Submitted by: Robert Kotasek
Submitting Department: Engineering
Item Type: Resolution
Agenda Section:
Subject:
Consider approving a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an Engineering Services Contract in
the amount of $120,000.00 with Freese and Nichols, Inc. to prepare an update to the City Water Master Plan.
(Hartline)
Suggested Action:
Background:
City Council approved funding for the update to the City Water Master Plan in the 2024-2025 CIP budget. The
current City Water Master Plan was prepared in 2018. Since that time, significant development has occurred in
Austin Ranch, the SH 121 corridor, Grandscape and the Tribute Peninsula. Substantial water infrastructure has
been added within these areas and the Water Master Plan needs to be updated to better represent current and
future demands for the city. This request is for approval of an Engineering Services Contract with Freese and
Nichols, Inc. to prepare an updated City Water Master Plan.
The proposed update will address current and future water supply demands for the city to include new water
infrastructure since the last plan and proposed future improvements. The project includes data gathering,
temporary pressure testing, review and updating of water usage and flow projections (using actual flow and
billing data), creating steady state and extended period simulation hydraulic modeling of the existing and future
distribution systems, evaluating proposed future distribution system needs, evaluating what future capital
improvements are needed, and producing a final Master Plan Report. The final report will determine the future
water demands and the capital improvements needed throughout the City for future 5 year, 10 year and build
out conditions.
The contract is for a not to exceed lump sum fee of $120,000.00. Staff recommends approval of the contract
with Fresse and Nichols, Inc.

Subject: Road Markings
Reflective paints and materials used for road markings are a fundamental component of road
safety and traffic management by significantly enhancing visibility during nighttime and adverse
weather conditions. These markings can help drivers maintain their lanes and navigate
intersections, and help warn drivers of upcoming changes in the traffic pattern.
An often asked question is why markings have to be reapplied so often, texture deterioration by
tire polishing on pavement surfaces reduces the adhesion ability of the paint and thermal tape,
thermal cycles in the weather and oils and other liquids that penetrate the concrete also reduce
the paint and thermal tapes adhesion ability, requiring in some cases yearly reapplications.
Project includes: surface prep, stop bars, traffic buttons, solid/skip lines and bull nose reflectors.

regulations as the Paying Agent/Registrar and the City may prescribe. The Paying
Agent/Registrar shall obtain, record, and maintain in the Security Register the name and address
of each Holder of the Certificates issued under and pursuant to the provisions of this Ordinance.

duly authorized agent, upon surrender of such Certificate to the Paying Agent/Registrar at the
Designated Payment/Transfer Office for cancellation, accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer or request for exchange duly executed by the Holder or by his duly authorized agent, in
form satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar.

authorized in Section 8 hereof) at the Designated Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying
Agent/Registrar, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall register and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates, executed on behalf of, and
furnished by, the City, of authorized denominations and having the same Stated Maturity and of
a like aggregate principal amount as the Certificate or Certificates surrendered for transfer.
At the option of the Holder, Certificates (other than the Initial Certificate(s) authorized in
Section 8 hereof) may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations and
having the same Stated Maturity, bearing the same rate of interest, and of like aggregate principal
amount as the Certificates surrendered for exchange upon the surrender of the Certificates to be
exchanged at the Designated Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar. Whenever

deliver new Certificates, executed on behalf of, and furnished by the City, to the Holder requesting
the exchange.

the Holders at the Designated Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar, or sent by

expense or service charge to the Holder, except as otherwise herein provided, and except that
the Paying Agent/Registrar shall require payment by the Holder requesting such transfer or
exchange of any tax or other governmental charges required to be paid with respect to such
transfer or exchange.
Certificates cancelled by reason of an exchange or transfer under this Section are hereby
defined to be “Predecessor Certificates,” evidencing all or a portion, as the case may be, of the
same obligation to pay evidenced by the new Certificate or Certificates registered and delivered
in the exchange or transfertherefor. Additionally, the term “Predecessor Certificates” shall include
any Certificate registered and delivered pursuant to Section 23 hereof in lieu of a mutilated, lost,
destroyed, or stolen Certificate which shall be deemed to evidence the same obligation as the
mutilated, lost, destroyed, or stolen Certificate.
Neither the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be required to issue, transfer or
exchange any Certificate called for redemption, in whole or in part, within forty-five (45) days of
the date fixed for the redemption of such Certificate; provided, however, such limitation on
transferability shall not be applicable to an exchange by the Holder of the unredeemed balance
of a Certificate called for redemption in part.

provisions contained in Sections 3, 4 and 5 hereof relating to the payment, and transfer/exchange

Representations by and between the City and DTC (the “Depository Agreement”).
Pursuant to the Depository Agreement and the rules of DTC, the Certificates shall be
deposited with DTC who shall hold said Certificates for its participants (the “DTC Participants”).

Certificates on the Security Register for all purposes, including payment and notices, shall be
Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, notwithstanding the ownership of each actual purchaser or
owner of each Certificate (the “Beneficial Owners”) being recorded in the records of DTC and
DTC Participants.
In the event DTC determines to discontinue serving as securities depository for the
Certificates or otherwise ceases to provide book-entry clearance and settlement of securities
transactions in general or the City decides to discontinue the use of the system of book-entry-only
transfers through DTC, the City covenants and agrees with the Holders of the Certificates to cause
Certificates to be printed in definitive form and issued and delivered to DTC Participants and
Beneficial Owners, as the case may be. Thereafter, the Certificates in definitive form shall be
assigned, transferred and exchanged on the Security Register maintained by the Paying
Agent/Registrar and payment of such Certificates shall be made in accordance with the provisions
of Sections 3, 4 and 5 hereof.

