Attest: Mihir Pankaj Mayor Janice Ellis City Clerk Item No. 9 TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro -Tem, and City Council Rose Beverly, City Manager FROM: Gene Anderson, Finance Director SUBJECT: DECEMBER 2024 FINANCIAL REPORT DATE: February 10, 2025 BACKGROUND: Section 69 (3) of the Paris City Charter requires the Finance Director to submit to the City Council through the City Manager a monthly statement of receipts and disbursements. STATUS OF ISSUE: This report updates the City Council on the City's financial activities through the month stated in the subject line. BUDGET: Not affected by this report. RECOMMENDATION: Motion to receive the monthly financial report. City of Paris December 2024 Financiai Report.Comments. Net to Date Comparison of Revenues: 1. The operations and maintenance property tax and related collections reported are 15.35% less than what was reported in 2023. This large difference is a timing issue. The Lamar County Appraisal District has not made as many deposits this December compared to last year. Current tax collections this year are 25.32% of the tax levy vs. 31.01% last year. 2. Sales taxes are up 2.95% from last year ($78,787). 3. Hotel occupancy taxes are up 33.42% compared to last year ($89,790). 4. Franchise fees are down 3.30% compared to last year ($29,224). This is due to small decreases from Atmos, Oncor, Suddenlink, and ROW use fees, and the solid waste street use fee. 5. Permit fees are down 58.11% from last year ($171,067). Building permit fees for new construction were unusually high last year. 6. Municipal Court fines and related fees are up 22.67% compared to last year ($9,116). 7. Other revenue includes leases, interest, copy fees, birth & death certificates, library fees, mixed beverage tax, and other minor revenues. This revenue is up 21.24% ($55,238). 8. Sanitation fees are up 617.50% ($314,320). This large increase is due to the closing of the Sanitation Fund and redirecting the funding to pay for CARDS services and other sanitation efforts in the general fund. 9. EMS fees are up 106.37% compared to last year ($672,679). Our 3rd party collection agency had issues in the first quarter of last year. Collections were well below what they should have been. The company addressed the issue and collections picked up. 10. Lamar County EMS contributions are up 4.90% ($5,462) compared to last year. 11. Interest revenues are down 28.69% ($96,820). Interest rates have dropped somewhat from their peak, but the timing of interest payments also impacts this revenue. 12. W&S Admin Fees are up 8.33% ($24,999). This increase was expected and allowed for in the budget. 13. Total General Fund revenues are up 6.46% compared to last year ($548,321). General Fund revenues equal 34.11% of the budget with the City being 25.00% through the budget year. 14. Total General Fund expenditures are up 13.88% ($945,362) compared to last year. General Fund expenditures to date equal 21.63% of budget with the City being 25.00% through the budget year. 15. Sewer revenue was up 4.41% ($121,184). 16. Water revenue was up 3.93% ($89,641). 17. Other revenue sources are up 5.84% ($11,112). 18. Total Water & Sewer revenues, ignoring transfers and adjustments, are 4.25% above last year ($221,938) and represent 24.52% of the total budget. 19. Total Water & Sewer expenses are 9.30% above last year ($266,765) at this point and represent 14.91% of the total budget (33.42% adjusted for debt payments.) while the City is 25.00% through the budget year. 20. The Airport Fund revenues are up 11.78% ($27,837) compared to last year. Expenditures are up 16.14% ($40,369) compared to last year. This leaves the airport with a $26,363 operating deficit after one quarter of operation and a $15,551 cash deficit. Departmental Expenditure Summary: At this point the City'is three Months or 25.00% through the budget year. It is important to remember that expenditures do not occurequally throughout the year. For example, capital expenditures and association memberships are one-time expenditures that if made early in the fiscal year can produce a distorted expenditure percentage. Within the General,- Water & Sewer, and Airport Funds there were eight departments whose expenditures were over 25.00%. 1. City Council -37.49%. The overage amounts to $25,043 and was due to the City Manager search and the annual insurance payment. 2. Public Works -25.08%. The overage amounts to $220.90 and is an immaterial amount. 3. Traffic & Public Lighting -27.99%. The overage amounts to $16,021 and was due to the construction of bus stops. 4. Library -28.29%. The overage amounts to $29,325 and was caused by computer related expenses and upgrade to children's area. 5. General Expenses & IT -27.63%. The overage amounts to $60,829 and was caused by Microsoft Teams Room, Forestbrook PID expenses, and the annual contribution to the Health District. 6. Water Billing -25.5%. The overage amounts to $15,606 and was due to software payments, annual insurance payment, and incorrect posting of a charge to this department. 7. Water Distribution -26.23%. The overage amounts to $25,2128 and was due to temp help, longevity pay, sick sell back, and vehicle tires. 8. Airport -27.24%. The overage amounts to $23,893 and was caused by the annual insurance payment, the ground power unit, other supplies, and building maintenance. General comments to the City Council: Over 99% of all the City operational activity takes place in the General Fund, the Water & Sewer Fund, and the Airport Fund. The other funds are special purpose funds with limited activity and usually with legal restrictions on what their money can be spent on. For that reason, I normally only comment on the activity of the General Fund, Water & Sewer Fund, and Airport Fund. However, if circumstances merited it, I would make comment on activity in one of the other funds. I attempt to anticipate questions you might have about the report and comment on those points. After you receive your packet and review the monthly report, if you have questions about the report, please let me know before the Council meeting, if possible, in case I must research the answer to your question. That does not prevent you from asking the question at the meeting if you wish to make a point, but it does help prevent questions coming up that I can't answer on the spot and possibly delay the Council in making a decision.

