PROJECT PLAN— HUNTSVILLE TIRZ NO.1
AUGUST 2004
The City of Huntsville, Texas proposes to establish a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone
( "TIRZ ") for the purpose of dedicating the increase in tax revenue generated within the TIRZ to
provide funds for public infrastructure to encourage accelerated development and redevelopment
in the IH -45 /SH 30 area of the City. The TIRZ consists of approximately 805 acres and is more
fully described in Project Plan Exhibit: A.
The City is creating this TIRZ to encourage accelerated development and redevelopment in the
IH -45 /SH 30 area of the City that has remained generally undeveloped and would benefit from
the proposed public infrastructure improvements. It is expected that the TIRZ will exist for
twenty (20) years or the date when all project costs are paid, whichever comes first.
As set forth in Section 311.011 of the Tax Increment Financing Act of the Tax Code, the Project
Plan for Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 1, Huntsville, Texas must and does include the
following elements:
1. A map showing existing uses and conditions of real property in the TIRZ and a map
showing proposed improvements to and proposed use of the property.
■ The boundaries of the TIRZ are shown on the map labeled Project Plan Exhibit: B;
■ Project Plan Exhibit: C shows existing land use within the TIRZ. Currently, the
area is generally undeveloped. The area contains less than ten percent residential.
■ Project Plan Exhibit: D identifies public improvements being proposed for the
TIRZ;
■ A listing of those public improvements is shown in Project Plan Exhibit: E;
■ Project Plan Exhibit: F shows anticipated Future Land Use within the TIRZ.

PROJECT PLAN — HUNTSVILLE TIRZ NO. 1
2. Proposed changes of zoning ordinances, the master plan of the municipality, building
codes, and other municipal ordinances.
■ Any changes to codes, ordinances, or master plan as a result of the creation of
the TIRZ will be made through the standard process and procedures of the
City.
3. A list of estimated non - project costs.
■ Non - project costs within the TIRZ are those development costs not paid for by
the TIRZ. These costs will include, but are not limited to, $42.6 million,
which is comprised of new development.
4. A statement of a method of relocating persons to be displaced as a result of implanting
the plan.
■ In the process of developing the TIRZ, any relocations will be made through
the standard process and procedures of the City.

FINANCE PLAN — HUNTSVILLE TIRZ NO. 1
AUGUST 2004
The Financing Plan provides information on the projected monetary impact that the formation of
the Tax Increment Financing Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) could have on the property described in
Finance Plan Exhibit: A and shown in Finance Plan Exhibit: B. It will also describe how that
impact can be utilized to enhance the area and region through leveraging the resources of each
entity that participates in the project.
Below is a summary of the Financing Plan items reauired by law.
1. The proposed public improvements in the TIRZ may include:
• Capital costs, including the actual costs of the construction of public works,
public improvements, new buildings, structures, and fixtures; and the actual
costs of the acquisition of land and the clearing and grading of land;
• Financing costs, including all interest paid to holders of evidences of
indebtedness or other obligations issued to pay for project costs and any
premium paid over the principal amount of the obligations because of the
redemption of the obligations before maturity;
• Any real property assembly costs;
• Professional service costs, including those incurred for architectural, planning,
engineering, and legal advise and services;
• Any relocation costs;
• Organizational costs, including costs of conducting environmental impact
studies or other studies, the cost of publicizing the creation of the TIRZ, and
the cost of implementing the project plan for the TIRZ;
• Interest before and during construction and for one year after completion of
construction, whether or not capitalized;
• The amount of any contributions made by the municipality from general
revenue for the implementation of the project plan;
• Imputed administrative costs, including reasonable charges for the time spent
by employees of the municipality in connection with the implementation of a
project plan;
• The cost of operating the TIRZ and project facilities; and
• Payments made at the discretion of the governing body of the municipality
that the municipality finds necessary or convenient to the creation of the TIRZ
or to the implementation of the project plans for the TIRZ.

