   TCEQ application links City ownership and Pilgrim’s operation of Southwest WWTP

   The application identifies the City as owner of the facility and land and as co-applicant with Pilgrim’s Pride. Attachment A contains their 1988 Operating and Permitting Agreement, including Pilgrim’s operating obligations, City approval of capital improvements over $100,000, debt-service reimbursement, other customer connections, and a permit-transfer provision.

   Context, limits & source references

   The cited application and agreement establish their stated terms. They do not establish whether the agreement was later amended, what payments are current, or the outcome of a particular records request. The Southwest plant is distinct from the Southside plant.

   The supplied permit list and history need to be read together

   The City’s list shows permit 24-0156, construction value $1,023,210, fees $5,704.97 and a paid date of April 24, 2024. The list header says “APRIL 2023–2024,” while Ankrum’s email describes April 2023. The manager history also shows an earlier permit-number change and a payment-field change from $5,704 to zero. The manager history names Eric King on the November 29, 2024 initial import and Zach Ringlein on December 9 updates. It also records later HS GovTech REST API activity.

   Context, limits & source references

   The date labels and payment-field history differ. The supplied fields alone do not establish a refund, nonpayment or waived fee; the payment ledger would be needed to resolve those questions. The HS GovTech agreement includes data conversion and technical support, providing a documented support route to examine alongside the later old-system explanation. The logs identify named accounts and system actions; they do not prove that all older records could be recovered.

   CAD asks the City to reconcile $19.63 million with a $1.02 million application

   In the September 2, 2025 email chain supplied by Titus CAD in August 2026, Dickerson asks Ankrum to reconcile CAR25958’s $19,633,400 construction value with the application’s $1,023,210. Ankrum confirms the lower value, says the old-to-new-system import left some things “jumbled,” and later says HS GovTech changed the permit number for a reason he does not know. The manager history records the September 2 valuation, status and description changes.

   Context, limits & source references

   The field is permit construction value, not the CAD tax appraisal. This evidence does not establish a tax reduction or that the correction itself was improper.
