Improvement District, comprised of approximately 59.62 acres of land at the Forestbrook

for construction of authorized improvements consisting primarily of infrastructure related to the
project. Mr. McLiney said the purpose of this matter was to call a public hearing on July 28,
2024, as required by law. Mr. McLiney and Ms. Schulte answered questions from City Council.

Ms. Beverly said each year weather events, and natural disaster occur and the State and
Federal Government release disaster declarations. She also said these declarations were soon
accompanied by funding opportunities and assisted cities in their efforts to mitigate future
damage and impact from these matters. Ms. Beverly explained that prepositioning alleviated the
need to hire an administrator separately for each DR funding which would save the City great
amounts of time, effort and money. She said prepositioning applied to TDEM, FEMA and
TWDB. Ms. Beverly introduced Jon McElfish with GrantWorks who stated prepositioning the
City to receive funding allowed them to skip the RFP process which would save at least 6 weeks
of time.

Council Member Putnam. Motion carried, 5 ayes - 0 nays.

MANAGER AS SIGNATORIES IN ALL MATTERS RELATED TO THE HOME
PROGRAM; MAKING OTHER FINDINGS AND PROVISIONS RELATED TO THE
SUBJECT; AND DECLARING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
Ms. Beverly said the City had participated in this program for a number of years, which
made funding availability to benefit low-income residents of the State of Texas communities
through the Texas HOME Investment Partnerships. She said the next round of applications for
the HOME Program were due and in order to continue the program, the City Council must

Council Member Attebury. Motion carried, 5 ayes — 0 nays.

Page 6
SCHEDULE," ARTICLE A10.000, "UTILITY RATES AND CHARGES," SECTION
A10.003, "WATER RATES," OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF
PARTS, TEXAS TO REFLECT CHANGES RECOMMENDED BY THE 2025 WATER
AND SEWER RATE STUDY; PROVIDING A REPEALER CLAUSE, A
SEVER -ABILITY CLAUSE, A SAVINGS CLAUSE, A PENALTY CLAUSE; AND
PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
Interim Finance Director Gene Anderson explained that the City currently had treated
water contracts with four local industries and one of the requirements of those contracts was for
the City to have an independent rate consultant conduct a cost -of -service study each year. Mr.
Anderson introduced Chris Ekrut with NewGen Strategies & Solutions.
Mr. Ekrut presented the findings for the 2025 Water & Wastewater Cost of Service Study.
He said the Council had previously adopted wastewater rate increases to fund the WWTP
rehabilitation and associated debt issuance and the next increase was scheduled for October
2025. He also said the last water rate increase was in June 2022. Mr. Ekrut reviewed the rate
maintenance policy. Mr. Ekrut reported that the Project Team found that retail water rates were
currently insufficient and recommended an 8,25% water rate increase as early as June 2025. He
also reported that the Team recommended continued wastewater rate increases as detailed within
the City's currently adopted wastewater ordinance. Mr. Ek -rut reviewed the proposed residential
water rates and monthly water bills, as well as the proposed commercial water rates and monthly
water bills. Mr. Ek -rut answered questions from City Council.
A Motion to approve this item was made by Council Member Ellis and seconded by

18. Discuss and act on a services agreement with the Lamar County Humane Association in
the amount of $15,000.00 for the public purpose of helping control the population of
stray and unwanted animals.
Ms. Beverly said for several years the City included in its budget a line item in the amount
of $100,000.00-$105,000.00 for non-profit agencies that contracted with the City to provide
services for public purposes, and in the FY 2024-25 funds were not budgeted for non-profit
agencies. Ms. Rose explained that she had reviewed the City's non-profit contracting practices
and after careful evaluation determined that City funds should be allocated only to non-profit
organizations whose services directly supported municipal operations and help offset the City's
budgetary responsibilities. In collaboration with Chief Salter, Ms. Beverly recommended
funding for the following organizations: Lamar County Humane Association ($15,000.00),
Baby Gunn's Animal Rescue ($7,000.00), and the Children's Advocacy Center ($15,000.00).
Ms. Rose explained these agencies were selected based on their provisions of essential public
services that would otherwise fall to the City. Chief Salter reported that the police department
works really close with these three organizations.

Council Member Attebury. Motion carried, 5 ayes -- 0 nays.

looking for another technician. He said in the last two months the airport had brought in revenue.

