City of Southlake, Texas MEMORANDUM May 9, 2001 TO: SPDC Members FROM: Kevin Hugman, Director of Community Services (xt. 1527) SUBJECT: Approval of change order with Botanical Technologies to construct restroom building #2 at Bob Jones Park Action Requested: SPDC approval of change order with Botanical Technologies to construct restroom building #2 at Bob Jones Park. Background Information: At the July 10, 2000 SPDC meeting, SPDC approved the proposed materials palette and design of Bob Jones Park components. During the discussions, SPDC directed staff to pursue adding a second restroom facility at Bob Jones Park to service the planned six practice ballfields. At the September 25, 2000 meeting SPDC approved the fiscal year 2000-01 Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) which included an additional $450,000 for improvements at Bob Jones Park. The added funding is intended to provide for design and construction of a second restroom facility to be located near the practice ball fields, a second well and well pump house for the proposed south ponds, water aeration features, and corresponding electrical. At the October 23, 2000 SPDC meeting and the November 7, 2000 City Council meeting, an agreement was approved with Cheatham and Associates to do the additional design and engineering at a cost of $30,000, approximately 7% based on a construction budget of $420,000. The bulk of the design fees, approximately $25,000, was for architectural services relating to the restroom building and the pump house building. While the complete restroom/concession structure was designed, it was done in such a manner as to allow only the restroom portion to be constructed presently. On January 2, 2001, SPDC and City Council awarded the bid for construction of Bob Jones Park Phase II construction to Botanical Technologies in the amount of $2,529,041.23. The major components of the project include six (6) practice ballfields, parking lots, small pond, amphitheater, multi -use trails (hard and soft), north concession/restroom building near the existing soccer fields, pavilion/boardwalk, day camp area, a portion of the loop road, and associated infrastructure. Botanical Technologies recently submitted a change order proposal in the amount of $292,306 to the City for construction of the second restroom to be located between the six practice fields at Bob Jones Park. The restroom L L t SPDC Members May 9, 2001 Page 2 Financial Considerations: Citizen Input/ Board Review: f Legal Review: Alternatives: Supporting Documents: Staff Recommendation: fd building will utilize the same basic construction design and materials (stone facade and metal roof), but will not include a concessions stand, storage area, or covered breezeway, although it can be expanded at a later date to include these components if desired. Staff is presently working with Botanical Technologies to reduce the change order request amount through the elimination or reduction of the administrative costs (telephone, project manager, trailer, job superintendent, etc.) Funding in the amount of $450,000 is available in the FY 2000-01 SPDC Fund, of which $300,000 was encumbered for the second restroom building. Approval of the change order would account for an increase of approximately 11.5 % of the contract amount with Botanical Technologies ($2,529,041), well below the 25 % maximum allowed by State law. SPDC approved funding for the second restroom at their September 25, 2000 meeting as part of the SPDC CIP approval process. An amendment with Cheatham and Associates for the design work was approved by SPDC at the October 23, 2000 meeting (5-0), and by City Council at the November 7, 2000 meeting (6-0) . Not Applicable.

