Code, as amended (the "Act") to create a public improvement district;
WHEREAS, Stellar Land Company, Ltd. and Vintage Land Company, Ltd.
submitted and filed with the City Secretary of the City that certain Petition for the

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City (the "City Council") has received the
Petition signed by the owners of more than 50% of the appraised value of the taxable real
property and more than 50% of the area of all taxable real property within the District,
and the Petition complies with the Act and thus the City Council is authorized to consider

WHEREAS, after providing all notices required by the Act, the City Council on
the date hereof conducted a public hearing on the advisability of the improvements and
services and the creation of the District; and
WHEREAS, the City Council adjourned and closed such public hearing.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF
LUBBOCK, TEXAS, THAT:
Section 1. Advisability of the Improvements Proposed for the District: It is
advisable to create the District to provide the public improvements and services described
in the Petition and this Resolution. The public improvements will promote the interests
of the City and will confer a special benefit on the District.
Section 2. Nature of the Improvements: The general nature of the
proposed public improvements is: (i) the design, construction and maintenance of parks
and greens together with any ancillary structures, features or amenities such as
playgrounds, athletic facilities, pavilions, community facilities, bridges, walkways,
lighting, benches, trash receptacles and similar items located therein along with all
necessary grading, drainage and similar infrastructure involved in the construction of
such parks and greens; landscaping, hardscaping and irrigation; the design, construction
and maintenance of water features such as lakes, ponds and fountains; distinctive lighting
and signs; construction and improvement of pedestrian malls, passages or pathways
including pedestrian bridges; design, construction and improvement of vehicular bridges

and low water crossings; design, construction and improvement of community meeting
halls or similar buildings; design, construction and improvement of community
monuments, towers, and other amenity -type structures; acquisition and installation of art
work; design, acquisition, installation and improvement of telecommunication and
similar technology systems; and special supplemental services as defined in the Act,
together with related permits and licenses; and (ii) payment of costs associated with
developing and financing the public improvements listed in subdivision (i) including
costs of issuing bonds and funding debt service and capitalized interest reserves for such
bonds and costs of establishing, administering and operating the District.
Section 3. Estimated Cost of the Improvements: The estimated cost of the
improvements provided by the District is approximately $6,000,000.
Section 4. Boundaries: The boundaries of the District are set forth in
Exhibit A.
Section 5. Method of assessment: An assessment methodology will be
prepared that will address (i) how the costs of the public improvements financed with the
assessments are assessed against the property in the District, (ii) the assessments to be
collected each year, (iii) provisions providing for the prepayment of the assessments at
the option of the owner of any parcel, (iv) the reallocation of the assessment upon the
subdivision of a parcel, and (v) reduction of the assessments for costs savings (pursuant
to the annual review of the service plan for the District) and repayment of bonds issued to
finance the public improvements. Additionally, a report will be prepared showing the
special benefits accruing to property in the District and how the costs of the public
improvements are assessed to property on the basis of the special benefits. The result
will be that equal shares of the costs will be imposed on property similarly benefited.
In assessing the costs of the public improvements, property will be classified
based on the use of the public improvements. For example, larger homes may generate
more use of the public improvements than smaller homes. Accordingly, there may be a
classification of property on the basis of the size or type of homes that may be built on a
parcel. Costs may also be assessed on the basis of the value of the property, or upon a
combination of size or type of house and value of property. Property may also be
classified on the basis of the location of the property within the District, if some sections
of the District receive more public improvements or public improvements of greater cost
than other sections of the District.
The assessment methodology will result in each parcel paying its fair share of the
costs of the public improvements provided with the assessments based on the special
benefits received by the property from the public improvements and property equally
situated paying equal shares of the costs of the public improvements.
Section 6. Apportionment of Cost between the City and the District. The City
will not be obligated to provide any funds to finance the proposed public improvements.
All of the costs of the proposed public improvements will be paid by assessments of the

property within the District and from other sources of funds, if any, available to the
developer of the Land.
Section 7. Management of the District. To the extent allowed by law, the
City may contract with either a non-profit, or a for -profit organization, including a Public
Facilities Corporation created by the City pursuant to Chapter 303, Texas Local
Government Code, as amended, to carry out all or a part of the responsibilities of
managing the District, including the day-to-day management and administration of the
District.
Section 8. Findings. The findings set forth in the preamble of this Resolution
are hereby found to be true and correct and are incorporated in the body of this
Resolution as if copied in their entirety.
Section 9. District Authorized. The Vintage Township Public Improvement
District is hereby authorized and created as a Public Improvement District under the Act
in accordance with the findings as to the advisability of the public improvements
contained in this Resolution.

notice of the authorization for the establishment of the District by publishing a copy of
this Resolution once in a newspaper of general circulation within the City. Such
authorization shall take effect and the District shall be deemed to be established effective

as provided by law.

immediately from and after its passage and it is accordingly so resolved.
