ITEM 7. REGULAR AGENDA
NEW BUSINESS
a. Attached are the minutes of July 28, 2025, regular meeting and July 23, 2025 budget
workshop meeting.
b. The Director of the Marion & Ed Hughes Public Library is requesting approval to submit
a 2024 grant application to the Wilton and Effie Mae Hebert Foundation. The grant
request will be for $50,000 and includes 1) $ 30,000 for Collection Development, the
purchase of new and replacement fiction and nonfiction titles, books on CD, DVDs,
digital materials, etc. 2) $2,000 for new patron counter and new dedicated tablet to use
for the counter 3) $4,000 for new shelving for the DVD collection 4) $4,000 for
contractual services – annual subscription to HelpNow and JobNow by Brainfuse; and 5)
$10,000 for performance fees for children’s and miscellaneous programs, promotional
materials and miscellaneous equipment. There is no local match for this grant. The Library
Director recommends approval of this item; I concur with Mrs. Hall’s recommendation.
c. City Council will discuss and consider a request from Mr. Johnny Powell for an
extension to comply with city directives.
d. At the August 12, 2024 City Council meeting, staff was authorized to solicit bids for the
South 5th Street Roadway Improvements project. In the 600 block of South 5th Street, a
“sinkhole” was found in early June 2024. In 2023, South 5th Street between Ave H and
Nederland Avenue was re-surfaced; which included repairs to a spot in the vicinty that
was sinking. In the 1990s, a similar issue was addressed in this area. Since June 2024,
the Public Works staff attempted to identify the cause of this repeated issue and solicited
assistance from Soutex Engineers. It was determined by Soutex that it was necessary to
complete repairs to the nearby manhole and then resurface the road as shown in the
photos.
The original bid opening was scheduled for August 29, 2024, however no bids were
received. Staff restarted the bidding process, and bids were opened September 24, 2024
with two received bids. The project engineer provided an alternative to help reduce the
unknown risks associated with the construction and to help decrease the construction
time; the change was to help reduce the possibiliy of future pavement failure by reducing
weight in the area. At the October 14, 2024 meeting, City Council awarded the South 5th
Street Roadway Improvements project to the lowest responsible bidder-ALLCO LLC in
the amount of $191,940. The final contract price is $204,925.00 which includes change
order #1 in the amount of $12,985. The change order includes final quantities of asphalt
and cement stabilized sand to complete the work. The Public Works Director
recommends approval.
e. Attached is a proposal for discussion and possible action on an engineering services
agreement between the City of Nederland and Westwood Professional Service, Inc. to
provide professional civil and electrical engineering services relating to Nederland
Avenue and Canal Avenue Lift Station Rehabilitation. The project consists of preparing
plans and bid documents for the rehabilitation of two lift stations. Following findings
from the lift station evaluation for Nederland and Canal Avenue lift stations, the project
will require complete mechanical and electrical replacements for both lift stations and
off-site force mains realignment for the Nederland Avenue lift station. A single set of
plans will be produced for both stations so they may be bid together. Westwood will also
provide a topographic survey of each station site. City will provide all available record
drawings and any additional available information such as pump nameplate, operational
data, service order history, etc. Compensation for professional services shall be a lump
sum fee of $327,250.00 for both lift stations and includes project management, design
(w/electrical), bid phase services, construction phase services (w/coating inspection)
topographic survey and Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE), geotechnical services, and
direct expenses. The cost of engineering services will be paid from remaining funds in
the 2018 Tax & Revenue Certificates of Obligation. The Public Works Director
recommends approval.
f. Deshaun Armstrong, Customer Service Manager of Entergy, will discuss Entergy’s storm
readiness. In addition, Mr. Armstrong will also discuss Entergy’s app and how to report
and check for outages.
g. The Nederland Economic Development Corporation (NEDC) requests the closure of
Boston Avenue between 15th Street and 17th Street (to the Entergy Right of Way past the
Heritage Festival Office) on Thursdays, October 2nd, October 9th, October 16th, and
October 23rd for the fall music concerts from 5:00p.m. to 9:00p.m. The concerts will be
held on the large parking area in front of the offices of the Chamber of Commerce,
NEDC, and Heritage Festival. Issues regarding food trucks, port-a-potties, security, trash
collection, barricades, etc. will be addressed by the NEDC. The City’s cost will be
overtime to assist with barricades, as well as additional garbage collection the day after
the concert. I recommend approval.
h. The Nederland Economic Development Corporation requests the closure of Boston Ave
between Twin City Highway and 14th Street on Saturday, October 18th for the Fall
Market Day. The street would be closed by the “Welkom to Nederland Arch” to ensure
traffic off of Twin City Highway has a turnaround area. The street and intersections
would be closed from 7:00a.m.to 5:30p.m. I recommend approval.
i. City Council will receive comments from Greg Miller regarding the City’s infrastructure
and ongoing improvements. Requested by Councilman Jones.
j. City Council will discuss appointing members to the Construction Board of Appeals.
k. Attached is Ordinance 2025-13 regarding mowing debris. This Ordinance amends the
Code of Ordinances Chapter 54 Health and Sanitation, Article III-Sanitation, to add Sec.
54-78 prohibiting yard waste on City property. The City desires to protect drainage
within the City and help ensure safety of motorcyclists by preventing slippery surfaces
and maintaining clear roadways and sidewalks. Requested by Mayor Darby
l. Attached is Ordinance 2025-14 amending the fiscal year 2024-2025 budget in accordance
with the Ordinance 2024-18 which states “That any unencumbered funds remaining on
hand at the end of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2024, shall be construed with and
classified with Miscellaneous revenue anticipated during the fiscal year beginning
October 1, 2024, and ending September 30, 2025. The Inspections Department has an
unfilled position for Administrative Secretary and both Chief Building Official and
Assistant Building Official are required to perform duties normally performed by the
secretarial position. The additional work prevents them from performing their main
duties and has caused inefficiencies in the department. There are insufficient funds in the
current year budget to hire the Administrative Secretary without a budget amendment. I
recommend approval of Ordinance 2025-14 to increase the Inspections Department
Budget by $7,000 in personnel services line items. I recommend approval of this item.
m. At the July 14, 2025, City Council meeting, council considered an item to approve adding
“Event Centers” to the zoning districts C-2-neighborhood retail commercial, C-3-
highway retail commercial, I-L-industrial light and I-M industrial medium with a parking
group of #3 (One space for each 300 square feet of net building floor space.) The City
Council postponed amending the zoning text of table 13.2 until the August 11, 2025
council meeting in order to receive further information on the definition of an “event
center” and possible parking issues and size of the proposed center. George Wheeler,
Chief Building Official, prepared a memorandum with additional information as
requested by council. He has included two definitions of “Event Center” shown below:
NEDC definition: premises which are frequently rented out for public or private activities
are not repeated on a weekly basis, and which are not open to the public on a daily basis
at times other than when an event is scheduled.
Google definition: a venue designed to host a variety of gatherings, including public
performances, sporting events, private parties, and other attractions. It typically offers
dedicated event spaces, catering services, and audio-visual equipment. Event Center can
range from large, multi-purpose facilities to smaller more intimate spaces, and may
include features like conference rooms, banquet halls and outdoor areas.
Mr. Wheeler spoke with the planning and zoning chairman, it was mentioned that the
term event centers could or should be listed as a specific use in C-2, C-3, I1 and I2 zoning
districts. The size of a commercial structure is regulated by the building code. In Mr.
Wheeler’s memo, he stated that the most stringent parking group could be required (1
space for every 100 sq. ft. of floor space.) Mr. Wheeler will be available to answer any
questions council may have to determine if and how “Event Center” should be listed as a
new land use to table 13.2 “Schedule of permitted uses” with the appropriate parking
group.
n. Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Proposed Budget
i. Attached is Resolution No. 2025-11. The City Charter requires that a proposed budget
be presented to the City Council. At the budget workshop held on July 23rd, a
preliminary budget was presented to council with changes made after the workshop
per direction from City Council. A public hearing must be scheduled to solicit public
input/comments regarding the budget. A copy of the budget was submitted to the City
Clerk 30 days prior to the scheduled approval of the budget in accordance with state
law, a copy of the budget will be available in the City Clerk’s Office and posted on
the City’s website. I recommend approval of Resolution No. 2025-11 setting the
budget public hearing date for Monday, August 25th at 6:00p.m. at the Nederland City
Hall. The budget would be adopted at the September 8th City Council meeting.
ii. The current tax rate is $0.426791 per $100 assessed taxable value. As calculated by
the Jefferson County Tax Office, the no-new revenue tax rate is $0.413221 per $100
assessed taxable value, and the voter approval tax rate is $0.467188 per $100 assessed
taxable value. On Monday, July 21st, JCAD submitted the assessed taxable value of
$1,811,461,859, an increase of $65,894,081 over 2024 or 3.7749%. I recommend the
City Council increase the tax rate to $0.451000 per $100 assessed taxable value. This
rate falls between the no-new revenue tax rate of $0.413221 and the voter approval
tax rate of $0.467188 per $100 assessed valuation. The proposed budget is based on
recommended tax rate of $0.451000. Per state law, it is necessary for the City to hold
a public hearing on the proposed tax rate; the proposed tax rate public hearing is
scheduled for Monday, September 8th. The subsequent agenda items are included to
satisfy legal requirements.

