A copy of the Option Contract and Memorandum of Option for the Medlock Farm
is filed with Resolution No. 4325.
November 18, 1993
Page 998
This land option contract is for land needed for the
new landfill. This property is located five miles west
of Abernathy, Texas and contains approximately 640
acres. The owner of this property is W.E. Medlock and
wife Kaye, and the legal description of the property is
All of Section 1, Block CK, Lubbock County, Texas. The
terms of this land contract are as follows:
1. The contract is for 1,460 days or 4
years.
2. Purchase price for the property is
$1,300 per acre.
3. The option price for the four years is
$300 per acre or $75.00 per acre per
year. Several real estate companies
and individuals were contacted in the
initial stages of the search for
potential landfill sites and only a few
would agree to a four-year option.
Six -months to one-year is more typical
a period to option land.
One real estate company offered two
tracts of land for sale for a four-year
option period. The costs of the two
options were $75 and $68.75 per acre
per year. This matches the option
amount the City is paying. Also, this
option amount comes off of the sales
price. After the City pays the option
price for the four years, the purchase
price for the land will be $1,000 per
acre.
Initially, Mr. Medlock offered the land
at $1,500 per acre plus the option
money. A short time back, Waste
Management Company approached Mr.
Medlock about the option on this same
tract of land due to its location and
terrain for a future landfill.
According to the consulting engineer
working with the Solid Waste
Department, this location and the
section of land to the south is a prime
location for the landfill. Due to Mr.
Medlock's tax situation, his attorney
has advised him to take all of the
four-year option money in one payment
at the date of signing of this
contract, which at $300 x 640 acres
would amount to $192,000.
November 18, 1993
Page 999
4. Sellers own 50% of the mineral rights.
The other 50% of the mineral rights are
owned by 56+ other individual and/or
trusts. There is a deed restriction
(covenant) which runs with the land
which was granted to Mr. Medlock in
1974 from the original owner which
states that it takes 75% of the mineral
owners to execute a contract. This
covenant will therefore give the City
control over the mineral rights leasing
of this land and over the other mineral
owners. This is referred to as
Executive Leasing Rights. They will
convey all of this interest at closing.
The seller also desires to participate
in a land exchange for tax purposes at
the time of closing. A real estate
agent will assist the City with the
land exchange. All water rights will
be conveyed at closing. Service Title
Company has verified all of these
interests.
5.
No improvements are on the property.
6.
The property is presently in CRP
(Conservation Reserve Program). After
the City purchases the property, any
remaining CRP payments become the
property of the City.
7.
This contract allows the City or its
contractor to perform any
environmental, historical, and
archaeological studies of the property.
There is a remote chance that some
archaeological work might be necessary
along the east side of the property.
8.
A Memorandum of Option is also to be
signed by all parties for recording in
the Deed Records in the Courthouse.
Staff have been assured by landfill engineering
consultants that a landfill permit will be approved
within this four-year time period. The Right -of -Way
Department recommended the acceptance of this land
option contract.
Motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Neugebauer, seconded
by Councilmember Cooke to authorize Resolution #4325 as

south. Owners of this farm are Edmond A. Anderson and
wife, Helen Anderson; Henry Louis Anderson, Eric V.
Anderson and wife, Frieda Anderson; L. Wilmer Anderson

November 18, 1993
Page 1001
3. The option price for the four -years is
$300.00 per acre or $75.00 per acre per
year. The owners have agreed to accept
the option payment one-year at a time
in the amount of $48,000.00 per year.
This option payment will be deducted
from the sales price. If all four
year's option money is paid in full to
the Andersons, then the purchase price
per acre will be $1,300 - $300 =
$1,000. Total purchase price at
closing will be $1,300 x 640 = $832,000
- $192,000 (4-years option money) _
$640,000.
4. Sellers own all the minerals and they
will convey their interests at closing.
All water rights are also to be
conveyed.
5. A few old farm structures and one old
residence are on the property. The
residence does not belong to the
Andersons but will be dealt with
separately by the City.
6. The land is all in cultivation, and the
sellers reserve the right to the crop
income for each year until the farm is
sold.
7. This contract gives the City the right
to survey the land and if the acreage
is less than 640 acres, the City has to
pay for that amount only. It also
gives the City the right of ingress and
egress to perform any environmental,
historical, or archaeological
assessment studies.
8. A Memorandum of Option is to be signed
by all parties for recording in the
Deed Records in the Courthouse.
The Right -of -Way Department recommended the acceptance
of this contract. According to the landfill consulting
engineering firm, this is the first recommended site of
the original 14 sites evaluated for a landfill.

The City of Lubbock executed a contract with Brazos
River Authority on May 11, 1989, for the construction
operation and management of Lake Alan Henry.
Subsequent to the execution of this contract, the City
and the Brazos River Authority executed Amendment No.
allowing the Brazos River Authority to subordinate
mineral interests necessary in the acquisition of
construction of said facility.
On May 20, 1992, the City executed a second amendment
to the initial contract authorizing the Brazos River
Authority to acquire fee ownership including minerals.
The Brazos River Authority has pointed out that
acquiring mineral leasehold interests is not acquiring
fee ownership and their view is that such acquisition
would fall under Amendment No. 1 including the
subordination of mineral interests.

