FLOOD DISCLOSURE NOTICE
In accordance with Texas law, we are providing the following flood disclosure:
• We O are or ® are not aware that the unit you are renting is located in a 100-year floodplain. If
neither box is checked, you should assume the unit is in a 100-year floodplain. Even if the unit is not
in a 100-year floodplain, the unit may still be susceptible to flooding. The Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) maintains a flood map on its Internet website that is searchable by
address, at no cost, to determine if a unit is located in a flood hazard area. Most renter's insurance
policies do not cover damages or loss incurred in a flood. You should seek insurance coverage that
would cover losses caused by a flood.
• We O are or ® are not aware that the unit you are renting has flooded (per the statutory definition
below) at least once within the last five years.
As defined in Texas Property Code 92.0135(a)(2), `flooding" means "a general or temporary
condition of a partial or complete inundation of a dwelling caused by. (A) the overflow of inland or
tidal waters; (8) the unusual and rapid accumulation of runoff or surface waters from any established
water source such as a river, stream, or drainage ditch; or (C) excessive rainfall."

term or renewal period; (C) move out at our demand because

charge is not a termination, cancellation or buyout fee and
does not release you from your obligations under this Lease,
including liability for future or past -due Rent, charges for
damages or other sums due.
The reletting charge is a liquidated amount covering only
part of our damages —for our time, effort, and expense in
finding and processing a replacement resident. These
damages are uncertain and hard to ascertain —particularly
those relating to inconvenience, paperwork, advertising,
showing apartments, utilities for showing, checking pros-
pects, overhead, marketing costs, and locator -service fees.

won't be liable for loss, harm, sickness, or death of the
animal unless due to our negligence. You must pay for
the animal's reasonable care and kenneling charges.

this Lease or our Community Policies, you'll be subject to

brought into your apartment until it is removed. If an
animal has been in the apartment at any time during
your term of occupancy (with or without our consent),
we'll charge you for all cleaning and repaircosts,
including defleaing, deodorizing, and shampooing. Initial
and daily animal -violation charges and animal -removal
charges are liquidated damages for our time,
inconvenience, and overhead in enforcing animal
restrictions and Community Policies.
13. Parking. You may not be guaranteed parking. We may regulate the
time, manner, and place of parking of all motorized vehicles and
other modes of transportation, including bicycles and scooters, in

dents or buyers, insurance agents, persons authorized to enter under

the apartment at reasonable times for reasonable business purposes.

fully and at reasonable times (by breaking a window or other means
when necessary) for reasonable business purposes if written notice of
the entry is left in a conspicuous place in the apartment immediately

15. Requests, Repairs and Malfunctions.
15.1. Written Requests Requi red. Ifyou or any occupant needs
to send a request —for example, for repairs, installations,
services, ownership disclosure, orsecurity-related matters —
it must be written and delivered to our designated
representative in accordance with this Lease (except for
fair -housing accommodation or modification requests or
situations involving imminent danger or threats to health or
safety, such as fire, smoke, gas, explosion, or crime in
progress). Our written notes regarding your oral request do
not constitute a written request from you. Our complying
with or responding to any oral request doesn't waive the strict
requirement for written notices under this Lease. A request
for maintenance or repair by anyone residing in your
apartment constitutes a request from all residents. The time,
manner, method and means of performing maintenance
and repairs, including whether or which vendors to use,
are within our sole discretion.
15.2. Your Requirement to Notify. You must promptly notify us in
writing of air conditioning or heating problems, water leaks or
moisture, mold, electrical problems, malfunctioning lights,
broken or missing locks or latches, or any other condition that
poses a hazard or threat to property, health, or safety. Unless
we instruct otherwise, you are required to keep the
apartment cooled or heated according to this Lease. Air
conditioning problems are normally not emergencies.
15.3. Utilities. We may change or install utility lines or
equipment serving the apartment if the work is done
reasonably without substantially increasing your
utility costs. We may turn off equipment and interrupt
utilities as needed to perform work or to avoid
property damage or other emergencies. If utilities
malfunction or are damaged by fire, water, or similar
cause, you must notify our representative immediately.
15.4. Your Remedies. We'll act with customary diligence to
make repairs and reconnections within a reasonable
time, taking into consideration when casualty -insurance
proceeds are received. Unless required by statute after
a casualty loss, or during equipment repair, your Rent
will not abate in whole or in part. "Reasonable time"
accounts for the severity and nature of the problem and
the reasonable availability of materials, labor, and
utilities. If we fail to timely repair a condition that
materially affects the physical health or safety of an
ordinary resident as required by the Texas Property Code,
you maybe entitled to exercise remedies under § 92.056
and § 92.0567 of the Texas Property Code. If you follow
the procedures under those sections, the following
remedies, among others, may be available to you:
(7) termination of this Lease and an appropriate refund
under 92.056(f); (2) have the condition repaired or
remedied according to § 92.0561; (3) deduct from the Rent
the cost of the repair or remedy according to § 92.0561;
and 4) judicial remedies according to § 92.0563.
16. Our Right to Terminate for Apartment Community Damage or
Closure. If, in our solejudgment, damages to the unit or building are
significant or performance of needed repairs poses a danger to you,
we may terminate this Lease and your right to possession by giving
you at least 7 days' written notice. If termination occurs, you agree
we'll refund only prorated rent and all deposits, minus lawful deduc-
tions. We may remove, store, or dispose of your personal property if,
in our sole judgment, it poses a health or safety hazard or impedes
our ability to make repairs.
Texas Property Code secs. 92.751, 92.153, and 92.154 require, with
some exceptions, that we provide at no cost to you when occupancy
begins: (A) a window latch on each window; (6) a doorviewer (peep-
hole or window) on each exterior door; (C) a pin lock on each sliding
door; (D) either a door -handle latch or a security bar on each sliding
door, (E) a keyless bolting device (deadbolt) on each exterior door;
and (F) either a keyed doorknob lock or a keyed deadbolt lock on
one entry door. Keyed locks will be rekeyed after the prior resident
moves out. The rekeying will be done either before you move in or
within 7 days after you move in, as required by law. If we fail to in-
stall or rekey security devices as required by law, you have the right
to do so and deduct the reasonable cost from your next Rent pay-
ment under Texas Property Code sec. 92.165(I). We may deactivate
or not install keyless bolting devices on your doors if (A) you or an
occupant in the dwelling is over 55 or disabled, and (8) the require-
ments of Texas Property Code sec. 92.153(e) or (f) are satisfied.
18.1. Smoke Alarms and Detection Devices. We'll furnish
smoke alarms or other detection devices required by law
or city ordinance. We may install additional detectors
not so required. We'll test them and provide working
batteries when you first take possession of your
apartment. Upon request, we'll provide, as required by
law, a smoke alarm capable of alerting a person with a
hearing impairment.
You must pay for and replace batteries as needed,
unless the law provides otherwise. We may replace dead
or missing batteries at your expense, without prior notice
to you. Neither you nor your guests or occupants may
disable alarms or detectors. If you damage or disable the
smoke alarm or remove a battery without replacing it
with a working battery, you may be liable to us under
Texas Property Code sec.92.2671 for $ 100 plus one
month's Rent, actual damages, and attorney's fees.
18.2. Duty to Report. You must immediately report to us any
missing, malfunctioning or defective security devices,
smoke alarms or detectors. You'll be liable if you fail to
report malfunctions, or fail to report any loss, damage, or
fines resulting from fire, smoke, or water.
19. Resident Safety and Loss. Unless otherwise required bylaw, none
of us, our employees, agents, or management companies are liable
to you, your guests or occupants for any damage, personal injury,
loss to personal property, or loss of business or personal income,
from any cause, including but not limited to: negligent or intention-
al acts ofresidents, occupants, or guests theft; burglary, assault
vandalism or other crimes; fire, flood, water leaks, rain, hail, ice,
snow, smoke, lightning, wind, explosions, interruption of utilities,
pipe leaks or other occurrences unless such damage, injury or loss is
caused exclusively by our negligence.
We do not warrontsecurity ofany kind. You agree that you will not
rely upon any security measures taken by us for personal security,
and that you will call 911 and local law enforcement authorities if any
security needs arise.
You acknowledge that we are not equipped or trained to provide
personal security services to you, your guests or occupants. You rec-
ognize that we are not required to provide any private security ser-
vices and that no security devices or measures on the property are
fail-safe. You further acknowledge that, even if an alarm or gate ame-
nities are provided, they are mechanical devices that can malfunc-
tion. Any charges resulting from the use of an intrusion alarm will be
charged to you, including, but not limited to, any false alarms with
police/fire/ambulance response or other required city charges.
20. Condition of the Premises and Alterations.
16.1. Property Closure. We also have the right to terminate 20.1
this Lease and your right to possession by giving you at
least 30 days' written notice of termination if we are
demolishing your apartment or closing it and it will no
longer be used for residential purposes for at least 6
months, or if any part of the property becomes subject to
an eminent domain proceeding.
17. Assignments and Subletting. You may not assign this Lease or sub-
let your apartment. You agree that you won't rent, offer to rent or
license all or any part of your apartment to anyone else unless other-
wise agreed to in advance by us in writing. You agree that you won't
accept anything of value from anyone else for the use of any part of
your apartment. You agree not to list any part of your apartment on
any lodging or short-term rental website or with any person or ser-
vice that advertises dwellings for rent.
18. Security and Safety Devices. We'll pay for missing security devic-
es that are reauired by law. You'll oav for: (A) rekevino that you
request (unless we failed to rekey after the previous resident
moved out); and (B) repairs or replacements because of misuse
or damage by you or vour family, vour occupants, or vour auests.
You must pay immediately after the work is done unless state law au-
thorizes advance payment. You must also pay in advance for any ad-
ditional or changed security devices you request.
20.2.
As -Is. We disclaim all implied warranties. You accept the
apartment, fixtures, and furniture as is, except for
conditions materially affecting the health or safety of
ordinary persons. You'll be given an Inventory and
Condition Form at or before move -in. You agree that
after completion of the form or within 48 hours after
move -in, whichever comes first, you must note on the
form all defects or damage, sign the form, return it to
us, and the form accurately reflects the condition of the
premises for purposes of determining any refund due to
you when you move out. Otherwise, everything will be
considered to be in a clean, safe, and good working
condition. You must still send a separate request for any
repairs needed as provided by Par. 15.1.
Standards and Improvements. Unless authorized by
law or by us in writing, you must not perform any repairs,
painting, wallpapering, carpeting, electrical changes, or
otherwise alter our property. No holes or stickers are
allowed inside or outside the apartment. Unless this Lease
states otherwise, we'll permit a reasonable number of small
nail holes for hanging pictures on sheetrock walls and in
grooves ofwood-paneled walls. No water furniture, washing
machines, dryers, extra phone or television outlets, alarm
systems, cameras, two-way talk device, video or other door