Total 0.426791 0.451000 0.024209
iii. In accordance with State law, it is necessary to schedule a tax rate adoption date. The
following schedule is proposed:
• Monday, September 8th at 6:00p.m. (regular meeting) at Nederland City Hall-
Adopt the Tax Rate
I recommend approval of this item.
iv. In accordance with State law, it is necessary to schedule a public hearing to allow any
citizens to voice comments, questions, or concerns regarding the proposed tax rate.
The Public Hearing would be held on Monday, September 8th at 6:00p.m. at
Nederland City Hall. I recommend approval of this item.

These General Conditions of Agreement for the Nederland Avenue and Canal St. Lift Station Rehabilitation (the “Project”), together with the attached Exhibits and any amendments hereto, are an agreement (collectively, the “Agreement”) between City of Nederland (“Client”), a Texas Governmental Entity, and Westwood Professional Services, Inc. (“Westwood”), a Texas corporation. Client and Westwood are each a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties” to this Agreement dated July 17, 2025 (the “Effective Date”).
1.01 BASIC AGREEMENT In exchange for the mutual covenants and promises contained in this Agreement and for good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree that Westwood shall provide, or cause to be provided, the professional services (the “Services”) set forth in this Agreement for Client in exchange for payment contemplated herein. In addition, Westwood shall provide drawings, specifications, plans, designs, work product, and other items
and materials as described in this Agreement (the “Deliverables”). 2.01 SCOPE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
A. Westwood. Westwood shall perform Services for the Project as set forth in the Scope of Services & Fee Proposal, attached and incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit “A”, in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement and consistent with the Project Schedule, attached and incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit “E”. Westwood reserves the right to augment its staff with employees and/or consultants as it deems appropriate to assist in the performance of Services for the Project
due to Project logistics, scheduling issues, and/or market conditions. The Deliverables and all other documents, software, data, intellectual property, and other work products created, developed, produced, delivered, performed, and/or provided by Westwood, whether in hard copy or in
electronic form, are instruments of service (“Instruments of Service”) for this Project, whether the Project is completed or not. B. Client. In addition to the other responsibilities described in this Agreement and/or imposed by law or in equity, Client shall have the following obligations: 1. Provide all information and criteria as to Client’s requirements, objectives, and expectations for the Project, including all numerical criteria that Client expects
Westwood and its consultants, if any, to meet, including all standards of development, design, and/or construction. 2. Provide Westwood all previous studies, plans, and/or other documents pertaining to
the Project, including but not limited to the contract with the property owner (the “Prime Contract”), if any, and all applicable data requested by Westwood. 3. Arrange for reasonable access to the Project site and other private or public property,
including any easements or other authorizations as required for Westwood to provide the Services. 4. Review all documents and/or oral reports presented by Westwood and render in writing
decisions pertaining thereto within a reasonable time so as not to delay the Services for the Project. 5. Apply for and furnish applicable approvals, licenses, and/or permits from
governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Project. 6. Furnish certifications and/or consents from other entities as may be necessary from time to time and in accordance with Section 10.01.C herein.
Westwood General Conditions of Agreement Page 2 of 13 Rev.2023
7. Be responsible for obtaining from others such independent accounting, legal, insurance, cost estimating, and overall feasibility services as Client may desire for the
Project. 8. Comply with all applicable safety guidelines at the Project site at its own expense. 9. Give reasonably prompt written notice to Westwood whenever Client becomes aware
of any development that affects the scope, timing, and/or payment of Westwood’s Services and/or any defect or noncompliance in any aspect of the Project. 10. Bear all costs incidental to the responsibilities of Client under this Agreement.
3.01 ADDITIONAL SERVICES A. The Parties recognize that the Project scope may change from time to time, and in such an event,
Westwood may furnish services in addition to those set forth in the Scope of Services & Fee Proposal, if authorized by Client in writing.
B. In such case(s), the Parties shall appropriately and reasonably adjust Westwood’s Services, the Project Schedule, and compensation for such additional services. Specifically, Client shall pay
Westwood for such additional services an amount equal to the cumulative hours charged to the Project by each class of Westwood’s employees multiplied by the rates for each applicable billing class plus reimbursable expenses and Westwood’s consultant charges, if any. Client shall also
adjust the budget and anticipated design and construction milestones, if any, as necessary to accommodate such changes to the Project Schedule. Additional Services may be documented in a
Project Change Order, a template of which is attached and incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit “E”. 4.01 PAYMENT PROCEDURES A. Compensation. Client shall compensate Westwood for its Services as set forth in the Compensation & Method of Payment/Fee Schedule, attached and incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit “B”, including any subsequent amendments and/or change orders. Client shall pay Westwood as follows:
1. Hourly. If the Services are agreed to be on an hourly basis, invoice amounts shall be in accordance with Westwood’s Fee Schedule in effect at the time when the Services are performed. Westwood’s standard hourly rates in the Fee Schedule shall be defined as
an amount equal to the cumulative hours charged to the Project by Westwood’s employees times standard hourly rates for each applicable billing class for all Services performed on the Project plus reimbursable expenses and Westwood’s consultant
charges, if any. Fee Schedule prices and rates are subject to change. 2. Lump Sum. If the Services are agreed to on a lump sum basis, invoice amounts shall be an amount equal to the percent of each task’s completion multiplied by the lump sum
of the task plus reimbursable expenses and Westwood’s consultant charges, if any. Reimbursable expenses are defined as project-related internal expenses to Westwood actually incurred plus all invoiced external reimbursable expenses allocable to the specific project, the latter of which is multiplied by a factor of 1.15. If applicable, when compensation to Westwood includes charges of Westwood’s consultants, those charges shall be the amounts billed by Westwood’s consultants to Westwood multiplied by a factor of 1.15. The consultant’s reimbursable expenses and Westwood’s factors include consultant
Westwood General Conditions of Agreement Page 3 of 13 Rev.2023
overhead and profit associated with Westwood’s responsibility for the administration of such services.
Fee estimates are included in the Scope of Services & Fee Proposal. Westwood may alter the distribution of compensation between individual phases of work to be consistent with Services
actually rendered. B. Preparation of Invoices. Westwood will prepare a monthly invoice in accordance with Westwood’s
standard invoicing practices and submit the invoice to Client. C. Payment of Invoices. Invoices are due and payable within thirty (30) days of receipt.
D. Termination or Suspension of Services. If Client fails to make any payment due to Westwood for fees, costs, or expenses within thirty (30) days of receipt of Westwood’s invoice, such failure shall be considered substantial nonperformance and cause for termination in accordance with Section 9.01.B.2.iii of this Agreement. Alternatively, Westwood may suspend Services under this
Agreement until Westwood has been paid in full for all amounts due and after giving seven (7) days advance written notice to Client. In the event of a suspension of Services, Westwood shall have no liability for delay or damage caused because of its suspension of Services. If Westwood
resumes its Services after being paid all amounts due, the Project and Fee Schedules may be equitably adjusted, if necessary.
E. Payment Disputes. Client shall provide written notification to Westwood within fourteen (14) days of receipt of the invoice should Client object to all or any part of the charges appearing on the invoice. Such written notice shall set forth, at a minimum, the specific portion of the invoice
disputed, the amount disputed, and the alleged factual and legal basis for the dispute. The portion of the invoice not in dispute shall be paid by Client within thirty (30) days receipt of said invoice, and the disputed portion shall be resolved in accordance with Section 8.01 herein.
