CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION DATE: September 2, 2025 FROM: Ramie Hammonds, Development Services Director AGENDA ITEM: Conduct a public hearing on a request for a zoning change from Business 2 (B- 2) to Planned Development (PD) for approximately 23.425 acres of land, described as A0029A R. BEEBEE, TR 64B and 64B(4), within the City of Sanger, and generally located south of FM 455 and approximately 408 east of the Santa Fe Railroad. SUMMARY: The development will consist of approximately 23.425 acres. The property is currently zoned B-2 Business 2. The applicant requested the Sanger Town Center South Planned Development. The development will allow RC – Regional Commercial and NC – Neighborhood Commercial uses. These uses are equivalent to the previous B-2 Business 2 and B-1 Business 1 uses. The PD states that setbacks will be measured from the exterior lot lines with no setback internally. It would increase the front setback from 20’ to 25’. The PD allows for shared parking and overall parking requirements, but will meet the minimum number of spaces. The buffer yard will have a straight minimum 3’ buffer as opposed to the ordinance that states a minimum 10’ but no less than 3’ in congested areas. Landscape percentage will be calculated on entire development and not per individual tract. Staff mailed out 129 public hearing notices to owners of properties within 200 feet of the subject property and has received 6 responses Opposed. This zoning aligns with our Comprehensive Plan. Planning & Zoning recommended approval on 8-12-25. FISCAL INFORMATION: Budgeted: N/A Amount: N/A GL Account: N/A RECOMMENDED MOTION OR ACTION: Staff recommends APPROVAL.

