By Resolution No. 07-R-37, dated October 30, 2007, the City designated eight (8) individuals to serve as members of the Zone Board, but based on the proposed contribution by Bexar County to the Zone, the total number of Zone Board appointments authorized for the City pursuant to the Project and Financing Plan is six (6). Two of the directors appointed by the City, C. A. Elder and Steve White, have agreed not to serve as City appointees, but Steve White is expected to be appointed by Bexar County as one of the two County representatives on the Zone Board. We are confirming that the City can remove and reappoint its Board appointees at any time; if so, the City will always have six (6) “friendly” representatives on the Board, a majority of the total Board of eleven (11) City Council approved this item on first reading at their meeting of October 28, 2008. FISCAL IMPACT The City foregoes ad valorem taxation on the improvements made to the Sedona development area until 2027, but the City receives all infrastructure (water, sewer, fire/EMS station, and CCM Agenda Item 7.doc City Council Memorandum Page 2 parks), built to its standards, and is expected to contract with the Zone to provide certain services (utilities and public safety).

In Ordinance No. 06-T-61 dated December 19, 2006, the City Council of the CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS (the “City”) designated TAX INCREMENT REINVESTMENT ZONE NUMBER TWO, CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS (the “Zone”) to enable the development of approximately 825 acres of land which may contain up to 2,200 residential units pursuant to the PUD (described below) with estimated average sales prices of $140,000-$240,000 per single family home and approximately 130 acres of open space including, but not limited to, public parks and trails to be known as the Sedona development (together, the “Project”). The Project will result in a primarily residential development located in the southern portion of the City. The Zone was established pursuant to the provisions of the Tax Increment Financing (“TIF”) Act, Chapter 311, Texas Tax Code, as amended (the “Act”). Section 11. The developer of the Project is SCHERTZ 1518 LTD. (the “Developer”). The Developer is requesting that the City, BEXAR COUNTY, TEXAS (“County”), and the SAN ANTONIO RIVER AUTHORITY (“SARA”), participate in the tax increment financing to help fund public infrastructure improvements to be located within the development. The duration of the Zone is projected to be twenty-one (21) years with the Zone being in existence through calendar year 2027. Section 12. The cost of the public infrastructure improvements and related capital costs for the Project (exclusive of financing costs or interest) is estimated at $41,195,225. The total project costs including administrative costs are estimated at $41,801,420. The proposed public infrastructure improvements for this project include the installation of, and improvements to, streets and drainage, utilities, and sidewalks; the development of public parks; the construction of a fire station and EMS facility, sewage plant, lift station, and public cemetery; the designation of a school site; and the construction of other public improvements. The Developer will pay such such costs and will be reimbursed by the Zone’s TIF fund only to the extent that tax increment revenue from increased property values is generated, up to a maximum reimbursement of $45,000,000. Section 13. The Project is a master planned community and has been approved by the City as a mixed-use Planned Unit Development (“PUD”). It will function as a key component within the Schertz Southside Development Initiative and create the demographic basis which will in turn create demand for commercial and industrial developments to occur along the City’s portion of the south IH-10 corridor. 60132537.2 1 Sedona Project and Financing Plan ARTICLE IIIPROJECT PLAN. Section 14. Overview Tax increment generated within the Zone will provide the financing needed to undertake public improvements in an area of the City which would not otherwise be developed into a planned residential community. Attached as Exhibit C is a Land Use Plan showing the location of the proposed improvements to and proposed uses of the property within the Zone. The Sedona development will help to increase area population, provide additional housing, and encourage economic development. This Project Plan in this Part II and the Reinvestment Zone Financing Plan in Part III (collectively, the “Project and Financing Plan”) provide for the funding of streets, sidewalks, water, sewer, wastewater treatment, drainage improvements, other public facilities, utility improvements, landscaping, and public parks that