IN REGARD to the authorization and issuance of the "City of Lubbock, Texas,
General Obligation Bonds, Series 1995A" (the "Bonds"), dated December 15, 1995 (the
"Bond Date"), in the principal amount of $6,505,000, we have examined into the legality
and validity of the issuance thereof by the City of Lubbock, Texas (the "City"), which
Bonds are issuable in fully registered form only, in denominations of $5,000 or any
integral ·multiple thereof (within a maturity), have stated maturities of February 15,
1997 through February 15, 2016, unless redeemed prior to maturity in accordance with
the terms stated on the Bonds, and bear interest on the unpaid principal amount from
the Bond Date at the rates per annum stated in the ordinance authorizing the issuance
of the Bonds (the "Ordinance"), such interest being payable on February 15 and
August 15 in each year, commencing August 15, 1996, to the registered owners thereof
shown on the registration books of the Paying Agent/Registrar on the Record Date
(stated on the face of the Bonds).
WE HAVE SERVED AS BOND COUNSEL for the City solely to pass upon the
legality and validity of the issuance of the Bonds under the Constitution and laws of
the State of Texas, and with respect to the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from
gross income for federal income tax purposes and none other. We have not been
requested to investigate or verify, and have not independently investigated or verified,
any records, data or other material relating to the financial condition or capabilities of
the City.
OUR EXAMINATIONS into the legality and validity of the Bonds included a
review of the applicable and pertinent provisions of the Constitution and laws of the
State of Texas, a transcript of certified proceedings of the City relating to the
authorization and issuance of the Bonds, including the Ordinance, customary
certifieations and opinions of officials of the City and other pertinent showings, and an
examination of the Bond executed and delivered initially by the City, which we found
to be in due form and properly executed.
BASED ON OUR EXAMINATIONS, IT IS OUR OPINION that the Bonds have
been duly authorized by the City in compliance with the Constitution and laws of the
State of Texas now in force, and the Bonds issued in compliance with the provisions of
the Drdinance are valid, legally binding and enforceable obligations of the City, payable
from the proceeds of an ad valorem tax levied, within the limitations prescribed by law,
upon ·all taxable property in the City, except to the extent that the enforceability
thereof may be affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other

Page 2 of Legal Opinion of Fulbright & Jaworski L.L.P.
Re: $6,505,000 "City of Lubbock, Texas, General Obligation Bonds, Series 1995A",
dated December 15, 1995
similar laws affecting creditors' rights or the exercise of judicial discretion in
accordance with general principles of equity.
IT IS FURTHER OUR OPINION THAT, assuming continuing compliance after
the date hereof by the City with the provisions of the Ordinance and in reliance upon
representations and certifications of the City made in a certificate of even date herewith
pertaining to the use, expenditure, and investment of the proceeds of the Bonds,
interest on the Bonds for federal income tax purposes (1) will be excludable from gross
income, as defined in section 61 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to
the date hereof, of the owners thereof pursuant to section 103 of such Code, existing
regulations, published rulings, and court decisions thereunder, and (2) will not be
included in computing the alternative minimum taxable income of individuals or, except
as hereinafter described, corporations. Interest on all tax-exempt obligations, such as
the Bonds, owned by a corporation will be included in such corporation's adjusted
current earnings for tax years beginning after 1989 for purposes of calculating the
alternative minimum taxable income of such corporations, other than an S corporation,
a qualified mutual fund, a real estate mortgage investment conduit (REMIC), or a real
estate investment trust (REIT). A corporation's alternative minimum taxable income
is the basis on which the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code
and the environmental tax imposed by section 59A of the Code is computed.
WE EXPRESS NO OPINION with respect to any other federal, state, or local
tax consequences under present law or any proposed legislation .resulting from the
receipt or accrual of interest on, or the acquisition or disposition of, the Bonds.
Ownership of tax-exempt obligations such as the Bonds may result in collateral federal
tax consequences to, among others, financial institutions, life insurance companies,
property and casualty insurance companies, certain foreign corporations doing business
in the United States, S corporations with subchapter C earnings and profits, individual
recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement Benefits, individuals otherwise
qualifying for the earned income tax credit and taxpayers who may be deemed to have
incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase or carry, or who have paid or incurred
certain expenses allocable to, tax-exempt obligations.

The Certificates are being issued pursuant to the Constitution and general laws of the State of Texas, particularly
Subchapter C of Chapter 271, Texas Local Government Code, (the Certificate of Obligation Act of 1971), as
amended and a Certificate Ordinant:e'passed by the City Council.
SECURITY AND SoURCE OF PAYMENT .•• The Bonds constitute direct and voted obligations~ ofthe City, payable
from the levy and collection of a dfrect and continuing ad valorem tax, within the limits prescribed by law, on all
taxable property located within the City.
The Certificates constitute direct obligations of the City, payable from a combination of (i) the levy and collection
of a direct and continuing ad valorem tax, within the limits prescribed by law, on all taxable property within the
City, and (ii) a limited pledge (not to.exceed $500)ofsurplus net revenues of the City's Waterworks System.
TAX RATE LIMITATION ... All taxable property within the City is subject to the assessment, levy and collection by
the City of a continuing, direct annual ad valorem tax sufficient to provide for the payment of principal of and

maximum tax rate of $2.50 per $100 Taxable Assessed Valuation. Administratively, the Attorney General of the
State ofTexas will permit allocation.of$1.50 of the $2.50 maximum tax rate for all General Obligation debt service,
as calculated at the time of issuance.
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION ... The City reserves the right, at its option, to redeem Obligations having stated
maturities on and after February 15, 2007, in whole or in part in principal amounts of $5,000 or any integral
multiple thereof, on February 15, 2006, or any date thereafter, at the par value thereof plus accrued interest to the
date of redemption. If less than all of the Obligations are to be redeemed, the City may select the maturities of
Obligations to be redeemed. If less than all the Obligations of any maturity are to be redeexped, the Paying
Agent/Registrar (or DTC while the Obligations are in Book-Entry-Only form) shall determine by lot the
Obligations, or portions thereof, within such maturity to be redeemed. If an Obligation (or any portion of the
principal sum thereof) shall have been called for redemption and notice of such redemption shall have been given,
such Obligation (or the principal amount thereof to be redeemed) shall become due and payable on such redemption
date and interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after the redemption date, provided funds for the payment of
the redemption price and accrued interest thereon are held by the Paying Agent/Registrar on the redemption date.
NOTICE OF REDEMPTION ... Not less than 30 days prior to a redemption date for the Obligations, the City shall
cause a notice of redemption to be sent by United States mail, frrst class, postage prepaid, to the registered owners
of the Obligations to be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the address of the registered owner appearing on the
registration books of the Paying Agent/Registrar at the close of business on the business day next preceding the date
of mailing such notice. ANY NOTICE SO MAILED SHALL BE CONCLUSIVELY PRESUMED TO HAVE
BEEN DULY GIVEN, WHETHER OR NOT THE REGISTERED OWNER RECEIVES SUCH NOTICE. NOTICE
HAVING BEEN SO GIVEN, THE OBLIGATIONS CALLED FOR REDEMPTION SHALL BECOME DUE AND
PAYABLE ON THE SPECIFIED REDEMPTION DATE, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THAT ANY
OBLIGATION OR PORTION THEREOF HAS NOT BEEN SURRENDERED FOR PAYMENT, INTEREST ON
SUCH OBLIGATION OR PORTION THEREOF SHALL CEASE TO ACCRUE.
BOOK-ENTRY-ONLY SYSTEM ••• The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, New York, will act as
securities depository for the Obligations. The Obligations will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in
the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee). , One fully-registered· certificate will be issued for each
maturity of the Obligations in the aggregate principal amount of each such maturity and will be deposited with
DTC.
DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization"
within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member . of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing
corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a '"clearing agency" registered
pursuant to the provisions of Section 17 A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds securities that its
participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the settlement among Participants of
securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-
entry changes in Participants' accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities
ll
certificates. Direct Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations,
and certain other organizations. DTC is owned by a number. of its Direct Participants and by the New York Stock
Exchange, Inc., the American Stock Exchange, Inc., and the National Association ofSecurities Dealers, Inc. Access
to the DTC system is also available to others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks, and trust companies that
clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly ("Indirect
Participants"). The Rules applicable to DTC and its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Purchases of Obligations under the DTC system must be made by or through DTC Participants, which will receive a
credit for such purchases on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Obligation
("Beneficial Owner'') is in turn to be recorded on the Direct or Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will
not receive written confmnation from DTC of their purchase, but Beneficial Owners are expected to receive written
confmnations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct
or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction Transfers of ownership
interest in the Obligations are to be accomplished by entries made on the book of Participants acting on behalf of
Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the
Obligations, except in the event that use of the book-entry system described herein is discontinued.
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Obligations deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the
name ofDTC's partnership nominee,Cede & Co. The deposit of Obligations with DTC and their registration in the
name of Cede & Co. effect no change in beneficial· ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial
Owners of the Obligations; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such
Obligations are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Participants will remain responsible
for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect
Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to . Beneficial Owners will be governed by
arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. will consent or vote with respect to the Obligations. Under its usual procedures, DTC
mails an Omnibus Proxy to the City as soon as possible after the Record Date (hereinafter defmed). The Omnibus
Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the
Obligations are credited on the Record Date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
Principal and interest payments on the Obligations will be made to DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct
Participants' accounts on each payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records
unless DTC has reason to believe that it will not receive payment on such payable date. Payments by Participants to
Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities
held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of
such Participant and not of DTC, the Paying Agent/Registrar or the City, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of principal and ,interest to DTC is the responsibility
of the City, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants shall be the responsibility of DTC, and
disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners shall be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect
Participants.
DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Obligations at any time by
giving reasonable notice to the City. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is
not obtained, Obligations are required to be printed and delivered.
The City may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry transfers through DTC (or a successor securities
depository). In that event, Obligations will be printed and delivered.
Use of Certain Terms in Other Sections of this Official Statement. In reading this Official Statement it should be
understood that while the Obligations are in the Book-Entry-Only System, references in other sections of this
Official Statement to registered owners should be read to include the person for which the Participant acquires an
interest in the Obligations, but (i) all rights of ownership must be exercised through DTC and the Book-Entry-Only
System, and (ii) except as described above, notices that are to be given to registered owners under the Ordinance
will be given only to DTC.
12
Information concerning DTC and the Book-Entry-Only System has been obtained from DTC and is not guaranteed
as to accuracy or completeness by, and is not to be construed as a representation by the City or the Purchasers.
PAYING AGENT/REGISTRAR ••• The initial Paying Agent/Registrar is Norwest Bank Texas, N.A., Dallas, Texas. In
the respective Ordinances, the City :retains the right to replace the Paying Agent/Registrar. The City covenants to
maintain and provide a Paying Ageut!Registrar at all times until the Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be, are
duly paid and any successor Paying Agent/Registrar shall be a commercial bank or trust company organized under
the laws of the State of Texas or other entity duly qualified and legally authorized to serve as and perform the duties
and services of Paying Agent/Registrar for the Obligations. Upon any change in the Paying Agent/Registrar for the
Bonds or Certificates, as the case ma:y be, the City agrees to promptly cause a written notice thereof to be sent to
each registered owner affected by the change by United States mail, first class, postage prepaid, which notice shall
also give the address of the new Paying Agent/Registrar.
TRANSFER, EXCHANGE AND REGISTRATION ••. In the event the Book-Entry-Only System should be discontinued
for either the Bonds or Certificates or both, the transfer and exchange of such securities on the registration books of
the Paying Agent/Registrar can be accomplished only upon presentation and surrender thereof to the Paying
Agent/Registrar and such transfer or exchange shall be without expense or service charge to the registered owner,
except for any tax or other governmental charges required to be paid with respect to such registration, exchange and
transfer. Obligations may be assigned by the execution of an assignment form on the respective Obligations or by
other instrument of transfer and assignment acceptable to the Paying Agent/Registrar. New Bonds or Certificates,
as the case may be, will be delivered by the Paying Agent/Registrar, in lieu of the Obligations being transferred or
exchanged, at the pnncipal office of the Paying Agent/Registrar, or sent by United States mail, first class, postage
prepaid, to the new registered owner or his designee. To the extent possible, new Obligations issued in an exchange
or transfer of Obligations will be delivered to the registered owner or assignee of the registered owner in not more
than three business days after the receipt of the Obligations to be canceled, and the written instrument of transfer or
request for exchange duly executed by the registered owner or his duly authorized agent, in form satisfactory to the
Paying Agent/Registrar. New Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be, registered and delivered in an exchange or
transfer shall be in any integral multiple of $5,000 for any one maturity and for a like aggregate principal amount as
the Bonds or Certificates surrendered for exchange or transfer. See "Book-Entry-Only System" herein for a
description of the system to be utilized initially in regard to ownership and transferability of the Obligations. Neither
the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be required to transfer or exchange any Obligation called for
redemption, in whole or in part, within 45 days of the date fixed for redemption; provided, however, such limitation
of transfer shall not be applicable to an exchange by the registered owner of the uncalled balance of an Obligation.
RECORD DATE FOR INTEREST PAYMENT ... The record date ("Record Date") for the interest payable .on
Obligations on any interest payment date means the close of business on the last business day of the preceding
month:
In the event of a non-payment of interest on a scheduled payment date, and for 30 days thereafter, a new record date
for such interest payment (a "Special Record Date") will be established by the Paying Agent/Registrar, if and when
funds for the payment of such interest nave been received from the City. Notice of the Special Record Date and of
the scheduled payment date of the past due interest ("Special Payment Date", which shall be 15 days after the
Special Record Date) shall be sent at least five business days prior to the Special Record Date by United States mail,
first class postage prepaid, to the address of each Holder of an Obligation appearing on the registration books of the
Paying Agent/Registrar at the close of business on the last business day next preceding the date of mailing ofsuch
notice.
BONDHOLDERS' REMEDIES ... The respective Ordinances obligates the City to annually assess and collect the ad
valorem taxes sufficient to pay principal and interest when due on the Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be. The
respective Ordinances provide no other security for the payment of the Bonds or Certificates, as the . case may be,
and, in the event of default, there are no expressed remedies for registered owners to pursue and no provision is
made·for the acceleration of the maturity of the Bonds or Certificates,·as the case may be, or for the appointment of
a trustee to protect the rights of the registered owners.
' ~.; l
Although a registered owner could presumably obtain a judgment against .the City in the event of a default in the
payment of principal or interest on the Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be, such judgment could not be
satisfied by execution against any property of the City. A registered owner could, in the event of default, .ask a· court
l3
for a mandamus or court order compelling the City to levy, assess· and collect sufficient ad valorem taxes to pay
principal and interest as it falls due on the Bonds or the Certificates, as the case may be, or to perform the City's
other obligations under the applicable Ordinance. Such remedy might need to be enforced on a periodic basis. The
enforcement of a claim for payment of principal or interest on the Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be, would
be subject to the applicable provisions of the federal bankruptcy laws and to any other similar taws affecting the
rights of creditors of political subdivisions generally.
The City is eligible to seek relief from its creditors under Chapter 9 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Although
Chapter 9 provides for the recognition of a security iriterest represented by a specifically pledged source of
revenues, the pledge of taxes in support of a general obligation of a bankrupt entity is not specifically recognized as
a security interest under Chapter 9. Chapter 9 also includes an automatic stay provision that would prohibit, without
Bankruptcy Court approval, the prosecution of any other legal action by creditors or bondholders of an entity which
has sought protection under Chapter 9. Therefore, should the City avail itself of Chapter 9 protection from
creditors, the ability to enforce any remedies against the City would be subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy
Court (which could require that the action be heard in Bankruptcy Court instead of other federal or state court); and
the Bankruptcy Code provides for broad discretionary powers of a Bankruptcy COurt in administering any
proceeding brought before it. The opinion of Bond Counsel will note that all opinions relative to the enforceability
of the Ordinance and the Bonds are qualified with respect to the customary rights of debtors relative to their
creditors.

