11/19/2014 PAGE(S): 1 of 18

Reference: Chapter 2256 Government Code, Public Funds Investment Act of the State of Texas

(the “Act”).

1. POLICY

To invest public funds in a manner which will provide the maximum security for the

investment portfolio, while working to yield the highest reasonable investment return and

meeting the daily cash flow demands of the San Antonio River Authority (River Authority)

and conforming to all state and local statutes governing the investment of funds.

2. SCOPE

Except for its employee retirement system fund and the Deferred Compensation Fund,

organized and administered separately by a third party custodian and/or money manager,

this investment policy applies to all financial assets of the River Authority. These funds

are accounted for in the River Authority Comprehensive Annual Financial Report and

include:

General Fund

Special Revenue Funds

Capital Project Funds

Enterprise Funds

Agency Funds

Debt Service Funds

Any new fund created by the Board, unless specifically exempted.

fund.

3. OBJECTIVES

The primary objectives, in priority order, of the River Authority investment activities shall

be:

a. Safety

Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment of funds.

Investments shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation

of capital in the overall portfolio. The objective will be to mitigate credit risk and

interest rate risk.

i. Credit Risk

Credit Risk is the risk of loss due to the failure of the security issuer or

backer. Credit risk can be managed by:

Limiting investments to the highest credit quality securities;

Pre-qualifying the financial institutions, broker/dealers,

intermediaries, and advisors with which the River Authority

will do business; and

Diversifying the investment portfolio so that potential losses

on individual securities will be minimized and to spread risk.

ii. Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the market value of securities in the portfolio

will fall due to changes in general interest rates. Interest rate risk can be

managed by:

Structuring the investment portfolio so that securities mature

to meet cash requirements for ongoing operations, thereby

avoiding the need to sell securities on the open market prior

to maturity, and

By investing operating funds primarily in shorter-term

securities.

b. Liquidity

The investment portfolio shall remain sufficiently liquid to meet all operating

requirements that may be reasonably anticipated. This is accomplished by

structuring the portfolio so that securities mature concurrent with cash needs to

meet anticipated demands and maintaining a liquidity buffer. Furthermore, since

all possible cash demands cannot be anticipated, the portfolio should consist largely

of securities with active secondary or resale markets.

Deleted: mitigated

Deleted: safest types of

Deleted: mitigated

DRAFT


c. Yield

The investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market

yield throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the

investment risk constraints and liquidity needs. Yield on investment is of least

importance compared to the safety and liquidity objectives described above. The

core of investments is limited to relatively low risk securities in anticipation of

earning a fair yield relative to the risk being assumed. Securities shall not be sold

prior to maturity with the following exceptions:

a declining credit security could be sold early to minimize loss of

principal;

a security swap would improve the quality, yield, or target duration

in the portfolio; or

liquidity needs of the portfolio require that the security be sold.

4. STANDARDS OF CARE

a. Ethics and Conflicts of Interest

Investment officers and employees involved in the investment process shall refrain

from personal business activity that could conflict with the proper execution and

management of the investment program, or could impair their ability to make

impartial decisions. Employees and investment officials shall disclose any material

interests in financial institutions with which they conduct investment business.

They shall further disclose any personal financial/investment positions that could

be related to the performance of the investment portfolio. Employees and

investment officers shall refrain from undertaking personal investment transactions

with the same individual with whom business is conducted on behalf of the River

Authority. The investment officers shall disclose all conflicts to the Board. .

If the investment officer of the River Authority has a personal business relationship,

i.c. is related within the second degree by affinity or consanguinity, as determined

under Chapter 573, to an individual seeking to sell an investment to the River

Authority, the officer shall file a statement disclosing that relationship with the

Texas Ethics Commission and the River Authority Board of Directors. The

investment officer has a personal business relationship with a business organization

if:

the investment officer(s) owns ten percent or more of the voting stock or

shares of the business organization or owns $5,000 or more of the fair

market value of the business organization;

funds received by the investment officer(s) from the business organization

exceeds ten percent of the investment officer’s gross income from the

previous year; or

the investment officer(s) has acquired from the business organization during

the previous year, investments with a book value of $2,500 or more for the

personal account of the investment officer(s).

b. Delegation of Authority

Under the direction of the General Manager, authority to manage the investment of

funds is granted to the Budget Services Manager, Controller and the Director of

Support Services, who are the investment officers. The Authority may also contract

with an SEC-registered Investment Adviser for non-discretionary management of

the funds. The Director of Support Services shall be designated as the Investment

Officer for the Authority. The General Manager, Assistant Manager or Treasurer

of the Board shall review all purchases and sales of investments made by the

investment officer or adviser. The Director of Support Services, the Budget

Services Manager, the Controller and Investment Adviser shall carry out

established written procedures and internal controls for the operation of the

investment of funds consistent with this investment policy. Unless otherwise

authorized by law, a person may not deposit, withdraw, invest, transfer, or manage

in any other manner, funds of the River Authority’s investment portfolio without

express written authority of the Board of Directors, General Manager, Director of

Support Services, Controller or Budget Services Manager, consistent with the

investment policy adopted by the Board.

Authority that is granted to the Financial Services Manager, Controller and the

Director of Support Services to deposit, withdraw, invest, transfer, or manage the

River Authority’s funds is effective until rescinded by the Board or until

termination of the person's employment. Procedures should include references to

safekeeping, delivery vs. payment, investment collateral/depository agreements

and banking services contracts. No person may engage in an investment transaction

except as provided under the terms of this policy and the procedures established by

the Board of Directors.

The designated investment officer(s) shall attend at least one training session

relating to the investment officer’s responsibilities, as required, within 12 months

after taking office or assuming responsibilities. The investment officer(s) shall

attend an investment training session not less than once in a two-fiscal year period

and receive not less than 10 hours of instruction relating to investment

responsibilities, as required, from an independent source.

c. Prudence

The standard of prudence to be used by investment officer(s) and Investment

Adviser shall be the “prudent person” standard and shall be applied in the context

of managing the overall portfolio. Investment officers acting in accordance with

written procedures and this investment policy and exercising due diligence shall be

relieved of personal liability for an individual security’s credit risk or market price

changes, provided deviations from expectations are reported in a timely fashion and

the liquidity and the sale of securities are carried out in accordance with the terms

of this policy.

Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then

prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the

management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment,

considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be

derived.

5. AUTHORIZED FINANCIAL DEALERS AND INSTITUTIONS

A list approved by the River Authority Board or Fiscal Committee will be

maintained of broker/dealers and financial institutions authorized to sell securities

to the Authority. The Board shall annually adopt the list of qualified broker/dealers

authorized to engage in investment transactions. These may include "primary"

dealers, regional dealers or brokers that qualify under Securities and Exchange

Commission Rule 15C3-1 (uniform net capital rule).