will be dedicated to the City, as well as associated engineering fees, legal fees, financial advisory fees, and administrative costs. (a) Single-Family Residential Development Approximately fifty percent (50%) of the 825-acre Project tract is designated for the construction of up to 2,200 residential units with initial sales prices ranging from $140,000-$200,000 per single family home and an average lot size of approximately 7,440 square feet. It is expected that the homes will be constructed in accordance with the Development Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit E. By 2015, sales prices for single family homes are anticipated to range from $160,000-$240,000. (b) Parks and Open Space Approximately fifteen percent (15%) of the total 825-acre tract will be open space, some of which will be dedicated by the Developer to the City for public parks. The flood plain areas of Woman Hollering Creek will consist of a linear park, greenbelt, and open space. The Project will include the development of over 13 acres of the original landowner’s early 1900’s farm and ranch into a park and cultural area, and several other pocket parks throughout the community. The location of the public parks is is shown on the Land Use Plan. In addition, the Developer shall cause Two Hundred and Twenty Five and No/100 Dollars ($225) per developed lot to be contributed to the City at the time of final plat approval solely for the design and development of parkland. In lieu of making this contribution, the Developer may, at its option, and upon written notice to the City, directly cause parkland improvements approved by the City and the Zone Board to be made, the costs of which shall be at least equal to Two Hundred and Twenty Five and No/100 Dollars ($225) per developed lot, to be constructed on the designated parkland at no cost to the City or the Zone Board. The City and the Zone Board must approve such parkland improvements and the costs therefore, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. (c) Public Improvements, Fire Station/EMS Facility, Cemetery, School Site, Residential Outdoor Recreation The highest priority public improvements to be undertaken in the Zone are (i) the new wastewater treatment plant (the “Water Treatment Plant”) to be constructed in phases up to its total capacity and (ii) the drainage improvements around FM 1518 (the “Roadway Improvements”). Design elements for certain public improvements will also be mandated by the City, including but not limited to the interior and exterior design of the fire station/EMS facility. Sidewalks are to be constructed implementing the City’s signature brick inlay design. Approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of the total acreage will be used for public facilities/outdoor recreation, as shown on the Land Use Plan at Exhibit C. The Developer 60132537.2 2 Sedona Project and Financing Plan will also designate a site to be purchased by the Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City School District for construction of a school. (d) Commercial Approximately six percent (6%) of the 825-acre tract is designated for the construction of retail and retail service facilities. (e) Connecting Road The City reserves the right, pursuant to the Act, to amend the boundaries of the Zone and to add projects to the Zone through the purchase or condemnation of land to be added to the Zone for a connecting road from the proposed arterial road south of Woman Hollering Creek to the existing Ware Seguin Road. Section 15. Boundaries The Zone is located in the southern portion of the City, adjacent to FM 1518. The Zone is roughly bounded by Lower Seguin Road to the north, FM 1518 to the east, Ware Seguin Road to the south, and the Air Installation Compatible Use Zone (AICUZ) relating to Randolph Air Force Base to the west. The Zone is located entirely within the Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City Independent School District. The location and boundaries of the Zone are shown on the Land Use Plan at Exhibit C. A legal description of the Zone is attached hereto as Exhibit A. Section 16. Land Use and Existing Conditions (a) Area Land Use The Zone currently contains only vacant agricultural land with associated structures. Attached as Exhibit B is a description of existing conditions and an aerial photograph showing the predevelopment use of the property. (b) Current Site Conditions The land within the Zone has remained undeveloped due to drainage problems and the lack of sufficient utilities. As a result, the property has not been utilized for residential or commercial development. Section 17. Project Plan Objective The objective of this Project Plan is to develop an 825-acre tract into approximately 425 acres containing up to 2,200 residential units and approximately 400 acres of other uses including, but not limited to, public parks and commercial, industrial, recreational, utility and other public facilities, and landscape open spaces. The Zone funds will provide for a reduction in costs necessary to price lots in a range that reflects what the Developer believes residential builders are willing to pay. Section 18. Relocation The Project Plan does not call for the relocation or displacement of any residents. 