SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
The GolfComse Cart Path Maintenance & Railroad Depot project is for the replacement of approximately 9,000
linear feet of cart paths and the installation of approximately 400 linear feet of new sidewalk at the Depot.
Bids were opened June 11,2007 with 3 contractors submitting proposals. The low bid was submitted by Brooks
Concrete, Inc in the amount of $308,876.72. Staff reviewed the proposals and recommends that City Council
consider authorizing the construction contract. The City has a prior work history with Brooks Concrete, on many
projects the City has secmed their services to conduct concrete flat work and has found the fIrm's performance to be
good to excellent.
Also, staff recommends the authorization to execute Change Order # I (CO #1). CO #1 reduces the quantities for
the sidewalk at the RR Museum. The quantities shown within the bid form were incorrect. The CO reduces the
original base bid by $21,216.00 determining a new contract price of$287,660.72.
The Cart Path repair is being funded by certifIcates of obligation in the amount of $300,000. The construction cost
of $277,620.72 plus a construction contingency of $22,379.20 resulting in a total of $300,000 to be expended
entirely within the golf comse complex.
The Railroad Depot Museum sidewalk is being funded by the general fund in the amount of$10,040.
Action Required by Council:
Authorize the Interim City Manager to enter into contract with Brooks Concrete, Inc in the amount of
$287,660.72 to perform cart path maintenance and install a new sidewalk. Also, to provide a construction
contingency fund in the amount of $22,379.28 in the event unforeseen conditions are encountered or
additional work is identified for a project cost totaling $310,040.

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
Vantage Development #39, Inc. has recently approached the City for water and sanitary sewer service to
serve their proposed site in Bayport North Industrial Park II. Vantage will operate an office and warehouse
distribution facility at this location.
Council has approved a policy to provide utility services to companies located outside city limits and within
the City's industrial districts. These companies are required to maintain a current Industrial District
Agreement with the City.
Vantage Development #39 Inc. desires to pursue water and sanitary sewer service under the terms of the
policy. Based on the company's stated demand for domestic and industrial process uses, the average daily
demand for water is 10,300 gallons per day. This demand includes utilization of water for the building's fire
sprinkler system and landscape irrigation. The company's requested demand for both domestic and
industrial process uses is within the City's policy limit of 30,000 gallons per day. The applicant will pay one
and one-half (1-Y2) times the City's current utility rate. Vantage Development #39 Inc. is subject to an
administrative fee in the amount of $15,000 for each agreement. Payment has subsequently been received
in the amount of $30,000.
The term of the Water Service Agreement and Sanitary Sewer Service Agreement expires on December 31,
2007, plus any renewals and extensions thereof. However, the agreements shall automatically expire at
such time as there is no effective Industrial District Agreement between the parties or if the city exercises
the right of termination.
Staff recommends approval of the Industrial District Agreement, Water Service Agreement and Sanitary
Sewer Service Agreement as submitted herein.
Action Required bv Council:
Approve an ordinance authorizing the City to enter into an Industrial District Agreement and an ordinance
authorizing the City to execute a Water Service Agreement and Sanitary Sewer Service Agreement with
Vantage Development #39, Inc.

INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT made and entered into by and between the CITY
OF LA PORTE, TEXAS, a municipal corporation of Harris County,
Texas, hereinafter called "CITY", and VANTAGE DEVELOPMENT #39,
LLC., a Texas limited liability company, hereinafter called
"COMPANY" ,
WIT N E SSE T H:
WHEREAS, it is the established policy of the city Council of
the city of La Porte, Texas, to adopt such reasonable measures from
time to time as are permitted by law and which will tend to enhance
the economic stability and growth of the City and its environs by
attracting the location of new and the expansion of existing
industries therein, and such policy is hereby reaffirmed and
adopted by this City Council as being in the best interest of the
City and its citizens; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to its policy, City has enacted Ordinance
No. 729, designating portions of the area located in its
extraterritorial jurisdiction as the "Battleground Industrial
District of La Porte, Texas", and Ordinance No. 842A, designating
portions of the area located in its extraterritorial jurisdiction
as the "Bayport Industrial District of La Porte, Texas",
hereinafter collectively called "District", such Ordinances being
in compliance with the Municipal Annexation Act of Texas, codified
as Section 42.044, Texas Local Government Code; and
WHEREAS, Company is the owner of land within a designated
Industrial District of the City of La Porte, said land being
legally described on the attached Exhibit "A" (hereinafter "Land") ;
and said Land being more particularly shown on a plat attached as
Exhibit "B", which plat describes the ownership boundary lines; a
site layout, showing all improvements, including pipelines and
railroads, and also showing areas of the Land previously annexed by
the City of La Porte; and
WHEREAS, City desires to encourage the expansion and growth of
industrial plants within said Districts and for such purpose
desires to enter into this Agreement with Company pursuant to
Ordinance adopted by the city Council of said City and recorded in
the official minutes of said City:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
mutual agreements of the parties contained herein and pursuant to
the authority granted under the Municipal Annexation Act and the
Ordinances of City referred to above, City and Company hereby agree
with each other as follows:
FINAL DRAFT: February 24, 2000
I.