All broker/dealers and financial institutions who desire to be a certified counter-

party for investment transactions must supply the following as appropriate:

audited financial statements;

proof of Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA)

certification (as applicable);

proof of state registration;

completed broker/dealer questionnaire; and

certification of having received and thoroughly reviewed the River

Authority’s investment policy.

A current audited financial statement is required to be on file for each financial

institution and broker/dealer in which the River Authority invests.

6.. INTERNAL CONTROLS

The Director of Support Services is responsible for establishing and maintaining an

internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the River Authority

are protected from loss, theft or misuse. The internal control structure shall be

designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met. The

concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of control should not

exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits

requires estimates and judgments by management. The Investment Officer will

perform an internal compliance audit of the procedures annually to assure

compliance with the Act and this Investment Policy

An external auditor will perform an annual independent review to assure

compliance with policies and procedures. As part of the scope of the River

Authority’s annual audit, all internal controls on investments, safekeeping

procedures and investment procedures performance will be presented to the Fiscal

Committee by the Auditor. The internal controls shall address the following points:

a. Control of collusion

Collusion is a situation where two or more employees are working in

conjunction to defraud their employer.

b. Separation of transaction authority and action from accounting and record

keeping.

By separating the person who authorizes or performs the transaction from

the people who record or otherwise account for the transaction, a separation

of duties is achieved.

c. Custody and Safekeeping

Securities purchased by the Authority shall be settled delivery versus

payment into the River Authority’s designated depository bank.

Collateral pledged to the Authority for time and demand deposits in any

financial institution shall be held in an independent third-party institution

approved by the Authority.

d. Clear delegation of authority to subordinate staff members

Subordinate staff members must have a clear understanding of their

authority and responsibilities to avoid improper actions. Clear delegation

of authority also preserves the internal control structure that is contingent

on the various staff positions and their respective responsibilities.

e. Written confirmation on all transactions for investments and wire transfers

Due to the potential for error and improprieties all transactions should be

supported by written documentation and approved by the appropriate

independent person. Written communications may be via fax or email if on

letterhead and the safekeeping institution has a list of authorized signatures.

f. Delivery vs. Payment

All security trades will be executed by delivery vs. payment (DVP). This

ensures that securities are deposited in the Authority’s financial institution

evidenced by safekeeping receipts provided to the River Authority.

g. Monitoring Credit Ratings

The Investment Officer or Investment Aviser shall monitor, on no less than

a monthly basis, the credit rating on all authorized investments in the

portfolio based upon independent information from a nationally recognized

rating agency. If any security falls below the minimum rating required by

this Policy, the Investment Officer or adviser shall notify the General

Manager of the loss of rating, conditions affecting the rating and possible

loss of principal with liquidation options available, within three business

days after learning of the loss of the required rating.

h. Monitoring FDIC Status

The Investment Officer or Investment Adviser shall monitor, on no less than

a weekly basis, the status and ownership of all banks whose brokered

CDs are owned by the Authority based upon information from the FDIC.

If any bank has been acquired or merged with another bank in which

brokered CDs are owned, the Investment Officer or Investment Adviser

shall immediately liquidate any brokered CD which places the Authority

above the FDIC insurance level.

i. Competitive Bidding

All security transactions will be made on a competitive basis to assure the

Authority is receiving accurate market rates. When-issued securities shall

be compared to other securities available in the secondary market.

j. Un-authorized Investment

Should amendments be made to State Law or River Authority policy, the

River Authority will not be required to liquidate currently held investments

that were authorized investments at the time of purchase. At maturity or

liquidation, such monies shall be reinvested only as provided by this policy.

7. SUITABLE AND AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS

11. INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The River Authority operates with a pooled investment strategy recognizing the needs of the

portfolio and using generally a buy-and-hold strategy. In no case will the dollar-weighted average

maturity of the portfolio exceed one (1) year. The maximum final stated maturity of any

investment shall not exceed three years.

OVERVIEW OF 84th LEGISLATIVE AGENDA

In preparation for the 84th Texas Legislative Session, the San Antonio River Authority (River

Authority) identified thirty-three major legislative initiatives for the staff to track and support or

oppose over the next regular session. In addition to the specific items listed, staff will monitor

and track any legislation that may impact the River Authority’s elections, taxing authority and

general operations. The River Authority staff will also monitor water-related legislation

pertaining to our four-county district and, as these issues arise, positions will be developed and

presented.

The River Authority’s Legislative Agenda for the 84th Texas Legislative Session includes thirty-

three issues, placing them in the following categories; Items to Initiate, Items to Support, Items

to Monitor and Items to Oppose. Staff will present the issues and position statements to the River

Authority Board of Director’s Executive Committee on October 8, 2014. The Committee will

review the issues, identify the priorities and revise the statements to better reflect the position of

the River Authority.

The River Authority’s Intergovernmental and Community Relations Department (IGCR)

coordinates the legislative agenda. During the session, IGCR staff will work with members of the

Legislature, committee staff, professional organizations and the River Authority’s lobby team to

convey and obtain feedback regarding the River Authority’s legislative positions and on

individual bills under consideration. Reports tracking the status and progress of priority issues

and legislation will be presented regularly at the River Authority’s monthly Board of Directors

Executive Committee meetings.

This report contains a summary of the staff legislative recommendations followed by a more

detailed explanation of each recommendation. For more information on the River Authority’s

Legislative Agenda, please contact Brian Mast, Intergovernmental Relations Specialist, at (210)

302-3287 or Julia Velez at (210) 302-3641.

DRAFT


6

Items to Initiate

At present there are no items to recommend; however, as issues develop staff may shift items

into this category.

Items to Support

Clean Rivers Program (CRP)

In the 82nd Legislature, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and other

state agencies were asked to identify how they would implement a ten percent reduction in

funding. Based upon the 82nd Legislature budget negotiations and TCEQ management decisions,

the Clean Rivers Program realized a ten percent funding reduction in FY 2012 and FY 2013.

In recent meetings with TCEQ, the River Authority learned how the TCEQ will distribute the ten

percent funding cut realized in the last budget. The CRP historic budget was $10,000,000 per

biennium. From the CRP legislation, TCEQ utilized ten percent ($1,000,000) of those funds for

administering the program, which left $9,000,000 for partner contracts.

For the FY 2014-2015 biennium, the CRP is to operate with a ten percent ($1,000,000) budget

reduction, which leaves $9,000,000 for the entire program. For the FY 2014-2015 biennium, the

TCEQ is proposing to reduce the operating budget for administering the program by 50 percent.