BUDGET MESSAGE September 2, 2025 Introduction We are pleased to present the FY 2025-2026 Budget for the City of Sanger. The City of Sanger’s budget is one of our most important tools for planning and providing the services our community relies on. It helps the City Council and staff make thoughtful decisions about how to use public funds to support residents, improve neighborhoods, and plan for the future. Like all cities, Sanger faces tough choices—there are always more needs than resources. That’s why we take a careful, balanced approach to budgeting, making sure we prepare for current conditions while also thinking ahead. Sanger is in a time of strong and steady growth. We’re seeing more building activity—both homes and businesses— and more interest in larger developments, like residential subdivisions and mixed-use projects. As the city grows, we remain committed to delivering the high-quality services our community expects, while making sure our growth is sustainable and our financial practices stay responsible. This message is meant to help you understand how the budget works and the environment in which it was created. It follows the same general structure as in past years, highlighting the key parts of this year’s budget. We also include a SWOT analysis—an overview of the City’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges in the year ahead. Finally, we explain where the City’s money comes from and how it is spent. Whether you’re familiar with city finances or new to the topic, this message is designed to give you a clearer picture of how your city works for you—and how we’re planning for a strong future together. Current Conditions The city has seen an improvement in supply chain issues, which is a positive indicator for the next fiscal year. However, inflation rates and possible legislative changes impacting city funding could dynamically change future forecasts. Inflation rates tend to impact not only the City’s purchasing power but also lending rates. Legislative changes that may go into effect in the new fiscal year will continue to be monitored, as they could dramatically impact project timelines and costs through 2026 and beyond. The housing market is still strong in Sanger. Demand continues to be high due to the area’s location and the increase and convenience of available amenities. Additional residents add to several revenue streams but also increase the need for services, which is often times offsetting, negating any revenue gains. Sales tax in FY 2024-2025 should end the year close to projections. For FY 2025-2026 we are projecting General Fund Sales Tax Revenues $1,950,000. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 10 127 Item 13. $- $200,000 $400,000 $600,000 $800,000 $1,000,000 $1,200,000 $1,400,000 $1,600,000 $1,800,000 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 General Fund Sales Tax Ten Year History New residential and commercial construction and increased valuations are reflected in an anticipated increase in the property tax base. As always, we take a conservative approach to budgeting revenues. We continue to work on the Capital projects scheduled for this year, and some of these will carry over into next year. Engineering along Marion, Belz, and Jennifer Circle are well underway and we anticipate the projects will be ready to award by late fourth quarter. The Street and Utility Maintenance Program (SUMP) is also moving forward at a rapid pace. Streets have been graded, and packages are being built for the Council’s review and possible approval in late 2025. Miracle Field, Porter Park Phase II, and the Sanger Senior Center are all slated for work this year, demonstrating the city’s commitment to quality-of-life projects for the community. FY 2025- 2026 Budget Highlights Capital Equipment To request departmental capital expenditures, city department directors will complete a request form for each requested expenditure. During individual and group budget meetings, these requests are reviewed along with supporting documentation and options to the request. All capital requests are reviewed to determine if they are in sync with City Council goals and the city’s strategic plan. The departmental capital request forms selected for funding are included in the Appendix of this document. The proposed budget includes the following Capital Equipment. Department Category Description Amount Police Vehicles Chevrolet Traverse 50,283$ Fire Vehicles Brush Apparatus 312,948$ Water Vehicles 1 Ton Truck with Dump Bed 75,000$ Electric Vehicles Chevrolet 3500HD Crew Cab Pickup 54,000$ City Council Equipment Delcom-recording Council Meetings 71,000$ City Council Equipment Granicus-recording Council Meetings 94,500$ Finance Equipment Migration to Tyler ERP Pro v10 69,250$ Facilities Capital Improvements HVAC system for Library 13,500$ Total 740,481$ P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 11 128 Item 13. Internal Service Fund Some departments have responsibilities in both the General Fund and Enterprise Fund. To both increase transparency and assist operational efficiency, we have placed those departments in an Internal Service Fund (ISF). This allows us to present a single budget for each department better reflecting that department’s true budget. It also streamlines the purchasing process. For accounting purposes, these departments are allocated to the funds on a monthly basis so that each fund’s true cost can be reflected in the audit. Personnel We continue to make improvements to our compensation and benefits plan so that we can both attract and maintain competent staff members. The City engaged Public Sector Personnel Consultants to prepare a compensation study and on June 3, 2024, the City Council adopted a new salary schedule based on that study's results. The new schedule makes adjustments to positions that are currently below market grade. The personnel review system uses a weighted measure to award this percentage at 2%. 4%, and 6% levels depending upon performance. In the current economic climate, it is imperative that we stay competitive on wages and benefits to keep from continually losing good employees to other cities. To support Sanger's growth, the City is expanding its workforce to maintain excellent customer service across all departments and enhance existing services. The primary goal is to ensure the community remains safe and clean for all residents. The City is adding three Lieutenant positions in the Fire Department to improve public safety in our growing community. In response to the challenges of managing growth, the City is adding a Planning Technician position in Development Services. Operating Expenses We do not directly control many of our operating expenses like health care costs and the price of fuel. Absorbing these costs can leave very little extra money left for the expansion of services. Any proposed increases in operating costs must be accompanied by written justification from the department head. All of the department heads have done a good job in their proposed budgets of keeping operating expenses in check. Capital Projects This year, capital projects continuing include the rehabilitation of several streets in the city, as well as the installation of a new automated water and electric meter reading system, work on aesthetics along the I-35 corridor, work on improvements and renovations to the Senior Center and the Community Center. New projects slated to begin this year include the design of renovations to Fire Station 1, improvements at Switzer Park, electric system improvements, and clarifiers at the wastewater treatment plant. A five-year capital summary and improvement plan is included in this document. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 12 129 Item 13. Reserve In 2014, the City reached its goal of increasing emergency reserves to $2,000,000. In addition to these reserves, the city has two funds that account for reserves explicitly earmarked for recovery from storm damage. In total, contingency reserves across the General, Enterprise, Electric Storm Recovery, and General Storm Recovery Funds now total $4,000,000. $0 $100,000 $200,000 $300,000 $400,000 $500,000 $600,000 $700,000 $800,000 $900,000 $1,000,000 $1,100,000 $1,200,000 $1,300,000 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Projected Contingency Reserve Funds Five Year History General Fund Enterprise Fund Electric Storm Recovery General Storm Recovery 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Projected General Fund 856,943$ 1,063,637$ 1,078,335$ 1,098,248$ 1,131,200$ Enterprise Fund 1,046,227 1,057,580 1,073,800 1,092,101 1,125,500 Electric Storm Recovery 1,213,988 1,234,785 1,255,941 1,270,261 995,000 General Storm Recovery 400,000 700,000 1,005,367 1,020,506 750,000 Totals 3,519,179$ 4,058,024$ 4,415,466$ 4,483,140$ 4,001,700$ SWOT Analysis A SWOT analysis is a look at the city’s Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT). It is intended to give the reader a strategic perspective of current and future issues. These issues have an effect on both revenues and expenditures. Strengths The local economy remains strong as indicated by the steady increase in construction. The unemployment rate has adjusted in Denton County and remains lower than the state average. The area continues to see a large influx of new residents each year and this trend is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. Sanger’s location is one of its greatest strengths and something we continue to aggressively market. Rail and Interstate access and developable industrial land also top the list of Sanger’s strengths. Commercial interest in industrial property has picked up in the last year. We continue to proactively recruit retailers and other businesses. Another asset is the quality of life enjoyed by the citizens of Sanger. Sanger residents have access to all of the amenities of the metroplex while enjoying life in a quiet, small-town atmosphere. Access to Lake Ray Roberts is also a quality- of-life asset and an economic boost for Sanger. The sports park has been a tremendous quality of life improvement for our citizens as well. It is well-used and has been well-received by the citizens. It has also been a tremendous advertising tool for Sanger. In 2014, we added a splash park to replace our obsolete swimming pool, another quality- P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 13 130 Item 13. of-life improvement for our citizens to enjoy. In 2018 the 4B board funding allowed the installation of shade structures to cover the bleachers at Porter Park. In 2019 the Board provided grant funding for a community project that involved building an event pavilion at Porter Park. Sanger Electric is another strength enjoyed by the City of Sanger. This revenue not only supports the Enterprise Fund but the Storm Recovery Fund as well. Sanger also enjoys having both a 4A and 4B economic development board. Each of these boards generates over $1M annually in revenue. These monies have allowed Sanger to compete economically and make the quality-of-life improvements as mentioned above. 4B funds are currently being used to pay for the debt service on the Porter Sports Complex and other projects. Emergency reserve funds are also a strength. Eventually, every city faces some type of disaster. Be it a tornado, flood, ice storm or another disaster, two things are certain: the city will need money for the recovery efforts, and traditional revenue sources will be negatively impacted at the same time. Having these funds on hand will help us recover as quickly as possible without destroying us financially. Weaknesses To a large extent, cities in Texas are dependent on property taxes to fund their general revenue operations. In Sanger, approximately 50% of general fund operating revenues come from property tax. The weakness here is that almost three quarters of the market value of property in Sanger comes from residential improvements. Demand for service is much higher from residential properties than from commercial properties. This means that, when averaged out, residences rarely pay the full amount in property tax for the services they receive from the city. Commercial properties, however, typically generate more property tax than they require in services. Growing our commercial property tax base is essential to providing quality service to our customers while limiting the property tax burden on our residents. Recruiting more industrial and commercial development continues to be a priority. Another weakness is median home prices in Sanger. High demand for homes and a short supply of available properties continues raising average home prices across the state. The most recent report supplied by the Denton County Appraisal District reveals that the average home value in Denton County is $548,861. The same report values the average home in Sanger at $301,298. The lower values result in a much lower tax income per property than in other areas. We need to diversify our housing mix to include houses in higher price ranges that generate higher property taxes. This will also help alleviate the tax burden on families with lower incomes and those with fixed incomes. The Council has established benchmarks that are helping to alleviate this weakness. As a result, we are seeing our average valuation increase. We will continue to proactively encourage this trend at the staff and Council levels to eliminate this weakness. Another weakness that stifles growth is the fact that as the city limit has expanded, we added areas that are not in our water supply CCN. Because the water supply corporation that serves these areas does not provide fire protection, development is severely limited. In recent years, legislation has alleviated this to some extent by providing a mechanism to transfer the CCN. However, the issue still remains a hindrance to growth due to the costs associated with the transfer. The increase in requests for special districts, such as Municipal Utility Districts (MUDs), continues to flood our region. The ease at which these districts can be created has reduced the City’s leverage for mutually beneficial development agreements that would bring many of these districts into the City’s taxing jurisdiction. Instead, these districts tend to fall P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 14 131 Item 13. outside our municipal boundaries but require high expenditure services, primarily fire and emergency medical services, subsidized by Sanger’s General Fund. Opportunities Industrial Development Sanger is uniquely located to service both North Texas and Southern Oklahoma and has hundreds of acres of developable land with both interstate highway and rail access. Sanger must capitalize on these industrial prospects and aggressively market its strengths. To do this will require additional investment in infrastructure to ensure that industrial sites are “shovel ready” when companies are ready to move. To that end, the city has extended water and wastewater lines to potential industrial sites along I-35 to entice industrial development. Residential Development The city has issued 32 single-family residential permits so far this year. Several new phases of existing developments are underway or have residential lots that have just been released for construction. Staff and Council continue to encourage a greater mix in housing and we are still seeing those efforts pay off. Homes in higher price ranges generate higher property taxes but typically require the same number of services as homes of lesser appraised value. This allows the city to provide services at a lower tax rate, saving everyone on their property taxes. The average home value in Sanger is approximately $301,298. At that value, a home will generate approximately $2,100 in city property tax each year. In comparison, a $450,000 home generates approximately $3,100 at the same tax rate. Simply put, higher-priced homes translate into lower property taxes and increased services for everyone. Commercial Development Commercial development continues to progress at a steady pace. Sanger is experiencing some commercial growth and should see more as the IH-35 begins, and 455 work towards final completion. The good news is that Sanger has plenty of developable commercial property. We have invested heavily in bringing utilities to these sites so that they are ready for development. The city must continue to promote commercial development, especially development that generates both property and sales tax. Threats High inflation rates will be our biggest threat this fiscal year. At this time, it is very difficult to project the long-term impacts on the economy. It is imperative that we monitor it closely and stay ahead of any economic downturn. One threat that bears close watch is the increased cost of health insurance. We typically do not know until late in the budget process if we will face an increase this year or not but an increase is likely. A growing concern on the horizon is a legislative push to restrict city and county spending. Texas Governor Greg Abbott is leading the effort, proposing limits on local budget growth by tying spending increases to inflation and population growth. Supporters argue that unchecked local spending drives up property tax bills. Still, local officials and critics caution that these constraints could severely impact fast-growing communities already facing mounting service demands. The proposed caps could force cuts to essential services such as law enforcement and delay major infrastructure projects. A bill in the Texas House would require voter approval for any spending that exceeds the proposed limits. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 15 132 Item 13. Understanding the Municipal Budget This section is intended to give the reader an overview of how the budget works. Municipal budgets are governed by Federal and State Statutes and local regulations. The intent here is not to explain every requirement for municipal budgeting but to discuss generally how the budget works. The city operates six major funds. They are the General Fund, Enterprise Fund, 4A Economic Development Fund, 4B Economic Development Fund, Debt Service Fund, and Capital Improvement Funds. These funds are explained in detail below. The city’s fiscal year runs from October 1st through September 30th each year. The budget process begins in the spring of each year internally. Budget workshops are held during the summer of each year with the city Council and economic development boards. Public hearings are also held on the budget. The budget must be approved and next year’s property tax rate set before October 1st each year. One important point to make is that revenue numbers in the budget are estimates of what we think will be collected next year. Projected revenues are not sitting in the city’s bank account on October 1st waiting to be used. If revenues do not meet projections, then expenditures must be curtailed to meet those shortfalls. If revenues exceed projections, then excess fund balances at the end of the year can be used to build up reserves, do capital projects or supplant next year’s revenues. General Fund The General Fund is the fund used to finance the operations of the general government. The General Fund includes Public Safety, a portion of Public Works, Community Services, Sanitation, and a portion of Administrative and Support Services. Public Safety includes Police, Municipal Court, Animal Control, Code Enforcement, Fire and Ambulance departments. Sanitation is solid waste, which is contracted out to a third-party operator. Community Services include Development Services and the Library. The Park and Recreation and Street departments are shown on their own to more clearly show the portion of the general fund spent on these departments. Transfer to Other Funds includes transfer to the Internal Service Fund as well as the Capital Improvement Projects Fund. General Fund revenues come from a myriad of sources including property tax, sales tax, court fees, Fire and EMS revenues and franchise fees. By far, the largest revenue stream is property tax. Due to the growth and appreciation of property values, Sanger has enjoyed increasing property taxes over the last twelve years. Property Tax 47% Sales & Mixed Drink Tax 12%Franchise Fees 7% Charges for Services 8% Fees, Fines, Licenses & Permits 14% Miscellaneous 4%Transfers from Other Funds 8% General Fund Revenues by Type 22.5% Police 25.2% Fire 1.7% Municipal Court 7.6% Development Services 5.4% Streets 5.0% Parks 3.7% Library 7.6% Solid Waste 14.1% Transfers to Other Funds 7.0% Non-Departmental General Fund Expenditures by Department P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 16 133 Item 13. Enterprise Fund The Enterprise Fund is made up of utility departments including Water, Wastewater, and Electric. Expenditures include daily operations of the utilities, capital improvements, debt service on bonds for capital improvements as well as transfers to the Internal Service Fund and the Electric Storm Recovery Fund. One increase we have to absorb in the electric utility is the increase in transmission and congestion costs we pay. These costs are regulated by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) and are used partially to help pay for new transmission lines from West Texas to other parts of the State. The city engaged NewGen Strategies & Solutions, an independent consulting firm, several years ago to make recommendations for rates for the next five years. Council responded to the recommendations by making adjustments to utility billing rates and plans to follow NewGen’s recommendations. In 2025, the City engaged NewGen once again to update the City’s rate study. This year’s budget is based on their recommended utility rates. Water 20% Waste Water 20%Electric 56% Penalties and Fees 1% Miscellaneous 3% Enterprise Fund Revenues by Type 15.8% Water 6.4% Waste Water 46.9% Electric 2.8% Customer Service 13.7% Debt Service 14.4% Transfers to Other Funds Enterprise Fund Expenditures by Department Internal Service Fund The Internal Service Fund includes departments with responsibilities in both the General and Enterprise Funds. The Internal Service Fund allows us to show the department's entire budget in one place, making it more transparent and easier to manage. The departments include Non-Departmental costs, City Council, Administration, City Secretary, Public Works, Finance, Human Resources, Marketing, and Facilities Maintenance. Instead of having a separate budget for each fund, those departments have a single budget in the Internal Service Fund. This makes it easier for the reader to see the true cost of the department without having to look in two different places. It also streamlines cost allocation internally. Economic Development Funds Under Texas Law, certain municipal governments can establish Economic Development Corporations for the purposes of attracting economic development and other limited purposes. These corporations are overseen by boards appointed by the City Council. Sanger is one of the few Cities that has both a 4A and 4B Economic Development Corporation. Both of these corporations receive revenues from a separate ½ cent sales tax. This sales tax generates over $900,000 each year for each of the corporations. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 17 134 Item 13. Thanks to these two boards the City of Sanger has been able to provide economic development incentives and make park and recreation improvements that it simply could not afford otherwise. While these funds can only be used for limited purposes, having them frees up revenues for other purposes. Debt Service Fund and Capital Projects Funds Long-term, property tax-funded debt is paid from the Debt Service Fund The Capital Projects Funds are where expenditures on Capital Projects are paid. (There are separate funds for General Capital Projects and Enterprise Capital Projects.) Both debt service and capital projects funds serve as internal service funds used for accounting purposes. Hotel/Motel Tax Fund The expenditure of hotel occupancy tax (HOT) funds is tightly regulated by state law. To ensure that these funds are spent appropriately, they are placed in a separate fund and not commingled with the General Fund. This budget also provides up to $20,000 a year in HOT taxes to the Sanger Chamber of Commerce for marketing. Strategic Planning The City’s Comprehensive Plan contains several strategic goals that guide budgeting through a program of strategic planning for results. Each year, these goals help determine items included in the annual budget. Each Department identified in this budget references the specific comprehensive plan goals that are supported by the operations of that department. A few of these are discussed below for the current year. Street Network - Several years ago, the City developed a multi-year plan to improve aged streets in the City. The 2025- 2026 Phase of this plan is included in the budget, providing $362.000 for street improvements. Country Atmosphere – The budgets of several departments, including Police, Animal Control, Fire, Parks and Administration incorporate the goal of maintaining and improving upon the existing county living atmosphere of Sanger. Looking Toward the Future The Dallas-Fort Worth area continues to add new residents each year. According to the U.S. Census Bureau population estimates, six of the US counties with the largest population growth are located in Texas. We believe this makes Sanger a prime candidate for growth as the DFW area continues to attract new businesses and residents. The northern cities of the DFW area continue to see much growth, and many people are choosing to live in a northern suburb and drive south for work. Easy access via I-35 makes Sanger an excellent choice for people looking to live in a smaller community. The Texas Department of Transportation estimates that 75,000 vehicles travel through Sanger on I-35 every day. Sanger has grown from a railroad stop established in the 1880s into a thriving community that offers residents the best of both worlds: big-city opportunities combined with small-town charm. Sanger’s population has more than doubled in the past 20 years, growing from 4,534 in 2000 to an estimated 10,166 in 2025.

