Call to Order The meeting was called to order at 2:06 p.m. 2. Roll Call Present: Mayor Hughson, Council Member Baker, Commissioner Debbie Ingalsbe, Commissioner Lon Shell, and Mr. Kyle Mylius. Absent: None City staff present: Bert Lumbreras, Stephanie Reyes, Michael Cosentino, Marie Kalka, Anna Miranda, Stephanie Eller, Shannon Mattingly, Laurie Moyer, Rebecca Ybarra, Peter Binion, Josie Falletta, and outside counsel Bart Fowler. 3. Citizen Comment Lisa Marie Coppoletta: Joined late due to meeting link not working properly. Did not receive confirmation regarding sign up for the citizen comment period. Brought up concern regarding gas leak, thanked Laurie specifically for returning phone call about the gas leak. She wanted to point out that not everyone is on Facebook, recommends that the city should also send a text notification. Would like to see everyone in attendance to the meeting, not just the speaker. Commented on Agenda packets not being available, there have not been Citizen Comment Periods previously and there no questions from the Press & Public on the agenda. With the secrecy of the agenda and minutes, have the residents in the area been notified of the issues with TCEQ, will they be notified of the demo, and why was the public not told about this before the $2.4 million investment. Do not understand how it was able to get this far and why the information from the TCEQ was not in the packet when the City of San Marcos purchased this property. There is a robust article at the SM Corridor News calling this the $2 million bail out. Concerned that the Citizens and the elected officials did not know about the TCEQ issues. Did not receive reports until after decision/purchase was made. Finally, what is this purchase for, we haven’t been told, it wasn’t discussed when the city council made the investment, it hasn’t been discussed at the HBC. Feel that residents deserve this information. 4. Consider approval, by motion of the December 13, 2021 meeting minutes Commissioner Shell made a motion to approve, seconded by Commissioner Ingalsbe, approved unanimously. 2 5. Update regarding Activities and Projects approved in Project & Financing Plan Josie Falletta provided downtown update. Working on funding, noted LBJ as one of the top priority items.

Laurie on Property Acquisition – multiple concerns regarding contamination, closing up on TCEQ Clearance. 6. Update regarding financials Marie Kalka went over financial reports through September 30, 2021. Mr. Mylius asked about the 5% growth being a conservative figure. Ms. Kalka briefly went over previous years. 7. Visioning session for discussion, direction and action as appropriate for the Project & Financing Plan Project & Financing plan:  Ms. Kalka provided brief introduction.  Mr. Lumbreras shared the prospective of the work leading up to this agenda setting.  Mayor Hughson shared some ideas, main goal to increase commerce downtown, to help ensure local businesses are successful, and to create a climate for more diverse businesses.  Various options were discussed in support of increasing downtown commerce and enjoyment by the public including beautification projects.  Consensus on the use of TIRZ cash funds for projects versus issuing debt.  Discussion on outreach/timeline for receiving ideas regarding beautification and improvements using TIRZ funding. Josie is working on kick off of Downtown Master Plan process. Which could be a great opportunity to include this in the master plan and prioritize projects that would positively impact downtown business the most.  Mr. Lumbreras asked for clarification regarding main goals. Vote unanimous for beautification. Mr. Lumbreras also suggested a parking management/parking partnership possibility. Contribution Rates:  Discussion regarding contribution rate. Consensus reached on increasing the contribution rate back up to 70% from past two years of 25%. Commissioner Shell – yes, Commissioner Ingalsbe – yes, Mr. Baker – yes, Mr. Mylius – yes, Mayor – yes. Mr. Mylius posed question regarding a way to prorate or increase above 70% to recoup any shortfall from FY21 & FY22? Ms. Kalka responded that it was decreased due to the financial challenges faced during the pandemic. Concern is that there are still potential challenges. 3 Process:  What is the expectation of the process for requesting to bring items to the board and process for requesting funding? Mayor’s thoughts are to do something similar to the BIG grant program & Arts Funding.  All members in agreeance that there should be a simple application, some review by staff but the board would like to see all applications submitted. Submissions accepted twice per year with possible submissions in between periods depending on nature and urgency of request.  Ms. Kalka inquired on the requests already received, Chief Standridge presented on the Gun Shot Detection Cameras for the downtown area. Motion to approve by Ingalsbe made and then withdrawn per Mr. Cosentino recommendation to hold special meeting to discuss and vote as this specific item was not listed on the agenda to approve funds.  Board agreed to Special Short Meeting, to present PD request and business owner request. Agreed to bypass application process for the current requests. 8. Set Dates & Times for 2022 Board Meetings March 3rd, 2022 at 2:00 P.M June 3rd, 2022 at 2:00 P.M. September 8th, 2022 at 2:00 P.M.

