The Halloween Carnival
is Creeping Closer
(Friday, October 31st – 6-9 pm)
In just a few days, Halloween will be here! You know what that
means! All our trick-or-treaters will be heading to Voigt Park for
our Halloween Spooktacular Carnival! It will be from 6-9pm on
Friday, October 31st. There will be games galore, a spooky story
teller, our famous cake walk and Boy Scout Troop 511 will be
selling food and drinks, in case you get hungry! We need lots and
lots of volunteers to help decorate and set up (starting at 4pm.),
help work a shift (30 minutes) at a game, and finally to help clean
up and put everything away for next year. Last year there were not
enough volunteers and kids came to a game and didn’t know how
to play it. If you are interested and willing to help with this event,
you may contact Shari Tiner at [email protected] or at
490-9737. Halloween Candy donations may be dropped off
at 308 Meadowbrook. Bring your whole family and we will see
you there!

Halloween Cake Walk
Bakers or Buyers Needed!
One of the most popular events at the
Halloween Carnival is the cake walk.
Please consider donating a decorated cake
or cupcakes. Small whole cakes (you can
make two single layers) are just perfect. You
can also quarter large cakes, but we ask that
you cut them ahead of time, so that each
portion is already on its own plate, wrapped
in plastic. What! Too busy to bake? Not a problem, store-bought
cakes or cupcakes are great, too! We want to have enough so every
child can win one. Please bring your spooky cakes and cupcakes to
the Voigt Center on Halloween between 4 and 6 p.m.

The HP Birding Class
The Birding Class that was hosted by resident Leah Palombo Burt on September 6th, attracted around 35 HP
residents. Tom and Patsy Inglet from the Audubon Society and Alamo Chapter Texas Master Naturalists led the
workshop. They had a slide presentation and instructions about binoculars. The class moved outside where various birds were identified. The
highlight of the class was spotting a red-tailed hawk.

Sparks Safety
Snippets
We’ve all done it; lifted or moved something
way too heavy for us. Or maybe your pain originated from repetitive bending. We often hurt
our backs by lifting too much, too many times,
or the wrong way. The result can be pain that
lingers far longer than the deed itself took.
Here’s some tips that can help.
✓ Before you lift, stretch. Take a couple minutes to loosen those muscles.
✓ This also gives you a couple of minutes to
think about what you’re about to do. That
“pre task assessment” might be enough to
keep you from getting hurt on its own.
✓ Use proper body posture. There is a whole
science to lifting, but some key points are:
Keep your back straight; lift with your legs,
not your back; squat, don’t bend; lift straight
in front of you – eliminating the twisting;
✓ Keep the load close to your body
✓ Get help. Often we end up hurting our back
because our heads were too proud.

COOL WEATHER GARDENING
The Hollywood Park Garden Club will meet at the Voigt Center, November 12, at 9:00 to carpool to the Riverwalk. We will do the Museum Reach River Boat Tour led by Lee Marlowe.
Get your $10.00 to Lorelei Campbell, 604 Rua de Matta, as soon as possible. We have 30
spaces, and once those are filled, no more space! Lunch on your ownsnapdragons, calendulas,
cyclamen, primrose. Plant bulbs such as German iris, crocus, oxblood lilies, Dutch iris, daffodils, hyacinths, lycoris, and all types of narcissus. Get tulip bulbs and chill for 4-6 weeks.
You can plant roses this month through winter. Use lots of compost and don’t plant them any
deeper than they were in the pot. Also plant mums, copper canyon daisies, asters and firespike.
If you’re moving plants indoors, drench the soil with diluted orange oil (1 tablespoon/gallon
of water) to eliminate insects. Insects can still be a major problem this month, particularly if
the weather is hot. Watch for whiteflies, spider mites, aphids, and scale. Treat with the recommended product. Release ladybugs. Feed the entire landscape to increase cold tolerance and
provide nutrients for spring growth. Apply ½” of compost to your lawn for thicker, healthier,
greener, and more drought tolerant grass. Fall-blooming annuals and perennials can be kept in
flower longer and will look better if their maturing flowers are removed, OR, leave the flower
seeds for the birds. As leaves start to fall, collect and put them in the compost pile. Dig and
store caladium bulbs. Remember, if cutting oak trees, Cut, Paint!!!
Plant vegetables and herbs: lettuce, spinach, turnip, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, cilantro,
dill, fennel, parsley. Get the wildflower seeds out this month. Plant columbine in a shady location to have springtime blooms.
Gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get tomatoes. ~Author Unknown