city covenants, agrees and guarantees that during the term of this
Agreement, provided below, and subject to the terms and provisions
of this Agreement, said District shall continue to retain its
extraterritorial status as an industrial district, at least to the
extent that the same covers the Land belonging to Company and its
assigns, unless and until the status of said Land, or a portion or
portions thereof, as an industrial district may be changed pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing and to
the later provisions of this Agreement, city does further covenant,
agree and guarantee that such industrial district, to the extent
that it covers said Land lying within said District and not now
within the corporate limits of City, shall be immune from
annexation by City during the term hereof (except as hereinafter
provided) and shall have no right to have extended to it any
services by City, and that all Land, including that which has been
heretofore annexed, shall not have extended to it by ordinance any
rules and regulations (a) governing plats and subdivisions of land,
(b) prescribing any building, electrical, plumbing or inspection
code or codes, or (c) attempting to exercise in any manner whatever
control over the conduct of business thereon; provided, however,
any portion of Land constituting a strip of land 100' wide and
contiguous to either Fairmont Parkway, State Highway 225, or State
Highway 146, shall be subject to the rules and regulations attached
hereto as Exhibit "C" and made a part hereof; and provided,
however, it is agreed that City shall have the right to institute
or intervene in any administrative and/or judicial proceeding
authorized by the Texas Water Code, the Texas Clean Air Act, the
Texas Health & Safety Code, or other federal or state environmental
laws, rules or regulations, to the same extent and to the same
intent and effect as if all Land covered by this Agreement were not
subject to the Agreement.
II.
In the event that any portion of the Land has heretofore been
annexed by City, Company agrees to render and pay full City ad
valorem taxes on such annexed Land and improvements, and tangible
personal property.
Under the terms of the Texas Property Tax Code (S.B. 621, Acts of
the 65th Texas LegiSlature, Regular Session, 1979, as amended), the
appraised value for tax purposes of the annexed portion of Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property shall be determined by
the Harris County Appraisal 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 II 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, such
appraiser must of necessity appraise the entire (annexed and
unannexed) Land, improvements, and tangible personal property.
2
Nothing herein contained shall ever be interpreted as lessening the
authority of the Harris County Appraisal District to establish the
appraised value of Land, improvements, and tangible personal
property in the annexed portion, for ad valorem tax purposes.
III.
A. On or before April 15, 2001, and on or before each April 15th
thereafter, unless an extension is granted in accordance with the
Texas Property Tax Code, through and including April 15, 2007,
Company shall provide City with a written description of its Land
and all improvements and tangible personal property located on the
Land as of the immediately preceding January 1st, stating its
opinion of the Property's market value, and being sworn to by an
authorized officer of the Company authorized to do so, or Company's
duly authorized agent, (the Company's "Rendition"). Company may
file such Rendition on a Harris County Appraisal District rendition
form, or similar form. The properties which the Company must
render and upon which the "in lieu of" taxes are assessed are more
fully described in subsections 1, 2, and 3 of subsection D, of this
Paragraph III (sometimes collectively called the "property") i
provided, however, pollution control equipment installed on the
Land which is exempt from ad valorem taxation pursuant to the
provisions of Sec. 11.31 of the Texas Property Tax Code is exempt
from ad valorem taxation and "in lieu of taxes" hereunder. A
failure by Company to file a Rendition as provided for in this
paragraph, shall constitute a waiver by Company for the current tax
year, of all rights of protest and appeal under the terms of this
Agreement.
B. As part of its rendition, Company shall furnish to City a
written report of the names and addresses of all persons and
entities who store any tangible personal property on the Land by
bailment, lease, consignment, or other arrangement with Company
("products in storage"), and are in the possession or under the
management of Company on January 1st of each Value Year, further
giving a description of such products in storage.
C. On or before the later of December 31, 2001, or 30 days from
mailing of tax bill and in like manner on or before each December
31st thereafter, through and including December 31, 2007, Company
shall pay to city an amount "in lieu of taxes" on Company's
Property as of January 1st of the current calendar year ("Value
Year") .
D. Company agrees to render to city and pay an amount "in lieu of
taxes" on Company's Land, improvements and tangible personal
property in the unannexed area equal to the sum of:
1. Fifty-three percent (53%) of the amount of ad valorem
taxes which would be payable to City if all of the
Company's Land and improvements which existed on January
1, 2001, and each January 1 thereafter of the applicable
Value Year during the term of this Agreement, (excluding
amounts payable pursuant to subparagraph 2, below), had
been within the corporate limits of City and appraised
3
each year by City's independent appraiser, in accordance
with the applicable provisions of the Texas Property Tax
Code; and
2. (a) On any Substantial Increase in value of the Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property
(excluding inventory) dedicated to new
construction, in excess of the appraised value of
same on January 1, 2000, resulting from new
construction (exclusive of construction in
progress, which shall be exempt from taxation), for
each Value Year following completion of
construction in progress, an amount equal to Thirty
percent (30%) of the amount of ad valorem taxes
which would be payable to City if all of said new
construction had been within the corporate limits
of city and appraised by city's independent
appraiser, in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the Texas Property Tax Code.
(b) A Substantial Increase in value of the Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property
(excluding inventory) as used in subparagraph 2(a)
above, is defined as an increase in value that is
the lesser of either:
i. at least Five percent (5%) of the total
appraised value of Land and improvements, on
January 1, 2000; or
ii. a cumulative value of at least $3,500,000.00.
For the purposes of this Agreement, multiple
projects that are completed in a Value Year can be
cumulated to arrive at the amount for the increase
in value.
(c) If existing Property values have depreciated below
the Property value established on January 1, 2000,
an amount equal to the amount of the depreciation
will be removed from the calculation under this
subparagraph 2 to restore the value to the January
1, 2000, value; and
3. Fifty-three percent (53%) of the amount of ad valorem
taxes which would be payable to City on all of the
Company's tangible personal property of every
description, located in an industrial district of City,
including, without limitation, inventory, oil, gas, and
mineral interests, items of leased equipment, railroads,
pipelines, and products in storage located on the Land,
if all of said tangible personal property which existed
on January 1, 2001, and each January 1 thereafter of the
applicable Value Year during the term of this Agreement,
had been within the corporate limits of City and
appraised each year by the city's independent appraiser,
4
in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Texas
Property Tax Code.
with the sum of 1, 2 and 3 reduced by the amount of city's ad
valorem taxes on the annexed portion thereof as determined by
appraisal by the Harris County Appraisal District.
