NOTICE OF A PUBLIC MEETING Pursuant to Section 2254.1036 ofthe Texas Government Code, notice is hereby given that a meeting ofthe Bexar County Emergency Services District #3 will be held on May 13, 2025 at 5:30 PM at the Bexar Bulverde Fire Department Station #105 located at 25408 Canyon Golf Road, San Antonio, Texas 78260, for the purpose of considering and taking action on all matters on the agenda for the meeting, including approval of an agreement with the law firm of Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, LLP as special counsel to perform all legal services necessary to collect delinquent property taxes and authorizing the execution of such agreement. The agreement to be considered is necessary for the delinquent taxes owed to Bexar County Emergency Services District #3 to be collected in the most effective manner. The Bexar County Emergency Services District #3 desires that such delinquent tax, penalties and interest be collected as provided in the Texas Tax Code. The Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, LLP firm is fully qualified to provide this representation, being the largest delinquent tax collection law firm in the State ofTexas, as well as the United States and having been engaged in this specialized legal service for more than 40 years. In addition, the Linebarger Goggan Blair and Sampson, LLP firm possesses infrastructure and technology, such as call center technology, that the Bexar County Emergency Services District #3 does not currently possess. Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson, LLP has represented Bexar County Emergency Services District #3, in the collection of delinquent property taxes, beginning on January 18, 2005. The specialized legal services required by this agreement cannot be adequately performed by the attorneys and supporting personnel of the Bexar County Emergency Service District #3 due to the high cost ofi implementing the appropriate infrastructure and technology and employing sufficient in- house attorneys and staff or by private attorneys paid at an hourly rate with the level of experience and competence necessary to perform these activities. Linebarger will be compensated on a contingent fee basis as provided in the Texas Tax Code Sections 6.30, 33.07, 33.08, 33.11, and 33.48. These Texas Tax Code sections specifically provide for an additional penalty on delinquent taxes to compensate collection attorneys. A contract to pay inside or outside attorneys on an hourly basis would represent an additional cost to the Bexar County Emergency Services District #3. Entering into the proposed agreement is in the best interest oft the residents oft the Bexar County Emergency Services District #3 because the delinquent taxes will be professionally and competently collected without the additional costs to the District of implementing infrastructure and technology, and employing in-house personnel or paying outside counsel on an hourly fee basis which would otherwise be required.