Cicada Killer
Many of you have seen those huge
striped rusty brown and yellow wasps
that look like jumbo yellow jackets.
They get their name from their habit of
hunting cicadas. Don’t be alarmed. The
females can but seldom sting humans
unless roughly handled or stepped on. Males do not sting, but they will
buzz you. These wasps are solitary. They are usually docile and harmless–rather difficult to provoke.
Usually they burrow where vegetation is sparse or untidy. Many wasps
might use the same area for nesting, but do not share their nests. Each
female digs her own tunnel or burrow which can go down ten inches.
These wasps want cicadas for their young. The wasp captures the cicada and paralyzes it with its stinger; turns the cicada on its back, straddles it and pulls it to its burrow. Then the wasp carries the cicada to its
underground nest or tunnel where it lays one egg and then seals the
opening; the wasp will repeat this for each egg. They put up to three
cicadas into a cell in the tunnel where the larva feed for up to ten days
until only the cicada’s outer shell remains. The egg hatches and feeds
upon the cicada, pupates and then metamorphosizes in the spring to
emerge from the nest In the fall, the circle of life begins again when
the wasp larva spins a silken case, shrinks, winters over and emerges as
an adult in the summer.

Deer Committee – September 8
Roll Call: Marcus Benn, absent
Minutes of July 7 meeting with corrections, passed 9-0.
Wildlife Incident Reports: There were 9 reports with 2 bucks dead
(one was put down due to 2 broken back legs), 3 fawns injured, and
4 fawns dead (one was put down after being hit by a vehicle). These
reports were accepted. 9-0.
Presentation: Before our Deer Project Manager spoke, Mayor Fails addressed the Committee. He noted that previous Mayors had come in
between the Deer Comm. and our DPM. He doesn’t want to be there,
nor be that involved. He did request that the deer equipment that HP
has purchased be stored in HP. He feels strongly that the Deer. Comm.
should manage the deer population. Chmn. J. Doss noted that the Deer
Comm. can use the designated budget, but if something comes up that
is outside the budget, the Comm. will go through the City Secretary,
Janice Alamia, and then present the request to the Council. L. Morris
noted that in several places in the Deer Management Ordinance, it refers to the Mayor having the DPM report directly to him. Ms. Alamia
replied that the Ordinance was being reworked to remove those parts.
Mr. Mayfield plans to change from trapping the deer to darting them.
HP had a problem with darting many years ago, but the technology has
changed and improved. Now the darts have a GPS chip in them, so all of
them can be recovered. He will dart the deer from his truck and have a
second truck with 5 helpers follow him. One helper is assigned to jump
out and follow 1 darted deer, so 5 deer can been tracked at the same
time. They make sure it doesn’t collapse in the street. There will also be
a veterinarian on sight. The budget was discussed. The Council had proposed $4,300 for next year, but Mr. Mayfield suggested $8,500 to cover
the cost of the more expensive darts and any CWD testing that would
be needed. The Mayor agreed to that amount. A motion to submit a
budget of $8.500 passed, 9-0. The DPM and Ms. Alamia discussed how
he would purchase the items he needed and how he would be repaid.
Ms. Alamia suggested that there be a Committee Designee to act as a
liaison between the Comm. and the DPM – so the Comm. doesn’t have
to meet every time he needed to make a purchase. The Designee would
have the authority to approve any purchases. LuAnn Montgomery volunteered to be the Designee.
New Business: 1) HP Deer Management plan for 2014-2015 – Mr.
Mayfield reported that he has approval to TTP (process) if we can’t
TTT (transport). The Ozona ranch can take 40, another ranch north of
Hondo that can take up to 25, and a third ranch can take 10 if need be.
Steve and Barbara Linick
ERA Troy, Realtors
884-2571 or 884-2572
He also got the $750 release sight fee waived. The ranchers will come to
HP to get the deer. He hopes to get 15 per session. He counted 100 deer
in the same area of town where he trapped last year. He wants to dart in
late September through early November and take does that are not pregnant. The final session will be in next February – March. 2) Proposed
Deer management expenditures – see above. 3) Date for Fall Deer Survey – it will be held on Thursday, September 25, at 6:30 at City Hall. 4)
Deer Crossing Signs – B. Lane of the EDC sent 2 choices of proposed
Deer Signs that the Comm. could decide upon. They choose a sign with
a green background, gold letters that say SLOW with a white jumping
deer in the middle. These signs will be placed around HP where there
has been deer/vehicle contact.
B. Schmitz passed out a handout about permanent deer birth control.
She wants the Comm. to read it and be ready to discuss it next month.