Sanger continues to be an attractive destination for residential and commercial developers alike. In the past few years, Sanger has welcomed a new Holiday Inn Express hotel, QuickTrip, and Starbucks. A new 50,000 square-foot Tom Thumb grocery store is scheduled to open in December 2025. The combination of the population growth of the DFW area, Sanger’s ideal position for commuters who want to live in a smaller community, and new business ventures in Sanger point to a bright future for our city. Conclusion This budget document complies with the “Annual Budget” section of the City’s Financial Management Policy (page 199) in all areas. The fiscal condition of the City is strong. The commitment to conservative financial policies has positioned Sanger well for the future. This budget again demonstrates a conservative approach to assist us in remaining financially stable. It reflects our commitment to improving the community where we can by utilizing outlays for additions and improvements to amenities and infrastructure, as well as the maintenance of existing assets. Information on the City’s current and past year budgets, as well as other financial information, is available on the City’s website at https://www.sangertexas.org/page/finance_transparency. I would like to thank Chief Financial Officer Clayton Gray for the work he has done in the preparation of this budget, and for providing the historical data on the funds presented. I would like to thank our department heads. They have done a tremendous job of managing their departments through the immense challenges of the past several years by working as a team to provide our community with the highest level of service. I also want to thank the Mayor and Council for their support and leadership. Staff looks forward to working with you all during the implementation of this budget.

STRATEGIC PLANNING FOR RESULTS 20 20 20 RESULTS STRATEGIES VISION The guiding PURPOSE of the municipal government of the City of Sanger is to preserve, protect, and enhance the quality of life for the citizens of Sanger. This underlying purpose drives everything City Council and staff do. To give VISION to the City’s guiding purpose, the Sanger City Council has adopted a Strategic Plan (page 21) and the Sanger 2040 Comprehensive Plan (page 22) to guide City operations. These items are meant to give overall direction to City leadership as it plans for the future. The City develops STRATEGIES to implement this vision for the City. The Annual Budget, Capital Improvement Plan, and departmental goals are means by which the vision becomes a plan. The City’s Annual Budget and Capital Improvement Plan have been developed according to this strategy. The City of Sanger’s desired RESULTS are to provide quality services to residents, maintain and improve our infrastructure, and develop positive relationships with our citizens. To effectively measures results, departmental Performance Measures (page 23- 36) have been developed to report activity to ensure operations are in step with the City’s guiding purpose and vision. 20 PURPOSE P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 20 137 Item 13. CITY COUNCIL STRATEGIC PLAN In 2023, the Sanger City Council adopted a plan to provide guidance for the future which included a specific set of strategic goals, which are tangible directives to guide the development of the City. These seven goals are general statements of the community’s desired ultimate physical, social, economic, and environmental status.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES Performance measures enable the City to collect information about operational activities, community conditions, and other factors in order to make informed decisions regarding services. They provide a tangible way to set goals and monitor progress of those goals. The use of performance measures allows management to make decisions that are supported by evidence. For instance, performance measures are reviewed as a step in the budget process to help determine service levels, staffing, and allocation of expenditures. During this fiscal year, each department worked with the City Manager to review current measures and to develop new measures to provide the best information for making informed decisions going forward. To ensure the relevancy of the measures, each performance measure is tied to a departmental objective, and each departmental objective is tied to one of the visionary goals set by the City Council.

LONG-RANGE FINANCIAL PLANNING CONSIDERATION OF GROWTH FACTORS FROM THE PAST TEN YEARS The City’s long-range financial operating financial planning model takes into consideration a number of factors affecting the city’s continued growth. Key growth indicators affecting both revenue and expenses are presented below, indicating the increase over ten years from 2014 through 2024. Factor 2014 2024 Growth Population - Denton County continues to see record numbers of new residents each year 6,916 10,071 46% Number of Residential Housing Units - The increasing population drives the development of new neighborhoods. 2,194 3,282 50% Number of Electric Utility Accounts - New construction in Sanger Electric's service area increases the number of customers 2,614 2,806 7% Number of Water Utility Accounts - - New construction in Sanger Electric's service area increases the number of customers 2,596 3,631 40% Number of Waste Water Utility Accounts - - New construction in Sanger Electric's service area increases the number of customers 2,478 3,454 39% Number of Property Tax Parcels - As open land is developed, the number of both residential and commercial parcels increase each year 3,847 4,865 26% Taxable Property Valuation - A continued strong real estate market and market demand continue to increase property values 431,459,694$ 1,373,407,440$ 218% Property Tax Revenues - As both the number of parcels and valuations rise each year, property tax revenues increase 2,817,529$ 7,061,026$ 151% Sales Tax Revenues - Growth of commercial enterprises combined with an increasing population result in higher sales taxes 1,358,531$ 3,388,067$ 149% I-35 Estimated Daily Traffic Count - Interstate 35 runs through Sanger, brining many visitors each day through our city 56,742 75,443 33% P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 37 154 Item 13. ASSUMPTIONS FOR REVENUE FORECASTING An increasing population will lead to increased revenues in the following areas: Charges for Services –An increased number of customers for electric, water, and wastewater services. The City has engaged NewGen Strategies and Solutions to determine and forecast electric, water, and waste water rates. The most recent rate study was performed in 2025 and goes through 2030. Property Taxes – As the city grows, open land is divided into individual parcels for development. Continued high demand for new construction (both residential and commercial) result in increasing property tax revenues. The Texas State Senate passed Senate Bill 2 in 2019, making sweeping changes to the taxing process. The law restricts the amount of property tax increase allowed each year, which can greatly hinder a growing community like Sanger. The City works closely with the Denton Central Appraisal District and the Denton County Tax Assessor/Collector each year in updating revenue forecasts. Sales Taxes – The combination of a growing population and an increased number of commercial enterprises result in increased sales tax revenues for Sanger. The City works closely with our Economic Development department to understand how new businesses coming to Sanger will affect sales tax revenues. For instance, the Sanger’s first Starbucks and first QT store opened in 2023. A new Tom Thumb grocery store is scheduled to open in December 2026. Once road construction is complete on I-35 and FM 455 through the City, more businesses are expected to open along those throughfares. Fines, Fees, Licenses & Permits – Combined licenses, fees, fines, and permits historically account for about ten percent of the General Fund revenues. Increased population, development, density, and road traffic are factors affecting the growth of these revenue areas. ASSUMPTIONS FOR EXPENDITURE FORECASTING Salaries & Benefits – The City considers employees the most important of all assets. The City recently engaged Public Sector Personnel Consultants to prepare a compensation study. On June 3, 2024, the City Council adopted a new salary schedule based on that study's results. The latest schedule made adjustments to positions that were below market grade. In addition to these adjustments, this budget includes a 4% allotment for raised during the year. The City participates in the Texas Municipal Retirement System, offering a 2:1 matching ratio to employee contributions. Supplies & Materials – As Sanger grows, operations will demand that the consumption of supplies and materials increase accordingly. While these items are typically estimated to increase five percent each year, the current period of high post-Covid inflation have resulted in much higher prices in some categories. We continue to monitor costs, searching for the most cost-efficient means of obtaining the necessary items for operations. Maintenance & Operations – Overall, maintenance and operations costs are assumed to increase at a rate of fiver percent each year. The combined effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and inflation have resulted in much higher prices in some categories, and the City is exploring cost-efficient means of providing necessary items. Capital Expenditures – As Sanger grows, there is a need for new capital expenditures – including new streets, expanding utility systems, and other infrastructure to maintain the current levels of service offered to the citizens and businesses in our city. The City’s Capital Improvement Plan is updated each year to give the most accurate forecast of needs over the next five years.

THE BUDGET PROCESS The City of Sanger's fiscal year begins on October 1st and ends on September 30th of the following calendar year. This fiscal year establishes both the budget year and the accounting year. The budget is developed at a departmental level. In March, the Chief Financial Officer develops worksheets that detail expenditures for the past four years, year-to-date balances as of March 31st, and projected totals through the end of the current fiscal year. These worksheets are distributed to individual departments for review and completion. Each department prepares an estimate for their projected totals through the end of the fiscal year and estimates for the upcoming year. For any increases or additions of new items to the budget, departments will document the justification for the requested increases. Once the departments have completed the worksheets, they are returned with any supporting documentation to the Finance Director. The City Manager and the Chief Financial Officer meet with each Department Director individually to review the budget worksheets. The City Manager and all City Directors meet an entire day to review each department’s budget requests for the coming year. Directors work with the City Manager during individual and group meetings to identify long-range planning and goal-setting. As the budget process progresses, the City Manager works with departments to focus on these goals and plans to ensure they align with the City’s overall goals. Revenues are projected based on historical trends, the current economic climate, and expected future trends. Personnel expenses are prepared based on the current year and adjusted as necessary for staffing changes or changes in the cost of benefits. Utility expenses are projected based on the current and prior years, modified where applicable due to utility rate changes or changes to City facilities. During the budget process, it is essential to consider the present, past, and future. Current conditions for this budget include the number of utility customers the City serves, the staffing level required to provide services to citizens, and how the post-Covid period of high inflation has affected the City’s operating costs. The past holds valuable information, including historical trends of sales tax revenues and the rate of change in property values for property tax projections. Future considerations include the number of new houses expected to be built in the next twelve months, the number and size of businesses scheduled to open soon, and planned development along the I-35 corridor that runs through Sanger. To help prepare for the future, this budget contains a five-year projected budget for the General Fund. The departmental budget worksheets are combined with revenues, personnel, and utility expenses to prepare a working budget, which the City Manager reviews. The City Manager and the Chief Financial Officer meet with each department to review and discuss the requested budget in detail. These meetings assist the City Manager in determining budget priorities. The Denton County Chief Appraiser will certify the tax roll during July, allowing the City to propose a tax rate and estimate property tax revenues. A series of public budget workshops are held with the City Council, allowing for citizen input for the budget process. These workshops allow the City Council to formulate its priorities for the proposed budget. Following these workshops, the proposed budget is formulated. This proposed budget is filed with the City Secretary before the end of August and is published on the City’s website for citizen review. Public hearings on the proposed budget and property tax rate are scheduled to allow for citizen input. Following the public hearings, the budget may be adopted at any regular or special meeting of the City council prior to the beginning of the fiscal year. On final adoption, the budget is in effect for the budget year. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 42 159 Item 13. During the year, the City Council may amend or change the budget to provide for any additional expense. Section 9.05 of the City’s Charter states “Under conditions which may arise and which could not reasonably have been foreseen in the normal process of planning the budget, the Council may, by a majority vote of the full membership, amend or change the budget to provide for any additional expenses in which the general welfare of the citizenry is involved. These amendments shall be by ordinance, and shall become an attachment to the original budget.” The citizens of Sanger play an important role in development of the budget. By communicating with the City Council and staff throughout the year, the public directly affect the strategic goals that form the basis for development of the budget. Public participation and input during the budget workshops help ensure the final budget supports the strategic goals set by Council. In February and August, the City Manager and the Chief Financial Officer meet individually with each Department Director to compare operations year to date with the annual budget.