In no event shall Client withhold amounts from Westwood’s compensation to impose a penalty or liquidated damages unless Westwood has been found liable for the amounts in a binding dispute resolution proceeding or lawsuit. Further, Westwood has the right to engage consultants to mitigate its damages, if needed. F. Taxes. Each Party shall be solely responsible for their own tax returns and payments required to be filed with or made to any federal, state or local tax authority with respect to this Agreement.
G. Attorney Fees. In the event that Westwood must retain an attorney or collection agency due to Client’s breach of this Agreement and/or to recover amounts due and owing to Westwood,
including any additional services authorized by Client in writing pursuant to Section 3.01, Client shall be liable for all fees, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees, incurred regardless of whether an action is filed or not.
H. Interest. Interest on any outstanding invoice balance past 30 days shall accrue at the rate of 1.25% per month or the highest rate permitted by law. Payments will be credited first to interest and then
to principal. 5.01 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
A. Ownership and License. Upon Westwood’s receipt of full payment for the Deliverables and/or Instruments of Services, Client shall be the owner of all right, title, and interest in and to any and
Westwood General Conditions of Agreement Page 4 of 13 Rev.2023
all Deliverables and/or Instruments of Service. Provide, however, that Westwood shall retain any ownership, copyright, and property interests in its standard systems, sections, details and
specification. B. Reuse. Deliverables and/or Instruments of Service are not intended or represented to be suitable
and are not licensed to Client for reuse, change, or alteration on extensions of the Project or on any other project without the express written permission of Westwood. Any unauthorized use of the Deliverables and/or Instruments of Service will be at the Client’s sole risk without legal exposure
or liability to Westwood. 6.01 GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS A. Standard of Care. The standard of care (“Standard of Care”) for all Services performed or furnished by Westwood under this Agreement will be the care and skill ordinarily used by members of Westwood’s profession practicing under similar circumstances at the same time and in the same locality. Westwood shall perform its Services as expeditiously as is consistent with such
professional skill and care and in accordance with the orderly progress of the Project. B. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND GUARANTEES. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 6.01.A ABOVE, WESTWOOD MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO WESTWOOD’S SERVICES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. WESTWOOD HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR WARRANTIES IMPOSED BY LAW, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND/OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THESE SERVICES AND THIS DISCLAIMER EXTEND TO ALL WESTWOOD DELIVERY SERVICES, SOFTWARE, DATA, AND ALL OTHER WESTWOOD WORK PRODUCT AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. FURTHER, WESTWOOD NEITHER GUARANTEES THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING CONTRACTORS, USING THE DELIVERABLES OR SERVICES NOR ASSUMES ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY THIRD PARTY’S FAILURE TO FURNISH OR PERFORM ANY WORK THAT USES THE DELIVERABLES OR SERVICES. C. Compliance with Laws. The Parties will apply the Standard of Care identified in Section 6.01.A and will comply with applicable laws, codes, regulations, and ordinances in effect during the term of this Agreement, which to the best of each Party’s knowledge, information, and belief, apply to
each Party’s respective obligations. D. Right of Entry. Client grants to Westwood, and, if the Project site is not owned by Client, shall
obtain permission for, a reasonable right of entry, access, and/or easement from time to time by Westwood, its employees, agents, and/or consultants upon the Project site for the purpose of providing the Services. Upon written request and approval by Westwood, Westwood may assist
Client in obtaining necessary permits and/or licenses related to rights of entry and/or easements in order for Westwood and Westwood’s consultants, if any, to adequately access and perform Services at the Project site under this Agreement.
E. Underground Data and Investigative Equipment. Client shall advise and provide Westwood with all information and data in its possession concerning the type and location of all underground
utilities, both public and private, as applicable. Client recognizes that the use of investigative equipment and practices may unavoidably alter the existing Project site conditions and affect the environment in the area being studied despite the use of reasonable care. To the extent allowed by
Westwood General Conditions of Agreement Page 5 of 13 Rev.2023
Texas law, Client shall indemnify and hold Westwood harmless from claims for damages caused by reasons of Westwood’s provision of Services under this Section.
F. Reliance on Client-Provided Data. Client shall be responsible for—and Westwood and its consultants, if any, may use and/or rely upon—the accuracy and completeness of all requirements,
programs, instructions, reports, data, and other information furnished by Client or Client’s consultants, if any, including but not limited to Client’s contractors, manufacturers, and/or suppliers (collectively, “Client-Provided Data”). Westwood may use such Client-Provided Data in
performing or furnishing the Services under this Agreement, and Westwood shall coordinate the Services with the work provided by Client and/or Client’s consultants for the Project. G. Corrections. Within 60 days of delivery, if Client reasonably and timely notifies Westwood in writing of a deficiency(ies) with Westwood’s Services, Deliverables, and/or Instruments of Service, Westwood—as Client’s sole and exclusive remedy—shall correct such deficiency(ies) without additional compensation to Client within 60 days after Westwood’s receipt of Client’s written notice, except to the extent such action is directly attributable to deficiencies in Client-Provided
Data. If for any reason Westwood is not able to correct such deficiency(ies) within 60 days after Westwood’s receipt of Client’s written notice under this Section, Westwood will notify Client and will advise in writing the timeframe needed to correct the deficiency(ies) as expeditiously as
possible. H. Responsibility for Others. Westwood shall not be responsible for the acts, errors, or omissions of
any consultant(s), contractor(s), subconsultant(s), subcontractor(s), and/or supplier(s), or of any of their agents or employees or any other persons (except Westwood’s own employees or those for whom Westwood is legally responsible) furnishing or performing any work or for any decision
made on interpretations or clarifications of Deliverables or Instruments of Service without the consultation and advice of Westwood.
I. Non-Construction Phase Work. It is understood and agreed that if Westwood’s Services under this Agreement do not include construction-phase work, and that such work will be provided by Client or others on behalf of Client, then Client assumes all responsibility for interpretation of the Deliverables and/or Instruments of Service for construction observation and/or review. In such instances, if applicable, Client waives any and all claims against Westwood that may be in any way connected thereto. Further, Westwood shall not be required to make exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections of the Project to check the quality or quantity of the work for construction but will reasonably promptly report to Client known deviations, defects, and/or deficiencies, if any.
J. Hazardous Environmental Conditions. The Parties acknowledge this Agreement does not include any Services related to a hazardous environmental condition. Such conditions include, but are not
limited to the presence of, asbestos, polychlorinated byphenyls, petroleum, toxic substances or waste, and/or radioactive materials (collectively, “Hazardous Environmental Conditions”). If Westwood or any other entity or individual encounters a Hazardous Environmental Condition,
Westwood may, at its option and without liability for consequential, liquidated, or any other damages, suspend performance of Services on the portion of the Project affected thereby until Client (i) retains an appropriate specialist consultant and/or contractor to identify and, as
appropriate, abate, remediate, and/or remove the Hazardous Environmental Condition and (ii) warrants that the site is in full compliance with applicable laws, codes, regulations, and ordinances then in effect, if any. Westwood shall have no responsibility for the discovery, presence, handling,
removal, disposal of, or exposure of persons or property to any such Hazardous Environmental Condition in any form at the Project site.
Westwood General Conditions of Agreement Page 6 of 13 Rev.2023
K. Substitutions.