Agenda Item No. 2. Executive Session. Due to the shortness of the planned meeting, we do not have plans at this time to discuss any items during executive session. Agenda Item No. 4A. Resolution No. SPDC 01-02, authorizing the issuance of SPDC Sales tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2001. As you recall, in March the Corporation authorized a public hearing be set for the purpose of issuing SPDC bonds to fund capital projects. This item is the public hearing that was scheduled, and if approved, will authorize the issuance of $4,690,000 in bonds. This is the planned issuance that is accounted for in this years SPDC CIP. If you have any questions, please contact Sharen Elam. 2. Agenda Item No. 4B Approval of Change Order No. 1 with Botanical Technologies to construct restroom building #2 at Bob Jones Park. During the Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) discussions with SPDC last summer, the Board requested that staff pursue moving up the construction of restroom #2 at Bob Jones Park (south area by practice ballfields) to the current project year. SPDC subsequently approved the FY 2001-2002 CIP with an additional $450,000 in the Bob Jones Park project for the addition of this restroom and features associated with the second pond (south of the practice ballfields). After completing construction drawings for the second restroom (the design is similar to the north restroom/concession building, except for the breezeway and concession area), staff pursued a change order with the contractor currently on the project — Botanical Technologies. The proposed change order amount is $292,306, which is within the estimated $300,000 allocated for the facility, and is well within the maximum.25% increase of an awarded contract (being 11.5% of the awarded contract of $2,529,041). Staff is presently working with the contractor to reduce this amount for some costs we feel are unnecessary, and will be prepared to discuss the results of these efforts at your meeting on Tuesday. At last month's meeting during the discussions on the softball complex, there was some discussion by Board members about not doing this facility at this time. If the Board desires to delay this project, we will only incur the design fees at this time and the bulk of the funding for the restroom can be held in reserve. However, it is likely the facility will cost more to construct at a later date due to the fact that a contractor is already on site at this time. Additionally, there is still a need for a restroom building at that end of the park. Since the building also accommodates the electrical panels necessary for the parking lot SPDC Board of Directors Board Meeting — Monday, April 23, 2001 Page 2 lighting and well pump, staff needs direction on this project soon in order to continue progress on the construction. We appreciate your commitment and service to the City. If you have any questions regarding the agenda or materials, please feel free to contact me at 481-1527.

REGULAR AGENDA: L'01 Agenda Item No. 4A. Resolution No. SPDC 01-02, authorizing the issuance of "Southlake Parks Development Corporation Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 2001"; pledging certain "Pledged Revenues" of the Corporation, including "Gross Sales Tax Revenues," to the payment of the principal of and interest on said Bonds and enacting other provisions incident and related to the issuance, payment, security and delivery of said bonds, including the approval and execution of a Paying Agent/Registrar Agreement, a Purchase Contract and a Financing/Use Agreement with the City and the approval and distribution of an Official Statement, and resolving. Finance Director Sharen Elam reminded the Board that in March SPDC authorized a public hearing to be set on this date for the purpose of issuing SPDC bonds to fund capital projects. Approval of Resolution No. SPDC 01-02 authorizes the issuance of $4,690,000 in bonds, which is accounted for in this years' SPDC CIP. Ms. Elam further explained that in order for the sales tax revenue bonds to be issued, the City Council must also consider a resolution that authorizes SPDC to issue the bonds. This is required under Section 4B of the Development Corporation Act of 1979. The resolution will also include a Financing/Use Agreement with SPDC, in which the Board authorizes the City to construct projects and to invest and disburse funds. f Financial Consultant Jim Sabonis made a brief presentation and handed out a "Summary of Bond Sale" to the Board for reference. Mr. Sabonis explained that due to the market, interest rates have increased slightly, but the rate for these bonds is still very good. He emphasized that SPDC's rate is based on historical sales tax collections. He also informed the Board that if rates should come down and sales tax collections increase, the Board could look at refunding, but he would not look at this as a temporary financial obligation - still need to plan on long term financing. Mayor Stacy asked if the SPECIAL SPDC MEETING