bells, or lock changes, additions, or rekeying is permitted
unless required by law or we've consented in writing. You may
install a satellite dish or antenna, but only ifyou sign our
satellite dish or antenna lease addendum, which complies
with reasonable restrictions allowed by federal law. You must
not alter, damage, or remove our property, including alarm
systems, detection devices, appliances, furniture, telephone
and television wiring, screens, locks, or security devices. When
you move in, we'll supply light bulbs for fixtures we furnish,
including exterior fixtures operated from inside the
apartment; after that, you'll replace them at your expense
with bulbs of the same type and wattage. Your improvements
to the apartment (made with or without our consent) become
ours unless we agree otherwise in writing.
21. Notices. Written notice to or from our employees, agents, or manage-
ment company constitutes notice to or from us. Notices to you or any
other Resident constitute notice to all Residents. Notices and requests
from any Resident constitute notice from all Residents. Only a Resident
may can give notice of Lease termination and intent to move out under
Par. 7.3. All notices and documents will be in English and, at our option,
in any other language that you read or speak.
21.1. Electronic Notice. Ifallowed by law and in accordance with
this Lease, we may give you notice electronically, by email, by
phone, or by delivery to your physical address.
You agree that electronic or emailed notices from us to you
may include, without limitation, a Notice to Pay Rent or Vacate
or a Notice to Vacate. Electronic or emailed notice from you to
us must be sent to the email address and/or resident portal
specified in this Lease. You represent that you have provided
your current email address to us during the rental application
process, and agree we may use that address or any updated
address you later provide in writing, for all notices and
communications permitted under this Lease. You must notify
us in writing if your email address changes.
21.2. Resident Email for Notices. You further agree that the email
address you provided in the rental application process or any
other email address that you have used to communicate with us
may be used for receiving a Notice to Vacate or Notice to Pay
Rent or Vacate, in addition to all other notices under this Lease.
You may update the email address in your application only by
providing written notice to us ofthe new email address. Any
notice sent to the email address you designated in your rental
application or to any other email address you have used to
communicate with us will be considered delivered when sent.
22. Liability. Each resident is jointly and severally liable for all Lease
obligations. If you or any guest or occupant violates this Lease or our
Community Policies, all residents are considered to have violated this
Lease.
22.1. Indemnification by You. You'll defend, indemnifyand hold us
and our employees, agents, and management company
harmless from all liability arising from your conduct or 24.
requests to our representatives and from the conduct ofor
requests by your invitees, occupants or guests.
23. Default by Resident.
23.1. Acts of Default. You'll be in default if: (A) you don't
timely pay Rent, including monthly recurring charges, or
other amounts you owe; (B) you or any guest or
occupant violates this Lease, our Community Policies,
or fire, safety, health, criminal or other laws, regardless of
whether or where arrest or conviction occurs; (C) you
give incorrect, incomplete, or false answers in a rental
application or in this Lease; or (D) you or any occupant is
charged, detained, convicted, or given deferred
adjudication or pretrial diversion for (1) an offense
involving actual or potential physical harm to a person, or
involving the manufacture or delivery of a controlled

