MAYOR AND COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
DATE:

August 4, 2026

TO:

Mayor and Council

FROM:

Sarah Woeppel, Economic Development & Special Projects Director

THROUGH:

Dr. Crystal Caldera, City Manager

SUBJECT:

Presentation, Discussion and Possible Direction to Staff on City’s
Economic Development Incentive Policy

SPONSOR(S):

N/A

PURPOSE & BACKGROUND
The City of Leon Valley's Economic and Community Development Grant Policy establishes the
framework for administering the City's economic development incentive programs. These
incentives are intended to encourage business attraction, business expansion, property
reinvestment, and community enhancement projects that generate long-term economic and
quality-of-life benefits.
Under the policy adopted by City Council in August 2023, all incentive requests are reviewed
by the Economic Development Director, City Manager, or their designee before being
presented to City Council for consideration. Applications are evaluated using several criteria,
including projected sales tax generation, job creation, increases in property values, capital
investment, reduction of commercial vacancies, financial viability, compatibility with zoning and
surrounding land uses, and the overall benefit to the Leon Valley community.
The City currently administers several incentive programs to support redevelopment and
placemaking efforts. The Commercial Property Demolition and Lot Clearing Grant Program
provides reimbursement assistance for qualifying properties that are at least 20 years old, with
awards capped at $100,000. The Façade and Building Improvement Grant Program assists
commercial property and business owners with eligible exterior improvements, including
façade restoration, painting, signage, awnings, and window or door replacements. Award
amounts are currently determined based on project scope and demonstrated costs.
Eligible projects may also qualify for the Leon Valley Business Grant Program, which offers
grants and ad valorem tax rebates to businesses locating, expanding, or reinvesting within the
City. Incentives are intended to encourage new development, redevelopment, capital
investment, and increased sales and property tax revenues.

Page 7 of 318

{Section}.32.

In addition to direct financial incentives, the City offers development fee waivers and
participates in the Texas Property Assessed Clean Energy (TX-PACE) Program. Through its
partnership with the Alamo Area Council of Governments (AACOG), TX-PACE provides
private financing for commercial energy efficiency, renewable energy, and water conservation
improvements.
Businesses investing in Leon Valley may also be eligible for county and state incentive
programs. Bexar County offers grants, tax abatements, and workforce development
assistance, while the State of Texas administers programs such as the Jobs, Energy,
Technology and Innovation (JETI) Act, the Texas Enterprise Zone Program, and the Freeport
Tax Exemption. These programs can complement local incentives and further reduce project
costs.
The Economic Development Director reviews all applications and submits recommendations to
City Council for final consideration. Incentive awards are subject to available funding. The FY
2026 budget includes $324,246 for economic development incentive programs, while funding
for FY 2027 will be determined through the annual budget process and City Council approval.

FISCAL IMPACT
None. This item is for briefing purposes only.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff reviewed the City's existing incentive policies for competitiveness against benchmark
Texas cities, historical program performance, and compliance with applicable state law. Of the
fifteen benchmark cities evaluated, six have clearly defined target industries or prioritize
specific types of development within their incentive policies. Additionally, six of the benchmark
cities currently offer, or have historically offered, tax abatement agreements authorized under
Chapter 312 of the Texas Tax Code. These findings informed staff's recommended updates to
ensure Leon Valley's incentive policies remain competitive, strategic, and aligned with best
practices.

To strengthen Leon Valley's competitiveness by supporting business retention, attracting new
investment, and generating positive economic and community benefits, staff recommends that
City Council authorize the development of revisions to the City's Economic Development
Incentives Policy through the following actions:
1. Prioritize target industries that align with the City's 2025 Strategic Plan and future
development and redevelopment goals:
o Destination retail, restaurants, and entertainment concepts that demonstrate
market uniqueness.
o Commercial office-based sales industries (e.g., medical equipment suppliers,
software and hardware sales, wholesale distributors).
o Hotels.
2. Establish a formal tax abatement policy consistent with Chapter 312 of the Texas Tax
Code.
3. Adopt objective eligibility criteria, including minimum job creation and capital investment
thresholds, as well as standardized maximum incentive award calculations for tax
abatements and rebates.
4. Cap Façade and Building Improvement Grant awards at a maximum of $10,000 per
project.
5. Limit ad valorem tax rebates to the City's Maintenance and Operations (M&O) tax rate
only (currently $0.497818).
6. Require annual reporting to strengthen compliance, performance monitoring, and
transparency.
7. Require a portion of each incentive award to support eligible workforce development
initiatives, public green space and tree planting, and/or public art.
8. Update the incentive application to reflect all approved policy revisions.
These recommendations align with the City's 2025 Strategic Plan by promoting sustainable

Ad Valorem Tax Impact
1

Loss Pattern
How much lost in protest?