ABOUT SANGER OVERVIEW The City of Sanger, Texas was incorporated in 1886 and operates under a Council-Manager form of government. The City provides general government, public safety, public works, culture and recreation, water, sewer and electricity operations to citizens. LOCATION Sanger is strategically located along in Northern Denton County and occupies 10.9 square miles along Interstate 35. The city’s location, services and amenities make it a wonderful place to live. Uniquely situated 50 miles from both Dallas and Fort Worth, Sanger offers residents the amenities of a major metropolitan area while retaining a small-town quality of life. In addition, the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport is 38 miles away. Sanger is located minutes from the shores of Lake Ray Roberts, the 6th largest lake in Texas. Sanger is also located in “horse country”, as Denton County has more working horse ranches than any other county in the United States. HISTORY During the rapid expansion of railroads following the Civil War, the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe Railway grew from South Texas northward, through the area that is today known as Sanger. The railroad selected a spot between Fort Worth and Gainesville for a new stop. The railroad had two reasons for selecting this particular spot. First, the steam locomotives of the day required frequent stops to replenish the engine’s water supply. Second, this spot was close to the Chisholm Trail. Cattle drives were a major economic activity at the time and the Chisholm Trail was the most important route for cattle drives leaving Fort Worth. In a relatively short time, the railroad would replace the Chisholm Trail as the means for moving cattle north out of Texas. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 46 163 Item 13. In 1886, the railroad purchased land from Mrs. Elizabeth Huling of Lampasas, Texas and built a one-room depot, cattle pens and loading chute on the site. Mrs. Huling hired two surveyors to lay out a town around the railroad stop, and she donated land for a wagon yard, water well, school, town square, cemetery, and a church. Lots were laid out for stores and homes, and lots were given to anyone who would build a house costing at least $500. The city was originally named Huling in her honor. The community’s name was changed to New Bolivar for a short time. The railroad officially named the town Sanger in 1887 in honor of railroad customers Lehman, Isaac, Alex, Sam and Philp Sanger. Pioneers in the dry goods wholesale and resale industry in Texas, the Sanger Brothers built a chain of stores in railroad towns to utilize the trains to move merchandise. Although the city was named in their honor, the Sanger Brothers never lived in the city or operated a store here. Rail service began when the first trains came through in 1887. Cattle began loading the trains as soon as service to Kansas City was established. The first residents of the area were Francis and Melissa Ready and their daughter Molly. In the spring of 1887, the family sought refuge from a snow storm in the depot as they were passing through, and decided to stay. The family built a one-room cabin, and Mrs. Ready cooked meals for the cowboys who drove the cattle to the pens. Mr. Ready later built a hotel near the pens, and operated a post office in the lobby after he was commissioned postmaster. The City of Sanger was incorporated in 1892 and William E. Partlow was elected the first Mayor of Sanger. Business thrived in the following years and led to the growth of the City. Thanks to a large mill and grain elevator, Sanger became a large farming community. At some point, a fire destroyed the depot and the railroad built a new station that included a larger depot building, waiting rooms, a Western Union telegraph office, and a Wells Fargo freight office. The depot operated 24 hours a day, 6 days a week. Around 1900, ranchers began trucking cattle to Fort Worth instead of shipping them to Kansas City. At the time when the trains stopped shipping cattle, resourceful individuals began using the railroad to ship dairy cream to Fort Worth and Ardmore, Oklahoma. Texas State Highway 40 ran through the area and became a portion of US Route 77 in 1929. Interstate 35 was built along the route in the early 1960’s. As the railroad replaced the cattle trail, the highway system replaced the railway as the conduit that brought visitors and business to Sanger. The years following World War II saw the decline of railroads nationwide, and the Sanger depot eventually closed. Interstate 35 serves the heartland of America, running from South Texas to Minnesota. According to the Texas Department of Transportation, more than 50,000 vehicles pass through Sanger on I-35 daily.

Water revenues of $3,564,849 are an increase of $584,849 (20%) over last year’s projection of $2,980,000. Revenues have steadily grown through the years, resulting from both increasing population and occasional changes in the rate structure. Water revenues are expected to rise in future years due to the continued growth of our community’s population.

OVERVIEW OF MAJOR EXPENDITURE CATEGORIES Sanger is a growing community, as evidenced by the fact that our population has more than doubled since 2000.

Capital Expenses During the budget process, capital items are identified and considered for inclusion in the budget. These items may be identified by individual City departments, the City Manager, or by the City Council. Capital projects must be clearly defined and the need explained in order to make it into the budget. Through meetings between the City Manager and Directors and in City Council workshops, these projects are discussed. Those projects identified as necessary are then places on a timeline – which will determine if they are included in the current budget or in a future budget. The Capital Projects section of this document explains this in more detail and includes a five-year future schedule of currently planned projects. With a total of $11,451,741, Capital Expenditures account for 21% of total expenditures. The bulk of this amount ($8,732,000) is budgeted in the Capital Projects Fund.

For 2024-25, the City’s adopted tax rate was $0.568912 per $100 assessed valuation for maintenance and operations plus $0.120835 per $100 assessed valuation for debt service, equaling $0.689747, which is well below the maximum rates allowed by law. For 2025-26, a tax rate of $0.689747 is proposed once again. The basis of accounting for the Debt Service Fund for both financial reporting and budgeting is the modified accrual basis.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN INTRODUCTION This plan addresses capital improvement needs in the City of Sanger over the next five years and funding sources for projects expected in FY 2025--26. Infrastructure remains a priority for Sanger. Over the past several years more and more resources have been dedicated to infrastructure maintenance and replacement and several projects have been completed. While the city’s Street Rehabilitations Project continues to be funded for basic maintenance and repaving of roadways, this year the city will embark on the critical planning and design phases of a the more comprehensive Street and Utility Maintenance Program. (SUMP) The SUMP program is the city’s long-term plan to replace aging street, water, sewage, and drainage infrastructure in a more cohesive and comprehensive manner. This program is designed to serve Sanger for decades to come. As Sanger continues to experience growth the City’s focus remains on improving the infrastructure needed to support development. In 2023, Council approved the issuance of $15,215,000 for the purchase of approximately 450 acres of real property for future development, including future water, wastewater, and electric system improvements.

City has completed all principal utility relocations, and aesthetic elements have been approved by all parties. Enterprise Capital Projects In 2025 The City Council approved an agreement with Brazos Electric for the expansion of the electric substation allowing additional capacity for future growth. As a result of the new capacity the city will be upgrading several of our distribution circuits. This is a multiyear project. In anticipation of future needs the Sanger has approved a water site study to determine long-range capacity and possible local treatment options. As water demand increases with local and regional growth, the city is working to better manage water resources by identifying and protecting future sources for the community. Several other system improvements (water, wastewater, and electric) are scheduled for FY 2025-26 such as replacing several sewer lines and installing additional bays at the electric substation. Streets and Thoroughfares: For 2025-2026, work will continue on the Marion Road and Belz Road arterial projects. City anticipates completion of design phases and any property acquisition required for these projects this fiscal year. In addition, the City has also allocated funding towards package developments for Council’s consideration for the Street Utility Maintenance Program (SUMP). Parks and Facilities: Construction design costs for Miracle Field and Porter Park Phase II are included in this year’s budget. This is a continuation of the City Council’s commitment to quality of life and available space for the health and wellness of our citizens. Funds are also being allocated towards a new Joint Public Safety facility as the city continues to identify the best location for the facility in coordination with Denton County. The proposed Senior Center, as well as the Community Center renovations, have also been funded in this plan. CONCLUSION Sanger continues to be committed to public safety and the quality of life of our community. Many of the projects that are funded by the City Council will go unseen to most citizens but they all directly impact the quality of life in the community by ensuring reliable utilities, safe streets, and adequate public facilities. Like every City, we will continue the struggle of balancing needs and resources to maintain current facilities and infrastructure, prepare for growth, and improve the quality of life in our community.

DEPARTMENTAL CAPITAL REQUESTS To request departmental capital expenditures, City Department Directors complete a request form for each requested expenditure. These requests and supporting documentation are reviewed during individual and group budget planning meetings. A review of the items includes a discussion of any available alternatives to the requested items. In requesting a capital item, Directors must tie the request to the City’s Organizational Goals, explain the objective of the request, offer alternatives to funding the request, and document the expected impact of not funding the item. The City Manager reviews all capital requests to determine if they are in sync with City Council goals and the City’s strategic plan. The following are the original requests submitted which are included in the current budget that have been approved. Some requests have been approved as submitted, some have been approved with modifications, and some were not approved for the current year.

