CITY OF LUBBOCK, a munic$pality, hereinafter referred to as "Buyer":
WITNESSETH:
I.
QUANITITY
1. Buyer agrees to purchase and Seller agrees to sell such volumes of natural gas as may be
.requested from time to time by Buyer up to a maximum of 9,500?000 cubic feet daily.
2. Buyer agrees to purchase and pay for, or nevertheless pay for, an annual minimum volume of
1,000,000,000 cubic feet during any yearly peiod except as hereinafter provided.
3. Gas delivered under this contract is subject to curtailment or interruption when in the sole
judgment of the Seller such curtailment or interruption, regardless of cause, is necessary to main-
tain service to consumers served on the Seller's General Service. Schedule, Begular Industrial
Service Schedule or any other service scheiule. The Seller shall be the sole and exlusive judge
as to the necessity or desirability of cutting off or reducing the supply of gas hereunder from time
to time and the exercise of this right shall not be the basis for any claim for damages sustained
by either party.
4. In theevent an interruption in or curtailment of deliveries shall become necessary or
advisable, Seller shall at once notify Buyer by telephone, telegraph or other means, of the nature,
extent and probablelduration of such interruption or curtailment. Buyer shall resume the taking of
gas within a,reasonable length of time following notification by Seller that gas is again available'
5. In the event the delivery of gas is interrupted or curtailed at the request of the Seller,
then, in such event, the minimum volume of gas herein contracted shall be reduced for that yearly
period by 1/365th of such minimum volume for each day or portion of a day that the delivery of
gas hereunder wa& interrupted or curtailed.
DELIVERY POINT j
1. The delivery of gas hereunder shall be made at Buyer't municipal power plants located in the
City of Lubbock, Texas and other various locations in the City of Lubbock, Texas.
2. Sufficient space for a meter, or meters and regulators, is to be furnished free by Buyer at
a location to be muttially agreed upon.
III.
DELIVERY PRESSURE
1. Deliveries shall be made at the pressure requested by Buyer , but not to exceed Seventy-five
(75) pounds per square inch guage.
IV
METERING
1. Seller, at its sole cost, risk and expense shall install, maintain and operate at the
point or points of delivery hereunder a standard type orifice or positive meter or meters for
measuring the volume of all gas purchased by Buyer hereunder and Seller shall cause said
meters to be read at mutually agreeable intervals. Orifice meters and other facilities so
installed at the point of delivery shall be constructed and installed in accordance with the
specifications prescribed by report No. 2 of the Gas Measurement Committee of the American Gas
Association dated May 6:'-1935 and supplements thereto, or other generally accepted
specifications.
2. Said meters and all meter readings and meter charts shall be accessible at all
reasonable times to inspection and examination by Buyer but the calibration and adjust-
ment of Seller's meter or meters shall be done by Seller. Seller may destroy meter
charts and other records after two years.
3. Buyer may install,maintain and operate such check measuring equipment as it desires,
provided that such check meter and equipment shall be so installed as not to interfere with
the operation of Seller's meters.
4. Each such orifice meter shall be calibrated at least once each thirty (30) days
and each such positive meter of 5,000 cubic feet capacity or more shall be calibrated
at least once each year, by and at the expense of Seller in the presence of Buyer's
representative if Buyer so desires. Seller shall give Buyer or Buyer's designated
representative notice of each such calibration test in sufficient time to enaHe Buyer
to have its representative present. If upon any such test, the measuring equipment is
found to be not more den three per cent (3 %) erroneous in the aggregate, previous
readings of such equipment shall be considered correct in computing the deliveries of
gas hereunder, but such equipment shall be adjusted at once to read accurately. If
upon any test the measuring equipment shall be found to be inaccurate in the aggregate by
an amount exceeding three per cent (3 %) at a reading corresponding to the average rate
of flow for the period since the last preceding test, then any previous reading of such
equipment shall be corrected to zero error for any period which is known definitely or
agreed upon, but in case the period is not known definitely or agreed upon, then, for a
period extending back one-half (k) of the time elapsed since the date of the last test,
but not to exceed thirty (30) days. If for any reason, any meter is out of service or out
of repair so that the volume of gas purchased can not be ascertained or computed from the
reading thereof, the volume of gas purchased during the period such meter is out of
service or out of repair shall be estimated or agreed upon by the parties hereto on the
basis of the best data available using the first of the following methods which is
feasible:
(a) By using the registration of Buyer's check meter if installed and accurately
registering.
(b) By correcting the error in Seller's meter if the percentage of error is
ascertainable by calibration test or mathematical calculation.
(c) By estimating the volume of delivery by using as a basis the volumes delivered
during preceding periods under similar conditions when the meter was registering
accurately.
V.
UNITS OF VOLUME
1. The unit of volume for gas delivered hereunder, except as otherwise specifically
provided herein, shall be one thousand (1,000) cubic feet at a base temperature of
sixty (60) degrees Fahrenheit, and at an absolute pressure of thirteen and six -tenths
13.6 ) pounds per square inch, and the readings and registrations of the metering
equipment herein provided for shall be converted into such units.
VI.
MEASUREMENT
1. All measurement of gas hereunder shall be in accordance with the recommendations
for measuring gas contained in Report N6.2 of the Gas Measurement Committee of the American
Gas Association dated May 6, 1935 including the supplements thereto, or other generally
accepted tables relating to gas measurement applied in a practical and appropriate manner.
Correction shall be made by deviation form Ideal Gas laws.
2. An assumed atmospheric pressure of thirteen and one -tenth 13.1 pounds per
square inch at the delivery point or points described shall be utilized for measurement
purposes, irrespective of any variation of the aatural barometric pressures from such
assumed pressures.
3. The temperature of the natural gas flowing through the meter or meters shall be
assumed to be sixty (60) degrees fahrenheit, provided, however, that Seller may, at its
sole cost, risk and expense, install, maintain and operate a recording thermometer of
standard manufacture, so that it may properly record tho'temperature;of gas flowing through
Seller's meter or meters. In such event, the arithmetical average of the twenty-four
(24) hour record, or that portion of the twenty-four (24) hours during which gas was
passing, shall be assumed to be the temperature of the gas for that period and shall be
used in making proper computations of measurement.
4. For measurement by orifice meter the specific gravity shall be determined at least
once each month by the use of an Edwards type gas balance or other standard type instru-
ment tuitable. The gravity so determined shall be used in the computations of measurement.
In the event Seller has installed, or shall in the future install, a recording gravitometer
at a point on its system which properly records the specific gravity of the total stream,
a portion of which is sold hereunder, said gravitometer may be used to ascertain the
specific gravity for which correction is to be made.
VII.
PRICE
1. The price to be paid for gas delivered hereunder and measured as herein provided for shall
be as follows:
Sixteen and one-half (16.5) cents per MCF
2. The price provisions above are based on the delivery of natural gas having an average
heating value of 985 British Thermal Units per cubic foet when measured at a temperature of sixty
(60) degrees Fahrenheit when saturated with water vapor ancYunder a total pressure equivalent to that
of thirty (30) inches of mercury. Should the average total heating value of the gas delivered in
any billing period be more than 1,000 British Thermal Units per cubic foot, or less than 970
British Thermal Units per cubic foot, the total charge for such month shall be increased or de-
creased repectively in the percentage by which the average total heating value of such gas is
greater than 1,000 British Thermal Units per cubic foot, or less than 970 British Thermal Units per
cubic foot.
3. In addition to the price to be paid for gas delivered hereunder Buyer agrees to pay Seller
an amount equal to all of any increased, additional or new production, severance, gathering, pro-
cessing, transmission, sales or delivery taxes in excess of or in addition to those in existence
on January 23,1957, which are levied upon or attributable to all or any port -in of such gas, the
value thereof or the processing or handling thereof before the delivery of such gas to Buyer or in
connection with such delivery. All taxes levied on such gas after delivery shall be paid by Buyer.
4. Applicable rulings or orders of governmental representatives in charge of the administration
of any law or ordinance increasing or creat#g any such tax shall be binding and conclusive upon