This reflects the reduction in property values due to
protests and appraisal adjustments during the year.
In 2025, values decreased by approximately $54
million as part of the appraisal review process,
which is incorporated into the final taxable values.

{Section}.33.

Market Condition
Are values up or down overall?

This comparison looks at where values begin each
year, before any protest reductions. Values are
slightly lower when comparing the 2025 and 2026
tax year beginning values, based on the appraisal
district’s certified values. Beginning values can
change due to new construction, updated
appraisals based on market data, and changes in
exemptions or property characteristics.

Revenue Reality
What will hit our budget?

This comparison reflects the expected final taxable
value after accounting for reductions from protests
and litigation. The appraisal district establishes final
values through the appraisal review process, and
these estimates are provided for planning purposes
using historical trends. This is the value that directly
impacts property tax revenue.

{Section}.63.

STAFF COMMENTS:
The amendments to Chapter 6 Health and Sanitation are a result of House Bill 2844 which
declares that mobile food vendors no longer need a separate city or county health permits.
Additionally, Senate Bill 1008 declares that childcare facilities and schools are not
required to obtain a city food establishment permit.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact is minimal with only (3) NISD schools in the city and only (5) food truck
permits issued this fiscal year.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve the proposed amendment to Chapter 6 Health
and Sanitation. The required changes are due to State Legislative updates.

Sec. 6.05.002 Purpose
The Surgeon General of the United States has declared that smoking is the number one public health issue.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency has concluded that passive smoking poses a public risk larger
than the hazardous air pollutants from all industrial emissions combined. The city recognizes the evidence that
smoke creates a danger to the health of some citizens and is a cause of annoyance and discomfort to those who
are in confined spaces where the same is present. The city also recognizes that it is the right of citizens to choose
whether or not to smoke actively or passively and it is the policy of the city to encourage food service
establishments that have enclosed dining areas to provide adequate seating for patrons and employers and
employees of such establishments who prefer a smoke-free environment. In order to protect the health, safety
and welfare of the general public as well as protect the rights of smokers and non-smokers, this article has been
created to restrict smoking in public places, except in areas designated as smoking areas.

Labor charge. If the charge for providing a copy of public information includes costs of labor, a
governmental body shall comply with the requirements of § 552.261(b) of the Texas Government
Code. Labor charge for locating, compiling, manipulating data, and reproducing public information
costs incurred in processing a request is $15.00 per hour. The labor charge includes the actual time to
locate, compile, manipulate data, and reproduce the requested information.
(A)

(B)

A labor charge shall not be billed in connection with complying with requests that are for 50 or
fewer pages of paper records, unless the documents to be copied are located in:
(i)

Two or more separate buildings that are not physically connected to each other (two
buildings connected by a covered or open sidewalk, an elevated or underground
passageway, or a similar facility, are not considered to be separate buildings); or

(ii)

A remote storage facility.

A labor charge shall not be recovered for any time spent by an attorney, legal assistant, or any
other person who reviews the requested information:
(i)

To determine whether the governmental body will raise any exceptions to disclosure of the
requested information under the Texas Government Code, subchapter C, chapter 552; or

(ii)

(4)

(5)

(6)

To research or prepare a request for a ruling by the Attorney General's office pursuant to §
552.301 of the Texas Government Code.

(C)

When confidential information pursuant to a mandatory exception of the Act is mixed with public
information in the same page, a labor charge may be recovered for time spent to redact,
blackout or otherwise obscure confidential information in order to release the public information
for requests of 50 or fewer pages, unless the request also qualifies for a labor charge pursuant to
Texas Government Code, § 552.261(a)(1) or (2).

(D)

If the charge for providing a copy of public information includes costs of labor, a governmental
body shall comply with the requirements of Texas Government Code, chapter 552, § 552.261(b).

Overhead charge.
(A)

Whenever any labor charge is applicable to a request, a governmental body may include in the
charges direct and indirect costs, in addition to the specific labor charge. This overhead charge
would cover such costs as depreciation of capital assets, rent, maintenance and repair, utilities,
and administrative overhead. If a governmental body chooses to recover such costs, a charge
shall be made in accordance with the methodology described in subsection (C) of this section.
Although an exact calculation of costs will vary, the use of a standard charge will avoid
complication in calculating such costs and will provide uniformity for charges made statewide.