Core Aeration & Organic Compost
Part 1 – Proposed Tax Rate
Roll Call: H. McBrayer, absent
Mayor Fails explained that the tax rate will NOT change from last year. Our
property values, however, did go up, which will cause the taxes to also go up.
Citizen Participation: B. Sartor noted that the past few years have been
good and our cash reserves have grown to 16 months. When he began as
Mayor, HP had 5 weeks of cash reserve. The recommended savings is 3-6
months. If we kept 12 months in reserve, we would have about $720,000
to play with. He suggested bringing down the tax rate to the effective rate
of $0.4848. Anytime we can give our seniors a break, is good. As far as the
COLA (cost of living adjustment) salary increases goes – people will then
expect them every year. If you are over 2% (the national average), you had
better explain it.
Part 2 – Work Session on Proposed Budget
Roll Call: H. McBrayer, absent
Finance Director, Adelina Mardegain announced that the group insurance
renewal came in 15% less than projected, which is a savings for HP. The biggest change to the budget is the proposed addition of a DEA Agent at a cost
of $82,000. HP will get revenues from their Forfeit/Seizure Fund for this officer to help pay for his expenses. The proposed new Administration Dept.
car will be transferred to the Police Dept. for the DEA officer. Police Chief
Prichard explained that it is not unique to have a DEA officer. The DEA
takes officers from surrounding towns, and counties to form a narcotic task
force. HP will pay the officer’s salary, but the DEA will pay for everything
else, like overtime. HP will get a percentage of the seizure money as a return
on this investment. The percentages change depending on how much the officer was involved with the case. Chief Prichard spent three years supervising the Kendall County DEA agent before coming to HP. The Chief noted
that Boerne received around $250,000 in three years from the Forfeit/Seizure Fund. Obviously, he cannot guarantee HP will receive that much, but
every bit helps. The money returned from the Forfeit/Seizure Fund cannot
be spent on wages, but can be spent on vehicles, training, ammunition, and
other Police needs A position possibly will open in January with the DEA
and this officer will work undercover for them. The Administration Dept.

that all have DEA agents working for them. There will be a contract with the
DEA, so HP can get out of the program after one year if they need to.
Citizen Participation: B. Sartor noted that the budget is an authorization
to spend money, not a pool of money. Check the DEA officer’s salary and
there could be some exceptions as to how to use the Forfeiture/Seizure
Fund money. HP should consider the insurance costs for about 5 years and
options to get out of it. The Administrative vehicle is an asset, so people are
more accountable and able to come in on “off times”. The COLA is too high.
The Police budget is now higher than the Fire Department’s. A letter was
sent to the Mayor from E. Collins in which she states that she and her husband have lived here since 1962. They support our town and are very proud
to live here. She asks why HP does not freeze the taxes for senior citizens
like other cities do? It is very hard for them to live on a fixed income when
their taxes keep going up.
Public Hearing # 2 – September 11
Roll Call: D. Neugebauer, H. McBrayer, absent
Mayor Fails repeated from last week that the tax rate will not change from
last year.
Citizen Participation: B. Sartor wants the tax rate to be moved down to
$0.4848 which is the effective tax rate. This would bring in the same income
as last year. Take the difference and move it from the general accounts into
the revenue. It just lowers the general reserve. The proposed COLA raises
exceeds the CPI (Consumer Price Index) of 2%. You can’t pass the increase
on like businesses do, just give 2%. CM Murphy asked what is the difference
in the income for HP between a tax rate of $0.4848 and $0.511? It is about
$85,000. The increase will be about $70.00/household, depending on the
size of your property.