83
296440482.2/1001330712 7

on the Certificate Date shall be deemed to be duly executed on behalf of the City, notwithstanding
that one or more of such individuals shall cease to hold such offices at the time of delivery of the
Certificates to the initial purchaser(s), and with respect to Certificates delivered in subsequent
exchanges and transfers, all as authorized and provided in Texas Government Code, Chapter
1201, as amended.
No Certificate shall be entitled to any right or benefit under this Ordinance, or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate either a certificate of
registration substantially as set forth in the form provided in Section 9C, executed manually or by
facsimile by the Comptroller of Public Accounts of the State of Texas or his duly authorized agent,
or a certificate of registration substantially as set forth in the form provided in Section 9D, manually
executed by an authorized officer, employee, or representative of the Paying Agent/Registrar,
and either such certificate duly signed upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the
only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly certified, registered, and delivered.
Section 8.Initial Certificate(s). The Certificates herein authorized shall be initially
issued either (i) as a single fully registered certificate in the total principal amount of this series
with principal installments to become due and payable as provided in Section 2 and numbered T-
1 or, alternatively, (ii) as multiple fully registered certificates, being one certificate for each year of

from the initial purchaser(s), or the designee thereof, shall cancel the Initial Certificate(s) delivered
hereunder and exchange therefor definitive Certificates of authorized denominations, Stated
Maturities, principal amounts and bearing applicable interest rates for transfer and delivery to the
Holders named at the addresses identified therefor; all pursuant to and in accordance with such
written instructions from the initial purchaser(s), or the designee thereof, and such other
information and documentation as the Paying Agent/Registrar may reasonably require.
Section 9.Forms.
A.Forms Generally. The Certificates, the Registration Certificate of the Comptroller
of Public Accounts of the State of Texas, the Certificate of Registration of the Paying
Agent/Registrar, and the form of Assignment to be printed on each of the Certificates, shall be

Council of the City (hereinafter referred to as the “Ordinance”).
The Certificates maturing on and after August 15, 2035, may be redeemed prior to their
Stated Maturity, at the option of the City, in whole or in part, in principal amounts of $5,000 or any
integral multiple thereof (and if within a Stated Maturity by lot by the Paying Agent/Registrar), on
August 15, 2034, or on any date thereafter, at the redemption price of par plus accrued interest
to the date of redemption.
At least thirty (30) days prior to a redemption date, the City shall cause a written notice of
such redemption to be sent by United States Mail, first-class, postage prepaid, to the registered
owners of each Certificate to be redeemed at the address shown on the Security Register and
subject to the terms and provisions relating thereto contained in the Ordinance. If a Certificate
(or any portion of its principal sum) shall have been duly called for redemption and notice of such
redemption duly given, then upon the redemption date such Certificate (or the portion of its
principal sum to be redeemed) shall become due and payable, and interest thereon shall cease
to accrue from and after the redemption date; provided,moneys for the payment of the redemption
price and the interest accrued on the principal amount to be redeemed to the date of redemption
are held for the purpose of such payment by the Paying Agent/Registrar.
With respect to any optional redemption of the Certificates, unless moneys sufficient to
pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Certificates to be redeemed shall
have been received by the Paying Agent/Registrar prior to the giving of such notice of redemption,
86
296440482.2/1001330712 10
such notice may state that said redemption may, at the option of the City, be conditional upon the
receipt of such moneys by the Paying Agent/Registrar on or prior to the date fixed for such
redemption, or upon the satisfaction of any prerequisites set forth in such notice of redemption;
and, if sufficient moneys are not received or such prerequisites are not satisfied, such notice shall
be of no force and effect, the City shall not redeem such Certificates and the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall give notice, in the manner in which the notice of redemption was given, to
the effect that the Certificates have not been redeemed.
In the event a portion of the principal amount of a Certificate is to be redeemed and the
registered owner is someone other than Cede & Co., payment of the redemption price of such
principal amount shall be made to the registered owner only upon presentation and surrender of
such Certificate to the Designated Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar, and a
new Certificate or Certificates of like maturity and interest rate in any authorized denominations
provided by the Ordinance for the then unredeemed balance of the principal sum thereof will be
issued to the registered owner, without charge. If a Certificate is selected for redemption, in whole
or in part, the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall not be required to transfer such Certificate
to an assignee of the registered owner within forty-five (45) days of the redemption date; provided,
however, such limitation on transferability shall not be applicable to an exchange by the registered
owner of the unredeemed balance of a Certificate redeemed in part.
The Certificates are payable from the proceeds of an ad valorem tax levied, within the
limitations prescribed by law, upon all taxable property in the City and are additionally payable
from and secured by a lien on and limited pledge of the Surplus Revenues (as described in the
Ordinance) of the City’s waterworks and sewer system (the “System”), such lien and pledge,
however, being junior and subordinate to the lien on and pledge of the Net Revenues (as defined
in the Ordinance) of the System securing the payment of the Prior Lien Obligations (as defined in
the Ordinance) currently outstanding or as may hereafter be issued by the City. In the Ordinance,
the City reserves and retains the right to issue Prior Lien Obligations without limitation as to
principal amount but subject to any applicable terms, conditions or restrictions under law or
otherwise as well as the right to issue additional obligations payable from the same sources as
the Certificates and equally and ratably secured by a parity lien on and pledge of the Surplus
Revenues of the System.
Reference is hereby made to the Ordinance, a copy of which is on file in the Designated
Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar, and to all of the provisions of which the
registered owner by the acceptance hereof hereby assents, for definitions of terms; the
description of and the nature and extent of the tax levied for the payment of the Certificates; the
properties constituting the System; the Net Revenues pledged to the payment of the principal of
and interest on the Certificates; the nature, extent, and manner of enforcement of the pledge; the
terms and conditions relating to the transfer or exchange of this Certificate; the conditions upon
which the Ordinance may be amended or supplemented with or without the consent of the
registered owners; the rights, duties, and obligations of the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar;
the terms and provisions upon which the tax levy and the liens, pledges, charges, and covenants
made therein may be discharged at or prior to the maturity of this Certificate, and this Certificate
deemed to be no longer Outstanding; and, for the other terms and provisions thereof. Capitalized
terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Ordinance.
This Certificate, subject to certain limitations contained in the Ordinance, may be
transferred on the Security Register only upon its presentation and surrender at Designated
Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar, with the Assignment hereon duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Paying
87
296440482.2/1001330712 11
Agent/Registrar duly executed by, the registered owner hereof, or his duly authorized agent.
When a transfer on the Security Register occurs, one or more new, fully registered Certificates of
the same Stated Maturity, of authorized denominations, bearing the same rate of interest, and of
the same aggregate principal amount will be issued by the Paying Agent/Registrar to the
designated transferee or transferees.
The City and the Paying Agent/Registrar, and any agent of either, may treat the registered
owner hereof whose name appears on the Security Register (i) on the Record Date as the owner
entitled to the payment of the interest hereon, (ii) on the date of surrender of this Certificate as
the owner entitled to the payment of the principal hereof at its Stated Maturity, or upon its prior
redemption, in whole or in part, and (iii) on any other date as the owner for all other purposes,
and neither the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar, or any agent of either, shall be affected by
notice to the contrary. In the event of a non-payment of interest on a scheduled payment date,
and for thirty (30) days thereafter, a new record date for such interest payment (a “Special Record
Date”) will be established by the Paying Agent/Registrar, if and when funds for the payment of
such interest have been received from the City. Notice of the Special Record Date and of the
scheduled payment date of the past due interest (which shall be fifteen (15) days after the Special
Record Date) shall be sent at least five (5) business days prior to the Special Record Date by
United States mail, first class postage prepaid, to the address of each registered owner appearing
on the Security Register at the close of business on the last business day next preceding the date