TAX INFORMATION
AD VALOREM TAX LAw ... The ·appraisal of property within the City is the responsibility af the Lubbock Central
Appraisal District (the "Appraisal Dfstrict") .. Excluding agricultural and open-space land. which may be taxed on the
basis of productive capacity, the Appraisal District is required under the Property Tax Code to appraise all property
within the Appraisal District on the l!!asis of 100% of its market value and is prohibited from applying any assessment
ratios. The value placed upon property within the Appraisal District is subject to review by an Appraisal Review
Boar(i, consisting of three members appointed by the Board of Directors of the Appraisal District. The Appraisal
District is required to review the value of property within the Appraisal District at least every three years. The City may
require annual review at its own expense, and is entitled to challenge the determination of appraised value of property
within the City by petition filed with the Appraisal Review Board.
Reference is made to the V.T.C.A., Property Tax Code, for identification of property subject to taxation; property
exempt or which may be exempted from taxation, if claimed; the appraisal of property for ad valorem taxation
purposes; and the procedures and limitations applicable to the levy and collection of ad valorem taxes.
Article VIII of the State Constitution ("Article VIII") and State law provide for certain exemptions from property taxes,
the valuation of agricultural and open-space lands at productivity value, and the exemption of certain personal property
from ad valorem taxation.
Under Section 1-b, Article VIII, and State law, the governing body of a political subdivision, at its option, may grant:
(1) An exemption of not less than $3,000 of the market value of the residence homestead of persons 65 years of age or
older and the disabled from all ad valorem taxes thereafter levied by the political subdivision; (2) An exemption of up
to 20% of the market value of residence homesteads. The minimum exemption under this provision is $5,000.
In the case of residence homestead exemptions granted under Section 1-b, Article VIII, ad valorem taxes may
continue to be levied against the value of homesteads exempted where ad valorem taxes have previously been
pledged for the payment of debt if cessation of the levy would impair the obligation of the contract by which the
debt was created.
State law and Section 2, Article VIII, mandate an additional property tax exemption for disabled veterans or the
surviving spouse or children of a deceased veteran who died while on active duty in the armed forces; the exemption
applies to either real or personal property with the amount of assessed valuation exempted ranging from $1 ,500 to a
maximum of$3,000.
Article VIII provides that eligible owners of both agricultural land (Section 1-d) and open-space land (Section 1-d-1 ),
including open-space land devoted to fann or ranch purposes or open-space land devoted to timber production, may
elect to have such property appraised for property taxation on the basis of its productive capacity. The same land may
not be qualified under both Section 1-d and 1-d-1. ·
Nonbusiness personal property, such as automobiles or light trucks, are exempt from ad valorem taxation unless the
governing body of a political subdivision elects to tax this property. Boats owned as nonbusiness property are exempt
from ad valorem taxation.
Article VIII, Section 1-j, provides for .. freeport property'' to be exempted from ad valorem taxation. Freeport property
is defmed as goods detained in TexaS for 175 days or less for the purpose of assembly, storage, manufacturing,
processing or fabrication. Decisions to continue to tax may be reversed in the future; decisions to exempt freeport
property are not subject to reversal.
The City and the other taxing bodies within its territory may agree to jointly create tax increment financing zones, under
which the tax values on property in the zone are "frozen" at the value of the property at the time of creation of the zone.
The City also may enter into tax abatement agreements to encourage economic development. Under the agreements, a
property owner agrees to construct certain improvements on its property. The City in turn agrees not to levy a tax on all
or part of the increased value attributable to the improvements until the expiration of the agreement The abatement
agreement could last for a period of up to 10 years.
15
-.
EFFECTIVE TAX RATE AND ROLLBACK TAX RATE .•. By each September I or as soon thereafter as practicable,
the City Council adopts a tiiX rate per $100 taxable value for the current year. The tax rate ,consists of tWo
components: (1) a rate for funding of maintenance arid operation expenditures and (2) a rate for debt service.
Under the Property Tax Code, the City must. annually calculate and publicize its "effective tax rate" and ''rollback
tax rate". The City Council may not adopt a tax rate that exceeds the lower of the rollback tax rate or 103% ofthe
effective tax rate until it has held a public hearing on the proposed increase following notice to the taxpayers and
otherwise complied with the Property.Tax Code. If the adopted tax rate exceeds the rollback tax rate the qualified
voters of the City by petition may require that an election be held to determine whether or not to reduce the tax rate
adopted for the current year to the rollback tax rate.
"Effective tax rate" means the rate that will produce last year's total tax levy {adjusted) from this year's total taxable
values {adjusted). "Adjusted" means lost values are not included in the calculation of last year's taxes and new
values are not included in this year's taxable values.
"Rollback tax rate" means the rate that will produce last year's maintenance and operation tax levy {adjusted) from
this year's values (adjusted) multiplied by 1.08 plus a rate that will produce this year's debt service from this year's
values {unadjusted) divided by the anticipated tax collection rate.
The Property Tax Code provides that certain cities and counties in the State may submit a proposition to the voters
to authorize up to an additional one-half cent sales tax on retail sales of taxable items. If the additional tax is levied,
the effective tax rate and the rollback tax rate calculations are required to be offset by the revenue that will be
generated by the sales tax in the current year.
· ,...... Reference is made to the Property Tax Code for defmitive requirements for the levy and collection of ad valorem
taxes and the calculation of the various defmed tax rates.
,......
PROPERTY AssESS!\<IENT AND TAX PAYMENT ... Property within the City is generally assessed as of January 1 of
each year. Business inventory may, at the option of the taxpayer, be assessed as of September 1. Oil and gas
reserves are assessed on the basis of a valuation process which uses an average of the daily price of oil and gas for
the prior year. Taxes become due October 1 of the same year, and become delinquent on February 1 of the
following year. Taxpayers 65 years old or older are permitted by State law to pay taxes on homesteads in four
installments with the first due on February 1 of each year and the fmal installment due on August 1.
PENALTIES AND INTEREST . • • Charges for penalty and interest on the unpaid balance of delinquent taxes are made
as follows:
Cumulative Cumulative
Month Penalty Interest Total
February 6% 1 % 7%
March 7 2 9
April 8 3 11
May 9 4 13
June 10 s lS
July 12 6 18
After July, penalty remains at 12%, and interest increases at the rate of 1% each month. In addition, if an account is
delinquent in July,a 15% attorney's collection fee is added to the total tax penalty and interest charge. Under
certain circumstances, taxes which become delinquent on the homestead of a taxpayer 65 years old or older incur a
penalty of 8% per annum with no additional penalties or interest assessed. In general, property subject to the City's
lien may be sold, in whole or in parcels, pursuant to court order to collect the amounts due. Federal law does not
allow for the collection of penalty and interest against an estate in bankruptcy. Federal bankruptcy law provides
that an automatic stay of action by creditors and other entities, including governmental units, goes into effect with
the filing of any petition in .bankruptcy. The automatic stay prevents governmental units from foreclosing on
,..., property and prevents liens for post-petition taxes from attaching to property and obtaining secured creditor status
unless, in either case, an order lifting the stay is obtained from the bankruptcy court. In many cases post-petition
taxes are paid as an administrative expense of the estate in bankruptcy or by order of the bankruptcy court.