60132537.2 3 Sedona Project and Financing Plan Section 19. Municipal Ordinances (a) Compliance In addition to compliance with laws and procedures directly associated with the development of the Zone pursuant to Chapter 311, Texas Tax Code, as amended, the Project will comply with all local codes and ordinances. (b) Planned Unit Development Pursuant to Ordinance No. 05-S-50 adopted on December 6, 2005, the City amended its Unified Development Code by amending Article VII (Special Districts), Section 7 (Planned Unit Development), which enables the development of this Project. The PUD for the Project was amended in May 2006. No further zoning change, change to the Master Plan, building codes or other municipal ordinances is necessary for the proposed development. Section 20. Competitive Bidding; Warranties All Project elements subject to Chapter 252, Texas Local Government Code, as amended, will be constructed pursuant to competitively bid contracts. The Developer will provide the City a warranty on all public improvements constructed under the Plan for one year from the date of the City’s acceptance of the particular improvement. Section 21. Non-Project Costs The City and the Developer anticipate incurring legal, financial advisory and administrative costs in regard to creation of the Zone and annually thereafter, including the cost of reports and amendments to the Plan as needed. A list of non-project costs is included in the Development Budget at Exhibit E. Section 22. Completed Infrastructure Since the time that the City designated the Zone, the Developer has made or caused to be made infrastructure improvements within the Zone to support 171 residential lots. The cost of these improvements is included at Exhibit E. 60132537.2 4 Sedona Project and Financing Plan ARTICLE IVREINVESTMENT ZONE FINANCING PLAN. Section 23. Introduction This Reinvestment Zone Financing Plan (this “Financing Plan”) addresses funding for identified public improvements in the Project. The Project is located in the southern area of the City and encompasses approximately 825 acres. The approximate boundaries of the Project are Lower Seguin Road to the north, FM 1518 to the east, Ware Seguin Road to the south and the Air Installation Compatible Use Zone (AICUZ) relating to Randolph Air Force Base to the west. The Project will include up to 2,200 residential units, approximately 130 acres of open space, and 50 acres of commercial (retail and service) facilities. Reinvestment Zone Number Two, City of Schertz, Texas (“the Zone”) will provide a source of funding for the public improvements and enhanced infrastructure. The duration of the Zone is 21 years with the Zone being in existence through calendar year 2027. The development of the Project will be performed by the Developer, the principals of which have experience in development and construction of such projects. Section 24. Public Infrastructure The public infrastructure improvements include the construction of streets, sidewalks, drainage, sewer and water utilities, a fire station/EMS facility, public parks and other public improvements throughout the Zone. The Project will also include a new wastewater treatment plant, lift station and force main facility, and upgrades to FM 1518. The total public infrastructure capital cost (exclusive of financing costs or interest) is estimated at $41,195,225. The total project costs including administrative costs are estimated at $41,801,420. A description and depiction of the public improvements is provided at Exhibit D. The list of estimated project costs is attached with the Development Schedule as Exhibit E. The Estimated Expenditure Schedule for the Project is attached as Exhibit F. City fees to be reimbursed as Project costs will not include water, sewer, or other impact fees. Section 25. Plan of Finance (a) Appraised Value The base value of the real property within the Zone is $3,127,500. The appraised value captured from the improvements to real property within the Zone is anticipated to grow from $0.00 in Tax Year 2007 to $434,885,503 in Tax Year 2027 as shown in Exhibit G. (b) Taxing Units The taxing jurisdictions and 2007 tax rate per $100 valuation utilized in the analysis include the City at 100% of its rate of $0.4090, the County at 58% of the maintenance and operation (“M&O”) portion of its rate being $0.265594, and SARA at 55% of its rate of $0.015951. (The City, County, and SARA are referred to collectively as the “Taxing Units”). County participation is limited to a maximum of $12,123,000. Based upon these assumptions, projected annual tax increment revenues are as shown on Exhibit H. No growth in tax rates is assumed, and the following taxing jurisdictions are not expected to participate: Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City Independent School District, Bexar County Flood District (Code 8), Alamo Community College District, and Bexar County Hospital District d/b/a University Health System. 