Section 11.Certificate Account. For the purpose of paying the interest on and to
provide a sinking fund for the payment and retirement of the Certificates, there shall be and is
hereby created a special fund or account to be designated “SPECIAL 2025 COMBINATION TAX
AND LIMITED SURPLUS REVENUE CERTIFICATE OF OBLIGATION ACCOUNT” (the
“Certificate Account”), which fund or account shall be maintained on the records of the City and
deposited in a special fund maintained at an official depository of the City’s funds, and moneys
deposited in said fund or account shall be used for no other purpose. The Mayor, Mayor Pro
Tem, City Manager, Assistant City Manager, Director of Finance, City Secretary and Deputy City
Secretary, any one or more of said officials of the City, are hereby authorized and directed to
make withdrawals from said fund or account sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the
Certificates as the same become due and payable, and, shall cause to be transferred to the
Paying Agent/Registrar from moneys on deposit in the Certificate Account (on or prior to a

Account may, at the option of the City, invested in investments authorized by the Public Funds

policy; provided that all such deposits and investments shall be made in such a manner that the
money required to be expended from said Certificate Account will be available at the proper time
or times. All interest and income derived from deposits and investments in the Certificate Account
shall be credited to, and any losses debited to, such account. All investments in the Certificate
Account shall be sold promptly when necessary to prevent any default in connection with the
Certificates.
Section 12.Tax Levy. To provide for the payment of the “Debt Service Requirements”
on the Certificates being (i) the interest on said Certificates and (ii) a sinking fund for their
redemption at maturity or a sinking fund of 2% (whichever amount shall be the greater), there
shall be and there is hereby levied, within the limitations prescribed by law, for the current year
and each succeeding year thereafter while said Certificates or any interest thereon shall remain
93
296440482.2/1001330712 17
Outstanding, a sufficient tax on each one hundred dollars’ valuation of taxable property in said
City, adequate to pay such Debt Service Requirements, full allowance being made for
delinquencies and costs of collection; said tax shall be assessed and collected each year and
applied to the payment of the Debt Service Requirements, and the same shall not be diverted to
any other purpose. The taxes so levied and collected shall be paid into the Certificate Account.
The City Council hereby declares its purpose and intent to provide and levy a tax legally and fully
sufficient to pay the said Debt Service Requirements, it having been determined that the existing
and available taxing authority of the City for such purpose is adequate to permit a legally sufficient
tax in consideration of all other outstanding indebtedness.
The amount of taxes to be provided annually for the payment of the principal of and interest
on the Certificates shall be determined and accomplished in the following manner:
Prior to the date the City Council establishes the annual tax rate and passes an ordinance
levying ad valorem taxes each year, the City Council shall determine:
(1)The amount on deposit in the Certificate Account after (a) deducting
therefrom the total amount of Debt Service Requirements to become due on Certificates
prior to the Collection Date for the ad valorem taxes to be levied and (b) adding thereto
the amount of the Net Revenues of the System appropriated and allocated to pay such
Debt Service Requirements prior to the Collection Date for the ad valorem taxes to be
levied.
(2)The amount of Surplus Revenues and any other lawfully available
revenues which are appropriated and to be set aside during such fiscal year for the
payment of the Debt Service Requirements on the Certificates between the Collection
Date for the taxes then to be levied and the Collection Date for the taxes to be levied
during the next succeeding fiscal year.
(3)The amount of Debt Service Requirements to become due and payable on
the Certificates between the Collection Date for the taxes then to be levied and the
Collection Date for the taxes to be levied during the next succeeding calendar year.
The amount of taxes to be levied annually each year to pay the Debt Service
Requirements on the Certificates shall be the amount established in paragraph (3) above less the
sum total of the amounts established in paragraphs (1) and (2), after taking into consideration
delinquencies and costs of collecting such annual taxes.
Section 13.Pledge of Revenues. The City hereby covenants and agrees that, subject
to the prior lien on and pledge of the Net Revenues to the payment and security of the Prior Lien
Obligations, the Surplus Revenues are hereby irrevocably pledged to the payment of the principal
of and interest on the Certificates, and the pledge of Surplus Revenues herein made for the
payment of the Certificates shall be limited to $1,000 and shall constitute a lien on the Surplus
Revenues until such time as the City shall pay all of such $1,000, after which time the pledge
shall cease, all in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof and be valid and binding and
fully perfected from and after the date of adoption of this Ordinance without physical delivery or
transfer or transfer of control of the Surplus Revenues, the filing of this Ordinance or any other
act; all as provided in Texas Government Code, Chapter 1208, as amended (“Chapter 1208”).
Chapter 1208 applies to the issuance of the Certificates and the pledge of the Surplus
Revenues of the System granted by the City under this Section 13, and such pledge is therefore
94
296440482.2/1001330712 18
valid, effective and perfected. If Texas law is amended at any time while the Certificates are
Outstanding such that the pledge of the Surplus Revenues of the System granted by the City
under this Section 13 is to be subject to the filing requirements of Texas Business and Commerce
Code, Chapter 9, as amended, then in order to preserve to the registered owners of the
Certificates the perfection of the security interest in said pledge, the City agrees to take such
measures as it determines are reasonable and necessary under Texas law to comply with the
applicable provisions of Texas Business and Commerce Code, Chapter 9, as amended, and
enable a filing to perfect the security interest in said pledge to occur.
Section 14.Revenue Fund. The City hereby covenants and agrees that all revenues
derived from the operation of the System shall be kept separate and apart from all other funds,
accounts, and moneys of the City, and shall be deposited as collected into the “City of The Colony,
Texas, Water and Sewer System Revenue Bonds Revenue Fund” (heretofore created and
established in the connection with the issuance of outstanding Prior Lien Obligations and
hereinafter called the “Revenue Fund”). All moneys deposited in the Revenue Fund shall be
pledged and appropriated to the extent required for the following purposes and in the order of
priority shown, to wit:
First: To the payment of the reasonable and proper maintenance and operation expenses
of the System as defined herein or required by statute or ordinances authorizing the Prior
Lien Obligations to be a first charge on and claim against the revenues of the System.
Second: To the payment of all amounts required to be deposited in the special funds
created and established for the payment, security and benefit of Prior Lien Obligations in
accordance with the terms and provisions of the ordinances authorizing the issuance of
Prior Lien Obligations.
Third: To the payment of the limited amounts required to be deposited in the special funds
and accounts created and established for the payment of the Certificates and Additional
Obligations.
Any Net Revenues remaining in the Revenue Fund after satisfying the foregoing
payments, or making adequate and sufficient provision for the payment thereof, may be
appropriated and used for any other City purpose now or hereafter permitted by law.
Section 15.Deposits to Certificate Account. The City agrees to cause to be
deposited in the Certificate Account prior to a principal and interest payment date for the
Certificates from the Surplus Revenues in the Revenue Fund, after the deduction of all payments
required to be made to the special Funds or accounts created for the payment and security of the
Prior Lien Obligations, or from ad valorem taxes or other lawfully available funds, as applicable,
any amounts budgeted to be paid from the Certificate Account in such Fiscal Year.
Accrued interest and premium, if any, received from the purchaser of the Certificates shall
be deposited to the Certificate Account. In addition, any surplus proceeds from the sale of the
Certificates not expended for authorized purposes shall be deposited in the Certificate Account,
and such amounts so deposited shall reduce the sums otherwise required to be deposited in said
Certificate Account.
Section 16.Security of Funds. All moneys on deposit in the Funds for which this
Ordinance makes provision (except any portion thereof as may be at any time properly invested)
shall be secured in the manner and to the fullest extent required by the laws of Texas for the
95
296440482.2/1001330712 19
security of public funds, and moneys on deposit in such Funds shall be used only for the purposes
permitted by this Ordinance.
Section 17.Remedies in Event of Default. In addition to all the rights and remedies
provided by the laws of the State of Texas, the City covenants and agrees particularly that in the
event the City (a) defaults in the payments to be made to the Certificate Account, or (b) defaults
in the observance or performance of any other of the covenants, conditions, or obligations set
forth in this Ordinance, any Holder shall be entitled to a writ of mandamus issued by a court of
proper jurisdiction compelling and requiring the governing body of the City and other officers of
the City to observe and perform any covenant, condition, or obligation prescribed in this
Ordinance.
No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default shall impair
any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or acquiescence