TAX INCREMENT DISTRICI .... Together with othertaxing units, the City participates in a Tax Increment District
(''TID") pursuant to Article 1066e, V.T.C.S. The TID covers an approximately 0.71 square-mile area which includes
part of the central business district, the Overton Addition and the J:lroadway Corridor of the City. The base taxable
values of the TID are frozen at the level of taxable values for 1986, the year of creation. Any ad valorem taxes relating
to growth of the TID's tax base above the frozen base may be used only to finance improvements within the TID. The
tax base for the TID for 1986 was $98,180,307; the 1995 taxable assessed value of property in the TID is less than the
tax base and there is no current tax increment.

TABLE 7 -ESTIMATED OVERLAPPING DEBT
Expenditures of the various taxing entities within the territory of the City are paid out of ad valorem taxes levied by
such entities on properties within the City. Such entities are independent of the. City and may incur borrowings to
fmance their expenditures. This statement of direct and estimated overlapping ad valorem tax bonds ("Tax Debt'')
was developed from information contained in "Texas Municipal Reports" published by· the Municipal Advisory
Council of Texas and from the Lubbock Central Appraisal District. Except for the amounts relating to the City, the
City has not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of such information, and no person should rely
upon such information as being accurate or complete. Furthermore, certain of the entities listed may have issued
additional bonds since the date hereof, and such entities may have programs requiring the issuance of substantial
amounts of additional bonds, the amount of which cannot be determined. The following table reflects the estimated
share of overlapping Tax Debt of the City.

(1} Through Fiscal Year Ended 9-30-91 it was the City's policy each Fiscal Year to transfer from Water Enterprise Fund surplus
to the General Fund an amount at least equivalent to debt service requirements on Waterworks System General Obligation Debt.
Beginning with Fiscal Year Ending 9-30-92 the City budgeted and commenced a multi-year planned shift to direct support of
Waterworks System General Obligation Debt by transfer from Water Enterprise Fund surplus to the General Obligation Interest
and Sinking Fund; for Fiscal Year Ending 9-30-96 $3,876,045 is a budgeted transfer to the Interest and Sinking Fund for
Waterworks System General Obligation debt service. This staged shift is anticipated to continue through Fiscal Year Ending 9-30-
97 with total Waterworks System General Obligation debt service for each year thereafter to be provided by direct transfer from
Water Enterprise Fund surplus.
The multi-year staged shift is necessary to avoid exceeding the City's "rollback tax rate" (see "Tax Rate Limitation") as a portion
of the Interest and Sinking Fund Tax Rate formerly levied for Waterworks System General Obligation debt service is shifted each
year to the General Fund tax rate. The effect of this reallocation, beginning with Fiscal Year Ending 9-30-92, can be seen in the
distribution of the Tax Rate under "Tax Rate, Levy and Collection History" and in "Interest and Sinking Fund Budget Projection".
The City has no outstanding revenue bonds payable from a lien on the net revenues of the Waterworks System.

Legislature and adopted by City firefighters, by vote of the department, in 1941. Firefighters are not covered by
Social Security.
The Fund is governed by seven trustees, three firefighters, two outside trustees (appointed by the other trustees), the
Mayor or his representative and the chief financial officer or his representative. Execution of the act is monitored
by the Firemen's Pension Commissioner, who is appointed by the Governor.
Benefits of retired. frremen. 8re determined on a "formula" Or a ,;fmal salary" plan. ActWrrial reviews ar.~ performed
every two years, and the fund is audited annually. Firefighters contribute 11% of full salary ·into the fund and the
City must contribute a like amount; however, the city contributes on a basis of the percentage of salary which is a
ration adjusted annually that bears the same relationship to the frrefighter's contribution rate that the City's rate paid
into the Texas Municipal Retirement System and FICA bears to the rate other employees pay into the Texas
Municipal Retirement System and FICA. The City's contribution rate for 1995 was 15.42%.

City the power to impose and levy a 1% Local Sales and Use Tax 'within the City; the proceeds are credited to the

the City approved the imposition of an additional sales and use tax of one-eighth of a cent as authorized by
VATCS, Tax Code, Chapter 323, as amended. Collection for the additional tax commenced in October, 1995
with the proceeds from the one-eighth cent sales tax designated for the use and benefit of the City to replace
property tax revenues lost as a result of the adoption of the tax; the revenues ·of the· tax are not pledged to the
payment of the Obligations. Collections and enforcements are effected through the offices of the Comptroller of

Basis afAccounting ... The accounting policies of the City confonn to generally accepted accounting principles of
the Governmental Accounting Standards Board and program standards adopted by the Government Finance
Officer's Association of the United states and Canada ("GFOA"). The GFOA bas awarded a Certificate of
Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Lubbock for each of the fiscal years ended
September 30, 1984 through September 30, 1993. The City's 1994 report bas been submitted to GFOA to
determine its eligibility for another certificate.
General Fund Balance ... The City's objective is to achieve and maintain a General Fund balance equivalent to two
months operating costs of the General Fund Budget. This should be sufficient to provide fmancing for necessary
projects, unanticipated contingencies, and fluctuations in anticipated revenues.
Debt Service Fund Balance ... A reasonable debt service fund balance is maintained in order to compensate for
unexpected contingencies.
32
Budgetary Procedures ... The City follows these procedures in establishing operating budgets:
I) Prior to August 1, the Cit}.' Manager submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget for the .fiscal
year commencing the following October 1. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the
means of fmancing them.
2) Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
3) Prior to October I, thebudget is legally enacted through passage of an ordinance.
4) The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between departments and fundS. Expenditures
may not legally exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level.
5) Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the
Convention and Tourism,. Cri:tninal Investigation, and Capital Projects Funds. Budgets are adopted on an
annual basis. Formal budgetary integration is not employed for Debt Service funds because effective budgetary
control is alternatively achieved through general obligation bond indenture and other contract provisions.
6) The Budget ·for the General Fund is adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAJ\.P'').
7) Appropriations for the General Fund lapse at year end.' Unencumbered balances for the Capital Projects
Funds continue as authority for subsequent period expenditures.
8) Budgetary comparison is presented for the General Fund in the combined financial statement section of the
Comprehensive Annual financial Report.
The City has also received the GFOA's award for Distinguished Budget Presentation for the following budget years:
October I, 1983-88 and October I, 1990-94. The City will submit the current budget to the GFOA to determine its
eligibility for another award.
Insurance ... Except for Airport liability insurance, the City is self-insured for liability, workers' compensation, and
health benefits coverage. Insurance policies are maintained with large deductibles for fire and extended coverage
and boiler coverage. An Insurance Fund has been established. in the Internal Service Fund to account for insurance
programs and budgeted transfers are made to this fund based upon estimated payments for claim losses.

INVESTMENT POLICIES ... Under Texas law, the City is required to invest its funds under written investment
policies that primarily emphasize safety of principal and liquidity and that address investment diversification, yield,
maturity, and the quality and capability of investment management, and all City funds must be invested in
investments that protect principal, are consistent with the operating requirements of the City, and yield the highest
possible rate of return. Under Texas law, City investments must be made "with judgement and care, under
prevailing circumstances, that a person of prudence, discretion, and intelligence would exercise in the management
of the person's own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of capital and the
probable income to be derived." No person may invest City funds without express written authority from the City
Treasurer.
The City maintains the minimum amount of cash in its bank accounts to . meet daily needs, and to protect its
principal while receiving the highest yield possible from investing all temporary excess cash.
There are flve objectives which the Investment Policy addresses. The flrst objective is to conform to all Federal,
State, and other legal requirements. The second objective of the investment policy is to preserve the capital in the
overall portfolio. Each investment transaction seeks to frrst ensure that capital losses are avoided, whether they be
from securities defaults or erosion of market value. The third objective is to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet the
City's needs. The City is required to maintain 10% of its portfolio in instruments that mature in 180 days or less.
34
The fourth objective is diversify to avoid incurring unreasonable risks regarding securitii::s ovvned. The fifth ~ ' ' .
objective is to obtain the highest yield on investments within the other four objectives. 1lte: day to day investment
activities are performed by jhe City's Assistant Treasurer.
The City may invest to the following limits as a percentage of its total portfolio:
I 00% in United States Treasury obligations
50% in Certificates of Deposit
400/o in Federal Instrumentalities or Agencies
300/o in Repurchase Agreements collateralized by Federal Instrumentalities, or
100% in Repurchase Agreements collateralized by United States Treasury obligations
Investments in a qualifying Investment Pool (in accordance with Resolution dated May 28, t992) should be limited
to no more than 5% of the total assets in the pooJ.
Diversification protects interest income from the volatility of interest rates and the avoidance of undue concentration
of assets in a specific maturity sector; therefore, portfolio maturities are staggered. Securities are also selected
which provide for stability of income. The asset allocation of the portfolio is flexible depending upon the outlook
for the economy and the securities market. Should conditions warrant, these guidelines can be exceeded by
approval of the Investment Review Committee.

highlights the substantive changes to the Act:
I) Specifically addressing the maximum allowable stated maturity of any individual investment and the weighted
average maturity of each internal pool in the adopted Investment Policy.