IV.
This Agreement shall extend for a period beginning on the 1st day
of January, 2001, and continuing thereafter until December 31,
2007, unless extended for an additional period or periods of time
upon mutual consent of Company and City as provided by the
Municipal Annexation Act; provided, however, that in the event this
Agreement is not so extended for an additional period or periods of
time on or before August 31, 2007, the agreement of city not to
annex property of Company within the District shall terminate. In
that event, city shall have the right to commence immediate
annexation proceedings as to all of Company's property covered by
this Agreement, notwithstanding any of the terms and provisions of
this Agreement.
Company agrees that if the Texas Municipal Act, section 42.044,
Texas Local Government Code, is amended after January 1, 1994, or
any new legislation is thereafter enacted by the Legislature of the
state of Texas which imposes greater restrictions on the right of
City to annex land belonging to Company or imposes further
obligations on City in connection therewith after the annexation of
such land, Company will waive the right to require City to comply
with any such additional restrictions or obligations and the rights
of the parties shall be then determined in accordance with the
provisions of said Texas Municipal Annexation Act as the same
existed January 1, 1994.
V.
This Agreement may be extended for an additional period or periods
by agreement between City and Company and/or its assigns even
though it is not extended by agreement between City and all of the
owners of all land within the District of which it is a part.
VI.
A. In the event Company elects to protest the valuation for tax
purposes set on its said properties by City or by the Harris County
Appraisal District for any year or years during the terms hereof,
nothing in this Agreement shall preclude such protest and Company
shall have the right to take all legal steps desired by it to
reduce the same.
Notwithstanding such protest by Company, Company agrees to pay to
City on or before the date therefor hereinabove provided, at least
the total of (a) the total amount of ad valorem taxes on the
annexed portions, plus (b) the total amount of the "in lieu of
taxes" on the unannexed portions of Company's hereinabove described
property which would be due to City in accordance with the
5
foregoing provisions of this Agreement on the basis of renditions
which shall be filed by Company.
When the City or Harris County Appraisal District (as the case may
be) valuation on said property of Company has been so finally
determined, either as the result of final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction or as the result of other final conclusion
of the controversy, then within thirty (30) days thereafter Company
shall make paYment to City of any additional paYment due hereunder
based on such final valuation, together with applicable penalties,
interests, and costs.
B. Should Company disagree with any appraisal made by the
independent appraiser selected by City pursuant to Article II above
(which shall be given in writing to Company), Company shall, within
twenty (20) days of receiving such copy, give written notice to the
city of such disagreement. In the event Company does not give such
written notice of disagreement within such time period, the
appraisal made by said independent appraiser shall be final and
controlling for purposes of the determination of "in lieu of taxes"
paYments to be made under this Agreement.
Should Company give such notice of disagreement, Company shall also
submit to the City with such notice a written statement setting
forth what Company believes to be the market value of Company's
hereinabove described property. Both parties agree to thereupon
enter into good faith negotiations in an attempt to reach an
agreement as to the market value of Company's property for "in
lieu" purposes hereunder. If, after the expiration of thirty (30)
days from the date the notice of disagreement was received by City,
the parties have not reached agreement as to such market value, the
parties agree to submit the dispute to final arbitration as
provided in subparagraph 1 of this Article VI B. Notwithstanding
any such disagreement by Company, Company agrees to pay to City on
or before December 31 of each year during the term hereof, at least
the total of (a) the ad valorem taxes on the annexed portions, plus
(b) the total amount of the "in lieu" paYments which would be due
hereunder on the basis of Company's valuations rendered and/or
submitted to City by Company hereunder, or the total assessment and
"in lieu of taxes" thereon for the last preceding year, whichever
is higher.
1. A Board of Arbitrators shall be created composed of one
person named by Company, one by city, and a third to be
named by those two. In case of no agreement on this
arbitrator in 10 days, the parties will join in a written
request that the Chief Judge of the u.S. District Court
for the Southern District of Texas appoint the third
arbitrator who, (as the "Impartial Arbitrator") shall
preside over the arbitration proceeding. The sole issue
to be determined in the arbitration shall be resolution
of the difference between the parties as to the fair
market value of Company's property for calculation of the
"in lieu" paYment and total paYment hereunder for the
year in question. The Board shall hear and consider all
relevant and material evidence on that issue including
6
expert oplnlon, and shall render its written decision as
promptly as practicable. That decision shall then be
final and binding upon the parties, subject only to
judicial review as may be available under the Texas
General Arbitration Act (Chapter 171, "General
Arbitration", Texas civil Practice and Remedies Code).
Costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally by the
Company and the city, provided that each party shall bear
its own attorneys fees.
VII.
city shall be entitled to a tax lien on company's above described
property, all improvements thereon, and all tangible personal
property thereon, in the event of default in paYment of "in lieu of
taxes" paYments hereunder, which shall accrue penalty and interest
in like manner as delinquent taxes, and which shall be collectible
by City in the same manner as provided by law for delinquent taxes.
VIII.
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
City and Company, and upon Company's successors and assigns,
affiliates and subsidiaries, and shall remain in force whether
Company sells, assigns, or in any other manner disposes of, either
voluntarily or by operation of law, all or any part of the property
belonging to it within the territory hereinabove described, and the
agreements herein contained shall be held to be covenants running
with the land owned by Company situated within said territory, for
so long as this Agreement or any extension thereof remains in
force. Company shall give City written notice within ninety (90)
days, with full particulars as to property assigned and identity of
assignee, of any disposition of the Land, and assignment of this
Agreement.