Site Visitation Program and Foreign Trade Zone: Ms. Hammond noted that she would be combining her
updates on the Site Visitation Program and Foreign Trade Zone Designation into one update. She noted
that earlier in the month she had reconvened the Site Visitation Program as part of Business Retention
and Expansion programming. She stated that, to date, she had met with five companies and that each
visit had yielded productive conversations and follow-up opportunities. She continued by noting that
after conversations with PJC President Dr. Stephen Benson, she had decided to invite Vice President of
Workforce Education Dr. Michael Erny to join her on future site visits. She noted that much of the
discussion with these companies centered on training needs and suggested that including Dr. Erny in
future visits would be advantageous, as it would help avoid duplicative efforts between the
organizations.
Ms. Hammond further noted that she had been using her site visits as an opportunity to discuss the
benefits of a Foreign Trade Zone designation. She noted that two companies had expressed strong
interest in the potential benefits on an FTZ. She commented that as the process continues to move
forward, the PEDC would continue to engage in conversations with these companies.
Ms. Hammond opened the floor to questions regarding the Site Visitation Program and Foreign Trade
Zone. There were no questions.

Valley Veterans Memorial, Inc. (RRVVM) on February 28, 2011 for a .9022 acre tract of land
adjacent to the Love Civic Center and Eiffel Tower monument for the purpose of developing the
Red River Valley Veterans Memorial (Memorial). Thereafter, on September 22, 2014, the city and
RRVVM amended the Lease to add additional acreage east of the original premises to enable
expansion of the Memorial. The Lease term began on March 1, 2011 and extends to February 28,
2110, a 99 year term, and provides for ten year renewal terms thereafter. As consideration for the
Lease, RRVVM is responsible for upkeep of the property and all costs of development thereof,
and it provides a well-maintained and well -visited Memorial for the city's citizens and and visitors.
STATUS OF ISSUE: RRVVM has approached the city requesting another expansion of the leased
premises to include an additional .8 tract adjacent to and north of the Memorial and adjacent to
and east of (behind) the Eiffel Tower for the purposes of constructing an office building to house
its corporate offices and provide meeting space for programs benefitting veterans. The attached
document, the Second Amendment of Lease Agreement, provides for expanding the leased
premises and contains a survey of what will, upon approval and execution of the amendment, be a
2.081 acre tract.
BUDGET: None.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving the Second Amendment of Lease
Agreement between the City of Paris, Texas and Red River Valley Veterans Memorial, Inc.