FINANCE PLAN — HUNTSVILLE TIRZ NO. 1
The specific capital improvement projects anticipated to be undertaken in the Huntsville
TIRZ No. 1, are included in Finance Plan Exhibit: C.
2. Estimated Project Cost of TIRZ, including administrative expenses.
• Project costs are estimated at approximately $ 3.3 million dollars. Specific
cost estimates are included in Finance Plan Exhibit: C.
3. Economic Feasibility Study.
• An economic feasibility analysis has been completed and is included as
Finance Plan Exhibit: D.
4. The estimated amount of bonded indebtedness to be incurred.
• Initial project related costs will be advanced by the Developer. Bonds may
be issued when adequate tax increment has been created to support debt
service.
5. The time when related costs or monetary obligations are to be incurred.
• Please refer to Finance Plan Exhibit: C for details regarding the phasing and
type of improvement costs anticipated.
6. A description of the methods of financing all estimated project costs and the
expected sources of revenue to finance or pay project costs including the
percentage of tax increment to be derived from the property taxes of each
taxing unit on real property in the TIRZ
• Project costs will be financed through loans advanced by developers or the use
of tax increment funds received on a pay -as- you -go basis. No new debt is
envisioned at this time, but bonds may be issued at a later date when adequate
tax increment has been created to support debt service. The revenue sources
will be the real property taxes captured by the TIRZ, which will account for
100% of revenues used to fund project costs or bond debt service. For the
Financial Plan, it is assumed that the City will participate at 100% of its
incremental taxable value and the County will participate at $0.425/$100
valuation.
7. The current total appraised value of taxable real property in the TIRZ.
• The current appraised base value of the taxable real property in the TIRZ
using the 2003 values provided by the Walker County Appraisal District is
$10,000,000. This base value will be updated to 2004 certified values when
they are available.

Schrader & Cline, LLC was asked to prepare a Feasibility Analysis using tax increment
financing to encourage accelerated development and redevelopment of the
Area Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 1 in the City of Huntsville, Texas. This area of the
City needs public infrastructure projects that will provide a stimulus for new development and
redevelopment of existing facilities.
Section I summarizes the history of Huntsville and discusses the current situation.
Section II details the tax increment analysis.
Section III contains exhibits.
The following projections of development and tax revenues are subject to change. As underlying
conditions in the national and regional economy change, the pace and value of new development
and redevelopment projected for the TIRZ area may shift. Future property tax rates are
particularly difficult to predict given their dependence on changes in the tax base, the mix of
taxes levied and the various jurisdictions' overall fiscal and budgetary policies. Thus, the
projected tax increments are subject to change. The analysis of future tax increment funds is
dependent on a series of projections, assumptions, and other inputs; the report should be
reviewed in totality.
Neither this report nor its conclusions may be referred to or included in any prospectus or part of
any offering made in connection with private syndication of equity, sale of bonds, sale of
securities or sale of participation interests to the public without express written approval

SECTIONI: HISTORYICURRENT SITUATION
HISTORY
The City of Huntsville was established in 1835 or 1836 and was designated the seat of
Walker County when the county was organized in 1846. At the end of its first decade,
Huntsville became the site of the new Texas State Penitentiary, established by the Legislature in
1847. In 1852, Austin College was opened and later, in 1879, Austin College became Sam
Houston State University. These two institutions, the Penitentiary and the University, have
provided employment stability unique to most towns and even today are the two largest
employers in the City of Huntsville.
On the whole, the Huntsville economy remained fairly stable from the Civil War through
the Great Depression. Highway development in the late 1920's and early 1930's enhanced
Huntsville's position as a trade center for a significant rural area of East Texas. Beyond the two
state institutions mentioned previously, lumbering, farming, livestock raising, and tourism have
constituted the economic base of the city. The growth of the penitentiary system and of Sam
Houston State University, the expansion of metropolitan Houston, and the development of Lake
Livingston and similar attractive living areas revitalized the economy in the 1970's and 1980's.
Population of the City has continued to grow, increasing from 23,936 in 1980, to 27,925 in 1990,
and to the 2000 population of 35,078. Notice that the population is increasing at a more rapid
rate, growing 16.7% between 1980 to 1990, but at a 25.6% rate between 1990 to 2000. This
continued more rapid growth rate drives the need for more convenience retail and restaurants.
CURRENT SITUATION
With continued growth of the City creating a need for additional retail and restaurants, a
logical location for these uses would be adjacent to the highest traffic area of the City —along
Interstate 45. And, there is a large generally undeveloped 800 + -acre tract in just that area along
the west side of IH 45, north of FM 1374 and south of the Veteran's Memorial Parkway
intersection with IH 45. However, even though IH45 has been completed and in service for
years, and utilities have been available in some areas of this tract to serve private investment,
4
FINANCE PLAN: EXHIBIT D— Feasibility Analysis
these prevailing conditions have not attracted enough private investment interest to complete
development of this area. Without additional public infrastructure, the opportunity for a
significant infusion of new convenience retail and restaurants will be denied, and any new
development will most likely be done in a piece meal fashion, one development at a time, and
will occur over an extended period of time.
To make this area more desirable and useable for private development, additional public
infrastructure is needed. One method of funding this additional public infrastructure is through
the use of a Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone (TIRZ) that would utilize real property tax
revenue from new private investment as a funding mechanism. Based on the City's interest in
establishing a TIRZ, a developer is proposing to develop about 40 -acres within the 805 -acre
TIRZ boundary. Real property taxes from the proposed development would be utilized to repay
the developer for construction of the public improvements shown in Exhibit A that are required
to support the private development projects shown in Exhibit B.
This proposed development would occur during the 2005 -2007 time period and would be
a multi -use development of retail, restaurant, hotel and theatre. With the stimulus provided by
this initial development, it is expected the remainder of the TIRZ will develop over a shorter
period than would occur without benefit of the TIRZ as an incentive for development. However,
none of the future development has been included in the analysis.

