2. Receive and discuss proposed 2019—2020 budget(Staff)Trophy Club Crime Control and
Prevention District.
Discussion opened by Finance Director,John Zagurski regarding budget of the CCPD. John
pointed out the budget was slightly conservative and in the 2nd year of a two year payment plan.
CCPD helps to save out of general fund of the town by assisting with costs like schools and
training, uniforms, etc. Idea was presented of possibly paying building bond earlier as more tax
revenue comes in. That is possible to do.
Chief pointed out that one additional thing we have set aside for next year's budget is for drug
testing to labs. At times the PD needs to send out drugs to a private lab due to constraints of
current drug testing system. Looking forward we will take that into consideration. The drug
dog, Indy,was paid for through special funds. He is four years old and has done well in the
community.
This budget is very close to last year's budget. J.J. Isherwood inquired if there is anything the
department is lacking that Chief feels like we need. Chief mentioned staffing is currently an
issue but that was for another discussion.
Question was asked about the new businesses opening up at PD 30 and how long that would
take, how many people would be there,etc. There will be over 200 apartments and 39
townhomes, approximately 800 people could be living there. There will be roughly 50,000
square feet of retail space when complete.
In conclusion,John Zagurski reiterated the budget was in good condition. He reminded board
members that any restaurants will help increase in sales tax, but that none of the new
shops/restaurants have been projected in the budget.
3. Police Department update.
Chief Arata gave update on Police Department. He stated that a new Tahoe had been
purchased at a reduced price for one of the Command Staff vehicles,there is a new officer in
FTO training who was previously an officer at Tarrant County College and is doing well. Our new
ACO, Brian Hall, is making some valuable changes for the better and has many good ideas for
customer service-oriented concepts. Lastly,the cameras in the dog park are still working well
and crime in dog park has gone down significantly. The Police Department is down one position,
but Chief is trying to hold off for now and will bring that up at a later time, due to overtime paid
out during the school year.