AND IN PART BY THE NEGLIGENCE OF CLIENT OR ANY OTHER NEGLIGENT ENTITY OR INDIVIDUAL SHALL NOT EXCEED THE PERCENTAGE SHARE THAT WESTWOOD’S NEGLIGENCE BEARS TO THE TOTAL NEGLIGENCE AT ISSUE. 3.

8.01 CLAIMS AND DISPUTES A. Notice. In addition to the provisions of Section 4.01.F above regarding payment disputes, if any other dispute, controversy, or claim (“Dispute”) should arise between the Parties relating to this Agreement, written notice of the Dispute shall be provided by the aggrieved Party to the other Party within 14 days of the instance giving rise to the Dispute.
B. Informal Dispute Resolution. After written notice of a Dispute, the Parties shall attend an in-person meeting, or by remote means if mutually agreeable, in the county where the Project is located or at another mutually agreeable venue. Each Party shall designate at least one person with authority to
act and bind the company on its behalf to attend the meeting in a good faith effort to resolve the Dispute and in a timely and cost-effective manner before any further escalation as detailed in this Section.
C. Mediation and Litigation. Should any Dispute fail to resolve during the meeting required under Section 8.01.B, such Dispute shall be submitted to mediation in accordance with the Construction
Industry Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American Arbitration Association as a condition precedent to arbitration. The Parties shall agree upon a mediator in the county where the project from which the Dispute arises is located or in another county if mutually agreed in writing
by the Parties. The Parties shall split any mediation fee(s) payable to the mediator to conduct the mediation. The Parties shall each be responsible for and bear their own separate costs and fees for the mediation. Any mediation or civil action by Client must be commenced within one year of the
Westwood General Conditions of Agreement Page 8 of 13 Rev.2023
accrual of the cause of action asserted but in no event later than allowed by applicable statutes. Should mediation fail, the Dispute shall be resolved by litigation to be held in the county where the
Project is located or in another county if mutually agreed in writing by the Parties. D. Subpoenas and Document Production. In the event Westwood is asked or forced through subpoena,
deposition, or otherwise to participate in a dispute resolution proceeding between Client and a third-party(ies), including but not limited to providing trial and pre-trial testimony and searching, reviewing, and/or producing documents, Westwood shall recover its costs, fees, and expenses
(including its attorney fees) and be compensated for all time spent at the highest rate provided in Exhibit “B”. E. Prevailing Party. In the event of a Dispute, mediation, arbitration, or litigation related to the enforcement of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reimbursement of its reasonable attorney fees, expenses, and costs in bringing or defending the action. As used herein, a “Prevailing Party” means the party that is afforded the greater relief (whether affirmatively or by means of a successful defense) with respect to the totality of claims, including counterclaims
and crossclaims, if any, and having the greatest value or importance as determined by the court, mediator, or arbitrator(s) allowing for all of the claims and defenses asserted. In claims for money damages, the total amount of recoverable attorney fees, expenses, and costs shall not exceed the
net monetary award or judgment of the prevailing party. F. Consolidation/Joinder. The Parties agree to consolidation and/or joinder with another pending
dispute resolution proceeding, if any, to the extent such consolidation and/or joinder (i) substantially involves common questions of law or fact; (ii) is in the interest of justice or is otherwise necessary to afford complete relief to the Parties hereto; and (iii) is permitted by the
judge, arbitrator, mediator, or other decision maker in the other dispute resolution proceeding. The Parties consent to consolidation and/or joinder under this Section even if the other dispute resolution proceeding is in a venue not provided for in this Agreement and/or otherwise is not
selected by the Parties hereto. G. Performance. Client shall continue its payment obligations in accordance with this Agreement during the pendency of any dispute resolution proceedings, including informal dispute resolution, mediation, arbitration, and/or litigation. 9.01 TERM AND TERMINATION
A. Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and remain in full force and effect for a period of one (1) year after Westwood’s completion of Services. This Agreement may be renewed by mutual written agreement of the Parties.
B. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated:
1. By either Party upon 30 days written notice in the event of failure by the other Party to perform in accordance with the Agreement’s terms through no fault of the terminating party.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement will not terminate as a result of a failure to perform in accordance with the Agreement if the Party receiving a notice of failure
to perform begins within seven (7) days of receipt of such notice to correct its failure and proceeds diligently to cure such failure within 30 days of receipt of said notice; provided, however, that if and to the extent such failure cannot be reasonably cured
Westwood General Conditions of Agreement Page 9 of 13 Rev.2023
within such 30 day period, and if such Party has diligently attempted to cure the same and thereafter continues diligently to cure the same, then the cure period provided for
herein shall extend up to, but in no case more than, 60 days after the date of receipt of the notice.
2. By Westwood: i. Upon seven (7) days written notice if Westwood believes that Westwood is
