Re: Mowing Iii-n-, against property described as Fast 1/2 of Lot 2,Block 23,North Addition,
City of l t; l;1 nont,Texas also known as 2425 Pine Street,Beaumont,Texas
Dear Gentlemen:
I am tryina io help Magnolia Cemetery acquire this piece of property on Pine Street. I
have been in co strict with the property owners and the heirs of Caroline Hardy. Ms. Caroline
hardy lived then., until the early 1980's when because of her age she had to move out. There are
two liens from Ali,: -arty 1980's that evidently were there before she died in 1985. The house
was torn down d1�. that time. Since then, although Mr. Harry Hicks, the grandson who lives in
Houston, has bee�_ !rowing the property, the City over this period of time has obtained several
liens in the 1980 irr,e frame. The last recorded deed to this property is in 1920.
We wol l<! ike to purchase the property from the heirs, and have had the property
evaluated at only S1 500.00. We attach a copy of that appraisal. Unfortunately with interest, the
liens are more Iis.
To atlo w t-.e heirs to recoup something, we would very much like to enter into ar,
agreement witl: l'-,c City where you would take some smaller amount than the amount which i5
owed, and have t .ese liens released and still leave some money so that we can go to the heirs anc
obtain the prof.,ci � at this time.

Hopefully {lie City will feel that getting some money now would be better than having to
foreclose on the i,rc}perty and go through the foreclosure procedure, and the possibility of not
even getting thi ,i:1',ount of money. If we could somehow reduce this amount to approximately
$300.00, 1 feel r.,< 1i ident that I could get the City paid this amowit for the release of the liens,
and this Would aok= v Magnolia Cemetery to go forward in clearing the title and obtaining this
property. 1'ha',kl: -ou for your consideration of this reduction, and the heirs of Ms. Hardy
appreciate it was 11.
With hest regards, I remain,
Very truly yours,

