ISSUE
The City of Wylie is considering approval of an ordinance establishing reinvestment Zone No. One for
commercial/industrial tax abatement.
BACKGROUND
Sanden International (U.S.A.) has requested tax abatements from the City of Wylie. Background information was
prepared for the October 25, 1994 Agenda Communication. The City, serving as lead party in the tax abatement
process, must designate the area as a reinvestment zone.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
There are no direct financial considerations associated with the creation of the reinvestment zone. However, the
financial considerations related to the tax abatement agreement are outlined with that agenda item.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
The statutes governing tax abatements are located in Chapter 312 of the Tax Code. The adoption of the Intent to
Participate was the first step leading to the formal consideration of a tax abatement agreement. The City Council is
being asked to consider creation of a Reinvestment Zone. This zone defines the physical boundaries of the zone
which is the property where Sanden is located. The process of designating a zone serves as a tool for the taxing units
to designate specific areas for reinvestment and requires any other business desiring a tax abatement to seek approval
from each of the taxing units.
In its consideration, the City Council must find that the improvements (Sanden's installation of personal property)
are feasible and would be of benefit to the zone after the expiration of the tax abatement agreement. City Council
must also find that the zone meets one of the applicable criteria for reinvestment zones. Specifically related to
Sanden, the criteria met is that the zone is reasonably likely to contribute to the retention or expansion of primary
employment and will attract major investment to the area.
The designation of the reinvestment zone is accomplished by ordinance passed by majority vote of the City Council
(as governing body of lead taxing unit). The designation of the zone lasts for five years and may be renewed for
periods not to exceed five years. A tax abatement may continue for up to ten years even if the reinvestment zone is
not renewed or its term expires before the end of the term of the abatement.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends adoption of the ordinance.

Tax Abatement Agreement with Sanden, U.S.A.
ISSUE
The purpose of this item is to consider a resolution establishing the intent of the City of Wylie
to enter into a tax abatement agreement by and between the City of Wylie, Texas, the Wylie
Independent School District (WISD), the County of Collin, the Collin County Community
College District and Sanden International (U.S.A.), Inc.; and authorizing the City Manager to
negotiate on behalf of the City of Wylie,the terms and conditions of a tax abatement agreement,
consistent with adopted guidelines, for submittal of said agreement for full review and
consideration by the City Council.
BACKGROUND
The City of Wylie received a letter, dated September 15, 1994, from the Sanden International
(U.S.A.), Inc. The letter served to formally request assistance in obtaining the appropriate tax
abatements from the City of Wylie. A copy of the letter is included as an attachment. The parts
localization and increased production projects planned for the Wylie facility invclve
approximately $40 million in capital equipment investment as well as an additional 360
employees. The City Manager has been meeting with Sanden officials over the last several
months to discuss these plans.
Sanden's expansion plans will have a tremendous economic impact on the city's tax base,and will
provide additional employment opportunities for the city and surrounding area. In addition to
these economic benefits, Sanden has proven to be an ideal corporate citizen. Many of it's
employees are actively involved in a host of business, civic and education related activities
throughout the City of Wylie.
The City Manager will begin negotiations with Sanden to establish the specific terms and
conditions of the tax abatement agreement. Established as the "lead taxing entity", discussions
have taken place with the other taxing units to establish a timeline of actions that are required
to be taken by each governing body.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
Terms and conditions of the agreement have not been negotiated. Therefore,no specific financial
considerations can be presented. Sanden's appraised value currently is approximately $52 million.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
Terms and conditions of the agreement have not been negotiated. Therefore,no specific financial
considerations can be presented. Sanden's appraised value currently is approximately$52 million.
The addition of 360 new employees will increase the total work force to over 750. Consistent
with the City of Wylie's adopted guidelines, Sanden would be eligible for the maximum tax
abatement, over a period of five years, of 400%.
Each taxing unit that chooses to participate,must approve the identical terms and conditions. The
Wylie Independent School District has informed the City that it can not participate in any
agreement that exceeds a 33% abatement, per year. Doing so would result in the WISD losing
state funding.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
The statutes governing tax abatements are located in Chapter 312 of the Tax Code. The adoption
of the Intent to Participate is the first step leading to the formal consideration of a tax abatement
agreement. This action does not bind the City Council to approve an agreement. During
November, City Council will be asked to consider creation of an Reinvestment Zone. In
December, City Council will be asked to formally consider approval of the Tax Abatement
agreement. Descriptions of these actions will be provided in corresponding Council
Communications.

ISSUE
The purpose of this item is to consider a resolution approving the terms and conditions of an agreement by and
between the City of Wylie, the Wylie Independent School District, the County of Collin, the Collin County
Community College District and Sanden International(U.S.A.), establishing a reinvestment zone in the City of Wylie,
and providing for a commercial/industrial abatement for Sanden International (U.S.A.), Inc.
BACKGROUND
The City of Wylie received a letter, dated September 15, 1994, from the Sanden International (U.S.A.), Inc. The
letter served to formally request assistance in obtaining the appropriate tax abatements from the City of Wylie. The
parts localization and increased production projects planned for the Wylie facility were originally estimated at
approximately$40 million in capital equipment investment. City Council approval on October 23 of a Resolution of
Intent to participate in an agreement with Sanden authorized the City Manager to begin negotiations on the specific
terms and conditions of a Tax Abatement Agreement (Agreement).
The amount of investment committed to by Sanden in the Agreement is a total of$30 million. The Agreement
provides for a 33% abatement each year for six years on the appraised value of the personal property expansion as
follows:
1st Year $24 million 4th Year $30 million
2nd Year $30 million 5th Year $30 million
3rd Year $30 million 6th Year $6 million
The first year abatement is based on the personal property expansion expected to be completed by December 31,
1994 and subsequent years are based on total estimated personal property expansion expected to be completed by
December 31, 1995. The sixth year partial abatement of$6 million combined with the first year partial abatement
of$24 million satisfies Sanden's request to receive five years of abatement for it's full investment, although the
abatement is spread over a six year period.
The other major deal point is the Agreement requires the personal property expansion to "remain on the premises
a minimum of eight (8) years, or unless it is abandoned". The "abandonment" clause was requested by the Sanden.
This allows the company the flexibility of replacing a piece of machinery that has become technologically obsolete,
rather than keeping it on the premises just because the Agreement says so. The depreciation schedule on the personal
property is seven (7) years.
The full $30 million investment will not be on the premises before December 31, 1994. Therefore, the concept of a
two tier installation was developed. The "Primary Installation" of$24 million in personal capital equipment will occur
before December 31, 1994 and the "Secondary Installation" of$6 million will occur before December 31, 1995.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
See Attachment "B" for specific fiscal impacts.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
The statutes governing tax abatements are located in Chapter 312 of the Tax Code. In Octonber, the Council
approved a resolution of the Intent to Participate. This was the first step leading to the formal consideration of a tax
abatement agreement. We are now prepared to consider the formal agreement. Neither the former resolution nor
the ordinance creating the zone bind the City Council to approve the agreement.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends adoption of the resolution.
