scope of work, objectives or performance measures; and
e) a change in the Contractor's share of the budget concerning non-DSHS funding other than

the Program Attachment of any change enumerated in this section. The notification may be by letter,
fax or email.
Section 13.17 Contractor's Request for Revision of Certain Contract Provisions. A Contractor's
Revision Request is an alternative method for amending certain specified provisions of this Contract
that is initiated by the Contractor, but must be approved by DSHS. The following changes to this
Contract may be made through a Contractor's Revision Request, rather than through the amendment
process described in the Amendment section of this Article:
General Provisions(Core Subrecipient 2009) 6/5/08 Page 28 of 38
a) cumulative budget line item transfers among direct cost categories, other than the equipment
category, that exceed 10% of Program Attachments of$100,000 or more, provided that the
total budget amount is unchanged;
b) line item transfer to other categories of funds for direct payment to trainees for training
allowances;
c) change in clinic hours or location;
d) change in equipment list substituting an item of equipment equivalent to an item of equipment
on the approved budget, (For example,purchase of XYZ brand computer instead of approved
ABC brand computer with essentially identical features as the XYZ computer);
e) changes in the equipment category of a previously approved equipment budget (other than
acquisition of additional equipment, which requires an amendment to this Contract);
f) changes specified in applicable OMB Circular cost principles as requiring prior approval,
regardless of dollar threshold (e.g., foreign travel expenses, overtime premiums, membership
fees); and
g) changes to community sites, independent school districts or schools, in substance abuse
Program Attachments.
In order to request a revision of any of the enumerated provisions, Contractor shall obtain a Contract
Revision Request form from the DSHS website and complete the form as directed by the Department.
Two copies of the completed form must be signed by Contractor's representative who is authorized to
sign contracts on behalf of Contractor, and both original, signed forms must be submitted to the
Division Contract Management Unit assigned to the Program Attachment. Any approved revision
will not be effective unless signed by the DSHS Director of Client Services Contracting Unit. A
separate Contractor Revision Request is required for each Program Attachment to be revised.
Circumstances of a requested contract revision may indicate the need for an amendment described in
the Amendment section of this Article rather than a contract revision under this section.
Section 13.18 Immunity Not Waived. THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT NO
PROVISION OF THIS CONTRACT IS IN ANY WAY INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A
WAIVER BY DEPARTMENT OR THE STATE OF TEXAS OF ANY IMMUNITIES FROM SUIT
OR FROM LIABILITY THAT DEPARTMENT OR THE STATE OF TEXAS MAY HAVE BY
OPERATION OF LAW.
Section 13.19 Hold Harmless and Indemnification. Contractor, as an independent contractor,
agrees to hold Department,the State of Texas, individual state employees and officers, and the
federal government harmless and to indemnify them from any and all liability, suits, claims, losses,

and damages arise from performance or nonperformance of Contractor, its employees,
subcontractors,joint venture participants or agents under this Contract.
Section 13.20 Waiver. Acceptance by either Party of partial performance or failure to complain of
any action, non-action or default under this Contract shall not constitute a waiver of either Party's
rights under this Contract.

development, modification or maintenance of a website or other electronic information resources for
General Provisions(Core Subrecipient 2009) 6/5/08 Page 29 of 38
�I
DSHS or for the public on behalf of DSHS, Contractor expressly acknowledges that state funds may
not be expended in connection with the purchase of electronic information resources unless those
resources meet certain statutory and regulatory requirements relating to accessibility by persons with
visual, hearing,motor/physical, and cognitive learning disabilities as defined by Section 508 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. Accordingly, Contractor represents and warrants to DSHS
that the electronic information resources provided by Contractor to DSHS for purchase are capable,
either by virtue of features included within the technology or because they are readily adaptable by
use with other technology, of-
a) providing equivalent access for effective use;
b) presenting information, including prompts used for interactive communications; and
c) being integrated into networks for obtaining, retrieving, and disseminating information.
For purposes of this section,the phrase"equivalent access"means a substantially similar ability to
communicate with or make use of the electronic information resource, either directly by features
incorporated within the technology or by other reasonable means jointly agreed to by DSHS and
Contractor, such as assistive devices or services that would constitute reasonable accommodations
under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act or similar state or federal laws. Examples of
methods by which equivalent access might be provided include, but are not limited to, keyboard
alternatives to mouse commands and other means of navigating graphical displays, information
retrieval provided in an enhanced auditory fashion, voice commands,touch screen capacity, and
customizable display appearance. Electronic information resources under this Contract must comply
with 1 Tex. Admin. Code Chapters 206 and 213, as applicable.

