Introduction
As management of the City of University Park, we offer readers of these financial statements this
narrative overview and analysis of the City’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended September 30,
2011. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional
information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages 1-3 of this
report.
Financial Highlights
The assets of the City exceeded its liabilities at the close of the most recent fiscal year by
$161,323,562 (net assets). Of this amount, $52,814,625 (unrestricted net assets) may be used to
meet the government's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
The government's total net assets increased by $6,291,442, a 4% rise over the prior year.
At the close of the 2011 fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending
fund balances of $38,142,442, an increase of $3,432,756 compared with the prior year. Of the
total amount, all but $447,942 is classified as spendable, with $5,126,786 of the balance classified as
unassigned and therefore spendable for any valid government al purpose.
At the end of the 2011 fiscal year, spendable fund balance for the general fund was $27,863,339,
or 107 percent of total general fund expenditures (including transfers out). Of the $27,863,339,
however, $20,750,202 is classified as commiitted, namely: Emergency Reserve $2,500,000; SMU
PILOT (payment in lieu of taxes) $2,375,000; SMU Land Sale Reserve $15,875,202; while the Byrd
Estate ($1,274,954) is restricted. The remaining balance (both assigned and unassigned ) totals
$5,838,183.
The City remains free of external debt, having retired its outstanding bonds in 2002.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis serves as an introduction to the City of University Park’s basic financial
statements, which have three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial
statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary
information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.
Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements provide readers
with a broad overview of the City of University Park’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector
business.
The statement of net assets presents information on all of the City’s assets and liabilities, with the
difference between the two reported as net assets. Over time, increases or decreases in net assets may
serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the government's net assets changed
during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net assets are reported as soon as the underlying event
giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and
expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal
periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City of University Park that are
principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other
functions that are intended to recover all or most of their costs through user fees and charges (business-
type activities). The City’s governmental activities include general government, public safety, streets,
parks, and public works. Business-type activities of the City include water distribution, wastewater collection,
and solid waste collection.

The government-wide financial statements include not only the City of University Park itself (known as the
primary government), but also a legally separate higher education authority and a legally separate private,
non-profit foundation for which the City is financially accountable. Financial information for these component
units is reported separately from the financial information presented for the primary government itself.
The University Park Civic Foundation although also legally separate, functions for all practical purposes as a
department of the City of University Park, and therefore has been included as an integral part of the primary
government. The government-wide financial statements can be found immediately following the MD&A in this
report.
Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over
resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City of University Park, like
other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with
finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into three categories:
governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions
reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the
government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows
and outflows of spendable resources as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of
the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government's near-term financing require-
ments.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial
statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information
presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may
better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the
governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and
changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds
and governmental activities.
The City of University Park maintains four individual governmental funds. Information is presented
separately in the governmental funds balance sheet and in the governmental funds statement of revenues,
expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General Fund and the Capital Projects Fund, both of which
are considered to be major funds. Individual fund data for each of the two nonmajor governmental funds
(University Park Civic Foundation and Police Forfeiture) is provided in the form of combining
statements elsewhere in this report.
The City of University Park adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund. A budgetary comparison
statement has been provided for the General Fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget. The basic
governmental fund financial statements can be found in this report following the government-wide financial
statements.
Proprietary funds . The City maintains two different types of proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used
to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial
statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for its water and sewer operations and its solid waste
operation. Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs
internally among the City’s various functions. University Park uses internal service funds to account for its
fleet of vehicles and self-insurance program. Because both of these services predominantly benefit
governmental rather than business-type functions, they have been included within governmental activities in
the government-wide financial statements.

Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements,
only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the water and
sewer operations and solid waste operations, both of which are considered to be major funds of the City. The
basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found in this report following the basic governmental
fund financial statements.
Fiduciary funds . Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties
outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statement
because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own programs. The accounting
used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds. The basic fiduciary fund financial
statements can be found in this report following the Proprietary Funds Combining Statement of Cash
Flows.
Notes to the financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full
understanding of the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes can be found in this
report following the Fiduciary Funds Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Assets.
Other information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also
presents certain required supplementary information concerning the City’s progress in funding its obligation
to provide pension benefits to its employees and certain budgetary information. Required supplementary
information can be found following the notes section.
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds and
internal service funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information.
Government-wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial
position. For the City of University Park, assets exceeded liabilities by $161,323,562 as of September 30,
2011. The largest portion of the City’s net assets ($108,508,937, or 67 percent) reflects its investment in
capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, improvements, and machinery and equipment), less any debt used to
acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens;
consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. The City has retired all outstanding
debt and currently funds its capital assets on a pay-as-you-go basis.

The City has no restricted net assets. Unrestricted net assets may be used to meet the government's
ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. At the end of fiscal 2011, the City is able to report positive
balances in each category of net assets. The same situation was true last year.
Analysis of the City’s Operations – The following table provides a summary of the City’s operations for the
year ended September 30, 2011. Governmental activities increased the City’s net assets by $4,016,899 in
2011, and business-type activities by $2,274,543.
CITY OF UNIVERSITY PARK’S CHANGES IN NET ASSETS
Governmental activities. Thanks to an improving economy and building permit revenues from
large institutional projects, net assets from governmental activities increased $4,016,899 in 2011.
University Park’s landlocked, built -out status and predominant residential tax base make it reliant on
property tax revenues. Any improvement in non-tax revenues or opportunity to restrain expenditures
is welcome.
Below are notable governmental activities during the fiscal year:
As expected, building permit revenue from the George W. Bush Presidential Center boosted
General Fund revenues. Of the $2,846,125 building permit revenue within the $5,259,447
“Charges for Services” category, fully $1,695,265 results from the Presidential Center project.
Homebuilding and commercial activity picked up during the year, producing $1,150,860 in permit
revenue versus $948,128 in FY2010.

The multi-year decline in interest earnings continued, falling from $369,718 in FY2010 to
$208,533 in FY2011, a 44% drop. The target federal funds rate remained at 0-0.25% for the
entire fiscal year. The City’s annual weighted average portfolio yield mirrored the earnings
skid, falling from 0.637% to 0.465%. For the quarter ending September 30, 2011, the
average portfolio yield was a meager 0.397%.
Sales tax revenue continued to improve, rising to $3,584,805, an 11% gain over last year’s
$3,228,336. The FY2011 sales tax budget maintained the same $3,128,851 level as FY2010. Of
the FY2011 total, $313,553 results from sales tax recoveries. These recoveries represent
amounts from sales within University Park that were wrongly remitted to surrounding cities but
then recovered. Such recoveries help the City in the short run, with a catch-up payment, and in
the long run, as future monthly sales tax amounts are correctly remitted to the City.
Direct alarm revenue grew from $767,484 in FY2010 to $799,884 in FY2011. Administered by
the City’s Police Department, the program continues to gain subscribers each month. The
additional revenue helps fund the Department’s communications operations, which includes the
dispatchers who answer alarm calls from subscribers as well as 9-1-1 calls.
General governmental capital project expenditures during FY2011 totaled $2,269,321, including:
curb & gutter replacement, $694,334; street asphalt overlay program, $303,180; fire training
tower renovation, $269,761; and Germany Park South construction, $264,306.

Business-type activities. Net assets from business-type activities increased $2,274,543 in
FY2011, compared with $1,390,821 in FY2010.
FY2011 business-type activity highlights include:
Business-type capital project expenditures totaled $3,593,599. Projects included:
continuation of the “mile per year” replacement of alley pavement and underground water and
sewer lines around Baltimore, Amherst, and Stanford streets ($1,349,324); renovation of the
Fondren water tower ($747,273); mile per year replacement around Auburndale and Key
streets ($611,612); and completion of the emergency water interconnect with the City of
Dallas ($562,656).
Record-breaking summer heat in 2011 produced a geyser-like effect on water sales.
Daytime high temperatures in Dallas exceeded 100 degrees 70 times, and 40 days in a row
at one point. The City sold 25% more water than in FY2010. Additionally, the FY2011
budget included increases in retail water rates to University Park residents (up 8.2%) and
wholesale rates from the City’s water provider (the Dallas County Park Cities Municipal Utility
District, up 16%), so the high consumption had an especially dramatic effect. Total City
water sales reached $9,469,689, a full 43% above last year’s $6,605,544. Water purchases
jumped 36%, rising to $4,655,720 from FY2010’s $3,434,709.
Depreciation expense rose 3.2% to $1,460,020 from $1,414,245 as new assets became
subject to depreciation.