IX.
If city enters into an Agreement with any other landowner with
respect to an industrial district or enters into a renewal of any
existing industrial district agreements after the effective date
hereof and while this Agreement is in effect, which contains terms
and provisions more favorable to the landowner than those in this
Agreement, Company and its assigns shall have the right to amend
this Agreement and City agrees to amend same to embrace the more
favorable terms of such agreement or renewal agreement.
X.
The parties agree that this Agreement complies with existing laws
pertaining to the subject and that all terms, considerations and
conditions set forth herein are lawful, reasonable, appropriate,
and not unduly restrictive of Company's business activities.
without such agreement neither party hereto would enter into this
Agreement. In the event anyone or more words, phrases, clauses,
sentences, paragraphs, sections, articles or other parts of this
Agreement or the application thereof to any person, firm,
7
corporation or circumstances shall be held by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unconstitutional for any
reason, then the application, invalidity or unconstitutionality of
such words, phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph, section, article
or other part of the Agreement shall be deemed to be independent of
and separable from the remainder of this Agreement and the validity
of the remaining parts of this Agreement shall not be affected
thereby.
XI.
Upon the commencement of the term of this Agreement, all other
previously existing industrial district agreements with respect to
said Land shall terminate.
ENTERED INTO effective the 1st day of January, 2001.

INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT made and entered into by and between the CITY
OF LA PORTE, TEXAS, a municipal corporation of Harris County,
Texas, hereinafter called "CITY", and VANTAGE DEVELOPMENT #39,
LLC., a Texas limited liability company, hereinafter called
"COMPANY" ,
WIT N E SSE T H:
WHEREAS, it is the established policy of the City Council of
the City of La Porte, Texas, to adopt such reasonable measures from
time to time as are permitted by law and which will tend to enhance
the economic stability and growth of the City and its environs by
attracting the location of new and the expansion of existing
industries therein, and such policy is hereby reaffirmed and
adopted by this City Council as being in the best interest of the
City and its citizens; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to its policy, City has enacted Ordinance
No. 729, designating portions of the area located in its
extraterritorial jurisdiction as the "Battleground Industrial
District of La Porte, Texas", and Ordinance No. 842A, designating
portions of the area located in its extraterritorial jurisdiction
as the "Bayport Industrial District of La Porte, Texas",
hereinafter collectively called "District", such Ordinances being
in compliance with the Municipal Annexation Act of Texas, codified
as Section 42.044, Texas Local Government Code; and
WHEREAS, Company is the owner of land within a designated
Industrial District of the City of La Porte, said land being
legally described on the attached Exhibit "A" (hereinafter "Land") ;
and said Land being more particularly shown on a plat attached as
Exhibit "B", which plat describes the ownership boundary lines; a
site layout, showing all improvements, including pipelines and
railroads, and also showing areas of the Land previously annexed by
the City of La Porte; and
WHEREAS, City desires to encourage the expansion and growth of
industrial plants within said Districts and for such purpose
desires to enter into this Agreement with Company pursuant to
Ordinance adopted by the City Council of said City and recorded in
the official minutes of said City:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the
mutual agreements of the parties contained herein and pursuant to
the authority granted under the Municipal Annexation Act and the
Ordinances of City referred to above, City and Company hereby agree
with each other as follows:
FINAL DRAFT: February 24, 2000
I.
City covenants, agrees and guarantees that during the term of this
Agreement, provided below, and subject to the terms and provisions
of this Agreement, said District shall continue to retain its
extraterritorial status as an industrial district, at least to the
extent that the same covers the Land belonging to Company and its
assigns, unless and until the status of said Land, or a portion or
portions thereof, as an industrial district may be changed pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing and to
the later provisions of this Agreement, City does further covenant,
agree and guarantee that such industrial district, to the extent
that it covers said Land lying within said District and not now
within the corporate limits of City, shall be immune from
annexation by City during the term hereof (except as hereinafter
provided) and shall have no right to have extended to it any
services by City, and that all Land, including that which has been
heretofore annexed, shall not have extended to it by ordinance any
rules and regulations (a) governing plats and subdivisions of land,
(b) prescribing any building, electrical, plumbing or inspection
code or codes, or (c) attempting to exercise in any manner whatever
control over the conduct of business thereon; provided, however,
any portion of Land constituting a strip of land 100' wide and
contiguous to either Fairmont Parkway, State Highway 225, or State
Highway 146, shall be subject to the rules and regulations attached
hereto as Exhibit" C" and made a part hereof; and provided,
however, it is agreed that City shall have the right to institute
or intervene in any administrative and/or judicial proceeding
authorized by the Texas Water Code, the Texas Clean Air Act, the
Texas Health & Safety Code, or other federal or state environmental
laws, rules or regulations, to the same extent and to the same
intent and effect as if all Land covered by this Agreement were not
subject to the Agreement.
II.
In the event that any portion of the Land has heretofore been
annexed by City, Company agrees to render and pay full City ad
valorem taxes on such annexed Land and improvements, and tangible
personal property.
Under the terms of the Texas Property Tax Code (S.B. 621, Acts of
the 65th Texas Legislature, Regular Session, 1979, as amended), the
appraised value for tax purposes of the annexed portion of Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property shall be determined by
the Harris County Appraisal 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, such
appraiser must of necessity appraise the entire (annexed and
unannexed) Land, improvements, and tangible personal property.
2
Nothing herein contained shall ever be interpreted as lessening the
authority of the Harris County Appraisal District to establish the
appraised value of Land, improvements, and tangible personal
property in the annexed portion, for ad valorem tax purposes.
III.
