ASKINS JOHN 0, ARMSTRONG July 16, 2004 Mr. Nick Finan Interim Planning Director City Hall City of La Porte RE: Reimbursement to citizens affected by renaming of Canada Road Dear Mr. Finan: In connection with questions raised by members of the La Porte City Council concerning possible economic reimbursement to citizens affected by the renaming of Canada Road to East Boulevard, you have asked our office to prepare a memorandum regarding the allowable scope of such measures. After consultation with Assistant City Attorney John Armstrong and City Attorney Knox Askins, it is the legal opinion of our office that the City of La Porte may legally provide limited, monetary assistance to qualifying residents who live on Canada Road, or have a Canada Road mailing address, and who face actual out-of-pocket expenses due to the name change to East Boulevard. Those individuals, or entities, as the case may be, that do not actually incur quantifiable expenses should not be considered for reimbursement, as this would in essence amount to a gratuitous appropriation or donation in violation of Texas Constitution Article XI, Section 3. As such, we are recommending that City Council adhere to the following general guidelines if the decision is made to institute a reimbursement program: 1) A formal claims process should be provided for affected residents, in which applicants are asked to complete an application form and other necessary paperwork, to document their claims for out-of-pocket expenses. 2) For purposes of administrative efficiency, it is recommended that City Council by resolution authorize the City Manager's office to process and render the final decision on each application. 2) The application should itemize by category and cost the list of expenses the applicant is claiming. 3) The City Manager should not be limited to a straight up or down vote on each application, but may take a "line-item" approach in which the City Manager's e e office accepts or rejects individual claims for reimbursement where multiple claims are made by a single applicant. 4) The City Manager should take each application on a case-by-case basis, based on consideration of the merits of each application, the facts and circumstances of the underlying case(s), and consideration of the guidelines contained within this memorandum. , 5) The City Manager's office should establish caps for reimbursement to individuals, families, or businesses, as the case may be, to a set dollar amount. This may be a graduated scale, whereby an individual is limited to a certain sum, and a family or business is entitled to a higher cap 6) In general, the City Manager should limit reimbursement to "small" items, such as changes in lettering, minor signage, stationary, etc. 7) Finally, we would recommend that city staff be cognizant about contacting associated utility companies in connection with the name change. Thank you, and should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at my office. Sincerely, ~s~ Assist. City Attorney e e La Porte, TX 77571 June 25, 2004 To: La Porte City Council La Porte, TX Subject: Canada Road Residents - Opposition to Changes Dear Council members, The undersigned residents of Canada Road, La Porte, TX respectfully oppose the renaming of our street and the renumbering of homes thereon. We have many reasons, and the more relevant ones are listed below: 1. The request to change came from a person who does not even live on Canada Road. Advantages to this person are readily offset by the disadvan~es to residents who do live there. 2. Examples of the disadvantages are: a. This is a major, unnecessary inconvenience for residents on Canada Road. b. Extensive address clUmges must be sent to every supplier of materials and services. c. Residents will be notifying family and friends of their new addresses for a long time. d. Residents must notify banks and other financial institutions of new mailing addresses. e. Banks must veritY addresses on Canada Road so statements and notices will mive on time. f. Drivers Licenses, Social Security, Teachers Retirement, and Health-Care, and other documents will have to be upgraded. g. Responses to emergencies on Canada Road may be delayed because of address confusion. h. Out-of-tOWD businesses will struggle over a long period to correct customers' addresses. i. Memories of the expense, aggravation, and inconvenience of unneeded changes will last a long time. j. The list goes on, but we believe Council will understand that the problems far outweigh the rewards. We ask and believe that you will objectively consider our concerns, and conscientiously decide in our favor.