As the following charts demonstrate, charges for services are the dominant revenue source for
business-type activities. This is consistent with the nature of proprietary funds, which are designed
to recover their costs through user fees rather than general revenues. Water and Sewer Fund
revenues are driven by water consumption, which in turn is driven by weather and consumer habits.
Sanitation revenues, by contrast, only increase noticeably when the City raises rates.

Financial Analysis of the Government’s Funds
As noted earlier, the City of University Park uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with
finance-related legal requirements. This section will discuss major developments within the City’s
governmental funds and proprietary funds.
Governmental funds . The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term
inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the
City’s financing requirements. FY2011 is the first year in which the City’s financial statements are presented in
conformity with GASB Statement No. 54, “Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions.”
This statement changes the presentation of the fund balance section of governmental funds. Instead of
classifying amounts as reserved, unreserved and designated, or undesignated, the Statement uses the
following categories:
Nonspendable fund balance—amounts that are not in a spendable form (such as inventory) or
are required to be maintained intact (such as the corpus of an endowment fund).
Restricted fund balance—amounts constrained to specific purposes by their providers (such as
grantors, bondholders, and higher levels of government), through constitutional provisions, or by
enabling legislation.
Committed fund balance—amounts constrained to specific purposes by a government itself,
using its highest level of decision-making authority; to be reported as committed, amounts cannot
be used for any other purpose unless the government takes the same highest-level action to
remove or change the constraint.
Assigned fund balance—amounts a government intends to use for a specific purpose; intent can
be expressed by the governing body or by an official or body to which the governing body
delegates the authority.
Unassigned fund balance—amounts that are available for any purpose; these amounts are
reported only in the General Fund.
In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources
available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
As of the end of FY2011, the City’s governmental funds – General Fund, Capital Projects Fund, Police Forfeiture
Fund, and University Park Civic Foundation -- reported combined ending fund balances of $38,142,442, an increase
of $3,432,756 compared to the prior year. Of the total, only $447,942, which represents fuel and supplies
inventories, is not spendable.
Of the spendable amounts, the $1,274,954 Byrd Estate is the result of proceeds from an estate left to the City in
1989 and is classified as “Restricted.” The $20,750,202 reported as “Committed” is governed by resolutions the
City Council approved in 2010. Committed funds cannot be expended without affirmative City Council action.
The $10,542,558 in “Assigned” funds represents encumbrances (open purchase orders) and money intended for
capital projects. Finally, the “Unassigned” balance of $5,126,786 meets and exceeds the City’s stated fund
balance policy minimum, which is equal to 30 days of budgeted operating expenditures ($2,204,842).

