Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Anderson

College Station, Texas 77840
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Anderson:
On Saturday, April 3, the College Station
Industrial Development Park will be dedicated at 1:00
p.m. The Park is located two miles south of College
Station °s city limit on the east side of Highway G.
Traffic will be directed by local law enforcement
officials. Although this day is the culmination of
months of effort and planning, it is just the
beginning of a new direction for our area. The
recent announcement by TAMU to develop a Research and
Development park will be an enhancement to our total
objective. It will not only add a new economic
stream to our community, but will complement the
faculty and add another step to deveioping TAMU into
preeminence. We hope that you will join us in this
dedication which we think will be the start of an
exciting decade of development.
A chili cook -off benefiting CRIMESTOPPERS,
sponsored by Krueger Dorm and WTAW, and other
festivities will begin at 10:00 a.m.
Your attendance will add much to the success of
the day. I look forward to seeing you on April 3.
Sincerely,
tc le_� �,
Dennis Goehring
President

Park has 20 years in f aeus
From page IF
R. "Bum" Bright, chairman of the A &M Board of
Regents, made a similar statement regarding the
university's proposed industrial park.
Which party will ultimately be responsible for
providing that type of high - technology atmosphere
here?
"The impetus will come from the university,"
Porter said. "If (Silicon Valley) happens here, it
will be because of Texas A &M, not because of Col-
lege Station. Our intention is to encourage that
growth and work in concert to the fullest extent."
Goehring says the city's industrial park "will br-
ing in whatever (industry) that technology brings in
the next decade."
"We'll address more what the needs of the
marketplace are. That's the exciting thing. We're
charting into the unknown."
He did say that the city and the foundation would
be interested in attracting firms in the same league
with, say, Westinghouse. Some of that will depend
on the demands that prospective firms will make of
the industrial park. But, Goehring said, the park
will generally be tailored to fit the needs of desirable
tenants.
The word "desirable" is also a key. The city
wants to attract "quality" industries here that will
complement Texas A &M and the community.
There will actually be more than an industrial
complex at the park site. Much more.
For the first time, the industrial. foundation
displayed to the public Saturdav a preliminary
master plan for the park, developed by the Houston
engineering firm of Turner Collie and Braden.
The proposed plan devotes a large portion of the
entrance area to high - technology, research and light
commercial development. But carefully integrated
into the plan are residential condominiums,
townhomes and single - family residences. And there
are also municipal recreational areas, a golf course,
cemetery and a sewage treatment plant.
In all, the development encompasses about 2,300
acres.
Until now, the industrial and residential areas
were being discussed as two separate developments
in most cases. Now, according to the preliminary
plan, residential, commercial and municipal ser-
vices would be integrated into one package.
Developer Bob Spearman, who sold the 1,200
acres to the city for industrial development for
$1.58 million last. summer, will develop all the
residential areas and some light commercial areas.
His cousin Jerry Spearman, and Jerry's wife Vadie,
will also develop about 500 acres.
The city will develop high- technology, municipal
services and recreational areas, including the golf
course.
Spearman said he is willing to swap acreage with
the city so that the park would have industrial land
fronting Highway 6. But he said no actual ex-
changes have taken place. Spearman said Friday
that the plan was so preliminary that he hadn't had
a chance to review it yet.
According to the plan, more than one -third of the
total development, up to 811 acres, could be
devoted to high - technology research while another
268 acres may go to light commercial activity.
Those figures will probably vary since the two areas
actually overlap on the map in some locations.
Residential development may assume close to 600
acres, recreational areas and the golf course could
account for another 396 acres and drainage reser-
voirs may fill more than 150 acres, according to the
preliminary drawing.
Goehring praised the city for planning ahead in
alloting space for municipal facilities in the park.
He indicated that those facilities will meet the
demands of the ever - expanding southern portions
of the city.
"They're bringing in the municipal needs of the
city for the next decade," he said.
And accordingly, the industrial park is designed
to help the state meet its research and development
needs for the next 20 years, Goehring said.
As pinpointed by Gov. Bill Clements' Texas 2000
Commission, which is charged with identifying
critical problem issues that will likely concern state
government during the next 20 years, there will be
an effort to step up research and development
within the state — instead of importing technology
from the outside.
Ten years from now, Goehring predicts the park
will have already had a "tremendous impact on this
community, Texas and the Sunbelt."
As for today, most of the excitement is still at the
mailbox. For Fortune 500 may soon be calling
again.

