AGENDA SUBJECT: Briefing/Discussion regarding City Hall Debt
SUMMARY:
As staff have been working with our architects to determine preliminary design
and site locations for a future City Hall, we have also been consulting with our
financial advisors to evaluate potential debt scenarios as it relates to a new City
Hall.
With the recent action to authorize the purchase of the land for the new City
Hall, staff have invited our financial advisors to discuss the impact of
financing the $600,000 land purchase under a short term note to be repaid
from future bond proceeds issued to construct the City Hall.

AGENDA SUBJECT: Briefing regarding Police Department Grant Applications
SUMMARY: Each Fiscal Year, we scan the various grant funding mechanisms
to determine if we can compete for grants that are being offered through the
NCTCOG, via the Governor’s office, originating from the Federal Justice
Assistance program. As you may recall, we applied for two grants last FY, one
adding a School Resource Officer to the staff and one that would fund the salary
and benefits for an officer to be assigned as a Child Abuse/Family Violence
Detective. That Detective would replace the position we lost when we added
patrol supervisors in November of 2014. We won the SRO grant, but not the
additional Detective funding.
For FY 2017 we identified two Grants that I recommend that we compete for.
1.Radio Upgrade: You may recall that we are being mandated by the
Federal Government to upgrade from P25 Phase I radios to P25 Phase II
radios. The cost to upgrade our current number of radios is estimated to
be about $122k and without any grant funding, that amount would greatly
impact the General Fund. We intend to apply for a grant that will give us
approx $79k to assist us with this mandate. This grant would fund 13
portable radios with 1 extra battery each, 4 mobile radios, and 1 6-bank
radio charger. If we get this grant, the General Fund will be impacted in
the amount of approx $43k to fund the rest of the radio requirements.
2.Child Abuse/Family Violence Investigator: This JAG grant would, for 3-
years, fund the salary and benefits of a Police Officer to work criminal
cases involving those where the victims were children. Further, the
Detective would specialize in the investigation of those offenses classified
as family violence. If we were awarded this grant, the City will be
responsible for funding the uniforms and equipment necessary for a new
police officer position (approx $9,500) out of the General Fund and for the
Meeting Date: February 23, 2016
Staff Contact: Chief Jenks
Exhibits:
next two years, the cost would be minimal for items such as replacement
uniforms, vehicle fuel, training tuition, etc.
At the end of the three-year period, the budget submitted by the Police
Department would include the full funding for this full-time, sworn, position.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
These Grants would help the City provide advanced law enforcement services to
our citizens without bearing the full costs. Further, it allows us to recover state
and federal tax dollars paid by our citizens and provide them with services that
directly benefit them. If these projects are something the Council would like to
see come to fruition, the staff will pursue these funding opportunities
enthusiastically.

Consider/Discuss/Action regarding adoption of an Ordinance establishing
regulations for the construction and/or drilling of water wells.
SUMM ARY:
It is prudent to take steps through regulation, permitting, and inspection, to
ensure that private wells are properly constructed and that there is a complete
physical separation between a private non-potable water source and the City’s
potable water system when private wells are constructed, maintained, or
reconstructed. The proposed regulations would reduce or eliminate potential
contamination of the public water system due to improper construction or
incorrect location of a private well. The inspections and permitting required would
ensure compliance with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation
(TDLR), Texas Well Drillers Act regulations, the City’s adopted electrical and
plumbing codes, as well as proper setbacks from property lines, buildings, or
potential contaminating sources.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the proposed ordinance.