This would require $250,000/FY with a total budget of $500,000. This left $8,500,000 budget

for the CRP partner contracts. TCEQ also implemented, per the request of program partners,

including SARA, the same percent budget reduction apply to all project partners.

For the FY 2016-17 biennium, the CRP cooperating partners are seeking to bring the CRP

program funding back to historical levels and push to account for inflation over the past twenty-

three years. The labor and equipment costs for supporting the CRP have risen since the

program’s inception but there has never been a budget increase to mitigate these real costs of

conducting the monitoring program.

Staff recommends supporting funding efforts that, at a minimum, increase the CRP funding to its

historical levels.

Elimination of Sporting Goods Sales Tax Diversions

When the Sporting Goods Sales Tax was implemented the generated revenue was to be dedicated

to operating and maintaining Texas’ State, regional and local parks. Since the revenue was not

constitutionally dedicated to the maintenance of Texas’ parks the legislature has utilized the

majority of this revenue to balance other areas of the State budget. Over the past couple of

sessions the legislature has sought to curtail or eliminate the diversion of legislatively dedicated

revenue.

Staff recommends supporting legislation that will eliminate the diversion of the Sporting Goods

Sales Tax for purposes other than the original legislative intent.

DRAFT


7

Environmental Flows Adaptive Management Funding

The Texas Legislature passed environmental flow provisions in the Texas Water Code with

Senate Bill 3, Article I 80(R). In recognition of the importance that the ecological soundness of

our riverine, bay, and estuary systems and riparian lands has on the economy, health and well-

being of our state, the 80th Texas Legislature created the Environmental Flows Advisory Group.

Senate Bill 3 provides for adaptive management strategies as better science is developed,

acknowledges the uniqueness of each river basin, and establishes regional bay and basin

stakeholder groups and expert science teams to recommend environmental flow levels needed for

the bay and basins to maintain the essential balance between human needs and environmental

needs. The River Authority firmly believes the state needs to develop statewide consistency and

coordination to environmental flow studies and methodologies for our rivers, streams, bays and

estuaries as laid out in Senate Bill 3, Article 1.

The Science Advisory Committee serves as an objective scientific body to advise and make

recommendations to the Environmental Flows Advisory Group on issues relating to the science

of environmental flows and the development of environmental flows standards. The Science

Advisory Committee developed recommendations on clarifying the adaptive management phase

of the program and funding the scientific studies identified in the Work Plans for Adaptive

Management adopted by the stakeholder groups engaged in the SB 3 environmental flows

program.

Staff recommends supporting the Texas Water Development Board’s Legislative Appropriations

Request (LAR) for $2M for environmental flows studies. Staff also recommends supporting

legislation that would further clarify the adaptive management phase of the SB 3 Environmental

Flows Program.

Illegal Dumping

Illegal dumping continues to be an issue in the San Antonio River Watershed. In the first half of

2014 alone the River Authority’s Watershed Park Operations Department has collected and

disposed of over forty-four tons of trash following rain events. The River Authority continues to

sponsor household hazardous waste collection events in the southern basin which aids in

removing paints, acids, tires, electronic waste and unused or unwanted pharmaceuticals from the

environment.

Staff recommends supporting legislation that would assist local communities in fighting illegal

dumping.

State Environmental Water Policy

The River Authority believes the State of Texas would benefit from the creation of a unified

State Environmental Water Policy that would provide clear direction to the State’s natural

resource agencies. Presently, there is not a unified approach to water issues amongst the state

agencies which occasionally leads to policy decisions pitting agencies on different sides of an

issue. Having a State Environmental Water Policy would also provide local project sponsors

some assurances that when requesting federal support for a project the state agencies will be

more likely to communicate a unified coherent message of support or otherwise.

Staff recommends supporting legislation that would initiate the discussion on the creation of a

State Environmental Water Policy.

DRAFT


8

State Feral Hog Program

Feral hogs are unprotected, exotic, non-game animals. Therefore, they may be taken by any

means or methods at any time of year. There are no seasons or bag limits, however a hunting

license and landowner permission are required to hunt them.

Feral hogs are distributed throughout much of Texas, generally inhabiting the white-tailed deer

range, with the highest population densities occurring in East, South and Central Texas. North

and West Texas have very low or no populations. However, reports indicate that populations are

beginning to expand and increase in these areas. There is currently an estimated population in

excess of 1.5 million feral hogs in Texas.1 It is estimated to keep the population at its current

level a locality would have to remove 70% of the population annually to maintain the current

population and distribution. In the San Antonio River Basin feral hogs are contributing to stream

and river bank erosion and bacteria issues along the main stem and tributaries of the San Antonio

River.

In the 81st Legislature HB 716 was passed which permitted hunting by helicopter to remove feral

hogs from lands. Staff recommends supporting any legislation that seeks to create and fund a

feral hog population control program.

State Implementation of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)

SB 1436 80(R) transferred the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) from the TCEQ to the

TWDB. The River Authority supported the Texas Floodplain Management Association (TFMA)

by drafting and submitting a letter supporting additional funding for the TWDB’s administration

of the NFIP. In particular, the Regional Coordinating

Staff recommends supporting legislation which identifies further funding, efficiencies and

effectiveness of the State’s NFIP program.

State Pharmaceutical Take-Back Program

The River Authority conducts pharmaceutical take back events 5 times a year in the southern

basin and partners with SAWS to promote MedDrop events in San Antonio. Outside of these

planned one-day events there are very limited avenues for residents to appropriately discard

unused or unwanted medications. A statewide pharmaceutical take-back program can be

developed based on the television take-back program developed by SB 329 in the 82nd

Legislature that established “a comprehensive, convenient, and environmentally sound program

for the collection and recycling of television equipment,” that is “based on individual television

manufacturer responsibility and shared responsibility among consumers, retailers and the

government of this state.”2

Staff recommends supporting legislation which creates a statewide pharmaceutical take-back

program to protect the waters of the state and drinking water resources.

Stormwater Runoff Reduction

The River Authority recommends legislation that would require zero stormwater runoff for the

first half inch of rain for new development construction. Legislation could phase in the

stormwater reduction over time (ex. quarter inch by 2015 and half inch by 2018).

Tire Recycling

The River Authority has witnessed more used tires being illegally dumped within our basin. This

issue has been previously discussed with the Bexar Regional Watershed Management Committee

of Seven (BRWM C7). Senator Uresti introduced a tire recycling bill for Maverick County in

the 81st Legislature which may serve as a model for a local bill should the River Authority and /

or Bexar County are interested in a local solution. If the River Authority and / or Bexar County

are interested in pursuing a local bill that implements a tire recycling fee or tire recycling

program, the Senator would be a potential bill sponsor.