MINUTES - MAY 15, 2001, PAGE 1 OF 3 L Board could reallocate the money to different projects than what was originally planned. Mr. Sabonis commented that there is some flexibility if it were based on the changing needs of the community. Mayor Stacy commented that SPDC needs the cash flow now, but he does not want to see a 30-year debt. He commented that SPDC should be able to look at refunding in a couple of years. Councilmember Potter agreed that SPDC should be able to look at it again in at least five years. There were no comments during the Public Hearing. Motion was made to adopt Resolution No. SPDC 01-02 authorizing the issuance of "Southlake Parks Development Corporation Sales Tax Subordinate Lien Revenue Bonds, Series 2001" in the aggregate principal amount of $4,690,000 at a true interest cost rate of 5.6508938%; approving and authorizing the execution of a Paying Agent/Registrar Agreement with the Chase Manhattan Bank, a Financing/Use Agreement with the City, and a Bond Purchase Contract with J.P. Morgan in relation to such Bonds; approving the insurance commitment and Guaranty Agreement with Ambac Assurance Corporation and approving and authorizing distribution of the Official Statement. Motion: Potter Second: White Ayes: Berman, Kendall, Potter, Stacy, Stephens, White Nays: none Approved: 6-0 Agenda Item No. 4B. Approval of Change Order No. 1 with Botanical Technology to construct restroom building #2 at Bob Jones Park. Community Services Director Kevin Hugman explained that during the CIP discussions with SPDC last summer, the Board requested that staff pursue moving up the construction of restroom #2 at Bob Jones Park. SPDC subsequently approved the FY 2001-2002 CIP with an additional $450,000 in the Bob Jones Park project for the addition of this restroom. Staff then pursued a change order with the contractor currently on the project - Botanical Technologies. The proposed change order amount is $292,306 which is well within the maximum 25 % increase of an awarded contract (being 11.5 % of the awarded contract of $2,529,045). Staff tried to work with the contractor to reduce this amount because they felt some costs were unnecessary. The contractor was not willing to delete the costs recommended by staff, therefore, staff recommends the bid be rejected and staff be authorized to put the facility out for competitive bidding. Mr. Hugman said they felt comfortable that the cost would decrease substantially if it were competitively bid. He also reminded the Board that at the last SPDC meeting during the discussion on the softball complex, there was some discussion by Board members about not doing restroom #2 at this time and possibly reallocating the funds to the softball complex project at Bicentennial Park. If the Board desires to delay the project, we will only incur the design fees at this time and the bulk of the funding for the restroom can be held in reserve. The Board agreed that before committing the funds to restroom #2 at Bob Jones, they would like to see the project bid and look more closely at alternatives for the softball complex. There were no comments from the audience during the public hearing.

The required deposits to the Bond Fund for the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds shall continue to be made as hereinabove provided until (i) the total amount on deposit in the Bond Fund and Reserve Fund is equal to the amount required to fully pay and discharge all Parity Obligations (principal and interest) then Outstanding or (ii) the Bonds are no longer Outstanding. SECTION 14: Reserve Fund. (a) General Provisions. The Corporation agrees and covenants to create and maintain on the books and records of the Corporation a separate and special fund or account to be known as the "Subordinate Lien Reserve Account' (the 'Reserve Fund"), which fund or account shall be a special banking fund maintained at a Depository. The amounts deposited to the credit of such fund or account shall be used solely for the payment of (i) the principal of and interest on the Parity Obligations when (whether at maturity, upon a redemption date or any interest payment date) other funds available for such purposes are insufficient, (ii) the amounts required to restore or replenish in full the surety bond coverage afforded by a surety bond representing all or a portion of the Required Reserve, and, in addition, may be used to the extent not required to maintain the "Required Reserve", to pay, or provide V,. for the payment of, the final principal amount of a series of Parity Obligations so that such series of Parity Obligations is no longer deemed to be "Outstanding" as such term is defined herein. The Required Reserve shall be established and maintained with Pledged Revenues, the proceeds of sale of Parity Obligations or by depositing to the credit of the Reserve Fund one or more surety bonds issued by a company or institution having a rating in the highest rating category by two nationally recognized rating agencies or services, or any combination thereof. In