site to automatically transfer power when needed.
Reconditioning the existing generator set including increasing the diesel tank capacity
would make this emergency power system more reliable.

Charter Budget Provisions
Section 8.03 Annual Budget
(A) Content: The budget shall provide a complete financial plan of all city funds and
activities and, except as required by law or this Charter, shall be in such form as the manager
deems desirable or the council may require. A budget message explaining the budget both in
fiscal terms and in terms of the work programs shall be submitted with the budget. It shall
outline the proposed financial policies of the city for the ensuing fiscal year, describe the
important features of the budget, indicate any major changes from the current year in financial
policies, expenditures, and revenues, with reasons for such changes. It shall also summarize the
city’s debt position and include such other material as the manager deems desirable. The budget
shall begin with a clear general summary of its contents; shall show in detail all estimated
income, the proposed property tax levy, and all proposed expenditures, for the ensuring fiscal
year including debt service, and an itemized estimate of the expense of conducting each
department of the city. The proposed budget expenditures shall not exceed the total of estimated
income. The budget shall be so arranged as to show comparative figures for actual and estimated
income and expenditures of the current fiscal year and actual income and expenditures of the
preceding fiscal year, compared to the estimate for the budgeted year. It shall include in
separate sections:
(1) Tax levies, rates, and collections for the proceeding five years.
(2) The amount required for interest on the city’s debts, for sinking fund and for
maturing serial bonds.
(3) The total amount of outstanding city debts, with a schedule of maturities on bond
issues.
(4) Anticipated net surplus or deficit for the ensuing fiscal year of each utility owned or
operated by the city and the proposed method of its disposition, subsidiary budgets for each
such utility giving detailed income and expenditure information shall be attached as appendices
to the budget.
(5) A capital program, which may be revised and extended each year to indicate capital
improvements pending or in process of construction or acquisition, and shall include the following
items which shall be attached as appendices to the budget:
(a) A summary of proposed programs;
(b) A list of all capital improvements which are proposed to be undertaken during
five fiscal years next ensuing, with appropriate supporting information as to the necessity for
such improvements;
(c) Cost estimates, method of financing and recommended time schedules for
each such improvement; and
(d) The estimated annual cost of operating and maintaining the facilities to bed
constructed or acquired.
(6) Such other information as may be required by the council.
(b) Submission: On or before the first day of August of each year, the manager
289
Charter Budget Provisions
shall submit to the council a proposed budget and an accompanying message. The council shall
review the proposed budget and revise as deemed appropriate prior to general circulation for
public hearing.
(c) Public notice and hearing: The council shall post in the city hall and publish in the
official newspaper a general summary of their (its) proposed budget and a notice stating:
(1) The times and places where copies of the message and budget are available for
inspection by the public; and
(2) The time and place, not less than ten nor more than 30 days after such publication,
for a public hearing on the budget.
(d) Amendment before adoption: After the public hearing, the council may adopt the
budget with or without amendment. In amending the budget, it may add or increase programs or
amounts and may delete or decrease any programs or amounts, except expenditures required by
law or for debt services or for estimated cash deficit, provided that no amendment to the budget
shall increase the authorized expenditures to an amount greater than the total of estimated
income plus funds available form prior years.
(e) Adoption: The council shall adopt its annual budget by ordinance, on one reading,
by the 15th day of September or as soon thereafter as practical. If the council fails to adopt an
annual budget before the start of the fiscal year to which it applies, appropriations of the last
budget adopted shall be considered as adopted for the current fiscal year on a month to month,
pro rata basis, until the annual budget is adopted. Adoption of the budget shall require an
affirmative vote of at least a majority of all members of the council. Adoption of the budget shall
constitute appropriations of the amounts specified therein as expenditures from the funds
indicated.

Financial Management Policy
292
Financial Management Policy
Introduction. The City of Friendswood assumes an important responsibility to its citizens and
customers to carefully account for public funds, to manage City finances wisely and to plan for the
adequate funding of services desired by the public.
The main goal of this Policy is to help the City achieve a long-term, stable and positive, financial
condition. The City’s financial management, as directed by this Policy, is based on the foundation
of integrity, prudent stewardship, planning, accountability and full disclosure.