This $500,000 grant will be used for the reconstruction of a substandard 6 Inch and 8 Inch sewer main between 28`x' Street NW and Graham Street. The new 10 inch sewer main will fix an Inflow & Infiltration problem in the existing main (which is over 1800 Linear Feet in length). This main is also in a remote location, which makes it difficult to repair when the old main has failed. Having a new main installed will drastically reduce the amount of maintenance time required for that stretch of sewer main. As part of our ongoing efforts to improve the infrastructure of the city, staff has made it a priority to pursue grant funding at every opportunity to help fund improvements like this with state and/or federal funds. In order to help balance the workload of city staff, we will be hiring a consultant engineer to design this new sewer main. GrantWorks has helped city staff with this grant opportunity with the Texas Department of Agriculture. GrantWorks and city engineering department advertised for Request for Qualifications from engineering firms all over Texas in the Paris News on October 15, 2024, for Engineering Firms to send Qualifications by October 25, 2024. The City received responses from four qualified firms by the deadline. The firms submitting qualifications were as follows: WSB Engineers of Paris, Tx. WA Civil, LLC of Paris, Tx. Hayter Engineering of Paris, Tx. DHR Engineering, Inc of Irving, Tx. STATUS OF ISSUE: An evaluation committee of Mayor Mihir Pankaj, Mayor Pro Tem Gary Savage, City Engineer Todd Mittge, and Engineering Technician Steve Hodges performed evaluations on each of the four firms. Scoring was based on the following: ........... Criteria Experience _.._ Maximum Points 60 ........ __..._.. Work Performance 25 _....._..... Capacity to Perform ............ 15 Total _ 100 After all of the scoring was tallied, Hayter Engineering of Paris, Texas was selected with an average total score of 99.75. Detailed scoring information is available to the City Council upon request. Also attached is the resolution authorizing the selection of Hayter Engineering. Should the City Council approve this resolution, City Staff will then begin contract negotiations, including obtaining reasonable fees for their service to be brought back to the City Council for approval. For engineering agreements, they are not awarded based on lowest bid, but rather on most qualified. BUDGET: The City was awarded $500,000 in the Texas Community Development Block Grant. During the grant application process, the city committed to $75,000 of city funds as a match. The design engineering for this project will come from a combination of city funds and CDBG funds.