therein, and every such right and power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may
be deemed expedient. The specific remedies herein provided shall be cumulative of all other
existing remedies and the specification of such remedies shall not be deemed to be exclusive.
Section 18.Special Covenants. The City hereby covenants as follows:
(i)That it has the lawful power to pledge the Surplus Revenues supporting
this issue of Certificates and has lawfully exercised said powers under the Constitution
and laws of the State of Texas, including said power existing under Texas Local
Government Code, Subchapter C of Chapter 271, as amended, and Texas Government
Code, Chapter 1502, as amended.
(ii)That other than for the payment of the outstanding Prior Lien Obligations
and the Certificates, the Net Revenues are not pledged to the payment of any debt or
obligation of the City or of the System.
(iii)That other than for the payment of the outstanding Certificates, the Surplus
Revenues are not pledged to the payment of any debt or obligation of the City or of the
System.
(iv)That, as long as any Certificates or any interest thereon remain
Outstanding, and the pledge of the Surplus Revenues has not been fully satisfied, the City
will not sell, lease, or encumber the System or any substantial part thereof, provided that
this covenant shall not be construed to prohibit the sale of such machinery, or other
properties or equipment which has become obsolete or otherwise unsuited to the efficient
operation of the System.
(v)The City recognizes that the purchasers and owners of the Certificates will
have accepted them on, and paid a price which reflects, the understanding that interest
thereon is excludable from federal income taxation under laws in force at the time the
Certificates shall have been delivered. In this connection the City covenants to take no
action or fail to take any action, which action or failure to act may render the interest on
any of such Certificates subject to federal income taxation, particularly pursuant to Section
103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), nor shall the City
take any action or fail to take any action, which action or failure to act, would have the
effect of causing the income derived by the City from the System to become subject to
96
296440482.2/1001330712 20
federal income taxation in the hands of the City, whether or not provision shall have been
made for the payment of such Certificates.
Section 19.Issuance of Additional Obligations. The City hereby expressly reserves
the right to hereafter issue Prior Lien Obligations and Additional Obligations without limitation as
to principal amount but subject to any terms, conditions or restrictions applicable thereto under
law or otherwise.
Additional Prior Lien Obligations and Additional Obligations, if issued, may be payable, in
whole or in part, from Net Revenues (without impairment of the obligation of contract with the
holders of Certificates) upon such terms and conditions as the City Council may determine.
Additional Obligations, if issued and payable, in whole or in part, from Surplus Revenues (as
defined in the same or similar terms as the term Surplus Revenues is defined in this Ordinance),
shall not in any event be construed as payable from the Surplus Revenues required by this
Ordinance to be budgeted and appropriated for the payment of the Certificates and interest
thereon.
It is the intention of this governing body and accordingly hereby recognized and stipulated
that the provisions, agreements and covenants contained herein bearing upon the management
and operations of the System, and the administering and application of revenues derived from
the operation thereof, shall to the extent possible be harmonized with like provisions, agreements
and covenants contained in the ordinances authorizing the issuance of the Prior Lien Obligations,
and to the extent of any irreconcilable conflict between the provisions contained herein and in the
ordinances authorizing the issuance of the Prior Lien Obligations, the provisions, agreements and
covenants contained therein shall prevail to the extent of such conflict and be applicable to this
Ordinance but in all respects subject to the priority of rights and benefits, if any, conferred thereby
to the holders of the Prior Lien Obligations.
Section 20.Sale of the Certificates – Official Statement Approval. Pursuant to a
public sale for the Certificates, the bid submitted by _______________ (herein referred to as the
“Purchasers”) is declared to be the best bid received producing the lowest true interest cost rate
to the City, and the sale of the Certificates to the Purchasers at the price of par plus premium in
the amount of $________, is hereby determined to be in the best interests of the City and is
approved and confirmed. Delivery of the Certificates to the Purchasers shall occur as soon as
possible upon payment being made therefor in accordance with the terms of sale. The Initial
Certificate shall be registered in the name as provided in the winning bid.
Furthermore, the use of the Preliminary Official Statement by the Purchasers in connection
with the public offering and sale of the Certificates is hereby ratified, confirmed and approved in
all respects and such Preliminary Official Statement is hereby deemed "final" as of its date within
the meaning and for the purposes of paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 15c2-12 under the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The final Official Statement, which reflects the terms of sale
(together with such changes approved by the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, City Manager, Assistant
City Manager, Director of Finance, City Secretary or Deputy City Secretary, any one or more of
said officials), shall be and is hereby in all respects approved and the Purchasers are hereby
authorized to use and distribute said final Official Statement, dated March 5, 2025, in the
reoffering, sale and delivery of the Certificates to the public. The Mayor or Mayor Pro Tem and
City Secretary or Deputy City Secretary are further authorized to execute and deliver for and on
behalf of the City copies of said Official Statement in final form as may be required by the
Purchasers, and such final Official Statement in the form and content executed by said officials
97
296440482.2/1001330712 21
shall be deemed to be approved by the Council and constitute the Official Statement authorized
for distribution and use by the Purchasers.
Section 21.Notices to Owners - Waiver. Wherever this Ordinance provides for notice
to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly
provided) if in writing and sent by United States mail, first-class, postage prepaid, to the address
of each Holder appearing on the Security Register at the close of business on the business day
next preceding the mailing of such notice.
In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice
to any particular Holders, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, shall affect the sufficiency of
such notice with respect to all other Certificates. Where this Ordinance provides for notice in any
manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Holder entitled to receive such notice, either
before or after the event with respect to which such notice is given; and, such waiver shall be the
equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Paying
Agent/Registrar, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waiver.
Section 22.Cancellation. All Certificates surrendered for payment, redemption,
transfer, exchange, or replacement, if surrendered to the Paying Agent/Registrar, shall be
promptly canceled by it; and, if surrendered to the City, shall be delivered to the Paying
Agent/Registrar and, if not already canceled, shall be promptly canceled by the Paying
Agent/Registrar. The City may at any time deliver to the Paying Agent/Registrar for cancellation
any Certificates previously certified or registered and delivered which the City may have acquired
in any manner whatsoever, and all Certificates so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the
Paying Agent/Registrar. All canceled Certificates held by the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be
returned to the City.
Section 23.Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost, and Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated
Certificate is surrendered to the Paying Agent/Registrar, or the City and the Paying
Agent/Registrar receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss, or theft of any
Certificate, and (b) there is delivered to the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar such security or
indemnity as may be required to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to
the City or the Paying Agent/Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the City shall execute and, upon its request, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall register
and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Certificate,
a new Certificate of the same Stated Maturity and of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a
number not contemporaneously outstanding.
In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Certificate has become or is about
to become due and payable, the City in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Certificate,
pay such Certificate.
Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the City may require payment
by the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in relation
thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Paying Agent/Registrar)
connected therewith.
Every new Certificate issued pursuant to this Section in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed,
lost, or stolen Certificate shall constitute a replacement of the prior obligation of the City, whether
or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by
98
296440482.2/1001330712 22
anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Ordinance equally and ratably with all other
Outstanding Certificates.
The provisions of this Section are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all
other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement and payment of mutilated, destroyed,
lost, or stolen Certificates.
Section 24.Covenants to Maintain Tax-Exempt Status of Interest on the

