and
WHEREAS, the City Council desires that all of Stauffer's

WHEREAS, Stauffer`s Baytown Plant includes both real and
personal property in its refining and chemical manufacturing and

direct support of these operations and either situated contiguous
thereto or separated by public roads; NOW THEREFORE,
In consideration of the promises and of the mutual covenants
and agreements herein contained, it is agreed by and between the
Company and the City of Baytown as follows:
1. The City of Baytown hereby agrees that all of the land
and improvements thereon owned, used, occupied, leased, rented or
possessed by the Company within the area designated as Baytown
Industrial District No. 1 by Ordinance No. 885 and
amendments thereto which Industrial District is more particularly
described in Appendix A to this Agreement and made a part hereof
shall continue its extraterritorial status as an Industrial
District and shall not be annexed by the City of Baytown nor
shall the City attempt to annex, or in any way cause or permit to
be annexed any of such property during the term of this Agree-
ment. The City further agrees, promises and guarantees that
during the term of this Agreement the City of Baytown shall not
apply or purport to apply any ordinance, rule or regulation to
such property except as relating to noise, vibration, drainage or
flood control, and pollution performance standards as hereinafter
provided. Specifically, but without limitation, the City agrees,
promises and guarantees that it will not extend to said property
any ordinance, rules or regulation (a) governing plats and the
subdivision of land; (b) prescribing any zoning, building,
electrical, plumbing or inspection code or codes; and (c)
attempting to exercise in any manner whatsoever control over the
2
21122 -4c
conduct of the Company's business thereof. The City further
agrees that during the term of this Agreement it will not levy or
purport to levy ad valorem taxes against any real or personal
property owned, used, occupied, leased, rented, or possessed by
the Company within the property boundaries described in said
Appendix A.
2. It is further agreed that during the term of this
Agreement the City of Baytown shall not be required to furnish
municipal services to the Company's Baytown Plant, which are
ordinarily and customarily supplied by the City to property
owners within its boundaries, except as provided by mutual
agreement. Specifically, but without limitation, it is agreed
that the City of Baytown shall not be required to furnish (1)
sewer or water service, (2) police protection, (3) fire pro-
tection (4) road or street repairs, and (5) garbage pickup
service.
3. The Company and the City of Baytown recognize that in
the past the Company has paid a share of the needed revenue for
operating the City and providing services for its residents. It
is further recognized that during the next succeeding seven years
the City of Baytown will experience population growth as a result
of industrial expansion which will necessitate increased revenue
to provide expanded services and facilities. In view of this
increased need for revenue, beginning in 1982 the Company agrees
to pay the City of Baytown an Industrial District payment on or
before December 31 of each year during the term of this Agreement
an amount to be calculated on the basis of the below stated
formula:
A. In applying the below stated formula, the following
definitions shall apply;
1). Full Value Payment: The fair market value as
determined by the City, of all of the Company's
Baytown Plant within the corporate limits or
3
21122 -4d
extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City, X 0.35 X
the property tax rate per $100.00 of assessed
valuation adopted by the City Council for the City
of Baytown for financing the fiscal year in which
such December due date falls.
2). Tax Payment: The amount paid by the Company
to the City of Baytown as ad valorem taxes on that
portion of the Company's Baytown Plant within the
City limits. The tax payment shall be based on
either the value rendered on such property by the
Company and adjusted, if necessary, by the Indust-
rial District Review Board or the value determined
by the Harris County Central Appraisal District
when such district begins assessing the Company's
property for the City.
3). Industrial District Payment: Amount paid by
the Company in lieu of taxes pursuant to this
Agreement, which amount shall not include the tax
payment paid by the Company.
a
B. The C,Kpany's Industrial District payment shall be
calculated each year in the following manner using the above
definitions:
Industrial District Payment = Full Value Payment
minus Tax Payment.
C. For 1982 and 1983, the fair market value of the Com-
pany's Baytown Plant, including both those portions annexed and
those portions in the Industrial District, shall be determined by
an appraisal conducted by the City of Baytown and /or an in-
dependent appraiser of the City's selection and at the City's
expense. This value shall be used in determining the full value
payment described above.
n
21122 -4e
D. Under the terms of the Texas Property Tax Code, as
amended, beginning in 1984, the appraised value for tax purposes
of the annexed portion of land, improvements, and tangible
personal property shall be determined by the Harris County
Appraisal District. The parties hereto recognize that said
District has no authority to appraise the land, improvements, and
tangible personal property in the unannexed area for the purpose
of computing the Industrial District payments hereunder.