PASSED AND APPROVED THIS 101h DAY OF FEBRUARY, 2025. Mihir Pankaj, Mayor ATTEST: Janice Ellis, City Clerk APPROVED AS TO FORM: Stephanie H. Harris, City Attorney Item No. 11 IV�M �M �� TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro -Tem, & City Council Rose Beverly, City Manager FROM: Gene Anderson, Finance Director SUBJECT: CITY DEPOSITORY 2025-27 DATE: February 10, 2025 BACKGROUND: Under Chapters 105 and 131 of the Local Government Code, the City of Paris may receive bids from financial institutions to serve as the depository,and custodian of City funds. The City has historically operated under two year agreements. The current depository agreement expires February 28, 2025. STATUS OF ISSUE: The City advertised in the Paris News on January 5th and 12th of 2025 that it would receive bids to serve as the City's depository bank for a two-year period beginning March 1, 2025, and ending February 28, 2027. In addition, email notification was sent to 4 local banks and one credit union who had expressed interest in the past. Requests for additional information were received from two banks. Liberty National Bank and Farmers Bank & Trust submitted bids, and both bids were strong bids. Both banks waived service fees. Overall, Liberty Bank's CD rates would be more favorable to the City. We asked the banks on what basis the interest rate on the City's Consolidated Cash account would be made. On this issue, the banks used different base rates. Farmer's Bank used the 90 -day Treasury Bill as the base rate and added 0.05 basis points to that rate. Liberty Bank used the 26 -week Treasury Bill as the base rate and added 0.20 basis points. Currently those two Treasury Bill rates are very close to each other. Farmer's Bank did not set a floor or a cap on what the Consolidated Cash rate could be. Liberty set a floor and a cap on the Consolidated Cash rate they offered. I had a long conversation with a broker from Raymond James about what interest rates would do in the next two years. I concluded that if interest rates rose significantly and exceeded Liberty Bank's cap, the City could exercise its right to invest part or all of its surplus funds outside the designated depository bank. Taping into the open market, would give the City a work around to the cap set by Liberty Bank. BUDGET: Not affected by this selection. RECOMMENDATION: Motion to select Liberty National Bank to serve as the City of Paris depository bank for the period March 1, 2025 through February 28, 2027.

For the purposes of this Agreement, the Base Value of the existing real property shall be deemed to be the value as shown on the tax rolls of the Lamar County Appraisal District as of January 1, 2023. 5.4 This abatement is granted in accordance with the City's Guidelines and Criteria for the Program, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2, provided, however, that in the event of any conflict between this Agreement Exhibit 2, this Agreement shall control. 5.5 Upon receipt of the documentation set forth in Article III and in Section 6.6 herein as to each constructed and completed Structure, City will notify the Lamar County Appraisal District to begin the tax abatement as to said Structure.

Default 5.6 If (a) the Improvements (all seven residential Structures) for which an abatement has been granted are not completed in accordance with this Agreement (by February 9, 2030); or (b) Owner allows its taxes owed the City to become delinquent and fails to timely and properly 5 follow the legal procedures for protest or contest of any such; or (c) Owner materially breaches any of the other terms, provisions or conditions of this Economic Development Agreement and Tax Abatement Agreement, including but not limited to the Mandatory Anti -Discrimination Provisions set forth herein, then owner shall be considered in default of this Agreement. In the event Owner defaults in its performance of either (a), (b), or (c) above, then City shall give Owner written notice of such default and if Owner has not cured such default within sixty (60) days of said written notice, this Tax Abatement Agreement may be terminated by the City. Notice of default shall be given in accordance with Article VI of this Agreement. 5.7 As damages in the event of default, and in accordance with the requirements and provisions of Section 312.205 of the Tax Code of the State of Texas, all taxes which otherwise would have been paid to the City without the benefit of abatement, including taxes on those dwelling units constructed and completed according to the terms of this Agreement, together with interest to be charged at the statutory rate for delinquent taxes as determined by Section 33.01 of the Property Tax Code of the State of Texas, with all penalties and attorney's fees permitted by the Property Redevelopment and Tax Abatement Act and the Tax Code of the State of Texas, shall be recaptured and will become a debt to the City and shall be due, owing, and paid to the City within sixty (60) days of the expiration of the above-mentioned applicable cure period as the sole remedy of the City, subject to any and all lawful offsets, settlements, deductions, or credits to which Owner may be entitled.

