SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
HSC Pipeline Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, has filed application with the City to install
an 8" and a 6" Liquefied Petroleum Gas Pipeline. The pipeline will be used to transport liquefied petroleum
gases from an existing pipeline in the Pasadena Refinery area to an existing pipeline in La Porte north of SH
225.
The route through the City of La Porte is shown on Exhibit "0" of this agenda packet and described in the
permit application form (see Exhibit "B"). The 8" pipeline starts at an existing valve site in the Pasadena
Refinery area and runs to a surface site in La Porte. The 6" pipeline exits the surface site and ties into an
existing pipeline south of Union Pacific in La Porte. The 8" and 6" pipelines will be installed within an
existing pipeline corridor as well as easements secured from Centerpoint Energy throughout the entire
route. Directional boring will be utilized crossing Big Island Slough (8106-00-00) to a depth of 21.2' under
the existing flow line of the channel and 7.0' under the channel's ultimate flow line. Old Underwood Road
and Old La Porte Road will be the only publiC streets in La Porte that will be crossed. The 8" pipeline will
operate at a maximum operating pressure of 1480 PSI, will be tested to a minimum 2220 PSI, and have a
minimum yield strength of 52,000 PSI. The 6" pipeline will operate at a maximum pressure of 1440 PSI, will
be tested to a minimum 2180 PSI, and have a minimum yield strength of 42,000 PSI.
In reviewing the permit application and plans as submitted, Staff has determined no conflict is anticipated
with existing City infrastructure or existing pipelines. This request meets all requirements of Ordinance
2004-2755 and the pipeline application fee of $1000.00 has been paid. Any future relocation of the pipeline
permitted within the City, State or County rights-of-way shall be at the sole expense of the Permittee. In
accordance with Section 102-236 and 102-237, City Council must review and approve the permit
application. If approved, City Council will thereby authorize the Director of Planning or his designee to
execute the permit in duplicate originals, one which shall be delivered to the Permittee and one which shall
be retained by the City.

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
Gulf Central Aviation currently leases 3.6065 acres at the La Porte Municipal Airport and operates a
Fixed Base Operation (FBO) at the site. The current lease began on January 1, 1993 and is due to expire
on December 3 1, 2013. Gulf Central owners have agreed to sell the assets of the corporation to La Porte
Flight Line, L.L.C. La Porte Flight Line has requested a new, twenty (20) year lease, with two (2) five (5)
year options to operate an FBO on the same site. The lease period will begin on January 1, 2008 and run
through December 31,2027. Additionally, La Porte Flight Line has requested a five (5) year option, with
right of first refusal, on an adjacent 2.057 acre tract for possible future development.
The lease rate, beginning on January 1,2008 is $1,820.25 per acre per year, which would result in a first-
year rental rate of $6,564.73 for the 3.6065 acres. This is the identical rate per acre charged to all FBO's
at the Airport. Annual cost-of-living adjustments based on the CPI-U are included in the lease, as in all
FBO leases.
In accordance with the Standard Minimum Requirements for Airport Aeronautical Services at the La
Porte Municipal Airport, La Porte Flight Line has submitted a letter requesting the lease, evidence of its
ability to operate an FBO and the required $500 application fee. La Porte Flight Line meets all the
requirements ofthe FBO Standards.
Due to the volume of information, a copy of the submissions, as well as a signed copy of the Agreement
for Purchase and Sale of Certain Assets of Gulf Central Aviation, Inc. is available for review in the City
Secretary's Office.

ARTICLE II - LEASED PREMISES AND FACILITIES
1. The Lessor, in consideration of the compensation and sundry
covenants and agreements set forth herein to be kept and performed
by the Lessee, does hereby, and by these presents, demise and lease
unto the Lessee, upon the conditions hereinafter set forth, all of
which the Lessee accepts, the exclusive use and occupancy of the
Leased Premises, to-wit:
Property at La Porte Municipal Airport, consisting of
3.6065 acres, more or less, identified as "Fixed Base
Operator Area" on Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a

order to maintain such property in a usable condition.

shall provide reasonable rental rates, consistent with industry

this Agreement, the parties recognize and agree that Lessee is not
herewith given and shall not exercise exclusive control over the
ramp area not specifically leased under this Agreementj and that
the public shall have the right, at all time, to ingress and
egress, over and through said area, as reasonably necessary for the
use by the public of airport facilities at La Porte Municipal
Airport.