(b)Not to Cause Interest to Become Taxable. The City shall not use, permit the
use of, or omit to use Gross Proceeds or any other amounts (or any property the acquisition,
construction or improvement of which is to be financed directly or indirectly with Gross Proceeds)
in a manner which if made or omitted, respectively, would cause the interest on any Certificate to
become includable in the gross income, as defined in Section 61 of the Code, of the owner thereof
for federal income tax purposes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until
the City receives a written opinion of counsel nationally recognized in the field of municipal bond
law to the effect that failure to comply with such covenant will not adversely affect the exemption
from federal income tax of the interest on any Certificate, the City shall comply with each of the
specific covenants in this Section.
(c)No Private Use or Private Payments. Except as permitted by Section 141 of the
Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall at all times prior to the last Stated
Maturity of Certificates:
(1)exclusively own, operate and possess all property the acquisition,
construction or improvement of which is to be financed or refinanced directly or
indirectly with Gross Proceeds of the Certificates, and not use or permit the use of
such Gross Proceeds (including all contractual arrangements with terms different
than those applicable to the general public) or any property acquired, constructed
or improved with such Gross Proceeds in any activity carried on by any person or
entity (including the United States or any agency, department and instrumentality
thereof) other than a state or local government, unless such use is solely as a
member of the general public; and
(2)not directly or indirectly impose or accept any charge or other
payment by any person or entity who is treated as using Gross Proceeds of the
Certificates or any property the acquisition, construction or improvement of which
is to be financed or refinanced directly or indirectly with such Gross Proceeds,
other than taxes of general application within the City or interest earned on
investments acquired with such Gross Proceeds pending application for their
intended purposes.
(d)No Private Loan. Except to the extent permitted by Section 141 of the Code and
the Regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not use Gross Proceeds of the Certificates
to make or finance loans to any person or entity other than a state or local government. For
purposes of the foregoing covenant, such Gross Proceeds are considered to be “loaned” to a
person or entity if: (1) property acquired, constructed or improved with such Gross Proceeds is
sold or leased to such person or entity in a transaction which creates a debt for federal income
tax purposes; (2) capacity in or service from such property is committed to such person or entity
under a take or pay, output or similar contract or arrangement; or (3) indirect benefits, or burdens
and benefits of ownership, of such Gross Proceeds or any property acquired, constructed or
improved with such Gross Proceeds are otherwise transferred in a transaction which is the
economic equivalent of a loan.
(e)Not to Invest at Higher Yield. Except to the extent permitted by Section 148 of
the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not at any time prior to the
final Stated Maturity of the Certificates directly or indirectly invest Gross Proceeds in any
Investment (or use Gross Proceeds to replace money so invested), if as a result of such
investment the Yield from the Closing Date of all Investments acquired with Gross Proceeds (or
100
296440482.2/1001330712 24
with money replaced thereby), whether then held or previously disposed of, exceeds the Yield of
the Certificates.
(f)Not Federally Guaranteed. Except to the extent permitted by Section 149(b) of
the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not take or omit to take any
action which would cause the Certificates to be federally guaranteed within the meaning of
Section 149(b) of the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder.
(g)Information Report. The City shall timely file the information required by Section
149(e) of the Code with the Secretary of the Treasury on Form 8038-G or such other form and in
such place as the Secretary may prescribe.
(h)Rebate of Arbitrage Profits. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Section
148(f) of the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder:
(1)The City shall account for all Gross Proceeds (including all receipts,
expenditures and investments thereof) on its books of account separately and
apart from all other funds (and receipts, expenditures and investments thereof) and
shall retain all records of accounting for at least six years after the day on which
the last outstanding Certificate is discharged. However, to the extent permitted by
law, the City may commingle Gross Proceeds of the Certificates with other money
of the City, provided that the City separately accounts for each receipt and
expenditure of Gross Proceeds and the obligations acquired therewith.
(2)Not less frequently than each Computation Date, the City shall
calculate the Rebate Amount in accordance with rules set forth in Section 148(f)
of the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder. The City shall maintain
such calculations with its official transcript of proceedings relating to the issuance
of the Certificates until six years after the final Computation Date.
(3)As additional consideration for the purchase of the Certificates by
the Purchasers and the loan of the money represented thereby and in order to
induce such purchase by measures designed to insure the excludability of the
interest thereon from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income
tax purposes, the City shall pay to the United States out of the Certificate Account
or its general fund, as permitted by applicable Texas statute, regulation or opinion
of the Attorney General of the State of Texas, the amount that when added to the
future value of previous rebate payments made for the Certificates equals (i) in the
case of a Final Computation Date as defined in Section 1.148-3(e)(2) of the
Regulations, one hundred percent (100%) of the Rebate Amount on such date;
and (ii) in the case of any other Computation Date, ninety percent (90%) of the
Rebate Amount on such date. In all cases, the rebate payments shall be made at
the times, in the installments, to the place and in the manner as is or may be
required by Section 148(f) of the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder,
and shall be accompanied by Form 8038-T or such other forms and information as
is or may be required by Section 148(f) of the Code and the Regulations and rulings
thereunder.
(4)The City shall exercise reasonable diligence to assure that no errors
are made in the calculations and payments required by paragraphs (2) and (3),
