FY 2026 Third Quarter Financial Report

The staff is pleased to present the financial update for the third quarter of FY2026. This report
offers a detailed overview of the fiscal status for both our operating funds and capital projects
funds.
Operating Funds:
Through June 30, 2026, the City’s operating funds remain in a positive financial position. Year-todate revenues totaled approximately $76.0 million, or 81.5% of the annual budget, while
expenditures totaled $73.8 million, or 65.3% of budget. Overall, operating revenues exceeded
expenditures by approximately $2.2 million. The General Fund collected $38.1 million, or 85.1%
of budget, and expended $41.4 million, or 68.4% of budget. General Fund expenditures include
approximately $9 million transferred to the Street Reconstruction Fund for pay-as-you-go capital
projects.
The Water and Sewer Fund collected $22.3 million, or 72.5% of budget, and expended $20.4
million, or 59.3% of budget. The Crime Control Fund collected 81.8% of its budget while spending
56.6%, and the Debt Service Fund collected 92.5% while expending 77.0%. Revenue
percentages vary based on collection timing, particularly property taxes, most of which are
received earlier in the fiscal year. Overall expenditures remain below the 75% third-quarter
benchmark, although fourth-quarter Water and Sewer costs generally increase with higher
summer water usage.
Capital Improvement Funds:
Capital Improvement Program funds generated $25.8 million in revenue, or 77.0% of the annual
budget, and expended $10.8 million, or 24.6% of budget. The Street Reconstruction Fund
received $12.8 million, including the $9 million General Fund transfer, and spent $3.9 million. The
Water and Sewer Capital Projects Fund received $6.3 million and spent $3.8 million. Because
most capital projects extend across multiple fiscal years and often coordinate street, water, sewer,
and drainage improvements, the timing of revenues and expenditures will vary significantly
throughout the project cycle.
The Finance Team prepared this monthly financial report and is available to answer any questions
related to its content.
Sincerely,

Stormy Johnson, CPA, CGFO, CPM
Director of Finance

Highlight:
Although capital project revenue has increased substantially compared to this time last year, the current total stands
at 77% only 2% above the 75% benchmark. This growth is primarily attributable to a transfer from the General Fund
to the Street Reconstruction Fund, intended to support various citywide capital projects.

Highlight:
During the third quarter, the Street Reconstruction and Capital Improvement funds accounted for the majority of
expenditures. It is important to note that street improvements are frequently coordinated with the replacement of
water, sewer, and drainage infrastructure. Consequently, the costs for these projects are often spread across the
Street Reconstruction, Water & Sewer Capital Projects, and Drainage funds over multiple years. Additionally, the
Capital Replacement fund saw a notable increase in May, driven by non-cash lease amortization expenses. As of the
third quarter, total expenditures are at 24.6% of the annual budget.

CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM/RESOLUTION
City Council Meeting:

Monday, September 28, 2026, 6:00 PM

Department:

Economic Development

Subject:

MULTI-YEAR AGREEMENT- Placer Labs, Inc. for
Placer.ai Location Analytics Services

PURPOSE
To consider and act upon approving a multi-year agreement with Placer Labs, Inc. for Placer.ai
location analytics services for the period of October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2028, in a total
amount not to exceed $42,404, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement on
behalf of the City.
BACKGROUND
The City of Haltom City currently utilizes Placer.ai, a location analytics platform provided by Placer
Labs, Inc., to support the City's economic development activities. The City's existing Order Form
with Placer Labs, Inc. was executed on or about June 1, 2025.
Placer.ai provides location analytics and market intelligence tools that assist Economic
Development staff in evaluating commercial activity, trade areas, customer visitation patterns, retail
performance, business recruitment opportunities, redevelopment opportunities, and other market
conditions. The platform provides staff with data and analysis used to support business attraction
and retention efforts, respond to development inquiries, evaluate prospective projects and sites,
and provide market information to businesses, developers, brokers, and other stakeholders.
In anticipation of the expiration of the City's current subscription, staff negotiated a two-year
renewal with Placer Labs, Inc. rather than continuing with successive annual renewals. The multiyear commitment provides the City with a reduced subscription rate and locks in negotiated pricing
for the full two-year term, providing greater budget certainty and protecting the City from potential
annual price increases during the agreement period.
The proposed Amendment to the City's existing Order Form establishes an additional two-year
subscription term beginning October 1, 2026 and ending September 30, 2028. The agreement
provides continued Platform Access and includes Expanded Chains Reports, Void Analysis,
Events, and Esri Basemaps.
Based on the annual renewal pricing available during negotiations compared with the negotiated
multi-year pricing, staff estimates that entering into the two-year agreement will save the City
approximately $3,000 to $6,000 over the two-year period, while maintaining uninterrupted access
to the platform.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the proposed two-year agreement is $42,404, consisting of $20,685 for the first
year and $21,719 for the second year.
The subscription costs are as follows:
Subscription Period