Fund balance in the Capital Projects Fund increased $364,391 during fiscal 2011 to a total of $9,795,278. The
increase resulted from a decline in project expenditures -- $2,269,321, compared with $4,611,004 in FY2010 and
$7,875,116 in FY2009.
Fund balance for the University Park Civic Foundation, reported as a nonmajor special revenue fund, decreased
$3,992. During the year the Foundation received donations totaling $33,596; expenditure activities included the
second year of the City employee children’s scholarship program ($23,250) and parks renovations ($13,688). The
scholarship program made awards ranging from $375 to $1,000 per semester to 16 students attending college in
Texas (15) and Illinois (1).
Proprietary funds. The City’s proprietary fund statements provide the same type of information found in the
government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. Total net assets of the Water and Sewer Fund at
the end of the year amounted to $48,531,365, and those for the Sanitation Fund totaled $1,256,723. The
total gain for the Water and Sewer Fund was $1,874,061 and $267,267 for the Sanitation Fund.
General Fund Budgetary Highlights. Two budget amendments during the fiscal year increased the
expenditure budget by $791,964 and the revenue budget by $94,293. As is the practice, the purpose of
the first amendment was to bring forward open encumbrances (purchase orders) from FY2010. By
adding their amount to the adopted FY2011 budget, purchases may be completed without exceeding the
approved budget.
The second budget amendment, approved in September 2011, primarily boosted funding for HVAC and
facilities improvements at the Peek Center and City Hall. The revenue budget increases included
$86,365 from a State of Texas energy conservation grant, which covered much of the HVAC work just
described.
The fiscal year ended with the General Fund unassigned fund balance above the City’s established
minimum level: $5,126,786 versus $2,705,811. In early FY2012, the City Council approved $711,398 in
encumbrances carried forward from FY2011.
Budget variances in the General Fund.
Revenue totals in two General Fund categories varied significantly from the final budget:
Permits and licenses revenue finished the year 94% ahead of its $1,530,800 budget, totaling
$2,973,785. Of these amounts, building permit fees comprised $1,400,000 budget and $2,846,125
actual revenue. The cause of the variance is directly attributable to the $1,695,265 in permit fees from
construction of the George W. Bush Presidential Center. The Center is located in University Park on
land purchased by Southern Methodist University. Despite the anticipation of a large permit fee from
the Bush Presidential Center, City management intentionally budgeted permit revenue at the same
level as FY2010. This prevented a nonrecurring spike in the revenue budget for FY2011, which would
then need to be lowered or offset in FY2012. Aside from the Center, single-family homebuilding and
commercial building activity increased, resulting in $1,150,000 of permit revenue versus $948,128 in
FY2010.
“Other” revenue finished the year 60% ahead of its $1,425,735 budget, totaling $2,280,649. The
Other revenue category is highly variable from year to year. Two SMU-related items boosted the
category’s total. First, the final installment of SMU’s three-year $2,375,000 PILOT payment added
$375,000. This amount was added to the existing $2,000,000 in the General Fund’s “Committed to
SMU PILOT” component. Second, SMU purchased street rights-of -way from the City for $1,282,884.
The space was used to accommodate construction of on-campus street realignment related to
construction of the University’s new sophomore commons development and other projects.

Capital assets. The City’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business type activities as
of September 30, 2011 , amounts to $108,508,937 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in
capital assets includes land, buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment, infrastructure, and
construction in progress.
Capital assets increased by $3,007,421, led by business-type improvements (the completion of three mile-
per -year utility replacement projects). Governmental improvements included completion of the Curtis Park
swimming pool renovation.

Additional information on the City’s capital assets can be found on pages 40-42 in the notes section of
this report.
Long-term debt. At the end of fiscal year 2011, the City of University Park had no bonded debt outstanding.
In June 2002 the City made its final debt service payment on the Series 1993 General Obligation
Refunding Bonds. The City has no plans to issue new debt.
Economic Factors and Next Year's Budgets and Rates
For FY2012, the following economic factors are noteworthy:
For the second year in a row, the appraised value of the City’s taxable base decreased,
although by less (2.44%) than the previous year (4.46%). The average appraised value of a
single-family home in University Park fell 2.66%, from $1,120,199 to $1,093,015 before
exemptions. The FY2012 budget maintained the same property tax rate, $0.27845 per $100,
as FY2011, which resulted in a $387,311 budgeted revenue decrease because of the tax base
shrinkage. Early indications suggest that property values will be level in University Park in
2012.
Commercial and residential building activity is expected to rise in FY2012. The building permit
fee revenue budget for the year again remains at $1,400,000. The City anticipates large building
permit fees from projects at SMU, such as construction of the new sophomore commons and
renovation of Moody Coliseum.
Retail water rates for FY2012 were unchanged, as the projected increase from the City’s water
provider, the Dallas County Park Cities Municipal Utility District, was deferred for a year. A
sizeable increase is expected for FY2013.
Construction of the George W. Bush Presidential Center, begun in November 2010, continued
throughout FY2011 and into FY2012. Opening of the 225,000 square foot Center, featuring
archives, a museum and a policy institute, is scheduled for 2013.

