REGULATION OF GAS AND OIL WELL DRILLING AND

Staff recommends the Planning and Zoning Commission review the attached materials
as requested at the January 31, 1995 Workshop and instruct Staff as to any further
action required.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission at the January 31, 1995 Workshop requested
Staff to gather information concerning this issue. The following is in response to
requested items:
To the best of staff's knowledge, the City does have the mineral rights on
park land. A full title research would verify whether or not the City has the
mineral rights.
Attached is a report from the Finance Department indicating the economic
analysis of anticipated revenue the City might expect to receive from the
existence of gas wells within the city limits of Grapevine.
A map will be presented at the meeting indicating the location of the 50 foot
Lone Star Gas easement and the .5 mile band where wells may possibly be
located.
Mr. Dvorin has met with the Hunt Building Corporation to discuss sites. As of
this date, he has not contacted Staff to indicate any specific sites.
Attached are comments from both the Fire and Police Departments stating the
impacts of such a development in Grapevine.

ROGER NELSON, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
FROM: LARRY KOONCE, DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
CAMELIA BROWDER, ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
SUBJECT: GAS WELLS
DATE: FEBRUARY 2, 1995
The following is an economic analysis of what revenue the City might expect from the
existence of gas wells within the city limits of Grapevine.
There are potentially two types of revenues to be derived from gas wells. The first
is in the form of royalties and the second is property tax on the value of the well
itself.
A royalty interest is derived from ownership of the mineral rights of the property
which is included in the well. The total royalty interest is usually one-eighth of the
net profits from the well. Any City -owned property which is included in the well is
prorated a portion of the royalty interest. (For example: If the City owned one acre
of a well containing ten acres, the City would get one-tenth of the royalty interest of
one-eighth. For a well producing net revenues of $100,000, the City in this example
would expect to receive one-tenth of one-eighth of the net revenue or $1,250.) The
city would have been approached in advance to lease the mineral rights on such
property if any city property had been included in the well. With no known royalty
interest in the well, the City would receive no revenue from a royalty interest.
The other revenue to be derived from a well is the property tax on the taxable value
of the well. This value is derived by experts in the field and is usually based on the
expected market value of the well if the owner were to sell the well. According to the
Appraisal District, this figure is anywhere from one and one-half to three times the
expected yearly revenue. The information on the Reserve & Economic Report which
was supplied to the City staff would indicate the revenues to be approximately one
million dollars per year. This revenue stream would value the well at $1,500,000 to
$3,000,000. This taxable value times a tax rate of $.425 per $100 of valuation
would bring in tax revenues of $6,375 to $12,750 per year. This is equal to a
commercial development valued at $1,500,000 to $3,000,000.

The Reserve & Economic Report also lists the risk factor of 100%. The well could
prove to be worthless. Until drilled and a determination has been made that the well
is producible, no true determination can be made on the impact of the well to the
City's finances. The above mentioned figures would be the expected maximum
revenues during the early, strong production years of the well.

Subject: GAS AND OIL WELL DRILLING
The Grapevine Fire Department should have the necessary equipment
along with the Northeast Haz-Mat unit, which we are a member, to
contain Gas and Oil drilling emergencies.
Drilling Company will have to comply with Fire Code regulations
already adopted by the city. Some amendments may have to be
adopted.
Our Standard Operating Procedure will have to be updated to
include Gas and Oil Well Drilling.
I feel the Gas and Oil Well drilling will have no great impact on
the Grapevine Fire Department.
I have a copy of Midland, Texas General Offenses on Gas and Oil
Well Drilling. If you would like a copy, please call.

Subject: Gas & Oil Well Drilling -Reply
The police department has no major concerns. After inspecting
this site, our Uniformed Operations personnel said it is so
remote, that very little prolbem is anticipated, at least until
major development occurs in this quadrant of the city.
As a measure of safety, our ordinances should require at least
six-foot cyclone fencing around the entire site, pumps, storage
tanks, etc. Also, our people wanted to point out that the city
streets leading up to the site will be taking murderous pounding
from the big vehicles in and out o fhte site, and that the
streets should be upgraded to concrete, at the espense of the
drillers.
This is about all of our concerns. If you need anything else,
feel free to call. TAM