and if an error is made, to discover and promptly correct such error within a
101
296440482.2/1001330712 25
reasonable amount of time thereafter (and in all events within one hundred eighty
(180) days after discovery of the error), including payment to the United States of
any additional Rebate Amount owed to it, interest thereon, and any penalty
imposed under Section 1.148-3(h) of the Regulations.
(i)Not to Divert Arbitrage Profits. Except to the extent permitted by Section 148 of
the Code and the Regulations and rulings thereunder, the City shall not, at any time prior to the
earlier of the Stated Maturity or final payment of the Certificates, enter into any transaction that
reduces the amount required to be paid to the United States pursuant to subsection (h) of this
Section because such transaction results in a smaller profit or a larger loss than would have
resulted if the transaction had been at arm’s length and had the Yield of the Certificates not been
relevant to either party.
(j)Elections. The City hereby directs and authorizes the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem,
City Manager, Assistant City Manager and Director of Finance, either or any combination of them,
to make elections permitted or required pursuant to the provisions of the Code or the Regulations,
as they deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the Certificates, in the Certificate as to
Tax Exemption or similar or other appropriate certificate, form or document.
Section 25.Satisfaction of Obligations of City. If the City shall pay or cause to be
paid, or there shall otherwise be paid to the Holders, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest
on the Certificates, at the times and in the manner stipulated in this Ordinance, then the pledge
of taxes levied and the lien on and pledge of the Net Revenues under this Ordinance and all
covenants, agreements, and other obligations of the City to the Holders shall thereupon cease,
terminate, and be discharged and satisfied.
The Certificates, or any principal amount(s) thereof, shall be deemed to have been paid
within the meaning and with the effect expressed above in this Section when (a) money sufficient
to pay in full such Certificates or the principal amount(s) thereof at maturity or the redemption date
therefor, together with all interest due thereon, shall have been irrevocably deposited with and
held in trust by the Paying Agent/Registrar, or an authorized escrow agent, or (b) Government
Securities shall have been irrevocably deposited in trust with the Paying Agent/Registrar, or an
authorized escrow agent, which Government Securities have been certified by an independent
accounting or consulting firm to mature as to principal and interest in such amounts and at such
times as will insure the availability, without reinvestment, of sufficient money, together with any
moneys deposited therewith, if any, to pay when due the principal of and interest on such
Certificates, on and prior to the Stated Maturity thereof or (if notice of redemption has been duly
given or waived or if irrevocable arrangements therefor have been made) the redemption date
thereof. The City covenants that no deposit of moneys or Government Securities will be made
under this Section and no use made of any such deposit which would cause the Certificates to be
treated as “arbitrage bonds” within the meaning of Section 148 of the Code or regulations adopted
pursuant thereto.
Any moneys so deposited with the Paying Agent/Registrar, and all income from
Government Securities held in trust by the Paying Agent/Registrar, or an authorized escrow
agent, pursuant to this Section which is not required for the payment of the Certificates, or any
principal amount(s) thereof, or interest thereon with respect to which such moneys have been so
deposited shall be remitted to the City or deposited as directed by the City. Furthermore, upon
the City’s request, the Paying Agent/Registrar shall remit to the city along with a written receipt,
any moneys deposited and held in trust by the Paying Agent/Registrar for the payment of the
principal of and interest on the Certificates which remain unclaimed for a period of three (3) years
102
296440482.2/1001330712 26
after being so deposited and held on the Stated Maturity or applicable redemption date on the
Certificates. Notwithstanding the above and foregoing, any remittance of funds from the Paying
Agent/Registrar to the City shall be subject to any applicable unclaimed property laws of the State
of Texas.
Section 26.Proceeds of Sale. The proceeds of sale of the Certificates, excluding the
amounts to pay costs of issuance, shall be deposited in a construction fund maintained at the
City’s depository bank. Pending expenditure for authorized projects and purposes, such proceeds
of sale may be invested in authorized investments in accordance with the provisions of Texas
Government Code, Chapter 2256, as amended, including guaranteed investment contracts and
the City’s investment policies and guidelines, and any investment earnings realized may be
expended for such authorized projects and purposes or deposited in the Certificate Account as
shall be determined by the City Council. All surplus proceeds of sale of the Certificates, including
investment earnings, remaining after completion of all authorized projects or purposes shall be
deposited to the credit of the Certificate Account.
Section 27.Ordinance a Contract - Amendments. The provisions of this Ordinance
shall constitute a contract with the Holders; and, the City shall not amend or repeal any of the
provisions of this Ordinance so long as any Certificate remains Outstanding except as permitted
in this Section and Section 28 hereof. The City, may, without the consent of or notice to any
Holders, from time to time and at any time, amend this Ordinance in any manner not detrimental
to the interests of the Holders, including the curing of any ambiguity, inconsistency, or formal
defect or omission herein. In addition, with the written consent of the registered owner or owners
holding a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Certificates then Outstanding affected
thereby, the City may amend, add to, or rescind any of the provisions of this Ordinance; provided
that, without the consent of all Holders of Outstanding Certificates, no such amendment, addition
or rescission shall: (1) extend the time or times of payment of the principal of, premium, if any,
and interest on the Certificates, reduce the principal amount thereof, the redemption price
therefor, or the rate of interest thereon, or in any other way modify the terms of payment of the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Certificates; (2) give any preference to any
Certificate over any other Certificate; or, (3) reduce the aggregate principal amount of Certificates
required to be held by Holders for consent to any such amendment, addition or rescission.