accordance with the provisions of the resolution authorizing the issuance of the Previously Issued Bonds, the amount currently on deposit to the credit of the Reserve Fund is $302,900 (the "Current Reserve") which amount is fully funded with a surety obligation issued by Ambac Assurance Corporation. As a result of the issuance of the Bonds, the Required Reserve is hereby recalculated and determined to be $ , and the Corporation hereby covenants and agrees to cause any deficiency in the Required Reserve to be funded in full on the date of the delivery of the Bonds with available Pledged Revenues, the proceeds of sale of Bonds or by depositing to the credit of the Reserve Fund one or more surety bonds issued by a company or institution having a rating in the highest rating category by two nationally recognized rating agencies or services, or any combination thereof. On the date the Bonds are delivered to the initial purchasers, the Corporation shall deposit to the credit of the Reserve Fund an additional surety bond provided by Ambac Assurance Corporation ("Ambac") with surety bond coverage in an amount equal to the difference between the Required Reserve and the Current Reserve. As and when Additional Obligations are delivered or incurred, the Required Reserve shall be increased, if required, to an amount equal to the lesser of either (i) the maximum annual Debt Service (calculated on a Fiscal Year basis) for all Parity Obligations then Outstanding 45031282 18 11 (after giving effect to the issuance of the Additional Obligations), as determined on the date each series of Additional Obligations are delivered or incurred, as the case may be, or (ii) the maximum amount that can be invested without restriction as to yield in a reasonably required reserve fund pursuant to Subsection (d) of Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and regulations promulgated thereunder. Any additional amount required to be maintained in the Reserve Fund shall be accumulated (i) by depositing to the credit of the Reserve Fund (immediately after the delivery of the then proposed Additional Obligations) cash or an additional surety bond or revised surety bond with surety bond coverage in an amount sufficient to provide for the new Required Reserve to be fully or partially funded, or (ii) at the option of the Corporation, by making monthly deposits from funds in the Pledged Revenue Fund, after paying or making provision for all priority payments for the Priority Bonds, on or before the 10th day of each month following the month of delivery of the then proposed Additional Obligations, of not less than 1/36th of the additional amount to be maintained in said Fund by reason of the issuance of the Additional Obligations then being issued (or 1/36th of the balance of the additional amount not deposited immediately in cash or provided by a surety bond). While the cash and investments and/or surety bond coverage in the Reserve Fund total not less than the Required Reserve, no deposits need be made to the credit of the Reserve Fund. Should the Reserve Fund at any time contain less than the Required Reserve (or so much thereof as shall then be required to be contained therein if Additional Obligations have been issued and the Corporation has elected to accumulate all or a portion of the Required Reserve with Pledged Revenues) or should the Corporation be obligated to repay or reimburse an issuer of a surety bond to replenish and restore the full amount of surety bond coverage provided by a surety bond held for the account of the Reserve Fund, the Corporation covenants and agrees to cause monthly deposits to be made to the Reserve Fund on or before the 10th irrr day of each month (beginning the month next following the month the deficiency in the Required Reserve occurred by reason of a draw on the Reserve Fund or as a result of a reduction in the market value of investments held for the account of the Reserve Fund) from Pledged Revenues in an amount equal to (i) 1/36th of the Required Reserve until the total Required Reserve then required to be maintained in said Fund has been fully restored or (ii) the amounts required to be reimbursed and repaid to the issuer of the surety bond in the event of a draw upon a surety bond. The Corporation further covenants and agrees that the Pledged Revenues shall be applied and appropriated and used to establish and maintain the Required Reserve and to cure any deficiency in such amounts as required -by the terms of this Resolution and any Supplemental Resolution. During such time as the Reserve Fund contains the total Required Reserve, the Corporation may, at its option, withdraw any amount in the Reserve Fund in excess of the Required Reserve and deposit such surplus in the Bond Fund.

The Corporation further covenants and agrees that the Pledged Revenues shall be applied and appropriated and used to establish and maintain the Required Reserve and to cure any deficiency in such amounts as required by the terms of this Resolution and any Supplemental Resolution.