Staff recommends supporting legislation that would address tire recycling through either a

statewide or local initiative.

Items to Monitor

Constituents of Emerging Concern: Mercury, Arsenic and Pharmaceuticals

During the 81st Legislature’s interim the Senate Natural Resources Committee assessed issues

concerning mercury and arsenic emissions to identify the sources of mercury and arsenic

pollution in water. The Committee also investigated the status of drinking water, reservoir, river,

estuary, and fish and wildlife mercury and arsenic monitoring programs in Texas.

“Constituents of Emerging Concern" can be broadly defined as any synthetic or naturally

occurring chemical or any microorganism that is not commonly monitored in the environment

but has the potential to enter the environment and cause known or suspected adverse ecological

and/or human health effects.

A study of 139 streams throughout the country detected 82 chemicals in 80 percent of the

waterways tested in 1999-2000, according to the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) Toxic

Substances Hydrology Program. The most common chemicals were steroids (anti-inflammatory

drugs), antibiotics, nonprescription drugs, caffeine and insect repellent.

Potential water quality contaminants are flushed into ground and surface water from a variety of

sources. The most common are wastewater from sewage treatment plants; run-off from

agricultural land uses, particularly from industrial scale livestock facilities; and discharge from

individual septic systems. Conventional sewage treatment varies greatly in its ability to eliminate

drug or personal care product residues.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to the interim charge and/or other water monitoring

issues and may move this item to the “support” category, particularly if legislation is filed to

fund further water monitoring programs.

*Emerging Contaminant information comes from USGS and the Water Systems Council.

DRAFT


10

County Zoning Authority

Bexar and other urban counties have sought the authority to regulate land development in the

unincorporated areas of their jurisdiction over the course of the last several sessions. The bills

typically require a local option election that would allow the registered voters of the county to

approve or deny the county the zoning authority.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to this issue and may move this item to the “support” or

“oppose” category depending on the nature and scope of the legislation.

Dam Safety Issues

During the 82nd Legislature House Bill 2694 exempted certain dams located on private property

from meeting dam safety requirements. This exemption was due to expire on August 31, 2015,

however the 83rd Legislature passed HB 677 which repealed the exemption expiration thereby

eliminating the TCEQ’s dam safety inspections of certain privately owned dams. Additionally,

HB 677 further extended the dam safety exemption for dams on private property in counties with

populations less than 350,000. Previously the exemption was only extended to dams on private

property in counties with populations less than 215,000. For this reason dam safety issues may

be addressed again in the 84th Legislature.

TCEQ has considered implementing new fees to fund the Dam Safety Program. Two fees have

been discussed: a Dam Inspection Fee and an Annual Dam Registration Fee. The funds raised by

the proposed fees would support the Dam Safety Program; however, the fee amounts and how

they would support the program have yet to be disclosed.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to these issues and may move this item to either the

“support” or “oppose” category depending upon the scope of additional safety inspection

exemptions, the impact of any newly proposed fees on the River Authority and how the newly

generated funds will specifically support the Dam Safety Program.

Desalination Issues

During the interim session, the Senate Natural Resources Committee evaluated the progress of

the state's goal of promoting desalination projects across the state (brackish and seawater),

including their future expansion to assist in meeting the state's water needs. Similarly the House

Natural Resources Committee evaluated the status of desalination projects in Texas, including an

evaluation of the regulation of brackish groundwater and whether opportunities exist to facilitate

better utilization of this groundwater to meet future needs.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to these interim charges and may move this item to the

“support” category, particularly if legislation is filed to fund desalination research and projects.

Edwards Aquifer Issues

Staff recommends monitoring any legislation that may impact the management of the Edwards

Aquifer including, but not limited to, the reuse of Edwards Aquifer derived effluent.

DRAFT


11

Eminent Domain

As a result of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Kelo vs. City of New London, which affirmed

the right of some governments to exercise the power of eminent domain for economic

development purposes, many state Legislatures such as Texas passed new laws to clarify how

some governments can exercise the power of eminent domain for economic development

purposes. In the 82nd session Senate Bill (SB) 18 was passed as a comprehensive eminent

domain reform bill. It is possible that the Legislature may revisit this issue.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to this issue and may move this item to the “oppose”

category, particularly if additional legislation limits or prohibits the use of eminent domain for

the types of infrastructure that the River Authority and other water agencies implement.

Endangered Species Issues

The whooping crane litigation remains under appeal and could be appealed to the Supreme

Court. The legislature could choose to identify a state solution to this endangered species issue

however it is unlikely to act with litigation pending. Staff is presently unaware of any draft

legislation regarding the whooping crane issue or any other legislation pertaining to endangered

species in general.

The Texas Comptroller’s office has been charged with tracking the economic impact of federal

action on endangered species through the Interagency Task Force on Economic Growth and

Endangered Species. The task force provides policy and technical assistance to local and regional

governmental entities and communities engaged in economic development activities. Presently,

SARA staff monitors the activities of the task force and will continue to do so in through the

session.

Staff will monitor this issue closely and may move this item to the “support” or “oppose”

category depending on the legislation.

Environmental Flows Adaptive Management Clarification

The Texas Legislature passed environmental flow provisions in the Texas Water Code with

Senate Bill 3, Article I 80(R). In recognition of the importance that the ecological soundness of

our riverine, bay, and estuary systems and riparian lands has on the economy, health and well-

being of our state, the 80th Texas Legislature created the Environmental Flows Advisory Group.

Senate Bill 3 provides for adaptive management strategies as better science is developed,

acknowledges the uniqueness of each river basin, and establishes regional bay and basin

stakeholder groups and expert science teams to recommend environmental flow levels needed for

the bay and basins to maintain the essential balance between human needs and environmental

needs. The River Authority firmly believes the state needs to develop statewide consistency and

coordination to environmental flow studies and methodologies for our rivers, streams, bays and

estuaries as laid out in Senate Bill 3, Article 1.

The Science Advisory Committee serves as an objective scientific body to advise and make

recommendations to the Environmental Flows Advisory Group on issues relating to the science

of environmental flows and the development of environmental flows standards. The Science

Advisory Committee developed recommendations on clarifying the adaptive management phase

of the program and funding the scientific studies identified in the Work Plans for Adaptive

DRAFT

Management adopted by the stakeholder groups engaged in the SB 3 environmental flows

program.

Staff will monitor this issue closely and may move this item to the “support” or “oppose”

category depending on the legislation.

Groundwater Management Issues

The House and Senate Natural Resources Committees had interim charges to make

recommendations on the management of groundwater resources.

The Committees’ interim report should include an assessment of the following:

Evaluate the availability, management, and development of groundwater in the state.