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net assets are different because:
Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and, therefore, are not
reported in the funds.57,119,522
Certain receivables will be collected this year, but are not available to pay for the current
period's expenditures and are, therefore, deferred in the funds.310,240
All equity remaining in the Texas Higher Education Authority will eventually become property of
the government, however, since that amount is not yet available, it is deferred in the funds.68,098
This amount is the net pension asset (TMRS) recorded at the government wide level, not
recorded in the funds.423,382
This amount is the net other post-employment benefits obligation recorded at the government

This amount is the net pension obligation (FRRF) recorded at the government wide level, not
recorded in the funds.(803,436)
The long term portion of compensated absences is not due and payable in the current period
and therefore is not reported in the funds. (1,925,217)

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF UNIVERSITY PARK,
TEXAS, DENYING ATMOS ENERGY CORP., MID-TEX
DIVISION’S (“ATMOS MID-TEX”) REQUESTED RATE
CHANGE; REQUIRING THE COMPANY TO REIMBURSE
THE CITY’S REASONABLE RATEMAKING EXPENSES;
FINDING THAT THE MEETING AT WHICH THIS
RESOLUTION IS PASSED IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AS
REQUIRED BY LAW; REQUIRING NOTICE OF THIS
RESOLUTION TO THE COMPANY AND ACSC’S LEGAL
COUNSEL
WHEREAS, the City of University Park, Texas (“City”) is a gas utility customer of
Atmos Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division (“Atmos Mid-Tex” or “Company”), and is a regulatory
authority under the Gas Utility Regulatory Act (“GURA”) and under Chapter 104, §104.001 et
seq. of GURA, has exclusive original jurisdiction over Atmos Mid-Tex’s rates, operations, and
services within the City; and
WHEREAS, the City is a member of the Atmos Cities Steering Committee (“ACSC”), a
coalition of over 150 similarly situated cities served by the Company that have joined together to
facilitate the review and response to natural gas issues affecting rates charged in the Atmos Mid-
Tex Division; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the agreement settling the Company’s 2007
Statement of Intent to increase rates, ACSC and the Company worked collectively to develop a
Rate Review Mechanism (“RRM”) tariff that allows for an expedited rate review process
controlled in a three-year experiment by ACSC as a substitute to the current GRIP process
instituted by the Legislature; and
WHEREAS, ACSC and the Company agreed to extend the RRM process in reaching a
settlement in 2010 on the third RRM filing; and
WHEREAS, in 2011, ACSC and the Company engaged in good faith negotiations
regarding the continuation of the RRM process, but were unable to come to ultimate agreement;
and
WHEREAS, on or about January 31, 2012, the Company filed a Statement of Intent with
the cities retaining original jurisdiction within its Mid-Tex service division to increase rates by
approximately $49 million; and
WHEREAS, Atmos Mid-Tex proposed March 6, 2012, as the effective date for its
requested increase in rates; and
Page 94 of 145
2070343.1 2
WHEREAS, the City suspended the effective date of Atmos Mid-Tex’s proposed rate
increase for the maximum period allowed by law and thus extended the City’s jurisdiction until
June 4, 2012; and
WHEREAS, on April 25, 2012, the Company extended the effective date for its proposed
rates by one week, which similarly extended the City’s jurisdiction until June 11, 2012; and
WHEREAS, the ACSC Executive Committee hired and directed legal counsel and
consultants to prepare a common response to the Company’s requested rate increase and to
negotiate with the Company and direct any necessary litigation; and
WHEREAS, ACSC’s consultants conducted a review of the Company’s requested rate
increase and found justification that the Company’s rates should be decreased; and
WHEREAS, ACSC and the Company have engaged in settlement discussions but will be
unable according to Company representations to reach settlement in sufficient time for cities to
act before June 11, 2012; and
WHEREAS, failure by ACSC members to take action before June 11, 2012 would allow
the Company the right to impose its full request on residents of said ACSC members; and
WHEREAS, the ACSC Settlement Committee recommends denial of the Company’s
proposed rate increase in order to continue settlement discussions pending the Company’s appeal
of cities’ denials to the Railroad Commission of Texas; and
WHEREAS, the GURA § 103.022 provides that costs incurred by cities in ratemaking
activities are to be reimbursed by the regulated utility.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
UNIVERSITY PARK, TEXAS:
1. That the rates proposed by Atmos Mid-Tex to be recovered through its gas rates
charged to customers located within the City limits, are hereby found to be unreasonable and
shall be denied.
2. That the Company shall continue to charge its existing rates to customers within
the City and that said existing rates are reasonable.
3. That the City’s reasonable rate case expenses shall be reimbursed by the
Company.
4. That it is hereby officially found and determined that the meeting at which this
Resolution is passed is open to the public as required by law and the public notice of the time,

