of this Agreement, said District shall continue to retain its

services by City, and that all Land, including that which has been
heretofore annexed, shall not have extended to it by ordinance any
rules andreqlilations (a) governing plats and subdivisions of land,
(b) prescribing any building, electrical, plumbing or inspe~tion

appraised value for tax purposes of the annexe~ portion of Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property shall be determined by
the Harris County Apprais~l District. The parties hereto recognize
that said Appraisal District has no authority to appraise the Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property in the unannexed area
for the purpose of computing the "in lieu" payments hereunder.
Therefore, the parties agree that the appraisal' of the Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property in the unannexed area
shall be conducted by City, at city's expense, by an independent
.appraiser of city's selection. The parties recognize that in
making such appraisal for, "in lieu" payment purposes, suc~