City Secretary-1 - TCAP Contract - Staff Report
Item No. 9
City Secretary’s use only
City Council Agenda
Staff Report
______________________________
AGENDA SUBJECT: Consider/Discuss/Take Action regarding a Resolution
authorizing approval of a contact with Texas Coalition for Affordable Power
(TCAP)
SUMM ARY:
The City of Anna currently purchases power not supplied by the Grayson Collin
Co-op through a cooperative agreement with the Texas Coalition for Affordable
Power (TCAP). TCAP is a non-profit, political subdivision corporation, owned
and controlled by its 171 political subdivision members, the vast majority of
whom are cities. TCAP is governed by a 15 member board of directors, all of
whom must be city employees or elected city officials. As a political subdivision
corporation, TCAP is able to bypass retail electric providers and purchase
electricity on the wholesale market and directly negotiate rates. Our current
TCAP electricity contract expires at the end of 2017.
Beginning Feb. 25 TCAP will establish the size of the load and direct their
supplier to look for a rate of 4.1 cents per kWh and lock in pricing for a five-year
term. The suppliers and TCAP will monitor the energy market and have until
June 30, 2016 to lock in the rate. Once the rate is locked in, the City has 24
hours to execute the contract. According to TCAP, the actual price is likely to be
less than the benchmark price. The prices will become effective January 1, 2018.
Given that these prices are to be locked in 2016 and will not expire until
December 31, 2022, they are reflective of the lowest prices for electricity
experienced since the retail market was deregulated January 1, 2002. Generally
speaking, there ought to be an expectation that the price of energy will climb
marginally for each year of the contract term beyond two years. The possibility of
locking-in energy prices at or below 4 cents per kWh for a period that terminates
in seven years is truly remarkable based upon the history of deregulation.
Meeting Date: February 23, 2016
Staff Contact: Clayton Fulton
Exhibits: Yes
City Secretary-1 - TCAP Contract - Staff Report
The City has three contract options with TCAP.
Option 1:
This option results in fixed price for all usage regardless of the time of day. This
option presents the greatest amount of predictability for electric rates and uses
the fixed price as outlined above.
Option 2:
This option will provide the same fixed price as option 1 but limit that pricing for
all on-peak usage with spot market pricing for off-peak usage. Spot pricing is
variable and can change every 15 minutes. Therefore it is impossible to
establish a specific price for spot pricing and savings cannot be guaranteed.
This option subjects the city to the risk of increasing rates for off-peak usage, with
market prices at historic recent term lows, both spot prices and fixed prices have
fallen and their price differential has shrunk to the point that future savings from
the spot market may not be as great as the risk of future price increases.
Option 3:
This option provides for the purchase of block power to cover the base use of all
members selecting option three. Block power represents a firm commitment 24
hours a day and results in the cheapest form of energy on the wholesale market.
Daytime peak consumption will be partly covered by a fixed price for solar with all
other consumption supplied by the spot market.
TCAP has indicated that with current prices about a half cent less than the price
that existed when Option 2 was conceptualized last spring, it will be difficult for
Option 2 to generate savings sufficient to justify its selection. Option 3 with its
majority reliance on the cheapest form of energy has a greater probability than
Option 2 of producing savings over Option 1. But again, with such low Option 1
fixed priced products now available to TCAP members and since there are no
guarantees that Options 2 or 3 will produce significant savings, staff believes
Option 1 provides the best choice.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The attached Resolution authorizes the execution of a contract to purchase
electricity through TCAP under Option 1. With the historic low rates and
opportunity lock in the rate for 5 years this represents the safest commitment and
insulates all usage from the risk of increased rates.
In addition, the resolution would name the City Manager, Deputy City Manager,
Finance Director, Mayor, Mayor Pro-Tem, and Deputy Mayor Pro-Tem as
potential signers as the contract must be execute within 24 hours of the locking in
the rate.

AGENDA SUBJECT: Briefing/Discussion regarding City Hall Debt
SUMMARY:
As staff have been working with our architects to determine preliminary design
and site locations for a future City Hall, we have also been consulting with our
financial advisors to evaluate potential debt scenarios as it relates to a new City
Hall.
With the recent action to authorize the purchase of the land for the new City
Hall, staff have invited our financial advisors to discuss the impact of
financing the $600,000 land purchase under a short term note to be repaid
from future bond proceeds issued to construct the City Hall.

AGENDA SUBJECT: Briefing regarding Police Department Grant Applications
SUMMARY: Each Fiscal Year, we scan the various grant funding mechanisms
to determine if we can compete for grants that are being offered through the
NCTCOG, via the Governor's office, originating from the Federal Justice
Assistance program. As you may recall, we applied for two grants last FY, one
adding a School Resource Officer to the staff and one that would fund the salary
and benefits for an officer to be assigned as a Child Abuse/Family Violence
Detective. That Detective would replace the position we lost when we added
patrol supervisors in November of 2014. We won the SRO grant, but not the
additional Detective funding.
For FY 2017 we identified two Grants that I recommend that we compete for.
1. Radio Upgrade: You may recall that we are being mandated by the
Federal Government to upgrade from P25 Phase I radios to P25 Phase II
radios. The cost to upgrade our current number of radios is estimated to
be about $122k and without any grant funding, that amount would greatly
impact the General Fund. We intend to apply for a grant that will give us
approx $79k to assist us with this mandate. This grant would fund 13
portable radios with 1 extra battery each, 4 mobile radios, and 1 6-bank
radio charger. If we get this grant, the General Fund will be impacted in
the amount of approx $43k to fund the rest of the radio requirements.
2. Child Abuse/Family Violence Investigator: This JAG grant would, for 3-
years, fund the salary and benefits of a Police Officer to work criminal
cases involving those where the victims were children. Further, the
Detective would specialize in the investigation of those offenses classified
as family violence. If we were awarded this grant, the City will be
responsible for funding the uniforms and equipment necessary for a new
police officer position (approx $9,500) out of the General Fund and for the
next two years, the cost would be minimal for items such as replacement
uniforms, vehicle fuel, training tuition, etc.
At the end of the three-year period, the budget submitted by the Police
Department would include the full funding for this full-time, sworn, position.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
These Grants would help the City provide advanced law enforcement services to
our citizens without bearing the full costs. Further, it allows us to recover state
and federal tax dollars paid by our citizens and provide them with services that
directly benefit them. If these projects are something the Council would like to
see come to fruition, the staff will pursue these funding opportunities
enthusiastically.