memorandum Item No. 8
TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, and City Council
FROM: Rose Beverly, City Manager
Stephanie H. Harris, City Attorney
SUBJECT: Approval of Expenditure of $100,000.00 from the TIRZ Fund to support the 111 St.
Revitalization Program
DATE: July 14, 2025
BACKGROUND: In 2019, the City Council created the Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No.
1 (the TIRZ) for the purposes of financing downtown improvements. Thereafter, in February of
2020, the TIRZ Board of Directors (the Board) presented a Project and Financing Plan (the Plan)
to Council for approval. After a public hearing, the Council adopted the Plan. The Plan, as currently
adopted, includes street, utility, landscape, and streetscape improvements, including East 1St St.
In 2023, the City applied for and was awarded a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
of $500,000.00 to revitalize the section of East Ist St. between Clarksville St. and Lamar Avenue.
The project is currently over budget, and the City wishes to add additional bump outs to narrow
the street. Construction is well underway, and will need to be completed by the end of this year in
order to meet the conditions of the grant. The Lamar County Chamber of Commerce has agreed to
contribute to the project, and at its meeting on July 10, 2025, the Board approved an expenditure
of $100,000.00 to go towards the project. This funding will assure that the bump outs can be
constructed.
STATUS OF ISSUE: State law requires that the City Council approve all TIRZ Fund
expenditures. This particular expenditure is approved in the Plan and is of the precise nature that
the TIRZ Plan, as it currently exists, contemplates. The TIRZ Fund, prior to this expenditure, has
a balance of $252,097.66. The only other expenditure from the fund to date was for the services of
Forked Pine Consultants in creating a modeling tool for making more precise projections of future
revenues and advising the Board on TIRZ related matters.
BUDGET: None to the City per se; the funding will reduce the TIRZ Fund by $100,000.00.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving the expenditure of $100,000.00 from the
TIRZ Fund to help fund the 1St St. revitalization project.
memorandum Item No. 9
TO: City Council
Rose Beverly, City Manager
FROM: Stephanie H. Harris, City Attorney
SUBJECT: Forestbrook Public Improvement District No. 1 Service and Assessment Plan
DATE: July 14, 2025
BACKGROUND: On October 14, 2024, City Council passed and approved a resolution creating
Forestbrook Public Improvement District No. 1 (the PID) which comprises some 59.62 acres of
land at the Forestbrook housing development site in southeast Paris. The purpose of the PID is to
allow the issuance of PID bonds to provide funding to the developer, Lone Star Planned
Developments, LLC, for the construction of Authorized Improvements consisting primarily of
infrastructure related to the project. At that same meeting, City Council approved a Development
Agreement with the developer. Earlier this year, the developer requested that the City issue an
initial PID bond which will be for less than $2,000,000.00. While according to the Development
Agreement, total bonds shall not exceed $20,000,000.00, the total of all bond issues for the PID is
expected to be less than $8,000,000.00. Pursuant to the Texas Public Improvement District Act
(the Act, located in Chapter 327 of the Texas Local Government Code), the bonds are to be paid
from Assessments on each parcel in the housing development, and the City has no liability with
respect to repayment thereof. The PID is a reimbursement PID which requires the developer to
advance costs for the authorized improvements for reimbursement from the PID bond fund.
Accordingly, the developer and the City's PID team, including staff, bond counsel, financial
consultants, and PID consultants, negotiated the "Reimbursement Agreement—Forestbrook
Public Improvement District No. 1" (the Reimbursement Agreement) that Council approved on
April 28, 2025. The Reimbursement Agreement satisfies the requirements of Section 372.023 of
the Act.
At the last meeting on June 23, 2025, Council to passed a resolution approving a Preliminary
Service And Assessment Plan (the Preliminary SAP) which includes the proposed Assessment
Roll (the Proposed Assessment Roll). The PID Act requires that a Service Plan cover a period of
at least five years; define the annual indebtedness and projected cost of the Authorized
Improvements; and include a copy of the notice form required by law. Since the execution by all
parties of the Reimbursement Agreement, the developer has detennined for various reasons to
proceed with a distinct area known as Improvement Area #1 which is defined in the Preliminary
SAP.
STATUS OF ISSUE: The final step before any bonds can be issued is for Council to conduct a
public hearing and to pass the attached ordinance which approves the final SAP, which, as the
name implies, finalizes all the components of the Preliminary SAP including defining the annual
projected costs and indebtedness for the Authorized Improvements within the PID for the 5 year
period and setting out how the Assessments for the properties within the PID will be calculated
and assessed. The ordinance also authorizes the Assessments on the properties within the
Boundaries of the PID. The average amount of the Assessment per unit will be $2,469.63.
Once the Assessment is approved, our consultants will continue on the path towards issuing bonds.
Our consultants anticipate that it will take and additional 60 days or so to accomplish the bonding
process.
BUDGET: None. Expenses have been and will be borne by the developer and the PID.
RECOMMENDATION: Conduct a public hearing as required by law and adopt the attached
Ordinance approving the Forestbrook Public Improvement District No. 1 Service and Assessment
Plan and authorizing the Assessment.
Su Lm ested Motion Lan ua e: I move to adopt an ordinance accepting and approving service
and assessment plan and assessment roll for Forestbrook Public Improvement District No.
1, levying special assessments against certain property in Improvement Area #1 of the
District, and approving all other matters related thereto.

per front foot or square foot; (2) according to the value of property as determined by the City
Council with or without regard to improvements constructed on the property; or (3) in any other
manner approved by the City Council that results in imposing equal shares of such costs on
property similarly benefited. The PID Act further provides that the City Council may establish by

between the City and the area to be assessed and the methods of assessing the special benefits
for various classes of improvements.
This section of this Service and Assessment Plan describes the special benefit received by each
Assessed Property within the District as a result of the Authorized Improvements and provides
the basis and justification for the determination that this special benefit equals or exceeds the
amount of the Assessments to be levied on the Assessed Property for such Authorized
Improvements.

result of the discretionary exercise by the City Council of its legislative authority and
governmental powers and is conclusive and binding on the Developer, and all future owners and
developers of the Assessed Property and Apportioned Property.

