Staff Comments
City Manager Manson addressed Council stating that Oncor Electric Delivery Company ("Oncor" or "the
Company") filed an application on or about March 17, 2017 with cities retaining original jurisdiction
seeking to increase system-wide transmission and distribution rates by $317 million or approximately
7.5% over present revenues. The Company asks the City to approve an 11.8% increase in residential
rates and a 0.5% increase in street lighting rates. If approved, a residential customer using 1000 kWh per
month would see a bill increase of about$6.68 per month.
The resolution suspends the April 21, 2017 effective date of the Company's rate increase for the
maximum period permitted by law to allow the City, working in conjunction with the Steering Committee of
Cities Served by Oncor, to evaluate the filing, determine whether the filing complies with law, and if lawful,
to determine what further strategy, including settlement, to pursue.
Manson explained the City of Wylie is currently a member of a 156-city coalition known as the Steering
Committee of Cities Served by Oncor ("Steering Committee"). The Steering Committee has been in
existence since the late 1980s Empowered by city resolutions and funded by per capita assessments, the
Steering Committee has been the primary public interest advocate before the Public Utility Commission,
the Courts, and the Legislature on electric utility regulation matters for the last 30 years.

5. Consider, and act upon, a Chapter 380 Agreement with Bloomfield Homes, LP. (M. Manson,
City Manager)
Staff Comments
City Manager Manson addressed Council stating that staff was recently contacted by representatives of
Bloomfield Homes, LP who proposed a Chapter 380 Agreement as a method for sharing Bloomfield's use
tax paid in connection with building materials used by Bloomfield to build new homes in Wylie.
Manson reviewed the major points of the agreement with Council which included:
A. Per state law, the City may offer economic incentives through a Chapter 380 Agreement.
B. The City shall pay Bloomfield Homes 80% of the City's one percent (1.00%) General Fund use
tax generated and paid by the homebuilder during the term of the Agreement.
C. Either party may terminate the Agreement if state or federal law renders the Agreement
ineffectual or illegal.
D The Agreement may be terminated if Bloomfield Homes suffers an Event of Bankruptcy or
insolvency.
Manson explained, based on Bloomfield Homes' 775 undeveloped lots in Wylie, the company anticipates
each new home will generate roughly$480 in net City/ EDC / Parks, Rec & Library tax revenues (net of
Grants) and $320 in net benefits for Bloomfield Homes that will be used to recover the company's costs
for use tax compliance. Over the build-out period of the new homes in Wylie, and presuming no inflation
in the cost of building materials, Wylie's net City tax revenues after Grants are anticipated to be $62,000
for the General Fund plus $310,000 for the EDC / Parks & Rec and Library (total of $372,000) and
$248,000 for Bloomfield Homes. If building material costs increase during the term of the Agreement or if
Bloomfield purchases new undeveloped lots in Wylie and builds incremental new homes in the City, the
benefits could increase further.
Council Action
A motion was made by Mayor pro tem Stephens, seconded by Councilwoman Culver to
approve a Chapter 380 Agreement with Bloomfield Homes, LP. A vote was taken and the
motion passed 7-0.