Page 1 of 4
collection service through the City. Solid waste collection is mandatory for City of Anna

WATER AND WASTEWATER FACILITIES
On the effective date of annexation, any and all water or wastewater facilities owned by

maintained by the property owner served by the service connection.
Residents and owners of property in newly annexed areas that are located within the
City's water or wastewater CCN will be offered water and wastewater service in
accordance with City policies and ordinances in existence at the time of annexation or
as may be amended from time -to -time by the City Council. Generally, these ordinances
state that the land owner or customer must bear the cost of construction of water and
wastewater system facilities to a point where suitable connection to the existing system
can be made and service to the customer can be provided. All water and wastewater
facilities designed to connect to the City's existing system must be approved by the City
and meet all City zoning, subdivision, and other development ordinances and
requirements. The City may decline to provide water or wastewater service in areas
already receiving such services from another duly certificated services provider.
ROADS AND STREETS
On the effective date of annexation, any and all existing public roads or streets in the

Page 2 of 4
PARKS PLAYGROUNDS AND SWIMMING POOLS OR ANY
OTHER PUBLICLY OWNED FACILITY BUILDING OR SERVICE
The City Council of the City of Anna, Texas is not aware of the existence of any public
parks, public playgrounds, public swimming pools, or any other publicly owned facility,
building or service now located in the area proposed for annexation. In the event any
such parks, playgrounds, swimming pools, or any other public facilities, buildings or
services do exist and are public facilities, the City of Anna, Texas, upon acquisition of
such facilities at no cost to the City of Anna, Texas, will maintain such areas upon
annexation to the same extent and degree that it maintains public parks, public
playgrounds, public swimming pools, other public facilities buildings or services and
other similar areas of the City now incorporated in the City of Anna, Texas.
OTHER MUNICIPAL SERVICES
Following annexation by the City of Anna, Texas, the City will provide code
enforcement, planning, and animal control services to the newly annexed area, to the
extent such services are funded in the annual budget and provided by the City within its
full -purpose boundaries. Such services will be provided to the newly annexed area at
the same or similar level of service now being provided to other areas of the City of
Anna, Texas with similar topography, land use, and population density within the newly
annexed area.
CONSTRUCTION OF CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
The City Council of the City of Anna, Texas finds and determines it to be unnecessary
to acquire or construct specific capital improvements for the purposes of providing full
municipal services to the newly annexed area. The City Council finds and determines
that it has at the present time adequate facilities to provide the same type, kind and
level of service which exists in and is presently being administered to other areas
already incorporated in the City of Anna, Texas with the same or similar topography,
land use and population density.
SPECIFIC FINDINGS
The City Council of the City of Anna, Texas finds and determines that this proposed
Service Plan will not provide any fewer services and it will not provide a lower level of
service in the area proposed to be annexed than were in existence in the proposed area
at the time immediately preceding the annexation process. Furthermore, the City
Council of the City of Anna, Texas finds and determines that the rural nature of the area
is characteristically different from other more highly developed areas within the
corporate limits of the City of Anna, Texas. Consequently because of the differing
characteristics of topography, land use, and population density the service levels which
may ultimately be provided in the newly annexed area may differ somewhat from
Page 3 of 4
services provided in other areas of the City of Anna, Texas. These differences are
specifically dictated because of differing characteristics of the property. The City of
Anna, Texas will undertake to perform consistent with this service plan so as to provide
this newly annexed area with the same type, kind and quality of service presently
enjoyed by the citizens of the City of Anna, Texas who reside in areas of similar
topography, land use and population density.
TERM
This Service Plan shall be valid for a term of ten (10) years. Renewal of the
Service Plan shall be at the discretion of the City Council.
AMENDMENTS
This Service Plan may be amended if the City Council determines at a public
hearing that changed conditions or subsequent occurrences make this Service
Plan unworkable or obsolete. The City Council may amend the Service Plan to
conform to the changed conditions or subsequent occurrences pursuant to Texas
Local Government Code, Section 43.056.

