8. Consider establishing and taking a record vote on the proposed 2021 tax rate and schedule
a public hearing.
Minutes—August 10,2021
Chapter 26 of the Property Tax Code requires taxing units to comply with truth-in-taxation
laws in adopting their tax rate and requires the governing bodyto hold a public hearing when
the proposed tax rate exceeds the lower of the no-new revenue or voter-approval tax rate.
Administration recommends Council establish a tax rate required to support the City
Manager's proposed budget equal to the tax rate of $0.705000/$100 of valuation. In
accordance with Chapter 26 of the Property Tax Code, if the proposed rate exceeds the no-
new revenue rate of$0.647582/$100 or the voter-approval tax rate of$0.706322/$100, the
City Council must take a record vote to place the proposal to adopt the rate on the agenda of
a future meeting. The no-new revenue tax rate is the rate that would produce the same
amount of taxes in FY 2022 as was produced in FY 2021 if it was applied to the same
properties taxed in both years. The proposed tax rate of$0.705000/$100 exceeds the no-
new revenue tax rate of $0.647582/$100 by $0.057418/$100 or 8.87%. If the motion
passes, a public hearing must be scheduled. It is recommended that the public hearing be
held on September 14, 2021, at 1:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers.

Stated that the read about the tax abatement and it's very confusing, asked if these types of
tax abatements are good for small and big companies alike and how much the big

Public Hearing Close: 3:30 p.m.
10. Consider authorizing the City Manager to enter into a Tax Abatement Agreement with Arbor
Renewable Gas, LLC.
The City was recently approached by Arbor Renewable Gas, LLC requesting tax abatements
in order to move forward with investments, of up to $1.15 billion for the creation of a plant
situated between Highway 347 and Highway 69 South,to the southwest of the OCI Methanol
Plant property. In July 2021, the City created the Arbor Reinvestment Zone, allowing for tax
abatements in accordance with Chapter 312 of the Texas Tax Code.
An application was received from Arbor Renewable Gas, LLC., outlining their proposal. The
initial investment is estimated to be $325 million, creating 20 permanent jobs and
approximately 300 construction jobs. With key infrastructure and product demand along the
Gulf Coast, the company could build an additional three units at the same site, for
approximately$275 million each, with an additional 300 construction jobs and 12 permanent
employees at each of the three units. In regard to the successive investments, this project
could be a total estimated investment of$1.15 billion.
The proposed abatement agreement would result in an abatement of City taxes on the new
development in the amount of 90%for 10 years towards Unit 1. In addition, Units 2 through
4 would result in an abatement of City taxes on new improvements in the amount of 100%
for 10 years. The proposed abatement meets the criteria and conditions set forth in the City's
Reinvestment Zone Tax Abatement Policy, adopted in September 2020. All area taxing
entities have been notified of the proposed agreement.
Council to conduct the Public Hearing and approve the resolution.

PREPARED BY: Bart Bartkowiak, Director of Public Works &Technology Services
MEETING DATE: August 17, 2021
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter
into an Agreement with the Southeast Texas Flood Control District
(SETxFCD)to receive 33 flood sensors and to have the data hosted
by Jefferson County Drainage District No. 6 (DD6).
BACKGROUND
The Department of Homeland Security(DHS) is collaborating with Intellisense Systems,
Incorporated (Intellisense) for the testing and evaluation of flood sensors developed by Intellisense
under a DHS contract. The DHS will use the data resulting from this testing and evaluation
activity to assess the functionality of the flood sensors for commercial viability, durability, and
research.
On June 14, 2021, the SETxFCD signed the Cooperative Research and Development Agreement
(CRADA), along with Intellisense and DHS, stating that the DHS will be providing 125 flood
sensors to the SETxFCD for a 120-month testing and evaluation activity. The 120-month period
will consist of a 36-month technical evaluation and an 84-month durability evaluation. Upon the
completion of the 120-month testing and evaluation,the DHS will collaborate with the SETxFCD
on the future of the flood sensors.
The City, through this resolution, is indicating its willingness to enter into an Agreement with the
SETxFCD to take on the allotted 33 flood sensors to be placed at outfall structures, underpasses,
and ditches throughout the City, and will commit to the project's development, implementation,
construction maintenance, and management. The data from the sensors will be hosted on DD6's
website for public access. The flood sensors will be provided to the City at no cost. The only cost
associated with this project would be the purchase of materials needed for installation, an estimated
amount of$3,000.00.