outstanding Assessment. The Annual Collection Costs shall be collected as part of and in the
same manner as Annual Installments in the amounts shown on the Assessment Roll, which may
be revised based on Actual Costs incurred in Annual Service Plan Updates.
E. Interest
The interest on the Improvement Area #1 Assessment securing the Improvement Area #1
Reimbursement Obligation shall be collected at rates established in this Service and Assessment
Plan, as shown on Exhibit F-2, pursuant to the Improvement Area #1 Reimbursement Agreement
as part of the Improvement Area #1 Annual Installment pursuant to the Improvement Area #1
Reimbursement Agreement, which will not include Additional Interest unless and until
Improvement Area #1 Bonds are issued.
SECTION VI: TERMS OF THE ASSESSMENTS
Any reallocation of Assessments as described in this Section VI shall be considered an
administrative action of the City and will not be subject to the notice or public hearing
requirements under the PID Act.
A. Reallocation of Assessments
1. Upon Division Prior to Recording of Subdivision Plot
FORESTBROOK PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 16
SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN
Upon the division of any Assessed Property (without the recording of a subdivision plat),
the Administrator shall reallocate the Assessment for the Assessed Property prior to the
division among the newly divided Assessed Properties according to the following formula:
A=Bx(C=D)
Where the terms have the following meanings:
A = the Assessment for the newly divided Assessed Property
B = the Assessment for the Assessed Property prior to division
C = the Estimated Buildout Value of the newly divided Assessed Property
D = the sum of the Estimated Buildout Value for all of the newly divided Assessed
Properties
The calculation of the Assessment of an Assessed Property shall be performed by the
Administrator and shall be based on the Estimated Buildout Value of that Assessed
Property, as provided by the Developer, relying on information from homebuilders,
market studies, appraisals, official public records of the County, and any other relevant
information regarding the Assessed Property. The Estimated Buildout Value for Lot Type
1 is shown on Exhibit E and will not change in future Annual Service Plan Updates but
Exhibit E may be updated in future Annual Service Plan Updates to account for additional
Lot Types. The calculation as confirmed by the City Council shall be conclusive and
binding.
The sum of the Assessments for all newly divided Assessed Properties shall equal the
Assessment for the Assessed Property prior to subdivision. The calculation shall be made
separately for each newly divided Assessed Property. The reallocation of an Assessment
for an Assessed Property that is a homestead under Texas law may not exceed the
Assessment prior to the reallocation. Any reallocation pursuant to this section shall be
reflected in the Annual Service Plan Update immediately following such reallocation.
2. Upon Subdivision by a Recorded Subdivision Plat
Upon the subdivision of any Assessed Property based on a recorded subdivision plat, the
Administrator shall reallocate the Assessment for the Assessed Property prior to the
subdivision among the new subdivided Lots based on Estimated Buildout Value according
to the following formula:
A = [B x (C _ D)]/E
Where the terms have the following meanings:
FORESTBROOK PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 17
SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN
A = the Assessment for the newly subdivided Lot
B = the Assessment for the Parcel prior to subdivision
C = the sum of the Estimated Buildout Value of all newly subdivided Lots with the
same Lot Type
D = the sum of the Estimated Buildout Value for all of the newly subdivided Lots
excluding Non -Benefitted Property
E= the number of newly subdivided Lots with the same Lot Type
Prior to the recording of a subdivision plat, the Developer shall provide the City an
Estimated Buildout Value as of the date of the recorded subdivision plat for each Lot
created by the recorded subdivision plat. The calculation of the Assessment for a Lot shall
be performed by the Administrator and confirmed by the City Council based on Estimated
Buildout Value information provided by the Developer, homebuilders, third party
consultants, and/or the official public records of the County regarding the Lot. The
Estimated Buildout Value for Lot Type 1 is shown on Exhibit E and will not change in future
Annual Service Plan Updates. The calculation as confirmed by the City Council shall be
conclusive and binding.
The sum of the Assessments for all newly subdivided Lots shall not exceed the Assessment
for the portion of the Assessed Property subdivided prior to subdivision. The calculation
shall be made separately for each newly subdivided Assessed Property. The reallocation
of an Assessment for an Assessed Property that is a homestead under Texas law may not
exceed the Assessment prior to the reallocation. Any reallocation pursuant to this section
shall be reflected in the Annual Service Plan Update immediately following such
reallocation.
3. Upon Consolidation
If two or more Lots or Parcels are consolidated into a single Lot or Parcel, the
Administrator shall allocate the Assessments against the Lots or Parcels before the
consolidation to the consolidated Lot or Parcel, which allocation shall be approved by the
City Council in the next Annual Service Plan Update immediately following such
consolidation. The Assessment for any resulting Lot may not exceed the Maximum
Assessment for the applicable Lot Type and compliance may require a mandatory
Prepayment of Assessments pursuant to Section VI.C.
B. Mandatory Prepayment of Assessments
If an Assessed Property or a portion thereof is conveyed to a party that is exempt from payment
of the Assessment under applicable law, or the owner causes a Lot, Parcel or portion thereof to
FORESTBROOK PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT No. 1
SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN 1$
become Non -Benefitted Property, the owner of such Lot, Parcel or portion thereof shall pay to
the City, or cause to be paid to the City, the full amount of the Assessment, plus all Prepayment
ch Assessed Prooertv, nrior to or concurren
a recordable "Notice of Assessment Termination," a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit
H.
Prior to the City approving a final subdivision plat, the Administrator will certify that such plat
will not result in the Assessment per Lot for any Lot Type to exceed the Maximum Assessment. If