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT POLICY *The Sanger City Council approved the City’s Financial Management Policy on September 2, 2025 Introduction The City of Sanger, Texas financial policies set forth the basic framework for the fiscal management of the City. These policies were developed within the parameters established by applicable provisions of the Texas Local Government Code and the Sanger City Charter. The policies are intended to assist the City Council and city staff in evaluating current activities and proposals for future programs. The policies are to be reviewed on an annual basis and modified to accommodate changing circumstances or conditions. The scope of these policies generally spans accounting, auditing, financial reporting, internal controls, operating and capital budgeting, revenue management, expenditure control and debt management, all to make it possible both: (a) to present fairly and with full disclosure the financial position and results of financial operations of the City in conformity to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and (b) to determine and demonstrate compliance with finance- related legal and contractual provisions. It is the goal of the Statement of Financial Management Policies to enable the City to adhere to the principles of sound municipal finance and to continue its long-term stable and positive financial condition. Annual Budget 1. The fiscal year of the City of Sanger shall begin on October 1 of each calendar year and will end on September 30 of the following calendar year. The fiscal year will also be established as the accounting and budget year. 2. The City Manager, prior to August first of each year, shall prepare and submit to the City Secretary the annual budget covering the next fiscal year. The budget shall provide a complete financial plan of all city funds and activities and, except as required by law or the City Charter, shall be in such form as the Council may require. The budget shall contain the following information: a. The City Manager’s budget message outlining the proposed financial policies for the next fiscal year with an explanation of any changes in expenditures from the previous year, any major changes in policies, and a complete statement regarding the financial condition of the City. (Proposition 1 approved at an election held November 7, 2006 and certified by Resolution 11-19-06 adopted November 20, 2006.) b. An estimate of all revenues from taxes and other sources, including the present tax structure, rates, and property valuations for the ensuing year; c. A carefully itemized list of proposed expenses and revenues by fund, service type, and project for the budget year, as compared to actual expenditures and revenues of the last ended fiscal year and the projected final expenditures and revenues for the current fiscal year; d. A description of all outstanding bond indebtedness, showing amount, date of issue, rate of interest, and maturity date; also, any other indebtedness which the City has incurred and which has not been paid; e. A statement proposing any capital expenditures deemed necessary for undertaking during the next budget year and the recommended provision for financing; and f. Such other information as is required by City Council or deemed desirable by the City Manager. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 199 316 Item 13. 3. The City Manager’s budget should assume, for each fund, operating revenues that are equal to or exceed operating expenditures (i.e., a balanced budget). The City Manager’s budget message shall explain the reasons for any fund that reflects operating expenditures exceeding operating revenues. 4. The City Council shall hold a public hearing on the budget, as submitted, at the time and place so advertised in the official newspaper, which will be no less than seven (7) days or more than fifteen (15) days after the date of notice. All interested persons shall be given the opportunity to be heard, either for or against, any item of the proposed budget. 5. The budget and tax rate may be adopted at any regular or special meeting of the Council prior to the beginning of the budgeted fiscal year by a majority vote of two thirds (2/3) quorum. The Council may amend the proposed budget by increasing, decreasing, or removing any programs or amounts, except for expenditures required by law, for debt service, or for estimated cash deficit. No amendment to the budget shall increase the authorized expenditures to an amount greater than the total of estimated income plus funds available from prior years. 6. If the Council fails to adopt a budget by the beginning of the fiscal year, the budget currently in place for the preceding year shall remain in place on a month-to-month basis until such time as a new budget has been adopted. 7. On final adoption, the budget shall be in effect for the budget year. Final adoption of the budget by the City Council shall constitute the official appropriations for the current year and shall constitute the basis of the official levy of the property tax. Under conditions which may arise, the City Council may amend or change the budget to provide for any additional expense. Capital Program 1. The City Manager shall submit a five-year capital improvement program (CIP) as an attachment to the annual budget. The CIP shall induce the following: a. A clear, general summary of its contents; b. A list of all capital improvements which are proposed for the five (5) fiscal years including the budget year, with appropriate supporting information as to the necessity for such improvements; c. Cost estimates, method of financing and recommended time schedules for each improvement; and d. The estimated annual cost of operating and maintaining the facilities to be constructed or acquired. Basis of Accounting and Budgeting 1. The City’s finances shall be accounted for in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). a. The accounts of the City are organized and operated on the basis of funds and account groups. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance-related legal and contractual provisions. The minimum number of funds is maintained consistent with legal and managerial requirements. Account groups are a reporting device to account for certain assets and liabilities of the governmental funds not recorded directly in those funds. b. Governmental fund types use the flow of current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they are “measurable and available”). “Measurable” means the amount of the transaction can be determined and “available” means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. Substantially all revenues are considered to be susceptible to accrual. Ad valorem, sales, hotel, franchise and tax P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 200 317 Item 13. revenues recorded in the General Fund and ad valorem tax revenues recorded in the Debt Service Fund are recognized under the susceptible to accrual concept. Licenses and permits, charges for services, fines and forfeitures, and miscellaneous revenues (except earnings on investments) are recorded as revenues when received in cash because they are generally not measurable until actually received. Investment earnings are recorded as earned since they are measurable and available. Expenditures are recognized when the related fund liability is incurred, if measurable, except for principal and interest on general long-term debt, which are recorded when due, and compensated absences, which are recorded when payable from currently available financial resources. c. The City utilizes encumbrance accounting for its governmental fund types, under which purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation. d. The City’s proprietary fund types are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recorded when earned, and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred. 2. The City’s annual budgets shall be prepared and adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles for all governmental and proprietary funds 3. The issuance of Statement 34 by GASB has influenced the creation and reporting of individual funds. GASB 34 essentially mandates dual accounting systems: one for government-wide (i.e. the government as a single entity) reporting and another for individual fund reporting. Under GASB 34 for individual funds, the City will continue utilizing the accounting and budgeting processes as described in paragraphs (1) and (2) of this section. However, because GASB 34 mandates the flow of economic resources measurement focus and accrual basis of accounting for the government-wide reporting, extensive reconciliation must be performed to present aggregated fund information in the government-wide reporting model. Therefore, individual operating funds will be created with the objective of reducing fund to government-wide reconciliation as much as possible. When appropriate, individual funds will be examined as to whether it will be appropriate to account for them as proprietary fund types. Also, the City will limit the use of internal service funds and incorporate the financial transactions of those funds into other governmental funds. Budget Administration 1. All expenses of the City shall be made in accordance with the adopted annual budget. Budgetary control is maintained at the individual expenditure account level by the review of all requisitions of estimated purchase amounts prior to the release of purchase orders to vendors. 2. The following represents the City’s budget amendment policy delineating responsibility and authority for the amendment process. Transfers between expenditure accounts in one department may occur with the approval of the City Manager and Finance Director Transfers between operating departments may occur with the approval of the City manager and Finance Director provided that a department’s total budget is not changed by more than $50,000. Transfers between funds must be accomplished by budget amendment approved by the City Council. Budget amendments calling for new fund appropriations must also be approved by the City Council. Financial Reporting 1. At the close of each fiscal year, and at such other times as it may be deemed necessary, the Council shall direct that an independent audit be made on all accounts of the City by a certified public accountant. The certified public accountant shall have no personal interest directly or indirectly, in the financial affairs of the City P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 201 318 Item 13. or any of its officers and shall report directly to the Council. Upon completion of the audit, a summary of the results thereof shall be placed on file in the City Secretary's office for public record. A copy of the comprehensive financial annual report shall be available at City Hall. 2. The City Manager shall submit to the Council a monthly report of the financial condition of the City by department for the fiscal year-to-date. The financial records of the City will be maintained on a modified accrual basis to support this type of financial management. The City Manager shall make available to the Council the monthly cash disbursements journal of the City of all funds and accounts. Revenues 1. To protect the City’s financial integrity, the City will maintain a diversified and stable revenue system to shelter it from fluctuations in any one revenue source. Recognizing that sales tax is a volatile, unpredictable source of revenue, the City will attempt to reduce its dependence on sales tax revenue. 2. For every annual budget, the City shall levy two property tax rates: operation/ maintenance and debt service. The debt service levy shall be sufficient for meeting all principal and interest payments associated with the City’s outstanding general obligation debt for that budget year. The debt service levy and related debt service expenditures shall be accounted for in the Debt Service Fund. The operation and maintenance levy shall be accounted for in the General Fund. City Council will consider exceeding the rollback rate only after options have been presented by staff to avoid the rollback by increasing revenue from other sources or reducing expenditures. 3. The City will maintain a policy of levying the lowest tax rate on the broadest tax base. Minimal exemptions may be provided to homeowners, senior citizens, and disabled veterans. The City may consider providing tax abatements or other incentives to encourage development. 4. The City will establish user charges and fees at a level that attempts to recover the full cost of providing the service. a. User fees, particularly utility rates, should identify the relative costs of serving different classes of customers. b. Where possible, utility rates should be designed to reduce peak (hour and day) demands on the utility systems. c. The City will make every reasonable attempt to ensure accurate measurement of variables impacting taxes and fees (e.g., verification of business sales tax payments, verification of appraisal district property values, and accuracy of water meters). 5. The City will attempt to maximize the application of its financial resources by obtaining supplementary funding through agreements with other public and private agencies for the provision of public services or the construction of capital improvements. 6. The City will consider market rates and charges levied by other public and private organizations for similar services in establishing tax rates, fees and charges. 7. When developing the annual budget, the City Manager shall project revenues from every source based on actual collections from the preceding year and estimated collections of the current fiscal year, while taking into account known circumstances which will impact revenues for the new fiscal year. The revenue projections for each fund should be made conservatively so that total actual fund revenues exceed budgeted projections. Operating Expenditures 1. Operating expenditures shall be accounted, reported, and budgeted for in the following major categories: a. Operating, Recurring Expenditures P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 202 319 Item 13. i. Salaries and Benefits ii. Supplies and Materials iii. Maintenance and Operations iv. Contractual Services v. Utilities vi. Capital Replacement vii. Other Expenses b. Operating, Non-Recurring Expenditures i. Capital Equipment 2. The annual budget shall appropriate sufficient funds for operating, recurring expenditures necessary to maintain established (i.e., status quo) quality and scope of city services. 3. The City will constantly examine the methods for providing public services in order to reduce operating, recurring expenditures and/or enhance quality and scope of public services with no increase to cost. 4. Salaries and benefits expenditures will reflect the minimum staffing needed to provide established quality and scope of city services. To attract and retain employees necessary for providing high-quality service, the City shall maintain a compensation and benefit package competitive with the public and, when quantifiable, private service industries. 5. Supplies and materials expenditures shall be sufficient for ensuring the optimal productivity of City employees. 6. Maintenance and operations expenditures shall be sufficient for addressing the deterioration of the City’s capital assets to ensure the optimal productivity of the capital assets. Maintenance should be conducted to ensure a relatively stable level of maintenance expenditures for every budget year. 7. Utility expenditure providers shall, when options are available, be selected on the basis of the provider’s competitive pricing and service. 8. The City will utilize contractual services for the provision of city services whenever private contractors can perform the established level of service at less expense to the City. The City will regularly evaluate its agreements with private contractors to ensure the established levels of service are performed at the least expense to the City. 9. Capital equipment is defined as equipment that exceeds $5,000 and has a useful life of at least one year. Bulk purchases of smaller equipment with a useful life of at least one year will be capitalized if the total amount of the purchase exceeds $25,000. Existing capital equipment shall be replaced when needed to ensure the optimal productivity of City employees. 10. Expenditures for additional capital equipment shall be made only to enhance employee productivity, improve quality of service, or expand scope of service. 11. Expenditures for other expenses not included in the categories above shall be made strictly on the basis of economic and business merit, ensuring the best possible return on each dollar spent. 12. To assist in controlling the growth of operating expenditures, operating departments will submit their annual budgets to the City Manager during the budget preparation process. Departments shall provide justification where projected expenditures exceed prior year budgeted amounts. Fund Balance 1. The annual budget shall be presented to City Council with each fund reflecting an ending fund balance which is no less than 25 percent of that fund’s annual operating expenditures. To satisfy the particular needs of individual funds, ending fund balances may be established which exceed the 25 percent minimum. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 203 320 Item 13. 2. Fund balance that exceeds the minimum level established for each fund may be appropriated for non-recurring capital projects or programs, reserves or as the Council directs. 3. The City will exercise diligence in avoiding the appropriation of fund balance for recurring operating expenditures. In the event fund balance is appropriated for recurring operating expenditures to meet the needs of the Sanger community, the budget document shall include an explanation of the circumstances requiring the appropriation and the methods to be used to arrest the future use of fund balance for operating expenditures. Fund Transfers 1. With the exceptions noted below, there will be no operating transfers between funds. Any costs incurred by one fund to support the operations of another shall be charged directly to the fund. 2. Fund transfers may occur when surplus fund balances are used to support non-recurring capital expenses or when needed to satisfy debt service obligations. 3. Transfers are permitted between funds to support economic development programs. 4. Transfers are permitted from the Enterprise Fund to other funds to cover the cost of operations. Debt Expenditures 1. The City shall have the right and power, except as prohibited by law or the City Charter, to borrow money by whatever method it may deem to be in the public interest. 2. The City shall have the power to borrow money on the credit of the City and to issue general obligation bonds for permanent public improvements or for any other public purpose not prohibited by law and the City Charter and to issue refunding bonds to refinance outstanding bonds previously issued. All such bonds or certificates of obligation shall be issued in conformity with the laws of the State of Texas and shall be used only for purposes for which they were issued. General obligation bonds shall not be issued without an election. In all cases when the City Council shall order an election for the issuance of bonds of the City, it shall, at the same time, state whether or not a tax rate increase is anticipated for the purpose of paying the principal and interest on the bonds and to create a sinking fund for their redemption. 3. The City shall have the power to borrow money for the purpose of constructing, purchasing, improving, extending or repairing public utilities, recreational facilities, or any other self-liquidating municipal function not prohibited by the Constitution and the laws of the State of Texas, and to issue revenue bonds to evidence the obligation created thereby. Such shall be a charge upon and payable from the properties, or interest therein pledged, or the income therefrom, or both. The holders of the revenue bonds shall never have the right to demand payment thereof out of moneys raised or to be raised by taxation. All such bonds shall be issued in conformity with the laws of the State of Texas and shall be used only for the purpose for which they were issued. 4. When needed to minimize annual debt payments, the City will obtain insurance for new debt issues. Capital Project Expenditures 1. The City will develop a multi-year plan for capital projects, which identifies all projects likely to be constructed within a five-year horizon. The multi-year plan will reflect for each project the likely source of funding and attempt to quantify the project’s impact to future operating expenditures. 2. Capital projects will be constructed to: a. Protect or improve the community’s quality of life. b. Protect or enhance the community’s economic vitality. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 204 321 Item 13. c. Support and service new development. 3. To minimize the issuance of debt, the City will attempt to support capital projects with appropriations from operating revenues or excess fund balances (i.e., “pay-as-you-go”). Purchasing 1. All purchases and contracts over $3,000 shall conform to Chapter 252, Subchapter B of the Local Government Code of Texas, as amended. Purchases of goods or services over $50,000 shall be submitted to the City Council for approval. The adoption of the annual budget gives the City Manger the authority to approve all other purchases for goods or services in accordance with each department’s approved budget. 2. Purchases of goods or services at a total cost of $1,000 or more must be made through the City’s purchase order system. Written purchase orders shall also be used for vendors requiring formal City authorization regardless of dollar amount. 3. Purchases of goods or services at a total cost of less than $1,000 may be made via a written Accounts Payable Voucher, signed and submitted by the applicable Department Director to the Finance Department. 4. All invoices approved for payment by the proper City authorities shall be paid by the Finance Department within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt in accordance with provisions of Article 601f, Section 2 of the State of Texas Civil Statutes.