Consider the economic, environmental, and social impacts of groundwater usage and

production in the agricultural, municipal, and energy sectors. In particular, examine

methods to facilitate further development of brackish groundwater resources and to

improve the consistency and certainty of permitting by groundwater districts without

undercutting reasonable regional and local regulation of groundwater; and

Study and make recommendations to encourage the use of brackish water including

but not limited to Aquifer Storage and Recovery and Desalination.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to this interim charge.

Litter and Trash Reduction Programs

General litter and trash issues impact the health and quality of life in the San Antonio River

Watershed as well as impact the River Authority’s annual budget. The River Authority

encourages basin residents to use reusable shopping bags whenever they shop through education

outreach activities and through reusable bag give-aways. In each of the last three Legislatures,

several bills have been filed that aimed at reducing the use of single use plastic bags. While these

bills aimed at reducing pollution they only targeted one item of a much larger general waste

stream that includes plastic bottles, Styrofoam, glass and paper containers.

Staff monitor any legislation related to these issues and may move this item to the “support” or

“oppose” category, depending on the nature and scope of the legislation.

Municipal Tree Ordinances

Staff will monitor any legislation related to this issue particularly with regards to bills seeking to

strike existing tree ordinances. Staff may move this to the “oppose” category particularly if the

City of San Antonio’s tree ordinance is targeted.

Oil, Gas and Mineral Exploration

SARA supports the continued economic growth brought by the Eagle Ford Shale, yet we

recognize that sustainable practices can balance cost without compromising the health of the

rivers and creeks within the San Antonio River Watershed. SARA seeks to focus on practices

that preserve and enhance water quality, land use practices that preserve natural watershed

functions to manage the quantity and quality of stormwater runoff, road infrastructure and

floodplain land use and development issues that frequently accompany rapid growth associated

with successful oil and gas exploration.

DRAFT


13

Staff will monitor legislation that pertains to oil, gas and mineral exploration to determine if such

bills will assist the communities in the San Antonio River Watershed with the rapid growth,

transportation, economic development and natural resource issues they are experiencing.

Procurement Process

House Bill (HB) 1886 80(R), Design Build and Alternative Project Delivery, made a number of

positive changes in construction project delivery procedures. The bill expanded the use of

competitive sealed proposals and construction management at risk into infrastructure markets.

Included in the bill are design-build for roads, water facilities and other civil works projects. The

River Authority supported this bill in the 80th session and its passage provides the River

Authority with greater flexibility with regards to procurement activities. Senate Bill (SB) 229

81(R), further expanded the use of Design Build and Alternative Project Delivery to

governmental bodies serving populations of 100,000 or more people.

The House Committee on Government Efficiency and Reform has also studied the utilization of

alternative project delivery methods, such as design-build and construction-manager-at-risk, by

municipalities, water districts, and authorities, and other local governmental entities since the

passage of HB 1886, 80th Legislature during the interim.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to these interim charges and may move this item to the

“support” or “oppose” category, depending on the scope and nature of the legislation.

Property Appraisals and Revenue Caps

In past interim sessions the House Committee on Land and Resource Management has examined

the body of law to determine the amount of compensation property owners receive when their

land is condemned, in whole or in part, and studied the appropriateness of Texas’ compensation

scheme as compared to others.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to this issue and may shift this issue to the “oppose”

category, particularly if legislation would imbalance the compensation equation

disproportionately towards property owners.

Regional Water Quality Standards

In the 80th interim session the Senate Natural Resources Committee studied the need for regional

water quality standards, particularly in the Edwards and Barton Springs recharge zones.


Reuse and Wastewater Return Flows

Reuse (treated wastewater return flows) is an important conservation and water management

strategy. It is a key component to meeting the needs of manufacturing, irrigation, municipal and

potentially environmental flow demands. The State Water Plan identifies an increase in the

usage of reuse over the 50-year planning horizon from three percent in 2000 to seven percent in

2050. Reuse reduces the need for costly investment in the development of new surface or

groundwater supplies. Reuse water is also critical to supporting environmental needs,

DRAFT


14

particularly base instream flows and freshwater inflows to bays and estuaries. Many years ago

the San Antonio River relied on the spring flows from San Antonio and San Pedro Springs;

however, increased pumping from the Edwards Aquifer resulted in minimal or intermittent

spring flow. In spite of this, the river still flows, but relies on a spring flow surrogate—treated

wastewater return flows. Downstream water needs on the San Antonio River are also currently

being met by treated wastewater return flows. Wastewater return flows are critical for managing

our river’s environmental ecosystem and supporting the health of San Antonio Bay.

Staff supports a state policy that links environmental flows and the use of wastewater return

flows (reuse) that will provide adequate protections for downstream flows for the environment.

An ideal state policy will allow for a basin by basin or regional approach to the reuse issue rather

than a one size fits all statewide solution.


Review of State-Created River Authorities

In the 81st Legislature the Senate Natural Resources Committee reviewed the advisability of

subjecting river authorities to Sunset Committee review. The Committee considered options for

ensuring adequate protection of public assets, improving transparency of operations, enhancing

appropriate access to financial and management records, and authorizing audits by the State

Auditor’s office.

House Bill 2362 from the 83rd Legislature required the Lower Colorado River Authority and

Brazos River Authority to be subject to an efficiency review by the Legislative Budget Board.

The Board may “review and analyze the effectiveness and efficiency of the policies,

management, fiscal affairs, and operations of a river authority,” and present the findings to the

governor and legislature.

Additionally, the Senate Natural Resources Committee was given an interim charge to study “the

current accountability of river authorities to the legislature and the customers served by the

authorities along with their transparency to members of the public. Make recommendations for

improvements if necessary. Investigate the role of river authorities in the regional water planning

process and the implementation of projects in the state water plan. Receive an update on any

ongoing audits of river authorities from the State Auditor's Office and the Legislative Budget

Board as well as any future planned audits and schedules.”

The River Authority is one of two river authorities in Texas that has an elected Board. Since the

River Authority has an elected board there is built in electorate oversight that allows for public

oversight and ensures agency transparency.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to this issue and will move this item to the “oppose”

category if the River Authority is negatively impacted.

State Water Planning / Funding

The development of the State Water Plan has made the State of Texas a national leader in the

area of water planning. However, until the 83rd Legislature Texas had not identified a method

for funding the plan’s implementation. The 83rd Legislature passed S.J.R. 1, together with H.B. 4

and H.B. 1025, which sought to fund the implementation of the State Water Plan by creating the

State Water Implementation Fund for Texas and the State Water Implementation Revenue Fund

DRAFT


15

for Texas to provide support for financial assistance provided by the Texas Water Development

Board for projects included in the state water plan and by capitalizing the State Water

Implementation Fund for Texas with constitutionally dedicated money appropriated out of the

economic stabilization fund. On November 5, 2013, Texas voters elected to amend the Texas

Constitution and dedicate $2 billion from the economic stabilization fund for the implementation

of the State Water Plan.