being requested by Client to furnish or perform services contrary to Westwood’s responsibilities as a licensed professional; ii. Upon seven (7) days written notice if Westwood’s Services for the Project are delayed or suspended for more than 90 days for reasons beyond Westwood’s control; or iii. Upon seven (7) days written notice if Client fails to make any payment due to Westwood in accordance with this Agreement.
Westwood shall have no liability to Client as a result of such termination in this Section.
3. In the event of a termination of this Agreement, the terminating Party may set the effective date of termination at a time up to 30 days later than would otherwise be provided to allow Westwood time to demobilize personnel and equipment from the
Project site; to complete tasks providing value that would otherwise be lost; to prepare notes as to the status of completed and uncompleted tasks; and/or to assemble Project materials in orderly files. Westwood shall be compensated for the time required to
complete such tasks. 10.01 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
A. Insurance. Westwood shall maintain insurances during the term of this Agreement as indicated in Exhibit “C”, attached and incorporated by reference herein. B. Independent Contractor. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to mean that Westwood and Client are engaging in an employer/employee relationship, joint venture, agency, fiduciary relationship, or partnership. The Parties shall at all times be and remain independent contractors of one another. Except as expressly agreed by the Parties in writing, neither Party shall
have any right or authority, express or implied, to assume or create any obligation of any kind, or to make any representation or warranty, on behalf of the other Party or to bind the other Party in any respect whatsoever. Neither Party shall have any obligation or duty to the other Party except as
expressly and specifically set forth herein, and no such obligation or duty shall be implied by or inferred from this Agreement or the conduct of the Parties hereunder.
C. Successors and Assigns. The Parties and the partners, successors, executors, administrators, and legal representatives of each Party are each hereby bound to the other Party to this Agreement and to the partners, successors, executors, administrators, and legal representatives (and said assigns)
of such other Party, in respect of all covenants, agreements, and obligations of this Agreement. Neither Party may assign, sublet, or transfer any rights under or interest (including, but without limitation, moneys that are due or may become due) under this Agreement without the written
consent of the other.
Westwood General Conditions of Agreement Page 10 of 13 Rev.2023
D. No Third-Party Rights. This Agreement shall not create any rights or benefits to entities other than to Client and Westwood, and all duties and responsibilities undertaken pursuant to this Agreement
will be for the sole benefit of Client and Westwood. No third party shall have the right to rely on Westwood’s Deliverables, Instruments of Service, or opinions rendered in connection with the Services without the written consent of Westwood and the third party’s agreement to be bound to
the same conditions and limitations as Client. E. Force Majeure. An event of force majeure (“Force Majeure”) occurs when an event beyond the
control of the Party claiming Force Majeure prevents such Party from fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement. An event of Force Majeure includes, without limitation, floods, hurricanes and other adverse weather conditions, war, riot, civil disorder, acts of terrorism, disease, epidemic, pandemic, strikes and labor disputes, actions or inactions of government or other authorities, law enforcement actions, curfews, closure of transportation systems or other unusual travel difficulties, or the inability to provide a safe working environment. In the event of a Force Majeure, the obligations of Westwood to perform Services shall be
suspended for the duration of the event of Force Majeure. In such event, Westwood shall be compensated for time expended and expenses incurred during the event of Force Majeure, and the Project Schedule shall be equitably extended by a like number of days as the event of Force
Majeure. If Services are suspended for 30 days or more, Westwood may, in its sole discretion and upon five
(5) days prior written notice, terminate this Agreement, the amendments hereto, if any, the affected change order(s), if any, or any of the above. In the case of such termination, and in addition to the compensation and time extension set forth above, Westwood shall be compensated for all
reasonable termination expenses. F. Choice of Law. This Agreement and any disputes arising out of or relating hereto and/or to this
Agreement, its formation, and/or the Exhibits hereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas. G. Survivability. Sections 5.01, 6.01.A-B, 7.01, and 8.01 included in this Agreement shall survive this Agreement’s completion or termination for any reason. H. Invalidity. Any provision or part of this Agreement held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable under any laws or regulations shall be deemed stricken, and all remaining provisions shall continue to be
valid and binding upon the Parties. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the stricken portion shall be revised to the extent necessary to make that provision legal and enforceable and shall give effect to the Parties’ intentions and purposes in executing this Agreement.
I. Conflicting Provisions. In the event the terms of these General Conditions conflict with the Agreement Exhibits, the Prime Contract, or any other applicable agreement, these General
Conditions as between Client and Westwood shall govern unless the Parties expressly agree in writing otherwise.
J. Notices. Any notice, request, demand, or other communication required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing, shall reference this Agreement, and shall be deemed to be properly given (i) when delivered personally; by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid;