related crime, including a misdemeanor.
23.2. Eviction. Ifyoudefault,,including holding over, wemayend
yourrights ofoccupancyand possession bygiving you at
least a 24-hour written Notice to Vacate or written Notice to
PayRentor Vacate, eitherofwhich maybegiven byanymethod
allowed under law, including email and other electronic
means. Any notice period in a notice to vacate or notice
to pay or vacate that ends on a Saturday, Sunday, or
state or federal holiday will be shortened to end on that day
-it will not be extended to the next business day.
Termination of your possession rights doesn't release you
from liability for future Rent or other Lease obligations. After
giving Notice to Pay Rent or Vacate (ifyou don't timely pay)
or Notice to Vacate or filing an eviction suit we may still
accept Rent or other sums due, the filing or acceptance
doesn't waive or diminish our righ t ofeviction or any other
contractual orstatutoryright Accepting money at any time
doesn't waive our right to damages, to past or future Rent or
other sums, or to our continuing with eviction proceedings.
In an eviction, Rent is owed for the full rental period and will
not be prorated.
23.3. Acceleration. Unless we elect not to accelerate Rent, all
monthly Rent for the rest of the Lease term or renewal
period will be accelerated automatically without notice
or demand (before or after acceleration) and will be
immediately due if, without our written consent: (A) you
move out, remove property in preparing to move out,
or you or any occupant gives oral or written notice of
intent to move out before the Lease term or renewal
period ends; and (B) you haven't paid all Rent for the
entire Lease term or renewal period. Remaining Rent will
also be accelerated if you're judicially evicted or move
out when we demand because you've defaulted.
If you don't pay thefirst month's Rent when or beforethis Lease
begins, all future Rent for the Lease term will be automatically
accelerated without notice and become immediately due. We
also may end your right of occupancy and recover damages,
future Rent, attorney's fees, court costs, and other lawful charges.
23.4. Holdover. You and all occupants must vacate and surrender
the apartment by or before the date contained in: (1) your
move -out notice (2) our Notice to Pay Rent or Vacate (ifyou
don't timely pay) or our Notice to Vacate, (3) our notice of non -
renewal, or (4) a written agreement specifying a different
move -out date. Ifa holdover occurs, then you'll be liable to us
for all Rent for the full term of the previously signed lease of a
new resident who can't occupy because of the holdover, and
at our option, we may extend the Lease term and/or increase
the Rent by 250/6 by delivering written notice to you or your
apartment while you continue to hold over.
23.5. Other Remedies. We may report unpaid amounts to
credit agencies as allowed by law. If we or our debt
collector tries to collect any money you owe us, you
agree that we or the debt collector may contact you by
any legal means.lfyou default, you will pay us, in addition
to other sums due, any rental discounts or concessions
agreed to in writing that have been applied to your account..
We may recoverattorney's fees in connection with enforcing
our rights under this Lease. All unpaid amounts you owe bear
interest at the rate provided by Texas Finance Code Section
304.003(c) from the due date. You must pay all collection -
agency fees ifyou fail to pay sums due within 10 days after
you are mailed a letter demanding payment and stating that
collection -agency fees will be added ifyou don't pay all sums
by that deadline. You are also liable for costs to cover our time
and expenses for any eviction proceeding against you, plus
our attorney's fees and expenses, court costs, and filing fees
actually paid.
23.6. Electronic Court Appearances. You agree that, to the extent
permitted by law, any court proceeding (including an eviction
case) related to this Lease may be conducted by videoconfer-
ence, teleconference, or other available electronic means.
Nothing in this paragraph limits either party's right to request
or agree to an in -person appearance in a specific proceeding.
Representatives' Authority and Waivers. Our representatives (in-
cluding management personnel, employees, and agents) have no
authority to waive, amend, or terminate this Lease or any part ofit
unless in writing and signed, and no authority to make promises, rep-
resentations, or agreements that impose security duties or other ob-
ligations on us or our representatives, unless in writing and signed.
No action or omission by us will be considered a waiver of our rights or of
any subsequent violation, default, or time or place of performance. Our
choice to enforce, not enforce or delay enforcement of written -no-
tice requirements, rental due dates, acceleration, liens, or any other
rights isn't a waiver under any circumstances. Delay in demanding
sums you owe is not a waiver. Except when notice or demand is required
by law, you waive any notice and demand for performance from us if you
default. Nothing in this Lease constitutes a waiver of our remedies for a
breach under your prior lease that occurred before the Lease term begins.
Your Lease is subordinate to existing and future recorded mortgages, un-
less the owner's lender chooses otherwise.
All remedies are cumulative. Exercising one remedy won't constitute
an election or waiver of other remedies. All provisions regarding our
nonliability or nonduty apply to our employees, agents, and manage-
ment companies. No employee, agent, or management company is
personally liable for any of our contractual, statutory, or other obliga-
tions merely by virtue of acting on our behalf.
25. Move -Out Notice. Before moving out you mustgive our represen-
tative advance written move -out notice as stated in Par.4, even if
this Lease has become a month -to -month lease. The move -out date
can't be changed unless we and you both agree in writing.
Your move -out notice must comply with each of the following:
(a) Unless we require more than 30 days' notice, ifyou give
notice on the first day of the month you intend to move
out, move out will be on the last day of that month.
(b) Your move -out notice must not terminate this Lease
before the end of the Lease term or renewal period.
(c) If we require you to give us more than 30 days' written
notice to move out before the end of the Lease term, we

will give you 1 written reminder not less than 5 days nor
more than 90 days before your deadline for giving us
your written move -out notice. Ifwe fail to give a reminder
notice, 30 days' written notice to move out is required.
(d) You must get from us a written acknowledgment of your
notice.

negligence, carelessness, accident, or abuse).

doned. An apartment is also considered abandoned 10 days after the
death of a sole resident.

judicial eviction ends your right of possession for all purposes
and gives us the immediate right to clean up, make repairs in,
and relet the apartment; determine any security -deposit
deductions; and remove or store property left in the apartment.

or any locator service that you used confirms membership in good
standing of both the Texas Apartment Association and the affiliated
local apartment association for the area where the apartment is
located at the time of signing this Lease. If not, the following applies:

(except for property damages); and (B) we may not recover past or
future rent or other charges. The above remedies also apply if both
ofthe following occur: (1) this Lease is automatically renewed on a
month -to -month basis more than once after membership in TAA and
the local association has lapsed; and (2) neitherthe owner northe man-
agement company is a member of TAA and the local association during
the third automatic renewal. A signed affidavit from the affiliated local
apartment association attesting to nonmembership when this Lease
or renewal was signed will be conclusive evidence of nonmembership.
Governmental entities may use TAA forms if TAA agrees in writing.
Name, address and telephone number of locator service (if applicable):
29. Severability and Survivability. If any provision of this Lease is inval-
id or unenforceable under applicable law, it won't invalidate the re-
mainder of this Lease or change the intent of the parties. Paragraphs
10.1, 10.2,16,22.1,27,30 and 31 shall survive the termination of
this Lease. This Lease binds subsequent owners.

tial performance of any obligation under this Lease by
occurrences that are beyond our control, including but
not limited to, an act of God, strikes, epidemics, war, acts of

Owner as described in the Lease for the dwelling described below:
Apt.# at MIA Forest Oaks
LLC
(name of apartments)
or other dwelling located at
(street address of house, duplex,. etc.)
(city)
(state) (zip).
2. Purpose. This addendum modifies the Lease Contract to address
any infestation of bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) that might be found
in the dwelling or on your personal property. We will rely on repre-
sentations that you make to us in this addendum.
3. Inspection and Infestations. We are not aware of any current
evidence of bed bugs or bed -bug infestation in the dwelling.
BY SIGNING THIS ADDENDUM YOU REPRESENT THAT:
• YOU HAVE INSPECTED THE DWELLING BEFORE MOVING
IN OR SIGNING THIS ADDENDUM, AND YOU DID NOT
FIND ANY EVIDENCE OF BED BUGS OR BEDBUG INFES-
TATIONS, OR
• YOU WILL INSPECT THE DWELLING WITHIN 48 HOURS
AFTER MOVING IN OR SIGNING THIS ADDENDUM AND
WILL NOTIFY US OF ANY BED BUGS OR BEDBUG INFES-
TATION.
Access for Inspection and Pest Treatment. You must allow us
and our pest -control agents access to the dwelling at reasonable
times to inspect for or treat bed bugs. We can also inspect and treat
adjacent or neighboring dwellings to the infestation, even if those
dwellings are not the source or cause of the known infestation. Si-
multaneously as we treat the dwelling, you must, at your expense,
have your personal property, furniture, clothing, and possessions
treated according to accepted treatment methods by a licensed
pest -control firm that we approve. You agree not to treat the dwell-
ing for a bed -bug infestation on your own.
5. Notification. You must promptly notify us:
of any known or suspected bed -bug infestation or presence
in the dwelling, or in any of your clothing, furniture, or per-
sonal property,
of any recurring or unexplained bites, stings, irritations, or
sores on the skin or body that you believe are caused by bed
bugs, or by any condition or pest you believe is in the dwell-
ing; AND
if you discover any condition or evidence that might indicate
the presence or infestation of bed bugs, or if you receive any
confirmation of bed -bug presence by a licensed pest -control
professional or other authoritative source.
6. Cooperation. If we confirm the presence or infestation of bed bugs,
you must cooperate and coordinate with us and our pest -control
agents to treat and eliminate them. You must follow all directions

that are infested. If you don't cooperate with us, you will be in de-
fault and we will have the right to terminate your right of occupancy
and exercise all rights and remedies under the Lease.
7. Responsibilities. You may be required to pay all reasonable costs
of cleaning and pest -control treatments incurred by us to treat your
dwelling unit for bed bugs. If we confirm the presence or infestation
of bed bugs after you move out, you may be responsible for the cost
of cleaning and pest control. If we have to move other residents in
order to treat adjoining or neighboring dwellings to your dwelling
unit, you may have to pay any lost rental income and other expens-
es we incur to relocate the neighboring residents and to clean and
perform pest -control treatments to eradicate infestations in other
dwellings. If you don't pay us for any costs you are liable for, you
will be in default and we will have the right to terminate your right
of occupancy and exercise all rights and remedies under the Lease,
and we may take immediate possession of the dwelling. If you don't
move out after your right of occupancy has been terminated, you
will be liable for holdover rent under the Lease.
8. Transfers. Ifwe allow you to transfer to another dwelling in the com-
munity because of the presence of bed bugs, you must have your
personal property and possessions treated according to accepted
treatment methods or procedures established by a licensed pest -
control professional. You must provide proof of such cleaning and
treatment to our satisfaction.
This Addendum is part of your Lease.