The purpose of the Policy is to provide guidance for planning and directing the City’s daily
financial affairs. This Policy provides a framework in pursuit of the following objectives.
Financial Objectives
Revenues
Design and administer a revenue system that will assure a reliable, equitable and sufficient
revenue stream to support desired City services.
Expenditures
Identify priority services, establish and define appropriate service levels and administer
the expenditure of available resources to assure fiscal stability and the effective and
efficient delivery of these services.
Fund Balance/Retained Earnings
Maintain the fund balance and retained earnings of the various operating funds at levels
sufficient to protect the City’s credit worthiness, as well as its financial position, during
times of emergency.
Capital Expenditures and Improvements
Annually review and monitor the condition of the City’s capital equipment and
infrastructure, setting priorities for its replacement and renovation based on needs,
funding alternatives and availability of resources.
Debt Management
Establish guidelines for debt financing that will provide needed capital equipment and
infrastructure improvements, while minimizing the impact of debt payments on current
and future revenues.
Investments
Invest the City’s operating cash to ensure its safety, provide necessary liquidity and
maximize yield. Return on investment is of least importance compared to the safety and
liquidity objectives.
Intergovernmental Relations
Coordinate efforts with other governmental agencies to achieve common policy objectives,
share the cost of providing governmental services on an equitable basis and support
appropriate favorable legislation at the state and federal levels.
Grants
Aggressively investigate, pursue and effectively administer federal, state and foundation
grants-in-aid, which address the City’s current priorities and policy objectives.
293
Financial Management Policy
Economic Development
Initiate, encourage and participate in economic development efforts to create job
opportunities and strengthen the local economy and tax base.
Fiscal Monitoring
Analyze financial data and prepare reports that reflect the City’s financial performance and
economic condition.
Accounting, Auditing and Financial Reporting
Comply with prevailing federal, state and local statutes and regulations. Conform to
generally accepted accounting principles as promulgated by the Governmental Accounting
Standards Board (GASB), American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and
the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA).
Internal Control
Maintain an environment to provide management with reasonable assurance that assets
are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition.
Risk Management
Prevent and/or reduce financial impact to the City of claims and losses through prevention
and transfer of liability.
Budget
Develop and maintain a balanced budget, which presents a clear understanding of goals,
service levels and performance standards. The document shall, to the extent possible, be
“user-friendly” for citizens.
I. Revenues
The City shall use the following guidelines to design and administer a revenue system that will
assure a reliable, equitable and sufficient revenue stream to support desired City services.
Balance and Diversification in Revenue Sources
The City shall strive to maintain a balanced and diversified revenue system to protect the
City from fluctuations in any one source due to changes in economic conditions, which
adversely impact that source.
User Fees
For services that benefit specific users, where possible, the City shall establish and collect
fees to recover the full direct and indirect cost of those services. City staff shall review
user fees on a regular basis to calculate their full cost recovery levels, to compare them to
the current fee structure and to recommend adjustments where necessary.
Property Tax Revenues/Tax Rate
The City shall endeavor to reduce its reliance on property tax revenues by revenue
diversification, implementation and continued use of user fees and economic development.
The City shall also strive to stabilize its tax rate and minimize tax rate increases.
Utility/Enterprise Funds User Fees
Utility rates and enterprise funds user fees shall be set at levels sufficient to cover
operating expenditures, meet debt obligations, provide additional funding for capital
294
Financial Management Policy
improvements and provide adequate levels of working capital. The City shall seek to
eliminate all forms of subsidization to utility/enterprise funds from the General Fund.
Administrative Services Charges
The City shall prepare a cost allocation plan annually to determine the administrative
services charges due the General Fund from enterprise funds for overhead and staff
support. Where appropriate, the enterprise funds shall pay the General Fund for direct
services rendered.
Revenue Estimates for Budgeting
In order to maintain a stable level of services, the City shall use a conservative, objective
and analytical approach when preparing revenue estimates. The process shall include
analysis of probable economic changes and their impacts on revenues, historical collection
rates and trends in revenues. This approach should reduce the likelihood of actual
revenues falling short of budget estimates during the year, which otherwise could result in
mid-year service reductions.