DATE: April 30, 2012
RE: Denial Resolution For Atmos Mid-Tex’s Requested Rate Increase
Background on Atmos Mid-Tex Rate Case
On January 31, 2012, Atmos Energy Corporation, Mid-Tex Division (“Atmos Mid-Tex”
or “Company”) filed with Atmos Cities Steering Committee (“ACSC”) city members that
exercise original jurisdiction a request for a rate increase in excess of $49 million. ACSC
members passed resolutions suspending the effective date of the proposed increase to allow
ACSC attorneys and consultants to study the request. A summary of the consultants’ findings is
attached as Exhibit A. The ACSC Settlement Committee has met with Company officials to
negotiate a settlement. While ACSC has given the Company a settlement offer, Atmos Mid-Tex
does not want to provide a written offer before the expiration of city jurisdiction on June 11,
2012.
Timing of City Action
ACSC members with original jurisdiction suspended the proposed effective date of
March 6, 2012, extending city jurisdiction until June 4, 2012. On April 25, 2012, the Company
extended its effective date by a week, which similarly extended the June 4, 2012 deadline to June
11, 2012. It does not appear that settlement could be achieved within a time frame that would
allow the City to take action prior to June 11, 2012. Thus, ACSC members are encouraged to
pass a denial resolution. Atmos Mid-Tex has promised to support the action which does not
preclude a subsequent settlement. If settlement is achieved, ACSC will return to member cities
with a request for approval of the settlement.

Page 2
2056489.1
Recommendation and Explanation of Denial Resolution
The ACSC Settlement Committee recommends the ACSC cities pass resolutions denying
Atmos Mid-Tex’s proposed rate increase. The denial resolution will prevent the Company’s
proposed rate increase from automatically taking effect on June 11, 2012, and allow more time to
engage in settlement discussions. Atmos will appeal your denial to the Railroad Commission
which will trigger a 185-day time frame for action by the Commission. Settlement will
hopefully occur before a hearing takes place. Please contact Geoffrey Gay if you have any
questions or concerns.