AGENDA SUBJECT:
Consider/Discuss/Action regarding adoption of an Ordinance establishing
regulations for the construction and/or drilling of water wells.
SUMMARY:
It is prudent to take steps through regulation, permitting, and inspection, to
ensure that private wells are properly constructed and that there is a complete
physical separation between a private non -potable water source and the City's
potable water system when private wells are constructed, maintained, or
reconstructed. The proposed regulations would reduce or eliminate potential
contamination of the public water system due to improper construction or
incorrect location of a private well. The inspections and permitting required would
ensure compliance with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation
(TDLR), Texas Well Drillers Act regulations, the City's adopted electrical and
plumbing codes, as well as proper setbacks from property lines, buildings, or
potential contaminating sources.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the proposed ordinance.

AGENDA SUBJECT: Consider/Discuss/Take Action regarding a Resolution
authorizing approval of a contact with Texas Coalition for Affordable Power
(TCAP)
SUMMARY:
The City of Anna currently purchases power not supplied by the Grayson Collin
Co-op through a cooperative agreement with the Texas Coalition for Affordable
Power (TCAP). TCAP is a non-profit, political subdivision corporation, owned
and controlled by its 171 political subdivision members, the vast majority of
whom are cities. TCAP is governed by a 15 member board of directors, all of
whom must be city employees or elected city officials. As a political subdivision
corporation, TCAP is able to bypass retail electric providers and purchase
electricity on the wholesale market and directly negotiate rates. Our current
TCAP electricity contract expires at the end of 2017.
Beginning Feb. 25 TCAP will establish the size of the load and direct their
supplier to look for a rate of 4.1 cents per kWh and lock in pricing for a five-year
term. The suppliers and TCAP will monitor the energy market and have until
June 30, 2016 to lock in the rate. Once the rate is locked in, the City has 24
hours to execute the contract. According to TCAP, the actual price is likely to be
less than the benchmark price. The prices will become effective January 1, 2018.
Given that these prices are to be locked in 2016 and will not expire until
December 31, 2022, they are reflective of the lowest prices for electricity
experienced since the retail market was deregulated January 1, 2002. Generally
speaking, there ought to be an expectation that the price of energy will climb
marginally for each year of the contract term beyond two years. The possibility of
locking -in energy prices at or below 4 cents per kWh for a period that terminates
in seven years is truly remarkable based upon the history of deregulation.
City Secretary-1 - TCAP Contract - Staff Report
The City has three contract options with TCAP.
Option 1:
This option results in fixed price for all usage regardless of the time of day. This
option presents the greatest amount of predictability for electric rates and uses
the fixed price as outlined above.
Option 2:
This option will provide the same fixed price as option 1 but limit that pricing for
all on -peak usage with spot market pricing for off-peak usage. Spot pricing is
variable and can change every 15 minutes. Therefore it is impossible to
establish a specific price for spot pricing and savings cannot be guaranteed.
This option subjects the city to the risk of increasing rates for off-peak usage, with
market prices at historic recent term lows, both spot prices and fixed prices have
fallen and their price differential has shrunk to the point that future savings from
the spot market may not be as great as the risk of future price increases.
Option 3:
This option provides for the purchase of block power to cover the base use of all
members selecting option three. Block power represents a firm commitment 24
hours a day and results in the cheapest form of energy on the wholesale market.
Daytime peak consumption will be partly covered by a fixed price for solar with all
other consumption supplied by the spot market.
TCAP has indicated that with current prices about a half cent less than the price
that existed when Option 2 was conceptualized last spring, it will be difficult for
Option 2 to generate savings sufficient to justify its selection. Option 3 with its
majority reliance on the cheapest form of energy has a greater probability than
Option 2 of producing savings over Option 1. But again, with such low Option 1
fixed priced products now available to TCAP members and since there are no
guarantees that Options 2 or 3 will produce significant savings, staff believes
Option 1 provides the best choice.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The attached Resolution authorizes the execution of a contract to purchase
electricity through TCAP under Option 1. With the historic low rates and
opportunity lock in the rate for 5 years this represents the safest commitment and
insulates all usage from the risk of increased rates.
In addition, the resolution would name the City Manager, Deputy City Manager,
Finance Director, Mayor, Mayor Pro-Tem, and Deputy Mayor Pro-Tem as
potential signers as the contract must be execute within 24 hours of the locking in
the rate.