Revenue Collection and Administration
The City shall maintain high collection rates for all revenues by keeping the revenue
system as simple as possible to facilitate payment. In addition, since a revenue source
should exceed the cost of producing it, the City shall strive to control and reduce
administrative costs. The City shall pursue to the full extent allowed by state law all
delinquent taxpayers and others overdue in payments to the City.
II. Expenditures
The City shall use the following guidelines to identify necessary services, establish appropriate
service levels and administer the expenditure of available resources to assure fiscal stability and
the effective and efficient delivery of services.
Current Funding Basis
The City shall operate on a current funding basis. Expenditures shall be budgeted and
controlled so as not to exceed current revenues.
Avoidance of Operating Deficits
The City shall take immediate corrective action, if at any time during the fiscal year,
expenditure and revenue estimates are such that an operating deficit is projected at year-
end.
Maintenance of Capital Assets
Within the resources available each fiscal year, the City shall maintain capital assets and
infrastructure at a sufficient level to protect the City’s investment, to minimize future
replacement and maintenance costs and to continue acceptable service levels.
Periodic Program Reviews
Periodic program review for efficiency and effectiveness shall be performed. Programs not
meeting efficiency or effectiveness objectives shall be brought up to required standards, or
be subject to reduction or elimination. The City shall explore and develop to the extent
possible, service trends and definitions in an effort to establish a “reward/profit sharing”
system.
295
Financial Management Policy
Purchasing
The City shall make every effort to maximize any discounts offered by creditors/vendors.
Vendors with balances due the City will have payments due the vendor offset against the
amount due the City. The City will follow state law and the City of Friendswood Purchasing
Manual concerning formal bidding procedures and approval by the City Council. For
purchases where competitive bidding is not required, the City shall obtain the most
favorable terms and pricing possible. Every effort will be made to include minority
business enterprises in the bidding process.
The City Manager, or his designee, shall have the authority to approve and sign contracts
and/or purchases for budgeted goods or services that do not exceed the state law bid
limitation of $25,000. Contracts or purchases for items in excess of the state law bid limit
shall be placed on a Council agenda for action authorizing the Mayor, or his designee’s,
signature.
III. Fund Balance/Retained Earnings
The City shall use the following guidelines to maintain the fund balance and retained earnings of
the various operating funds at levels sufficient to protect the City's creditworthiness as well as its
financial position from unforeseeable emergencies.
General Fund Undesignated Fund Balance
The City shall strive to maintain the General Fund undesignated fund balance at a
minimum of 90 days of current year budgeted expenditures.
Any undesignated funds after the fiscal year-end audit will be allowed to accumulate to
build this 90-day reserve.
After the General Fund has gathered sufficient resources, additional undesignated funds
will be allowed to accumulate in a fund designated for future General Fund capital
improvements.
Retained Earnings of Other Operating Funds
In other operating funds, the City shall strive to maintain a positive retained earnings
position to provide sufficient reserves for emergencies and revenue shortfalls. The
minimum working capital in the Water and Sewer Fund shall be 90 days of current year
budgeted expenditures.
Any undesignated funds after the fiscal year-end audit will be allowed to accumulate to
build this 90-day reserve.
After these funds have gathered sufficient resources, additional undesignated funds will be
allowed to accumulate in a fund designated for future utility/operating fund capital
improvements.
Use of Fund Balance/Retained Earnings
Fund Balance/Retained Earnings may be used in one or a combination of the following
ways:
o Emergencies,
o One-time expenditures that do not increase recurring operating costs;
o Major capital purchases; and
o Start-up expenditures for new programs undertaken at mid-year, provided such
action is considered in the context of multiyear projections of program revenues
and expenditures.
296
Financial Management Policy
Should such use reduce the balance below the appropriate level set as the objective for
that fund, the City shall take action necessary to restore the unreserved, undesignated
fund balance to acceptable levels within three years.
IV. Capital Expenditures and Improvements
The City shall annually review and monitor the condition of the City’s capital equipment and
infrastructure, setting priorities for its replacement and renovation based on needs, funding
alternatives and availability of resources.