and prosecutor for the City of HP for many years and now offices in HP. He
represents governmental entities including the EDC. He commented that
this Board is more active than previous boards and his goal is to help them

Renewal of term of Board Members: At the end of September, 4 Board

Nick Prater will return, but Phil Wilberg, due to an extensive work travel
schedule will not. Mr. Lane thanked Mr. Wilberg for his hard work and initiating and completing the Tree City USA Designation for HP. Clark Smith, a 2
yr. HP resident and civil engineer was nominated to replace Mr. Wilberg. Mr.
Smith knows both Mr. Lane and Mayor Fails. His nomination to the Board
was accepted.
New Business: 1) Kara Hill made a presentation to the Board concerning the
types of grants that HP may want to apply for. She has 12 years of economic

Old Business: 1) Relationship with Texas Creative –B. Lane has met twice
with Texas Creative, once with Mary Uhlig and once with Nick Prater concerning their lack of performance and extra costs. Neither meeting went well.
A mutual agreement has developed to end the contract. Mr. Lane is now waiting for final verification of bills, before final payments are made. 2) Future
marketing plans – Mary Uhlig has found a small graphics firm and a small
hosting firm to continue our social media plans for a website. She will present this next month. 3) Signs – Mr. Lane contacted Ms. Koons, who owns
a sing company and she helped find various sign vendors to pick up where
Texas Creative left off. Some of the original bids were very high. The Board
approved a new revised budget of $92,000 to pay for all the signs and banners.
A different company will make the street signs with a small change. They will
have a green background, gold trim and reflective white letters. The installation of the signs will be: a) City Hall with Police and Fire Badges – Oct. 13,
b) Entrance signs – Oct. 20, and c) Street signs and banners (on 281) – Oct.
27. 4) Promotion of commercial property – they will look into improving the
outside of Galleria Oaks (cover the dark red brick) and make it their focus
for 2015. They will wait to hear from Ms. Hill about any possible grants they
could use for commercial properties.
New Business: 2) Implement digital advertising with Clear Channel and the
City Hall Marquee – J. Dini reminded the Board that the EDC reserved 20%
of the use of the City Hall marquee for HP advertising. HP also has 40hrs/
year per sign with Clear Channel. He wants to make an effort to support the
food businesses in Galleria Oaks. He volunteered to visit with each one and
offer his services to help them increase their business. He suggested that they
might tie in an offer for HP residents with the use of the digital signs. Mayor
Fails noted that HP’s use of the Clear Channel signs can NOT be used for
businesses. Mr. Dini will report back next month. 3) Shredding Day – A
shredding truck will be a City Hall on Oct. 11 from 10-12 noon. Police and
Fire Depts. will also participate. The Board approved a cost of $800 to pay
for a postcard mailing and the cost of the shredding truck. 4) Arbor Day/
Fall Community Fair Day – C. Lane from the Tree Comm. announced that
Mark Duff had ordered Mountain Laurel, Mexican Buckeye, and Bald Cypress to be sold on Arbor Day. The Board approved a budget of $ 1,600 to pay
for mulch and the trees, passed 5-0. 5) Holiday Inn - A budget of $500 was
passed, 5-0, to hold an open house at holiday time, to promote seasonal stay.
6) Future Plans – Possibly work with HCV on banners and video surveillance
with the Police Dept. (bad guys escape through HCV).