LEASE ADDENDUM FOR ALLOCATING SERVICES AND GOVERNMENTAL FEES
1. Addendum. This is an addendum to the TAA Lease Contract for Apt. No
MIA Forest Oaks LLC
in the
Apartments in
Texas. The terms of this addendum will control if the terms of the Lease and this addendum conflict.
2. Reason for allocation. Apartment owners receive bills for services provided to residents and charges for various
governmental fees. These are direct costs that the apartment community incurs. In order to help control the cost of rent, we
have chosen to allocate the services and governmental fees indicated below through an allocated bill using a standardized
formula to distribute these costs fairly. While we may impose a nominal fee to help recover our costs in administering these
bills, we do not add any other costs to these bills and make no profit off of them.
3. Services and governmental fees allocated
❑ Cable/satellite television
® Stormwater/drainage
❑ Trash removal/recycling
❑ Street repair/maintenance fee
❑ Emergency services fee
❑ Conservation district fee
❑ Inspection fee
We will allocate the following services and governmental fees:
❑ Registration/license fee
❑ Other
❑ Other
❑ Other
❑ Other
❑ Other
❑ Other
4. Your payment due date. Payment of your allocated services and governmental fee bill is due 16 days after the date it is
postmarked or hand delivered to your apartment. You agree to mail or deliver payment to the place indicated on your bill so
that payment is received no later than the due date. You will pay a late charge of $ 3.00 (not to exceed $3) if we
do not receive timely payment. If you are late in paying the services and governmental fee bill, we may cut off services, as
allowed by law, and we may immediately exercise all other lawful remedies, including eviction —just like late payment of rent.
5. Allocation procedures. Your monthly base rent under the TAA Lease Contract does not include a charge for the services
and governmental fees indicated above. You will pay separately for these charges which are defined under the Lease as
"Additional Rent". You may receive a separate bill from us each month or we may include these items as separate and
distinct charges as part of a multi -item bill.
You agree to and we will allocate the indicated services and governmental fees for the apartment community based on the
allocation method checked below: (check only one)
❑ A percentage reflecting your apartment unit's share of the total square footage in the apartment community, i.e., your
unit's square footage divided by the total square footage in all apartment units.
❑ A percentage reflecting your apartment unit's share of the total number of people living in the apartment community,
i.e., the number of people living in your apartment divided by the total number of people living in the entire apartment
community for the month. ("People" for this purpose are all residents and occupants listed in leases at the apartment
community as having a right to occupy the respective units).
❑ Half of your allocation will be based on your apartment unit's share of total square footage and half will be based on your
share of total people living in the apartment community, as described above.
0 Per dwelling unit
❑ Other formula (see attached page)
6. Penalties and fees. Only the total of the services and governmental fee bills will be allocated. Penalties or interest
for any late payment of these bills by us will be paid for by us and will not be allocated. A nominal administrative fee of
$ 3.00 per month (not to exceed $3) will be added to your bill for processing, billing and/or collecting.
T. Change of allocation formula. The above allocation formula for determining your share of the services and governmental
fee bills cannot be changed except as follows: (1) you receive notice of the new formula at least 35 days before it takes effect;
and (2) you agree to the change in a signed lease renewal or signed mutual agreement.
8. Right to examine records. You may examine our service and governmental fee bills from the companies and governmental
entities and our calculations relating to the monthly allocation of these bills during regular weekday office hours. Please give
us reasonable advance notice to gather the data.

Protection Agency (EPA) has determined that the mere
presence of asbestos materials does not pose a health risk to
residents and that such materials are safe so long as they are
notdislodged ordisturbed in a man nerthatcauses the asbestos
fibers to be released. Disturbances include sanding, scraping,
pounding, or other techniques that produce dust and cause
the asbestos particles to become airborne. The EPA does not
require that intact asbestos materials be removed. Instead,
the law simply requires that we take reasonable precautions
to minimize the chance of damage or disturbance of those
materials.

LEASE ADDENDUM FOR SATELLITE DISH OR ANTENNA
Under a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) order, you as our resident have a right to install a transmitting or receiving satellite dish
or antenna on the leased premises, subject to FCC limitations. We as a rental housing owner are allowed to impose reasonable restrictions
relating to such installation. You are required to comply with these restrictions as a condition of installing such equipment. This addendum
contains the restrictions that you and we agree to follow.
1. Addendum. This is an addendum to the lease between you and us for Apt. No. in the
MIA Forest Oaks LLC
Texas OR
the house, duplex, etc. located at (street address)
Apartments in
in , Texas.
2. Number and size. You may install 1 satellite dish(es) or antenna(s) on the leased premises. A satellite dish may not exceed
one meter (3.3 feet) in diameter. Antennas that only transmit signals or that are not covered by 47 CFR §1.4000 are prohibited.
3. Location. Your satellite dish or antenna must be located: (1) inside your dwelling; or (2) in an area outside your dwelling such as a
balcony, patio, yard, etc. of which you have exclusive use under your lease. Installation is not permitted on any parking area, roof, exterior
wall, window, window sill, fence, or common area, or in an area that other residents are allowed to use. A satellite dish or antenna may not
protrude beyond the vertical and horizontal space that is leased to you for your exclusive use.
4. Safety and non-interference. Your installation: (1) must comply with all applicable ordinances and laws and all reasonable safety
standards; (2) may not interfere with our cable, telephone or electrical systems or those of neighboring properties; (3) may not be
connected to our telecommunication systems; and (4) may not be connected to our electrical system except by plugging into a 110-volt
duplex receptacle. If the satellite dish or antenna is placed in a permitted outside area, it must be safely secured by one of three methods:
(1) securely attaching it to a portable, heavy object such as a small slab of concrete; (2) clamping it to a part of the building's exterior that
lies within your leased premises (such as a balcony or patio railing); or (3) any other method approved by us in writing. No other methods
are allowed. We may require reasonable screening of the satellite dish or antenna by plants, etc., so long as it does not impair reception.
S. Signal transmission from exterior dish or antenna to interior of dwelling. Under the FCC order, you may not damage or alter
the leased premises and may not drill holes through outside walls, door jams, windowsills, etc. If your satellite dish or antenna is installed
outside your dwelling (on a balcony, patio, etc.), the signals received by it may be transmitted to the interior of your dwelling only by the
following methods: (1) running a "flat' cable under a door jam or windowsill in a manner that does not physically alter the premises and
does not interfere with proper operation of the door or window; (2) running a traditional or flat cable through a pre-existing hole in the wall
(that will not need to be enlarged to accommodate the cable); (3) connecting cables "through a window pane," similar to how an external
car antenna for a cellular phone can be connected to inside wiring by a device glued to either side of the window —without drilling a hole
through the window; (4) wireless transmission of the signal from the satellite dish or antenna to a device inside the dwelling; or (5) any
other method approved by us in writing.
6. Safety in installation. In order to assure safety, the strength and type of materials used for installation must be approved by us.
Installation must be done by a qualified person or company approved by us. Our approval will not be unreasonably withheld. An installer
provided by the seller of the satellite dish or antenna is presumed to be qualified.
T. Maintenance. You will have the sole responsibility for maintaining your satellite dish, antenna, and all related equipment.
S. Removal and damages. You must remove the satellite dish or antenna and all related equipment when you move out of the dwelling.
In accordance with the TAA Lease Contract, you must pay for any damages and for the cost of repairs or repainting caused by negligence,
carelessness, accident. or abuse which may be reasonably necessary to restore the leased premises to its condition prior to the installation
of your satellite dish, antenna or related equipment. You will not be responsible for normal wear and tear.
9. Liability insurance and indemnity. You must take full responsibility for the satellite dish, antenna, and related equipment. If the dish
or antenna is installed at a height or in some other way that could result in injury to others if it becomes unattached and falls, you must
provide us with evidence of liability insurance to protect us against claims of personal injury and property damage to others, related to your
satellite dish, antenna, and related equipment. The insurance coverage must be $ 125000.00 , which is an amount reasonably
determined by us to accomplish that purpose. Factors affecting the amount of insurance include height of installation above ground level,
potential wind velocities, risk of the dish/antenna becoming unattached and falling on someone, etc. You agree to hold us harmless and
indemnify us against any of the above claims by others.
10. Security deposit. Your security deposit (in your Lease Contract) is increased by an additional reasonable sum of $ 175.00
® effective at time of installation or ❑ effective within days of installation to help protect us against possible repair costs,
damages, or failure to remove the satellite dish, antenna and related equipment at time of move -out. Factors affecting any security
deposit may vary, depending on: (1) how the dish or antenna is attached (nails, screws, lag bolts drilled into walls); (2) whether holes
were permitted to be drilled through walls for the cable between the satellite dish and the TV; and (3) the difficulty and cost of repair or
restoration after removal, etc. A security deposit increase does not imply a right to drill into or alter the leased premises.
11. When you may begin installation. You may start installation of your satellite dish, antenna, or related equipment only after you have:
(1) signed this addendum; (2) provided us with written evidence of the liability insurance referred to in paragraph 9 of this addendum;
(3) paid us the additional security deposit, if applicable, in paragraph 10; and (4) received our written approval, which may not be
unreasonably withheld, of the installation materials and the person or company that will do the installation.
12. Miscellaneous. If additional satellite dishes or antennas are desired. an additional lease addendum must be executed.