TAXMAITERS
TAX EXEMPTION ••. The delivery of the Obligations is subject to the opinions of Bond Counsel to the effect that
interest on the Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be, for federal income tax purposes (1) will be excludable
from gross income, as defined in section 61 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended to the date of such
opinion (the "Code"), pursuant to section 103 of the Code and existing regulations, published rulings, and court
decisions, and (2) will not be included in computing the alternative minimum taxable income of the owners thereof
who are individuals or, except as hereinafter described, corporations. A form of Bond Counsel's opinions is
reproduced as Appendix C. The statute, regulations, rulings, and court decisions on which such opinion is based are
subject to change.
Interest on all tax-exempt obligations, including the Obligations, owned by a corporation will be included in such
corporation's adjusted cUITent earnings for tax years beginning after 1989, for purposes of calculating the alternative
minimum taxable income of such corporation, other than an S corporation, a qualified mutual fund, a real estate
investment trust (REIT), or a real estate mortgage investment conduit (REMIC). A corporation's alternative
minimum taxable income is the basis on which the alternative minimum tax imposed by Section 55 of the Code and
the environmental tax imposed by Section 59 A ofthe Code will be computed.
In rendering the foregoing opinions, Bond Counsel will rely upon representations and certifications of the City
made in a certificate dated the date of delivery of the Obligations pertaining to the use, expenditure, and investment
of the proceeds of the Obligations and will assume continuing compliance by the City with the provisions of the
Ordinance subsequent to the issuance of the Obligations. The respective Ordinances contain covenants by the City
with respect to, among other matters, the use of the proceeds of the Obligations and the facilities fmanced therewith
by persons other than state or local governmental units, the manner in which the proceeds of the Obligations are to
be invested, the periodic calculation and payment to the United States Treasury of arbitrage "profits" from the
investment of the proceeds, and the reporting of certain information to the United States Treasury. Failure to
comply with any of these covenants would cause interest on the Obligations to be includable in the gross income of
the owners thereof from date of the issuance of the Obligations.
Except as described above, Bond Counsel expresses no other opinion with respect to any other federal, state or local
tax consequences under present law, or proposed legislation, resulting from the receipt or accrual of interest on, or
the acquisition or disposition of, the Obligations. Prospective purchasers of the Bonds or Certificates, as the case
may be, should be aware that the ownership of tax-exempt obligations may result in collateral federal tax
consequences to, among others, fmancial institutions, life insurance companies, property and casualty insurance
companies, certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States, S corporations with subchapter C
earnings and profits, individual recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits, individuals otherwise
qualifying for the earned income tax credit, and taxpayers who may be deemed to have incUITed or continued
indebtedness to purchase or carry, or who have paid or incurred certain expenses allocable to, tax-exempt
obligations. Prospective purchasers should consult their own tax advisors as to the applicability of these
consequences to their particular circumstances.
TAX ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF DISCOUNT AND PREMIUM ON CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS ... The initial public
offering price of certain Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be, (the "Discount Obligations") may be less than the
amount payable on such Obligations at maturity. An amount equal to the difference between the initial public
offering price of a Discount Obligation (assuming that a substantial amount of the Discount Obligations of that
maturity are sold to the public at such price) and the amount payable at maturity constitutes original issue discount
to the initial purchaser of such Discount Obligation. A portion of such original issue discount allocable to the
holding period of such Discount Obligation by the initial purchaser will, upon the disposition of such Discount
Obligation (including by reason of its payment at maturity), be treated as interest excludable from gross income,
rather than as taxable gain, for federal income tax purposes, on the same terms and conditions as those for other
interest on the Obligations described above under "Tax Exemption." Such interest is considered to be accrued
actuarially in accordance with the constant interest method over the life of a Discount Obligation, taking into
account the semiannual compounding of accrued interest, at the yield to maturity on such Discount Obligation and
generally will be allocated to an original purchaser in a different amount from the amount of the payment
denominated as interest actually received by the original purchaser during the tax year.
However, such interest may be required to be taken into account in determining the alternative minimum taxable
income of a corporation, for purposes of calculating a corporation's alternative minimum tax and the environmental
38
tax imposed by Sections 55 and 59A, respectively, of the Code, and the amount of the branch:profrts tax applicable
to certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States, even though there will not be a corresponding
cash payment. In addition, the accrual of such interest may result in certain other collateral' federal income tax
consequences to, among others, financial institutions, life insurance companies, property· and casualty insuranee
companies, S corporations with "subchapter C" earnings and profits, individual recipients of Social Security or
Railroad Retirement benefits, individuals otherwise qualifying for earned income tax credit, and taxpayers who may
be deemed to have incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase or carry, or who have paid or incurred certain
expenses allocable to, tax-exempt obligations. Moreover, in the event of the redemption, sale or other taxable
disposition of a Discount Obligation by the initial owner prior to maturity, the amount realiZed by such owner in
excess of the basis of such Discount Obligation in the hands of such owner (adjusted upward by· the portion of the
original issue discount allocable to the period for which such Discount Obligation was held) is includable in gross
income.
Owners of Discount Obligations should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the determination of
accrued original issue discount on Discount Obligations for federal income tax purposes and with respect to the state
and local tax consequences of owning and disposing of Discount Obligations. It is possible that, under applicable
provisions governing determination of state and local income taxes, accrued interest on Discount Obligations may
be deemed to be received in the year of accrual even though there will not be a corresponding cash payment.
The initial public offering price of certain of the Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be, (the "Premium
Obligations") may be greater than the amount payable on such Obligations at maturity. An amount equal to the
difference between the initial public offering price of a Premium Obligation (assuming that a substantial amount of
the Premium Obligations of that maturity are sold to the public at such price) and the amount payable at maturity
constitutes premium to the initial purchaser of such Premium Obligations. The basis for federal income tax
purposes of a Premium Obligation in the hands of such initial purchaser must be reduced each . year by the
amortizable bond premium, although no federal income tax deduction is allowed as a result of such reduction in
basis for amortizable bond premium. Such reduction in basis will increase the amount of any gain (or decrease the
amount of any loss) to be recognized for federal income tax purposes upon a sale or other taxable disposition of a
Premium Obligation. The amount of premium which is amortizable each year by an initial purchaser is determined
by using such purchaser's yield to maturity.
Purchasers of the Premium Obligations should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the determination
of amortizable bond premium on Premium Obligations for federal income tax purposes and with respect to the state
and local tax consequences of owning and disposing of Premium Obligations.

OTHER INFORMATION
RATINGS
The presently outstanding tax supported debt of the City is rated "Aa" by Moody's and "AA" by S&P. Applications
for contract ratings on this issue have been made to Moody's and S&P. An explanation of the significance of such
ratings may be obtained from the company furnishing the rating. The ratings reflect only the respective views of
such organizations and the City makes no representation as to the appropriateness of the ratings. There is no
assurance that such ratings will continue for any given period oftime or that they will not be revised downward or
withdrawn entirely by either or both of such rating companies, if in the judgment of either or both companies,
circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of such ratings may have an adverse effect
on the market price of the Obligations.
LITIGATION
It is the opinion of the City Attorney and City Staff that there is no pending litigation against the City that would
have a material adverse fmancial impact upon the City or its operations.
REGISTRATION AND QUALIF1CATION OF OBLIGATIONS FOR SALE
The sale of the Obligations has not been registered under the Federal Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in reliance
upon the exemption provided thereunder by Section 3(a)(2); and the Obligations have not been qualified under the
Securities Act of Texas in reliance upon various exemptions contained therein; nor have the Obligations been
qualified under the securities acts of any jurisdiction. The City assumes no responsibility for qualification of the
Obligations under the securities laws of any jurisdiction in which the Obligations may be sold, assigned, pledged,
hypothecated or otherwise transferred. This disclaimer of responsibility for qualification for sale or other
disposition of the Obligations shall not be construed as an interpretation of any kind with regard to the availability
of any exemption from securities registration provisions.
LEGAL INVESTMENTS AND ELIGIBILITY TO SECURE PuBLIC FUNDS IN TEXAS
Section 9 of the Bond Procedures Act provides that the Obligations "shall constitute negotiable instruments, and are
investment securities governed by Chapter 8, Texas Uniform Commercial Code, notwithstanding any provisions of
law or court decision to the contrary, and are legal and authorized investments for banks, savings banks, trust
companies, building and loan associations, savings and loan associations, insurance companies, fiduciaries, and
trustees, and for the sinking fund of cities, towns, villages, school districts, and other political subdivisions or public
agencies of the State of Texas". The Obligations are eligible to secure deposits of any public funds of the state, its
agencies and political subdivisions, and are legal security for those deposits to the extent of their market value. For
political subdivisions in Texas which have adopted investment policies and guidelines in accordance with the Public
Funds Investment Act (V.T.C.A., Government Code, Chapter 2256), the Obligations may have to be assigned a
rating of "A" or its equivalent as to investment quality by a national rating agency before such obligations are
eligible investments for sinking funds and other public funds. No review by the City has been made of the laws in
other states to determine whether the Obligations are legal investments for various institutions in those states.
LEGAL OPINIONS AND No-LITIGATION CERTIFICATE
The City will furnish a complete transcript of proceedings had incident to the authorization and issuance of the
Obligations, including the unqualified approving legal opinions of the Attorney General of Texas approving the
Initial Bond or Certificate, as the case may be, and to the effect that.the Bonds or Certificates, as the case may be,
are valid and legally binding obligations of the City, and based upon examination of such transcript of proceedings,
the approving legal opinion of Bond Counsel, to like effect and to the effect that the interest on the Bonds or
Certificates, as the case may be, will be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes under
Section 103(a) of the Code, subject to the matters described under "Tax Exemption" herein, including the alternative
minimum tax on corporations. The customary closing papers, including a certificate to the effect that no litigation
of any nature has been flied or is then pending to restrain the issuance and delivery of the Obligations, or which
would affect the provision made for their payment or security, or in any manner questioning the validity of said
Obligations will also be furnished. Bond Counsel was not requested to participate, and did not take part, in the
preparation of the Notice of Sale and Bidding Instructions, the Official Bid Form and the Official Statement, and
40

information contained therein, except that, in its capacity as Bond Counsel, such fmn has reviewed the information

Reese Air Force Base (•Reese•), located adjacent to the western boundary of Lubbock, is an undergradllate pilot training as the
64th Flying Training Wing. The Base covers over 3,000 acres and has approximately 1,440 military and 1,000 civilian and
contract personnel.
On March 1, 1995, the Secretary of the Air Force announced that Reese was included in the list of bases recommended for closure
submitted to the Base Closure and Realignment Commission ("BRAC"). BRAC reevaluated Reese along with all other
undergraduate pilot training bases, however, Reese was included in the final list of bases recommended for closure. The final
recommendation was submitted to the President in July, 1995. The President and Congress have approved the recommendations
fromBRAC.
As a result, the City is developing a re-use plan for the facilities. Reese Air Force Base represents approximately 2.6% of the local
work force. While closure of the base will not have a positive impact on the Lubbock economy, the current growth in other
economic sectors should minimize or neutralize closure of the base. In addition, there could be a positive economic impact from
the re-use of the base.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
The Honorable David R. Langston
Mayor of Lubbock
Members of City Council
City of Lubbock, Texas
We have audited the accompanying general purpose financial statements of the City of Lubbock,
Texas, as of September 30, 1994, and for the year then ended, as listed in the Table of Contents.
These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the City's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and
Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of t:rulterial misstatement. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimate made by management, as well as evaluating the overall general purpose financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the City of Lubbock, Texas, as of September 30, 1994,
and the results of its operations and the cash flows of its proprietary fund types for the year then
ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note III N. to the general purpose financial statements, in 1994 the City changed
its method of accounting for closure and postclosure care costs of municipal landfills to conform
with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 18.
As discussed in Note VI to the general purpose financial statements, in 1994 the City restated its
beginning fund balance/retained earnings to conform with Governmental Accounting Standards
Board Statement No. 14.