Amount

October 1, 2026 – September 30, 2027

$20,685

October 1, 2027 – September 30, 2028

$21,719

Total

$42,404

The agreement provides for annual invoicing, with invoices payable within 30 days of the invoice
date.
The two-year agreement was negotiated to secure more favorable pricing than would be available
through successive annual renewals and to lock in the City's subscription pricing for the duration of
the agreement. Based on the annual renewal pricing available during negotiations, staff estimates
the multi-year agreement will result in approximately $3,000 to
$6,000 in savings over the two-year term.
In addition to the estimated direct cost savings, the multi-year agreement provides budget certainty
by establishing the City's subscription costs through September 30, 2028.
Funding for the subscription will be provided through the Economic Development Department's
approved operating budget for the applicable fiscal years.
POLICY / LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
The proposed agreement is structured as an Amendment to the City's existing Order Form with
Placer Labs, Inc. and establishes an additional subscription term beginning October 1, 2026 and
ending September 30, 2028. Except as modified by the proposed Amendment, the existing Order
Form remains in full force and effect. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the
Amendment and the existing Order Form, the terms of the Amendment will govern.
The Amendment also incorporates supplemental terms and conditions associated with the City's
access to Esri Basemaps through the Placer platform.
The agreement establishes the subscription pricing for the full two-year term. Annual fees
applicable to any subsequent Additional Term may be subject to an increase of up to the greater of
eight percent (8%) or CPI unless Placer provides notice of different pricing at least thirty days prior
to the applicable Additional Term. Any such increase would become effective only upon
commencement of a subsequent Additional Term.

Approval of this item authorizes the City Manager to execute the Amendment to Order Form with
Placer Labs, Inc. on behalf of the City.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the multi-year agreement with Placer Labs, Inc. for Placer.ai
location analytics services for the period of October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2028, in a total
amount not to exceed $42,404, and authorization for the City Manager to execute the agreement
on behalf of the City.
The two-year agreement secures negotiated subscription pricing for the duration of the term and is
estimated to save the City approximately $3,000 to $6,000 compared with successive annual
renewals.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HALTOM CITY:
That the above stated Staff recommendation is hereby approved and authorized, and the City
Council hereby approves the Amendment to Order Form with Placer Labs, Inc. for Placer.ai
location analytics services for an additional term beginning October 1, 2026 and ending September
30, 2028, in a total amount not to exceed Forty-Two Thousand Four Hundred Four Dollars
($42,404.00).
The City Manager is hereby authorized to execute the Amendment to Order Form with Placer
Labs, Inc. on behalf of the City of Haltom City and to take such actions as may be necessary to
effectuate the agreement.
PASSED AND APPROVED at a regular meeting of the City Council of the City of Haltom City,
Texas this 28th day of September, 2026, at which meeting a quorum was present, held in
accordance with the provisions of the Texas Open Meetings Act, Chapter 551, Texas Government
Code.