Exulanation of Whereas Clauses:
What is TCAP?
As reflected in the fourth and sevent hereas Claus TCAP is anon -profit, political
subdivision corporation, owned and controlle its 171 polit 1 subdivision members, the vast
majority of whom are cities. TCAP 2011 fro e merger of Cities Aggregation
Power Project ("CAPP") and So exa gr ct ("STAP"), both of which were
created in 2001, shortly before dere on beca e effective on January 1, 2002. TCAP is
governed by a 15 member boar direc , all of whom must be city employees or elected city
officials. Typically, board memb been mayors, city managers, assistant city managers,
finance directors or cityddillIhm.
Market Benefits
An individ city, citizenjr commercial customer can only purchase power directly
from a RjJ111&ctri eider (" ") which under Texas law exists to give the impression of a
Wt. t generate electricity, nor can they own wires. REPS are
lemen between the wholesale and retail markets. As reflected in the second
s, TCAP, as a political subdivision corporation, uniquely can go
who lesa market. CAPP and STAP, prior to their merger into TCAP, separated
een a wholesale supplier and an independent REP, providing TCAP consultants
ght into the margins of various market participants than would be possible for
A broker or a REP would hand a form contract to an individual consumer. In
case of TCAP, no form contract is acceptable and, because of the size of TCAP's load, both
holesale suppliers and REPS are willing to negotiate contract terms that are beneficial to TCAP
mbers, enabling the refunds members have consistently received, special terms for adds and
s, including an ability to add new loads at current market prices even if the market price is
lower than the price of the master agreement.
TCAP's benefits regarding pricing
TCAP's membership consumes approximately 1.4 billion kWh annually which amounts
to approximately $100 million in revenue for the wholesale provider at current contract prices.
The value of the aggregated load is extremely appealing to wholesale market pa '
enabling TCAP to get the market competitive pricing at any particular moment. As cted i
the third Whereas clause, in addition to the size of its load, TCAP derives efit from
geographic diversity. TCAP members reside in all four ERCOT zones and ar sp between
the entire length and breadth of Texas, from Wichita Falls to Harlingen a ort on to
Palestine. Since consumption is influenced by weather and since weathe ditions are in
the same across all of Texas, it is unlikely that all TCAP me s are hing
consumption simultaneously. If the peaks of all TCAP members we tale e sum wou
equal 313.1 MW. But a wholesale supplier looks at the peak consu of TC an
aggregated load rather than the sum of the peaks of all memb P's p ema 246.9
MW. That reduction in peak is a specific and unique bene f aggre at*on. ike other
aggregation groups that accept counties and school distric s me AP focused its
membership on cities and other political subdivisions th relati hip with cities to
maintain the very favorable load factor of cities h o peak co ption from street
lights which provides favorable pricing terms.
History of CAPP, STAP, TCAP pricing
As reflected in the fifth and s clauses, gregated cities have historically
been interested in flat, fixed -price, e m nd price stability. The resolution
under consideration maintains goal fo five- riod at a price much lower than the
current contract price. In 200 , PP an AP were able to obtain prices for energy at 4 cents
per kWh. Very quickly after ret ation was implemented, natural gas prices started to
rise, and they continu up trend until late 2008. In late 2008, CAPP cities were
paying approximate .5 ce r k Fear that natural gas price volatility would continue
to result in high el icity rates, P c were excited to lock -in long term rates beginning
in 2009 that wer 'gnificantly to r than prices experienced in the 2007-2008 time frame.
STAP cities experi d their high rate in 2006 at slightly more than 9 cents per kWh. STAP
cities sa dro round 7 ents per kWh in 2008 and were happy to find a contract that
woul ilize ces i cent range for an extended period. When CAPP and STAP
me rs sign ew contacts in late 2008, no one could have predicted that the economy was
ab en recession and that fracking would bring a glut of natural gas to a
ggrkOlqWeduced deMand, putting natural gas and electricity prices into a downward trend.
P%natZWas prices have continued to drop and now TCAP members have an opportunity to
ago cap es in the range of, and hopefully below, 4 cents per kWh.
Requirements
As explained in the tenth Whereas clause, there is no legal requirement that a city engage
ompetitive bidding process prior to contracting for electricity. The primary expectation of
co tracting for wholesale energy in a deregulated energy market is that a purchaser sign a
contract accepting a particular offered price within 24 hours of receipt of the offer. NYMEX gas
