agreement with the MUD to continue testing the City's water. The MUD had

AGENDA MEMO
7/7/2015Agenda
TO:Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:Jacob Speer, Deputy Director of Public Works
SUBJECT:Discuss prohibiting busesand limousines from parking on public streets
BACKGROUND:
Staff has received complaints regarding limousines being parked overnight on City
streets, especially in residential areas. Current ordinances prohibit the parking of motor
homes, travel trailers, boat trailers, and similar vehicles on City streets except for
immediate loading and unloading. As the ordinancesare currently written, tour buses,
limousines, and similar vehicles are not prohibited from being left on our streets. The
attached draft ordinance adds buses and limousines to the list of vehicles prohibited
from parking on the street.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is seeking direction from the Council about prohibiting the parking of buses and
limousines on City streets.

Our Drinking Water Meets or Exceeds All
Federal (EPA) Drinking Water RequirementsThis report is a summary of the quality of the water we provide our customers. The analysis was made by using the data from the most recentU.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) required tests and is presentedin the attached pages. We hope this information helps you become moreknowledgeable about what’s in your drinking water.
About The Following PagesThe pages that follow list all of the federally regulated or monitored contaminants which have been found in your drinking water. The U.S.EPA requires water systems to test for up to 97 contaminants.
Definitions
Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL)The highest permissible level of a contaminant in drinking water. MCLsare set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.
Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG)The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is noknown or expected health risk. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.
Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL)The highest level of disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for controlof microbial contaminants.
Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG)The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no knownor expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the useof disinfectants to control microbial contamination.
Treatment Technique (TT)A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.
Action Level (AL)The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatmentor other requirements which a water system must follow.

You may be more vulnerable than the general population to certainmicrobial contaminants, such as Cryptosporidium, in drinking water.Infants, some elderly or immunocompromised persons such as thoseundergoing chemotherapy for cancer; those who have undergone organtransplants; those who are undergoing treatment with steroids; and people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders can be particularly at risk from infections. You should seek advice aboutdrinking water from your physician or health care provider. Additional guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection byCryptosporidium are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline
(1-800-426-4791).
Special Notice
Required Language for ALL Community
Public Water Supplies:
ALL drinking water may contain contaminants.When drinking water meets federal standards there may not be any healthbased benefits to purchasing bottled water or point of use devices.Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected tocontain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk.More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline
(1-800-426-4791).
Secondary ConstituentsMany constituents (such as calcium, sodium, or iron) which are often foundin drinking water, can cause taste, color, and odor problems. The taste andodor constituents are called secondary constituents and are regulated by theState of Texas, not the EPA. These constituents are not causes for healthconcern. Therefore, secondaries are not required to be reported in this document but they may greatly affect the appearance and taste of your water.

Required Additional Health Information for LeadIf present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily frommaterials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. This water supply is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposureby flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to haveyour water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking WaterHotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Systems must complete and submit disinfection data on the Disinfection Level Quarterly Operating Report (DLQOR). On the CCR report, thesystem must provide disinfectant type, minimum, maximum and average levels.
Turbidity has no health effects. However, turbidity can interfere with disinfection and provide a medium for microbial growth. Turbidity may indicate the presence of disease-causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea and associated headaches.

Where do we get our drinking water?The source of drinking water used by the City of University Park isPurchased Surface Water from ELM FORK TRINITY RIVER. A SourceWater Susceptibility Assessment for your drinking water sources(s) is currently being updated by the Texas Commission on EnvironmentalQuality. This information describes the susceptibility and types of constituents that may come into contact with your drinking water sourcebased on human activities and natural conditions. The information contained in the assessment allows us to focus our source water protectionstrategies. Some of this source water assessment information will beavailable later this year on Texas Drinking Water Watch athttp://dww.tceq.state.tx.us/DWW/. For more information on source waterassessments and protection efforts at our system, please contact us.
WATER SOURCES:The sources of drinking water (both tap water andbottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs,and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through theground, it dissolves naturally-occurring minerals, and in some cases,radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. Contaminants that may bepresent in source water before treatment include: microbes, inorganic contaminants, pesticides, herbicides, radioactive contaminants, and organicchemical contaminants.Contaminants that may be present in source water include:•Microbial contaminants- such as viruses and bacteria, which may comefrom sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock oper-ations, and wildlife.•Inorganic contaminants - such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm water run-off, industrial ordomestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farm-ing.
City of University Park
•Pesticides and herbicides - may come from a variety of sources such asagriculture, urban storm water run-off, and residential uses.•Organic chemical contaminants - including synthetic and volatileorganic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes andpetroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater run-off, and septic systems.•Radioactive contaminants - can be naturally-occurring or be the resultof oil and gas production, and mining activities.