60132537.2 5 Sedona Project and Financing Plan (c) TIF Bonds No bonded indebtedness is anticipated by the City in association with this Zone. However, the City reserves the right from time to time during the duration of the Zone to issue tax-exempt bonds (“Bonds”) payable from tax increment revenue, subject to the participating taxing jurisdictions’ consent to utilization of their tax increment revenue for such purpose. Subject to the foregoing proviso, the future issuance of Bonds is at the City’s sole and absolute discretion and would be preceded by an amendment to this Plan. All proceeds from Bonds, if any, would be used to reimburse Developer for project costs under this Plan. (d) Reimbursement The cost of the public infrastructure improvements will be incurred by the Developer and reimbursed to it over time from a City-managed TIF account funded by the tax increment revenue generated within the Zone. In addition to the capital costs, other costs to be reimbursed from Zone revenue include engineering fees and the cost of the City’s legal counsel and and financial advisors involved in creating the Zone. (e) Cost and Revenue The total development costs for the public infrastructure improvements (exclusive of financing costs or interest) are provided by type of expense in Exhibit E and by year expended in Exhibit F. Revenue generated from the Zone will be used to repay this amount over the life of the Zone. Projected tax increment revenue for each year of the Zone is shown in Exhibit H. (f) Priorities Notwithstanding the above, tax increment revenue collected from the Zone shall be used first to reimburse the City for its costs in creating the Zone and to pay the costs of the City’s legal counsel and financial advisors involved in creating the Zone. Section 26. Limited Obligation of the Taxing Units The City, County and SARA will have an obligation to impose and collect taxes and deposit the agreed amount of tax receipts into a TIF fund for the Zone, up to a collective maximum of $45,000,000 (with the County’s contribution capped at $12,123,000) to repay Project Costs incurred by the Developer (including accrued interest and Developer financing costs) to the extent that construction of improvements under the Project (commenced within the time constraints of the TIF Act) produces adequate taxable value. Notwithstanding the above, the Zone collections for the Project shall not extend beyond December 31, 2027, and may be terminated prior to December 31, 2027, upon payment of the Project costs incurred by the Developer, as provided herein up to a maximum of $45,000,000, or for material default by the Developer under any development agreement on this Project entered into with the City and the Zone Board. 60132537.2 6 Sedona Project and Financing Plan Section 27. Developer’s Risk and Obligations (a) Developer’s Risk All financing, developmental costs, construction costs, improvements, damages or other costs incurred with respect to this Project are at the sole risk of the Developer. Neither the City, the County nor SARA shall incur any risk whatsoever associated with the development, construction, completion, or failure of the Project. In the event that the Project fails, is abandoned by the Developer, or for any reason is not completed, the City shall have the right to terminate the Zone and receive reimbursement for its costs in creating the Zone and to pay the costs of legal counsel and financial advisors involved in creating the Zone. Any funds remaining in the Zone account after reimbursement shall be distributed to the City, the County and SARA on a pro rata basis in accordance with each Taxing Unit’s participation level. (b) Compliance The Developer shall comply with all federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations. (c) Reporting The Developer shall submit a project status report and financial report on each March 1 and August 1, commencing on the first of such dates after the approval of this Financing Plan, to the City, the Taxing Units, and the Zone Board (defined below).