LEASE ADDENDUM FOR ALLOCATING NATURAL GAS COSTS
1. Addendum. This is an addendum to the TAA Lease Contract for Apt. No.
MIA Forest Oaks LLC
in the
Apartments in
Texas. The terms of this addendum will control if the terms of the Lease and this addendum conflict.
2. Reason for allocation. When natural gas bills are paid by the property owner, residents have no incentive to conserve
gas and heat. This results in a waste of our state's natural resources and adds to the overhead of the property —and that
usually means higher rents. On the other hand, allocation of gas raises everyone's awareness of the need to conserve gas
and heat and to pay attention to the thermostat and heat loss through open doors or windows. It should therefore minimize
the necessity for rent increases to cover wasteful practices of other residents regarding heating and gas consumption.
3. Your payment due date. Payment of your allocated gas bill is due 16 days after the date it is postmarked or hand delivered
to your apartment. You agree to mail or deliver payment to the place indicated on your bill so that payment is received no later
than the due date. You will pay a late charge of $ (not to exceed $3) if we do not receive timely payment. If
you are late in paying the gas bill, we may not cut off your gas; but we may immediately exercise all other lawful remedies,
including eviction just like late payment of rent.
4. Allocation procedures. Your monthly rent under the TAA Lease Contract does not include a charge for natural gas.
Instead, you will be receiving a separate bill from us each month for gas. We may include this item as a separate and distinct
charge as part of a multi -item bill.
You agree to and we will allocate the monthly gas bill for the apartment community based on the allocation method checked
below.
❑ A percentage reflecting your apartment unit's share of the total square footage in the apartment community, i.e., your
unit's square footage divided by the total square footage in all apartment units.
❑ A percentage reflecting your apartment unit's share of the total number of people living in the apartment community,
i.e., the number of people living in your apartment divided by the total number of people living in the entire apartment
community for the month. ("People' for this purpose are all residents and occupants listed in leases at the apartment
community as having a right to occupy the respective units.)
❑ Half of your allocation will be based on your apartment unit's share of total square footage and half will be based on your
share of total people living in the apartment community, as described above.
Per dwelling unit
❑ Other formula
S. Common area deduction. Only the total mastermeter gas bill will be allocated. Before the bill is allocated, a deduction
of o percent will be made to cover estimated gas consumption in any common areas, such as: (1) gas dryers and
room heating in laundry rooms; or (2) hot water heating for pools, spas or laundry rooms. Penalties or interest for any late
payment of the mastermeter gas bill by us will be paid for by us and will not be allocated. A nominal administrative fee of
$ 3.00 per month (not to exceed $3) will be added to your bill for processing, billing and/or collecting.
6. Change of allocation formula. The above allocation formula for determining your share of the natural gas bill cannot be
changed except as follows: (1) you receive notice of the new formula at least 35 days before it takes effect; and (2) you agree
to the change in a signed lease renewal or signed mutual agreement.
7. Right to examine records. You may examine our gas bills from the utility company and our calculations relating to the
monthly allocation of the gas bills during regular weekday office hours. Please give us reasonable advance notice to gather
the data.

LEASE ADDENDUM FOR AUTOMATED ELECTRONIC PAYMENT OF RENT AND CERTAIN OTHER ITEMS
1. Addendum. This is an addendum to the TAA Lease Contract for Apt. No. in the
MIA Forest Oaks LLC
Apartments in
Texas. The terms of this addendum will control if the terms of the Lease and this addendum conflict.
2. Automated electronic payments. "Automated electronic payments" include "Automated Clearing House' (ACH) and "Credit and
Debit Card" (Card) transactions. ACH refers to the nationwide network of banking institutions that have agreed to process electronic
payments automatically from your bank account to our bank accounts. Virtually all banks and credit unions participate. "Card" refers to
credit and debit card transactions, including those cards bearing the Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express logos. Collectively
"automated electronic payments" are paperless transactions that occur instantly and automatically without a check being hand -processed
through a local bank clearinghouse or the Federal Reserve System.
3. Advantages. There are significant advantages for you in paying your rent via automated electronic payments. They include:
• greater convenience since you won't have to worry each month with writing, mailing or delivering a rent check;
• no late charges since your rent will always be paid timely, assuming there are sufficient funds in your checking account;
• greater security since there is no chance that a check signed by you will fall into the wrong hands or get lost in the mail; and
• proof that you've paid since your bank statement is evidence of payment according to ACH and card network rules.
4. ACH payment authorization. By initialing here and executing this addendum, you are
agreeing that your rent payment or other payments as authorized by you will be collected automatically each month via ACH by debiting
(charging) your checking account electronically, in the case of your rent payment, on the same day of the month that your rent is due under
your TAA Lease Contract, and in the case of other payments, on the date(s) you authorized by separate agreement.
5. Card payment authorization. By initialing here and executing this addendum, you are
agreeing that your rent payment or other payments as authorized by you will be collected automatically each month by charging your credit
or debit card electronically, in the case of your rent payment, on the same day of the month that your rent is due under your TAA Lease
Contract, and in the case of other payments, on the date(s) you authorized by separate agreement.
s. Other non -rent items. Payment to us for other amounts (such as NSF charges, damages, or charges related to unauthorized animals,
etc.) may be mailed to us, deposited in our onsite drop box (if any), or delivered in person. Such other payments will not be processed by
Card or ACH electronic transfer except with your approval given at the time of each payment.
T. Your right to opt out. You have the right at any time to give us written notice of your decision to revoke your authorization for the ACH
or Card method of payment and to thereafter pay by regular check, certified check, or money order according to the TAA Lease Contract.
S. Delinquency. As long as your rent payments via ACH or Card are authorized and settled, you may continue ACH or Card payment of
your rent and enjoy any special considerations specified in paragraph 11 of this addendum. If any ACH or Card rent payment does not
clear, it will be treated as a default Oust like an NSF check) under the TAA Lease Contract. We have the right at any time to require you to
pay all future rent payments by regular check, certified check or money order, as per the TAA Lease Contract, in lieu of payment through
ACH or Card.
9. Multiple residents. If there are two or more residents on the TAA Lease Contract and if we accept multiple checks, each of you
authorize us to process your rent payment through ACH or Card as it becomes due, as follows:
Each resident's printed name Each resident's portion of the total monthly rent payment
$
Each co -resident of the unit must sign the attached form that authorizes automatic electronic payments through ACH or Card. This
addendum does not alter the provisions in the TAA Lease Contract regarding joint and several liability if there are multiple residents.
10. ACH and Card rules. We, as owners, agree to comply with all ACH and Card rules and operating regulations of the credit associations
and networks.
11. Special provisions.