The City shall be obligated to observe and perform the covenants specified in this Section

required by subsection (c) of this Section of any Certificate calls and defeasance that cause the
City to be no longer such an “obligated person.”
The provisions of this Section are for the sole benefit of the Holders and beneficial owners
of the Certificates, and nothing in this Section, express or implied, shall give any benefit or any
legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim hereunder to any other person. The City undertakes to
provide only the financial information, operating data, financial statements, and notices which it
has expressly agreed to provide pursuant to this Section and does not hereby undertake to
105
296440482.2/1001330712 29
provide any other information that may be relevant or material to a complete presentation of the
City’s financial results, condition, or prospects or hereby undertake to update any information
provided in accordance with this Section or otherwise, except as expressly provided herein. The
City does not make any representation or warranty concerning such information or its usefulness
to a decision to invest in or sell Certificates at any future date.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL THE CITY BE LIABLE TO THE HOLDER OR
BENEFICIAL OWNER OF ANY CERTIFICATE OR ANY OTHER PERSON, IN CONTRACT OR
TORT, FOR DAMAGES RESULTING IN WHOLE OR IN PART FROM ANY BREACH BY THE
CITY, WHETHER NEGLIGENT OR WITHOUT FAULT ON ITS PART, OF ANY COVENANT
SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION, BUT EVERY RIGHT AND REMEDY OF ANY SUCH PERSON,
IN CONTRACT OR TORT, FOR OR ON ACCOUNT OF ANY SUCH BREACH SHALL BE
LIMITED TO AN ACTION FOR MANDAMUS OR SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.
No default by the City in observing or performing its obligations under this Section shall
constitute a breach of or default under this Ordinance for purposes of any other provision of this
Ordinance.
Nothing in this Section is intended or shall act to disclaim, waive, or otherwise limit the
duties of the City under federal and state securities laws.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section may be
amended by the City from time to time to adapt to changed circumstances resulting from a change
in legal requirements, a change in law, or a change in the identity, nature, status, or type of
operations of the City, but only if (1) the provisions of this Section, as so amended, would have
permitted an underwriter to purchase or sell Certificates in the primary offering of the Certificates
in compliance with the Rule, taking into account any amendments or interpretations of the Rule
to the date of such amendment, as well as such changed circumstances, and (2) either (a) the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount (or any greater amount required by any other
provision of this Ordinance that authorizes such an amendment) of the Outstanding Certificates
consent to such amendment or (b) a person that is unaffiliated with the City (such as nationally
recognized bond counsel) determines that such amendment will not materially impair the interests
of the Holders and beneficial owners of the Certificates. The provisions of this Section may also
be amended from time to time or repealed by the City if the SEC amends or repeals the applicable
provisions of the Rule or a court of final jurisdiction determines that such provisions are invalid,
but only if and to the extent that reservation of the City’s right to do so would not prevent an
underwriter of the initial public offering of the Certificates from lawfully purchasing or selling
Certificates in such offering. If the City so amends the provisions of this Section, it shall include
with any amended financial information or operating data next provided pursuant to subsection
(b) of this Section an explanation, in narrative form, of the reasons for the amendment and of the
impact of any change in the type of financial information or operating data so provided.

