Additional Backup Information:
Indian Hills is a mixed-use planned community located west of SH 130 and east of FM 973. The planned development for the 240-acre Indian Hills property includes approximately 1,160 apartment units and approximately 2.8 million square feet of office, light industrial, and neighborhood retail uses. The center portion of the site will be used for the extension of Decker Lake Road, the main thoroughfare. The Public Improvement District provides the financing mechanism through the apportionment, levying, and collection of assessments to support the issuance of debt for the basic infrastructure that will support the planned community (water, wastewater, and roads).
On November 3, 2011, Special Assessment Revenue Bonds, Senior Series, in the amount of $2,860,000 (the “Senior Bond”) and Subordinate Series, in the amount of $2,332,349.75 (the “Subordinate Bond”), were sold to finance the infrastructure improvements.

Service and Assessment Plan
The Service and Assessment Plan covers a period of at least five years and must be updated annually in order to determine the annual budget for improvements and define the annual assessment, as required by Chapter 372 of the Texas Local Government Code. The Service and Assessment Plan describes the property included in the PID, outlines financing requirements, defines the authorized improvements and associated costs, explains the assessment plan and assessment methodology, defines the terms of the assessments and allocation among land parcels, covers the payment and collection of assessments, and explains the assessment roll process.
The Indian Hills Public Improvement District 2024 Annual Service Plan Update, dated July 18, 2024, is attached as Exhibit A to the proposed ordinance.