FINANCE PLAN: EXHIBIT D— Feasibility Analysis
SECTIONII: TAX INCREMENT ANALYSIS
This section documents the detailed analysis and inputs used to generate the tax
increment revenue estimates. Tax Increment financing involves:
■ Designating an eligible redevelopment area as a tax increment financing
reinvestment zone;
■ Soliciting participation of the taxing jurisdictions (County only);
■ Setting the assessment base a the level of the most recent assessment;
and
■ Placing tax revenues generated by the increase in assessed value to a tax
increment fund for funding public improvements.
Thus, future tax increment revenues depend on four elements:
■ The timing and added value of new development;
■ Appreciation of existing land and improvements;
■ The loss of value from any existing improvements demolished to make
way for new development; and
■ Future tax rates and the percentage of participation of each taxing
jurisdiction.
Assessment policies in Walker County generally set building assessments at 100 percent
of fair market value, which may be somewhat less than construction costs for new construction.
Values used in this analysis have been adjusted accordingly. Assessed values are established as
of January 1 of the tax year. Thus, development in 2004 goes on the tax rolls for the Tax Year
2005. In this analysis, to be conservative, no increase in existing land value will be included and
new development values have not been increased after full build -out. In addition, only taxes
from increases in real property values are directed to the TIRZ Fund. Taxes from increases in
business personal property and inventory values continue to flow to each taxing jurisdiction.
The total year 2003 assessed value of the property within the TIRZ boundary was about
$10 million. For purposes of this tax increment analysis, we have assumed that the initial
assessment base for the tax increment fund will be $10 million. Taxes on this amount will
0
FINANCE PLAN: EXHIBIT D— Feasibility Analysis
continue to flow to each taxing jurisdiction during the life of the TIRZ. This base tax value will
be revised when the 2004 certified values become available.
The TIRZ Fund generated by the incremental value of new development shown in
Exhibits C and D are calculated by multiplying the incremental assessed value by the property
tax rates of participating jurisdictions.
Fiscal year 2003 tax rates included:
JURISDICTION
City of Huntsville
Walker County
TAX RATE PER $100 OF
ASSESSED VALUE
$ 0.425
$ 0.425
Over the 20 -year projection period, we have conservatively assumed that the nominal tax
rates will remain constant.
Taxes generated against tax year 2005 values as of January 1, 2005 are due and collected
at the beginning of 2006. This analysis compares income flowing to each taxing jurisdiction
both with and without the TIRZ.
Without the TIRZ, new private development value over twenty years shown in Exhibits E
and F will total only $34.1 million, with an associated business personal property and business
inventory value of $7.5 million over the next 20 years. This development value is somewhat less
than the value with the TIRZ and is projected to develop at a much slower rate than with the
TIRZ.
These projected incremental assessed values would yield the following tax revenues as
shown in Exhibit G:

Based on this analysis, establishment of the TIRZ will provide income to the TIRZ Fund
of $ 6.583 million dollars over the next twenty years, which will adequately fund the projected
$3.3 million of public infrastructure projects. In addition, during the 20 -year life of the TIRZ,
the City will receive about 50% more and the County will receive about 36% more tax revenue
than they would have received without the TIRZ as shown in Exhibit I. Tax revenue for the first
year after expiration of the TIRZ (21- years) will be $732,000 and $498,000 for the City and
County respectively versus $509,000 and $404,000 that would have been received without the
TIRZ.