EXHIBIT ‘A’ – SCOPE OF SERVICES NEDERLAND AVENUE AND CANAL AVENUE LIFT STATION REHABILITATION
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project consists of preparing plans and bid documents for rehabilitation of two (2) lift stations in the City of Nederland. In accordance with findings from the lift station evaluation performed for the Nederland Avenue and Canal Avenue lift stations the project will require complete mechanical and electrical replacement for both lift stations and offsite forcemain realignment for the Nederland Ave station. A single set of plans will be produced for both
stations so they may be bid together. Westwood will also provide topographic survey of each station site. City will provide all available record drawings and any additional available information such as pump nameplate, operational data, service order history,
etc. for the lift stations.
This scope includes a separate scope specific to each lift station and Basic Services which apply to both stations, with exceptions noted. Specific services are listed below. BASIC SERVICES – SPECIFIC SCOPE FOR EACH LIFT STATION

Determination of zoning districts for new unlisted land use
At last council meeting the City Council the public hearing was completed after a
lengthy discussion. The regular meeting immediately followed the public hearing. During
the regular meeting, the discussion was concerning a definition needed in the zoning
ordinance for event centers . Also more regulations for certain districts allowing the
event center use. The recommendation from the planning and zoning commission was
discussed. The recommendation was to allow event centers in C-2 , C-3 and 11 and 12
zoning districts. City Council tabled the item for more time to determine a definition to be
added and to get more information on possible additional regulations.
After taking to the planning and zoning chairman whom attended the meeting it was
mentioned that the term event centers could or should be listed as a specific use in C-2
C3 11 and 12 zoning districts.
For more regulations or review when permitting a specific use requirement could be
listed in all of these districts or one or two and leave others as a use by right. We could
require the most stringent parking group being parking group #1 (1 space for every 100
sq. ft. of floor space) and during the SUP review should the applicant prove an
unnecessary hardship is created to develop the required number of parking spaces the
SUP could be approved with the decreased number.
As for size of the Event Centers, our zoning ordinance area and height chart doesn 't list
maximum size of a commercial structure it is regulated by the building code.
If we are wanting to list a maximum sq . ft. of the structure in each district and maybe
other regulations we would need to step back and make a new ordinance section titled
Event Centers and then list regulations in that section as the council sees fit. It would be
similar to what we did for game rooms , food trucks , sexually oriented businesses and
massage establishments. Or these can be determined in the review process during
each specific use request.
I have reviewed different definitions for event centers and have listed two different
definitions. I like the definition with the language "no event shall be repeated on a
weekly basis". This is good because should an event be allowed to repeat on a weekly
basis it could be considered a separate occupancy type or the mixed occupancy type.
EDC example: Event Center: means premises which are frequently rented out for
public or private activities are not repeated on a weekly basis , and which are not open
to the public on a daily basis at times other than when an event is scheduled.
Google: An event center is a venue designed to host a variety of gatherings, including
public performances , sporting events , private parties, and other attractions. It typically
offers dedicated event spaces, catering services, and audio-visual equipment. Event
center can range from large , multi-purpose facilities to smaller more intimate spaces,
and may include features like conference rooms , banquet halls and outdoor areas .

Planning and Zoning Commission
George Wheeler, Chief Building Official
Determination of zoning districts for new unlisted land use
I have recently received inquiry about Event Centers located in Nederland. Upon
reviewing the City permitted use chart, I could not find the use of an event center listed
in the C-2 Neighborhood retail zoning district. In fact, I could not find the use event
center even listed in any other district. Also I could not find in C-2 list of permitted uses
any similar use that would have the same characteristics as an event center. So I have
nothing for interpretation as being a similar use to an event center use. In fact in all
other less restrictive districts like C-3 , Highway business zoning district I found only bars
and lounges as an approved use in C-3 but I could not justify comparing an event center
to a bar or lounge in a C-3 highway commercial district to refuse the event center use in
a C-2 district.
This review brings me to a conclusion that the event center use is clearly an unlisted
use. Further review brought me to section 6 Zoning Districts #6 titled New and unlisted
uses. This section describes a process for determination as to the appropriate
classifications of any new or unlisted land use. It requires the new or unlisted use to be
submitted to the planning and zoning commission, requesting an interpretation as to the
zoning classification into which such use should be placed.
The commission shall consider the nature and described performance of the proposed
use and its compatibility with the uses permitted in the various districts and determine
the zoning district where such use should be permitted. The commission shall transmit
its findings and recommendations to the city council. The city council having final
determination may approve, modify, or deny the recommendation of the commission.
The choices of the commission would be as follows:
• Determine if the use should be listed as a permitted use in C-1 Office
commercial, C-2 Neighborhood retail or C-3 Highway commercial, or
• Determine what districts the use should be prohibited , or
• Determine if the use should be listed as a specific use in any of the three
commercial districts.
For reference the areas that are zoning C-1 office commercial is very limited and best ·
described as parts of Boston Avenue from Twin City Hwy moving North down to Gage
Avenue on both sides of Boston Avenue.
For C-2 Neighborhood retail we have both sides of Boston Avenue from Twin City Hwy
moving south to 17th Street. Basically our down town area. Also zoned C-2 is all of
Nederland Avenue on both sides, parts of Twin City Hwy on the South side only, parts
of Helena Avenue and Avenue H and also parts of 27th Street.
For C-3; highway commercial of course, these districts are located on the highways of
Twin City, Hwy 365 and Hwy 69.
On an additional note we will have to determine a parking requirement for the new use.
In the permitted use chart each use listed has a number referencing their parking group.
The groups are defined in our parking table 19.1. off street parking requirements
table. Table 19.1 doesn't list the use only the number and its corresponding ratio for
calculating number of parking spaces. Example would be bars and lounges which is in
the parking group #2 and its ratio is calculated at "one space for each 200 sq. ft. of net
building floor area". A restaurant is in group #1 having a ratio of "one space for each
100 sq . ft. of net bui lding floor area".