court of competent j6risdiction.
5. Buyer shall be entitled to reimbursement from Seller to the extent of any payments made by
it to Seller pursuant to this Article VII which may be subsequently refunded by the taxing
authority.
6. Buyer shall not be obligated to reimburse Seller for any ad valorem taxes on properties or
for taxes which are based upon or measured by the natural gasoline or other liquified hydrocarbon
content extracted from the gas before delivery to Buyer.
7. In the event a minimum wellhead or field price is fixed by law or by a governmental regula-
tory authority relating to the gas or any portion thereof delivered under this contract, the prices
provided herein shall be subject to upward adjustment by Seller; provided however that before any
increase shallbecome effective pursuant to this paragraph, Seller shall give Buyer thirty (30) days
prior written notice, and in the event Buyer does not desire to accept such increase, it may cancel
this agreement by giving Seller written notice at least five (5) days prior to the effective date
of such increase.
8. In the event any governmental authority shall effectively establish a price at the point of
delivery provided herein, or a point related to a point of delivery different from the price
applicable pursuant to this contract, then the price as provided herein shall be adjusted as
required in view of such estiiished price.
VIII
Heating Value
1. The Seller may, or upon request by Buyer at Buyer's expense shall, install a recording
calorimeter of standard manufacture to determine the average total heating value of the gas de-
livered. The average total heating value cf the gas per cubic foot shall be determined for any
billing period by taking the arithmetic•average of the heating value as recorded, and such average
total heating value shall be used in adjusting the price provisions hereunder. In the event Seller
has, or shall in the future install, a recording calorimeter at a point on its system which properly
records the heating value of the total stream, a portion of which is sold hereunder,said calori-
meter may be used to ascertain the heating value for which correction is to be made.
2. If no calorimeter is installed, the heating value of the gas delivered shall be assumed to
meet the requirements of the first sentence of Paragraph 2, Article VII.
IX.