MODEL STAFF REPORT SUPPORTING RESOLUTION DENYING ATMOS
MID-TEX’S PROPOSED RATE INCREASE
The City, along with over 150 other cities served by Atmos Energy Corp., Mid-Tex
Division (“Atmos Mid-Tex” or “Company”), is a member of the Atmos Cities Steering
Committee (“ACSC” or “Steering Committee”). On or about January 31, 2012, Atmos Mid-Tex
filed with the City a Statement of Intent to increase rates within the City.
Background
In 2003, TXU Gas filed a statewide rate case which became known at the Railroad
Commission of Texas (“RRC”) as Gas Utilities Docket (“GUD”) No. 9400. That same year the
Texas Legislature passed legislation referred to as the Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program
(“GRIP”) which authorized annual piecemeal rate reviews that Texas courts have concluded
significantly restrict city jurisdiction, participation, and input. Shortly after GUD No. 9400 was
decided in 2004, Atmos Energy purchased TXU Gas and created what is known as Atmos
Energy Corp., Mid-Tex Division. The City is within the Atmos Mid-Tex Division.
Atmos Mid-Tex filed four GRIP cases before filing a traditional rate case in September,
2007. As part of ACSC’s Settlement Agreement with Atmos of the 2007 rate case, ACSC and
Atmos created a substitute process for annual piecemeal GRIP cases. That substitute process
was called a Rate Review Mechanism (“RRM”) and was intended as an expedited but
comprehensive rate review that included a number of fixed values and constraints. The RRM
was intended as a three-year experiment. Last year, it was extended for a fourth year with some
slight modifications to the original formulas. ACSC negotiated with Atmos in the final quarter
of last year to further extend the RRM process, but no agreement was reached. Atmos has
expressed a desire to reach a settlement of the January 31, 2012 filing that includes a revised
RRM process.
Discussion and Purpose
Atmos Mid-Tex filed a Statement of Intent on January 31, 2012, seeking to increase
system-wide base rates (which exclude the cost of gas) by approximately $49 million or 11.94%.
However, the Company is requesting an increase of 13.6%, excluding gas costs, for its
residential customers. Additionally, the application would change the way that rates are
collected, by increasing the residential fixed-monthly (or customer) charge from $7.50 to $18.00
and decreasing the consumption charge from $0.25 per 100 cubic feet (“ccf”) to $0.07 per ccf.
ACSC engaged attorneys and consultants to review Atmos Mid-Tex’s proposed rate
increase. Additionally, the ACSC cities passed suspension resolutions earlier this year,
extending the effective date of Atmos Mid-Tex’s proposed rate increase to June 4, 2012, in order
to permit the cities time to review Atmos Mid-Tex’s Statement of Intent. During their review,
ACSC’s consultants found justification that Mid-Tex’s rates should be decreased. On April 25,
2012, the Company extended the effective date of its proposed rate change, which similarly
extended cities’ jurisdictional deadline to June 11, 2012.
Page 99 of 145
2056490.1
ACSC and the Company have engaged in some settlement discussions but have not yet
reached agreement. ACSC is hoping to achieve settlement with the Company in order to
perpetuate the RRM process. The ACSC Settlement Committee therefore recommends denial of
the Company’s proposed rate increase rather than a rate decrease to facilitate further settlement
discussions. The resolution prevents the Company’s proposed rates from automatically going
into effect on June 11. The Company has expressed a desire for settlement while an appeal from
the cities’ denial of the rate increase is pending at the RRC. Should a settlement be reached, the
City may be required to pass an ordinance setting new rates pursuant to the settlement.
The purpose of the resolution is to deny Atmos Mid-Tex’s proposed rate increase
pending further settlement discussions and to prevent Atmos’ proposed rate increase from
automatically taking effect on June 11, 2012.
Explanation of “Be It Resolved Paragraphs”
Section 1. The paragraph denies the Company’s proposed rate increase.
Section 2. This provision provides that the Company shall continue to charge its
existing rates to its customers within the City.
Section 3. By law, the Company must reimburse the cities for their reasonable rate
case expenses. Legal counsel and consultants approved by ACSC will present their invoices to
the City of Arlington which will then seek reimbursement from Atmos Mid-Tex. The City will
not incur liability for payment of rate case expenses by adopting a denial resolution.
Section 4. This section merely recites that the resolution was passed at a meeting that
was open to the public and that the consideration of the resolution was properly noticed.
Section 5. This section provides that both Atmos Mid-Tex’s designated
representative and counsel for ACSC will be notified of the City’s action by sending a copy of
the approved and signed resolution to certain designated individuals.
Recommendation
The City Staff recommends adoption of the resolution denying Atmos Mid-Tex’s
proposed rate increase.