Premises the following:
A. All gas, oil and mineral rights in and under the soil.
B. The right to grant utility rights-of-ways to others over,
under, through, across or on the Leased Premises,
provided that such use will not unreasonably or
materially interfere with the Lessee's use of the Leased
Premises.
ARTICLE III - RENTALS AND CHARGES
1. For the Leased Premises, as described in Article II, the basic
ground rental calculated for an index value of 100.0 is Eight
Hundred Seventy-one and 20/100 Dollars ($871.20) per acre per year.
The actual rentals for the Leased Premises, to be paid to the
Lessor by the Lessee, shall be determined by multiplying said basic
rentals specified under paragraph 1 above by the index value
determined for successive calendar years in the manner herein set
forth.
The index value for the calculation of actual rental rates shall be
based on the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, using as
base year 1982-84 = 100, published by the Bureau of Labor
statistics of the united States Department of Labor, and shall be
calculated as follows:
2
A. The index for any particular lease year shall be the
index for the month of October of the calendar year next
preceding the year for which the calculation is made.
The index for October, 2007, is 208.936, resulting in an
annual rental rate of One Thousand Eight Hundred Twenty
and 25/100 Dollars ($1,820.25) per acre for the lease
year beginning January I, 2008. This rate results in a
total 2008 lease year ground rental for the Leased
Premises of six Thousand Five Hundred Sixty-four and
73/100 Dollars ($6,564.73).
B. The actual rental rate shall be determined prior to
January 1st of each lease year and shall be effective for
that lease year.
C. In the event that the united states Department of Labor
discontinues publication of the above index or data from
which the index can be directly computed, or if the
method for the determination of such index is
substantially different than that existing at the time
this Agreement and Lease is executed, the basis for the
rental rate adjustment shall be the most closely
comparable index published by the u.s. Government.
2. The parties recognize that Lessee shall lease to tenants,
facilities for the storage and/or tie-down of aircraft within
leased properties described as "Designated Use Area" on Exhibit
"A" . The Lessee shall have the right to provide additional T-
Hangar or tie-down facilities on the property leased herein, but
any such additional facility shall only be provided after specific
written authorization from the Lessor. Additional facilities shall

shall be hardsurfaced rather than grass areas. The parties further
agree that no aircraft will be tied-down on grass surface areas
within Lessee's leased premises after the year 1994.
3 . The rental above provided for during the term of this
Agreement and Lease shall be paid monthly, in sum equal to 1/12 of
the annual rental due hereunder, in advance on the first day of
each and every month. In the event that this Agreement and Lease
commences or terminates other than on the first or last day of the
month, pro-rata payments shall be made for the fractional part of
a month involved.

pay, all rentals due under this Agreement and Lease to the City of
La Porte, La Porte Municipal Airport, La Porte, Texas, without
notice to the Lessee. Rentals more than thirty (30) days past due

5. without prejudice to any other remedy which otherwise might be
used for arrears of rent or other breach of this Agreement, if the
Lessor is required or it elects to pay any sum or incurs any
obligations or expense, by reason of a failure, neglect or refusal
of the Lessee to perform anyone or more of the terms, conditions
or covenants of this Agreement and Lease or as the result of any
3
act or omission of Lessee contrary to said terms, conditions and
covenants, the sum or sums so paid or the expense so incurred,
including all interest, costs, damages and penalties may be added
to any installment of rent thereafter due hereunder and each and

1
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:
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"
2
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.
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. The properties upon which the "in lieu of" taxes are assessed
are more fully described in subsections 1, 2, and 3 of subsection
C, of this Paragraph III (sometimes collectively called the
"Property"); 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. Property included in this Agreement shall not be
entitled to an agricultural use exemption for purposes of
computing uin lieu of taxes" hereunder.
B. On or before the later of December 31, 2008, or 30 days from
mailing of tax bill and in like manner on or before each December
31st thereafter, through and including December 31, 2019, Company
shall pay to City an amount of uin lieu of taxes" on Company's
Property as of January 1st of the current calendar year ("Value

of the Texas Property Tax Code.

provisions of the Texas Constitution and Texas
Statutes.

S. City and Company acknowledge circumstances might
require the City to provide emergency services to
Company's Property described on Exhibit "A" attached
hereto. Emergency services are limited to fire,
police, and public works emergency services. If
Company is not a member of Channel Industries Mutual
Aid Association (ClMA), Company agrees to reimburse
city for its costs arising out of any emergency
response requested by Company to Company I s property,
and to which City agrees to respond. If Company is a
member of ClMA, the obligations of Company and City
shall be governed by the ClMA agreement, to which
agreement City is a party.
IV.
This Agreement shall extend for a period beginning on the 1st day
of January, 2008, and continuing thereafter until December 31,
2019, 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, 2019, 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
6
Company shall have the right to take all legal steps desired by it
to reduce the same.
Notwithstanding such protest by Company, and except as otherwise
provided in Article VI (B), 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 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, or City shall make payment to Company of any refund
due, as the case may be, 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) calendar days of receiving City's invoice, 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
written valuations statement submitted to City by Company
hereunder, or the total assessment and "in lieu of taxes" thereon
for the last preceding year, whichever is higher.
7
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
expert opinion, 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
8
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,
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.
XII.