tions. You should instead seek such information from a licensed

ance professional, or the Texas Department of Insurance. The Texas

dum, we may, in our sole discretion, agree to refrain from filing an
eviction against you for your default for not having the appropriate

thereof) during which you do not have the required insurance, with
no grace period. PAYMENT OF SAID AMOUNT DOES NOT RELIEVE

4. Previous average. As required under PUC rules, you are notified that the average monthly bill for all dwelling units in
the previous calendar year was $ 55.41 per unit, varying from $ 28.15 to $ 159.96
for the lowest to highest month's bills for any unit in the apartment community for this period, if such information is
available. The above amounts do not reflect future changes in utility company water rates, weather variations, total
water consumption, residents' water consumption habits, etc.
5. Right to examine records. During regular weekday office hours, you may examine: (1) our water/wastewater bills
from the utility company; (2) our calculations of your monthly allocations; and (3) any other information available to you
under PUC rules. Please give us reasonable advance notice to gather the data. Any disputes relating to the
computation of your bill will be between you and us.
One of the following applies:
O Submeter billing procedures
A. Your monthly water and wastewater bill will be submetered. Please see the applicable rules of the PUC
(attached).
B. As permitted by state law, a service fee of 9 % (not to exceed 9%) will be added to your monthly
water -service charges.
C. No other administrative or other fees will be added to your bill unless expressly allowed by law or PUC rules. No
other amounts will be included in the bill except your unpaid balances and any late fees (if incurred by you). If
we fail to pay our mastermeter bill to the utility company on time and incur penalties or interest, no portion of
these amounts will be included in your bill.
D. Any dispute relating to the accuracy of any submetering device will be between you and us.
E. We will bill you monthly for your submetered water consumption from approximately the 1 day of
the month to the 31 day of the month, the latter being our scheduled submeter-reading date. Your
bill will be calculated in accordance with PUC rules and this Addendum and will be prorated for the first and last
months you live in the unit.
® Allocation billing procedures
A. Your monthly water and wastewater bill will be allocated. Please see the applicable rules of the PUC (attached).
B. Common area deduction. Before calculating your portion of the bill, we will deduct for irrigation of landscaping
and all other common area uses, as required by PUC rules. We will also deduct for any utility company base
charges and customer service charges so that you won't be paying any part of such charges for vacant units.
No administrative or other fees will be added to the total mastermeter water/wastewater bill(s) to be allocated
unless expressly allowed by PUC rules. No other amounts will be included in the bill except your unpaid
balances and any late fees you incur. If we fail to pay our mastermeter bill to the utility company on time and
incur penalties or interest, no portion of such amounts will be included in your bill.
C. The allocation method that we will use in calculating your bill is noted below and described in the following
subdivision of Section 24.281 of the PUC rules (check only one):
71 subdivision (i) actual occupancy;
71 subdivision (ii) ratio occupancy (PUC average for number of occupants in unit);
O subdivision (iii) average occupancy (PUC average for number of bedrooms in unit);
® subdivision (iv) combination of actual occupancy and square feet of the apartment; or
O subdivision (v) submetered hot/cold water, ratio to total.
D. The normal date on which the utility company sends its monthly bill to us for the water/wastewater mastermeter
is about the 1 day of the month. Within 10 days thereafter, we will try to allocate that mastermeter
bill among our residents by allocated billings.