b) failure to comply with any provision of this Contract, including failure to comply with all
applicable statutes, rules or regulations;

programmatic and financial compliance. The remedies set forth below are available to the
Department against Contractor and any entity that subcontracts with Contractor for provision of
General Provisions(Core Subrecipient 2009) 6/5/08 Page 30 of 38
services or goods. HHSC OIG may investigate, audit and impose or recommend imposition of
sanctions to Department for any breach of this Contract and may monitor Contractor for financial
compliance. The Department may impose one or more remedies or sanctions for each item of
noncompliance and will determine sanctions on a case-by-case basis. Contractor is responsible for
complying with all of the terms of this Contract. The listing of or use of one or more of the remedies
or sanctions listed below does not relieve Contractor of any obligations under this Contract. A state
or federal statute, rule or regulation, or federal guideline will prevail over the provisions of this
Article unless the statute, rule, regulation, or guideline can be read together with the provision(s) of
this Article to give effect to both. If the Contractor breaches this Contract by failing to comply with
one or more of the terms of this Contract, including but not limited to compliance with applicable
statutes, rules or regulations,the Department may take one or more of the actions listed below:
a) terminate this Contract or a Program Attachment of this Contract as it relates to a specific
program type. In the case of termination, the Department will inform Contractor of the
termination no less than thirty-one (3 1) calendar days before the effective date of the
termination in a notice of termination. The notice of termination will state the effective date
of the termination,the reasons for the termination, and, if applicable, alert the Contractor of
the opportunity to request a hearing on the termination pursuant to Tex. Gov. Code Chapter
2105 regarding administration of Block Grants. The Contractor agrees that it shall not make
any claim for payment or reimbursement for services provided from the effective date of
termination;
b) suspend all or part of this Contract. Suspension is, depending on the context, either(1)the
temporary withdrawal of Contractor's authority to obligate funds pending corrective action by
Contractor or its subcontractor(s) or pending a decision to terminate or amend this Contract,
or(2) an action taken by a suspending official in accordance with Department rules to
immediately exclude a person from participating in contract transactions for a period of time,
pending completion of an investigation and such legal or debarment proceedings as may
ensue. Contractor may not bill DSHS for services performed during suspension, and
Contractor's costs resulting from obligations incurred by Contractor during a suspension are
not allowable unless expressly authorized by the notice of suspension;
c) deny additional or future contracts or renewals with Contractor;
d) reduce funding if the Contractor fails to provide services or goods consistent with
performance expectations described in this Contract;
e) disallow costs and credit for matching funds, if any, for all or part of the activities or action
not in compliance;
f) temporarily withhold cash payments. Temporarily withholding cash payments means the
temporary withholding of a working capital advance, if applicable, or reimbursements or
payments to Contractor for proper charges or obligations incurred,pending resolution of
issues of noncompliance with conditions of this Contract or indebtedness to the United States
or to the State of Texas;
g) permanently withhold cash payments. Permanent withholding of cash payment means that
Department retains funds billed by Contractor for (1)unallowable, undocumented, disputed,
inaccurate, improper, or erroneous billings; (2) material failure to comply with Contract
provisions; or(3) indebtedness to the United States or to the State of Texas;
General Provisions(Core Subrecipient 2009) 6/5/08 Page 31 of 38
h) declare this Contract void upon the Department's determination that this Contract was
obtained fraudulently or upon the Department's determination that this Contract was illegal or
invalid from this Contract's inception and demand repayment of any funds paid under this
Contract;
i) request that Contractor be removed from the Centralized Master Bidders List (CMBL) or any
other state bid list, and barred from participating in future contracting opportunities with the
State of Texas;
j) delay execution of a new contract or contract renewal with Contractor while other imposed or
proposed sanctions are pending resolution;
k) place Contractor on probation. Probation means that Contractor will be placed on accelerated
monitoring for a period not to exceed six (6)months at which time items of noncompliance
must be resolved or substantial improvement shown by Contractor. Accelerated monitoring
means more frequent or more extensive monitoring will be performed by Department than
would routinely be accomplished;
1) require Contractor to obtain technical or managerial assistance;
m) establish additional prior approvals for expenditure of funds by Contractor;
n) require additional or more detailed, financial and/or programmatic reports to be submitted by
Contractor;
o) demand repayment from Contractor when it is verified that the Contractor has been overpaid,
e.g., because of disallowed costs,payments not supported by proper documentation, improper
billing or accounting practices, or failure to comply with Contract terms;
p) reduce the funding amount for failure to achieve or maintain the proposed level of service,to
expend funds appropriately and at a rate that will make full use of the award, or to provide
services or to achieve local match, if required;
q) pursue a claim for damages as a result of breach of contract;