INVESTMENT POLICY *The Sanger City Council approved the City’s Investment Policy on September 2, 2025 POLICY STATEMENT It is the objective of the City of Sanger, Texas (“City”) that the administration of its funds and the investment of those funds shall be handled in the highest public trust. Investments shall be made in a manner which will provide the maximum security of principle invested through limitations and diversification while meeting the daily cash flow needs of the city and conforming to all applicable federal, state, and local statutes, rules and regulations governing the investment of public funds. The receipt of a market rate return will be secondary to the requirements for safety and liquidity. The earning from investments shall be used in a manner that best serves the public trust and interest of the City. This policy serves to satisfy the statutory requirements of defining and adopting a formal investment policy and shall be reviewed annually for modifications. It is the intent of the City to be in compliance with local law and the provisions of Public Funds Investment Act of the Texas Government Code Chapter 2256. SCOPE This Investment Policy applies to the investment activities, all financial assets and funds held by the City of Sanger, Texas. Funds covered and managed by this Investment Policy include: A. General Fund – Used to account for resources traditionally associated with government, which are not required to be accounted for in another fund. B. Debt Service Fund – Used to account for resources to be used for the payment of principle, interest and related costs on debt. C. Enterprise Fund – Used to account for operations that are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises. D. Capital Improvement Fund – Used to account for resources to enable the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities which are not financed by enterprise funds, internal service funds, or trust funds. E. Special Revenue Funds – Used to account for proceeds from specific revenue sources which are restricted to expenditures for specific purposes. 1. 4A Fund 2. 4B Fund 3. Employee Benefits Fund INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY It is the policy of the City that all funds shall be invested in conformance with state and federal regulations, applicable bond ordinance requirements, and adopted Investment Policy. In accordance with the Public Funds Investment Act, the following prioritized primary objectives, in accordance with the Texas Government Code Section 2256.005(d) apply to the City’s investment strategy. Listed in order of their priority, these objectives encompass: A. Suitability – Understanding the suitability of the investment to the financial requirement of the City is important. Any investment eligible in the Investment Policy is suitable for all City funds. B. Safety – Preservation and safety of principal are the primary objectives of the Investment Policy. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to insure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To obtain this goal, diversification is required in the portfolio’s composition. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 206 323 Item 13. The suitability of each investment decision will be made on the basis of these objectives. The City prefers to invest in money market accounts, certificates of deposits, and United States government backed agency discount notes. C. Liquidity – The City’s investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to meet operating requirements that might be reasonably anticipated. The City’s investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid and enable it to meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably anticipated. D. Diversification – Investment maturities shall be staggered throughout the budget cycle to provide cash flow based on the anticipated needs of the City. Diversifying the appropriate maturity structure will reduce market cycle risk. Diversification of the portfolio will include diversification by maturity and market sector and will include the use of a number of brokers/dealers for diversification and market coverage. Competitive bidding will be used on each sale and purchase. E. Yield – Attaining a competitive market yield, commensurate with the City’s investment risk constraints and cash flow characteristic of the portfolio, is the desired objective. The City’s investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles, taking into account the City’s risk constraints and the cash flow of the portfolio. “Market rate of return” may be defined as the average yield of the current three-month U.S. Treasury Bill or such other index that most closely matches the average maturity of the portfolio. The City’s objective shall be a reasonably safe yield rate in accordance with payment schedules and other investment goals. Effective cash management is recognized as essential to good fiscal management. Cash management is defined as the process of managing monies in order to ensure maximum cash availability. The City shall maintain a comprehensive cash management program which includes collection of accounts receivable, prudent investment of its available cash, disbursement of payments in accordance with invoice terms and the management of banking services. The City staff will follow the “Prudent Person” statement relating to the standard of care that must be exercised when investing public funds as expressed in the Texas Government Code Section 2256.006(a-b). The Investment Officers shall avoid any transactions that might impair public confidence in the City’s ability to govern effectively. The governing body recognizes that in diversifying the portfolio, occasional measured unrealized losses due to market volatility are inevitable, and must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio’s investment return, provided that adequate diversification has been implemented. The prudence of the investment decision shall be measured in accordance with the tests set forth in the Texas Government Code Section 2256.006(b). It shall be the policy of the City not to invest in speculative instruments such as derivatives. LEGAL LIMITATIONS, RESPONSIBILITIES AND AUTHORITY Direct specific investment parameters for the investment of public funds in Texas are found in the Public Funds Investment Act of the Texas Government Code Section 2256. The Interlocal Cooperation Contracts, Section 791, of the Texas Government Code authorizes local governments to participate in public funds investments in conjunction with other local governments and agencies of the state of Texas. Section 791 along with Section 2256 of the Texas Government Code provides authorization for participation in investment pools to invest public funds jointly with objectives of preservation and safety of principal, liquidity, and yield. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 207 324 Item 13. DELEGATION OF INVESTMENT AUTHORITY The City Manager and the Finance Director acting on behalf of the City Council are designated as the Investment Officers of the City and are responsible for investment management decisions and activities. The Council is responsible for considering the quality and capability of staff, investment advisors, and consultants involved in investment management and procedures. All participants in the investment process shall seek to act responsibly as custodians of the public trust. The Investment Officers shall develop and maintain written administrative procedures for the operation of the investment program which are consistent with the investment policy.

PRUDENCE – STANDARD OF CARE The standard of prudence to be used in the investment function shall be the “prudent person” standard and shall be applied in the context of managing the overall portfolio. The Texas Government Code Section 2256.006(a) states Investments shall be made with judgment 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. Limitation of Personal Liability The Investment Officers and those delegated investment authority under this policy, when acting in accordance with the written procedures and this policy and in accordance with the written procedures and this policy and in accord with the Prudent Person Rule, shall be relieved of personal responsibility and liability in the management of the portfolio provided that deviations from expectations for a specific security’s credit risk or market price change or portfolio shifts are reported in a timely manner and that appropriate action is taken to control adverse market effects. INTERNAL CONTROLS The Investment Officers shall establish a system of written internal controls which will be reviewed annually with the independent auditor of the City. The controls shall be designed to prevent losses of public funds arising from fraud, employee error, misrepresentation by third parties, unanticipated changes in financial markets, or imprudent actions by employees or Investment Officers of the City. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 208 325 Item 13. Cash Flow Forecasting Cash flow forecasting is designated to protect and sustain cash flow requirements of the City. Supplemental to the financial and budgetary systems, the Investment Officers will maintain a cash flow forecasting process designed to monitor and forecast cash positions for investment purposes. Cash flow will include the historical researching and monitoring of specific cash flow items, payables, and receivables as well as overall cash position and patters. AUTHORIZED INVESTMENTS Acceptable investments under this policy shall be limited to the instruments listed below. The investments shall be selected in a manner which promotes diversity of the market sector and maturity. The selection of high-grade government investments and high-grade money market instruments is designed to assure the marketability of those investments should the need for liquidity arise. A. Obligations of the United States Government, its agencies and instrumentalities, and government sponsoring enterprises, not to exceed two years to stated maturity; B. Fully insured or collateralized certificates of deposit from a bank doing business in the State of Texas and under the terms of a written depository agreement with that bank, not to exceed three years to the stated maturity; C.