section have been met. Good cause may include:
(1) equipment failures; or
(2) meter reading or billing problems that could not feasibly be corrected.
(e) Waiver of tenant rights prohibited. A rental agreement provision that
purports to waive a tenant's rights or an owner's responsibilities under this
subchapter is void.
§ 24.281. Charges and Calculations
(a) Prohibited charges. Charges billed to tenants for submetered or allocated
utility service may only include bills for water or wastewater from the retail
public utility and must not include any fees billed to the owner by the retail
public utility for any deposit, disconnect, reconnect, late payment, or other
similar fees.
(b) Dwelling unit base charge. If the retail public utility's rate structure includes
a dwelling unit base charge, the owner shall bill each dwelling unit for the
base charge applicable to that unit. The owner may not bill tenants for any
dwelling unit base charges applicable to unoccupied dwelling units.
(c) Customer service charge. If the retail public utility's rate structure includes
a customer service charge, the owner shall bill each dwelling unit the amount
of the customer service charge divided by the total number of dwelling units,
including vacant units, that can receive service through the master meter
serving the tenants.
(d) Calculations for submetered utility service. The tenant's submetered
charges must include the dwelling unit base charge and customer service
charge, if applicable, and the gallonage charge and must be calculated each
month as follows:
(1) water utility service: the retail public utility's total monthly charges for
water service (less dwelling unit base charges or customer service
charges, if applicable), divided by the total monthly water consumption
measured by the retail public utility to obtain an average water cost per
gallon, liter, or cubic foot, multiplied by the tenant's monthly consumption
or the volumetric rate charged by the retail public utility to the owner
multiplied by the tenant's monthly water consumption;
(2) wastewater utility service: the retail public utility's total monthly charges
for wastewater service (less dwelling unit base charges or customer
service charges, if applicable), divided by the total monthly water
consumption measured by the retail public utility, multiplied by the tenant's
monthly consumption or the volumetric wastewater rate charged by the
retail public utility to the owner multiplied by the tenant's monthly water
consumption;
(3) service charge for manufactured home rental community or the owner
or manager of apartment house: a manufactured home rental community
or apartment house may charge a service charge in an amount not to
exceed 9% of the tenant's charge for submetered water and wastewater
service, except when;
(A) the resident resides in a unit of an apartment house that has received
an allocation of low income housing tax credits under Texas
Government Code, Chapter 2306, Subchapter DID; or
(B) the apartment resident receives tenant -based voucher assistance
under United States Housing Act of 1937 Section 8, (42 United States
Code, §1437f); and
(4) final bill on move -out for submetered service: if a tenant moves out
during a billing period, the owner may calculate a final bill for the tenant
before the owner receives the bill for that period from the retail public utility.
If the owner is billing using the average water or wastewater cost per
gallon, liter, or cubic foot as described in paragraph (1) of this subsection,
the owner may calculate the tenant's bill by calculating the tenant's average
volumetric rate for the last three months and multiplying that average
volumetric rate by the tenant's consumption for the billing period.
(a) Calculations for allocated utility service.
(1) Before an owner may allocate the retail public utility's master meter bill
for water and sewer service to the tenants, the owner shall first deduct:
(A) dwelling unit base charges or customer service charge, if applicable;
and
(B) common area usage such as installed landscape irrigation systems,
pools, and laundry rooms, if any, as follows:
(i) if all common areas are separately metered or submetered, deduct
the actual common area usage;
(ii) if common areas that are served through the master meter that
provides water to the dwelling units are not separately metered or
submetered and there is an installed landscape irrigation system,
deduct at least 25 % of the retail public utility's master meter bill;
(iii) if all water used for an installed landscape irrigation system is
metered or submetered and there are other common areas such as
pools or laundry rooms that are not metered or submetered, deduct
at least 5 % of the retail public utility's master meter bill; or
(iv) if common areas that are served through the master meter that
provides water to the dwelling units. are not separately metered or
Blue Moon eSi nature Services Document ID: 576824747
submetered and there is no installed landscape irrigation system,
deduct at least 5 % of the retail public utility's master meter bill.
(2) To calculate a tenant's bill:
(A) for an apartment house, the owner shall multiply the amount
established in paragraph (1) of this subsection by:
(i) the number of occupants in the tenant's dwelling unit divided by the
total number of occupants in all dwelling units at the beginning of the
month for which bills are being rendered; or
(ii) the number of occupants in the tenant's dwelling unit using a ratio
occupancy formula divided by the total number of occupants in all
dwelling units at the beginning of the retail public utility's billing period
using the same ratio occupancy formula to determine the total. The
ratio occupancy formula will reflect what the owner believes more
accurately represents the water use in units that are occupied by
multiple tenants. The ratio occupancy formula that is used must
assign a fractional portion per tenant of no less than that on the
following scale:
(1) dwelling unit with one occupant = 1;
(II) dwelling unit with two occupants = 1.6;
(III) dwelling unit with three occupants = 2.2; or
(IV) dwelling unit with more than three occupants = 2.2 + 0.4 per
each additional occupant over three; or
(iii) the average number of occupants per bedroom, which shall be
determined by the following occupancy formula. The formula must
calculate the average number of occupants in all dwelling units based
on the number of bedrooms in the dwelling unit according to the scale
below, notwithstanding the actual number of occupants in each of the
dwelling unit's bedrooms or all dwelling units:
(1) dwelling unit with an efficiency = 1;
(II) dwelling unit with one bedroom = 1.6;
(III) dwelling unit with two bedrooms = 2.8;
(IV) dwelling unit with three bedrooms = 4 + 1.2 for each additional
bedroom; or
(iv) a factor using a combination of square footage and occupancy in
which no more than 50% is based on square footage. The square
footage portion must be based on the total square footage living area
of the dwelling unit as a percentage of the total square footage living
area of all dwelling units of the apartment house; or
(v) the individually submetered hot or cold water usage of the tenant's
dwelling unit divided by all submetered hot or cold water usage in all
dwelling units;
(B) a condominium manager shall multiply the amount established in
paragraph (1) of this subsection by any of the factors under
subparagraph (A) of this paragraph or may follow the methods outlined
in the condominium contract;
(C) for a manufactured home rental community, the owner shall multiply
the amount established in paragraph (1) of this subsection by:
(1) any of the factors developed under subparagraph (A) of this
paragraph; or
(ii) the area of the individual rental space divided by the total area of
all rental spaces; and
(D) for a multiple use facility, the owner shall multiply the amount
established in paragraph (1) of this subsection by:
(i) any of the factors developed under subparagraph (A) of this
paragraph; or
(ii) the square footage of the rental space divided by the total square
footage of all rental spaces.
(3) If a tenant moves in or out during a billing period, the owner may
calculate a bill for the tenant. If the tenant moves in during a billing period,
the owner shall prorate the bill by calculating a bill as if the tenant were
there for the whole month and then charging the tenant for only the number
of days the tenant lived in the unit divided by the number of days in the
month multiplied by the calculated bill. If a tenant moves out during a billing
period before the owner receives the bill forthat period from the retail public
utility, the owner may calculate a final bill. The owner may calculate the
tenant's bill by calculating the tenant's average bill for the last three months
and multiplying that average bill by the number of days the tenant was in
the unit divided by the number of days in that month.
(f) Conversion to approved allocation method. An owner using an allocation
formula other than those approved in subsection (a) of this section shall
immediately provide notice as required under §24.279(c) of this title (relating
to Rental Agreement) and either:
(1) adopt one of the methods in subsection (a) of this section; or
(2) install submeters and begin billing on a submetered basis; or
(3) discontinue billing for utility services.
§ 24.283. Billing
(a) Monthly billing of total charges. The owner shall bill the tenant each month
for the total charges calculated under §24.281 of this title (relating to Charges
and Calculations). If it is permitted in the rental agreement, an occupant or
occupants who are not residing in the rental unit for a period longer than 30
days may be excluded from the occupancy calculation and from paying a
water and sewer bill for that period.
(b) Rendering bill.
(1) Allocated bills shall be rendered as promptly as possible after the owner
receives the retail public utility bill.
(2) Submeter bills shall be rendered as promptly as possible after the
owner receives the retail public utility bill or according to the time schedule
in the rental agreement if the owner is billing using the retail public utility's
rate.
(c) Submeter reading schedule. Submeters or point -of -use submeters shall
be read within three days of the scheduled reading date of the retail public
utility's master meter or according to the schedule in the rental agreement if
the owner is billing using the retail public utility's rate.
(d) Billing period.
(1) Allocated bills shall be rendered for the same billing period as that of
the retail public utility, generally monthly, unless service is provided for less
than that period.
(2) Submeter bills shall be rendered for the same billing period as that of
the retail public utility, generally monthly, unless service is provided for less
than that period. If the owner uses the retail public utility's actual rate, the
billing period may be an alternate billing period specified in the rental
agreement.
(e) Multi -item bill. If issued on a multi -item bill, charges for submetered or
allocated utility service must be separate and distinct from any other charges
on the bill.
(f) Information on bill. The bill must clearly state that the utility service is
submetered or allocated, as applicable, and must include all of the following:
(1) total amount due for submetered or allocated water;
(2) total amount due for submetered or allocated wastewater;
(3) total amount due for dwelling unit base charge(s) or customer service
charge(s) or both, if applicable;
(4) total amount due for water or wastewater usage, if applicable;
(5) the name of the retail public utility and a statement that the bill is not
from the retail public utility;
(6) name and address of the tenant to whom the bill is applicable;
(7) name of the firm rendering the bill and the name or title, address, and
telephone number of the fine or person to be contacted in case of a billing
dispute; and
(8) name, address, and telephone number of the party to whom payment
is to be made.
(g) Information on submetered service. In addition to the information required
in subsection (f) of this section, a bill for submetered service must include all
of the following:
(1) the total number of gallons, liters, or cubicfeet submetered or measured
by point -of -use submeters;
(2) the cost per gallon, liter, or cubic foot for each service provided; and
(3) total amount due for a service charge charged by an owner of a
manufactured home rental community, if applicable.
(h) Due date. The due date on the bill may not be less than 16 days after it is
mailed or hand delivered to the tenant, unless the due date falls on a federal
holiday or weekend, in which case the following work day will be the due date.
The owner shall record the date the bill is mailed or hand delivered. A
payment is delinquent if not received by the due date.
(i) Estimated bill. An estimated bill may be rendered if a master meter,
submeter, or point -of -use submeter has been tampered with, cannot be read,
or is out of order; and in such case, the bill must be distinctly marked as an
estimate and the subsequent bill must reflect an adjustment for actual
charges.
Q) Payment by tenant. Unless utility bills are paid to a third -party billing
company on behalf of the owner, or unless clearly designated by the tenant,
payment must be applied first to rent and then to utilities.
(k) Overbilling and underbilling. If a bill is issued and subsequently found to
be in error, the owner shall calculate a billing adjustment. If the tenant is due
a refund, an adjustment must be calculated for all of that tenant's bills that
Blue Moon eSi nature Services Document ID: 576824747
included overcharges. If the overbilling or underbilling affects all tenants, an
adjustment must be calculated for all of the tenants' bills. If the tenant was
undercharged, and the cause was not due to submeter or point -of -use
submeter error, the owner may calculate an adjustment for bills issued in the
previous six months. If the total undercharge is $25 or more, the owner shall
offer the tenant a deferred payment plan option, for the same length of time
as that of the underbilling. Adjustments for usage by a previous tenant may
not be back billed to a current tenant.
(1) Disputed bills. In the event of a dispute between a tenant and an owner
regarding any bill, the owner shall investigate the matter and reportthe results
of the investigation to the tenant in writing. The investigation and report must
be completed within 30 days from the date the tenant gives written notification
of the dispute to the owner.
(m) Late fee. A one-time penalty not to exceed 5% may be applied to
delinquent accounts. If such a penalty is applied, the bill must indicate the
amount due if the late penalty is incurred. No late penalty may be applied
unless agreed to by the tenant in a written lease that states the percentage
amount of such late penalty.
§ 24.285. Complaint Jurisdiction
(a) Jurisdiction. The commission has exclusive jurisdiction for violations under
this subchapter.