N 7 J Item No. 14 TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro -Tem & City Council Rose Beverly, City Manager FROM: Janice Ellis, City Clerk SUBJECT: APPOINTMENT TO FILL ONE VACANT POSITION ON THE PLANNING & ZONING COMMISSION DATE: February 10, 2025 BACKGROUND: Policies and Procedures for Boards, Commissions, and Committees adopted by City Council require that appointments be made at the second regular City Council meeting in June. STATUS OF ISSUE: Tylesha Moseley was appointed to serve on the Planning and Zoning Commission with a term beginning on July 1, 2023, and ending June 30, 2026. Since that time, Ms. Moseley has resigned from the Commission leaving one vacant position. Over the last several months, City staff has advertised the vacancy through local media and on the City website. On January 30, 2025, staff received an application from Paula Portugal. BUDGET: N/A RECOMMENDATION: Appoint Paula Portugal to fill the vacant position on the Planning and Zoning Commission. Item No. 15 TO: City Council Rose Beverly, City Manager FROM: Stephanie H. Harris, City Attorney SUBJECT: Disannexation Requests—LOAD Parcels 21148 (Wallace E. Kraft, II); 400656, 400657 and 400659 (Cobb Testamentary Trust); and 125594 (Paul and Chelli Morrison), located on Clarksville St. and Cobb Ranch Road—Approximately 71.20 acres in total DATE: February 10, 2025 BACKGROUND: The following property owners have requested disannexation from the City of Paris: Wallace E. Kraft, II 4200 Clarksville St., LCAD No. 21148, 24.78 acres. This property is the Dr. Kraft's large and small animal hospital. The State of Texas has purchased a portion of the property for the expansion of HWY 271 S, including a portion of the property on which the structure sits necessitation demolition and reconstruction further back on the parcel. Cobb Testamentary Trust 6125 Old Clarksville Rd., LCAD Nos. 400656, 400657, and 400659, 44.42 acres. The property is undeveloped. Paul and Chelli Morrison 1900 Cobb Ranch Rd., LCAD No. 125594, 2 acres. This property is part of a larger tract that the Morrison's own on which there is a large residence with shop building and in ground pool. The 2 acre parcel is behind the residence. The parcel at issue is inside the city limits; the 5.04 parcel with the residence is outside of the city limits, having been disannexed as a part of a larger disannexation around Cobb Ranch Road in 2008 (Ordinance No. 2008-035). Solid yellow line is current city limits; dotted yellow line would be the new city limits if city disannexes all three petitions. Each applicant lists lack of access to city water or sewer. Dr. Kraft's existing building has both water and sewer service. Then water and sewer lines nearest to the five parcels are located as follows: Water lines are in blue; sewer lines are in green. The yellow line is the current city limits line. STATUS OF ISSUE: The city's annexation/disannexation policy (see attached Exhibit B) provides that "the City will consider disannexation of any area within its corporate limits if so requested by a majority of property owner(s) and if the area fails to meet at least one of the above seven criteria, and if ...the proposed disannexation is part of an identifiable, logical whole (versus individual parcels) which neither creates `holes' inside the existing corporate city limits, nor forces any other area of the city outside the revised boundary line (`islands' outside the revised lines)."' See Exhibit B, p. 16. The seven factors relate to: • Whether the parcels form an enclave; • Whether the area has developed as an urban area; • Whether the area is a designated growth center; • Whether the retaining the area within the city limits would result in an adverse impact to the city, including adverse fiscal impacts; • Whether disannexation would present an opportunity for incorporation of the area into a new municipality or for an existing municipality to annex the area; • Whether the area is populated with residential development; and 1 Underlining is original to the text; italics are added by the authors. The policy requires only that the city consider disannexation, not that the city grant it. • Whether the area is proposed for long-term development. See Exhibit B, pp. 15-16 for the full text of the policy.2 Each of these criteria also contains a requirement relating to the provision of city services. In this instance, the Council may consider the property for disannexation because (a) the area proposed to be disannexed comprises more that an individual parcel (although the fact that it is only four parcels makes this point arguable given the language of the policy); (2) the area is not populated with residential development (criteria #6); and (3) disannexation of the area will not create any keyholes or islands. The primary issue with disannexation of the proposed area as far as the city is concerned is that of lost potential property tax revenue. Dr. Kraft's parcel is now (and will be when he builds his new clinic) developed. The real question is the possibility of future development on the Cobb and Morrison properties. At present, the Cobb properties are subject to an Ag exemption that make their taxable value very low. Staff is concerned that with expansion of HWY 271 and other development in the area, these properties may become attractive for either residential or commercial development which would greatly increase their taxable values. In any event, it must be remembered that once disannexed, given current annexation law, it would be nearly impossible to reannex the property, and the city would be giving up all future property taxes forever. Should Council wish to undertake disannexation proceedings with respect to this property, the following procedure will need to be followed: February 10, 2025—City Council Meeting—The City Council