TO: City Council
FROM: Kyle Hayes, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Frank C. Coffin, Jr., Chief of Police G
MEETING DATE: September 21, 2010
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider authorizing the City Manager to approve a
memorandum of understanding with North Central Texas
Council of Governments to allow the Police Department to
share data with other law enforcement agencies through a
Law Enforcement Analysis Portal (LEAP).
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends approval.
BACKGROUND
The Law Enforcement Analysis Portal (LEAP)provides a cached repository of criminal records,
management system data, and other pertinent criminal justice data to be shared and analyzed
among contributing agencies. Since criminals are not restricted to jurisdictional boundaries,
shared systems provide a method of collaboration between agencies. LEAP will provide a single
system to pull from a multitude of local, state, and federal databases to submit queries, enhance
officer safety, and develop crime and link analysis. The portal project was established by the
North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) and encompasses numerous agencies
within Texas. A Memorandum of Understanding is necessary to allow NCTCOG to coordinate
with the City's Records Management System vendor to gather data and assess connectivity and
data communication issues. An additional agreement formalizing the data flow process will be
submitted before any transfer of information begins. Control of information remains with the
providing agency.
BUDGETARYIMPACT
There are no fees associated with the initial phase of the project. If the Police Department is able to
query the system, a yearly maintenance fee may be assessed. Southeast Texas police agencies are
discussing utilizing regional grant funds to defray or remove any direct cost to the cities.
RESOLUTION NO.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF BEAUMONT:
THAT the City Manager be and he is hereby authorized to execute a Memorandum of
Understanding, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit"A,"with North Central
Texas Council of Governments to allow the Police Department to share data with other law
enforcement agencies through a Law Enforcement Analysis Portal.
PASSED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Beaumont this the 21st day of
September, 2010.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
BETWEEN THE NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS AND
The City of Beaumont on behalf of the Beaumont Police Department
FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE LAW ENFORCEMENT ANALYSIS PORTAL (LEAP)
Purpose:
The purpose of this inter-agency information sharing project is multi fold:
1. Officer Safety — provide a mechanism for patrol officers to query multiple agency databases
cached in a secure LEAP database, to receive focused information prior to making contact, in
table form about a vehicle, plate, or location, when those elements have been involved in
weapons, assaultive, drug or gang activity.
2. Crime and Link Analysis — queries against the LEAP data cache will provide responses in
summary table format, report format, or geospatially on a road map. Relationships between
individuals, locations, and property are shown geospatially in a Link Chart assisting investigators
in connecting the dots.
3. Additional optional hosted software tools to complement the effectiveness and efficiency of
jurisdictions that request services, such as a hosted RMS which allows agencies access to
hosted services at affordable prices by subscription rather than capital expenditure.
4. Other services and functionality may be added at a later date as deemed necessary by the LEAP
Advisory Committee
This purpose of this Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) establishes permissions and guidelines for
the use of Records Management System (RMS), Jail Management System (JMS), and other Criminal
Justice data the parties agree to share with other law enforcement and public safety agencies to
include but not limited to:
• Local government jurisdictions in Texas and other secure information sharing systems in other
states that wish to participate and enter into this agreement,
• State agencies in Texas and other states that wish to participate and enter into this agreement,
• Federal agency units based in Texas and their specialized field units, and other agency units
outside Texas who wish to participate and enter into this agreement.
Authority:
Authority for NCTCOG to enter into this MOU:
• State enabling legislation Chapter 391 — Local Government Code- "to assist local governments
in planning for common needs, cooperating for mutual benefit, and coordinating for sound
regional development".
Authority for local and state agencies to enter into this MOU:
• Chapter 771 — Interagency Cooperation Act—"In an interagency exchange that is exempt from
the requirements of a written agreement or contract, the agencies involved shall document the
exchange through informal letters of agreement or memoranda."
• Chapter 791 —Government Code— Interlocal Contracts—allows units of local government to
contract with each other to perform governmental functions and services.
• Each agency entering into this MOU warrants that it has legal authority to enter into this MOU
for the specified purposes.
1 of I
EXHIBIT "A"
Understandings
a. This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is entered into by the North Central Texas Council of
Governments (NCTCOG) and the City of Beaumont on behalf of the Beaumont Police
Department (hereinafter referred to as "contributing agency"), for the purpose of participating in
the Law Enforcement Analysis Portal project (hereinafter referred to as LEAP).
b. This MOU relates to participation in the LEAP data cache. Data submitted by contributing
agencies is and remains the property of the contributing agencies. Access by authorized users will
be controlled and analyzed through a Gateway developed by a private security company licensed
in the state of Texas. The LEAP data center will be secured consistent with FBI-CJIS guidelines.
c. Security of authorized users will be analyzed by a private security company licensed in the state of
Texas. Their analysis will report any unusual activity to the law enforcement agency holding the
subscription for that user. Follow up on this report will be the responsibility of that agency,
consistent with the agency's internal policies, FBI-CJIS guidelines, Code Of Federal Regulations,
Title 28--Judicial Administration, chapter I--Department of Justice, Part 20--Criminal Justice
Information Systems, and Texas Government Code § 411.083. Dissemination Of Criminal History
Record Information
d. The LEAP project was approved by the Executive Board of NCTCOG on December 15, 2005.
Subsequently, the LEAP Advisory Committee composed of eleven law enforcement executives
from the NCTCOG region was approved by the Executive Board of NCTCOG on April 27, 2006.
The purpose of the Advisory Committee is to review, modify and recommend for approval the
Manual of Administrative and Operational Guidelines (MAOG), other documents as appropriate,
and to network with the Texas Department of Public Safety Records Section for sharing of criminal
Records Management System data, and any other data deemed appropriate by the parties.
e. NCTCOG created LEAP as a cached repository of criminal records management system data, and
other pertinent criminal justice data to be shared and analyzed among other contributing public
safety agencies. NCTCOG will provide the contributing agency with technical assistance for the
extraction and submission of relevant data from their automated systems to the secure LEAP Data
Center if required by the contributing agency.
f. The contributing agency retains sole ownership of and sole responsibility for the information it
contributes, including but not limited to, the accuracy of the information. Receiving agencies will
take no enforcement action without first verifying the current status of that information with the
contributing agency.
g. The contributing agency will submit their law enforcement Records Management System (RMS)
data, and other criminal justice data to LEAP as agreed by the NCTCOG LEAP Advisory
Committee and the contributing agency. The contributing agency will follow the LEAP "MAOG" for
the submission, query, crime and link analysis and all other uses of contributing agencies shared
information.
h. LEAP is a law enforcement officer safety, crime and link analysis, tool and is not an intelligence
analysis tool. If an Intelligence Agency accesses LEAP for analysis, that agency shall ensure that
data remains law enforcement sensitive and will not insert classified data into the LEAP Data
Cache.
i. Each party to this agreement agrees that it shall have no liability whatsoever for the actions and/or
omissions of the other party's employees, officers, or agents, regardless of where the individual's
actions and/or omissions occurred. Each party is solely responsible for the actions and/or
omissions of its employees, officers, and agents; however, such responsibility is only to the extent
2 of 3
required by Texas law. Where injury or property damage result from the joint or concurring acts
and/or omissions of the parties, any liability shall be shared by each party in accordance with the
applicable Texas law, subject to all defenses, including governmental immunity. These provisions
are solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and not for the benefit of any person or entity not a
party hereto; nor shall any provision hereof be deemed a waiver of any defenses available by law.
j. NCTCOG shall have the authority to inspect and audit the records and operation of the contributing
agency to determine compliance with this agreement, LEAP policy, procedures, and all applicable
state and federal laws.
k. NCTCOG reserves the right to immediately suspend service to the contributing agency when
NCTCOG determines that this agreement or any applicable state or federal law, rule, or regulation
has been violated by the contributing agency or an employee of the contributing agency.
NCTCOG may reinstate the service upon receipt of satisfactory assurances that such violations
have been corrected and measures have been taken to prevent future violations by the
contributing agency.
I. Either NCTCOG or the contributing agency may upon 30 days written notice discontinue service or
participation in LEAP. NCTCOG shall not be required to give notice prior to suspending services
as stated above in Paragraph (k.).
m.The point of contact for LEAP and this MOU is the Manager of Criminal Justice Programs, North
Central Texas Council of Governments, currently Robert P. Neff, who can be reached at 817-695-
9174, or email at Rneff .nctcog.org.
n. The point of contact for LEAP and this MOU for the contributing agency will be reported to the
NCTCOG point of contact after execution of this agreement prior to assignment of authorized user
names and pass words for the LEAP Gateway by a private security company licensed in the state
of Texas.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this MOU by the signatures of the duly authorized
representative of each on the dates indicated. A photocopy or facsimile signature is as valid as the
original. This agreement is effective upon the last signature date.

