NOTICE PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE SEC. 2254.1036 WHEREAS, the Blinn College District (“District”), will consider entering into a contingent fee contract with the law firm of Perdue, Brandon, Fielder, Collins & Mott, L.L.P. (“Firm”) and hereby posts this notice pursuant to Sec. 2254.106 of the Government Code. WHEREAS, this notice shall be posted before or at the time of giving the written notice required by Government Code Sec. 551.041 for a meeting described by Sec. 2254.1036(2) of the Government Code and shall announce the following: A. The District is pursuing a contract with the Firm for the collection of delinquent ad valorem taxes owed to the District and through this contract the District seeks to increase recovery of its delinquent debts in as expeditious a manner as possible. GOVT. CODE § 2254.1036(1)(A). B. The District believes the Firm has the competency, qualifications, and experience necessary to fulfill this contract. GOVT. CODE § 2254.1036(1)(B). The Firm has collected delinquent government receivables for over 50 years, including the collection of delinquent ad valorem taxes. The Firm currently has 14 primary offices and multiple satellite offices throughout Texas, Oklahoma and Florida. It employs more than 450 individuals, including more than 55attorneys. It uses a multi-office, fully integrated team approach allowing the District access to all its offices and resources. Its collection team consists of long-term Firm employees, including attorneys, call center associates, paralegals, law clerks, legal secretaries, collection support personnel and information technology experts. The Firm utilizes proprietary collection software that can be tailored to meet any special need the District may have. This proprietary software also automates many aspects of the collection process, such as: account/debtor research, mailings and phone calls, return mail and address updates, payment notification and processing and workflow. C. The nature of any relationship between the District and the Firm is as follows. GOVT. CODE§2254.1036(1)(C). The Firm has represented the District since 2023 in the collection of delinquent ad valorem taxes. D. The District is unable to perform collect its delinquent ad valorem taxes. GOVT. CODE §2254.1036(1)(D). The District currently does not have adequate support staff, computer software/programming, or experience to internally conduct these collection services and acquiring these will result in substantial expense to the District. E. These collection services cannot be provided for an hourly fee. GOVT. CODE §2254.1036(1)(E). The Tax Code allows the assessment of a percentage-based fee to recover the costs of collecting delinquent ad valorem taxes. This percentage-based fee is assessed only against the debtor and not the District or taxpayers of the District. The collection of delinquent ad valorem taxes is a high-volume practice, requiring a significant amount of research, mailing, and handling of outbound/inbound calls. An hourly fee for such work will likely exceed amount of delinquent ad valorem taxes due. Moreover, the District will bear the cost of these hourly fees and not the debtor, because the Tax Code does not expressly authorize the District to pay for collection services based on an hourly fee. F. The District believes this contingent fee contract is in its best interest. GOVT. CODE §2254.1036(1)(F). Under the contingent fee contract, the Firm will be paid the amount of the percentage-based collection fee, regardless the number of hours the Firm spends researching, contacting and mailing to collect the delinquent debt. Additionally, the percentage-based collection penalty is a pass-through expense to the debtor and not an expense to the District or taxpayers in the District. |

The City of Texarkana, Arkansas, is exploring a proposal to sell surplus water from Millwood Lake to buyers in Texas through a privately funded pipeline project. City officials estimate the proposed sale of up to 110 million gallons per day could generate $16 million to $20 million in annual revenue and more than $1 billion over a 40-year contract. Heartland Water Partners would fund the necessary intake improvements and pipeline construction. A study commissioned by Heartland concluded that the additional withdrawals would have no significant adverse effects on Millwood Lake or downstream users, although modeled withdrawals during the 2011 drought would have lowered lake levels by approximately three feet. The proposal remains in the preliminary stages and requires Arkansas state approval, with a potential interstate compact also possible. No definitive water-sale agreement or specific Texas purchasers have been publicly identified, and any final agreement would require separate approval by the Texarkana Board of Directors. (D) Corpus Christi Could Owe Texas $235M for Failed Desalination Plant. The City of Corpus Christi is facing uncertainty over approximately $235 million in state funding received for a proposed seawater desalination plant that has been rejected twice by the City Council due to cost concerns. Returning the funds could require repayment of approximately $50 million already spent, plus $72 million in interest, and could negatively affect the city’s credit rating and future state financing opportunities. The proposed Inner Harbor desalination plant was intended to provide an additional water supply for the region, which has experienced growing concerns over water shortages. City officials have requested an extension of the state funding agreement, and some leaders hope to revive the project following the November 2026 city elections, while others have suggested redirecting the funding toward alternative water supply projects, such as groundwater development. However, the Texas Water Development Board previously denied a request to use the funding for other purposes, leaving the project’s future and the disposition of the state funds uncertain. (E)The Great Raft, BBC Wildlife. The Great Raft was an extensive accumulation of fallen trees and woody debris that blocked approximately 250 kilometers of the Red River for nearly 900 years, creating a natural dam that altered water levels, sediment deposits, and the surrounding landscape. While the raft provided important wetland habitats and supported the livelihoods of the Caddo people, it obstructed navigation and trade for European explorers and settlers. Beginning in the 1830s, Captain Henry Miller Shreve led efforts to remove the obstruction, and the remaining raft was finally cleared in the 1870s using dynamite under Lieutenant Eugene Woodruff. Its removal improved river navigation but caused significant environmental and socioeconomic consequences, including the loss of wetlands, shrinking of the Great Raft Lakes, and decline of communities such as Jefferson, Texas, that had developed around the affected waterways. The increased flow of water into the Mississippi River system also contributed to downstream water-management concerns, ultimately reinforcing the need for large-scale flood-control infrastructure. The article highlights how removing natural woody debris from river systems can have lasting ecological and economic consequences. (F)Texas Metropolitan Economic Forecast: According to Dr. M. Ray Perryman’s September 2026 economic forecast, Texas metropolitan areas are projected to experience continued economic and employment growth from 2025 through 2030 despite national and global economic uncertainties. The state’s seven largest urban centers are expected to account for approximately 78% of Texas’ employment gains, while smaller metropolitan areas are projected to contribute an additional 14.3%. The Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, and San Antonio metropolitan areas are expected to maintain steady employment growth, while smaller markets, including Sherman-Denison, Tyler, and Midland, are also projected to expand. Although economic growth is expected to vary by region and may be weighted toward the latter part of the forecast period, the outlook anticipates continued statewide economic expansion through 2030. This item will include discussion and possible action regarding the above-listed reports and updates. 11.Consideration, Discussion, and Possible Action on New Business to be Placed on a Future Meeting Agenda. This agenda item will include discussion and possible action on future agenda items. Action Item: Possible Motion to place items discussed on the agenda of a future meeting. 12.Announcements from the Chairman/Board and/or Staff. 13.Next Regular Meeting Sulphur River Basin Authority Regular Meeting, January 19, 2027, at 1:00 p.m. at the Mount Pleasant Civic Center, 1800 North Jefferson Street, Mount Pleasant, Texas. 14.Adjournment. ************************************************************************************************************************************* Sulphur River Basin Authority is committed to compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