Delivery versus Payment All security transactions, including collateral for repurchase agreements, entered into by the City, shall be conducted on a delivery versus payment (DVP) basis. SAFEKEEPING AND COLLATERALIZATION The laws of the State and prudent treasury management require that all purchased securities be bought on a delivery versus payment basis and be held in safekeeping by either the City, an independent third-party financial institution, or the City’s designated depository. All safekeeping arrangements shall be designed by the Investment Officers and an agreement of the terms executed in writing. The third-party custodian shall be required to issue safekeeping receipts to the City listing each specific security, rate, description, maturity, cusip number, and other pertinent information. Each safekeeping receipt will be clearly marked that the security is held for the City or pledged to the City. P R O P O S E D The City of Sanger, Texas 2025-2026 Official Budget Page 209 326 Item 13. All securities pledged to the City for certificates of deposit or demand deposits shall be held by an independent third-party bank domiciled in Texas. The safekeeping bank may be written within the same holding company as the bank, from which the securities are pledged. Collateralization Collateralization shall be required on all public funds of the City over the FDIC insurance coverage limit, and in order to anticipate market changes and provide a level of additional security for all funds, the collateralized level required will be 102% of the market value of the principal accrued interest. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION AND REPORTING The Investment Officers shall submit quarterly and annual reports to the City Council containing a written report of investment transactions and investment positions as of the date of report. The report will be prepared jointly by all involved in the investment activity and be signed by the Investment Officer(s). DEPOSITORIES The City will designate one banking institution through a competitive process as its central banking service provider. This institution will be used for normal banking services including disbursements, deposits, and lockbox. As a matter of ensuring liquidity and security should the funds deposited with the designated bank be temporarily unavailable, the City will maintain an emergency reserve in another qualified bank. INVESTMENT POLICY ADOPTION BY CITY COUNCIL The City’s Investment Policy shall be formally approved and adopted by resolution of the City Council and reviewed annually in accordance with the provisions of the Public Funds Investment Act of the Texas Government Code Chapter 2256.

CITY COUNCIL COMMUNICATION DATE: September 2, 2025 FROM: Clayton Gray, Chief Financial Officer AGENDA ITEM: Consideration and possible action on Ordinance 09-26-25 ratifying the property tax increase reflected in the fiscal year 2025-2026 budget. SUMMARY: The proposed tax rate of $0.689747 per $100 valuation is unchanged from the current tax rate of $0. 689747 per $100 valuation. The increase in the tax roll since last year will result in the City receiving more revenues in property tax. Section 102.007(c) of the Local Government Code requires a governing body that adopts a budget that raises more revenue from property taxes than in the previous year to ratify, by a separate vote, the property tax increase reflected in the budget. A vote under this subsection is in addition to and separate from the vote to adopt the budget or a vote to set the tax rate required by Chapter 26, Tax Code, or other law. The proposed 2025-2026 budget will raise more revenue from property taxes than in the previous year, and therefore requires a separate vote of the City Council to ratify the property tax increase reflected in the budget. The calculation of the increased revenues is based on the adjusted tax rolls, resulting in an increase in property tax revenue of $498,449. This additional revenue represents a 5.32% increase from last year's adjusted levy and includes $269,057 in revenues generated from new properties added to the tax roll.

Page 2 Rev. 21-3 ARTICLE I – PROJECT TASK ORDER 1.1 This Agreement shall apply to as many tasks as City and Consultant agree will be performed under the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each task Consultant performs for City hereunder shall be designated a Task Order. No Task Order shall be binding or enforceable unless and until it has been properly executed by both City and Consultant. The general scope for these Task Orders is outlined in Exhibit A. More specific scopes of work will be issued for pricing when a task order is needed. Task Orders shall become a supplemental agreement to this Agreement. 1.2 The Consultant shall provide its Scope of Services, to be included in each Task Order. The Scope of Services shall include all associated services required for Consultant to provide such Services, pursuant to this Agreement, and any and all Services which would normally be required by law or common due diligence in accordance with the standard of care defined in Article XII of this Agreement. Consultant will perform the Services in accordance with the approved Scope of Services and with Consultant’s response to the Request for Qualifications related to this project, which response is incorporated by reference into this Agreement as if set out here in its entirety. 1.3 Under this Agreement, Consultant will provide services on a Task Order basis for a range of services related to assisting the City with professional engineering, architecture and construction services related to execution of Capital Improvements Programs. All work will be subject to authorization from City. A detailed Scope of Services and fee estimate will be developed for each task prior to execution of work. 1.4 Consultant shall follow City Codes and Standards effective at the time of the execution of individual Task Orders. At review milestones, the Consultant and City will review the progress of the plans to ensure that City Codes and Standards are followed unless specifically and explicitly excluded from doing so in the approved Task Order. A request made by either party to deviate from City standards after the contract is executed must be in writing. 1.5 Consultant must perform tasks and submit deliverables as detailed in each approved Task Order. 1.6 Consultant must provide all labor, equipment and transportation necessary to complete all services agreed to in a timely manner throughout the term of the Agreement. Persons retained by Consultant to perform work pursuant to this Agreement shall be employees or subconsultants of Consultant. Consultant must provide City with a list of all subconsultants that includes the services performed by the subconsultant and the percentage of work performed by the subconsultant. Changes in Consultant’s team that provides services under this Agreement must be agreed to by the City in writing. 1.7 Consultant must not begin work on any Task Order authorized under this Agreement until they are briefed on the scope of the Project and are issued the fully executed Task Order to proceed. 1.8 For design services, Consultant agrees to render the professional services necessary for the advancement of the Project through Final Completion of the Construction Contract. Consultant acknowledges and accepts its responsibilities, as defined and described in the City’s General Conditions for Construction Contracts, which is attached as Exhibit E to this Agreement. 1.9 For projects that require subsurface utility investigation: 1.9.1 The Consultant agrees to prepare and submit to the City a signed and sealed report identifying all utilities within the project area at the Quality Level specified in the Task Order. It is assumed that all utilities will be identified using Quality Level A exploratory excavation unless stated otherwise. 399 Item 17. Page 3 Rev. 21-3 1.9.2 Utilities that should be identified include, but are not limited to, City-owned utilities, local franchises, electric companies, communication companies, private pipeline companies and 3rd party owners/operators. 1.10 For project with potential utility conflicts: 1.10.1 The Consultant agrees to coordinate the verification and resolution of all potential utility conflicts. 1.10.2 The Consultant agrees to prepare and submit a monthly Utility Coordination Matrix to the City. 1.11 The Consultant agrees to conduct all communication through and perform all project-related functions utilizing the City’s project management system known as e-Builder. This includes all correspondence, submittals, payment requests and processing, contract amendments and construction phase activities. ARTICLE II – COMPENSATION 2.1 The Consultant’s fee for each Task Order will be on a lump sum or time and materials (T&M) basis with a negotiated not-to-exceed amount. The fees will not exceed those identified and will be full and total compensation for all services outlined in each Task Order, and for all expenses incurred in performing these services. 2.3 Consultant shall price Task Orders in accordance with Exhibit B, Rate Schedule, subject to approval by the City. 2.4 Monthly invoices will be submitted in accordance with the Payment Request as shown in Exhibit C. Each invoice will include the Consultant’s estimate of the proportion of the contracted services completed at the time of billing. For work performed on a T&M Basis, the invoice shall include documentation that shows who worked on the Project, the number of hours that each individual worked, the applicable rates from the Rate Schedule and any reimbursable expenses associated with the work. City will make prompt monthly payments in response to Consultant’s monthly invoices in compliance with the Texas Prompt Payment Act. 2.4.1 Principals may only bill at the hourly rate of Principals when acting in that capacity. Principals acting in the capacity of staff must bill at staff rates. The Consultant shall provide documentation with each payment request that clearly indicates how that individual’s time is allocated and the justification for that allocation. 2.5 In the event of any dispute(s) between the Parties regarding the amount properly compensable for any Task Order or as final compensation or regarding any amount that may be withheld by City, Consultant shall be required to make a claim pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and follow the procedures provided herein for the resolution of such dispute. In the event Consultant does not initiate and follow the claims procedures provided in this Agreement in a timely manner and as required by the terms thereof, any such claim shall be waived. 2.6 Request of final compensation by Consultant shall constitute a waiver of claims except those previously made in writing and identified by Consultant as unsettled at the time of final Payment Request. 2.7 Any fee payable under this Agreement is subject to the availability of funds. The Consultant may be directed to suspend work pending receipt and appropriation of funds. The right to suspend work under this provision does not relieve the City of its obligation to make payments in accordance with section 2.4 above for services provided up to the date of suspension. 400 Item 17. Page 4 Rev. 21-3 ARTICLE III – QUALITY CONTROL PLAN 3.1 The Consultant agrees to perform quality assurance-quality control/constructability reviews (QCP Review).