A. On or before April 15, 2001, and on or before each April 15th
thereafter, unless an extension is granted in accordance with the
Texas Property Tax Code, through and including April 15, 2007,
Company shall provide City with a written description of its Land
and all improvements and tangible personal property located on the
Land as of the immediately preceding January 1st, stating its
opinion of the Property's market value, and being sworn to by an
authorized officer of the Company authorized to do so, or Company's
duly authorized agent, (the Company's "Rendition"). Company may
file such Rendition on a Harris County Appraisal District rendition
form, or similar form. The properties which the Company must
render and upon which the "in lieu of" taxes are assessed are more
fully described in subsections 1, 2, and 3 of subsection D, of this
Paragraph III (sometimes collectively called the "Property") i
provided, however, pollution control equipment installed on the
Land which is exempt from ad valorem taxation pursuant to the
provisions of Sec. 11.31 of the Texas Property Tax Code is exempt
from ad valorem taxation and "in lieu of taxes" hereunder. A
failure by Company to file a Rendition as provided for in this
paragraph, shall constitute a waiver by Company for the current tax
year, of all rights of protest and appeal under the terms of this
Agreement.
B. As part of its rendition, Company shall furnish to City a
written report of the names and addresses of all persons and
entities who store any tangible personal property on the Land by
bailment, lease, consignment, or other arrangement with Company
("products in storage"), and are in the possession or under the
management of Company on January 1st of each Value Year, further
giving a description of such products in storage.
C. On or before the later of December 31, 2001, or 30 days from
mailing of tax bill and in like manner on or before each December
31st thereafter, through and including December 31, 2007, Company
shall pay to City an amount "in lieu of taxes" on Company's
Property as of January 1st of the current calendar year ("Value
Year") .
D. Company agrees to render to City and pay an amount "in lieu of
taxes" on Company's Land, improvements and tangible personal
property in the unannexed area equal to the sum of:
1. Fifty-three percent (53%) of the amount of ad valorem
taxes which would be payable to City if all of the
Company's Land and improvements which existed on January
1, 2001, and each January 1 thereafter of the applicable
Value Year during the term of this Agreement, (excluding
amounts payable pursuant to subparagraph 2, below), had
been within the corporate limits of City and appraised
3
each year by City's independent appraiser, in accordance
with the applicable provisions of the Texas Property Tax
Code; and
2. (a) On any Substantial Increase in value of the Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property
(excluding inventory) dedicated to new
construction, in excess of the appraised value of
same on January 1, 2000, resulting from new
construction (exclusive of construction in
progress, which shall be exempt from taxation), for
each Value Year following completion of
construction in progress, an amount equal to Thirty
percent (30 %) of the amount of ad valorem taxes
which would be payable to City if all of said new
construction had been within the corporate limits
of City and appraised by City's independent
appraiser, in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the Texas Property Tax Code.
(b) A Substantial Increase in value of the Land,
improvements, and tangible personal property
(excluding inventory) as used in subparagraph 2(a)
above, is defined as an increase in value that is
the lesser of either:
i. at least Five percent (5%) of the total
appraised value of Land and improvements, on
January 1, 2000; or
ii. a cumulative value of at least $3,500,000.00.
For the purposes of this Agreement, multiple
projects that are completed in a Value Year can be
cumulated to arrive at the amount for the increase
in value.
(c) If existing Property values have depreciated below
the Property value established on January 1, 2000,
an amount equal to the amount of the depreciation
will be removed from the calculation under this
subparagraph 2 to restore the value to the January
1, 2000, value; and
3. Fifty-three percent (53%) of the amount of ad valorem
taxes which would be payable to City on all of the
Company's tangible personal property of every
description, located in an industrial district of City,
including, without limitation, inventory, oil, gas, and
mineral interests, items of leased equipment, railroads,
pipelines, and products in storage located on the Land,
if all of said tangible personal property which existed
on January 1, 2001, and each January 1 thereafter of the
applicable Value Year during the term of this Agreement,
had been within the corporate limits of City and
appraised each year by the City's independent appraiser,
4
in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Texas
Property Tax Code.
with the sum of 1, 2 and 3 reduced by the amount of City's ad
valorem taxes on the annexed portion thereof as determined by
appraisal by the Harris County Appraisal District.
IV.
This Agreement shall extend for a period beginning on the 1st day
of January, 2001, and continuing thereafter until December 31,
2007, unless extended for an additional period or periods of time
upon mutual consent of Company and City as provided by the
Municipal Annexation Act; provided, however, that in the event this
Agreement is not so extended for an additional period or periods of
time on or before August 31, 2007, the agreement of City not to
annex property of Company within the District shall terminate. In
that event, City shall have the right to commence immediate
annexation proceedings as to all of Company's property covered by
this Agreement, notwithstanding any of the terms and provisions of
this Agreement.
Company agrees that if the Texas Municipal Act, Section 42.044,
Texas Local Government Code, is amended after January 1, 1994, or
any new legislation is thereafter enacted by the Legislature of the
State of Texas which imposes greater restrictions on the right of
City to annex land belonging to Company or imposes further
obligations on City in connection therewith after the annexation of
such land, Company will waive the right to require City to comply
with any such additional restrictions or obligations and the rights
of the parties shall be then determined in accordance with the
provisions of said Texas Municipal Annexation Act as the same
existed January 1, 1994.
V.
This Agreement may be extended for an additional period or periods
by agreement between City and Company and/or its assigns even
though it is not extended by agreement between City and all of the
owners of all land within the District of which it is a part.
VI.
A. In the event Company elects to protest the valuation for tax
purposes set on its said properties by City or by the Harris County
Appraisal District for any year or years during the terms hereof,
nothing in this Agreement shall preclude such protest and Company
shall have the right to take all legal steps desired by it to
reduce the same.