NOTE 1. .. SUl\fMARY OF SIGNIFICANT~ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of the City of Lubbock, Lubb~~k County, Texas (City) have been prepared in
conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as applicable to governmental units.
The Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the acknowledged standard-sening body for
establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. With respect to proprietary
activities, including component units, the City has adopted GASB Statement No. 20. "Accounting and
Financial Reponing for Proprietary Funds and Other Governmental Entities that use Proprietaf} Fund
Accounting." The City has elected to apply all applicable GASB pronouncements as well as Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) pronouncements and Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opmions.
issued on or before November 30. 1989 unless those pronouncements connict with or contradict GASB
pronouncements. The more significant accounting policies are described below.
A. REPORTING ENTITY:
In June, 1991, the GASB issued Statement No. 14. "The Financial Reporting Entity". In accordance
with this statement, the City has presented those entities which comprise the primal}' government
along with its discretely presented Component Units in the fiscal year 1994 general purpose financial
statements. The effect of the changes on fund equity due to the adoption of GASB Statement No. 14
is included in Note VI.
The City is a municipal corporation governed by a Mayor-Council form of government. As required
by GAAP. the general purpose financial statements present the reporting entity which consists of the
primary government. organizations for which the primary government is financially accountable and
other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the primary
government are such that exclusion could cause the City's general purpose financial statements to be
misleading or incomplete.
BLENDED COMPONENT UNITS
The following Component Units have been presented as blended Component Units because the
Component Unit's governing body is substantially the same as the governing body of the City, or the
Component Unit pro\·ides services almost entirely to the primary government.
The Urban Rtmewal Agency (URA) was formed to provide low-income housing to qualifying
recipients. Houses are purchased with Community Development Block Grant funds and offered at
below-market interest rate mortgages to qualifying recipients. As loans are repaid. monies are
accumulated to purchase additional housing. The Mayor, with the consent of the City Council. is
empowered by law to appoint the nine member board to govern operations. The agency is funded by .
appropriations from the City•s Community Development Block Grant. While URA is legally
separate from the City, it is reponed as if it were pan of the primary government because it provides
services almost entirely to the primary government. Financial activity is included in the Community
Dc:velopment Expendable Trust Fund for fiscal year 1994. Prior to fiscal year 1994, URA did not
meet the criteria for inclusion in the City's reporting entity (See Note VI).
Lubbock Arts Alliance Grants Review Committee is a subcommittee of the Lubbock Arts
Alliance, Inc. This committee recommends projects to be. funded with hotel-motel tax proceeds for
approval by the City Council. This committee is funded by appropriations from the City's share of
hotel-motel tax proceeds and the financial activity is included in the Arts and Related Items Special
Revenue Fund.
DISCRETELY PRESENTED COMPONENT UNITS
The Component Unit columns in the combined financial statements include the financial data of the
City·s other Component Units. They are reported in a separate column to emphasize that they are
legally separate from the City. The following Component Units are included in the reporting entity
because the primary government is financially accountable and is able to impose its will on the
organization. A primary government has the ability to impose its will if it can significantly influence
operations and/or activities of an organization.

B. BASIS OF PRESENTATION -FUND ACCOUNTING
The financial transactions of the City are recorded in individual funds and account groups. Each fund
is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets,
liabilities. reserves, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures/expenses.
The various funds are classified into three categories: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary. The
following fund types and account groups are used by the City:
GOVERNMENTAL FUND TYPES
General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial
transactions except those required to he accounted for in another fund.
Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (other than
special assessments, expendable trusts, or major capital projects) that are legally restricted to
expenditures for specified purposes.
Debt Service Funds are used to account for the accumulation of financial resources for the payment
· of interest and principal on the general long-term debt of the City.
Capital Project Funds are used to account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or
construction of major capital facilities (other than those financed by Proprietary Funds or Trust
Funds).
PROPRIETARY FUND TYPES
Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations of the City (a) that are financed and operated in
a manner similar to private business enterprises, where the intent is to provide goods or services to the

user charges; or (b) where the governing body has decided that periodic determination of revenues

management control. accountability, or other purposes.
Internal Service Fund is used to account for the financing of goods and services provided b~ one
department or agency to other departments or agencies of the City, or to other governmems. on a user
charge basis.
FIDUCIARY FUND TYPES
Transactions related to assets held by the City in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals.
private organizations, other governments and other funds. are accounted for in fiducia~ fund types.
Fiduciary fund types are comprised of:
Expendable Trust Funds account for assets received and expended by the City as trustee in
essentially the same manner as governmental fund types.
Agency Funds are used to account for assets held h~ the City as a custodial trustee. They are
accoumed for on the modified accrual basis of accounting, but do not have a measurement focus. as
agency funds do not account for operations.
ACCOUNT GROUPS
General Fixed Assets Account Group represents a summary of the fixed assets of the City. other
than those fixed assets reported in the Proprietary Funds. Capital expenditures of the Capital Projects
Fund are the primary source from which the detailed records of the general fixed assets account group
are developed. Capital expenditures are carried in this account group as construction in progress until
the projects are completed and are then capitalized by function and classification.
Infrastructure fixed assets such as streets, highways. bridges, sidewalks. street lighting. traffic poles
and signals.-and storm sewers, are accounted for in the General Fixed Assets Account Group and
reponed in the Schedule of General Fixed Assets.
General fixed assets are not depreciated and are recorded at historical cost at the time of acquisition.
Donated assets are recorded at their fair market value on the date donated.
General Long-Term Debt Account Group is used to account for the City's liability for general long-
term debt presently consisting of general obligation bonds, certificates of obligation. long-term notes
payable, long-term leases. and obligations for employee vacation. sick-leave benefits, insurance
claims and rebatablc arbitrage. other than those reported in the Proprietary Funds.
C. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The modified accrual basis of accounting and the flow of current financial resources is followed for
the governmental fund types, special revenue funds. debt service funds. capital project funds.
expendable trust funds. and agency funds. Under this basis of accounting. expenditures. other than
interest on long-term debt in the Debt Service Fund which is recorded when due, are recorded when
the liability is incurred. Revenues are recorded when received in cash unless susceptible to accrual.
Revenues under the modified accrual basis must be both measurable and available to finance current
year appropriations. Revenues considered to be susceptible. to accrual under the modified accrual
basis are property and sales taxes. cenain grant revenue and investment income. The accrual basis of
accounting and the flow of economic resources is followed in 'the enterprise funds and internal service
funds. Under this method of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are
recorded when a liability is incurred.

September 30, 1994
NOTE I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
C. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING tCONTINUEDl
Governmental fund types and expendable trust funds are accounted for using a current financial
resources measurement focus. Under the current financial resources measurement focus. only current
assets and current liabilities are included on the balance sheet. Net current assets or fund balance is
considered a measure of available spendable resources. The flow of financial resources measurement
focus is concerned primarily with the measure of interperiod equity (e.g. whether current year
revenues were sufficient to pay for. current year services).
Enterprise funds and internal service funds are accounted for using an economic resource
measurement focus. All assets and liabilities including fixed assets and long-term debt are included
on the balance sheet. Fund equity is segregated into its contributed capital and retained earnings
components. Proprietary fund type operating statements present increases (revenues) and decreases
(expenses J in net total assets.
D. BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING
Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles for
all governmental funds except for special revenue funds and capital project funds. which adopt
project-length budgets. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year end.
Annually, the City Manager submits to City Council a proposed operating budget for the upcoming
fiscal year. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments, and the budget is legally
enacted through passage of an ordinance by the City Council.
Budgetary control is maintained by department and by the following category of expenditures:
personnel services. supplies. maintenance, other charges, and capital outlay. All budget supplements
must be approved by the City Council. Administrative transfers, and increases or decreases in
accounts within categories may be made by management as long as expenditures do not exceed
budgeted appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations for budgeted funds lapse at year end.
Budgeted amounts shown are from the revised budget, adopted by resolution on September 9, 1994.
During the year, the budget was revised to reflect a 1.50% increase in total revenues and I. 16%
increase in total operating expenses/expenditures from the original budget. Each year, in accordance
with State law, the City Council sets an ad valorem tax levy for a sinking fund (General Obligation
Debt Service) which with cash and investments in the fund, would be sufficient to pay all the bonded
indebtedness and interest due in the following fiscal year.
E. ENCUMBRANCES
At the end of the year. encumbrances for which goods and/or services have not been received are
canceled. At the beginning of the next year, prior year encumbrances and related appropriations are
re-established through a budget amendment. Re-established encumbrances at October I, 1994 for
governmental funds of $1.058,333 are as follows:
General Fund
Special Revenue Funds
Capital Projects Funds
Expendable Trust Funds

F. ASSETS. LIABILITIES AND FUND EQUlTY
Equity in Pooled Cash and Investments· A "Pooled Cash" concept is used to maintain the cash and
investment accounts in the accounting records. Under this method, all ·cash is pooled for inYestment
purposes and each fund has an equity in the pooled cash amount and earnings therefrom. All amounts
included in the pooled cash and investment accounts are considered to be cash and cash equi\alcnts.
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers cash and cash equivalents (including
restricted cash and cash equivalents) to be currency on hand. demand deposits with banks. and
amounts included in pooled cash .and investment accounts due to their liquid nature. Cash and cash
equivalents are included in both unrestricted as well as restricted assets.
Investments other than those in the deferred compensation plan are stated at cost or amortized cost.
Property Tax Receivable -Property taxes are assessed and liens attach on valuations as of January 1.
levied on October I of each year. and become delinquent februar:· I of the followm£. year.
Uncollected taxes, net of the estimated uncollectible amount. are recorded as receivables in the
General and Debt Service Funds. Deferred revenue is recorded in an amount equal to net delinquent
taxes receivable, less taxes collected within 60 days after the end of the fiscal year.
Enterprise Fund Receivables-Within the Electric. Water. Sewer and Sohd Waste Enterpris;: Fund~.
an amount has been recorded for services rendered but not billed as of the close of the liseal year.
Amounts billed are reflected as receivables net of an allowance for uncollectibles.
Inventories -Inventories in the Proprietary Fund Types consist of expendable supplies held for
consumption. Inventories are valued at cost using the average cost method of valuation. Proprictar:
fund Types use the consumption method of accounting, (i.e .• inventor:· is expensed when used rather
than when purchased).
Prepaid Expenses-Prepaid expenses are accounted for under the consumption method.
Restricted Assets • Certain enterprise fund assets are restricted for construction which has been
funded through long-term debt, therefore. retained earnings have not been reserved for these amounts.
The excess of assets restricted for the payment of debt service over certain liabilities are included as
retained earnings reserved for capital projects, rate stabilization. economic development and bond
indentures.
Fixed Assets and Depreciation -General fixed assets are not capitalized in the funds used io acqUire
or construct them. Instead, capital acquisition and construction are .rellected as expenditures m
Governmental Funds. and the related assets are reported in the General Fixed Assets Account Group.
All purchased f1xed assets are recorded at cost. Donated asset.; arc recorded at the fair value on th~:
date of donation. Assets in the General fixed Asset Account Group are not depreciated.
Property, plant and equipment of the Proprietary funds are stated at cost or estimated market value
for donated assets. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives as follows:
Improvements
Buildings
Equipment

