(7) removed from the consensus agenda, adoption of a Resolution, the caption which was read as follows: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MARCOS, TEXAS, APPROVING AMENDMENT NO. ONE TO THE OFFICE SUPPLY CONTRACT BETWEEN THE CITY AND KLIPPLE BUSINESS PRODUCTS TO SUBSTITUTE ADVANCED BUSINESS SYSTEMS, INC. AS CONTRACTOR; AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AMENDMENT ON BEHALF OF THE CITY AND DECLARING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. Mr. Plummer moved for adoption of the Resolution and Mr. Moore seconded the motion. The Council was advised Klipple has sold their business to Advanced Business Systems, and the term of this agreement will be for three months. The Council voted unanimously for adoption of the Resolution. ,~ Mayor Morris introduced a discussion regarding the Moore disannexation request (47.24 acres in the 2000 Block of Ranch Road 12) and direction to Staff. During a prior discussion of this matter earlier in the year Staff was directed to work out a compromise with the Moores which would not disturb the ETJ. The city Council then made a determination not to disannex the property. Mr. Plummer stated he did not think the Moores were getting fair city services. Mr. Gilley reviewed with Council the existing water and wastewater lines in the area and the location of a water line that will be completed in the near future. He stated utilities can be made available through the city's utility extension policy. During the Master Plan Update, annexations will be reviewed. Staff originally recommended to the Council the property not be disannexed because the city would lose ETJ control and zoning. Other City services, including police, fire, parks and streets are available to the Moores. Greg Moore stated the burdens placed on them are high for hill country ranch land and it is not feasible for them to receive utility services. It was consensus of Council to disannex the property leaving a ten-foot strip to keep our existing ETJ control in place. The Moores agreed to pay the surveyor's fee, and the City assume the cost if the Ordinance does not pass, and Mr. Taylor will prepare a letter agreement for the Council's consideration. Mayor Morris introduced a discussion regarding Southwest Texas Aviation's proposed expansion at the San Marcos Municipal Airport and direction to Staff. The Airport Commission has discussed this matter. Allyn Gill advised the Council the Airport Commission received information upon arriving at their last meeting and did not have enough to time act. Mr. Gill was concerned with the future cash flow information that was presented by Bill White. Mr. Gilley advised the Council Southwest Texas Aviation wants to build a new building for expansion of their business, a hangar facility to be owned by the City and leased for twenty years. He stated seven years remain on the lease of the existing hangar, and then the building becomes the city's. Mr. Stallings wants to enter into a lease at this time on the old hangar for an additional thirteen years over and above the seven years remaining on the lease. Bill White advised the Council he has negotiated a rate with Southwest Texas Aviation, and the City has a viable Lessee and would acquire a building in the future. The proposed new hangar would be funded through the Department of Commerce, and those funds are rapidly depleting. Mr. white stated the existing hangar is appraised at $24,000.00 and the new building is estimated to appraise at about $100,000.00. In the year 2013 the city would own and be able to lease this hangar. The new hangar would accommodate larger planes than the existing hangar. The new hangar would create four new jobs within a two-year period. Mr. Gill stated he is not in favor of a buy-out on the existing hangar. He stated it is a bad precedent and