shall each be reduced to the Maximum Assessment, and (2) the person or entity filing the plat
shall pay to the City, or cause to be paid to the City, the amount the Assessment was reduced,
plus Prepayment Costs and Delinquent Collection Costs, if any, prior to the City approving the
final plat. The City's approval of a plat without payment of such amounts does not eliminate the
obligation of e person #.... entity filing the platto pay amounts.
aggregate Assessments for any Lot exceed the Maximum Assessment.
lJ0jWW*VT4T� c
If the Actual Costs of completed Authorized Improvements are less than the Assessments, then
(i) in the event PID Bonds have notbeen •• for the purpose of financing Authorized
Improvements affected by such reduction in Actual Costs, the City Council shall reduce each
Assessment on a pro rata basis such that the sum of the resulting reduced Assessments for all
LrtLJ?l Coststj,;it were P.Yviza,sled. or hil in the event that
such reduction in Actual Costs, the Trustee shall apply amounts on deposit in the applicable
directed by the City pursuant to the terms of such Indenture. Such excess PID Bond proceeds
may be used for any purpose ^ # `# by d^ Assessments shall never b
reduced to an amount less than the amount required to pay all outstanding debt service
11111111 11111 IF
FORESTBROOK PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 19
SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN
E. Prepayment of Assessments
The owner of any Assessed Property may, at any time, pay all or any part of an Assessment in
accordance with the PID Act. Prepayment Costs, if any, may be paid from a reserve established
under the applicable Indenture. If an Annual Installment has been billed, or the Annual Service
Plan Update has been approved by the City Council prior to the Prepayment, the Annual
Installment shall be due and payable and shall be credited against the Prepayment.
If an Assessment on an Assessed Property is prepaid in full, with Prepayment Costs, (1) the
Administrator shall cause the Assessment to be reduced on said Assessed Property and the
Assessment Roll to be revised accordingly; (2) the Administrator shall prepare the revised
Assessment Roll and submit such revised Assessment Roll to the City Council for review and
approval as part of the next Annual Service Plan Update; and (3) the obligation to pay the
Assessment and corresponding Annual Installments shall terminate with respect to said Assessed
Property.
If an Assessment on an Assessed Property is prepaid in part with Prepayment Costs: (1) the
Administrator shall cause the Assessment to be reduced to zero on said Assessed Property and
the Assessment Roll revised accordingly; (2) the Administrator shall prepare the revised
Assessment Roll and submit such revised Assessment Roll to the City Council for review and
approval as part of the next Annual Service Plan Update; (3) the obligation to pay the Assessment
will be reduced to the extent of the Prepayment made; and (4) the City shall provide the owner
with a recordable "Notice of Assessment Termination."
For purposes of Prepayments, the Improvement Area #1 Reimbursement Obligation is and will
remain subordinated to any PID Bonds secured by a parity lien on the Improvement Area #1
Assessments issued to refinance all or a portion of the Improvement Area #1 Reimbursement
Obligation.
F. Payment of Assessment in Annual Installments
Assessments that are not paid in full shall be due and payable in Annual Installments. Exhibit F-2
shows the estimated Improvement Area #1 Annual Installments. Annual Installments are subject
to adjustment in each Annual Service Plan Update.
Prior to the recording of a final subdivision plat, if any Parcel shown on the Assessment Roll is
assigned multiple tax parcel identification numbers for billing and collection purposes, the Annual
Installment shall be allocated pro rata based on the acreage of the Parcel not including any Non -
Benefitted Property, as shown by the Lamar County Appraisal District for each tax parcel
identification number.
FORESTBROOK PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 1
SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN 20
The Administrator shall prepare and submit to the City Council for its review and approval an
Annual Service Plan Update to allow for the billing and collection of Annual Installments. Each
Annual Service Plan Update shall include updated Assessment Rolls and updated calculations of
Annual Installments. The Annual Collection Costs for a given Assessment shall be paid by the
owner of each Parcel pro rata based on the ratio of the amount of outstanding Assessment
remaining on the Parcel to the total outstanding Assessment. Annual Installments shall be
reduced by any credits applied under an applicable Indenture, such as capitalized interest,
interest earnings on account balances, and any other funds available to the Trustee for such
purposes. Annual Installments shall be collected by the City in the same manner and at the same
time as ad valorem taxes. Annual Installments shall be subject to the penalties, procedures, and
foreclosure sale in case of delinquencies as set forth in the PID Act and in the same manner as ad
valorem taxes due and owing to the City. To the extent permitted by the PID Act or other
applicable law, the City Council may provide for other means of collecting Annual Installments,
but in no case shall the City take any action, or fail to take any action, that would cause it to be
in default under any Indenture. Assessments shall have the lien priority specified in the PID Act.
Sales of the Assessed Property for nonpayment of Annual Installments shall be subject to the lien
for the remaining unpaid Annual Installments against the Assessed Property, and the Assessed
Property may again be sold at a judicial foreclosure sale if the purchaser fails to timely pay any of
the remaining unpaid Annual Installments as they become due and payable.
The City reserves the right to refund PID Bonds in accordance with applicable law, including the
PID Act. In the event of a refunding, the Administrator shall recalculate the Annual Installments
so that total Annual Installments will be sufficient to pay the refunding bonds, and the refunding
bonds shall constitute "PID Bonds."
Each Annual Installment of an Assessment, including interest on the unpaid principal of the
Assessment, shall be updated annually. Each Annual Installment shall be due when billed and
shall be delinquent if not paid prior to February 1 of the following year. The initial Annual