several concerns about the request. They brought up noise from the business, parking,
discharge water from washing the vehicles prior to detailing, and to the amount of
additional traffic this business would create that will be added to the existing school
traffic on 18th Street. Mr. Nguyen commented that he is hopeful that the business will

August 11, 2025
Dear Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:
I am pleased to present the proposed Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Annual Budget for the City of Nederland. This document has been prepared in accordance with Article VII, Section 7.02 of the City Charter and includes financial information regarding the General Fund, Water and Sewer Fund, Solid Waste Fund, MCML Central Dispatch/IT Fund, and other special funds. The proposed
FY 2025-2026 budget for all funds totals $33,627,515.
The FY 2025-2026 Annual Budget reflects both the needs of the citizenry and the policy mandates of the City Council. The Budget is realistic, feasible, and cost-effective. It not only addresses the existing level of services which City staff has been directed to provide and which our citizens have
come to expect and deserve, but it also addresses issues that arose during the budget process. As
the elected officials of the City, the City Council performs a vital role in policymaking and the general well-being of the community. Policymaking requires that the City Council express its service objectives, particularly in terms of the services that the City Council believes will meet its goals for the community.
The Annual Budget is a fiscal blueprint for the implementation of plans and programs intended to establish service delivery levels sufficient to meet the City’s goals and objectives for FY 2025-2026. The Annual Budget is the single most important report presented to the City Council during the year. Although it is primarily intended for City Council policy determination, it also serves as
an aid to the citizens in providing a better understanding of the City's operating fiscal programs.
The budget has been built on conservative financial principles. Furthermore, the Budget serves as a guide for financial control and implementation of City Council policy mandates. BUDGET OVERVIEW
All City department requests were presented to the city manager/interim city manager, who after reviewing the requests, drafted a preliminary budget to present to the City Council at the July 23rd budget workshop. In accordance with the City Charter, the City Council shall adopt the budget and appropriate funds to different departments. Through a combination of the below-listed funds,
the mechanisms have been created which allow for the providing of services to the citizens of
Nederland:

The proposed budget for FY 2025-2026 includes a 2% cost of living adjustment (COLA) for all
full-time employees, including police officers and firefighters whose salaries are covered by
respective collective bargaining agreements (CBA). In addition, funds are allocated for the “steps” of all full-time employees who are eligible for a “step” on the City’s General Wage Scale. The proposed budget allocates funds to meet the terms of the Nederland Police Officers
Association’s collective bargaining agreement. The CBA includes a 2% COLA, police officer,
police sergeant, and lieutenant pay scale adjustments, clothing allowance adjustments, stipend for special response team members, adjusting the bilingual pay stipend, adjusting the field training officer stipend, revising the certification pay, and increasing cell phone allowance.
The proposed budget allocates funds to meet the terms of the International Association of
Firefighters, Local 3339’s collective bargaining agreement. The City and fire union negotiated a new five-year CBA effective October 1, 2021. The CBA includes a 2% COLA and the continuation of the negotiated pay adjustments, including a residency incentive to own a home or rent in Nederland, an enhanced physical fitness incentive, an enhanced certification pay, etc.
The proposed budget includes funds to implement a Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS) enhancement to include a retiree 30% COLA non-retroactive option to the City’s current plan option. The last time a retiree COLA was offered was in 1984. Effective January 1, 2026, the City’s contribution shall increase from 7.92% to 11.27%; the contribution increase is due in part,
to increasing salaries and the retiree COLA option. Overall, the City’s pension fund is in a strong
position. The proposed budget includes three new positions: a property maintenance worker in Property Maintenance Department to provide assistance to all departments for building maintenance or
scheduling of repairs. An Inspector position was added to the Inspections Department to assist
with the workload of building inspections and code enforcement. A dispatcher was added to the MCML Central Dispatch to help reduce overtime costs. CONCLUSION
As you are aware, many cities throughout the nation, state, and region continue to encounter financial difficulties. Revenues have flattened, decreased, or increased lethargically while the costs and demands to provide services have continued to increase. Many affected local governments have addressed their budgetary shortfalls via personnel reductions and/or significant
decreases in service delivery. Unfortunately, the City of Nederland is neither unique nor isolated
from the economic factors that impact municipal revenue sources. In responding to these conditions, management has undertaken budgetary efforts to promote greater financial efficiency and effectiveness. It is important to remember that many of the same economic conditions that influence the City also directly impact citizens/taxpayers themselves and, as such, recognition
must be given to this circumstance when considering budgetary decisions.
The proposed FY 2025-2026 Annual Budget attempts to minimize the impact of the current economic condition on City operations. Without question, service delivery within several areas has been and will continue to be moderately impacted as a result of monetary constraints. But the

City’s commitment to progress has not and will not waver during this difficult period by ignoring or postponing our community’s needs. Instead, progress will continue while balancing the needs
of the taxpayer and our employees. The City has placed considerable focus on public safety, code
enforcement and infrastructure improvements. As we look toward tomorrow, we must discover ways to focus on creating a future that will be more prosperous for Nederland. Years of investment—public and private, monetary and non-
monetary, emotional and unemotional—have shaped our community and made Nederland a place
one can be proud to live, visit, or do business in. It should be our goal to honor the history of our community and those investments made as we aspire to make the best Nederland possible. In closing, I would like to especially thank Heather Stucker, Stephanie Gaspard, Joni Underwood,
Carolyn Hale, and each department head for their dedicated assistance in preparing the FY 2025-
2026 budget. The staff and I look forward to working with the City Council and the community to meet the challenges of the fiscal year. Respectfully submitted,

DEBT SERVICE FUND
The Debt Service Fund is established by ordinances authorizing the issuance of bonds and
providing for the payment of bond principal and interest as they come due. An ad valorem
(property) tax rate and tax levy is required to be computed and levied which will be
sufficient to produce the money to satisfy annual debt service requirements. In addition,
some debt issues are funded by Water & Sewer revenues.