The amount they pay in 2004 will be the amount they will pay for years into the future. The tax freeze was approved, 4-1, by the city council last night, with the amendment that the council would, in January, consider adjusting the senior homestead exemptions already in place. Council member Mike Nowels, who cast the vote against the freeze, said he is not against a reduction of taxes paid by senior citizens and disabled persons, but that he did not want to make a quick, irreversible decision, when he felt not enough research on the long-term results had been done. Council member Rudy Durham, who is also the deputy chief appraiser in the Denton County Appraisal District, requested that the item be put on Monday's agenda for consideration. He said the idea of the tax freeze had been discussed in the past by the council, but was put off while legislators were debating school finance reform. "In my mind, we can't wait to see what the legislature does," Durham said. "My intent would be to keep the exemptions the way they are, but I can see that there may be a need to adjust them." Currently, property owners ages 65 and older receive a $60,000 exemption - meaning that $60,000 is knocked off the total value of the house. An exemption of $20,000 is granted for disabled persons. The exemptions are not income-based and a person can qualify for only one, not both. They are also considerably higher than those given in the other cities that have passed tax freezes, which include Euless, Grand Prairie, Hurst and Plano. The city's current exemption is also much higher than the minimum set by the state. Council members agreed to gradually adjust the exemption amount, starting in 2005, to offset some of the future revenue lost because of the freeze. They also said they would like to see less of a difference between the exemption amount given to seniors and that given to disabled persons. There was much discussion among the council members before they reached a decision, including concern about the uncertainty of the state legislature regarding school finance reform. Others were very cautious about putting the freeze in place, because it is a permanent move and cannot be repealed. But a decision had to be made on Monday if the freeze would occur with the 2004 tax bill. 1 e e Two residents spoke in favor of the tax freeze. In the end, council members decided that because the city has been.prudent with its business in the past, the city could afford to watch out for their senior citizens and disabled persons by providing them with this benefit. 2 e It Alexander, Cynthia From: Sent: To: Subject: Lewis F.

Many seniors got their way Tuesday night after an eight-month clash that cost a City Council member his seat and forced a debate on the city's financial future. The council voted 4-3 to lock in property-tax bills for disabled residents and the nearly 2,100 senior households in Bedford. The freeze cannot be revoked, city officials said. Budget projections have indicated that the freeze will cost about $5.2 million over the next decade, though supporters dispute that figure. Mayor Rick Hurt, who voted against the freeze, said the city will have to raise taxes for the other Bedford residents to keep property-tax revenues where they are. "It does create some challenges," Hurt said. "It falls to our younger taxpayers" to make up the difference. Bedford resident Bob Stewart, who spoke in favor of the tax break at the meeting, said Hurt is making excuses. "Now everything is going to be blamed on the tax freeze," he said. "All they need to do is be more prudent in other spending." Backers saw the vote as a victory for residents older than 65 who have paid taxes for years and face financial difficulties on fixed incomes. Opponents worry that the city is already facing a tight budget, and they have argued that the city's $50,000 property-tax exemption for seniors is more generous than breaks given by nearby cities. Councilwoman Lori Nail, the council's chief backer of the freeze, said residents have been heard. She said the city's finances were already unstable before the freeze. "We need to move forward," she said. Councilwoman Alicia McGlinchey, who voted against the freeze, said the tax freeze is the least of the city's problems. Council members and residents pointed out Tuesday night that the city's sales tax revenues have also been declining. "It's just piling onto an already precarious financial situation," she said. 1 Nail was joined by counc~en Leahmon Chambers, Roy sa~e and Jim Griffin in voting for the freeze. Hurt, McGlinchey and Councilwoman Pam Conley voted against it. Since November, the council has grappled with the measure four times, with 4-3 votes see-sawing each time. In November, the council narrowly passed the freeze, only to backtrack in January. In response, a community activist group targeted former Councilman Kim Smith, who opposed the freeze, in the May election. The group backed Chambers, who won along with Nail. Earlier this month, the new council majority reversed the January decision and approved the first reading of the ordinance. Colleyville, Southlake and. several other area cities have adopted the freeze since September, when voters approved a state constitutional amendment allowing municipalities to enact the tax break. Many opponents of the freeze had wanted voters to decide the matter, but Nail, among others, said the May election gave the council a mandate. School districts are required by state law to freeze property taxes for homeowners who are 65 and older. School districts must also grant a $10,000 property-tax exemption to senior citizens. Many at Tuesday's meeting said the city now needs to put aside its differences and move on. "I hope this is the last time we have to discuss this," said Ralph Good, a Bedford resident who spoke on behalf of the measure. Hurt said later that he couldn't agree more. "If I never hear the words tax freeze again, it will be too soon," he said. By the numbers Effect of the property-tax. freeze based on November projections by the city of Bedford: · Senior households affected: 2,070 . Projected cost of the freeze: $5.2 million over 10 years 2 Alexander. Cynthia e e From: Sent: To: Subject: Lewis F.