Notwithstanding such protest by Company, Company agrees to pay to
City on or before the date therefor hereinabove provided, at least
the total of (a) the total amount of ad valorem taxes on the
annexed portions, plus (b) the total amount of the "in lieu of
taxes" on the unannexed portions of Company's hereinabove described
property which would be due to City in accordance with the
5
foregoing provisions of this Agreement on the basis of renditions
which shall be filed by Company.
When the City or Harris County Appraisal District (as the case may
be) valuation on said property of Company has been so finally
determined, either as the result of final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction or as the result of other final conclusion
of the controversy, then within thirty (30) days thereafter Company
shall make paYment to City of any additional paYment due hereunder
based on such final valuation, together with applicable penalties,
interests, and costs.
B. Should Company disagree with any appraisal made by the
independent appraiser selected by City pursuant to Article II above
(which shall be given in writing to Company), Company shall, within
twenty (20) days of receiving such copy, give written notice to the
City of such disagreement. In the event Company does not give such
written notice of disagreement within such time period, the
appraisal made by said independent appraiser shall be final and
controlling for purposes of the determination of "in lieu of taxes"
paYments to be made under this Agreement.
Should Company give such notice of disagreement, Company shall also
submit to the City with such notice a written statement setting
forth what Company believes to be the market value of Company's
hereinabove described property. Both parties agree to thereupon
enter into good faith negotiations in an attempt to reach an
agreement as to the market value of Company's property for "in
lieu" purposes hereunder. If, after the expiration of thirty (30)
days from the date the notice of disagreement was received by City,
the parties have not reached agreement as to such market value, the
parties agree to submit the dispute to final arbitration as
provided in subparagraph 1 of this Article VI B. Notwithstanding
any such disagreement by Company, Company agrees to pay to City on
or before December 31 of each year during the term hereof, at least
the total of (a) the ad valorem taxes on the annexed portions, plus
(b) the total amount of the "in lieu" paYments which would be due
hereunder on the basis of Company's valuations rendered and/or
submitted to City by Company hereunder, or the total assessment and
"in lieu of taxes" thereon for the last preceding year, whichever
is higher.
1. A Board of Arbitrators shall be created composed of one
person named by Company, one by City, and a third to be
named by those two. In case of no agreement on this
arbitrator in 10 days, the parties will join in a written
request that the Chief Judge of the u.S. District Court
for the Southern District of Texas appoint the third
arbitrator who, (as the "Impartial Arbitrator") shall
preside over the arbitration proceeding. The sole issue
to be determined in the arbitration shall be resolution
of the difference between the parties as to the fair
market value of Company's property for calculation of the
"in lieu" paYment and total paYment hereunder for the
year in question. The Board shall hear and consider all
relevant and material evidence on that issue including
6
expert op1n10n, and shall render its written decision as
promptly as practicable. That decision shall then be
final and binding upon the parties, subj ect only to
judicial review as may be available under the Texas
General Arbitration Act (Chapter 171, "General
Arbitration", Texas civil Practice and Remedies Code).
Costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally by the
Company and the city, provided that each party shall bear
its own attorneys fees.
VII.
City shall be entitled to a tax lien on Company's above described
property, all improvements thereon, and all tangible personal
property thereon, in the event of default in paYment of "in lieu of
taxes" paYments hereunder, which shall accrue penalty and interest
in like manner as delinquent taxes, and which shall be collectible
by City in the same manner as provided by law for delinquent taxes.
VIII.
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
City and Company, and upon Company's successors and assigns,
affiliates and subsidiaries, and shall remain in force whether
Company sells, assigns, or in any other manner disposes of, either
voluntarily or by operation of law, all or any part of the property
belonging to it within the territory hereinabove described, and the
agreements herein contained shall be held to be covenants running
with the land owned by Company situated within said territory, for
so long as this Agreement or any extension thereof remains in
force. Company shall give City written notice within ninety (90)
days, with full particulars as to property assigned and identity of
assignee, of any disposition of the Land, and assignment of this
Agreement.
IX.
If City enters into an Agreement with any other landowner with
respect to an industrial district or enters into a renewal of any
existing industrial district agreements after the effective date
hereof and while this Agreement is in effect, which contains terms
and provisions more favorable to the landowner than those in this
Agreement, Company and its assigns shall have the right to amend
this Agreement and City agrees to amend same to embrace the more
favorable terms of such agreement or renewal agreement.
X.
The parties agree that this Agreement complies with existing laws
pertaining to the subject and that all terms, considerations and
conditions set forth herein are lawful, reasonable, appropriate,
and not unduly restrictive of Company's business activities.
Without such agreement neither party hereto would enter into this
Agreement. In the event anyone or more words, phrases, clauses,
sentences, paragraphs, sections, articles or other parts of this
Agreement or the application thereof to any person, firm,
7
corporation or circumstances shall be held by any court of
competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unconstitutional for any
reason, then the application, invalidity or unconstitutionality of
such words, phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph, section, article
or other part of the Agreement shall be deemed to be independent of
and separable from the remainder of this Agreement and the validity
of the remaining parts of this Agreement shall not be affected
thereby.
XI.
Upon the commencement of the term of this Agreement, all other
previously existing industrial district agreements with respect to
said Land shall terminate.
ENTERED INTO effective the 1st day of January, 2001.

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
CJCD Partners, Ltd. (Valsource International, LLC, Lessee) has approached the City for water and sanitary
sewer service to the company's proposed site in Bayport North Industrial Park.
Council has approved a policy to provide water and sanitary sewer service to companies located outside the
city limits and within the City's industrial districts. These companies are required by the policy to execute
and maintain an Industrial District Agreement with the City. CJCD Partners, Ltd. (Valsource Intemational,
LLC, Lessee) desires to acquire water and sanitary sewer service under the terms of this policy.