Capital Improvements Planning Program
The City shall annually review the Capital Improvements Planning Program (CIP), the
current status of the City’s infrastructure, replacement and renovation needs and potential
new projects and update the program as appropriate. All projects, ongoing and proposed,
shall be prioritized based on an analysis of current needs and resource availability. For
every project, all operation, maintenance and replacement costs shall be fully costed. The
CIP shall also present the City’s long-term borrowing plan, debt payment schedules and
other debt outstanding or planned, including general obligation bonds, revenue bonds and
certificates of obligation.
Replacement of City Vehicles
The City shall annually prepare a schedule for the replacement of its vehicles. Within the
resources available each fiscal year, the City shall replace these assets according to this
schedule.
The Vehicle Replacement Fund will purchase all City vehicles that cost less than $50,000.
Departments will then make annual contributions to this fund, based on the life
expectancy of their equipment, to replace the funds used to purchase vehicles.
Vehicles and heavy equipment that cost more than$50,000 may be funded by one of the
capital expenditure financing methods discussed below.
Capital Expenditures Financing
• The City recognizes that there are several methods of financing capital items. It can
budget the funds from current revenues; take the funds from fund balance/retained
earnings, as allowed by the Fund Balance/Retained Earnings Policy; utilize funds from
grants; or it can borrow the money through some form of debt instrument. Debt financing
includes general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, certificates of obligation and capital
lease agreements.
Capitalization Threshold for Tangible Capital Assets
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommends that “best practice” guidelines
be followed in establishing capitalization thresholds for tangible capital-type items. Accordingly,
the following criteria shall be established with the adoption of this policy.
• Individual items costing $5,000 or more will be capitalized and depreciated according to
Governmental Accounting Standards Board rules. This amount will be adjusted as changes
are recommended in GFOA’s “best practices” guidelines.
Tangible capital-type items will only be capitalized if they have any estimated useful life of
at least two years following the date of acquisition.
Capitalization thresholds will be applied to individual items rather than to groups of similar
items (e.g., desks and tables).
Adequate control procedures at the department level will be established to ensure
adequate control over noncapitalized tangible items.
297
Financial Management Policy
V. Debt Management
The City shall use the following guidelines for debt financing used to provide needed capital
equipment and infrastructure improvements, while minimizing the impact of debt payments on
current and future revenues.
Use of Debt Financing
Debt financing, to include general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, certificates of
obligation and capital lease agreements, shall only be used to acquire capital assets.
Amortization of Debt
Amortization of debt shall be structured in accordance with a multi-year capital
improvement plan. The term of a debt issue will never exceed the useful life of the capital
asset being financed.
Affordability Targets
The City shall use an objective, analytical approach to determine whether it can afford to
assume new debt beyond the amount it retires each year. This process shall compare
generally accepted standards of affordability to the current values for the City. These
standards shall include debt per capita, debt as a percent of taxable value and debt service
payments as a percent of current revenues and current expenditures. The process shall
also examine the direct costs and benefits of the proposed expenditures as determined in
the City’s annual update of the Capital Improvements Planning Program. The decision on
whether or not to assume new debt shall be based on these costs and benefits and on the
City’s ability to afford new debt as determined by the aforementioned standards.
Sale Process
The City shall use a competitive bidding process in the sale of debt unless the nature of
the issue warrants a negotiated bid.
Rating Agencies Presentation
Full disclosure of operations and open lines of communication shall be made available to
the rating agencies. City staff, with assistance of financial advisors, shall prepare the
necessary materials and presentation to the rating agencies.
Continuing Disclosure
The City is committed to continuing disclosure of financial and pertinent credit information
relevant to the City’s outstanding issues.
Debt Refunding
City staff and the financial advisor shall monitor the municipal bond market for
opportunities to obtain interest savings by refunding outstanding debt. A proposed
refunding of debt, for interest cost savings, should provide a present value benefit as a
percent of refunded principal of at least 3%.
VI. Investments
The City’s cash shall be invested in such a manner so as to ensure the absolute safety of principal
and interest, to meet the liquidity needs of the City and to achieve the highest possible yield in
accordance with the City’s Investment Policy. Interest earned from investment shall be
distributed to the City’s funds from which the money was provided.