futures prices change daily, and since gas prices drive electricity prices, it is unlikely that any
2
given price quote for wholesale electricity during a given period will remain open for more than
a day. As explained in the ninth Whereas clause, TCAP members are expected to immediately
execute a contract once TCAP's supplier is able to lock in a price at or below the benchmark
prices specified in the resolutions for a five-year period commencing January 1, 2018. That is
why Section 2 of the resolution requires the naming of specific individuals with who
can correspond and provide a contract for signing when appropriate.
Resolution's Objective
As explained in the eleventh thru fourteenth Whereas clauses, a e size of ad
for the 2015 contract opportunity is defined by February 25, 2016, TC supplie ill loo
an opportunity to lock prices for the five-year term at or below speci i nch s (4.1 — 4.
cents per kWh). That may happen by the second week of March, but if i that p ' are
trending downward, TCAP will direct its designated suppli Era, ily or the
market to hopefully capture a price under lower than be arked prices. ndow of
opportunity for capturing a reasonable price at or below th ench ex y June 30,
2016. TCAP will develop another supply opportunity in t 016 any members not
contracting in this offering. -.9111oft—
TCAP benefits to the consuming public
Whereas clause six references TCAP oming a force voice for consumer protections
and market reform to benefit the publi el olitical su isions. When CAPP and STAP
merged in 2011, one of the guidin es ed ' etings with members and through
subsequent board priority-setti eetings s tha should advocate for reforms in the
market that would enhance c tition enefit the general public. TCAP has become the
closest thing to a consumer ad e exists in the deregulated marketplace on both the
wholesale and retail s' the ess. TCAP membership not only provides political
subdivisions with r ces nit aTkets, capture reasonable prices and best available
terms, stabilize bu ts, address ble ith invoices and help with governmental reports,
provide best of cl portals to u stand consumption patterns, membership also affords an
opportunity to repr t to constitu s that they have an advocate on their behalf.
J^ OICE OF SUPPLY OPTION
Whe identifies three different supply options that TCAP has arranged as
i
ch member. Option 1 is a fixed price for all consumption regardless of time of day.
ic not exceed 4.1 cents per kWh in the North and West ERCOT zones. It will not
ex4.2 s per kWh in the Houston and South zones. The actual price is likely to be less
te bench ark prices. The prices will become effective January 1, 2018. Given that these
ces are to be locked in 2016 and will not expire until December 31, 2022, they are reflective
of the lowest prices for electricity experienced since the retail market was deregulated January 1,
2. Generally speaking, there ought to be an expectation that the price of energy will climb
finally for each year of the contract term beyond two years. The possibility of locking -in
energy prices at or below 4 cents per kWh for a period that terminates in seven years is truly
remarkable based upon the history of deregulation.
3
In the Spring of 2015, TCAP consultants received indicative fixed -prices around 4.5
cents per kWh. They then developed two supply options to the fixed price full requirements
contract that offered attractive savings opportunities. Both Options 2 and 3 have variable
components related to the energy spot market. While the average spot price in the past three
years has been $32.14/Mwh (2013), $38.50/Mwh (2014), $25.53/Mwh (2015), respecti
important to note that spot market prices can change every 15 minutes, therefore it i Zndthus
to provide members a precise price for Options 2 and 3. While they provide an rt
savings off of the benchmarked prices for Option 1, savings cannot be gua ante Option 2 and 3 involve risk to that does not exist with Option 1. A T mem
completely risk adverse should select Option 1.
Option 2 fixes a price for the peak usage period and then turn e s arket for aM
off-peak usage. When TCAP was developing these products in 2014, th a large gh
gap between fixed price options and spot prices that this op ' ed v ttract' Now,
with market prices at historic recent term lows, both spot p ' and 1dr alien and
their price differential has shrunk to the point that futures ngs f et may not
be as great as the risk of future price increases. The followi low current spot
market prices have gone.

M
majority reliance on the cheapest form of energy has a greater probability than Option 2 of
producing savings over Option 1. But again, with such low Option 1 fixed priced products now
available to TCAP members, and since there are no guarantees that Options 2 or 3, which utilize
spot market pricing, will remain as attractive as they were even a few months ago.