Based on the company's stated demand for domestic and industrial process uses, the average daily

includes utilization of water for the building's fire sprinkler system and landscape irrigation. The applicant
will pay one and one-half (1-%) times the City's current utility rate. Additionally, CJCD Partners, Ltd.
(Valsource International, LLC, Lessee) is subject to an administrative fee for its Water Service and Sanitary
Sewer Service Agreements of $5,000 each. Payment has subsequently been received from the company in
the amount of $10,000.
The terms of the IDA, WSA and SSSA expire on December 31, 2007, plus any renewals and extensions
thereof. However, the agreements shall automatically expire at such time as there is no effective IDA
between the parties or, if the city exercises the right of termination.
Staff recommends approval of an Industrial District Agreement, Water Service Agreement and Sanitary
Sewer Service Agreement as submitted herein.
Action Reauired bv Council:
Approve an ordinance authorizing the City to enter into an Industrial District Agreement and an ordinance
authorizing the City to execute a Water Service Agreement and Sanitary Sewer Service Agreement with

Polling Locations
FROM:
SUBJECT:
The use of the schools for polling locations continues to raise numerous concerns from staff,
Election Judges, school district and most importantly citizens.
Outlined below are the continued concerns:
There is often conflict with sport events and parking spots for voters.
Due to sport events we have lost voters who could not find a spot to park.
The location within the school often changes and we have lost voters due to frustration in
looking for the voting area.
Judges report the building facilities are inadequate due to air conditioning, phones, copy
machine, etc. They often experience no tables and chairs being set up.
Construction work is often done at the schools during run-off elections and this presents a
safety concern to the voters. Baker Sixth Grade campus was very dangerous and unsightly
during the run-off elections. Voters made numerous complaints.
A voter complained about the restrooms at Baker school because they were filthy, smelly
and the toilets had been used and not flushed.
It is impossible to be in two locations so spread apart when an emergency arises. This past
run-off election the judge at district 6 could not get the voting machine to open and we had
people setting up tents and blocking the voting entrance at district 5. There was a 20
minute delay due to having to be at 2 places at once.
Judge Davis reported she received NUMERUOUS complaints about the voting location
Page 2
and had voters asking her why we didn't vote at City Hall like early voting.
Judge Trainer reported she has had citizens ask why we don't hold City elections at City
Hall.
They have indicated it would cause less confusion to the voter if everything was handled at
City Hall.
When the County needs to be contacted, the judge has to leave the polling location and go
outside for her cell phone to work to call City Hall for assistance in qualifying a voter.
It delays central counting on election night due to the travel time from the polling locations
to City Hall.
The Juneteenth parade, festivities and the parade traffic and street closures prohibit voters
from getting to the polling locations during run-off elections.
The judges have to carry heavy equipment and tubs to and from there car. One of the
judges fell run-off election evening trying to carry the heavy box. We have been fortunate
no injuries have occurred.
Staff makes numerous trips to the polling locations on election day due to needs from the
judges.
Staff and the election judges are requesting Council consider changing the polling locations away
from schools and use City buildings. This will allow us to control what is happening at the
facilities during elections.
Attached please fmd statistics for the past three elections. This indicates the volume of early
voters while conducting voting at City Hall.
Please be reminded the City Attorney will need to preclear any changes in polling locations with
the Justice Department. The period for that is from the 124th day thru the 99th day prior to the
election. For the 2007 election those dates were January 8 thru February 2, 2007.

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
The Dangerous Building Inspection Board, created by Article VIII; Section 82-472 of the City's Code of
Ordinances, is comprised of Debbie Wilmore, Chief Building Official; Mike Boaze, Fire Chief and Clif
Meekins, Fire Marshal. The Board recently completed inspections on fifteen (15) structures and found
them to be "dangerous! substandard" as described in Sect. 82-473.
You will note the packet actually includes seventeen (17) locations. However, please note that staff
prepared inspection forms on stmctures identified by the Board and not on the two (2) city owned buildings
(1516 Lomax School Rd - Old FS #3 and 10215 Hillridge Rd - Old FS #21storage building) that were
added for demolition bid purposes only. Since the city wishes to demolish these two structures, we simply
included them with our group and included exterior shots for identification purposes.
Staff's presentation will include photos on all seventeen (17) structures but since we began the project,
some owner's have approached staff. Two have obtained demolition permits and one plans to start repairs.
See attached list for specifics.
Council is asked to review the Board's findings and authorize a public hearing for the purpose of possible
condemnation and ordering demolition of these structures. A public hearing date of July 23, 2007 is
requested.
On June 7,2007, the Accounting Department confirmed the $56,230.00 fund balance in account #001-
9092-524-6021. Staff expects to advertise and receive demolition bids in August. We plan to return to
Council in September to award the demolition contract.
Action Required bv Council:
1. Review findings of the Dangerous Building Inspection Board
2. Authorize a public hearing date for the stmctures

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
At the June 11 City Council meeting Council asked staff to secure additional information regarding HE 2365 (now
signed by the Governor and effective immediately) and GASB 45. More specifically Council asked for information
on the potential effect on bond ratings if Cities do not perform the actuarial studies and report according to GASB
45 standards.
Attached are these emails;
. Two from Clark Askins after a similar question was raised at the last Chapter 172 meeting
. One from Phyllis Rinehart noting her conversation with the City's current auditor, Null-Lairson
We have contacted our Financial Advisor and asked if they could determine how the bond rating agencies would
respond if a city elected not to follow GASB 45. As of this writing we do not have any input from the Financial
Advisor.
We have invited both the City's Auditing Firm and Financial Advisors to attend the June 25 workshop.
As directed at the June II meeting, the two items tabled are returned for consideration.