Amendments to State Water Planning and Funding mechanisms have occurred in each of the last

two sessions and now that State funding has been made available there could be additional

changes to the planning process.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to the State Water Planning process.

Tax Increment Financing (TIF)

In the past the River Authority encountered opposition when appointing a staff member to serve

on a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Board of Directors.§ 311.0091 of the Tax Code stipulates

that to be eligible for appointment to a TIF Board of a reinvestment zone, a person must be a

qualified voter of the municipality that designated the zone; or be at least 18 years of age and

own real property in the zone or be an employee or agent of a person that owns real property in

the zone. House Bill (HB) 2853 82 (R) amended the tax code to provide:

Except as provided by Subsection (i), to [To] be eligible for appointment to the board, an

individual must:

(1) be a qualified voter of the municipality; or

(2) be at least 18 years of age and own real property in the zone or be an employee or agent of a

person that owns real property in the zone.

(i) The eligibility criteria for appointment to the board specified by Subsection (f) do

not apply to an individual appointed by a conservation and reclamation district:

(1) created under Section 59, Article XVI, Texas Constitution; and

(2) the jurisdiction of which covers four counties.

It has been the River Authority’s policy to name an experienced and knowledgeable staff

member to TIF Boards in order to best represent the River Authority’s interests on said Boards.

Staff will monitor TIF legislation to ensure the flexibility provided to SARA by HB 2853 does

not get impaired.

Texas Bottle Bill – Beverage Container Deposit Bill

In each of the last several sessions a bottle bill has been introduced seeking to implement a

deposit program for glass and plastic bottles.

Staff will monitor any legislation related to this issue and may move this item to the “support” or

“oppose” category, depending on the scope and nature of the legislation.

Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Matching Grant Programs

With the continued and perhaps expanded reductions in state agency budgets, the defense needs

to be strong to preserve the funding for the matching grant programs administered by TPWD.

Parks are proven to be solid and sound investments that return monies to communities through

DRAFT


16

offsetting or preventing health and wellness issues, economic development, increased property

values, and lower crime rates. The matching grant programs stimulate local governments to take

on the responsibility for park improvements and expansions. As the population of Texas grows,

the State should continue to help stimulate local governments to meet the needs of existing and

future Texans.

Staff will monitor any legislation and budgetary issues related to this issue.

Items to Oppose

Unfunded Mandates

Staff will recommend opposing legislation that would result in additional unfunded state

mandates.

APPLICATION FEE AND EASEMENT CONSIDERATION REQUIREMENTS IN THE SAN

ANTONIO RIVER AUTHORITY'S REAL ESTATE POLICY

Presenter

Claude Harding

The City of Converse (City) requests a permanent easement consisting of approximately 2,196 square

feet and a temporary construction easement consisting of approximately 2,795 square feet to

accommodate a new six-foot wide concrete sidewalk on the San Antonio River Authority (SARA) land

located at the northeast corner of the Salatrillo Wastewater Treatment Plant site.

This proposed sidewalk will be used primarily by students connecting the Copperfield Subdivision to the

Judson Middle School and High School. The sidewalk will be constructed according to American

Disabilities Act standards and has been designed as an all-weather surface. Currently, pedestrians use a

worn out gravel path. This enhanced walkway will improve the mobility of students that walk this route

every school day. The new sidewalk will make the route much safer especially during bad weather.

The engineering plans and specifications have been approved by SARA's Watershed Engineering

Department. This proposed easement for a sidewalk will not disrupt operations of the plant as there is a

fence that separates the proposed easement from the plant.

SARA's Real Estate Policy requires the submittal of a land use application with an application fee of

$5,000. The City has submitted a request for an exception to this policy and requests a waiver of the land

use application fee and easement consideration.

Staff recommends that the City's request for the easement and for the waiver of the application fee and

easement consideration requirements be approved because the sidewalk project aligns with SARA's

mission and goals for safety.

At its December 8, 2014, meeting, the Operations Committee supported presentation of this item to the

Board of Directors for approval.

Recommendation

Presenter

Deborah KorinchockEstimated Presentation Time: 10 minutes

At the November 19, 2014 meeting of the San Antonio River Authority's (SARA) Board of Directors, the

Board approved proceeding with the sale of an estimated $8,125,000 in refunding bonds to refinance the

2004 Channel Improvement Bonds issued by SARA to fund a Bexar County (County) capital

improvement project. This is the last debt issuance completed by SARA on behalf of the County. The

estimated total savings from the proposed refunding is approximately $1,086,000 or 9,1% which will

occur between now and 2034. The refunding bonds (the proposed new issuance) have a final maturity in

2028 while the original bonds would have matured in 2034. The County actually funds this annual debt

service payment so the savings will accrue to our funding partner, not directly to SARA. The County

agreed to shorten the maturity to 2028 from 2034. The debt currently carries an average interest rate of

4.72%. The actual savings will depend on the parameters of the final sale.

SARA's financial advisors, Southwest Securities, Inc. will provide the Board with all the details of the

sale as well as the actual savings at the Board meeting as the sale is finalized.

Recommendation

Motion that Resolution R-1518 be approved as presented, authorizing the issuance, sale, and delivery of

approximately $8,320,000 in principal amount of San Antonio River Authority Channel Improvement

Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2015; approving the form and authorizing the execution of all

instruments and procedures related thereto including a deposit agreement, a paying agent/registrar

agreement, and a purchase and investment letter; and calling certain of the River Authority's outstanding

Channel Improvement Revenue Bonds for redemption.

SAN ANTONIO RIVER AUTHORITY CHANNEL IMPROVEMENT REVENUE REFUNDING BONDS, SERIES 2015

DATED JANUARY 1, 2015IN THE AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF $

AS BOND COUNSEL FOR THE SAN ANTONIO RIVER AUTHORITY (the "Issuer")we have examined into the legality and validity of the Bonds described above (the "Bonds"), whichbear interest from the dates and mature on the dates in accordance with the terms and conditionsstated in the text of the Bonds.