If the city secretary confirms that at least 500 signatures are those of registered voters in Benbrook, the council would ratify the petition at its July 1 meeting. The recall election would then be set for Sept. 11, city officials said. Council members John Vander Pan, Ron Saurna and Keith Bailey said they voted for the tax freeze March 4 because more than 80 percent of the city's residents voted in favor of a state constitutional amendment allowing cities; counties and junior college districts to enact. the tax break. Councilman Al Griner, who did not seek re-election in May, also favored the freeze. Mayor F.T. Hebert and council members Jerry Dittrich and Rickie Allison voted against freezing taxes. Mark Greene, an organizer of Recall 357, said the council members made an irresponsible decision because the tax freeze cannot be rescinded. "The council knew that it was irrevocable," Greene said. "You don't pass things that are irrevocable." Greene said he voted for the constitutional amendment but did not realize then that the tax freeze couldn't be rescinded once it passed. Saurna said he was "proud that I was able to freeze seniors' taxes in our city." "I believe that seniors on fixed incomes and people with disabilities deserve this," he said. "How can anybody deprive them of a break?" Bailey agreed, saying that before voting, he talked to many residents who favored freezing taxes. Vander Pan said he wasn't surprised that the group got the signatures, but is concerned about the expense of the election. City Manager Cary Conklin said renting voting machines and printing ballots probably would cost $5,000 to $7,000, which does not include city employees' salaries. The city budgets money for elections every year, he said. 1 Members of Recall 357 sai~the council made a hasty de!l!ion with the 4-3 vote, disregarding information from the city staff showing that Benbrook would lose tax revenue while seeing an increasing senior citizen population. Vander Pan said the council did not receive "complete" information from city staff about the prospect of new commercial development along u.s. 377, or that more homes would be built in Benbrook. The loss of revenue from the tax freeze will be minimal in the city's budget, he said. Conklin said he gave the council information based on facts. The city's senior population is increasing, he said, pointing to the 2004 census, which showed that 18 percent of the city's residents are senior adults, compared with 10 percent seniors in the 1990 census.

The council approved the tax freeze 5-2, with Councilmen Bill Lanford and Dale Clark voting against it. About half of the 21 residents who addressed the council said seniors deserve a tax break after years of paying their dues to the city. The others pushed the council to reject the tax cap, saying it would force the city to cut services and place a larger tax burden on businesses and younger residents. "Times right now are kind of hard for people on fixed incomes, and I am on fixed income," said Morris McCormick, 79, one of about 80 people who packed City Hall. "Every dollar I make, I try to use it wisely." The tax freeze is expected to cost the city about $1.9 million over the next 10 years, according to city estimates that assume a 5 percent annual increase in property values, an increase in the number of seniors and disabled residents, and a stable tax rate. The rate is 52.095 cents per $100 of assessed value. A more conservative estimate puts the lost revenue at $1.1 million over 10 years, assuming a 3.29 percent annual increase in property values and a slower rate of increase in the number of seniors and disabled residents. "I believe it is fiscally sound," Councilman Jim Sutton said. "I believe the numbers and projections I have personally done show the impact will not be great over time." Seniors make up 2,344 and disabled residents 156 of the 13,500 households in Haltom City. If the tax freeze had been in place for the last 10 years, the city would have lost $582,370, based on actual figures. Lanford said he voted against the freeze because he wanted to be fair to all residents, young and old. "The tax freeze could have a bad effect on the city's credit rating," Lanford said. "The city is struggling to do the best we can already. There are other ways we can help senior citizens here. We should. This is just not the way." David Harper, 48, said he is worried that the loss of revenue will cause the city to fall into disrepair. 1 "As well-intentioned as Allhink the tax freeze is, I d~t think it's fair, and I think it cripples the city," Harper said. The council granted preliminary approval to the freeze in October, but a final vote was delayed as city officials gathered financial information. A recall election that shut down the city government for three months also delayed the process. On the advice of the city attorney, the council decided last week not to hold a special election Sept. 11 that would have let voters decide whether to allow the freeze. City Attorney Wayne Olson said the state constitution provides two ways to implement the freeze: The council can approve it, or residents can force an election with a petition. But the council cannot set an election, he said. North Richland Hills set an election for Sept. 11 to decide on a tax freeze, but that city's charter has different election provisions, allowing a different interpretation, Olson said. Bedford, Colleyville, Southlake and several other area cities have also approved the freeze, which cannot be revoked. What it means to you The tax freeze will apply to seniors 65 and older and disabled residents. Their tax bills will not increase, even if property values and property-tax rates do, beginning with the tax bills that will be mailed in October. 2 . . . . e. e .