increase reflected in the FY 2011 Budget which will raise more total property taxes than last
year's budget by$1,560,000 or 3.83%and of that amount$668,976 is tax revenue to be raised
from new property added to the tax roll this year.
BACKGROUND
Section 102 of the Local Government Code includes the following: "Adoption of a budget that
will require raising more revenue from property taxes than in the previous year requires a
separate vote of the governing body to ratify the property tax increase reflected in the budget. A
vote under this subsection is in addition to and separate from the vote to adopt the budget or a
vote to set the tax rate required by Chapter 26, Tax Code, or other law."
BUDGETARY IMPACT
The FY 2011 Budget includes $1,560,000 more in property tax revenues than was included in the
FY 2010 Budget.
ORDINANCE NO.

last year's budget by $1,560,000 or 3.83%; and,

MEETING DATE: September 21, 2010
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider accepting the tax roll and establishing the
property tax rate for the tax year 2010 (FY 2011).
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends that Council accept the Jefferson County Appraisal District's
Certified Tax Roll and adopt a property tax rate of$0.64 for the tax year 2010 (FY 2011). The
tax rate would be apportioned $0.439385/$100 assessed valuation to the General Fund and
$0.200615/$100 assessed valuation to the Debt Service Fund.
Section 26.05(b) of the Property Tax Code, mandates the language in the motion to adopt the tax
rate if the tax rate exceeds the effective tax rate, which is the tax rate that would produce the
same amount of taxes if applied to the same properties taxed in both the preceding and current
years. Administration recommends the motion to adopt the tax rate be made as follows, in order
to recognize that no change is proposed to the tax rate while still including the statement
mandated by law. The mandated language is shown in bold.
"I move that the property tax rate be increased by the adoption of a tax rate of 0.640000,
which is effectively a 2.68 percent increase in the tax rate. This tax rate reflects no change
from the 2009 tax rate but is 2.68 percent above the 2010 effective tax rate."
BACKGROUND
Chapter 26 of the Property Tax Code requires taxing units to comply with truth-in-taxation laws
in adopting their tax rates. State law requires all taxing units to adopt their tax rates before the
later of September 30 or the 601''day after the taxing unit receives the appraisal roll. State law
also requires the adoption of the Budget before the tax rate.
This same chapter of the Property Tax Code dictates language that is required to be included in
the ordinance that"sets a tax rate that, if applied to the total taxable value, will impose an
amount of taxes to fund maintenance and operation expenditures of the taxing unit that exceeds
the amount of taxes imposed for that purpose in the preceding year." The statement that must be
included in the City's ordinance setting the tax rate is as follows in bold:
This tax rate will raise more taxes for maintenance and operations than last year's tax rate.
Adopt 2010 Tax Rate
September 21,2010

In accordance with truth-in-taxation laws,two public hearings were held on August 31, 2010 and
on September 7, 2010. In addition, all required notices were published in the newspaper, on the
City's website, and on the municipal channel.
BUDGETARYIMPACT
Applying the proposed tax rate of$.6400 and a 97%collection rate,budgeted revenues of
$29,017,000 and$13,249,000 respectively to the General and Debt Service Funds are anticipated