WE HAVE EXAMINED the applicable and pertinent provisions of the Constitution andlaws of the State of Texas, and a transcript of certified proceedings of the Issuer, and other pertinentinstruments authorizing and relating to the issuance of the Bonds including (i) the resolutionauthorizing the issuance of the Bonds (the "Resolution"), (ii) a Deposit Agreement, dated as ofJanuary 1, 2015, between the Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as Deposit Agent (the"Deposit Agreement"), (iii) a sufficiency certificate provided by the Issuer's financial advisor(Southwest Securities, Inc.) with respect to the adequacy of certain escrowed funds to accomplishthe refunding purposes of the Bonds (the "Sufficiency Certificate"), (iv) one of the executed Bonds(Bond No. R-1), (v) the Issuer's Federal Tax Certificate of even date herewith, and (vi) variouscertificates and documents executed by officers and officials of the Issuer upon which certificatesand documents we rely as to certain matters stated below.

IT IS OUR OPINION that the Bonds have been duly authorized, issued and delivered, allin accordance with law, and that, except as may be limited by laws relating to bankruptcy,reorganization, and other similar matters affecting creditors' rights, (i) the covenants and agreementsin the Resolution constitute valid and binding obligations of the Issuer, and the Bonds constitutevalid and legally binding special obligations of the Issuer, which, together with certain otheroutstanding bonds, are secured by and payable from a first lien on and pledge of the "Gross FloodTax Revenues" (as defined in the Resolution) derived by the Issuer from the 1999 AmendatoryContract Between Bexar County, Texas, and the San Antonio River Authority, dated as ofOctober 26, 1999 (the "Amendatory Contract"), relating to a flood control and soil conservationprogram for the San Antonio River, and (ii) the Amendatory Contract is authorized by law, has beenduly executed, is valid, and is legally binding upon and enforceable by the parties thereto inaccordance with its terms and provisions.

San Antonio River Authority Channel Improvement Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2014January 15, 2015Page 2

IT IS FURTHER OUR OPINION that the Deposit Agreement has been duly authorized,executed and delivered by the Issuer and constitutes a binding and enforceable agreement inaccordance with its terms and that the "Refunded Bonds" (as defined in the Resolution) beingrefunded by the Bonds are outstanding under the resolution authorizing their issuance only for thepurpose of receiving the funds provided by, and are secured solely by and payable solely from, theDeposit Agreement and the cash held by the Deposit Agent pursuant to the Deposit Agreement. Inrendering this opinion, we have relied upon the certifications contained in the Sufficiency Certificateas to the sufficiency of the cash deposited pursuant to the Deposit Agreement for the purpose ofpaying the principal of, redemption premium, if any, and interest on the Refunded Bonds.

THE REGISTERED OWNERS OF THE BONDS SHALL NEVER have the right todemand payment of the principal thereof or interest thereon out of any funds raised or to be raisedby taxes levied by the Issuer or any other political subdivision of the State of Texas other than BexarCounty, Texas, or from any source whatsoever other than as specified in the Resolution.

THE ISSUER HAS RESERVED THE RIGHT, subject to the restrictions stated in theResolution, to issue additional revenue bonds which also may be secured by and made payable froma first lien on and pledge of the aforesaid Gross Flood Tax Revenues on a parity with the Bonds.

THE ISSUER ALSO HAS RESERVED THE RIGHT, subject to the restrictions stated inthe Resolution, to amend the Resolution with the approval of the holders or owners of 51% of theaggregate principal amount of all outstanding parity bonds which are secured by and payable froma first lien on and pledge of the aforesaid Gross Flood Tax Revenues.

IT IS FURTHER OUR OPINION, except as discussed below, that the interest on the Bondsis excludable from the gross income of the owners for federal income tax purposes under thestatutes, regulations, published rulings, and court decisions existing on the date of this opinion. Weare further of the opinion that the Bonds are not "specified private activity bonds" and that,accordingly, interest on the Bonds will not be included as an individual or corporate alternativeminimum tax preference item under section 57(a)(5) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the"Code"). In expressing the aforementioned opinions, we have relied on certain representations, theaccuracy of which we have not independently verified, and assume compliance with certaincovenants, regarding the use and investment of the proceeds of the Bonds and the use of the propertyfinanced or refinanced therewith. We call your attention to the fact that if such representations aredetermined to be inaccurate or upon a failure by the Issuer to comply with such covenants, intereston the Bonds may become includable in gross income retroactively to the date of issuance of theBonds.

EXCEPT AS STATED ABOVE, we express no opinion as to any other federal, state or localtax consequences of acquiring, carrying, owning or disposing of the Bonds.

San Antonio River Authority Channel Improvement Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2014January 15, 2015Page 3

WE CALL YOUR ATTENTION TO THE FACT that the interest on tax-exemptobligations, such as the Bonds, is included in a corporation's alternative minimum taxable incomefor purposes of determining the alternative minimum tax imposed on corporations by section 55 ofthe Code.

WE EXPRESS NO OPINION as to any insurance policies issued with respect to thepayments due for the principal of and interest on the Bonds, nor as to any such insurance policiesissued in the future.

OUR OPINIONS ARE BASED ON EXISTING LAW, which is subject to change. Suchopinions are further based on our knowledge of facts as of the date hereof. We assume no duty toupdate or supplement our opinions to reflect any facts or circumstances that may thereafter cometo our attention or to reflect any changes in any law that may thereafter occur or become effective.Moreover, our opinions are not a guarantee of result and are not binding on the Internal RevenueService (the "Service"); rather, such opinions represent our legal judgment based upon our reviewof existing law and in reliance upon the representations and covenants referenced above that wedeem relevant to such opinions. The Service has an ongoing audit program to determine compliancewith rules that relate to whether interest on state or local obligations is includable in gross incomefor federal income tax purposes. No assurance can be given whether or not the Service willcommence an audit of the Bonds. If an audit is commenced, in accordance with its current publishedprocedures the Service is likely to treat the Issuer as the taxpayer. We observe that the Issuer hascovenanted not to take any action, or omit to take any action within its control, that if taken oromitted, respectively, may result in the treatment of interest on the Bonds as includable in grossincome for federal income tax purposes.

OUR SOLE ENGAGEMENT in connection with the issuance of the Bonds is as BondCounsel for the Issuer, and, in that capacity, we have been engaged by the Issuer for the sole purposeof rendering an opinion with respect to the legality and validity of the Bonds under the Constitutionand laws of the State of Texas, and with respect to the exclusion from gross income of the intereston the Bonds for federal income tax purposes, and for no other reason or purpose. The foregoingopinions represent our legal judgment based upon a review of existing legal authorities that we deemrelevant to render such opinions and are not a guarantee of a result. We have not been requested toinvestigate or verify, and have not independently investigated or verified any records, data, or othermaterial relating to the financial condition or capabilities of the Issuer, or the disclosure thereof inconnection with the sale of the Bonds, and have not assumed any responsibility with respect thereto.We express no opinion and make no comment with respect to the marketability of the Bonds andhave relied solely on Bonds executed by officials of the Issuer as to the current outstandingindebtedness of, and the sufficiency of the Gross Flood Tax Revenues of, the Issuer.