requested by the Attorney General of the State of Texas or his representative to obtain the
approval of the Certificates by the Attorney General and if such officer or counsel determines that
such changes are consistent with the intent and purpose of this Ordinance, which determination
shall be final. In the event that any officer of the City whose signature shall appear on any
document shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of such document, such signature
nevertheless shall be valid and sufficient for all purposes the same as if such officer had remained
in office until such delivery.
Section 31.Bond Counsel’s Opinion. The Purchaser’s obligation to accept delivery
of the Certificates is subject to being furnished a final opinion of Norton Rose Fulbright US LLP,
Dallas, Texas, approving such Certificates as to their validity, said opinion to be dated and

City Council confirms the continuation of the engagement of Norton Rose Fulbright US LLP as
the City's bond counsel.

thereof and neither the City nor the attorneys approving said Certificates as to legality are to be
held responsible for CUSIP numbers incorrectly printed or typed on the definitive Certificates.

is intended or shall be construed to confer upon any person other than the City, the Paying
Agent/Registrar, and the Holders, any right, remedy, or claim, legal or equitable, under or by
reason of this Ordinance. This Ordinance in its entirety is intended to be and is for the sole and
exclusive benefit of the City, the Paying Agent/Registrar, and the Holders.
Section 34.Inconsistent Provisions. Except as provided in Section 19 hereof, all
ordinances, orders, or resolutions, or parts thereof, which are in conflict or inconsistent with any
provision of this Ordinance are hereby repealed to the extent of such conflict and the provisions
of this Ordinance shall be and remain controlling as to the matters contained herein.