298
Financial Management Policy

The City shall coordinate efforts with other governmental agencies to achieve common policy
objectives, share the cost of providing government services on an equitable basis and support
appropriate favorable legislation at the state and federal levels.
Interlocal Cooperation in Delivery of Services
In order to promote the effective and efficient delivery of services, the City shall work with
other local jurisdictions to share on an equitable basis the costs of services, to share
facilities and to develop joint programs to improve service to its citizens.
Legislative Program
The City shall cooperate with other jurisdictions to actively oppose any state or federal
regulation or proposal that mandates additional City programs or services and does not
provide the funding necessary for implementation.
VIII. Grants
The City shall seek to obtain and effectively administer federal, state and foundation grants-in-aid
that address the City’s current and future priorities and policy objectives.
Grant Guidelines
The City shall seek to obtain those grants that are consistent with priority needs and
objectives identified by Council.
Indirect Costs
The City shall recover indirect costs to the maximum amount allowed by the funding
source. The City may waive or reduce indirect costs if doing so will significantly increase
the effectiveness of the grant.
Grant Review
The City shall review all grant submittals requiring an in-kind match requirement to
determine their potential impact on the operating budget, and the extent to which they
meet the City’s policy objectives. If there is a cash match requirement, the source of
funding shall be identified and approved prior to application.
Prior to submission, all grant requests will be reviewed by Administrative Services to
ensure the benefits to the City exceed the administrative costs incurred throughout the life
of the grant.
Grant Program Termination
The City shall terminate grant-funded programs and associated positions as directed by
the City Council when grant funds are no longer available, unless alternate funding is
identified.
IX. Economic Development
The City shall initiate, encourage and participate in economic development efforts to create job
opportunities and strengthen the local economy and tax base.
Commitment to Expansion and Diversification
The City shall encourage and participate in economic development efforts to expand
Friendswood’s economy and tax base, to increase local employment and to invest when
299
Financial Management Policy
there is a defined, specific long-term return. These efforts shall not only focus on new
areas, but on established sections of the City where development can generate additional
jobs and other economic benefits.
Tax Abatements
The City of Friendswood is committed to the promotion of quality development in all parts
of the City. On a case-by-case basis, the City will give consideration to providing tax
abatement on the increment in value added to a particular property by a specific
development proposal, which meets the economic goals and objectives of the City.
The tax abatement shall not apply to any portion of the inventory or land value of the
project.
Tax abatement may be offered on improvements to real property owned by the applicant
and/or on new personal property brought to the site by the applicant.
Tax abatement will not be ordinarily considered for projects which would be developed
without such incentives unless it can be demonstrated that higher development standards
or other development and community goals will be achieved through the use of the
abatement.
Increase Non-Residential Share of Tax Base
The City’s economic development program shall seek to expand the non-residential share
of the tax base to decrease the tax burden on residential homeowners.
Coordinate Efforts With Other Jurisdictions
The City’s economic development program shall encourage close cooperation with other
local jurisdictions to promote the economic well being of this area.
X. Fiscal Monitoring
Reports shall be prepared and presented on a regular basis that analyze, evaluate and forecast
the City’s financial performance and economic condition.
Financial Status and Performance Reports
Monthly reports shall be prepared comparing expenditures and revenues to original and
amended budgets, for the month and fiscal year-to-date. Explanatory notes will be
included, as needed.
XI. Accounting, Auditing and Financial Reporting
The City shall comply with prevailing local, state and federal regulations. Its accounting practices
and financial reporting shall conform to generally accepted accounting principles as promulgated
by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA) and the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). The City Council
shall select an independent firm of certified public accountants to perform an annual audit of its
accounting and financial reporting practices.
XII. Internal Control
The Director of Administrative Services is responsible for developing citywide, written guidelines
on accounting, handling of cash and other financial matters. The Director of Administrative
Services will assist Department Directors as needed, in tailoring these guidelines into detailed
written procedures to fit each department’s specific requirements.
300
Financial Management Policy
Each Department Director is responsible to ensure that good internal controls are followed
throughout his or her department, that all guidelines on accounting and internal controls are
implemented and that all independent auditor internal control recommendations are addressed.