APPENDIX A
STATEMENT OF WORK
I. Background
The Department of Homeland Security(DHS)Science and Technology Directorate(S&T)
funded Small Business Innovation Research(SBIR)contracts to design,develop,deploy,test,
evaluate and deliver operational Internet of Things (IoT),low-cost flood inundation sensors.
DHS S&T intends to foster the use and adoption of these flood sensor products by working with
the sensor developer and municipal,State,Federal,and international communities to test and
evaluate the sensors in operational field deployments.
Flooding is the nation's leading natural disaster,accounting for the greatest loss of life,property
damage and economic impact. Current flood damage for the 30-year period(1985-2015)is
estimated at$8.2 billion in damages and more than 105 fatalities per year. In support of the
Federal Emergency Management Agency,DES S&T is evaluating low-cost flood sensors to
determine their utility in preparing communities to become more resilient from flood disasters.
Mitigation measures like flood sensors will prepare communities to respond by providing alerts,
warnings and notifications of flooding. Deployable flood sensors can monitor flood-prone areas
in real time for rapid detection to alert officials,industry and citizens to potential flood hazards.
II. Purpose
The purpose of this Agreement is to facilitate collaborative testing and evaluation(T&E)of the
flood sensors developed by Intellisense Systems,Incorporated(hereafter Intellisense)under a
DHS SBIR contract.The DHS S&T Sponsor will use the data resulting from this T&E activity to
assess the functionality of the flood sensors for commercial viability and broad adoption. .Local
Collaborator will receive flood sensors to promote community resilience while performing
operational T&E in their local field environments over a 36-month evaluation period. In turn,
Intellisense will be able to determine any needed enhancements to the flood sensors based on
feedback provided by Local Collaborator during the 36-month T&E period.
III. Expected Results
By testing the flood sensor equipment in an operational field environment,Local Collaborator
will be able to evaluate the performance of the equipment as it meets their needs for flood alerts,
warnings and notifications within their jurisdictions,while also identifying any potential
deficiencies and/or vulnerabilities in the sensors. The results of this evaluation will enable DHS
S&T to gain further knowledge of the performance of the flood sensors and allow Intellisense to
develop enhancements to mitigate deficiencies in sensor performance.This collaboration will
result in improved sensor capabilities that increase community resilience to flood hazards,
potentially leading to commercial availability and adoption of the sensors by Local Collaborator
and other users.

APPENDIX G
Sensor Disposal Guidelines:
In the event the flood sensors stop working,first contact Intell sense to determine if the
technology can be repaired for continued use. If it is determined irreparable,please follow these
steps to dispose of the equipment in a thoughtful and environmentally sensitive manner.
Early Warning Flood Sensors come equipped with a variety of parts and technologies that must
be managed in different ways. These parts include:
• Various plastics and metals
Standard E-material
• PV (solar)panel(s)
Lithium Ion Battery
Do not dispose of PV panels or the lithium-ion batteries in a landfill;both contain reactive and
environmentally damaging heavy metals.To recycle the flood sensor's lithium battery,simply
locate your community's nearest drop-off location for"used rechargeable batteries."It is likely
that this facility will also accept the electronic waste(c-waste)generated from the flood sensor.
If not,locate a nearby location that does accept a-waste and drop off at that location. These
facilities can be identified through a simple Internet search—common a-waste and used battery
receptors include hardware stores,battery retailers,and municipal/county recycling facilities.
To recycle the PV panel, first contact the local waste/recycling authority,waste services of
nearby localities,or an independent PV recycling organization to inquire about options. Should
now of these be viable,contact Intellisense for direction.
Plastics and metals that make up the casing and structure of the flood sensor can likely be
recycled in your city's general recycling services.If uncertain,be sure to call and ask about a
specific material.Dispose of nomecyclable parts according to general landfill waste guidelines.
For more information on disposal options,contact Intellisense.