MEMORANDUM
September 9, 2026

To: Haltom City Council
Department: Economic Development
Subject: Multi-Year Agreement with Placer Labs, Inc. for Location Analytics Services
PURPOSE
To consider and act upon approving a multi-year agreement with Placer Labs, Inc. for
Placer.ai location analytics services for the period of October 1, 2026 through September 30,
2028, in a total amount not to exceed $42,404, and authorizing the City Manager to execute
the agreement on behalf of the City.
BACKGROUND
The City of Haltom City currently utilizes Placer.ai, a location analytics platform provided by
Placer Labs, Inc., to support the City's economic development activities. The City's existing
Order Form with Placer Labs, Inc. was executed on or about June 1, 2025.
Placer.ai provides location analytics and market intelligence tools that assist Economic
Development staff in evaluating commercial activity, trade areas, customer visitation patterns,
retail performance, business recruitment opportunities, redevelopment opportunities, and
other market conditions. The platform provides staff with data and analysis used to support
business attraction and retention efforts, respond to development inquiries, evaluate
prospective projects and sites, and provide market information to businesses, developers,
brokers, and other stakeholders.
In anticipation of the expiration of the City's current subscription, staff negotiated a two-year
renewal with Placer Labs, Inc. rather than continuing with successive annual renewals. The
multi-year commitment provides the City with a reduced subscription rate and locks in
negotiated pricing for the full two-year term, providing greater budget certainty and protecting
the City from potential annual price increases during the agreement period.
The proposed Amendment to the City's existing Order Form establishes an additional twoyear subscription term beginning October 1, 2026 and ending September 30, 2028. The
agreement provides continued Platform Access and includes Expanded Chains Reports, Void
Analysis, Events, and Esri Basemaps.
Based on the annual renewal pricing available during negotiations compared with the
negotiated multi-year pricing, staff estimates that entering into the two-year agreement will
save the City approximately $3,000 to $6,000 over the two-year period, while maintaining
uninterrupted access to the platform.

pg. 1

FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the proposed two-year agreement is $42,404, consisting of $20,685 for the
first year and $21,719 for the second year.
The subscription costs are as follows:
Subscription Period
Amount
October 1, 2026 – September 30, 2027 $20,685
October 1, 2027 – September 30, 2028 $21,719
Total
$42,404
The agreement provides for annual invoicing, with invoices payable within 30 days of the
invoice date.
The two-year agreement was negotiated to secure more favorable pricing than would be
available through successive annual renewals and to lock in the City's subscription pricing for
the duration of the agreement. Based on the annual renewal pricing available during
negotiations, staff estimates the multi-year agreement will result in approximately $3,000 to
$6,000 in savings over the two-year term.
In addition to the estimated direct cost savings, the multi-year agreement provides budget
certainty by establishing the City's subscription costs through September 30, 2028.
Funding for the subscription will be provided through the Economic Development
Department's approved operating budget for the applicable fiscal years.
POLICY / LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
The proposed agreement is structured as an Amendment to the City's existing Order Form
with Placer Labs, Inc. and establishes an additional subscription term beginning October 1,
2026 and ending September 30, 2028. Except as modified by the proposed Amendment, the
existing Order Form remains in full force and effect. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency
between the Amendment and the existing Order Form, the terms of the Amendment will
govern.
The Amendment also incorporates supplemental terms and conditions associated with the
City's access to Esri Basemaps through the Placer platform.
The agreement establishes the subscription pricing for the full two-year term. Annual fees
applicable to any subsequent Additional Term may be subject to an increase of up to the
greater of eight percent (8%) or CPI unless Placer provides notice of different pricing at least
thirty days prior to the applicable Additional Term. Any such increase would become effective
only upon commencement of a subsequent Additional Term.
Approval of this item authorizes the City Manager to execute the Amendment to Order Form
with Placer Labs, Inc. on behalf of the City.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the multi-year agreement with Placer Labs, Inc. for Placer.ai
location analytics services for the period of October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2028, in
a total amount not to exceed $42,404, and authorization for the City Manager to execute the
agreement on behalf of the City.
The two-year agreement secures negotiated subscription pricing for the duration of the term
and is estimated to save the City approximately $3,000 to $6,000 compared with successive
annual renewals.