Therefore, for those years under this Agreement in which the
Harris County Appraisal District appraises values within the
annexed portion, the parties agree that to determine the fair
market value of all of the Company's Baytown Plant for the
purpose of .calculating the Industrial District Payment in the
manner described above, the appraisal of the land, improvements,
and tangible personal property in the Company's Baytown Plant
shall be conducted by the City of Baytown, and /or an independent
appraiser of the City's selection, and at the City's expense.
This value shall be used in determining the full value payment
described above. Nothing contained herein shall ever be con-
strued as in derogation of the authority of the Harris County
Appraisal District to establish the appraised value of land,
improvements, and tangible personal property in the annexed
portion for ad valorem tax purposes.
E. It is agreed by the parties that the City's Appraisal
✓i
ReXdew Board shall also act as the Industrial District Review
Board referred to herein until such time as the Harris County
Appraisal Review Board as created by the Property Tax Code takes
over the function of the City's Appraisal Review Board The
parties agree that at the time the Harris County Appraisal Review
Board begins functioning, the City shall create an Industrial
District Review Board which shall carry out the duties designated
to it in this Agreement.
5
21122 -4f
4. Annual payments under this Agreement shall be calculated
by the City of Baytown in the above stated manner. Determination
of City and Industrial District fair market values, in the above
stated manner, shall be made by City of Baytown and approved by
the Industrial District Review Board. Such final fair market
value as approved by the Industrial District Review Board shall
be subject to exception by the Company and should the Company
take exception to the fair market value of such property as
determined by the Board and should the board and the Company be
unable, through negotiations, to reach a mutually acceptable fair
market value on or before September 1 of the calendar year in
which such December 31 due date falls, then either party may
request determination of such disagreement by a mutually .ac-
ceptable arbitrator. The costs of such arbitrator shall be
shared equally by the City of Baytown and the Company, and such
arbitrator's determination shall be final and binding unless
either party within thirty (30) days after such arbitrator's
determination is received by the parties, petitions for a
Declaratory Judgment to the Civil District Court of Harris
County, Texas, as provided for by Section 5 hereof.
Should the parties be unable to agree upon a mutually
acceptable arbitrator, each party shall nominate one arbitrator
and the arbitrators so nominated by the parties shall select a
third arbitrator who will act with them as a three member arbi-
tration panel to decide the disagreement between the parties by
the concurrence of a majority of such panel. Such arbitrator or
arbitration panel shall determine whether the fair market value
of such property is as contended by the Industrial District
Review Board, by the Company, or some intermediate value. The
cost of such arbitration panel shall be shared equally by the
City of Baytown and the Company, and such panel's determination
shall be final and binding unless either party within thirty (30)
21122 -4g
days after such determination is received by the parties,
petitions for a Declaratory Judgment to the Civil District Court
of Harris County, Texas, as provided for by Section 5 hereof.
In determining the fair market value of property and
improvements as used herein, the Industrial District Review Board
and any arbitrator or arbitration panel shall base its deter-
mination on the replacement cost of comparable present day
facilities considering and giving effect to sound engineering
valuation practices relative to service life, life expectancy,
process and functional obsolescense.
5. If any disagreement arises between the parties con-
cerning the interpretation of this Agreement or the decisions of
the arbitrator or arbitration panel provided for hereunder, it is
agreed that either of the said parties may petition any Civil
District Court of Harris County, Texas, for a Declaratory
Judgment determining said controversy and the cause shall be
tried as other civil causes in which the Plaintiff must establish
by a preponderance of the evidence the correct interpretation of
valuation. Pending final determination of said controversy, the
Company shall pay to the City of Baytown on the due date the same
amount which is paid to the City for the last preceding period
as to which there was no controversy concerning the amount owed
by the Company to the City. The Company agrees to tender the
amount of potential liability to the registry of the Civil
District Court, Harris County, Texas, pending final determination
of the controversy beyond any further appeal.
6. All payment to the City of Baytown provided herein shall
be made to the City at the City Hall in Baytown, Texas. If any
payment is not made on or before the due date, the same penal-
ties, interest, attorneys' fees and costs of collection shall be
recoverable by the City as would be collectible in the case of
delinquent ad valorem taxes; provided, however, that this
7
21122 -4h
sentence shall not apply to any payment which may be found to
have been deficient as the result of proceedings provided for in
Section 5 hereof. The City shall have a lien upon the Company's
property upon any delinquency in Industrial District payment.