Installments of the Improvement Area #1 Assessments shall be due when billed and shall be
delinquent if not paid prior to February 1, 2026.
Failure of an owner of an Assessed Property to receive an invoice for an Annual Installment shall
not relieve said owner of the responsibility for payment of the Assessment. Assessments, or
Annual Installments thereof, that are delinquent shall incur Delinquent Collection Costs.
G. Prepayment as a Result of an Eminent Domain Proceeding or Taking
Subject to applicable law, if any portion of any Parcel of Assessed Property is taken from an owner
as a result of eminent domain proceedings or if a transfer of any portion of any Parcel of Assessed
FORESTBROOK PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 �1
SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN
Property is made to an entity with the authority to condemn all or a portion of the Assessed
Property in lieu of or as a part of an eminent domain proceeding (a "Taking"), the portion of the
Assessed Property that was taken or transferred (the "Taken Property") shall be reclassified as
Non -Benefitted Property.
For the Assessed Property that is subject to the Taking as described in the preceding paragraph,
the Assessment that was levied against the Assessed Property (when it was included in the Taken
Property) prior to the Taking shall remain in force against the remaining Assessed Property (the
Assessed Property less the Taken Property) (the "Remaining Property"), following the
reclassification of the Taken Property as Non -Benefitted Property, subject to an adjustment of
the Assessment applicable to the Remaining Property after any required Prepayment as set forth
below. The owner of the Remaining Property will remain liable to pay, pursuant to the terms of
this Service and Assessment Plan, as updated, and the PID Act, the Assessment that remains due
on the Remaining Property, subject to an adjustment in the Assessment applicable to the
Remaining Property after any required Prepayment as set forth below. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Assessment that remains due on the Remaining Property exceeds the applicable
Maximum Assessment, the owner of the Remaining Property will be required to make a
Prepayment in an amount necessary to ensure that the Assessment against the Remaining
Property does not exceed such Maximum Assessment, in which case the Assessment applicable
to the Remaining Property will be reduced by the amount of the partial Prepayment. If the City
receives all or a portion of the eminent domain proceeds (or payment made in an agreed sale in
lieu of condemnation), such amount shall be credited against the amount of Prepayment, with
any remainder credited against the Assessment on the Remaining Property.
In all instances the Assessment remaining on the Remaining Property shall not exceed the
applicable Maximum Assessment.
By way of illustration, if an owner owns 100 acres of Assessed Property subject to a $100
Assessment and 10 acres is taken through a Taking, the 10 acres of Taken Property shall be
reclassified as Non -Benefitted Property and the remaining 90 acres constituting the Remaining
Property shall be subject to the $100 Assessment (provided that this $100 Assessment does not
exceed the Maximum Assessment on the Remaining Property). If the Administrator determines
that the $100 Assessment reallocated to the Remaining Property would exceed the Maximum
Assessment, as applicable, on the Remaining Property by $10, then the owner shall be required
to pay $10 as a Prepayment of the Assessment against the Remaining Property and the
Assessment on the Remaining Property shall be adjusted to $90.
Notwithstanding the previous paragraphs in this subsection, if the owner of the Remaining
Property notifies the City and the Administrator that the Taking prevents the Remaining Property
FORESTBROOK PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO. 1 22
SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN
from being developed for any use which could support the Estimated Buildout Value
requirement, the owner shall, upon receipt of the compensation for the Taken Property, be
required to prepay the amount of the Assessment required to buy down the outstanding
Assessment to the applicable Maximum Assessment on the Remaining Property to support the
Estimated Buildout Value requirement. The owner will remain liable to pay the Assessment on
both the Taken Property and the Remaining Property until such time that such Assessment has
been prepaid in full.
Notwithstanding the previous paragraphs in this subsection, the Assessments shall never be
reduced to an amount less than the amount required to pay all outstanding debt service
requirements on all outstanding PID Bonds.
SECTION VII: ASSESSMENT ROLL
The Improvement Area #1 Assessment Roll is attached as Exhibit F-1. The Administrator shall
prepare and submit to the City Council for review and approval proposed revisions to the
Improvement Area #1 Assessment Roll and Improvement Area #1 Annual Installments for each
Parcel as part of each Annual Service Plan Update.
SECTION VIII: ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS
A. Calculation Errors
If the owner of a Parcel claims that an error has been made in any calculation required by this
Service and Assessment Plan, including, but not limited to, any calculation made as part of any
Annual Service Plan Update, the owner's sole and exclusive remedy shall be to submit a written
notice of error to the Administrator by December 1s1 of each year following City Council's
approval of the calculation. Otherwise, the owner shall be deemed to have unconditionally
approved and accepted the calculation. The Administrator shall provide a written response to
the City Council and the owner not later than 30 days after receipt of such written notice of error
by the Administrator. The City Council shall consider the owner's notice of error and the
Administrator's response at a public meeting, and, not later than 30 days after closing such
meeting, the City Council shall make a final determination as to whether an error has been made.
If the City Council determines that an error has been made, the City Council shall take such
corrective action as is authorized by the PID Act, this Service and Assessment Plan, the applicable
Assessment Ordinance, the applicable Indenture, or as otherwise authorized by the discretionary
power of the City Council. The determination by the City Council as to whether an error has been
made, and any corrective action taken by the City Council, shall be final and binding on the owner
and the Administrator.