Dated May 15, the bonds will mature serially from Aug. 15, 2025-2031. Bonds maturing on and after Aug. 15, 2025 are subject to optional redemption on Feb. 15, 2011 or any date thereafter at par plus accrued interest. Security: The bonds are special obligations of the corporation, payable solely from and secured only by a lien on the pledged revenues, including the receipts of sales taxes levied for the benefit of the corporation. However, the lien on pledged revenues securing payment is junior and subordinate to the prior lien on pledged revenues securing the payment of priority bonds. Purpose: Bond proceeds will be used to purchase land and to make improvements in new and existing neighborhood parks, including related road and street enhancements. May 14, 2001 Public Finance Southlake Parks Development Corporation, Texas Outlook The `A—' rating on the subordinate lien bonds reflects the healthy growth of dedicated sales tax revenues, adequate legal provisions and debt service coverage, and manageable future borrowing plans. The local and surrounding economic service area has performed well, with admirable income and employment levels. Southlake is experiencing dynamic growth, guided by a focused economic development strategy to attract additional retail and commercial concerns. The additional parity obligations requirement calls for 1.25 times (x) debt service coverage for the issuance of subordinate lien obligations. The capital plan includes a fiscal 2003 subordinate lien bond issue of approximately $5.5 million to fund park development projects. Given the rapid growth of the community, expansion of the sales tax base, and priority of capital funding for the park system, the outlook for this credit is stable. Rating Considerations On Nov. 3, 1993, the voters in Southlake approved the levy of a''/z cent sales tax for the benefit of the Southlake Parks Development Corporation. The corporation promotes and provides for economic development within the city and state to eliminate unemployment and underemployment by developing and financing municipally owned projects, such as public parks and related facilities. The city council appoints the members of the board of directors of the corporation, and the city must approve certain actions of the corporation, including the issuance of bonds and undertaking of projects. Collection of the municipal sales tax for the corporation commenced in April 1994. Receipts for fiscal 1995 totaled over $516,000 and grew to more than $1.8 million at the end of fiscal 2000. A 15% increase is projected for fiscal 2001, bringing total projected collections to just under $2 million; year-to-date collections are slightly over budget. Projected growth is attributable to the completion of new retail establishments in the city. Two new developments are under varying stages of completion and construction, Town Square and Gateway Plaza, which will include numerous retail opportunities for residents. Also, Sabre Corp., a leader in the travel and transportation information and technology industry, has selected a Southlake site for its corporate campus headquarters, which is expected to employ 10,000. The city has experienced explosive population growth, from 7,409 in 1990 to an estimated 24,075 for 2001. Residential development has slowed slightly; however, the new home construction values averaged over $298,000 in fiscal 2000, excluding land. Demographic information reports high household income levels for Southlake residents. The corporation currently has $12.9 million of priority bonds outstanding from two previous issues. This is the second issue of www.fitchratings.com FITCH IBCA, DUFF & PHELPS subordinate lien debt, with $4.2 million outstanding. Capital projects are also funded on a pay-as-you-go basis by transfers from the corporation. The only operational expenditure currently funded from the corporation is the salary of one staff member, although future operational expenses may be funded from this source. Ending fund balances for the corporation ranged from $393,000 in fiscal 1995 to $1.1 million in 2000. Projected maximum annual debt service (MADS) for all outstanding obligations, including the subordinate lien bonds, occurs in 2015 at approximately $1.5 million. Coverage of MADS is 1.36x based on the last 12 consecutive months of sales tax receipts, and average annual debt service coverage is 1.46x. The corporation is considered a component unit of the city and, therefore, is included in its financial reporting. Strengths • Favorable local and regional income and economic environment. • Recent and future development of additional retail establishments. • Impressive historical sales tax receipt growth. Risks • Potential volatility in sales tax collection repayment source. Very slow amortization rate. Security Provisions The bonds are special obligations of the corporation, payable solely from and secured by a lien of and pledge of pledged revenues of the corporation. However, the lien on and pledge of the pledged revenues are junior and subordinate to the prior lien on and pledge to the payment of priority bonds now outstanding or hereafter issued. The pledged revenues include the revenues from a sales and use tax levied within the city. Flow of Funds: The sales tax is collected by the state comptroller of public accounts and then remitted to the city, followed by a transfer to the corporation. The pledged revenues are then deposited sequentially blic Finance into: the special funds and accounts maintained for the payment and security of the priority bonds; the bond fund for the payment of debt service on parity obligations as the debt service becomes due and payable; the reserve fund to establish and maintain the required reserve; any other fund or account required by any supplemental resolution authorizing the issuance of parity obligations; and any fund or account or to any payee having a lien on pledged revenues subordinate to the lien created on behalf of the parity obligations. Any pledged revenues remaining after satisfying the foregoing payments may be appropriated and used for any other lawful purpose.