XIII. Risk Management
The City will utilize a safety program, an employee health program and a risk management
program to prevent and/or reduce the financial impact to the City due to claims and losses.
Transfer of liability for claims through transfer to other entities through insurance and/or by
contract will be utilized where appropriate. Prevention of loss through the safety program and the
employee health program will be employed.
XIV. Operating Budget
The City shall establish an operating budget that shall link revenues and expenditures to City
Council goals, service and performance standards. It will be the City’s goal to obtain the
distinguished Budget Presentation Award from the Government Finance Officers Association.

seven fund types are: general, special revenue, debt service, capital projects, enterprise,
internal service, and trust and agency.
GENERAL FUND
(GF) The fund used to account for all financial resources, except those required to be accounted
for in another fund.
GENERAL LONG-TERM DEBT
Long-term debt expected to be repaid from governmental funds.
GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
(GAAP) Uniform minimum standards and guidelines for financial accounting and reporting. They
govern the form and content of the financial statements of an entity. GAAP encompass the
conventions, rules and procedures necessary to define accepted accounting practice at a
particular time. They include not only broad guidelines of general application, but also detailed
practices and procedures. GAAP provide a standard by which to measure financial
presentations. The primary authoritative body on the application of GAAP to state and local
governments is the GASB.
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPES
Funds used to account for the acquisition, use and balances of expendable financial resources
and the related current liabilities-except those accounted for in proprietary funds and fiduciary
305
funds. In essence, the funds are accounting segregation of financial resources. Expendable
assets are assigned to the particular fund type according to the purposes for which they may or
must be used. Current liabilities are assigned to the fund type from which they are to be paid.
The difference between the assets and liabilities of governmental fund types is referred to as
fund balance. The measurement focus in these fund types is on the determination of financial
position and changes in financial position (sources, used and balances of financial resources),
rather than on net income determination. The statement of revenues, expenditures and
changes in fund balance is the primary governmental fund type operating statement. It may be
supported or supplemented by more detailed schedules of revenues, expenditures, transfers and
other changes in fund balance. Under current GAAP, there are four governmental fund types:
general, special revenue, debt service and capital projects.
IMPACT FEES
Fees charged to developers to cover, in whole or in part, the anticipated cost of improvements
that will be necessary as a result of the development.
INTERFUND TRANSFERS
All interfund transactions except loans, quasi-external transactions and reimbursements.
INTERGOVERNMENTAL REVENUES
Revenues from other governments in the forms of grants, entitlements, shared revenues or
payment in lieu of taxes.
INTERNAL SERVICE FUND
A fund used to account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department or
agency to other departments or agencies of a government, or to other governments, on a cost-
reimbursement basis.
LEVY
(1) (Verb) To imposes taxes, special assessments or service charges for the support of
government activities. (2) (Noun) The total amount of taxes, special assessments or service
charges imposed by a government.
LIABILITIES
Probable future sacrifices of economic benefits, arising from present obligations of a particular
entity to transfer or provide services to other entities in the future as a result of past
transactions or events.
MAINTENANCE
The act of keeping capital assets in a state of good repair. It includes preventative
maintenance, normal periodic repairs; replacement of parts, structural components and so forth
and other activities needed to maintain the asset so that it continues to provide normal services
and achieves its optimum life.
MODIFIED ACCRUAL BASIS
The accrual basis of accounting adapted to the governmental fund-type measurement focus.
Under it, revenues and other financial resources increments (e.g., bond issue proceeds) are
recognized when they become susceptible to accrual, that is when they become both
"measurable" and "available to finance expenditures of the current." "Available" means
collectible in the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the
current period. Expenditures are recognized when the fund liability is incurred except for (1)
inventories of materials and supplies that may be considered expenditure either when purchased
or when used, and (2) prepaid insurance and similar items that may be considered expenditures
either when paid for or when consumed. All governmental funds, expendable trust funds and
agency funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis accounting.
306
OBJECT
As used in expenditure classification, applies to the article purchased or the service obtained,
rather than to the purpose for which the article or service was purchased or obtained (e.g.,
personal services, contractual services, materials and supplies).