are recorded as advances to other funds. These are equally offset by a fund balance reserve am~unt
which indicates they do not constitute available spendable resources.
G. RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is self insured for medical and dental coverage. The liability for incurred claims represents
estimates for medical and dental claims incurred as ofSeptember 30. 1994. Some of these claims
were reponed at September 30, 1994, and others may not be reponed until a later date which are
incurred but not reponed (IBNR). IBNR is actuarially determined by the City's independent
insurance administrator.
The City's self insured worker's compensation and general liability programs are on a cash flow basis,
which means that the service contractor processes, adjusts and pays claims from a deposit provided by
the City. The City accounts for the worker's compensation program in the Insurance Fund (an Internal
Service Fund) by charging premiums based upon losses, administrative fees and reserve requirements.
The Fund establishes claim liabilities based on estimates of the ultimate cost of claims (including
future claim adjustment expenses) that have been reponed but not settled, and of claims that have
been incurred but not reponed. The length of time for which such costs must be estimated varies
depending on the coverage involved. Estimated amounts of salvage and subrogation and reinsurance
recoverable on unpaid claims arc deducted from the liability for unpaid claims. Because actual claim
costs depend on such complex factors as inflation, changes in doctrines of legal liability. and damage
awards. the process Used in computing claim liabilities does not necessarily result in an exact amount.
panicularly for coverages such as general liability. Claim liabilities are recomputed periodically using
a variety of actuarial and statistical techniques to produce current estimates that reflect recent
settlements, claim frequency. and other economic and social factors. Adjustments to claim liabilities
are charged or credited to expense in the period in which they are made.
Additionally, propeny. and boiler coverage is accounted for in the Insurance Fund. The propeny
insurance policy was purchased from an outside insurance carrier. The policy has a $250,000
deductible per occurrence, and the boiler coverage insurance deductible is $2,.500 to $100,000,
dependent upon the unit. Premiums are charged to funds based upon policy premiums and reserve
payments.
Other small insurance policies, such as surety bond coverage and miscellaneous floaters, are
accounted for in the Insurance Fund. Funds are charged expenditures based on premium amounts and
administrative charges. The City has had no significant reductions in insurance coverage during the
year. Settlements in the current year and preceding two years have not exceeded insurance coverage.
H. REVENUES. EXPENSES AND EXPENDITURES
lncerest Income on pooled cash and investments is allocated monthly based on the percentage of a
fund's average daily equity in pooled cash and investments to the total average daily pooled equity in
pooled cash and investments, except for Trust and Agency Funds, cenain SpeciaJ Revenue Funds,
Governmental Capital Project Funds, and cenain Internal Service Funds. The interest income on
pooled cash and investments of these funds is reponed in the General Fund or the Debt Service Fund.
Sales Tax Revenue· The City has a 1% sales tax levy which is collected by the State of Texas and
remitted to the City monthly. The tax is collected by the vendor and required to be remitted to the
State by the 20th of the month following collection. The tax is then paid to the City by the lOth of
the next month.
In addition, voters approved a 112 cent sales tax increase to fund land and other incentives for the
Depanment of Defense Accounting Office to be located in Lubbock, Texas. When that project was

canceled by thr.: U.S .. government, voters repealed. the tax. However, due to the timing of the
imposition and revocation of the increased tax, the additional 1/2 cent sales tax was collected for the
first quarter of fiscal year 1994. A ponion of the .collected funds was used to defease approximately
$3,600.000 of bonds issued to fund the construction of a 550 bed psychiatric hospital for the Texas
Depanment of Corrections. The remaining amount is to be used to fund specific projects as approved
by the City Council.
Grant Revenue from federal and state grants is recognized to th.e extent that the related expense has
been incurred.
lnterfund Transactions or quasi-external transactions are accounted for as revenues. expenditures or
expenses. Transactions that constitute reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initial!)
made from that fund that are properly applicable to another fund, are recorded as
expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing fund and as reductions of expenditures/expenses in the fund
that is reimbursed.
Nonrecurring or nonroutine permanent transfers of equity are reported as residual equity transfers.
All other interfund transactions except quasi-external transactions. reimbursements. temporary
receivables and payables, and residual equity ~ransfers are reported as operating transfers.
Compensated Absences consists of vacation leave and sick leave. Vacation leave of 10·20 days is
granted to all regular employees dependent upon the date employed, years of service. and civil service
status. Unused vacation leave is lost at the end of the calendar year. The City is obligated to make
payment upon retirement or termination for any available, unused vacation leave.
Sick leave for employees is accrued at I 1/4 days per month with unlimited accrual status. After 15
. years of continuous full time service for non-civil service personnel, vested sick leave is paid on
retirement or termination at the current hourly rate for up to 90 days. Civil service personnel are paid
for up to 90 days accrued sick. leave after one year of employment. The Texas Civil Service laws
dictate certain benefits and personnel policies above and beyond those policies of the City.
In November 1992, the GASB issued Statement No. 16, "Accounting for Compensated Absences".
In accordance with this statement, the City has recorded a liability for accumulated vacation. sick
leave. and certain salary related payments. such as employer portion of social security and medicare.
The cumulative effect of adoption of GASB Statement No. 16 was not significant to the linancial
statements of the City .
. The liability for the accumulated vacation and sick leave is recorded in the general long-term debt
account group for governmental fund employees and as a noncurrent liability in the proprietary fund
for proprietary fund employees. Management has determined that the current portion of this liability
is not significant to the overall financial position of the City.
Post Employment Benefits • Retirees of the City of Lubbock may purchase optional health and life
insurance benefits at their own expense. Amounts to cover premiums and administrative costs, with
an incremental charge for reserve funding, are determined by. the City's health care administrator.
Financial activity is reponed in the Health Insurance Internal Service Fund.

E. RETIREMENT PLANS
Each qualified employee is included ·in one of two retirement plans in which the Cit~ of Luohock
panicipates. These are the Texas Municipal Retirement System {TMRS) and the firemen· s Reltef and
Retirement Fund. The City does not maintain the accounting records. hold th<! inn:stmt:nts or
administer either fund.
Summary of significant data for each retirement plan follows:
TEXAS MUNICIPAL RETIREMENT SYSTEM (TMRS)
Plan Description
The City provides pension benefits for all of its full-time employees with the exception of firefighters
through a nontraditional. joint contributory. defined contribution plan in the stat<!· Wide TMRS. one or
over 636 administered by TMRS, an agent multiple-employer public employee retirement system. It
is the opinion of the TMRS management that the plans in TMRS are substantiall~ ddincd
contribution plans, but they have elected to provide additional voluntary disclosure to h.:-lp fostl!r a
better understanding of some of the nontraditional characteristics of the plan.
Benefits depend upon the sum of the employee's contributions to the plan, with int.:-rest. and the Cit~.
financed monetary credits. with interest. At the date the plan began, the City granted monetary credtb
for service rendered before the plan began of a theoretical amount equal to two times what woulJ
have been contributed by the employee. with interest, prior to establishment of the plan. Monctar}
credits for service since the plan began are 200% of the employee's accumulated contributions. In
addition, the City can grant as often as annually another type of monetary credit referred to as an
updated service credit which is a theoretical amount. When added to the employee's accumulated
contributions and the monetary credits for service since the plan began. the updated service credit
would be the toial monetary credits and employee comributions accumulated with interest if the
current employee contribution rate and City matching percent had always been in existence. and if the
employee's salary had always been the average of his salary in the last three years that arc one ~car
before the effective date. At retirement. the benefit is calculated as if the sum of the employee's
accumulated contributions with interest and the employer-financed monetary credits with interest
were used to purchase an annuity.
Members can retire at ages 60 ~nd above with 10 or more years of service or with 25 years of service
regardless of age. The plan also provides death and disability benefits. A member is vested alter 10
years. but he must leave his accumulated contributions in the plan. If a member \\ithdraws his own
money, he is not entitled to the employer-financed monetary credits. even if he was vested. The plan
provisions are adopted by the governing body of the City, within the options available in the state
statutes governing TMRS and within the actuarial constraints also in the statutes.
Contributions
The contribution rate for the employees is 6%. and the City matching percent is currently 200%. both
as adopted· by the governing body of the City. Under the state law governing TMRS. the City
contribution rate is annually determined by the actuary. This rate consists of the normal cost
contribution rate and the prior service contribution rate, both of which are calculated to be a ·level
percent of payroll from year to year. The normal cost contribution rate finances the currently
accruing monetary credits due to City matching percent, which are the obligation of the City as of an
employee's retirement date, not at the time the employee's contributions are made. The normal cost
contribution rate is the actuarially determined percent of payroll necessary to satisfy the obligation of
the City to each employee at the time his retirement becomes effective. The prior service contribution
rate amonizes the unfunded actuarial liability over the remainder of the plan's 25-year amonization
period. When the City periodically adopts updated service credits and increases its annuities in effect,
the increased unfunded actuarialliabilit~ i;:. to he amonized over a new 25-year period. Currently. the
unfunded actuarial cost method is used f, . d::tt:rmining the City contribution rate. Contributions are

NOTE Ill. DETAIL' NOTES ON ALL FUNDS AND ACCOUNT GROUPS
E. RETIREMENT PLANS (CONTINUED)
made monthly by both the employees and the City. Since the City needs to know its contribution rate
in advance to budget for it, there is a one-year Jag between the actuarial valuation that is the basis for
the rate and the calendar year when the rate goes into effect.
The City's total payroll in fiscal year 1994 was $.5.5,813, 743 and the City's contributions were based
on a payroll of $42.838.841. Both the City and the covered employees made the required
contributions, amounting to $4,454,452 (10.34% of covered payroll for the months in calendar year
1993, 7.32% normal cost plus 3.02% to amortize the unfunded actuarial liability, and 10.42"/o for the
months in calendar year 1994, 7.39% normal cost plus 3.03% to amortize the unfunded actuarial
liability) for the City and $2,570,333 (6%) for the employees. Of the $4,454.452 employer
contributions, approximately $3,1.57,605 was allocated to normal cost while approximately
$1.296.847 was allocated to amortize the unfunded actuarial liability. There were no related·pany
transactions.
Funding Status and Progress
Even though the substance of the City's plan is not to provide a defined benefit in some form. some
additional voluntary disclosure is appropriate due to the nontraditional nature of the defined
contribution plan which had an initial unfunded pension benefit obligation due to the monetary credits
granted by the City for services rendered before the plan began and which can have additions to the
unfunded pension benefit obligation through the periodic adoption of increases in benefit credits and
benefits. GASB Statement No. 5 defines pension benefit obligation as a standardized disclosure
measure of the actuarial present value of pension benefits, adjusted for the effects of projected salary
increases. estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date. The measure
is intended to help users assess the funding status of public employee pension plans, assess progress
made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due, and make comparisons among
public employee pension plans.
The pension benefit obligation shown below is similar in nature to the standardized disclosure
measure required by GASB Statement No. S for defined benefit plans, except that there is no need to
project salary increases since the benefit credits earned for service to date are not dependent upon
future salaries. The calculations were made as pan of the annual actuarial valuation as of December
3 I. 1993. Because of the money-purchase nature of the plan, the interest rate assumption, currently .
8.5% per year, does not have as much impact on the results as it docs for a defined benefit plan.
Market value of assets is not determined for each city's plan, but the market value of assets for TMRS
as a whole was 118.0%ofbook value as of December 31,1993.