7. If any other municipality attempts to annex any land or
property owned, used,occupied, leased, rented or possessed by the
Company within the area designated as Baytown Industrial District
No. 1, more particularly described in Appendix A to this Agree-
ment, or if the creation of any new municipality should be
attempted so as to include within its limits of such land or
property, the City of Baytown shall, with the cooperation of the
Company, seek injunctive relief against any such annexation or
incorporation, and shall take such other legal steps as may be
necessary or advisable under the circumstances. The cost of such
legal steps, including attorneys' fees (other than the City
Attorney) retained by mutual agreement of the parties, shall be
paid by the Company. Should the City refuse or fail to comply
with its obligations under this paragraph, the Company shall have
the right to seek such legal action.
If the City and the Company are unsuccessful in preventing
any such attempted annexation or incorporation, the Company shall
have the right to terminate this Agreement as to any property so
annexed or incorporated retroactive to the effective date of such
annexation or incorporation, or the Company may continue this
Agreement in full force and effect; provided, however, that the
Company's right to terminate this Agreement must be exercised
within thirty (30) days after judgment upholding such annexation
or incorporation becomes final beyond further appeal. If any
payment is made by the Company to the City of Baytown after the
effective date of such annexation or incorporation and if the
Company elects to terminate this Agreement as above provided,
then as to such property so annexed or incorporated such payment
shall be refunded by the City to the Company.
A
21122 -4i
8. The City of Baytown and the Company mutually recognize
that the health and welfare of Baytown residents require ad-
herence to high standards of quality in the air em7(issions, water
effluents and noise, vibration and toxic levels of those in-
dustries located in the Baytown Industrial District No. 1, and
that development within the District may have an impact on the
drainage of surrounding areas. To this end, the Company and the
City agree that the same standards and criteria relative to
noise, vibration and toxic levels and drainage and flood control
which are adopted by the City and made applicable to portions of
the City adjacent to the Company's Baytown Plant shall also be
applicable to the plant within the Industrial District. The
Company further agrees to abide by the rules and regulations and
the permits issued to it by the Environmental Protection Agency,
the Texas Water Quality Board, the Texas Air Control Board, and
any other governmental agency having legal authority in these
matters. In this connection, it is recognized between the
parties that these agencies are charged with the responsibility
for enforcing air and water quality standards, and it is agreed
that so long as the Environmental Protection Agency, the Texas
Water Quality Board, the Texas Air Control Board, and other
related agencies are charged with such responsibility, nothing
contained herein shall be construed to impose upon the City of
Baytown any responsibility, authority or right, by termination of
this Agreement or otherwise to enforce any standards relative to
air and water quality as are established by law, rule, regulation
or permit. It is also agreed that no violation of any standards
or criteria adopted by the City shall be a reason for termination
of this Agreement.
E
21122 -4j
9. This Agreement shall be for a term of seven (7) years
from the date this instrument is executed and for such additional
period or periods of time as provided by the Texas Municipal
Annexation Act and mutually agreed upon the parties hereto.
This Agreement shall further terminate and replace that
certain Industrial District Agreement entered into between the
Company and the City of Baytown, dated September, 1975.
10. The benefits accruing to the Company under this
Agreement shall also extend to the Company's "affiliates" and to
any properties owned or acquired by said affiliates within the
area described in Appendix A to this Agreement, and where
reference is made herein to land, property and improvements owned
by the Company, that shall also include land, property and
improvements owned by its affiliates. The word "affiliates" as
used herein shall mean all companies with respect to which the
Company directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries
at the time in question, owns or has the power to exercise the
control over fifty (50 %) percent or more of the stock having the
right to vote for the election of directors.
11. It is agreed by the parties to this Agreement that only
full, complete and faithful performance of the terms hereof shall
satisfy the rights and obligations assumed by the parties and
that, therefore, in addition to any action at law for damages
which either party may have, the Company may enjoin the enactment
or enforcement of any ordinance or charter amendment in violation
of, or in conflict with, the terms of this Agreement and may
obtain such other equitable relief, including specific per-
formance of the Agreement, as is necessary to enforce its rights.
It is further agreed that should this Agreement be breached by
the Company, the City shall be entitled, in addition to any
action at law for damages, to obtain specific performance of this
Agreement and such other equitable relief necessary to enforce
its rights. However, nothing contained herein shall be construed
10
21122 -4k
to give the City any right to terminate this Agreement on the
basis of the Company's violation of any standard or criteria
relative to air emissions, water effluents, noise vibration, or
toxic levels, or drainage and flood control established by any
law, ordinance, rule, regulation or permit.
12. In the event the terms and conditions of this Contract
are rendered ineffective or their effect changed by the Con-
stitution, any legislative changes, the implementation of the
Texas Property Tax Code by the State Tax Assessment Board, both
parties mutually agree that said Contract shall be renegotiated
to accomplish the intent of this Agreement.