Cities may create a TIRZ where conditions exist that substantially impair an area’s sound growth and where development or enhancements financed by the TIRZ significantly enhance the value of all the taxable real property in a TIRZ and of general benefit to the city or county. Prior to creation, the statute requires preparation of a preliminary project plan and reinvestment zone financing plan outlining specific projects to address the existing conditions and the method and means to finance those projects. Upon creation, the total appraised value of real property located in a TIRZ is established for the year in which it was created. This is known as the base value. As new development occurs in a TIRZ, the value of real property increases. This additional value above the base value is known as the tax increment. Such tax increment is typically set aside to finance improvements within a TIRZ including public infrastructure. Once all projects are complete or after a defined period of time, a TIRZ is dissolved. During the life of a TIRZ, a city and other participating taxing jurisdictions collect tax revenue on the base value of a TIRZ as well as sales and use tax revenue generated by new development (unless a city or county agrees that sales tax and use revenue are also part of the increment). When a TIRZ is dissolved, a city and other participating taxing jurisdictions collect tax revenue on the tax increment value created by new development as well. Assessed Value (AV) ent New lo pm e ve Post-Project AV mD V f ro Incremental AV Total AV now se dA Incremental real belongs to all re a In c property tax taxing belongs to TIRZ to pay project costs districts in project area Base AV AV belongs to all taxing districts in project area 5-Year TIRZ Created Terminated City of San Marcos Zone No. 5 Project Plan and Financing Plan 3 10 REV DRAFT March 20221 Executive Summary The proposed City of San Marcos, Texas (the "City") Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 5 ("Zone No. 5") consists of approximately 244 acres in the downtown core. The City has addressed one challenge, zoning standards that are inconsistent and contrary to creating a downtown environment, with the adoption of the San Marcos SmartCode (the "SmartCode") in 2011, putting in place a zoning that is predictable and focused on preserving downtown character while enabling pedestrian-oriented mixed-use development. In 2018, the City updated the Development Code and relabeled the downtown core as Character District 5 Downtown (CD-5D). Some of the other downtown challenges remain: a shortage of Class A office space, parking and pedestrian mobility, lack of sufficient lighting and downtown amenities and aesthetic features, and the condition of the streetscape and sidewalks in parts of downtown. One of the financial tools identified in the plan to help address these challenges is the creation of a tax increment reinvestment zone. Under this proposed plan, the City and Hays County (the "County") would participate equally in a tax increment reinvestment zone projected to generate approximately $15,831,450 over the current life of Zone No. 5. It is currently proposed that Zone No. 5 increment revenues will be allocated for parking, including acquisition of land, multi-modal transportation/mobility, sidewalks, safety considerations, improved lighting, beautification and streetscaping, annual downtown operations plan and overall enhancement of downtown that draws individuals downtown as allowed by Section 311.010(h) of the Texas Tax Code. In order to be eligible for Zone No. 5 tax increment revenues, projects must (a) support multi- modal transportation and mobility including sidewalks and downtown shuttle services (b) provide overall enhancement of the downtown area including but not limited to lighting, safety and other aesthetic features and/or (c) include acquisition of property for parking and other public priorities with the amounts allocated to include the required operation and maintenance costs within Zone. No. 5. In addition, funds will be allocated annually for a downtown operations plan. The true value of this approach is that it powerfully leverages tax increment revenues for economic development beyond streetscape or maintenance improvements on a given block. The potential increase in tax base can help in supporting possible future job creation through business relocation to the downtown area along with growth of existing businesses which create jobs. This approach also will encourage the engagement of higher education and other potential research partners through the focus on technology and research, ultimately ensuring that the site will be developed to its highest and best use. City of San Marcos Zone No. 5 Project Plan and Financing Plan 4 11 REV DRAFT March 20221 Location As proposed, Zone No. 5 extends from Texas State University to the North, to IH-35 to the South, CM Allen and McKie on the East and several blocks to the West. All of the land within proposed Zone No. 5 is part of the Charter District-5 Downtown (CD-5D) and currently includes a number of different types of uses including commercial, retail, restaurants, residential and offices within the boundaries. As provided in the April 1, 2010 economic analysis prepared for the City by Urban Advisors for the current Downtown Master Plan, the City's goal is to encourage a mix of new uses to accommodate additional housing, office space, retail, transportation, safety and parking facilities. Designation of Zone No. 5 assists the City in implementing the Downtown Master Plan and projects brought forth through future master plans. Project Overview and Project Costs 1. Infrastructure supporting cohesive redevelopment Zone No. 5 tax increment revenues shall be made available to facilitate investment in infrastructure or other improvements allowed by law that facilitate the following potential projects. This Project and Finance Plan will be amended as may be required by law to accommodate additional uses of the tax increment revenues within Zone No. 5: a. Projects that support multi-modal transportation and mobility including sidewalks and downtown shuttle services. b. Overall enhancement of the downtown area including but not limited to lighting, safety and other aesthetic features. c. Acquisition of property for parking and other public priorities with the amounts allocated to include the required operation and maintenance costs.

No. 5. In addition, funds will be allocated annually for a downtown operations plan. Expenditures associated with the design and construction of Zone No. 5 Projects, as well as other specific project-related costs, will be funded by tax increment revenues derived from increases in property values resulting from the new development in Zone No. 5. The City may amend this Project and Finance Plan as may be necessary in accordance with law to accommodate the other redevelopment goals and projects outlined under "Project Overview and Project Costs."