convicted of the misuse of state or federal funds, fraud or illegal acts that are in
contraindication to continued obligations under this Contract, as reasonably determined by
DSHS;
s) withhold any payments to Contractor to satisfy any recoupment, liquidated damages, or any
penalty permitted by statute and imposed by DSHS, and take repayment from funds available
under this Contract, active or expired, in amounts necessary to fulfill Contractor's repayment
obligations;
t) reduce the Contract term;
u) recoup improper payments when it is verified that the Contractor has been overpaid, e.g.,
because of disallowed costs,payments not supported by proper documentation, improper

w) impose other remedies or penalties permitted by statute.
Section 14.03 Notice of Remedies or Sanctions. Department will formally notify Contractor in
writing when a remedy or sanction is imposed (with the exception of accelerated monitoring, which
may be unannounced), stating the nature of the remedies and sanction(s), the reasons for imposing
them,the corrective actions, if any, that must be taken before the actions will be removed and the
time allowed for completing the corrective actions, and the method, if any, of requesting
General Provisions (Core Subrecipient 2009) 6/5/08 Page 32 of 38
reconsideration of the remedies and sanctions imposed. Other than in the case of repayment or
recoupment, Contractor is required to file, within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of notice, a
written response to Department acknowledging receipt of such notice. If requested by the
Department, the written response shall state how Contractor shall correct the noncompliance or
demonstrate in writing that the findings on which the remedies or sanction(s) are based are either
invalid or do not warrant the remedies or sanction(s). If Department determines that a remedy or
sanction is warranted, unless the remedy or sanction is subject to review under a federal or state
statute, regulation, rule, or guideline, Department's decision is final. Department shall provide written
notice to Contractor of Department's decision. If required by the Department, Contractor shall take
corrective action. If DSHS determines that repayment is warranted, DSHS will issue a demand letter
to Contractor for repayment. If full repayment is not received within the time limit stated in the
demand letter, and if recoupment is available, DSHS will recoup the amount due to DSHS from funds
otherwise due to Contractor.
Section 14.04 Emergency Action. In an emergency, Department may immediately terminate or
suspend all or part of this Contract, temporarily or permanently withhold cash payments, deny
contract renewal or future contract awards, or delay contract execution by delivering written notice to
Contractor, by any verifiable method, stating the reason for the emergency action. An"emergency"
is defined as the following:
a) Contractor is noncompliant and the noncompliance has a direct adverse impact on the public
or client health, welfare or safety. The direct adverse impact may be programmatic or
financial and may include failing to provide services,providing inadequate services,
providing unnecessary services, or utilizing resources so that the public or clients do not
receive the benefits contemplated by the scope of work or performance measures; or
b) Contractor is expending funds inappropriately.
Whether Contractor's conduct or noncompliance is an emergency will be determined by Department
on a case-by-case basis and will be based upon the nature of the noncompliance or conduct.
ARTICLE XV CLAIMS AGAINST THE DEPARTMENT
Section 15.01 Breach of Contract Claim. The process for a breach of contract claim against the
Department provided for in Tex. Gov. Code Chapter 2260 and implemented in Department Rules §§
1.431-1.447 shall be used by DSHS and Contractor to attempt to resolve any breach of contract claim
against DSHS.
Section 15.02 Notice. Contractor's claims for breach of this Contract that the Parties cannot resolve
in the ordinary course of business shall be submitted to the negotiation process provided in Tex. Gov
Code Chapter 2260, subchapter B. To initiate the process, Contractor shall submit written notice, as
required by subchapter B, to DSHS's Office of General Counsel. The notice shall specifically state
that the provisions of Chapter 2260, subchapter B, are being invoked. A copy of the notice shall also
be given to all other representatives of DSHS and Contractor. Subchapter B is a condition precedent
to the filing of a contested case proceeding under Tex. Gov. Code Chapter 2260, subchapter C.
General Provisions(Core Subrecipient 2009) 6/5/08 Page 33 of 38
Section 15.03 Sole Remedy. The contested case process provided in Tex. Gov. Code Chapter 2260,
subchapter C, is Contractor's sole and exclusive process for seeking a remedy for any and all alleged
breaches of contract by DSHS if the Parties are unable to resolve their disputes under this Article.
Section 15.04 Condition Precedent to Suit. Compliance with the contested case process provided
in Tex. Gov. Code Chapter 2260, subchapter C, is a condition precedent to seeking consent to sue
from the Legislature under Tex. Civ. Prac. &Rem. Code Chapter 107. Neither the execution of this
Contract by DSHS nor any other conduct of any representative of DSHS relating to this Contract
shall be considered a waiver of sovereign immunity to suit.
Section 15.05 Performance Not Suspended. Neither the occurrence of an event nor the pendency
of a claim constitutes grounds for the suspension of performance by Contractor, in whole or in part.
ARTICLE XVI TERMINATION
Section 16.01 Expiration of Contract or Program Attachment(s). Contractor's service
obligations set forth in each Program Attachment shall end upon the expiration date of that Program
Attachment unless extended or renewed by written amendment. Prior to completion of the term of all
Program Attachments, all or a part of this Contract may be terminated with or without cause as set
forth below.
Section 16.02 Effect of Termination. Termination is the permanent withdrawal of Contractor's
authority to obligate previously awarded funds before that authority would otherwise expire or the
voluntary relinquishment by Contractor of the authority to obligate previously awarded funds.
Contractor's costs resulting from obligations incurred by Contractor after termination of an award are
not allowable unless expressly authorized by the notice of termination. Upon termination of this
Contract or Program Attachment, as applicable, Contractor shall cooperate with DSHS to the fullest
extent possible to ensure the orderly and safe transfer of responsibilities under this Contract or
Program Attachment, as applicable, to DSHS or other entity designated by DSHS. Upon termination
of all or part of this Contract, Department and Contractor will be discharged from any further
obligation created under the applicable terms of this Contract or the Program Attachment, as
applicable, except for the equitable settlement of the respective accrued interests or obligations
incurred prior to termination and for Contractor's duty to cooperate with DSHS. Termination does
not, however, constitute a waiver of any remedies for breach of this Contract. In addition,
Contractor's obligations to retain records and maintain confidentiality of information shall survive
this Contract.
Section 16.03 Acts Not Constituting Termination. Termination does not include: (1)withdrawal
of funds awarded on the basis of the Contractor's underestimate of the unobligated balance in a prior
period; (2)withdrawal of the unobligated balance at the expiration of the term of a Program
Attachment; (3)refusal to extend a Program Attachment or award additional funds to make a
General Provisions(Core Subrecipient 2009) 6/5/08 Page 34 of 38

REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a request for a specific use permit to
allow a tattoo parlor in the CBD(Central Business District)
at 665 Orleans.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends denial of the request.
BACKGROUND
Calvary Enterprises, dba Divine Ink Gallery,has applied for the specific use permit.
On June 9,2008,Jason and Andrea Boever applied for a certificate of occupancy to allow the
operation of a tattoo shop and beauty salon and spa at the site of a former beauty school. The
certificate of occupancy was approved for the beauty salon only. The Boevers explained that part
of the beauty salon services would include the applying of permanent makeup such as eye
shadow and lip gloss. Those procedures were recognized as being part of the normal operation
of a beauty salon.
However,the Planning Manager told the Boevers that a tattoo shop that applied body art would
require a specific use permit. On July 22, 2008,the Boevers were notified by certified mail that
the City had conducted an investigation and found that a tattoo shop was illegally operating at
665 Orleans. Advertising for the business states that custom tattooing is one of the services
provided. Despite their agreement to not offer tatoos at the time of the application to the City
and warnings from the City's Zoning Inspector,the operators continued to sell tattoos and
advertise extensively for such a service. Application for the specific use permit for the tattoo
shop was submitted on August 1, 2008.
Divine Ink Gallery& Salon is a full service cosmetic salon offering cutting and coloring of hair,
barber shop services,massage therapy, spa and facial treatments,makeup application,permanent
makeup application and custom tattoos. The Boevers state that they are licensed by the Texas
Department of State Health Services for the application of both permanent makeup and custom
tattoos.
At a Joint Public Hearing held October 20, 2008, the Planning Commission recommended denial
4:1 of a specific use permit to allow a tattoo parlor in the CBD (Central Business District) at 665
Orleans.

RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends approval of the request subject to the following condition:
1. Future phases will require that a traffic impact study be submitted with an
application for a general land use plan and a specific use permit.
BACKGROUND
Leonard Kirtman,representing Global Ventures,Inc.,has applied for a general land use plan and
a specific use permit.
Mr. Kirtman states that approximately 34 acres with frontage on Major will consist of 250
apartment units. Mr. Kirtman initially requested 34 acres of retail and office uses,approximately
69 acres developed with 1,000 apartment units and 10-20 acres of open space available to the
community for recreation and amenities. The-Planning Commission recommended denial of this
concept based upon traffic concerns.
Mr. Kirtman has now submitted a letter stating that he would like to reduce Phase One to include
the construe-ion of 250 apartment units on the 34 acres previously designated for commercial.
This initial phase should take approximately two to three years to complete. Mr. Kirtman states
that he no plans at this time to build additional apartments or any commercial and understands
that City Council would have to approve any future development.
At a Joint Public Hearing held October 20,2008,the Planning Commission recommended denial

Dear Mayor and Beaumont City Council Members:
I am writing to you In support of Mr. Kerry Moncla's letter dated October.
24, 2008 regarding the 103-acre property at North Major Drive. I am in
agreement with the letter's major points which consist of the following:
I. I have no Intention of ever building a shopping center on this site nor
using this property for commercial purposes.
2. My plan is to construct appi,oximately 250 apartment units in an initial
period of two to three years in the area that was designated for a shopping
center. This should eliminate any concern about traffic congestion.
3. 1 have no plans at this time to build additional apartments. I also
understand that the Council would have to approve any projects that I plan
In the future.
4. 1 am requesting approval of this plan to attract development partners to
make this a Class A project with many amenities, beginning with the
construction of 250 apartment units.
S. i am requesting approval of the project In order to demonstrate that the
City of Beaumont is in favor of growth and development in this area.
8. Due to time restraints and the current economic difficulties, I am hoping
that the city will support my original site plan. This Is with the
understanding that 1 will not be building 1,000 apartment resldences any
time soon or In the near future, and that I understand that the City would
have to approve any further plans that I submit.
'thank you for your understanding and consideration. I look forward to your
review and approval of my project.
Sincerely,

street,the property owners to either side of the subject property have requested that this portion
of Chinn be abandoned.
At a Regular Meeting held October 20,2008,the Planning Commission recommended approval
5:0 to abandon a portion of Chinn Lane subject to the following conditions:
• Retain an exclusive 20'sanitary sewer easement.
• The easement will need to be prepared, signed and sealed by a State of Texas

MEETING DATE: November 4, 2008
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider authorizing the City Manager to execute
an Industrial District Contract with Sartomer Company.
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends approval of a resolution authorizing the City Manager to
execute an Industrial District Contract with Sartomer Company.
BACKGROUND
Industrial District Contracts enable the City to collect payments in lieu of taxes from industries
located outside the city limits.
Previously, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, whom we have an industrial agreement with,
sold part of its operations to Sartomer Company. The City is entering into an initial industrial
contract with Sartomer Company that will be effective January 1, 2009. The in-lieu of tax
payment will be based on a ratio of 80% of property taxes due to the City as if the industry were
located within the city limits in 2009 through 2011 and 75% of property taxes due to the City in
2012 through 2015. The 2009 payment by Sartomer will be calculated based on 80% of the
assessed value multiplied by the tax rate effective on October 1, 2008. Payments will be due to
the City by February I"of each year.
A copy of the agreement is attached for your review.
BUDGETARYIMPACT
Sartomer Company's FY 2009 payment is estimated to be $147,500 of the $15,782,000 of
industrial payments expected in FY 2009.
RESOLUTION NO.

2. By the term "Assessed Value" is meant the 100% valuation of the Company's
properties, as determined by the Jefferson County Appraisal District for the previous tax year.
3. The term "assumed City taxes due" shall be calculated by the following formula:

Each October thereafter, the Chief Financial Officer shall obtain the most recent

litigation with the Jefferson County Appraisal District, payment shall be computed on the most
recent certified values from the Jefferson County Appraisal District. The Company shall notify
the City following resolution of the appraised value question and an adjustment for the payment,
without interest, will be made within thirty (30) days following such resolution.