The Brazos River Authority has asked for the City to
clarify the meaning of "mineral leasehold interests" as
used in the above contract and amendments so that all
parties will have the same understanding in
interpreting this contract. The proposed resolution
indicates that the City agrees that acquisition of
mineral leasehold interests being less than the fee
acquisition shall be treated under Amendment No. 1 to
the contract. Staff recommended approval.

At the November 11, 1993 City Council work session, the
National Historic Windmill Project made a presentation
to the City Council regarding their efforts to build a
windmill museum on the Texas Tech University campus.
The City Council came to a consensus to proceed with
funding this project and instructed staff to draft an
agreement between the City and the National Historic
Windmill Project, Inc. The source of funding will come
from hotel/motel tax funds. The agreement specifies
the purpose of the funding, payment schedules, and
reporting requirements.
The group is requesting $65,000 in Hotel/Motel monies
to contribute to the $225,000 cost of purchasing and
transporting 50 historical windmills to Lubbock from
Mitchell, Nebraska. The total cost of the entire
windmill museum project is estimated at $3 million; the
timeframe for completion is four years.
The state statute governing hotel/motel tax specifies
five specific areas for which hotel tax funds can be
used: acquisition, construction, and operation of a
convention center, funding of facilities and personnel
for convention registrants, promotion for convention
and visitors activities, promotion of the arts, and
historic preservation. Staff has reviewed relevant
state statutes, and believe that partial funding in the
amount of $65,000 to the National Historic Windmill
Project for the purchase of the windmill collection is
an authorized expenditure of these funds.
The current reserve balance from the Hotel/Motel Tax
Reserve Fund is as follows:
November 18, 1993
Page 1009
Total 1221 Fund Balance - 9/30/93 1221-$801,653
Reserve - Cultural Center ($500,000)
Reserve - Sculpture Lakesite ($100,000)
Reserve - Trolley ($ 37,000)
Reserve - Diamond M Collection ($ 50,000)
Unreserved Balance 9/30/93 $114,653
Details of the agreement include a reimbursement
provision if the $3 million project is not completed, a
four year timeframe within which the project should be
completed, and performance criteria for the windmill
organization to follow.
According to staff memo, the proponents indicated a
need for authorization to expend the funds when the
"first phase" of fund raising is completed. It is
their intent to purchase the windmills and transport
them to Lubbock at a total cost of $225,000. Staff
noted that this would occur before the balance of the
$3 million has been raised. However, in the event that
fund raising efforts failed to raise the remaining
amounts, the City's portion would be reimbursed after
the items purchased are sold. This is somewhat
different from staff's interpretation and is not
reflected in the contract. Should Council elect to
pursue this approach, the Council motion may instruct
staff to make the appropriate contractual revisions
prior to execution of the documents. Staff recommended
approval, with resolution of the above issue.
Motion was made by Councilmember Cooke, seconded by
Mayor Pro Tem Neugebauer to authorize Resolution #4329,
stipulating that in the event the project does not come
to fruition, the City will be reimbursed for its
contribution. Motion carried: 6 Yeas; 0 Nays.

RESOLTUION #4330
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK:
THAT the Mayor of the City of Lubbock BE and is hereby authorized and
directed to execute for and on behalf of the City of Lubbock a Temporary
Interlocal Cooperation Agreement and all related documents by and between
the City of Lubbock and Lubbock County, Texas to to cooperate in the
provision of magistrate services for the City of Lubbock, which agreement
is attached hereto, which shall be spread upon the minutes of the Council
and as spread upon the minutes of this Council shall constitute and be a

A copy of the Temporary Interlocal Cooperation Agreement between the City
of Lubbock and the County is filed with Resolution No. 4330.
Bob Cass, City Manager, presented staff comments.
For a number of years, the City of Lubbock has budgeted
approximately $70,000 in the Municipal Court budget for
the purpose of providing night magistrate services.
This arrangement grew out of an earlier discussion
between Lubbock County and the City of Lubbock
regarding the transfer of City prisoners arrested by
the City of Lubbock Police Department to the County
Sheriff's Office. State law requires that those
individuals be arraigned before the Sheriff is
obligated to take them into his custody. This
arrangement was chosen because state law requires that
a magistrate (in this case, the Municipal Court Judge)
operates the program.

Ken Johnson, Municipal Court Judge, has recently
decided to eliminate the program, which places the City
in something of a bind in that the County Sheriff is
still not obligated to take prisoners arrested by City
of Lubbock police until they have been arraigned. The
agreement before Council provides for an arrangement
whereby the City will compensate Lubbock County for
operating a magistrate program for a period of 120
days. This will give the staff time to discuss a more
permanent arrangement with Lubbock County. Staff
recommended approval of this item.
Motion was made by Councilmember Patterson, seconded by
Councilmember Hernandez to authorize Resolution #4330.