Exhibit A
ACSC Consultants’ Recommended Adjustments to Atmos Mid-Tex’s 2012 Statement of Intent
to Increase Rates1
Following a review of the Company’s 2012 Statement of Intent, ACSC consultants found
justification for an approximately $77 million decrease to the Company’s requested revenue,
resulting in a $23 million decrease to the current rates charged by Atmos Mid-Tex. ACSC
consultants’ recommendation for a rate decrease is based upon the following major components:2
• Lowering the Company’s return on equity from 10.9% to 9.5%, resulting in a revenue
requirement decrease of over $30 million
• Removing the Company’s improper post-test year adjustment to add plant from January
to March 2012, resulting in a revenue requirement decrease of approximately $5 million
• Removing the Company’s proposal for an energy efficiency plan to be funded only by
ratepayers, resulting in a revenue requirement decrease of over $1 million
• Various adjustments to accumulated deferred income tax, resulting in a revenue
requirement decrease of approximately $10 million
• Recognizing new depreciation rates as filed by the Company (without adjustment by
ACSC consultants), resulting in a revenue requirement decrease of approximately $15
million
• Various adjustments to the Company’s requested level of operating and maintenance
(O&M) expense, resulting in a revenue requirement decrease of over $8 million
• Reducing rate base to account for ratepayer supplied funds relating to other post-
employment benefits (FASB 106), resulting in a revenue requirement decrease of over
$8 million
• Cap residential customer charge at $9.00, instead of Atmos’ requested $18.00.
1 All figures are adjustments resulting in a revenue requirement impact to Atmos’ filed case system-wide. Factoring
out Dallas, the ACSC cities would see slight decreases in the numbers listed above.
2 Please note that the adjustments listed are on a stand-alone basis, and may have a different impact when combined
with the other adjustments.

funding available from current revenue for the timely payment of the Project costs.
c. inspection of the construction and installation work of the Project.
5. The CITY agrees that in its contract for the Project, should it in fact award one,

Project. The CITY shall be responsible for final acceptance of construction and installation of
the Project.
6. After completion of the Project, the CITY and the TOWN will respectively read,
and bill utility customers, the water meters in the alley for residential consumption. The Finance

water it sells, the Finance Departments will determine a “true-up” amount to compensate the
appropriate party.

TOWN of the CITY’s proposed maintenance work and/or services to the UP Water Line and/or
the Shared Sanitary Sewer Main prior to commencing work.
11. The CITY and the TOWN each represent and warrant that this Agreement is to
provide governmental services that each Party hereto is authorized to perform individually. The
CITY and the TOWN also represent and warrant that one will not charge and/or assess the other
for the other’s use and enjoyment of the Improvements.
12. This Agreement shall be in full force and effect from the date first written above

terminated by either Party by notice in writing not less than six months prior to the next
succeeding anniversary date of this Agreement.
13. This Agreement has been approved by the City Council of the CITY and the
City’s Mayor has been authorized to execute the same on behalf of the CITY. This Agreement
has been approved by the Town Council of the TOWN and the Town’s Mayor has been
authorized to execute it on behalf of the TOWN. This Agreement will not be binding on the

14. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to affect, alter, or modify the
sovereign immunity of either Party under the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code
§§101.001 et seq, or other law. Notwithstanding the above, it is expressly understood and agreed
that this Agreement is binding and enforceable against the Parties.
15. Any third party contract(s) made and entered into by either Party to carry out any

neither the CITY nor the TOWN waives, nor shall be deemed to have waived, any immunity or
defense that would otherwise be available to it against claims arising in the exercise of
governmental powers and functions.
17. The CITY and the TOWN shall each provide public liability insurance or be self-
insured as permitted by law for use and enjoyment of the Improvements. Such policies shall be
in the amount of the maximum liability to which each is subject under the Texas Tort Claims Act
or other applicable law. Notwithstanding this or any other provision of this Agreement, no rights
are created hereby in any third party.
18. The Parties agree that this Agreement is in addition to other Interlocal
Agreements between the Parties hereto. Any prior written or oral agreement relative to and/or
corresponding to this Agreement is superseded by this Agreement and shall be of no further
force or effect.
19. This Agreement may not be terminated without at least six months’ prior written
notice from the terminating Party to the other Party hereto. This Agreement may not be
amended or altered in any manner except by a written instrument stating such amendment or
alteration, authorized and executed by the Parties in the manner provided by law.
20. In case any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall, for any reason,
be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or
unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions hereof and this Agreement shall be
construed as if such provision had never been contained herein.