(a) Submeters or point -of -use submeters.
(1) Same type submeters or point -of -use submeters required. All
submeters or point -of -use submeters throughout a property must use the

(2) Installation by owner. The owner shall be responsible for providing,
installing, and maintaining all submeters or point -of -use submeters
necessary for the measurement of water to tenants and to common areas,
if applicable.
(3) Submeter or point -of -use submeter tests prior to installation. No
submeter or point -of -use submeter may be placed in service unless its
accuracy has been established. If any submeter or point -of -use submeter
is removed from service, it must be properly tested and calibrated before
being placed in service again.
(4) Accuracy requirements for submeters and point -of -use submeters.
Submeters must be calibrated as close as possible to the condition of zero
error and within the accuracy standards established by the American Water
Works Association (AWWA) for water meters. Point -of -use submeters

submetering systems.
(5) Location of submeters and point -of -use submeters. Submeters and
point -of -use submeters must be installed in accordance with applicable
plumbing codes and AWWA standards for water meters or ASME
standards for point -of -use submeters, and must be readily accessible to
the tenant and to the owner for testing and inspection where such activities
will cause minimum interference and inconvenience to the tenant.
(6) Submeter and point -of -use submeter records. Theowner shall maintain
a record on each submeter or point -of -use submeter which includes:
(A) an identifying number;
(B) the installation date (and removal date, if applicable);

tested;
(D) copies of all tests; and
(E) the current location of the submeter or point -of -use submeter.
(7) Submeter or point -of -use submeter test on request of tenant. Upon
receiving a written request from the tenant, the owner shall either:
(A) provide evidence, at no charge to the tenant, that the submeter or
point -of -use submeter was calibrated or tested within the preceding 24
months and determined to be within the accuracy standards established
by the AWWA for water meters or ASME standards for point -of -use
submeters; or
(B) have the submeter orpoint-of-use submeter removed and tested and
promptly advise the tenant of the test results.
(8) Billing for submeter or point -of -use submeter test.
(A) The owner may not bill the tenant for testing costs if the submeter
fails to meet AWWA accuracy standards for water meters or ASME
standards for point -of -use submeters.
(B) The owner may not bill the tenant for testing costs if there is no
evidence that the submeter or point -of -use submeter was calibrated or
tested within the preceding 24 months.
(C) The owner may bill the tenant for actual testing costs (not to exceed
$25) if the submeter meets AWWA accuracy standards or the point -of -
use submeter meets ASME accuracy standards and evidence as
described in paragraph (7)(A) of this subsection was provided to the
tenant.
(9) Bill adjustment due to submeter or point -of -use submeter error. If a
submeter does not meet AWWA accuracy standards or a point -of -use
submeter does not meet ASME accuracy standards and thetenant was
overbilled, an adjusted bill must be rendered in accordance with §24.283(k)
of this title (relating to Billing). The owner may not charge the tenant for
any underbilling that occurred because the submeter or point -of -use
submeter was in error.
(10) Submeter or point -of -use submeter testing facilities and equipment.
For submeters, an owner shall comply with the AWWA's meter testing
requirements. For point -of -use meters, an owner shall comply with ASME's
meter testing requirements.

house, manufactured home rental community, or multiple use facility or a
manager of a condominium may implement a program to bill tenants for
submetered or allocated water service, the owner or manager shall adhere to
the following standards:

LEASE ADDENDUM FOR ALLOCATING STORMWATER/DRAINAGE COSTS
1. Addendum. This is an addendum to the TAA Lease Contract for Apt. No. in the
MIA Forest Oaks LLC
Apartments in
Texas. The terms of this addendum will control if the terms of the Lease and this addendum conflict.
2. Reason for allocation. Governmental entities impose stormwater/drainage fees to help pay for the cost of maintaining
the infrastructure needed to prevent flooding and lessen the impact of pollution on our water system. These fees can be
significant. Our property has chosen to allocate this fee so residents are more aware of the true costs associated with these
fees and so it is not necessary to raise rents to keep pace with these fee increases.
3. Your payment due date. Payment of your allocated stormwater/drainage bill is due 16 days after the date it is postmarked
or hand delivered to your apartment. You agree to mail or deliver payment to the place indicated on your bill so that payment
is received no later than the due date. You will pay a late charge of 5 percent of your stormwater/drainage bill if we do
not receive timely payment. If you are late in paying the stormwater/drainage bill, we may immediately exercise all lawful
remedies under your lease contract, including eviction just like late payment of rent.
4. Allocation procedures. Your monthly base rent under the TAA Lease Contract does not include a charge for stormwater/
drainage costs. You will pay separately for these monthly recurring fixed charges which are defined under the Lease as
"Additional Rent". You may receive a separate bill from us each month or we may include these items as separate and distinct
charges as part of a multi -item bill. You agree to and we will allocate the monthly stormwater/drainage bill for the apartment
community based on the allocation method checked below. (check only one)
❑ A percentage reflecting your apartment unit's share of the total square footage in the apartment community, i.e. your unit's
square footage divided by the total square footage in all apartment units.
❑ A percentage reflecting your apartment unit's share of the total number of people living in the apartment community, i.e.
the number of people living in your apartment divided by the total number of people living in the entire apartment commu-
nity for the month. ("People" for this purpose are all residents and occupants listed in leases at the apartment community
as having a right to occupy the respective units).
❑ Half of your allocation will be based on your apartment's share of total square footage and half will be based on your share
of total people living in the apartment community, as described above.
❑ Per dwelling unit
❑ Other formula (see attached page)
S. Penalties and fees. Only the total stormwater/drainage bill will be allocated. Penalties or interest for any late payment of
the master stormwater/ drainage bill by us will be paid for by us and will not be allocated. A nominal administrative fee of
$ per month (not to exceed $3) will be added to your bill for processing, billing and/or collecting.
6. Change of allocation formula. The above allocation formula for determining your share of the stormwater/drainage bill
cannot be changed except as follows: (1) you receive notice of the new formula at least 35 days before it takes effect; and
(2) you agree to the change in a signed lease renewal or signed mutual agreement.
Z. Right to examine records. You may examine our stormwater/drainage bills from the utility company, and our calculations
relating to the monthly allocation of the stormwater/drainage bills during regular weekday office hours. Please give us
reasonable advance notice to gather the data.

All figures have been rounded to the nearest dollar for presentation purposes.
Each of these grants are an entitlement grant rather than a competitive grant received from the United
States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Entitlement grants provide funds to
agencies based on a formula prescribed in legislation or regulation, rather than based on review. These
specific grants are allocated to the City of Fort Worth based on population size and per capita income each
year. The grants have been consistently awarded to the City since 1974 with the inception of the
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) through the Housing and Community Development Act of
1974. The Emergency Shelter (renamed Solutions) Grant (ESG) was authorized in 1987 through the
McKinney-Vento Homelessness Assistance Act. The HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME)
and the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) Program were authorized through the
Cranston -Gonzales National Affordable Housing Act of 1990. With these grants, administrative and
program delivery allocations support approximately 90 FTE positions in the Neighborhood Services
Department, which is funded nearly 60\% with various grants including these entitlement grants.
Positions funded with HUD Entitlement grants are subject to grant availability. In the event of a grant award
being decreased or eliminated, the Neighborhood Services Department would review programs and
services funded by the grants and determine a level of service and staffing that aligns with the available
funding. Alternatives to consider may include staff and program reductions or eliminations.
The City of Fort Worth has certified that all programs receiving funding through the HOPWA, HOME, ESG,
and CDBG grants comply with applicable Executive Orders.
These programs are available in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the
attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated,
of the Grants Operating Federal Fund. The Neighborhood Services Department (and Financial
Management Services) will be responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the City. Prior to
an expenditure being incurred, the Neighborhood Services Department has the responsibility to validate
the availability of funds. These are reimbursement grants.