Action Required bv Council:
Consider approval of the agenda items tabled at the June 11,2007 City Council meeting.

Subject: GASB 45
Folks:
In light ofthe question raised at last night's Chapter 172 meeting regarding GASB 45, I reviewed HB
2365, which at this point is on the governor's desk for signature. Under this bill, both the State and
political subdivisions of the state may, if they choose, opt out of GASB 45 accounting requirements. In
the words of an article I found, "The bill establishes a 'statutory modified accrual basis' of accounting
that 'recognizes revenue when it is measurable and available to finance current expenditures and
recognizes expenditures when they are normally expected to be liquidated...' The bill specifically
addresses accounting for other postemployment benefits by providing 'To the extent that generally
accepted accounting principles require accounting or reporting of other postemployment benefits at the
government-wide or fund level on any basis other than pay-as-you-go, this state and its political
subdivisions may account for or report those other postemployment benefits in accordance with the
statutory accounting principles in this chapter.'
In other words, this bill would allow the City to follow pay-as-you-go accounting principles laid out in
the new law, in lieu of following the GASB 45 regulations. Therefore, assuming this bill becomes law, it
is my opinion that the City of La Porte could choose to bypass GASB 45 and stick with pay-as-you-go.
However, as has been pointed out, this would come at the possible expense of our bond rating,
depending on the approach outside auditors, accountants, etc. take the absence of GASB 45
information. (On this note, I would mention that the bill allows an entity that opts out of GASB 45 to
nonetheless indicate the value of its non-pension retiree obligations (health, life, dental) as a footnote, on
its financial statements.
The Texas Attorney General had previously opined that the State is not legally compelled to follow
GASB 45. It is not mandated by Congress on the states, nor does GASB have independent powers of
enforcement. This being the case it looks like the Legislature took a rather bold move, and one that may
be followed by other states.

Subject: response from auditor
Mr. Joems,
Here are my notes from a telephone conversation with Tom Pedersen with Null-Lairson:
City can have the actuarial study done. GASB 45 does not require the City to fund the liability. What
will be reported in the audit report as a liability in the government wide financial statements will be the
difference between the actuarial annual required contribution and any amounts paid in the current year.
This amount will be reported in the government wide financial statements as a liability. No GASB 45
liabilities will be reported on the fund financial statements. The city will most likely then be issued an
unqualified opinion.
If the city chooses not to have the study done as permitted by State law, then it should follow the rules
as set forth by the state comptroller once the law has been passed and the comptroller has established
rules. If the city follows the rules promulgated by the Comptroller's Office, then the auditors may issue
an unqualified opinion on the financial statements prepared on a regulatory basis of accounting. The
opinion would include a paragraph which explains that the financial statements were not prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. If the City chooses this option and does not
follow the rules established by the Comptroller's Office, the auditor's would have to issue either an
adverse or qualified opinion.
If the City chooses not to implement GASB 45, then there is not any certainty how the City's bond
ratings will be affected (if any) or how the city' participation in the GFOA certification program will be
affected.
Tom Pedersen and Chris Breaux are available for questions and can ::I1so attend the city council if

MASTER AGREEMENT
Pursuant to the award of Joint Actuarial Services by the North Central Texas Council of
Governments (NCTCOG), this agreement confirms the terms under which the City of La
Porte hereinafter referred to as 'CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT" has engaged
Gabriel, Roeder, Smith & Co. hereinafter referred to as "GRS" to perform actuarial
consulting services. In as much as this relationship will involve several actuarial reviews
and other services that will be governed by the Request for Proposal issued by NCTCOG
on May 31, 2006 and our subsequent response to that proposal, we have agreed to
establish this "master agreement" defining the general terms and conditions for all work
performed.
This agreement will not, by itself, authorize the performance of any services. Rather
specific services will be authorized through a separate engagement letter that references
this master agreement and details the services to be provided and the timeframe and fees
required. In the event of an inconsistency between this master agreement and an
individual engagement letter, the master agreement will be followed.
As described in the above referenced Request for Proposal the following terms apply:
A. Tax Exempt Entities. CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT is exempt from
manufacturer's federal excise tax and states sales tax. Tax exemption certificates
will be issued upon request.
B. Role of NCTCOG. NCTCOG has served as a facilitator to the RFP and award
process but the contractual relationship is between GRS and the CONTRACTING
GOVERNMENT.
C. A22re2ate Information. GRS agrees to supply NCTCOG with the specified
results from the valuations and to aggregate that information with that of other
governments for the purpose of benchmarking.
D. Fees. GRS agrees to follow the attached pricing schedule ("Attachment A") for
pricing of its services.
1. Review of Char2es. CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT has the right to review
the supporting documentation for any hourly charges or out of pocket expenses
assessed to the CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT under the fee schedule.
J. Termination. Both CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT and GRS will have the
right to terminate this agreement through written notice. CONTRACTING
GOVERNMENT will pay any charges or prorate fees incurred to the date the
termination notice is received and actuary will cease any in progress work unless
specific stopping points are provided in the letter.
K. Work Product. The final work product will be the property of the
CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT to be used as stated in the specific engagement
letter. Ancillary use of the product is permitted but GRS is not responsible for the
reliability of those projections. It is understood that all reports are subject to the
open records laws of the State of Texas and the contracting jurisdiction.
L. Independent Contractor. All the services provided by GRS will be as an
independent contractor. None of the terms in the engagement letter will be
interpreted to create an agency or employment relationship.
M. Biennial Reviews. CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT agrees to provide census
data in off years using the same cut off date and delivery dates as used for the year
of review. Actuary agrees to review the off year census data and provide
CONTRACTING GOVERNMENT with timely feedback regarding deficiencies in
the data.