Respectfully,

PRESENTATION, DISCUSSION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION REGARDING RESOLUTION

R-1484 DECLARING APPROXIMATELY 15.919 ACRES OF LAND AT THE MARTINEZ IV

PROPERTY IN SAN ANTONIO, BEXAR COUNTY, TEXAS, SURPLUS AND AUTHORIZING

THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXCHANGE SUCH LAND FOR 86.524 ACRES OF LAND

LOCATED AT THE BINZ ENGELMAN DAM IN SAN ANTONIO, BEXAR COUNTY, TEXAS

Presenter

Claude Harding and Jim DoersamEstimated Presentation Time: 15 minutes

In 1960, the Alamo Soil Conservation District acquired inundation easements for the construction,

operation and maintenance of Martinez Flood Prevention Dam Number One or Binz Engelman Dam.

Later, the inundation easements were transferred to the San Antonio River Authority (SARA). SA JBDI,

Ltd., a Texas limited partnership managed by Bruce Cash, owns approximately 86.524 acres (SAJBDI

Tract) at this location and has offered to donate the fee simple estate of the land to SARA. This proposed

donation enhances SARA's position at the Binz Engelman Dam by adding property rights at this location.

The 86 acres was appraised at $200,000 by Stuart Rouse, MAI, a local independent appraiser with an

effective date of April 13, 2012. The inundation easement for the dam consists of much of this acreage,

however the southernmost four acres, unencumbered by the inundation easement, is outside the 100-year

floodplain, and has direct access to Binz Engelman Road. These four acres have development potential

which can be utilized by SARA or ground leased to a third party.

The acquisition of the 86 acres also allows access to the east side of the dam for operations and

maintenance. Binz Engelman Dam is set to be rehabilitated starting this fiscal year, therefore this

additional access to the dam will be most convenient for the rehab and for operations and maintenance

activities for years to come.

The Martinez IV Wastewater Treatment Plant (Martinez IV) site is an approximate 151.91 acre site of

vacant land located at Interstate Highway 10 and Graytown Road in San Antonio, Texas. It was acquired

by SARA in 1999 for use as a wastewater treatment plant and land disposal (irrigation) with treated

effluent. The site was never used for these purposes with the completion of the Graytown Wastewater

Collection System and the purchase of land for the proposed Graytown Wastewater Treatment Plant

(WWTP) site.

Currently, SARA leases the property to Raymond Zigmond who uses it for cattle grazing. In return for

agricultural use of the land, Mr. Zigmond maintains the fences and performs brush control. This is a short

term lease which may be canceled upon thirty days’ notice.

The proposed land exchange involves the two existing SARA properties mentioned above, Binz

The proposed land exchange involves the two existing SARA properties mentioned above, Binz

Engelman Dam and Martinez IV. The exchange will consist of SARA receiving 86 acres currently owned

by SA JBDI, Ltd. (Bruce Cash) at the dam. Near the center of the Martinez IV property is a 15.919 acre

tract of land (School Tract) that East Central Independent School District (ECISD) would like to utilize as

an elementary school site. The School Tract will be conveyed from SARA to Bruce Cash who will

subsequently donate to ECISD. Access to the School Tract will also be conveyed in the form of an

undefined 60-foot right of way connecting Green Road with the School Tract.

Consideration for the exchange is the land swap of the SAJBDI Tract and the School Tract between the

parties. In addition, I-10 Investments, Ltd. (Paloma) agrees to construct, operate and maintain low impact

development measures on the entrance roads to its subdivision that capture and treat the first 1.7 inches of

rainfall. Bruce Cash is also the manager for I-10 Investments, Ltd. which is developing Paloma

Subdivision located adjacent and north of Martinez IV. An elementary school site adjacent to Paloma

should enhance residential lot sales.

The proposed land exchange also enhances the value of the remaining land at Martinez IV with a

proposed elementary school site. Stuart Rouse, MAI, performed an appraisal dated April 13, 2012, with

and without an elementary school site for the Martinez IV. His opinion of value for the entire 152 acre

tract as is was $11,500 per acre or $1,750,000 rounded. With the proposed elementary school site, Mr.

Rouse estimated an approximate ten percent increase in the value of the remainder or $12,500 per acre. In

this case, the remainder after the conveyance to ECISD is 136 acres at $12,500 per acre or $1,700,000.

The long range plan is to use proceeds of the sale from Martinez IV to help fund the construction of the

first phase for the proposed Graytown WWTP. The initial Graytown WWTP will be a 250,000 gallons

per day advanced secondary wastewater treatment plant. Once this exchange is consummated, a

marketing effort will commence to sell the remainder of Martinez IV.

A Phase I Environmental Assessment was performed on both the SAJBDI Tract and the Martinez IV site

and revealed no environmental concerns that would compromise or limit SARA's intended use of the

land.

Funding for staff time to conduct this analysis is budgeted.

The San Antonio River Authority (SARA) owns and operates the Martinez II Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP)

located at 1720 FM 1516 in Converse, Texas. SARA has been using and maintaining the original access road off of

FM 1516 since the plant was placed in operation in 1987.

It was discovered recently that SARA does not have a deed to all of the original access road to the plant. Research

indicates the road was once a county road, however Bexar County disavows it. No deed can be found for the

1.0146 acres.

Board action is necessary to proceed with condemnation action for the curing of title and acquisition of this parcel.

SARA seeks fee simple ownership of the property to provide access to the Martinez II WWTP. Once the eminent

domain action is complete this portion of the original access road will be incorporated into the lease dated January

1, 2014, with Texas Landfill Management, LLC who will be responsible for any capital improvements and

maintenance of the road. Also, after this legal action occurs SARA will provide reasonable access easements to all

landowners with access points along the road. These landowners have been contacted by SARA's Real Estate

Department staff.

On November 3, 2014, an appraisal was performed on the 1.0146 acres. A local independent appraiser, Paul P.

Grafe, MAI of Valbridge Property Advisors provided an estimate of value of $16,700.

A Phase I Environmental Assessment did not reveal any recognized environmental conditions that would

A Phase I Environmental Assessment did not reveal any recognized environmental conditions that would

compromise or limit SARA's intended use of the land.

Funding to accomplish these goals and objectives was incorporated in the current year's budget.

At its December 8, 2014, meeting, the Operations Committee supported presentation of this item to the Board of

Directors for approval.

Recommendation

Motion that Ordinance O-1395 be approved declaring a public necessity for the acquisition of approximately

1.0146 acres of land used as an access road to the Martinez II Wastewater Treatment Plant.