On the north corner of the tract, it slopes from the north to the south, again toward Woman Hollering Creek. Wetlands/Floodplain The Sedona land area contains a 100-year floodplain area that is centered on Woman Hollering Creek. This development project does not intend to disturb the majority of the floodplain area or streambed with any construction other than necessary drainage, utilities, and road crossings. Site Vegetation The existing site vegetation characteristics are improved pasture and grasses for livestock, agricultural uses and scattered clusters of live oaks. No substantial hardwood trees will be destroyed in connection with the development of the Sedona project. EXHIBIT C Land Use Plan (Showing Proposed Improvements) [See Attached “Sedona PUD Preliminary Lot Layout” by Vincent Gerard & Associates] 60132537.2 C -1 Sedona Project and Financing Plan EXHIBIT D Description of Public Improvements1 Development-Wide Public Improvements There will be several major elements of public infrastructure created or upgraded to provide access and services to the Sedona subdivision. These items will be designed and constructed by the developers and dedicated to the City of Schertz or, as to the FM 1518 Roadway Improvements, to the Texas Department of Transportation (“TxDOT”). Items included in these improvements are as follows: • Sanitary Sewer Services: A package treatment plant will be installed at the upstream area of Woman Hollering Creek. The permit for this plant will be secured by the Developer and finalized with the State of Texas for a maximum of 960,000 gallons per day. This is greater than will be required for the Sedona subdivision and will be transferred to the City for expansion as needed. The Sedona development will be served by package treatment plants installed in phases. The first phase will be a 160,000 gallon per day plant. Currently it is anticipated that the subsequent phases will total approximately 425,000 gallons per day plant, which will provide adequate capacity for Sedona. In addition to the upstream sewer treatment plant, a lift station will be installed at the downstream limits of Woman Hollering Creek, near FM 1518. This station will be the common gathering point for the sewer collection system, and will pump the sewage back to the plant for treatment and discharge into Woman Hollering Creek at its western limits within the subject property. These facilities operated in concert will provide adequate sanitary sewer treatment capacity for the entire Sedona subdivision. • Highway FM 1518: The primary access to the Sedona subdivision will be provided via FM 1518. This highway is adequate to provide access for the early phases of development. TxDOT has jurisdiction over this road. The current capacity of the road is adequate with the exception of the crossing at Woman Hollering Creek. A detailed drainage study was prepared which shows that this this part of the roadway is flooded and that a 100 year storm results in water flowing over the roadway approximately five feet deep. During such occurrences, the road must be closed. After discussing this situation with TxDOT, the Developer determined that upgrading the drainage system is much more advantageous than creating on-site detention facilities. Therefore a much larger drainage structure will be constructed by the Developer, to accommodate, at a minimum, a 100 year flood. The improvement is expected to consist of a bridge structure which will 1 Description prepared by the Developer. 60132537.2 D -1 Sedona Project and Financing Plan result in eliminating the flooding of this section of FM 1518. This project will be sponsored by the City, approved by TxDOT, and constructed by the Developer. • Fire Fighting/EMS Service: These services can be provided by existing City facilities for the initial phases of home construction. As the number of homes increases, however, the requirement for upgraded fire and EMS protection will require construction of an additional fire station/EMS facility. It is expected that the need for this station will occur at completion of approximately 400 to 500 units. This new station will be located along West Seguin Road at the south easterly corner of the subject property. The details of the design of the station have not yet been developed, but the design will be subject to City approval prior to obtaining any construction bids.

Bexar County participation capped at $12,123,000. 60132537.2 H -1 Sedona Project and Financing Plan EXHIBIT I Economic Feasibility Study* Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 2, City of Schertz, Texas The Developer of the Sedona residential and commercial development project petitioned the establishment of Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 2, City of Schertz, Texas (the “Zone”) to reimburse it for up to $45 million in infrastructure improvements needed to make the project financially feasible. It is anticipated that the project will include up to 2,200 new residential units and 110,000 square feet of commercial real estate. The total build out value of the project is approximately $360,000,000. The funds generated from the tax revenue on the captured appraised value and used for repayment of those infrastructure costs that will become publicly-owned improvements is imperative for this project’s success. The Sedona development project will positively impact the community by providing taxable value for each of the taxing districts that levy real property taxes in the Zone. The following illustrates the potential tax revenues the Sedona project will generate for those districts during the term of the TIRZ, and the economic impact of the project on the community. Area Overview: The