The Lubbock Firemen's Relief and Retirement Fund provides service retirement, death. disability and
withdrawal benefits. These benefits become fully vested after 20 years of credited service.
Employees may retire at age 50 with 20 years of service. An early service retirement benefit is
provided for employees who terminate employment with 20 or more years of service. A panially
vested benefit is provided for employees who terminate employment with at least 10 but less than 20
years of service. The monthly benefit at normal retirement, payable in a Joint and 213 to Spouse form
of annuity, is equal to 68.75% of the final 48-month average salary plus $94.00 per month for each
year of service in excess of 20 years. This plan of benefits. which is described below as the "New .
Plan ... became effective December 30, 1993. It was adopted as a resultof the. December 31. 1992
valuation. Prior to December 20. 1993, th~ "Old Plan'' was in effect. Under that plan the normal
service retirement benefit was equal to 66.75% of final 48-month average salal)' plus S82.00 per
month for each year of service in excess of 20 years. Under that plan, Lubbock firefighters were
required to contribute 11.00% of their pay to the fund. Lubbock firefighters are also required to
contribute 11.00% of their pay to the fund .under the New Plan. At the present time, the City's
contributions are based on a formula which causes th.e City's contribution rate to fluctuate from year
to year. Under the Old Plan the City was required to make contributions which would average not
less than 13.500/o of payroll over the 28-year period beginning Janual)' I, 1991. Under the New Plan
the City is required to make contributions which will average not less than 14.00% of payroll over the
28-year period beginning Janual)' I. 1993. The benefit and contribution provisions of this plan are
authorized by the Te"as Local Firefighters Retirement Act (TELFRA).

2. Method Used to Value Investments The Lubbock Firemen's Relief and· Retirement Fund's
investments are reported at original cost Discount accretion and premium amortization are record.:d
as adjustments to investment income over the life of the security. Investment income is recognized as
it is earned. Gains and losses on sales of assets are recognized on the transaction date.
Funding Status and Progress
The amount shown as "Pension Benefit Obligation" is a standardized disclosure measure of the
present value of pension benefits estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee s.:n 1cc
to date. These benefits have been adjusted for the effects of projected salary increases. The .. pension
benefit obligation" is the actuarial present value of credited projected benefits and is intended to help
users assess the Lubbock Firemen's Relief and Retirement Fund's funding status on a gomg-concern
basis, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. and mah
comparisons among public employee retirement systems. This measure is independent of the
actuarial funding method used to perform the actuarial valuation.
The pension benefit obligation as of December 3 I, 1992 is based on the actuarial valuation as of
December 31, 1992, and the plan in effect on that date. As a result of that valuation a nt:\\ plan of
benefits has been adopted effective December 3 I, 1993. Significant actuarial assumptions used
include (a) a rate of return on the investment of present and future assets equal to 8.00% per yc:ar
compounded annually. {b) projected salary increases of 5.00% per year compounded annually.
attributable to inflation, (c) additional projected salary increases which averages approximately
1.00% per year, attributable to promotion and longevity and (d) no postretirement benefit increases.

The pension benefit obligation as of December 31, 1993 is based on the New Plan. This plan was in
effect on that date and was determined as part of an actuarial update as of that date. The actuarial
assumptions used are the same as those listed above for the December 31, 1992 valuation. As a result
of the adoption of the New Plan, the pension benefit ooligation as of December 31, 1993 increased
$2,008,996 over what it would have been under the Old Plan.

Contributions Required and Contributions Made
For the plan in effect December 31, 1992 the funding policy of the Lubbock Firemen's Relief and
Retirement Fund required contributions equal to 11.000/o of pay by the firemen and contributions
which would average not less than 13.SOO/o of payroll by the City over the 28-year period beginning
January 1, 1991. The New Plan adopted as a result of the December 31, 1992 valuation requires
firemen contributions of 11.000/o of pay and City contributions which will average not less than
14.00% of payroll over the 28-year period beginning January 1, 1993. For the 1993 calendar year,
contributions made were equal to 11.00.% of pay by the firemen and 14.4974% of payroll by the City
of Lubbock.
While the contribution requirements are not actuarially determined, state law requires that each plan
of benefits adopted by the fund must be approved by an eligible actuary. The actuary certifies that
the contribution commitment by the firefighters and the City provides an adequate financing
arrangement Using the entry age actuarial cost method, the plan's normal cost is determined as a
percentage of payroll .. The excess of the total contribution rate over the normal cost rate is used to
amortize the plan's unfunded actuarial accrued liability, and the number of years needed to amortize
the plan's unfunded actuarial accrued liability is determined using a level percentage of payroll
method. For the Old Plan in effect on December 31, 1992, the normal cost is 19.16% of pay and the
amortization period is approximately 13 years. For the New Plan adopted in December 1993 the
normal cost is 20.33% of pay and the amortization period is approximately 27 years based on a
December 31, 1992 valuation date.
For the 1992 calendar year, total contributions of $2,222,803 were required and paid into the fund.
For the 1993 calendar year, total contributions of S2,3S8,92S were required and paid into the fund.
Ten years of the standardized measure of the pension obligation is unavailable; the information will
be presented only for as mariy years as the measure is available.
Further details concerning the financial position of the Fund and the latest actuarial valuation are
available .Oy contacting the Board of Trustees, Firemen's Relief and Retirement Fund, City of
Lubbock, P.O. Box 2000, Lubbock, Texas 794S7.

The City offers its employees' a deferred compensation plan created in accordance "ith Internal
Revenue Code Section 457. The plan, available to all City employees, permits thl!m to defer a portion
of their salary until future years. The deferred compensation is not available to emplo~ ces until
termination, retirement, death or unforeseeable emergency.
All amounts of compensation deferred under th1= plan. all property and rights purchased with those
amounts, and all income attributable to those amounts, property, or rights are (until paid or made
available to the employee or other beneficiary) solely the property and rights of the City (without
being restricted to the provisions of benefits under the plan). subject only. to the claims of the City's
general creditors. Participant's rights under the plan are equal to those of general creditors of the City
in an amount equal to the fair market value of the deferred account for each participant.
In management's opinion. the City has no liability for losses under the plan but does have the duty of
due care that would be required ofan ordinary prudent investor. The City believes that it is unlike!~
that it will use the assets to satisfy the claims of general creditors in the future. All assets of the plan
are held by an independent administrator and valued at .market. The deferred compensation plan is
included in the City's financial statements as an agency fund.
G. SURFACE WATER SUPPLY
Canadian River Munic:ipal Water Authority
The Canadian River Municipal Water Authority (CRMW A) is a Conservation and Reclamation
District established by the Texas Legislature to construct a dam, water reservoir and aqueduct system
for the purpose of supplying water to surrounding cities. The District was created in 195 3 and
comprises eleven cities. including the City. The budget, financing and operations of the District are
governed by a Board of Directors selected by the ,governing bodies of each of the member cities. each
city being entitled to one or two members dependent upon population. At September 30. 1994 the
Board was comprised of 18 members, two of which represented the City of Lubbock.
The City contracted with the CRMWA to reimburse it for a portion of the cost of the Canadian River
Dam and aqueduct system in exchange for surface water. Accordingly, such payments are made
solely out of water system revenues and are not general obligations of the City. The City's pro rata
share of annual fixed and variable operating and reserve assessments is recorded .as an expense of
obtaining surface water. ·
The long-term debt is owed to the U.S. Bure~u of Reclamation for the cost of construction of the
facility, which was completed in 1969. The City's allocation of project cost ,\·as $32,905,862. During
the year ended September 30, 1994, principal payments in the amount of $705,927 reduced the
amount outstanding due to the authority .•t September 30, 1994 to $23,823.531, due in annual
installments of$1,351,543 including intl;'r.:-;: of2.632% until the year 2018. The above cost for the

rights are being amonized over 85 years. The cost and debt are recorded in the Water Enterprise
Fund.
GAAP requires accounting for debt service as a reduction in construction obligation payabLe and
related interest expense. However, the contract between the City and CRMW A requires the
classification of payments to CRMWA to be reflected as operating expenses of the Water Fund.
Accordingly, the adjustment required to 'conven GAAP expenses to the contractual agreement results
in an adjustment to increase operating expenses for principal payments in the amount of $705.927.

Brazos River Authority-Lake Alan Henry
During 1989, the City entered into an agreement with the Brazos River Authority (BRA) for the

In fiscal year 1994, the City adopted GASB Statement No. 18, "Accounting for Municipal Solid
Waste Landfill Closure and Postclosure Care Costs".
State and federal laws and regulations require the City to place a final cover on its landfill site when
it stops accepting waste and to perform certain maintenance and monitoring functions at the site for
thirty years after closure. Although closure and postclosure care costs will be paid only near or after
the date that the landfill stops accepting waste, the· City reports.· a portion of these closure and
postclosure costs as an operating expense in each period based on landfill capacity used as of each
balance sheet date. The effects of the implementation have been renected as a restatement of the
beginning retained earnings of the solid waste enterprise fund as discussed in Note VI.

N. LANDFILL CLOSURE AND POSTCLOSURE CARE COSTCCONTINUtm
The $6,465,141 ·reported as landfill closure and postclosure care liability at September 30. 1994.
represents the cumulative amoullt reported to date based on the use of 69.8 percent of the estimated
capacity of the landfill. This amount includes $454,307 and $431,592 of expense applicable to fiscal
1994 and 1993, respectively. The City will recognize the remaining estimated cost of closure and
postclosure care of $2,799,259 as the remaining estimated capacity is filled. These amounts ar.:
based on what it would cost to perform all closure and postclosure care in 1994. The City expects to
close the landfill in the year 1998. Actual cost may be higher due to inflation. changes in technolog~.
or changes in regulations.
The City is required by state and federal laws and regulations to provide assurance that fin:mcial
resources will be available to provide for closure, postclosure care, and remediation or containment
of environmental hazards at its landfill. The City is in compliance with these requirements and hns
chosen the Local Government Financial Test and Government Guarantee mechanism for providing
this assurance. The City expects to finance closure costs through normal operations.
NOTE IV. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
A. FEDERAL GRANTS
In the normal course of operations, the City receives grant funds from various Federal agencies. The
grant programs are subject to audit by agents of the granting authority to insure compliance with
conditions precedent to the granting of funds. Any liability for reimbursement which may arise as
the result of audits of grants is not believed to be material.
B. LITIGATION
The City is involved in lawsuits arising in the normal course of business. including claims
property damage, personal injury and personnel practices, disputes over contra.ct awards and property
condemnation proceedings, and suits contesting the legality of certain taxes. In the opinion of
management, the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the
City's financial position as of September 30, 1994.
NOTE V. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The City is subject to off-balance sheet risk associated with assets that are not recorded in the
financial statements, specifically with respect to United States Treasury Securities--State and Local
Government Series, held in five irrevocable trusts. These include:
• a trust to be used to refund a portion of the. City's Electric Light and Power System Refunding
Revenue Bonds, Series 1983
• a trust to be used to refund a portion of the City's Electric Light and Power System Refunding
Revenue Bonds, Series 1984
• a trust to be used to refund a portion of General Obligation Bonds, Series 1983 and 1985.
• a trust to refund a portion of General Obligation Bonds, Series 1987, a portion of General
Obligation Bonds, Series 1988, a portion of Combination Tax and Golf Course Revenue
Certificates of Obligation, Series 1988 and a portion of Combination Tax and Sewer System
Subordinate Lien Revenue Certificates of Obligation
• a trust to refund a portion of Tax and Waterworks Certificates of Obligation, Series 1992.
Management feels that due to the nature of these securities, there is a minimal amount of credit or
market risk associated with these securities.
Financial instruments which potentially subject the City to concentrations of credit risk consist
primarily of non-insured Clr collateralized demand deposits and trade receivables.