(B)

An overhead charge shall not be made for requests for copies of 50 or fewer pages of standard
paper records unless the request also qualifies for a labor charge pursuant to Texas Government
Code, § 552.261(a)(1).

(C)

The overhead charge shall be computed at 20 percent of the charge made to cover any labor
costs associated with a particular request. Example: if one hour of labor is used for a particular
request, the formula would be as follows: Labor charge for locating, compiling, and reproducing,
$15.00 × .20 = $3.00; or programming labor charge, $28.50 × .20 = $5.70. If a request requires
one hour of labor charge for locating, compiling, and reproducing information ($15.00 per hour);
and one hour of programming labor charge ($28.50 per hour), the combined overhead would be:
$15.00 + $28.50 = $43.50 × .20 = $8.70.

Remote document retrieval charge.
(A)

Due to limited on-site capacity of storage documents, it is necessary to store information that is
not in current use in a remote location. Every effort should be made by governmental bodies to
store current records on-site. State agencies are encouraged to store inactive or non-current
records with the state library and archives commission. To the extent that the retrieval of
documents results in a charge to comply with a request, it is permissible to recover costs of such
services for requests that quality for labor charges under current law.

(B)

If a governmental body has a contract with a commercial records storage company, whereby the
private company charges a fee to locate, retrieve, deliver, and return to storage the needed
records, no additional labor charge shall be factored in for time spent locating documents at the
storage location by the private company's personnel. If after delivery to the governmental body,
the boxes must still be searched for records that are responsive to the request, a labor charge is
allowed.

Computer resource charge.
(A)

The computer resource charge is a utilization charge for computers based on the amortized cost
of acquisition, lease, operation, and maintenance of computer resources, which might include,
but is not limited to, some or all of the following: central processing units (CPUs), servers, disk

drives, local area networks (LANs), printers, tape drives, other peripheral devices,
communications devices, software, and system utilities.

(7)

(B)

These computer resource charges are not intended to substitute for cost recovery methodologies
or charges made for purposes other than responding to public information requests.

(C)

The charges in this subsection are averages based on a survey of governmental bodies with a
broad range of computer capabilities. Each governmental body using this cost recovery charge
shall determine which category(ies) of computer system(s) used to fulfill the public information
request most closely fits its existing system(s), and set its charge accordingly. Type of systemrate: mainframe—$10.00 per CPU minute; midsize—$1.50 per CPU minute; client/server—$2.20
per clock hour; PC or LAN—$1.00 per clock hour.

(D)

The charge made to recover the computer utilization cost is the actual time the computer takes
to execute a particular program times the applicable rate. The PU charge is not meant to apply to
programming or printing time; rather it is solely to recover costs associated with the actual time
required by the computer to execute a program. This time, called CPU time, is read directly from
the CPU clock, and most frequently will be a matter of seconds. If programming is required to
comply with a particular request, the appropriate charge that may be recovered for programming
time is set forth in subsection (3) of this section. No charge should be made for computer printout time. Example: If a mainframe computer is used, and the processing time is 20 seconds, the
charges would be as follows: $10/3 = $3.33; or $10/60 × 20 = $3.33.

Miscellaneous supplies.
(A)

The actual cost of miscellaneous supplies, such as labels, boxes, and other supplies used to
produce the requested information, may be added to the total charge for public information.

(B)

A governmental body that accepts payment by credit card for copies of public information and
that is charged a "transaction fee" by the credit card company may recover that fee.

(8)

Postage and shipping charges. Governmental bodies may add any related postal or shipping expenses
which are necessary to transmit the reproduced information to the requesting party.

(9)

(A)

living units. The requirements of this article apply only to short-term rentals, as defined herein, located in
residential zoning districts established under Chapter 15, Zoning of the City of Leon Valley Code of Ordinances.
Nothing in this article, however, shall be construed as a waiver of the requirement to assess and collect hotel
occupancy taxes for any residential rental for a period of less than 30 consecutive days of property located outside
of such residential-only zoning districts.
(Ord. No. 2023-41, § 1(Exh. A), 11-7-2023)

recovery or other purpose living home or similar enterprise; selling illegal drugs; selling alcohol or another
activity that requires a permit or license under the Alcoholic Beverage Code or operating as a sexually

(g)

In order to preserve the essential character of residential areas, it shall be unlawful in areas zoned for
residential use, no short- term rental shall operate within 200 feet 300-foot radius of another short-term
rental in areas zoned for residential use. on the same block face, measured property line to property line.
This provision does not apply to individuals registered by May 30, 2024. The 300-foot radius shall be
measured in a straight line from the nearest property line of the short-term rental in question to the nearest
property line of the other short-term rental, without regard to intervening structures, rights-of-way, or the
location of any dwelling unit on either lot.