Sedona project is located in the City of Schertz in the northeast portion of Bexar County, Texas. For the year 2005, the population count for the City was 23,969 residents in 8,082 households. The racial composition is 80.2% White, 6.7% Black, 0.6% American Indian, 1.8% Asian, 0.1% Pacific Islander and 10.6% Other /Multiracial. Those of Hispanic origin make up 21.3% of the City’s population. The average age is 36 years and the average household size is 3 persons. Total housing units are 8,739 with 74% owner occupied, 19% renter occupied and 7% vacant. Family households represent 80% of the area. Married couples with children comprise 43% of those family households and married couples without children make up 41%. Median income is $60,291 with 61% of the households earning $50,000 plus. In 2010, the annual median household income is forecasted to grow to $67,067. Median disposable income in 2005 was $49,855 and is anticipated to grow to $54,965 by 2010. Employment for the area for males age 16+ is 8,793 and is projected to grow by 2010 to 10,129. 70% are employed in commercial activities, 8% are employed in the armed forces, 2.6% are unemployed and 20% are not in the labor force. This is a highly educated market with less than 10% having no high school diploma and 26% with only a high school diploma. Those with some college, associate degrees, college degrees and graduate /professional degrees represent 64% of the population. * This study prepared by a market consultant under contract in preparing the preliminary financing plan. This study uses earlier projections for housing construction in Sedona. 60132537.2 A-1 Annual consumer expenditures are $444,372,000 and per household is $54,983. The following are total consumer expenditures by category: Expenditures By Category Aggregate Expenditures (000) Market Index Food $55,862.8 108 Alcoholic Beverages $4,622.9 106 Tobacco Products $2,675.1 103 Apparel & Services $17,764.2 107 Entertainment $22,710.4 108 Cash Contributions $14,854.7 100 Health Care $23,793.4 105 Transportation $85,329.8 112 Personal Insurance & Pensions $56,420.4 114 Personal Care Products & Services $5,730.1 108 Reading Materials $1,341.6 108 Educational Expenses $5,730.1 102 Miscellaneous Services $6,740.4 108 The market index is important to any commercial development. A market index over 100 means that the category is above average and the market can support additional businesses. Most retail expenditure analysis look for any market index above 90 to illustrate an area of potential strength. Therefore the commercial component of this project is very feasible based on these levels of expenditures. The northeast portion of Bexar County and part of Guadalupe County is undergoing incredible growth. The Forum shopping center with over 1.0 million square feet of retail space has maximized its development. Other developers are planning new commercial shopping areas adjacent to and across from the Forum along Interstate 35. The City of Schertz has frontage on I-35 and will receive the benefits of both new commercial taxable values as well as housing. The main reason commercial development is planned for this area is the significant residential development with home values from $140,000 to $250,000+. The houses programmed for the Sedona project fit within this range. The projected growth of the area less the Sedona project is estimated at 11% by 2010. Households are projected to grow 7.5% in that same five-year period. Total housing units are projected to grow to 8% by the year 2010 according to the US Census data with SCAN US forecasted projection for 2005 to 2010. In the immediate area of Schertz there are 20,000 lots platted for new housing. This number is not reflected by the SCAN US forecasts and therefore will increase the household growth in the area to more than double the forecast. 60132537.2 A-2 Economic Impact: Data from the US Government’s Bureau of Economic Analysis were used to determine economic impact. The data provides multipliers to determine the impact of investment /sales, earnings and indirect jobs. The following chart illustrates the real estate value of the Sedona project to the San Antonio Metropolitan Statistical Area (in San Antonio) based on annual investment by the developers and an initial, notional projection for the sale of homes: Year # Homes Online Residential Investment Infrastructure Investment Total 2007 0 0 $7,763,092 $7,763.092 2008 140 $23,927,500 $2,637,555 $26,565,055 2009 170 $27,408,900 $13,185,239 $40,594,139 2010 230 $36,462,540 $5,458,852 $41,921,392 2011 250 $39,107,772 $4,879,781 $43,987,553 2012 260 $40,360,796 $618,654 $40,979,450 2013 253 $38,676,650 $6,405,657 $45,082,307 2014 230 $34,507,772 $0 $34,507,772 2015 194 $27,591,449 $0 $27,591,449 TOTALS 1,727 $268,043,379 $40,948,830 $308,992,209 The annual economic impact of the residential value added to the San Antonio MSA is shown in the following chart: Year Investment Output Earnings Jobs 2007 $7,763,092 $13,031,126 $2,280,796 20 2008 $26,565,055 $44,592,101 $7,804,813 70 2009 $40,594,139 $68,141,322 $11,926,558 106 2010 $41,921,392 $70,369,249 $12,316,505 110 2011 $43,987,553 $73,837,506 $12,923,543 115 2012 $40,979,450 $68,788,105 $12,039,762 107 2013 $45,082,307 $75,675,161 $13,245,182 118 2014 $34,507,772 $57,924,746 $10,138,383 90 2015 $27,591,449 $46,315,006 $8,106,368 72 TOTAL: $308,929,209 $518,674,322 $95,074,133 808 The economic impact of the $16,500,000 commercial value added to the San Antonio MSA by the year 2009 results in an additional 43 jobs and $4,847,700 in earnings on $27,696,900 in output. 60132537.2 A-3 The impact on annual consumer expenditures is as follows: Year # Homes Cumulative Average Household.

