Owner is using the Required Improvements as its primary residence (collectively, the "Records") at
any time during the Compliance Auditing Term in order to determine compliance with this
Agreement. Owner shall make all applicable Records available to the City on the Premises or at

terms and conditions of this Agreement during the previous year of the Compliance Auditing Term.
4. EVENTS OF DEFAULT.
4.1. Defined.
Unless otherwise specified herein, Owner shall be in default of this Agreement if(i) Owner
fails to construct the Required Improvements as defined in Section 1.1.; (ii) ad valorem real property
taxes with respect to the Premises or the Required Improvements, or its ad valorem taxes with respect
to the tangible personal property located on the Premises, become delinquent and Owner does not
timely and properly follow the legal procedures for protest and/or contest of any such ad valorem real
property or tangible personal property taxes; (iii)OWNER DOES NOT USE THE PREMISES AS
PRIMARY RESIDENCE ONCE THE ABATEMENT BEGINS; or (iv) OWNER DOES NOT
COMPLY WITH CHAPTER 7 AND APPENDIX B OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF
THE CITY OF FORT WORTH(collectively, each an "Event of Default").
4.2. Notice to Cure.
Subject to Section 5, if the City determines that an Event of Default has occurred, the City
shall provide a written notice to Owner that describes the nature of the Event of Default. Owner shall
have sixty(60) calendar days from the date of receipt of this written notice to fully cure or have cured
the Event of Default. If Owner reasonably believes that Owner will require additional time to cure
the Event of Default, Owner shall promptly notify the City in writing, in which case (i)after advising

rap.
0 ')o2Gn n„., -..ea. n..,.....+')n ')nim
the City Council in an open meeting of Owner's efforts and intent to cure, Owner shall have ninety
(90) calendar days from the original date of receipt of the written notice, or (ii) if Owner reasonably
believes that Owner will require more than ninety(90)days to cure the Event of Default,after advising
the City Council in an open meeting of Owner's efforts and intent to cure,such additional time,if any,
as may be offered by the City Council in its sole discretion.
4.3. Termination for Event of Default and Payment of Liquidated Damages.
If an Event of Default which is defined in Section 4.1 has not been cured within the time frame
specifically allowed under Section 4.2, the City shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
immediately. Owner acknowledges and agrees that an uncured Event of Default will (i) harm the
City's economic development and redevelopment efforts on the Premises and in the vicinity of the
Premises; (ii) require unplanned and expensive additional administrative oversight and involvement
by the City; and (iii) otherwise harm the City, and Owner agrees that the amounts of actual damages
therefrom are speculative in nature and will be difficult or impossible to ascertain. Therefore, upon
termination of this Agreement for any Event of Default, Owner shall pay the City, as liquidated
damages; all taxes that were abated in accordance with this Agreement for each year when an Event
of Default existed and which otherwise would have been paid to the City in the absence of this
Agreement. The City and Owner agree that this amount is a reasonable approximation of actual
damages that the City will incur as a result of an uncured Event of Default and that this Section 4.3 is
intended to provide the City with compensation for actual damages and is not a penalty. This amount
may be recovered by the City through adjustments made to Owner's ad valorem property tax appraisal
by the appraisal district that has jurisdiction over the Premises. Otherwise, this amount shall be due,
owing and paid to the City within sixty (60) days following the effective date of termination of this
Agreement. In the event that all or any portion of this amount is not paid to the City within sixty(60)
days following the effective date of termination of this Agreement, Owner shall also be liable for all
penalties and interest on any outstanding amount at the statutory rate for delinquent taxes, as
determined by the Code at the time of the payment of such penalties and interest (currently, Section
33.01 of the Code).
4.4. Termination at Will.
If the City and Owner mutually determine that the development or use of the Premises or the
anticipated Required Improvements are no longer appropriate or feasible,or that a higher or better use
is preferable, the City and Owner may terminate this Agreement in a written format that is signed by
both parties. In this event, (i) if the Term has commenced, the Term shall expire as of the effective
date of the termination of this Agreement; (ii) there shall be no recapture of any taxes previously
abated; and(iii)neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder.
4.5 Sexually oriented business & Liauor Stores or Package Stores.
a. Owner understands and agrees that the City has the right to terminate this agreement if
the Required Improvements contains or will contain a sexually oriented business.
b. Owner understands and agrees that the City has the right to terminate this agreement
as determined in City's sole discretion if the Required Improvements contains or will contain a
liquor store or package store.

COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 8/29/2017
DATE: 8/29/2017 REFERENCE NO.: C-28360 LOG NAME: 193522VIEW
CODE: C TYPE: NON-CONSENT PUBLIC HEARING: NO
SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of a Five-Year Tax Abatement Agreement with Terri D. Perez for
the Construction of a Single-Family Dwelling Located at 3522 View Street in the
Oakland Corners Neighborhood Empowerment Zone (COUNCIL DISTRICT 8)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of a Five-Year Tax Abatement
Agreement with Terri D. Perez for the construction of a single-family dwelling located at 3522 View
Street in the Oakland Corners Neighborhood Empowerment Zone, in accordance with the
Neighborhood Empowerment Zone Tax Abatement Policy and Basic Incentives.
DISCUSSION:
Terri D. Perez (Property Owner) is the owner of the property described as Lot 3, Block 15, Tandy
Addition, an addition to the City of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Texas, according to the Plat
recorded in Volume 388, Page 31, Plat Records, Tarrant County, Texas, at 3522 View Street Fort
Worth, Texas. The property is located within the Oakland Corners Neighborhood Empowerment
Zone (NEZ).
The Property Owner plans to invest an estimated amount of$289,000.00 to construct an
approximately 2,800 square foot single-family residence (Project). The Project will be used as the
homeowner's primary residence.
The Neighborhood Services Department reviewed the application and certified that the Property
Owner and Project met the eligibility criteria to receive a NEZ Municipal Property Tax
Abatement. The NEZ Basic Incentives includes a Five-Year Municipal Property Tax Abatement on
the increased value of improvements to the qualified owner of any new construction or
rehabilitation within the NEZ.
Upon execution of the Agreement, the total assessed value of the improvements used for
calculating municipal property tax will be frozen for a period of five years starting January 2018 at
the estimated pre-improvement value as defined by the Tarrant Appraisal District (TAD) in 2017 for
the property as follows:
Pre-improvement TAD Value of $ 0.00
Improvements
Pre-Improvement Estimated Value of Land $7,000.00
Ff;ia Pre-Improvement Estimated Value $7,000.00
The municipal property tax on the improved value of the Project after construction is estimated in
the amount of$2,413.00 per year for a total amount of$12,065.00 over the five-year
period. However, this estimate may differ from the actual tax abatement value, which will be
calculated based on the Tarrant Appraisal District appraised value of the property.

004011—'
M&C Review
In the event of a sale of this property, the Tax Abatement Agreement may be assigned to a new
owner's first mortgage or a new owner as a primary residence. All other assignments must be
approved by the City Council.
This property is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 8.
This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that approval of the above recommendations will have no material
effect on the Fiscal Year 2017 Budget. While no current year impact is anticipated from this
action, upon approval, reduced revenues will be included in the long-term forecast associated with
years 2018-2022.