Summary of City Council – September 23
Special Session
Roll Call: D. Neugebauer, absent
Approve an Ordinance to adopt the budget for 2014-2015. CM Phillips
noted that he has had complaints about putting up the digital signs. He
commented that HP needed the revenue they generate, since losing the fire
contract. Concerning the digital sign on Sterling Browning, he re-explained
that former Mayor Ortega and Mayor Fails tried for months to move it, it
didn’t work out. A motion to adopt the budget passed, 4-0. Adopt the tax
rate for 2014-2015 of $0.511. This motion passed, 4-0.
A motion to ratify the two previous votes passed, 4-0. Each of the three
above motions were passed by a Roll Call vote. All voted Yea.
Regular Meeting
Announcements: Police Chief Prichard announced that HP has a Police
intern, Juan, a criminal justice student, from UTSA. He noted that the
burglaries were up, but that was due to the break-ins at the Public Storage
facility. Sgt. Williams, on night patrol, was the officer who caught the suspect. CM Phillips asked that next year, please include the previous years’
numbers in the monthly stats. The Chief agreed. Financial Director Adelina
Mardegain commented that our insurance company no longer covers “indemnity” for the Council Members. There was a discussion about where
the insurance came from, who covers them now and the City Atty. will look
into finding replacement coverage. City Secretary Janice Alamia thanked
Mr. Lane of the EDC, Ms. Mardegain for her years of work on the marque,
and Mr. Wilberg of the EDC for the new digital City Hall marque sign. She
loves it.
New Business: 3) The Council discussed the renewal of the employees’
insurance policy for 2014-2015. They plan to offer a vison component. CW
McBrayer felt that since we had not offered it before, we don’t need to now.
We are expecting a huge increase in rates next year and this will only add to
it. The total cost increase from last year including vision is around $11,000.
A motion to accept the new insurance rates with vision passed, 4-0. 4) Approve the re- appointment and appointment of EDC Board members. Mr.
Lane, Pres. of the EDC noted that in September 4 EDC Board Members’
terms were expiring. Mr. Lane, Mr. Prater and Mr. Farrimond will all return, but Mr. Wilberg will not, due to his excessive travel schedule for work.
Mr. Lane has nominated Clark Smith a civil engineer who has worked land
deals and as a transportation engineer to replace Mr. Wilberg. A motion
to approve the reappointments and new appointment to the EDC Board
passed, 4-0.
be done to locate utilities, trees, and buildings on the property. CM Neugebauer is working with a couple of members of the EDC to work up an architectural team to develop a master plan. CW McBrayer wants Public Hearings for citizen input. Mayor Fails requested 2 Hearings on the RFQ.
New Business: 1) Amend Personnel Policy Manual – The Council discussed changing the Policy so that a full-time employee can take 2 personal
business days together and with vacation time, instead one day alone each
6 months. Citizen Participation: B. Sartor suggested giving every employee
2 days (flex days) per year to use however they want. Both Fire and Police
Chiefs agreed. Mr. Sartor also suggested changing the date to the fiscal year
instead of the employee’s anniversary employment date, which is difficult
to keep up with. CM Murphy asked about doctor’s appointments or deaths
in the family. Ms. Alamia responded that those absences are covered by sick
and bereavement days. A motion of accept these changes, passed, 4-0. 2)
Changes to the Deer Management Program – Mayor Fails explained that
currently the Council members choose two members each to be on the
Deer Comm. It follow the rules of the Texas Open Meetings Act. He wants
to empower the Committee to run the Deer Management Program. As the
Ordinance is now written, the Mayor and the Deer Project Manager can
meet and decide how to run the program, thereby avoiding the Deer Committee. Mayor Fails wants to prevent that. Citizen Participation: B. Sartor
cautioned against moving authority to non-elected officials. The Committee still needs to come to the Council or Mayor to decide about money. N.
Swan a member of the Deer Comm., noted that the Comm. still answers
to the Council and doesn’t do anything without their permission. The proposed new language has our Committee tied to rules of the TPWD, which
are not the same as our current practices. CM Phillips asked why this is even
an Agenda item. The Deer Comm. is doing a good job. He wants to leave
things as they are. Mayor Fails will work with the City Atty. and bring this
item back at the next meeting.