will discuss the petition and determine whether or not to proceed. If Council wishes to proceed, it should consider and act upon the accompanying resolution authorizing the disannexation process. Should Council wish not to proceed, it should consider and act upon the accompanying resolution declining to proceed. This is in the discretion of the Council. If Council determines to proceed, from here, the entire process must be complete within 90 days. If Council determines not to proceed, there will be no further action on the petition. If Council chooses to proceed: February 11--21, 2025—The city attorney will send out notices to other taxing entities, service providers, and railroads as necessary, which must be done by 30 days before the first of two public hearings. March 13, 2025—Publish notice of first and second public hearing in the Paris News (publication of notices of hearing must be between the 20`i' and the 10th day out from each public hearing; because of the way the calendar falls, we can do a single publication for both which saves on publication fees).. March 24, 2025—Regular City Council Meeting -1St Public Hearing Z The policy for disannexation is simply the inverse of the policy for annexation. Other than the prohibitions against keyholes and islands, the policy on disannexation is sparse. Likewise, state law regarding disannexation is simply that the procedures used in disannexing property must not conflict with the procedures for annexing property. March 31, 2025—Special City Council Meeting -2"d Public Hearing (If Council prefers, we could hold the second public hearing on April 7d', but that would require an additional publication.) April 28, 2025—City Council Meeting—Act on ordinance to disannex (day 77 from institution of disannexation proceedings) BUDGET: The requested disannexation would deprive the City of the property tax revenue for the disannexed property, at this time, given the lack of development an Ag exemptions on most of the parcels, those revenues are minimal, but could go up substantially if the property is ever developed depending on the nature of that development. OPTIONS: 1. Discuss and act on a resolution stating the intent of city Council to institute disannexation procedings on the LCAD Parcels 21148, 400656, 400657, 400659, and 125594, located on Old Clarksville Road and Cobb Ranch Road and comprising approximately 71.20 acres and provide direction to staff as to next steps. Authorizing disannexation procedures does not obligate Council to ultimately disannex the parcels. 2. Discuss and act on a resolution making findings of fact and denying the petition of disannexation as to LCAD Parcels 71112, 71113, 70422, and 70423, located on County Road 22500 and comprising approximately 291 acres. RECOMMENDATION: Because the city's annexation/disannexation policy would seem to dictate that Council at least consider the petition, staff recommends that Council choose and act on the resolution described in Option No. 1 with the understanding that Council may ultimately choose not to approve an ordinance of disannexation.

Applicant(s) Signature Date Applicant(s) Signature Date Item No. 16 TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro -Tem, & City Council Rose Beverly, City Manager FROM: Robert G. Vine, Deputy City Manager SUBJECT: Provide Update of Shared Fuel Farm Project with Lamar County, Discuss and Provide Staff Direction DATE: February 10, 2025 BACKGROUND: For approximately two years, City staff and members of the Council have been discussing the possibility of working with Lamar County to construct a shared fuel farm, on land owned by the County which would service and benefit the City of Paris and Lamar County. Information regarding fuel usage for each organization has been collected, reviewed and analyzed to establish a baseline for expectations for this project. Various site visits were also made to learn more about options and set-ups available before designing took place. The purpose of this project is to provide an opportunity for each organization to reduce their annual fuel budget by approximately $30,000 to $50,000, better meet the fuel needs for each organization and ensure fuel needs can be met during emergency situations. During initial discussions with the County, the City had budgeted $150,000 of ARPA funds to put towards this project, however, those ARPA funds are no longer available. STATUS OF ISSUE: Lamar County has successfully designed a fuel farm, and the initial construction was scheduled to begin last week. The total cost of the Fuel Farm is approximately $800,000. Discussions have continued to take place with a potential partnership between the City of Paris and Lamar County to construct, manage and maintain a shared fuel farm with the last meeting taking place last week. To successfully move forward with this concept, both the City of Paris and Lamar County will need to draft and agree to the terms of an interlocal agreement (ILA) stipulating each party's responsibilities. The terms identified for this ILA are as follows: - Amount of initial investment for each party — Lamar County is currently proposing a 50/50 split of the initial investment with both parties contributing $400,000 each. - Level of access, management and maintenance of the software application associated with the fuel delivery system - Annual payment associated with any maintenance of the facility - The process associated with payment for the fuel used by each organization - The establishment of a replacement fund to ensure continuity of service - Length of the agreement Staff seek the input and direction of the Council to move forward with the creation of an interlocal agreement for this project. The ILA will be brought back to Council for final approval. BUDGET: Discussion only. RECOMMENDATION: Discussion only.