GENERAL INFORMATION: Tax Code Section 26.04(c) requires an officer or employee designated by the governing body to calculate the no-new-revenue (NNR) tax rate and
voter-approval tax rate for the taxing unit. These tax rates are expressed in dollars per $100 of taxable value calculated. The calculation process starts after the chief appraiser
delivers to the taxing unit the certified appraisal roll and the estimated values of properties under protest. The designated officer or employee shall certify that the officer or
employee has accurately calculated the tax rates and used values shown for the certified appraisal roll or certified estimate. The officer or employee submits the rates to the
governing body by Aug. 7 or as soon thereafter as practicable.
School districts do not use this form, but instead use Comptroller Form 50-859 Tax Rate Calculation Worksheet, School District without Chapter 313 Agreements or Comptroller Form
50-884 Tax Rate Calculation Worksheet, School District with Chapter 313 Agreements.
Water districts as defined under Water Code Section 49.001(1) do not use this form, but instead use Comptroller Form 50-858 Water District Voter-Approval Tax Rate Worksheet for
Low Tax Rate and Developing Districts or Comptroller Form 50-860 Developed Water District Voter-Approval Tax Rate Worksheet.
The Comptroller’s office provides this worksheet to assist taxing units in determining tax rates. The information provided in this worksheet is offered as technical assistance and not
legal advice. Taxing units should consult legal counsel for interpretations of law regarding tax rate preparation and adoption.
SECTION 1: No-New-Revenue Tax Rate
The NNR tax rate enables the public to evaluate the relationship between taxes for the prior year and for the current year based on a tax rate that would produce the same amount
of taxes (no new taxes) if applied to the same properties that are taxed in both years. When appraisal values increase, the NNR tax rate should decrease.
The NNR tax rate for a county is the sum of the NNR tax rates calculated for each type of tax the county levies.
While uncommon, it is possible for a taxing unit to provide an exemption for only maintenance and operations taxes. In this case, the taxing unit will need to calculate the NNR tax
rate separately for the maintenance and operations tax and the debt tax, then add the two components together.

SECTION 2: Voter Approval Tax Rate
The voter-approval tax rate is the highest tax rate that a taxing unit may adopt without holding an election to seek voter approval of the rate. The voter-approval tax rate is split
into two separate rates:
1. Maintenance and Operations (M&O) Tax Rate: The M&O portion is the tax rate that is needed to raise the same amount of taxes that the taxing unit levied in the prior year
plus the applicable percentage allowed by law. This rate accounts for such things as salaries, utilities and day-to-day operations.
2. Debt Rate: The debt rate includes the debt service necessary to pay the taxing unit’s debt payments in the coming year. This rate accounts for principal and interest on bonds
and other debt secured by property tax revenue.
The voter-approval tax rate for a county is the sum of the voter-approval tax rates calculated for each type of tax the county levies. In most cases the voter-approval tax rate
exceeds the no-new-revenue tax rate, but occasionally decreases in a taxing unit’s debt service will cause the NNR tax rate to be higher than the voter-approval tax rate.

SECTION 3: NNR Tax Rate and Voter Approval Tax Rate Adjustments for Additional Sales Tax to Reduce Property Taxes
Cities, counties and hospital districts may levy a sales tax specifically to reduce property taxes. Local voters by election must approve imposing or abolishing the additional sales
tax. If approved, the taxing unit must reduce its NNR and voter-approval tax rates to offset the expected sales tax revenue.
This section should only be completed by a county, city or hospital district that is required to adjust its NNR tax rate and/or voter-approval tax rate because it adopted the
additional sales tax.

SECTION 5: Voter Approval Tax Rate Adjustment for Unused Increment Rate
The unused increment rate is the rate equal to the sum of the prior 3 years Foregone Revenue Amounts divided by the current taxable value. 42 The Foregone Revenue Amount for each
year is equal to that year’s adopted tax rate subtracted from that year’s voter-approval tax rate adjusted to remove the unused increment rate multiplied by that year’s current total
value. 43
The difference between the adopted tax rate and adjusted voter-approval tax rate is considered zero in the following scenarios:
• a tax year in which a taxing unit affected by a disaster declaration calculates the tax rate under Tax Code Section 26.042; 44
• a tax year in which the municipality is a defunding municipality, as defined by Tax Code Section 26.0501(a); 45 or
• after Jan. 1, 2022, a tax year in which the comptroller determines that the county implemented a budget reduction or reallocation described by Local Government Code
Section 120.002(a) without the required voter approval. 46
This section should only be completed by a taxing unit that does not meet the definition of a special taxing unit. 47

SECTION 7: Voter Approval Tax Rate Adjustment for Emergency Revenue Rate
In the tax year after the end of the disaster calculation time period detailed in Tax Code Section 26.042(a), a taxing unit that calculated its voter-approval tax rate in the manner
provided for a special taxing unit due to a disaster must calculate its emergency revenue rate and reduce its voter-approval tax rate for that year.50
Similarly, if a taxing unit adopted a tax rate that exceeded its voter-approval tax rate, calculated normally, without holding an election to respond to a disaster, as allowed by Tax
Code Section 26.042(d), in the prior year, it must also reduce its voter-approval tax rate for the current tax year. 51
This section will apply to a taxing unit other than a special taxing unit that:
• directed the designated officer or employee to calculate the voter-approval tax rate of the taxing unit in the manner provided for a special taxing unit in the prior year; and
• the current year is the first tax year in which the total taxable value of property taxable by the taxing unit as shown on the appraisal roll for the taxing unit submitted by the
assessor for the taxing unit to the governing body exceeds the total taxable value of property taxable by the taxing unit on January 1 of the tax year in which the disaster
occurred or the disaster occurred four years ago.This section will apply to a taxing unit in a disaster area that adopted a tax rate greater than its voter-approval tax rate
without holding an election in the prior year.
Note: This section does not apply if a taxing unit is continuing to calculate its voter-approval tax rate in the manner provided for a special taxing unit because it is still within the
disaster calculation time period detailed in Tax Code Section 26.042(a) because it has not met the conditions in Tax Code Section 26.042(a)(1) or (2).
