person would have to live there after it was rebuilt? They might want to sell it
because of additional equity. Mr. Harper stated that some of these people will not
be alive in a year or two.
Alderman Smith stated that he feels their first priority would be to get a
ruling from the Attorney General . Mr. Harper stated that he believes that
Senator Farabee could request this ruling, but he does not know how long it will
take to get it.
Alderman Traywick inquired if he thinks the need is identifiable enough, and
specific enough, to reach everyone before the money is used? Mr. Harper stated
that both Interfaith Disaster Services and the City have a pretty extensive list.
Alderman Traywick also mentioned the necessity of property insurance on these
properties after they are rebuilt.
City Manager Gerald Fox stated that they are trying to get the guidelines for
discretionary funds from HUD so that they can put together an application. They
also need to know the number of individuals affected.
Planning Director Roger McKinney stated that we have not received any of the
seven million dollars the City has already applied for.
Mr. Harper stated that a person can't get a straight answer from HUD on anything.
He found out about these funds when he was in Baldwin County, Alabama. The City
Manager and Planning Director were told that we were not eligible for those funds
at that time. If these funds can be obtained before next April , then we do not
have to sell these bonds.
Alderman Thomas inquired what assurance he has that plumbers, carpenters, and
electricians will do this work for free? Mr. Harper stated that Menonites and the
Church of the Brethren will be in here after Christmas to help rebuild these houses.
Within the last week and a half he has had seven plumbers call him and donate ,one
day each week for this work.
Alderman Thomas stated that we should get the Attorney General 's opinion to
see whether it is legal .
Mr. Harper and the City Manager confirmed that we have the authority to use
Community Development Block Grant entitlement funds for rehabilitation. The only
problem is that the tornado affected area is not in the target area established
at that time.
Mr. Harper suggested that the Council get Dr. Weaver, of IDS, to confirm the
information he has presented.
Alderman Hampton stated that this is putting the election in a bind by this
late request. The items on the bond election were needed before the tornado. The
timing on it is not right.
Mayor Hill stated that he is not in favor of transferring any money around
at all . If they want to vote on it, it should be on its own merits. He also
asked if this could be added at a later date if it is legal? The City Attorney
stated he supposed it could. It would have to meet other timing requirements.
The Attorney General would have to render his opinion prior to December 26.
d ORDINANCE NO. 3580
ORDINANCE CALLING A BOND ELECTION
Moved by Alderman Hampton that Ordinance No. 3580 be adopted as proposed, with
the election to be held on January 26, 1980. We also are requesting a ruling from
the Attorney General on the legality of adding another proposition for disaster
aid. If we receive an answer prior to December 25, they would consider adding to
or changing the ordinance.

Mr. Miller stated that had it been a car, a foreign car could not have been
bid. The Harley Davidson is built and assembled in America. It appears that there
is an inequity here in the difference in the year involved. Alderman Traywick
noted that we are still in 1979. Mr. Miller stated that Kawasaki is building 1980
models at the present time. He stated that he does not know whether they are
built in this country or not, or whether they are assembled here. He stated that
Kawasakai did not meet specifications on the oil cooler and throttle lock. The
specifications were checked, and found that the Kawasaki did meet them. Mr. Miller
stated that the City is breaking precedence as established with the automobile
industry. The City Manager stated that this precedence has been broken on certain
things where competition requires, such as a compact truck.
The City Manager pointed out that all of these people were invited to the
specifications meeting, and invited to comment and make suggestions, some of
which they take and some they don't. It was pointed out that the bid form that
went out specified either a 1979 or 1980 motorcycle, whatever the current model is.
Mr. Miller displayed a safety bulletin from the Department of Public Safety
pertaining to injuries received by an officer riding a motorcycle. He stated
that if too much power is put on a light frame, it can go into what is called a
high speed wobble. Alderman Thomas asked Mr. Miller if he is saying that a
Kawasaki will do this, and a Harley Davidson won't? Mr. Miller he
knew of only one court case where this happened, but he personallyated knewtoftnone
which had.