be final and binding on the owners of Assessed Property and developers and their successors and
assigns.

an Assessment Plan or any future Annual Service Plan Updates shall be filed and recorded in their
entirety.
E. Severability
If any provision of this Service and Assessment Plan is determined by a governmental agency or
court to be unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be deleted and, to the maximum
extent possible, shall be rewritten to be enforceable. Every effort shall be made to enforce the
remaining provisions.

SUBJECT: EXCESSIVE STRENGTH SEWER ORDINANCE
DATE: July 14, 2025
BACKGROUND:
The City of Paris has an independent rate consultant perform a cast -of -service study each year. In
addition to the water contract rates, commercial water & sewer rates, and the residential water and
sewer rates, the study determines the rates for excessive strength sewer that some industries place
in the City's wastewater system. This excessive strength sewer costs the City more to treat. The
rate study produces rates that allow the City to calculate and bill a surcharge to those industries
who generate excessive strength sewer. To be considered normal strength, sewer cannot exceed
250 parts per million biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), 250 parts per million of total suspended
solids (TSS), or 30 parts per million of ammonia (NH3).
STATUS OF ISSUE: On June 9, 2025, the City Council was presented with the study results by
NewGen Strategies & Solutions. The recommended rates are $2.29 per pound of excess BOD,
$1.25 per pound of excess TSS, and $1.08 per pound of excess of NH3.
BUDGET: The proposed ordinance goes into effect July 1, 2025. Revenue generated from this
surcharge amounts to about $20,000 per year.
OPTIONS:
1. Approve the proposed excessive strength sewer rate ordinance.
2. Reject the proposed ordinance and give city staff further directions.
RECOMMENDATION:
Motion to approve the proposed excessive sewer strength rate ordinance.

