Re: Consider and Take Appropriate Action on Resolution No. 14-2015, Adopting
Guidelines and Criteria for Tax Abatement Within Reinvestment Zones for
the City of Canyon.
________________________________________________________________________
As part of the economic incentives to be considered in connection with the Lone Star Dairy
Products Economic Development Package, the creation of a Reinvestment Zone for purposes
of a tax abatement agreement with the developer was suggested. As you know, discussions
have been ongoing for some time regarding a Tax Abatement Agreement with the City of
Canyon. The first step in creation of a Reinvestment Zone is the adoption of guidelines and
criteria by way of Resolution. For this purpose we have proposed Resolution No. 14-2015
which is based upon the requirements of SUBCHAPTER A AND B OF CHAPTER 312 OF THE TEXAS
TAX CODE which will permit us to go forward with the adoption of an Ordinance to create
Reinvestment zone 1 in the City of Canyon. We cannot issue a Notice of Public Hearing or
place the Ordinance to create the zone on the agenda for action until we have the guidelines
and criteria in place.
It is my recommendation that Resolution No. 14-2015 be adopted as presented.

RESOLUTION NO. 14-2015
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF CANYON ADOPTING GUIDELINES
AND CRITERIA FOR TAX ABATEMENT WITHIN REINVESTMENT
ZONES FOR THE CITY OF CANYON; PROVIDING A SEVERANCE
CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
________________________________________________________________
WHEREAS, the City of Canyon desires to participate in tax abatements from time to
time as the City Commission may find appropriate, in accordance with the criteria and guidelines
herein adopted;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF CANYON, TEXAS;
SECTION 1. That for tax abatements in reinvestment zones adopted by the City of
Canyon, the fundamental purpose is to stimulate growth and create jobs, and the following
guidelines and general criteria will apply:
A. Tax abatements may be provided for both new facilities and structures and for the
expansion or modernization of existing facilities and structures. Each project proposed
for tax abatement shall be considered individually on its own merits, benefit to the public,
and in context of any other economic incentives for the project or existing in the
reinvestment zone.
B. The developer, property owner, project owner, or other recipient of a tax
abatement must annually certify in writing to the governing body of each participating
taxing unit that the developer, owner or recipient is in compliance with each applicable
term of the tax abatement agreement.
C. Only the taxable value of improvements to real property or tangible personal
property that is brought to the real property after the execution of a tax abatement
agreements will qualify for tax abatement.
D. A tax abatement agreement must ensure that the periods of abatement are directly
proportional to the capital expenditures for improvements and the number of permanent
full-time jobs created.
E. Expansion or modernization of existing facilities qualifies for tax abatement if the
expansion meets the qualifications for capital expenditures and nets new jobs.
The number of jobs created must be new jobs and not replacement of jobs which were in
the payroll within the year immediately prior to application for tax abatement. A tax
abatement shall not be granted if the facility has been the subject of or included in a prior
(resolution.0__-2015)
tax abatement agreement.
F. If a new facility is constructed to replace an existing facility, and the existing
facility is abandoned by the developer, property owners, project owner, or other recipient
of a tax abatement, only the difference in taxable value of the new facility over the
existing facility will qualify for tax abatement.
G. An agreement will be executed by the developer, property owner, project owner,
or other recipient of a tax abatement which incorporates the terms of this resolution and
includes any other site and development specific terms which might be found applicable
at the time.
H. The tax abatement agreement will require, among other things, that the City of
Canyon will have the right of access to the site and books and records of the applicant for
tax abatement to determine compliance with statutory requirements and the agreement.
Failure to fulfill any of the requirements of the agreement will result in cancellation of
the agreement and retroactive loss of tax abatement.
SECTION 2. If any provision, section, subsection, sentence, clause or the application of
same to any person or set of circumstances for any reason is held to be unconstitutional, void or
invalid or for any reason unenforceable, the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance
or the application thereby shall remain in effect, it being the intent of the City Commission of the
City of Canyon, Texas in adopting this ordinance, that no portion thereof or provision contained
herein shall become inoperative or fail by any reasons of unconstitutionality of any other portion
or provision.
SECTION 3. This resolution shall become and be effective on and after its date of
adoption.
INTRODUCED AND PASSED by the City Commission of the City of Canyon, Texas on
the 20th day of July, 2015.

Re: First Reading of Resolution No. 15-2015 Considering the Job Creation
Incentive Package for Lone Star Dairy Producers, LLC.
During the June 11, 2015 meeting of the Canyon Economic Development Corporation action
was taken to approve a job incentive package for Lone Star Dairy Producers. A public hearing
was held on June 11, 2015 and there was not any opposition.
The job incentive shall consist of ten(10) total installments over a 10 year period, not to exceed
$850,000. The first installment will be payable when the plant opens for production, with
subsequent installments being payable on the anniversary date of the first installment.
The employee model for Lone Star Dairy Producers is to have sixty (60) full time employees

From: Jon Behrens, ACM – Special Projects
Date: July 6, 2015
Re: Funding Sources for Aquatic Center
In May I was asked by the City Commission to look into additional funding sources for a Family Aquatic
Center.
I have made the following contacts related to the pursuit of additional funds:
1. Communicated with Kyle Ingham, Local Government Services Director at PRPC, regarding any
possible funding source from the State of Texas. The available Texas Parks and Wildlife programs
are generally associated with funding of projects associated with recreation occurring on naturally
occurring bodies of water. It is my impression from our conversation that our project would have
no chance of receiving any funding from this source.
2. I communicated with Shane Stokes, City Manager of Pampa, related to the funding of their aquatic
facility. Shane stated that Pampa did put in a great deal of work applying for a TP&W grant and
received no funding. In Pampa the community raised a small amount of money, 4B EDC
committed $1 million and the City used revenue bonds to fund the remainder of the cost. The City
did not take the project to the voters through a bond election.
3. Evelyn Ecker and I met with Charlotte Rhodes of the Amarillo Area Foundation to discuss possible
assistance. Charlotte seemed optimistic that the Foundation might be interested in participating in
the project. Until the Commission has demonstrated interest in the project, through the
commitment to fund or calling for a bond election, we would not be in a positon to submit an
application for consideration.