(h)

All persons who register as a short-term rental must utilize their property as a short-term rental.
A special exception - In order to obtain a permit for a short-term rental that would otherwise violate the
minimum separation distance and lot limitation described herein, a property owner may apply to the city
council for a special exception.

Commented [CC1]: Art, I left this in here, but when
you're doing radius, should it be from the center of the
property? Or do a radius based on the property line? Just
need clarifying language here.
Commented [AR1R2]: I made some context changes and
clarified that 300' is from the property lines. if you prefer a
different method of measurement, we can make that
change.

The city council shall consider factors such as the following:

(i)

(j)

(1)

Whether operation as a short-term rental in excess of the density limitation will not adversely impact
the residential quality of the neighborhood in which the property is located;

(2)

Whether such operation is likely to disrupt adjacent owners' right to the quiet enjoyment of their
property (for example, by considering whether lot sizes are small enough that noise is likely to affect
neighboring property owners);

(3)

Whether such operation will substantially impact nearby streets, including whether the property
provides only limited off-street parking;

(4)

Whether the applicant seeks to operate an entire residence as a short-term rental or whether the
short-term rental use is limited to an accessory dwelling;

(5)

Whether the applicant occupies the premises as their primary residence or uses it as an investment
property; and

(6)

Whether other short-term rentals in excess of the minimum separation distance are already operating
on that block.
The owner or local emergency contact shall provide a sufficient number of trash, recycling, or refuse
containers to accommodate the waste generated by the maximum permitted occupancy of the shortterm rental. At a minimum, one trash receptacle shall be provided for every four (4) persons of maximum
permitted occupancy, rounded up to the next whole number. The owner or local emergency contact shall
ensure that any trash, recycling, refuse containers, or waste generated by the operation of the short-term
rental and dispersed beyond the property boundaries due to wind, animals, guests, or any other cause is
collected and properly disposed of within twenty-four (24) hours after notice from the city or discovery by
the owner or local emergency contact. Failure to comply will result in a citation and official violation as
per sec. 4.14.009.
The maximum overnight occupancy of a short-term rental shall comply with the occupancy standards of
the 2021 International Fire Code regarding residential units – Maximum Floor Area allowance per
occupant at 200 gross. Short-term Rental Owner must comply with all other applicable building and fire
codes adopted by the City. not exceed the number of occupants calculated by dividing the gross floor
area of the dwelling unit, as reflected in the applicable county appraisal district record or building permit,
by two hundred (200) square feet per occupant, consistent with the occupant load factor for "Residential"

Commented [CC2]: Art, there was some discussion on
tying in the number of people allowed to stay to a trash
receptacle, like one can for every four people, etc. But I
don’t have a point of reference for that. Thoughts?
Commented [AR2R2]: there isnt much that I could find
that would address this, but it seems like a 65 gallon cart is
generally sufficient for 4 people, so i kept that ratio.
Commented [CC3]: The 2021 IFC has a table under
1004.5, which is referenced as a possible measure. So that's
what I used, so a 2500 square foot home, the maximum
number of people would be 12.5, so 13. We don’t do C of O
for residential, which is what I think this provision is
referencing, but I think it's easy enough to find the square
footage of a home and apply this provision to an STR.
Thought?
Commented [AR3R2]: Changes only for further clarity

use set forth in Table 1004.5 of the 2021 International Fire Code, which the city adopts for purposes of
establishing maximum occupancy limits under this article. Where this calculation results in a fractional
number, the maximum occupancy shall be the next lowest whole number. Where a lower maximum
occupancy is established by an on-site sewage facility permit, septic system design, or other applicable
building, health, or fire code provision, the lower number shall control. The short-term rental owner shall
comply with all other applicable building and fire codes adopted by the city. For purposes of calculating
maximum occupancy of a short-term rental hereunder, "gross floor area" means the total enclosed,
conditioned floor area of the dwelling unit measured to the outside surfaces of the exterior walls,
including all habitable rooms, closets, interior hallways, stairwells, and bathrooms. The gross floor area of
a short-term rental shall be presumed to be the living area square footage reflected in the records of the
Bexar Appraisal District for the subject property as of the date of registration or renewal. An owner may
rebut this presumption by submitting a certified survey, architectural plan, or building permit record
establishing a different square footage, subject to verification by the city.