FROM: Gene Anderson, Interim Finance Director
SUBJECT: SUSPENSION OF ONCOR'S PROPOSED RATE INCREASE
DATE: July 14, 2025
BACKGROUND: Last month Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC ("Oncor") filed an
application with cities retaining original jurisdiction seeking to increase its revenues by 13% or
$834 million. This request includes a 12.3% increase in residential rates ($7.90 per month average
increase) and a 51.0% increase in street lighting rates. These rates are scheduled to go into effect
July 31, 2025. State law (PURA § 36.108) allows the City to suspend the rate increase for 90 days
so that the request can be reviewed by the City. As a member of the Steering Committee of Cities
Served by Oncor (170 cities are members), the Steering Committee will engage legal counsel and
consultants to review Oncor's application for the member cities. This review will not cost the City
any money as State law PURA § 33.023 provides that such costs be reimbursed by Oncor. The
Steering Committee will pay the necessary costs and be reimbursed by Oncor.
STATUS OF ISSUE: The staff is presenting a resolution for your consideration which suspends
the rate increase for 90 days while the rate application is being reviewed. Later, the staff will come
back with a rate resolution which represents a negotiated rate increase for the Council's
consideration.
BUDGET: This action will not impact the City budget.
RECOMMENDATION: Motion to approve the resolution suspending Oncor's proposed rate
increase.
MODEL STAFF REPORT
***ACTION MUST BE TAKEN TO SUSPEND THE EFFECTIVE DATE ON OR
BEFORE JULY 31, 2025***
PURPOSE
Oncor Electric Delivery Company ("Oncor" or "the Company") filed an application on or
about June 26, 2025 with cities retaining original jurisdiction seeking to increase system -wide
transmission and distribution rates by about $834 million or approximately 13% over present
revenues. The Company asks the City to approve a 12.3% increase in residential rates and a
51.0% increase in street lighting rates. If approved, an average residential customer would see a
bill increase of about $7.90 per month.
The resolution suspends the July 31, 2025 effective date of the Company's rate increase
for the maximum period permitted by law to allow the City, working in conjunction with the
Steering Committee of Cities Served by Oncor, to evaluate the filing, determine whether the
filing complies with law, and if lawful, to determine what further strategy, including settlement,
to pursue.
The law provides that a rate request made by an electric utility cannot become effective
until at least 35 days following the filing of the application to change rates. The law permits the
City to suspend the rate change for 90 days after the date the rate change would otherwise be
effective. If the City fails to take some action regarding the filing before the effective date,
Oncor's rate request is deemed administratively approved.
DISCUSSION
The City of Paris, Texas is a member of a 170 -city coalition known as the Steering
Committee of Cities Served by Oncor ("Steering Committee"). The Steering Committee has
been in existence since the late 1980s. It took on a formal structure in the early 1990s when
cities served by the former TXU gave up their statutory right to rate case expense reimbursement
in exchange for higher franchise fee payments. Empowered by city resolutions and funded by
per capita assessments, the Steering Committee has been the primary public interest advocate
before the Public Utility Commission, the Courts, and the Legislature on electric utility
regulation matters for the last 30 years.
Although Oncor has increased rates many times over the past few years, this is the first
comprehensive base rate case for the Company since May 2022.
Ex planation of "Be It Resolved" Para gra hs;
Section 1. The City is authorized to suspend the rate change for 90 days after the date
that the rate change would otherwise be effective for any legitimate purpose. Time to study and
investigate the application is always a legitimate purpose. Please note that the resolution refers
to the suspension period as "the maximum period allowed by law" rather than ending by a
specific date. This is because the Company controls the effective date and can extend the
1669/70/9042097
deadline for final city action to increase the time that the City retains jurisdiction if necessary to
reach settlement on the case. If the suspension period is not otherwise extended by the
Company, the City must take final action on Oncor's request to raise rates by July 31, 2025.
Section 2. This provision authorizes the Steering Committee, consistent with the City's
resolution approving membership in the Steering Committee, to act on behalf of the City at the
local level in settlement discussions, in preparation of a rate ordinance, on appeal of the rate
ordinance to the PUC, and on appeal to the Courts. Negotiating clout and efficiency are
enhanced by the City cooperating with the Steering Committee in a common review and
common purpose. Additionally, rate case expenses are minimized when the Steering Committee
hires one set of attorneys and experts who work under the guidance and control of the Executive
Committee of the Steering Committee.
Section ). The Company will reimburse the Steering Committee for its reasonable rate
case expenses. Legal counsel and consultants approved by the Executive Committee of the
Steering Committee will submit monthly invoices that will be forwarded to Oncor for
reimbursement. No individual city incurs liability for payment of rate case expenses by adopting
a suspension resolution.
Section 4. This section merely recites that the resolution was passed at a meeting that
was open to the public and that the consideration of the Resolution was properly noticed.
Section 5. This section provides that both Oncor and Steering Committee counsel will be
notified of the City's action by sending a copy of the approved and signed resolution to certain
designated individuals.

SUBJECT: APPOINTMENT TO HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION
DATE: July 14, 2025
BACKGROUND: Policies and Procedures for Boards & Commissions adopted by City Council
(amended March 10, 2025) require that appointments be made at a special City Council meeting

STATUS OF ISSUE: On July 1, 2025, City Staff presented applications for board appointments
to the City Council for consideration. Ms. Millicent Kee was serving as an alternate for HPC, her

having applied for Building & Standards, she was appointed, and Ms. Kee declined the
appointment down stating that she could not make the meetings for that board because of the
meeting times. She also explained that she had hoped to get back on HPC.
While continuing to work through the lists in an effort to get all of the new information included,
Staff determined that there was one vacancy on the Historic Preservation Commission
BUDGET: N/A
RECOMMENDATION: Appoint Millicent Kee to the vacant position on the Historic
Preservation Commission.