ORDINANCE
A formal legislative enactment by the governing body of a municipality. If it is not in conflict
with any higher form of law, such as state statute or constitutional provision, it has the full force
and effect of law within the boundaries of the municipality to which it applies. The difference
between and ordinance and a resolution is that the latter requires less legal formality and has a
lower legal status. Ordinarily, the statutes or charter will specify or imply those legislative
actions that must be by ordinance and those that may be by resolution. Revenue-raising
measures, such as the imposition of taxes, special assessments and
service charges, universally require ordinances.
ORGANIZATIONAL-UNIT CLASSIFICATION
(ORG UNIT) Expenditure classification according to responsibility centers within a government's
organizational structure. Classification of expenditures by organizational unit is essential to
fulfilling stewardship responsibility for individual government resources.
PROPRIETARY FUND TYPES
Sometimes referred to as income determination or commercial-type funds, the classification
used to account for a government's ongoing organizations and activities that are similar to those
often found in the private sector (i.e., enterprise and internal service funds). All assets,
liabilities, equities, revenues, expenses and transfers relating to the government's business and
quasi-business activities are accounted for through proprietary funds. The GAAP used are
generally those applicable to similar businesses in the private sector and the measurement focus
is on determination of net income, financial position and changes in financial position. However,
where the GASB has issued pronouncements applicable to those entities and activities, they
should be guided by these pronouncements.
RESERVED
An element of the equity section of the governmental fund balance sheet comprised of three
major fund balance elements: reserved; unreserved, designated; and unreserved,
undesignated. When used in association with the governmental funds, the term “reserved”
should be limited to describing the portion of fund balance that is (1) not available for
appropriation or expenditure and/or (2) is segregated legally for a specific future use. A
common example of the first type of reservation within the governmental funds is “reserved for
inventories.” Another example, “reserved for loans receivable,” represents amounts expected to
be collected in the future. Therefore, this receivable is not available for expenditure or
appropriation at the balance sheet date. In this instance, the loans receivable amount is not
associated with revenue recognition. However, if outstanding receivables (e.g., property taxes)
are related to revenue that is not available, deferred revenue should be reported, not a
reservation of fund balance. . “Reserved for Encumbrances” is a common example of the
second reserve type. This type of reserve is legally earmarked for a specific purpose.
Generally, the reservations are based on third-party restrictions (e.g., contract with vendor).
RETAINED EARNINGS

SPECIAL REVENUE FUND
A fund used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (other than expendable
trusts or major capital projects) that are legally restricted to expenditure for specified purposes.
GAAP only
requires the use of special revenue funds when legally mandated.
TAX RATE
The amount of tax stated in terms of a unit of the tax base (e.g., 25 mills per dollar of assessed
valuation of taxable property.)
TAX ROLL
The official list showing the amount of taxes levied against each taxpayer or property.
Frequently, the tax roll and the assessment roll are combined, but even in these cases the two
can be distinguished.
TRUST FUNDS
Funds used to account for assets held by a governmental unit in a trustee capacity or as an
agent for individuals, private organizations, other governmental units, and/or other funds.
These include (a) expendable trust funds, (b) nonexpendable trust funds, (c) pension trust
funds, and (d) agency funds.
UNRESERVED
The equity section of the governmental fund balance sheet is comprised of three major fund
balance elements: reserved; unreserved, designated; and unreserved, undesignated. (Also
reference Unreserved, Designated and Unreserved, Undesignated.)
UNRESERVED, DESIGNATED
A designation of unreserved fund balance established by a government to indicate tentative
plans for the use of current financial resources in the future. Examples of designations include
equipment replacement and contingencies. These designations should not cause the
government to report a deficit unreserved, undesignated fund balance. In addition, a
government should not report a deficit unreserved, designated fund balance. In effect, a
government cannot designate resources that are not available for expenditure.
UNRESERVED, UNDESIGNATED
An “unreserved, undesignated fund balance” represents financial resources available to finance
expenditures other than those tentatively planned by the government.
VEHICLE REPLACEMENT PLAN
(VRP) A term used to refer to a plan of vehicle fleet replacements over the next ten years.