Alderman Smith stated that these things should have been discussed in a pre-
bid hearing. We are not here to write the specifications today. Alderman Tr aywick

THE STATE OF TEXAS
COUNTY OF WICHITA
This contract made and entered into by and between the City of Wichita
Falls, Texas, a municipal corporation, hereinafter called "City" , and Wilson
Manufacturing Company, Inc. hereinafter called "Wilson".
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Wilson is the owner of a certain tract of land, hereinafter
called "Subject Property" , located in Clay County, Texas, said land being
more fully described in Exhibit A, which is attached hereto and incorporated
herein, and which land is located within City's extraterritorial jurisdiction;
and,
WHEREAS, the Board of Aldermen of the City has, by Resolution No.
, designated Subject Property as an industrial district, and auth-
orized and approved this contract which such Board of Aldermen deem to be
in the best interest of the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants
hereinafter contained to be performed by the parties hereto, City and Wilson
do hereby agree as follows:
1. City guarantees the continuation of the extraterritorial status of
Subject Property, and its immunity from annexation by City for a period of
one (1) year from January 1st 1980.
2. City will furnish water service to Wilson on Subject Property at rates
equal to 150% of the rates charged to users located within the City limits through-
out the term of this contract, unless the City's Board of Aldermen completely
eliminates the standard out-of-city additional charge established by ordinance,
in which event Wilson shall thereafter pay the same rates charged to users with-
in the City limits.
3. City will furnish solid waste collection and removal service to Wilson
on Subject Property, if desired, at rates equal to 125% of the rates charged to
commercial and business establishments within the City limits throughout the
term of this contract, unless City's Board of Aldermen completely eliminates the
standard out-of-city additional charge established by ordinance, in which event
Wilson shall thereafter pay the same rates charged to users within the City limits.
4. The water service and solid waste collection service provided to Wilson
by City shall be subject to the ordinances of City as presently existing and as
may be hereinafter amended.
5. City will furnish fire protection service to Wilson on Subject Property.
6. Wilson will pay to City during the one (1) year of this contract, as
payment in lieu of taxes, an amount in cash equal to 25% of that amount that
their normal City taxes would have been that year had they been in the City
limits. This payment shall be made between October 15 and December 31, 1980.
In computing the amount that their taxes would be each year during this con-
tract, the following rules shall be applied.
a. The appraised value of the land shall be determined in the
same manner that other land in the City is appraised.
b. The initial appraisal of the buildings and other improvements
shall be an amount equal to 92% of the actual costs of such buildings and im-
provements, which cost figures will be furnished to City by Wilson.
C. The appraised value of the machinery, equipment and other
personal property except for inventory shall be, throughout the term of this
contract, an amount equal to 65% of the actual costs of such machinery, equip-
ment and other personal property, which cost figures will be furnished to
City by Wilson.
i
d. The appraised value of the inventory shall be determined in
the same manner that the inventory of other firms in the City are appraised.
e. The current assessment ratio established by the Board of
Aldermen shall be applied to the appraised value in order to obtain the as-
sessed value; the current tax rate as established by the Board of Aldermen
shall be applied to the assessed value to obtain the amount that the taxes
would have been had the property been located within the City limits. The
payment in lieu of taxes shall be 25 0 of the amount so computed.
7. This contract does not release or waive any obligations to the City
in connection with any paving, curb and gutter, or other improvement liens
which may be assessed against Subject Property.
8. In the event Wilson should breach any of the provisions of this con-
tract, and it fails to remedy such breach within thirty (30) days after having
been notified by City to do so, then City shall have the right to terminate this
contract, and to proceed to annex Subject Property.
9. This contract may be extended, at the option of the City, in one year
increments under the same terms and conditions. In no event, though, shall
there be more than six such annual extensions. If the contract is not to be
extended by the City, prior to its expiration on December 31st of the contract
year, Subject Property shall be annexed to the City limits and shall be included
on the tax rolls of the City as of January 1st of the following year.
10. This contract shall be effective as of January 1, 1980.