This rating assignment reflects, narrow coverage levels while considering the growing sales tax base along with the anticipation that this growth will continue for the foreseeable future. This issue is expected to be insured and will carry the insurer's current financial strength rating upon Moody's review and approval of the insurance policy and other relevant documentation. Also Moody's has affirmed the A3 rating on the Southlake Park Development Corporation Sales Tax Senior Lien Revenue Bonds, Series 1997 and 1999. Southlake's general obligation rating is Al. SPDC approved a half -percent sales tax in November 1993 and began full year collections in 1995. Over the five-year time period from fiscal 1996 to 2000 sales tax growth has averaged over 25%. This growth has occurred as Southlake's development has included a notable increase in the amount of retail establishments located in the city. Moody's believes that this trend will continue as city officials have indicated that future development efforts are targeted at commercial retail projects like the mixed use Town Square project as well as other retail developments like Gateway Plaza. These bonds will be secured by a half -percent sales and use tax, which is dedicated to the capital improvements of park facilities in the city of Southlake. Prior debt issuance included two Senior Lien debt issues that were sold in 1997 and 1999 for a total of approximately $14 million along with a $4.18 million junior lien issue sold in early 2000. City officials have indicated that the proceeds from this issue will be used primarily for major capital improvements to an existing park. SPDC's capital plan anticipates the issuance of additional junior lien debt for $5.8 million in fiscal 2003 with future debt issuance to be calibrated by the growth in SPDC's sales tax revenue. SPDC's debt position remains high with narrow coverage. Calculations for the most recent fiscal year reflect that SPDC's pledged revenues provided 1.22 times coverage of projected Maximum Annual Debt service. This coverage level is below the Senior Lien additional bonds test limitation of 1.40 Maximum Annual Debt service and the weaker Junior Lien additional bonds test of 1.25 times for the combined junior and senior lien debt. However, the tax collections for the 12 month period ending February 2001 yields total collections of $2.03 million and a maximum annual debt service coverage of 1.7x and 1.55x for the Senior and Junior Lien SOUTH -LAKE PARKS DEVELOPMENT $4,6905000 SALES TAX SUBORDINATE LIEN REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 2001 SUMMARY OF BOND INSURANCE BIDS "AAA" INSURANCE COa:IPAN'IES Ambac Indemnity Corporation BOND INSURANCE PREMIUM (% OF TOTAL PRINCIPAL & INTEREST) - 75 Basis Points SURETY BOND $22,700 i00Z/1/9 OOOZ/1/S 6661/i/9 866UUS L661/1/9 9661/i/S 9661/i/9 b661/1/S £661/i/S Z66I/1/9 1661/i/S 0661/i/9 6861/i/S 8861/i/9 L8611119 9861/i/S 9861/i/9 b861/i/S £861/i/S Z861/1/S o 0 0 0 0 o a o 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 �D N O oo N O FIRST SOUTHWEST COMPANY "Bond Buyer's" Index of 25 Revenue Bonds Basis Valuation of Par Bonds E kaw t t The most important guide as to what the Municipal Revenue Bond Market has done in one time period versus another is the "Bond Buyer's" 25 Revenue Bond Index.