The expenditure potential reflects the cumulative number of homes on line each year until total build out. The project at its notional build out of 1,727 new homes will add $108,654,060 in annual consumer expenditures. The captured tax revenue from the Zone is based on contributions from the City of Schertz, Bexar County, and the San Antonio River Authority.

In the year 2027, the TIRZ will have reimbursed the developer in full and at that time the City of Schertz, Bexar County, and San Antonio River Authority will begin receiving all of the taxes on the increased value. The consumer expenditures provided by this project will also increase the sales tax on taxable goods and services. In summary, the Sedona development, brings a total amount of $361,272,012 at 2% average value growth per year. The contribution of sales tax revenues commences in 2007 with $514,295 and rises rapidly until by 2015 bringing in $7,765,134 annually in additional tax revenues for the said entities not participating in the TIRZ. 60132537.2 A-5 60132537.2 A-6 Source of Data: Innovative Economic Development Resources, Inc. the market analyst consultant, purchases demographic data from a nationally based research company known as SCAN-US. SCAN-US trends, forecasts and projects information based on historical changes in the US Census. For example, to determine a percentage of growth, the 1990 census is compared to the 2000 census and the growth rate is averaged on an annual basis. This is the methodology used to project the trends until the next census in 2010. In areas where dramatic growth is being experienced, rates which and far exceeds the forecasted census data is to be expected. Since those actual growths cannot be accounted for until the next census, a projected growth rate is taken into consideration on a separate basis. Retail expenditures are based no how a certain demographic profile spends money within a geographic area. Therefore actual retail expenditures for a city or county may be different than SCANUS projected expenditures. Though SCAN-US is a nationally recognized research data company, discrepancies in data can be found when trying to match a population of a city with the populations of the zip codes that make up the same area as the City. Those discrepancies are minimal and appropriate adjustments are made if and when they happen. Projections for output, earnings and job creation are based on the US Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic and Statistical Analysis (BEA). Multipliers are used for specific categories of business. Data can be obtained either by city, county or Metropolitan Statistical Area. The Sedona project in Schertz used Bexar County RIMS II data. This data revealed the onetime impact of the Sedona residential and commercial development on Bexar County. While the results of the analysis are on an area larger than the City, the majority of goods and services most Sedona residents will use will be within a ten to twenty-minute drive time. Therefore the City is expected to receive a significant benefit from the Sedona project.

UDC Article 5, Section 2.2 The City Council may impose additional reasonable restrictions or conditions to carry out the spirit and intent of the UDC and to mitigate adverse effects of the proposed use. These requirements may include, but are not limited to, increased open space loading and parking Item 6 Arrington Self Storage-[11-4-08].doc City Council Memorandum Page 2 Item 6 Arrington Self Storage-[11-4-08].doc requirements, suitable landscaping and additional improvements such as curbing and sidewalks.