If documents are found not to be in compliance with this Agreement, Consultant will not be compensated for having to resubmit documents. ARTICLE IV – OPINIONS OF COST 4.1 The Opinion of Probable Cost (OPC) is computed by the Consultant and includes the total cost for construction of the Project. 4.2 The OPC does not include the cost of the land, rights-of-way or other costs which are the responsibility of the City. 4.3 Since Consultant has no control over a construction contractor’s cost of labor, materials or equipment, or over the contractor’s methods of determining prices, or over competitive bidding or market conditions, Consultant’s opinions of probable Project Cost or Construction Cost provided herein are to be made on the basis of Consultant’s experience and qualifications and represent Consultant’s best judgment as a design professional familiar with the construction industry, but Consultant cannot and does not guarantee proposals, bids or the construction cost shall not vary from the OPC prepared by Consultant. ARTICLE V – INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS 5.1 Consultant must not commence work under this Agreement until all required insurance has been obtained, and such insurance has been approved by the City. Consultant must not allow any subcontractor to commence work until all similar insurance required of any subcontractor has been obtained. 5.2 Insurance Requirements are shown in EXHIBIT D. ARTICLE VI - INDEMNIFICATION Consultant shall fully indemnify and hold harmless the City of Sanger and its officials, officers, agents, and employees, excluding the engineer or architect or that person’s agent, employee or subconsultant, over which the City exercises control (“Indemnitee”) from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities or costs, including reasonable attorney fees and court costs, to the extent that the damage is caused by or results from an act of negligence, intentional tort, intellectual property infringement or failure to pay a subcontractor or supplier committed by 401 Item 17. Page 5 Rev. 21-3 Consultant or its agent, consultant under contract, or another entity over which Consultant exercises control while in the exercise of rights or performance of the duties under this agreement. This indemnification does not apply to any liability resulting from the negligent acts or omissions of the City or its employees, to the extent of such negligence. Consultant shall defend Indemnitee, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the City Attorney, from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities or costs, including reasonable attorney fees and court costs, included in the indemnification above if the claim is not based wholly or partly on the negligence of, fault of or breach of contract by Indemnitee. If a claim is based wholly or partly on the negligence of, fault of or breach of contract by Indemnitee, the Consultant shall reimburse the City’s reasonable attorney’s fees in proportion to the Consultant’s liability. Consultant must advise City in writing within 24 hours of any claim or demand against City or Consultant known to Consultant related to or arising out of Consultant’s activities under this Agreement. ARTICLE VII – TERM; RENEWALS; TIMES FOR RENDERING SERVICE 7.1 This Agreement shall be effective upon the signature of the City Manager or designee (Effective Date). 7.2 This Agreement shall be applicable to Task Orders issued hereunder from the Effective Date of the Agreement until Task Orders are complete. 7.3 The term of this Agreement shall be for a period of years beginning on the Effective Date, unless extended by authority of the City Manager or designee.

If no times are so stated, Consultant will perform services and provide deliverables within a reasonable time. ARTICLE VIII - TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT 8.1 By Consultant: 8.1.1 The City reserves the right to suspend this Agreement at the end of any phase for the convenience of the City by issuing a written and signed Notice of Suspension.

If the City terminates for cause, the City may reject any and all proposals submitted by Consultant for up to two years. 8.3 Termination Procedure 8.3.1 Upon receipt of a Notice of Termination and prior to the effective date of termination, unless the notice otherwise directs or Consultant takes action to cure a failure to perform under the cure period, Consultant shall immediately begin the phase-out and discontinuance of all services in connection with the performance of this Agreement. Within 30 calendar days after receipt of the Notice of Termination, unless Consultant has successfully cured a failure to perform, Consultant shall submit a statement showing in detail the services performed under this Agreement prior to the effective date of termination. City retains the option to grant an extension to the time period for submittal of such statement. 8.3.2 Consultant shall submit all completed and/or partially completed work under this Agreement, including but not limited to specifications, designs, plans and exhibits.

There will be no compensation for anticipated profits on services not completed. 8.3.4 Consultant acknowledges that City is a public entity and has a duty to document the expenditure of public funds. The failure of Consultant to comply with the submittal of the statement and documents, as required above, shall constitute a waiver by Consultant of any and all rights or claims to payment for services performed under this Agreement. ARTICLE IX – RIGHT OF REVIEW AND AUDIT 9.1 Consultant grants City, or its designees, the right to audit, examine or inspect, at City’s election, all of Consultant’s records relating to the performance of the Work under this Agreement, during the term of this Agreement and retention period herein. The audit, examination or inspection may be performed by a City designee, which may include its internal auditors or an outside representative engaged by City.

ARTICLE X – OWNER REMEDIES 10.1 The City and Consultant agree that in the event the City suffers actual damages, the City may elect to pursue its actual damages and any other remedy allowed by law. This includes but is not limited to: 10.1.1 Failure of the Consultant to make adequate progress and endanger timely and successful completion of the Project, which includes failure of subconsultants to meet contractual obligations; 10.1.2 Failure of the Consultant to design in compliance with the laws of the City, State and/or federal governments, such that subsequent compliance costs exceed expenditures that would have been involved had services been properly executed by the Consultant. 10.1.3 Losses are incurred because of defects, errors and omissions in the design, working drawings, specifications or other documents prepared by the Consultant to the extent that the financial losses are greater than the City would have originally paid had there not been defects, errors and omissions in the documents. 10.2 When the City incurs non-value added work costs for change orders due to design errors or omissions, the City will send the Consultant a letter that includes: (1) Summary of facts with supporting documentation; (2) Instructions for Consultant to revise design documents, if appropriate, at Consultant’s expense; (3) Calculation of non-value added work costs incurred by the City; and (4) Deadline for Consultant’s response. 10.3 The Consultant may be required to revise bid documents and re-advertise the Project at the Consultant’s sole cost if, in the City’s judgment, the Consultant generates excessive addenda, either in terms of the nature of the revision or the actual number of changes due to the Consultant’s errors or omissions. ARTICLE XI – CONSULTANT REMEDIES 11.1 If Consultant is delayed due to uncontrollable circumstances, such as strikes, riots, acts of God, national emergency, epidemics, acts of the public enemy, governmental restrictions, laws or regulations or any other causes beyond Consultant’s and City’s reasonable control, an extension of the Project schedule in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay shall be Consultant’s sole and exclusive remedy. The revised schedule should be approved in writing with a documented reason for granting the extension. 11.2 If Consultant requests a remedy for a condition not specified above, Consultant must file a Claim as provided in this Agreement. 404 Item 17. Page 8 Rev. 21-3 ARTICLE XII – CLAIMS AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION 12.1 Filing of Claims 12.1.1 Claims arising from the circumstances identified in this Agreement or other occurrences or events, shall be made by Written Notice delivered by the party making the Claim to the other party within 21 calendar days after the start of the occurrence or event giving rise to the Claim and stating the general nature of the Claim. 12.1.2 Every Claim of Consultant, whether for additional compensation, additional time or other relief, shall be signed and sworn to by a person authorized to bind the Consultant by his/her signature, verifying the truth and accuracy of the Claim. 12.1.3 The responsibility to substantiate a claim rests with the party making the Claim. 12.1.4 Within 30 calendar days of receipt of notice and supporting documentation, City will meet to discuss the request, after which an offer of settlement or a notification of no settlement offer will be sent to Consultant. If Consultant is not satisfied with the proposal presented, Consultant will have 30 calendar days in which to (i) submit additional supporting data requested by the City, (ii) modify the initial request for remedy or (iii) request Alternative Dispute Resolution. 12.1.5 Pending final resolution of a claim, except as otherwise agreed in writing, Consultant shall proceed diligently with performance of the Agreement and City shall continue to make payments in accordance with this Agreement. 12.2 Alternative Dispute Resolution 12.2.1 All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence. 12.2.2 Before invoking mediation, the Parties agree that they shall first try to resolve any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement through discussions directly between those senior management representatives within their respective organizations who have overall managerial responsibility for similar projects. This step shall be a condition precedent to the use of mediation. If the parties’ senior management representatives cannot resolve the dispute within 30 calendar days after a Party delivers a written notice of such dispute, then the Parties shall proceed with the mediation process contained herein. 12.2.3 Mediation 12.2.3.1 In the event that City or Consultant shall contend that the other has committed a material breach of this Agreement, the Party alleging such breach shall, as a condition precedent to filing any lawsuit, request mediation of the dispute. 12.2.3.2 Request for mediation shall be in writing, and shall request that the mediation commence no less than 30 or more than 90 calendar days following the date of the request, except upon agreement of both parties. 12.2.3.3 In the event City and Consultant are unable to agree to a date for the mediation or to the identity of the mediator or mediators within 30 calendar days of the request for mediation, all conditions precedent in this Article shall be deemed to have occurred. 405 Item 17. Page 9 Rev. 21-3 12.2.3.4 The parties shall share the mediator’s fee. Venue for any mediation or lawsuit arising under this Agreement shall be Hays County, Texas. Any agreement reached in mediation shall be enforceable as a settlement agreement in any court having jurisdiction thereof. No provision of this Agreement shall waive any immunity or defense. No provision of this Agreement is a consent to suit. 12.3 In case of litigation between the parties, Consultant and City agree that neither party shall be responsible for payment of attorney’s fees pursuant to any law or other provision for payment of attorneys’ fees. Both Parties expressly waive any claim to attorney’s fees should litigation result from any dispute in this Agreement. 12.4 In case of litigation between the parties, Consultant and City agree that they have knowingly waived and do hereby waive the right to trial by jury and have instead agreed, in the event of any litigation arising out of or connected to this Agreement, to proceed with a trial before the court, unless both parties subsequently agree otherwise in writing. 12.5 No Waiver of Governmental Immunity. This Agreement is to perform a governmental function solely for the public benefit. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to waive City’s governmental immunity from lawsuit, which immunity is expressly retained to the extent it is not clearly and unambiguously waived by state law. ARTICLE XIII – MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 13.1 Assignability. Neither party will assign, transfer or delegate any of its obligations or duties under this Agreement to any other person and/or party without the prior written consent of the other party, except for routine duties delegated to personnel of the Consultant staff.

If the Consultant is a partnership or joint venture, then in the event of the termination of the partnership or joint venture, this contract will inure to the individual benefit of such partner or partners as the City may designate. No part of the Consultant fee may be assigned in advance of receipt by the Consultant without written consent of the City. The City will not pay the fees of expert or technical assistance and consultants unless such employment, including the rate of compensation, has been approved in writing by the City. 13.2 Ownership of Documents.

City may explain to Consultant the City’s goals and objectives in regard to the services to be performed by Consultant, but the City shall not direct Consultant on how or in what manner these goals and objectives are to be met. 13.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including Task Orders, represents the entire and integrated Agreement between City and Consultant and supersedes all prior negotiations, representations or agreements, either oral or written. This Agreement may be amended only by written instrument signed by both the City and Consultant. 13.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries.

Box 12967 Austin, Texas 78711-2967 Re: Docket Compliance, GUD No. 9400, Atmos Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division Annual Gas Cost Reconciliation Filing Dear Mr. Evarts: Attached is Atmos Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division’s (the “Company”) Gas Cost Reconciliation filing for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2025. This report has been prepared in accordance with the order of the Railroad Commission of Texas under Gas Utilities Docket (“GUD”) No. 9400. In response to the Railroad Commission of Texas Audit No. 06-037, Auditor’s Recommendation, the Company has included an additional schedule (Schedule 10) in the filing to reflect the percentage of Lost and Unaccounted for Gas for the reconciliation period. The Company has not included the cost of odorant in gas cost as directed by the Commission; however, the Company again reiterates that it does not agree with this position. Finally, the gas cost portion of bad debts written off has been included in accordance with the system-wide application of the Rider GCR (Gas Cost Recovery) provisions. The Company will begin billing the Reconciliation Factor of $0.0739 over the nine (9) month period designated in GUD 9400 beginning October 1st.