CITY OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS
·Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 1994
NOTE V. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
Management believes that the City places its demand deposits in well capitalized financial institutions
in amounts that are within the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limitations or are collateralized
by pledged securities. Concentrations of credit risk arc primarily focused on trade receivables '~''hich
are due from customers. No significant credit losses from individual receivables were experienced
during the year.

IN REGARD to the authorization· and issuance of the "City of Lubbock, Texas,
General Obligation Bonds, Series 1995A" (the "Bonds"), dated December 15, 1995 (the
"Bond Date"), in the princip8J. amount of $6,505,000, we have examined into the legality
and validity of the issuance theroof by the City of Lubbock, Texas (the "City"), which
Bonds are issuable in fully regist~red form only, in denominations of $5,000 or any
integral multiple thereof (within a maturity), have stated maturities of February 15,
1997 through February 15, 2016, unless redeemed prior to maturity in accordance with
the terms stated on the Bonds, and bear interest on the unpaid principal amount from
the Bond Date at the rates per annum stated in the ordinance authorizing the issuance
of the Bonds (the "Ordinance"), such interest being payable on February 15 and
August 15 in each year, tommencing August 15, 1996, to the registered owners thereof
shown on the registration books of the Paying Agent/Registrar on the Record Date
(stated on the face of the Bonds).
WE HAVE SERVED AS BOND COUNSEL for the City solely to pass upon the
legality and validity of the issuance of the Bonds under the Constitution and laws of
the State of Texas, and with respect to the exclusion of the interest· on the Bonds from
gross income for federal income tax purposes and none other. We have not been
requested to investigate or verify, and have not independently investigated or verified,
any records, data or other· material relating to the financial condition or capabilities of
the City. ·
OUR EXAMINATIONS into the legality and validity of the Bonds included a
review of the applicable and pertinent provisions of the Constitution and laws of the
State of Texas, a transcript of certified proceedings of the City relating to the
authorization and issuance of the Bonds, including the Ordinance, customary
certifications and opinions of officials of the City and other pertinent showings, and an
examination of the Bond executed and delivered initially by the City, which we found
to be in due form and properly executed.
BASED ON OUR EXAMINATIONS, IT IS OUR OPINION that the Bonds have
been duly authorized by the City in compliance with the Constitution and laws of the
State of Texas now in force, and the Bonds issued in compliance with the provisions of
the Ordinance are valid, legally binding and enforceable obligations of the City, payable
from the proceeds of an ad valorem tax levied, within the limitations prescribed by law,
upon all taxable property in the City, except to the extent that the enforceability
thereof may be affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or other

included in computing the alternative minimum taxable income of individuals or, except
as hereinafter described, corporations. Interest on all tax-exempt obligations, such as
the Bonds, owned by a corporation will be included in such corporation's adjusted
current earnings for tax years beginning after 1989 for purposes of calculating the
alternative minimum taxable income of such corporations, other than an S corporation,
a qualified mutual fund, a real estate mortgage investment conduit (REMIC), or a real
estate investment trust (REIT). A corporation's alternative minimum taxable income
is the basis on which the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code
and the environmental tax imposed by section 59A of the Code is computed.
WE EXPRESS NO OPINION with respect to any other federal, state, or local
tax consequences under present law or any proposed legislation resulting from the
receipt or accrual of interest on, or the acquisition or disposition of, the Bonds.
Ownership of tax-exempt obligations such as the Bonds may result in collateral federal
tax consequences to, among others, financial institutions, life insurance companies,
property and casualty insurance.companies, certain foreign corporations doing business
in the United States, S corporations with subchapter C earnings.and profits, individual
recipients of Social Security or Railroad Retirement Benefits, individuals otherwise

3. costs of issuance relating to the Bonds are estimated
to be $31,994.80 and will be paid by the Issuer from the proceeds
of sale of the Bonds. The remainder of the proceeds of sale will
be credited to the construction fund of the Issuer (the
"Construction Fund") , will be accounted for separately from all
other funds on the books of account of the Issuer, and will be used
to pay costs of the Projects. The Issuer estimates investment
earnings in the aggregate amount of $200,000.00 will be received
from the investment of the amounts deposited to the Construction
Fund pending the disbursement of such amounts for the governmental
purposes the Bonds are being issued to pay. All of such investment
earnings profit will be used to pay any cost overruns on the
Projects or if there are none, deposited to the Interest and
Sinking Fund and used to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds
within one year of receipt.
D. Temporary Periods and Time for Expenditures.
1. Within six months from the date hereof, the Issuer
will have incurred binding obligations or commitments to third
parties for the Projects in the amount of at least 5% of the net
sales proceeds of the Bonds.
0294497 -2-
No Text
2. After entering into said contracts, completion of the
Projects and the allocation of net sales proceeds of the Bonds to
expenditures will proceed with due diligence.
3. The Issuer expects that all of the net sales proceeds
of the Bonds will be spent within three years from the date hereof,
and that all investment proceeds of the Bonds will be spent within
one year from the date of receipt.
4. Approximately $0. 00 of the proceeds of the Bonds will
be used to reimburse the Issuer for Project expenditures made by it
from its own funds prior to the date hereof. The Issuer adopted an
official intent for the original expenditures (except possibly for
expenditures meeting the preliminary expenditures exception set
forth in section 1.150-2(f) (2) of the Regulations) not later than
60 days after payment of the original expenditures, and a copy of
such official intent is attached to this Certificate As To Tax
Exemption. Except for expenditures meeting the preliminary
expenditures exception set forth in section 1.150-2(f)(2) of the
Regulations, the Bonds are being issued and the reimbursement
allocation is hereby being made not later than 18 months after the
later of (i) the date the original expenditures were paid, or (ii)
the date the Project is placed in service or abandoned, but in no
event more than 3 years after the original expenditures were paid.
The original expenditures were capital expenditures, and in
connection with this allocation, the Issuer has not employed any
abusive arbitrage device under section 1.148-10 of the Regulations
to avoid the arbitrage restrictions or to avoid restrictions under
section 142 through 147 of the Code.
E. Interest and Sinking Fund.
1. Pursuant to the Ordinance, the Issuer has levied a
tax on all taxable property in the Issuer to pay principal of and
interest on the Bonds as such become due, and such tax has been
pledged to the payment of the Bonds. Amounts collected from such
tax for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds
are to be deposited to the credit of the Interest and Sinking Fund
maintained on the books of the Issuer.
2. The Interest and Sinking Fund will be maintained by
the Issuer primarily to achieve a proper matching of revenues and
debt service payments within each bond year. The Issuer expects
that the following will occur with respect to the money in the
Interest and Sinking Fund:
0294497
a. Such fund will be depleted at least once each
bond year, except possibly for a carryover amount not to
exceed the greater of the previous bond year's earnings on
the Interest and Sinking Fund or one-twelfth of the
-3-
No Text
,...
previous bond year's debt service requirements on the
Bonds;
b. All amounts deposited to such fund to pay debt
service on the Bonds will be spent within 13 months of
deposit; and
c. All amounts received from the investment of such
fund will be deposited therein and will be expended within
twelve months of receipt.
3. Except as described above, no funds of the Issuer
have been or will be pledged to payment of the principal of or
interest on the Bonds or otherwise restricted so as to give
reasonable assurance of the availability of such funds for such
purpose.
F. Yield and Nonpurpose Investments.
1. No other obligations of the Issuer which are
reasonably expected to be paid from substantially the same source
of funds as the Bonds were sold within 15 days from the date the
Bonds were sold, except for the "City of Lubbock, Texas, Tax and
Waterworks System (Limited Pledge) Revenue certificates of
Obligation, Series 1995", dated December 15, 1995 (the
"Certificates").
2. The discount factor required to reduce the principal
and interest to be paid on the Certificates and the Bonds to a
present value on the date hereof, compounding semiannually, equal
to the initial offering prices at which a substantial amount of
each maturity of the Certificates and the Bonds was sold to the
public, is 4.98765%. In determining the initial offering price at
which a substantial amount of each maturity of the certificates and
the Bonds was sold to the public, the Issuer has relied on
certificates from the managing underwriters that purchased such
obligations.
3. Except as otherwise provided in Section 148 (f) of the
Code, the Issuer will account for proceeds of the Bonds separately
from other funds of the Issuer and will compute and pay to the
United States Treasury the Rebate Amount due with respect to the
Bonds no less frequently than every five years, in the
installments, to the place, in the manner and accompanied by such
forms or other information as is or may be required by Section
148(f) of the Code and the regulations and rulings thereunder.
-4-
-
G. No Abusive Arbitrage Device.
1. In connection with the issuance of the Bonds, the
Issuer has not employed any action which has the effect of
overburdening the market for tax-exempt obligations by issuing more
bonds, issuing bonds earlier, or allowing bonds to remain
outstanding longer than is reasonably necessary to accomplish the
governmental purposes of the Bonds.
2. In connection with the issuance of the Bonds, the
Issuer has not employed any action which has the effect of enabling
the Issuer to exploit the difference between tax-exempt and taxable
interest rates to gain a material financial advantage.

Bonds of authorized denominations and having the same stated
Maturity, bearing the same rate of interest and of like aggregate
principal amount as the Bonds surrendered for exchange, upon
surrender of the Bonds to be exchanged at the Designated
Payment/Transfer Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar. Whenever
any Bonds are surrendered for exchange, the Paying Agent/Registrar
shall register and deliver new Bonds to the Holder requesting the
exchange.
All Bonds issued in any transfer or exchange of Bonds shall
be delivered to the Holders at the Designated Payment/Transfer
Office of the Paying Agent/Registrar or sent by United States
Mail, first class, postage prepaid to the Holders, and, upon the
registration and delivery thereof, the same shall be the valid
obligations of the City, evidencing the same obligation to pay,
and entitled to the same benefits under this Ordinance, as the
Bonds surrendered in such transfer or exchang_e.
All transfers or exchanges of Bonds pursuant to this Section
shall be made without expense or service charge to the Holder,
except as otherwise herein provided, and except that the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall require payment by the Holder requesting
such transfer or exchange of any tax or other governmental charges
required to be paid with respect to such transfer or exchange.
Bonds canceled by reason of an exchange or transfer pursuant
to the provisions hereof are hereby defined to be "Predecessor
Bonds," evidencing all or a portion, as the case may be, of the
same obligation to pay evidenced by the new Bond or Bonds
registered and delivered in the exchange or transfer therefor.
Additionally, the term "Predecessor Bonds" shall include any
mutilated, lost, destroyed, or stolen Bond for which a replacement
Bond has been issued, registered and delivered in lieu thereof
pursuant to the provisions of Section 11 hereof and such new
replacement Bond shall be deemed to evidence the same obligation
as the mutilated, lost, destroyed, or stolen Bond.
Neither the City nor the Paying Agent/Registrar shall be
required to issue or transfer to an assignee of a Holder any Bond
called for redemption, in whole or in part, within 45 days of the
date fixed for the redemption of such Bond; provided, however,
such limitation on transferability shall not be applicable to an
exchange by the Holder of the unredeemed balance of a Bond called
for redemption in part.

length and had the Yield of the Bonds not been relevant to either
party.