57-16-161-411 Motion by Commissioner Baker, seconded by Commissioner Byrd, motion carried, Mayor Forrest
and Commissioners Baker, B}r d and Maxey voting YEa, none voting Nay, to authorize the Mayor
to execute pipe line license between the City of Lubbock and the Panhandle and Santa Fe
Railway Company relating to construction and maintenance of a water line crossing 106.9' in
length and 30 inches in diameter across Railway Company's right-of-way and under main hack

57-16-161-412 Motion by Commissioner Maxey, seconded by Commissioner Byrd, motion carried, Mayor Forrest
and Commissioners Baker, Byrd and Maxey voting Yea, none voting Nay, to confirm the
advertisement for bids to be received for .construction of the swimming pool, bath house,
bleachers, filter plant and plumbing and electrical work in the Arnett Benson Addition.
Bids to be received at 2 o'clock P.M. February 28, 1957.
57-16-161-413 The City Commission considered the status of City employees who have held the office of the
Chief of Police and Fire Chief with respect to accrued and longevity payments due them
under the Civil Service law. This consideration was occasioned by the resignation of Harold
McInroe, Chief of Police, in his subsequent claim for back longevity pay. It was the City
Administration thinking that the sdary of Chief of Police and Fire Chief did not 'accrue
longevity pay because their positions are not under Civil Service. Haever, the law states
that employees in the Fire and Police Department accrue longevity pay and as the two chiefs
are legally in one of these departments, the City AttQrney gave an opinion that they came
under the provision of Civil Service Statute and asp%€Fie City owed longevity pay to the Chief
of each department.
The City Commission gave consideration to the longevity payment due to all former Chiefs of
Police and Fire Departments and it was determined that only Chief Glenn Smith in the Fire
Department and Chief Bill Iamb in the Police Department had any money accrued under the pro-
visions above stated. On motion of Commissioner Maxey, seconded by Commissioner Byrd, motio
carried, Mayor Forrest and Commissioners Baker, Byrd and Maxey voting Yea, none voting Nay,
the City Commission approved the payment of $2805.00 to Chief Glenn Smith of the Fire
Department and $180 to Chief Lamb of the Police Department, these sums being the maximum
accrued longevity owed to each Chief.

City of Lubbock
Lubbock, Texas
Dear Mr. Scott :
This will confirm our long distance telephone conversgion of February 12 relative to your
letter of January 30 asking that I submit a proposition to the City Commission regarding
the easement on my property, being Lot One (L) Block 11, 2nd Whitehead Addition to the
City of Lubbock at the intersection of Quirt Avenue and Idalou Road.
It is my understanding that the probable cost of the paving along my property would be I�
approximately $784.00, this being based on $7.00 per foot forthe 112 feet along my property.'
I would be willing to grant an easement across and along said Lot for the sum of $784.00, or,
the amount of the paving cost plus whatever cost would be incurred in preparing a supplemental
abstract; or, in other words, if the City will pay me $784.00 and pay forthe supplemental
abstract, I will furnish tle base abstract for examination, the same to be returned to me
after said examination. I would then execute said easement.
Yours very sincerely,

The following proposal was received from W. Henry Holmes in regard to an exchange of a 50' lot
for some City property.
January 24, 1957
The Honorable City Commission
City of Lubbock
Lubbock, Texas
Gentlemen:
The attached preliminary plat shows the location of a tract owned by W. Luther E. Smith and
myself which adjoins a tract owned by the City., in the Roles Acres Addition. Y)ur will note
the cyclone fence, owned by the City, fencing a brick building, is approximately 7.8 feet over
on our property.
It is our proposal to exchange this tract with the City for a tract of approximately equal size
on the North side of the City tract facing Quaker Avenue. We understand a paving lien will be
placed on Quaker Avenue and we propose to pay for the paving shaid this exchange be approved.
This exchange will give the City sufficient clearance around tie brick building now adjoining
our tract and eliminate the necessity of moving the cyclone fence from our property and any
questions concerning property lines.
Thank you for your consideration.