BRYAN COLLEGE STATION CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Policies on Industrial Development
It shall be the objective of the Bryan - College Station Chamber of
Commerce to develop programs to assist industrial firms interested in locating
in Brazos County. In doing so, it will cooperate with industrial foundations
or other organizations representing the political subdivisions in the county
s, .ho have an interest in attracting industry.
In pursuing its industrial development objectives, the Bryan - College
Station Chamber of Commerce shall be guided by the following policies:
1. The Chamber will designate one employee who shall be responsible
rc;r directing and managing the industrial development program.
2. The Chamber will be responsible for promotion of the two cities
and county as a potential industrial site and will be responsible for maintaining
information in attractive formats that will be of interest and usefulness to
industrial prospects. The Chamber will attempt to respond to all reasonable
requests for information in a timely fashion.
3. The Chamber will maintain a central file on all industrial
prospects. This file will contain all information provided by or collected
a "bout the prospect and will be the exclusive property of the Chamber executive
responsible for industrial development. Release of information in this file will
be governed by the following procedures:
a) Information in a prospect's file will be released in a manner
consistent with the requests for confidentiality by the client and /or when the
prospect is interested in active consideration of the community and will be
provided to all units representing political subdivisions (e.g., Brazos County
Industrial Foundation, College Station Industrial Development Foundation, etc.)
on an equal basis- -i.e., at the.,same time and in the same form.
b) It is expected that most industrial prospects will have their
initial contact with the Chamber of Commerce. Where the ' contact is
made by or with a unit of a political subdivision (e.g., BCIF, CSIDF, etc.),
~ .the unit involved will file information on this prospect with the Chamber of
Commerce executive responsible for industrial development. This prospect will
remain an ''exclusive client'' of the unit involved and the file will no be
shared with other units until the initiating unit agrees or until directed by
1,
2 -
the Vice President of the Industrial Division of the Chamber.
4. An Industrial Development Team, approved by the Chamber
Executive Committee, will be appointed to assist the Chamber executive
responsible for industrial development. Whatever information is appropriate
to be shared about a prospect will be shared with members of the team on an
equal basis. The Chamber executive will have discretion to use members of
the team in a manner consistent with the interests of the prospect.
5• When a decision to locate in Brazos County has been made by
an industrial prospect, information on the prospect will be released to all
parties that have a direct interest in this information (e.g., banks, real
estate firms, etc.) at the same time and in the same format.
6. Responsibility for monitoring compliance with these policies
will rest with the Vice President of the Industrial Division of the Bryan -
College Station Chamber of Commerce.

Dedication ceremonies set
Steve Lee/ Business Report
INDUSTRIAL PARK CEREMONY
SET. College Station Industrial Park is
having its dedication ceremonies Saturday
at 1 p.m., highlighted by a chili cook -off
and appearances by state and local of-
ficials.
The industrial park site is located about
two miles south of College Station on
Highway 6.
Dennis Goehring, president of the Col-
lege Station Industrial Foundation, said
the ceremony will usher in a "new era" of
research and development in Bryan -
College Station. He will provide an over-
view of the foundation's plans for the
park.
U. S. Rep. Phil Gramm of College Sta-
tion will be the featured speaker at the
ceremony. He will be joined on the dais
by state Sen. Kent Caperton and state
Rep. Bill Presnal, both of Bryan, College
Station Mayor Gary Halter and Steve
Arden, president of Bryan - College Sta-
tion Chamber of Commerce.
Other guests will include Johnny
Lampo, president of the Brazos County
Industrial Foundation, developers Bob
and Jerry Spearman, Steve Melton,
representing Brazos County Crimestop-
pers and Dr. Arthur Porter, director of
the Texas Engineering Experiment Station
and co- chairman of a new committee
formed to plan a new industrial research
park complex for Texas A &M University.
Goehring said Porter will speak on
behalf of A &M Chancellor Frank Hubert.
Representatives of Turner Collie and
Braden Engineers of Houston, the firm
planning the industrial park, will unveil
for the first time a 7 -by -9 -foot
preliminary rendering of the proposed
high - technology industrial complex.
In other activities planned in conjunc-
tion with the dedication, residents of
A &M's Krueger Hall dorm will stage a
day -long chili cook -off that Goehring
says has generated "a lot of local in-
terest." Also, Dick and Ruby Morse will
display a hot air balloon.
Proceeds from the cook -off go to
Crimestoppers.

As described in Note 1, the Foundation's policy is to report. on a
modified basis of cash receipts and cash disbursements; consequently, cer-
tain revenue and the related assets are recognized when received rather
than when earned, and certain expenses and the related liabilities are
recognized when paid rather than when the obligation is incurred. Accord-
ingly, the accompanying statements are not intended to present financial

MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MONTHLY MEETING OF THE COLLEGE STATION
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT BOARD OF DIRECTORS HELD MAY 20, 1982, AT
THE RAMADA INN IN COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS.
The meeting was called to by Dennis Goehring.
The following Directors were present:
Bill J. Cooley

J. B. Hervey
W. D. Fitch
Phyllis Hobson
D. H. Goehring

The minutes were read and approved by the Board.
Bill Phillips stated that the financial report by Tom Wallis will
be mailed to the Board members.
Steve Baker explained the new Certified Development Corporation
program being promoted by the Small Business Administration. He
stated that the program could provide 90% financing over a long
term for qualified businesses. The loan proceeds would be used
for land, capital improvements and fixed assets. The loan program
is a combined, fixed and variable rate combination.
In order for the foundation to serve as a vehicle for placement of
the Small Business Administration loan under this program it must
form a Certified Development Company, whether profit or non - profit,
and changes in the charter or by -laws of the industrial foundation
might be necessary.
Steve Baker and Dennis Goehring met with Gene Black and other bank
representatives concerning the program. They discussed examples of
qualified businesses. Their recommendation to the foundation was to
set up a committee to review the regulations and recommend by -law
changes, if necessary.
The Board of Directors discussed the program at some length.
There was a motion and second, passed unanimously by vote of the
Board, authorizing consideration and review of the program in prepa-
ration of a recommendation for the Board.
Dennis Goehring initiated a discussion of the marketing proposals.
Two proposals were presented. The local proposal by Stan Madden,
Mike Puse and Marilyn Green was recommended by Director Goehring.
He commented on the advantage of a local firm with pre- existing
knowledge of the community and a working relationship with Texas
A &M University as well.
Bill Fitch commented on the need for good marketing information.
Jim Scamardo made a motion to table the marketing proposals for
consideration and review by the Board. Steve Baker seconded the
motion, which was unanimously adopted.
Dennis Goehring discussed the pending negotiations between JAC
Development Corporation and Bob Spearman for a possible purchase
of a portion of Spearman's acreage fronting on Highway 6 in the
proposed industrial development park. Jose Arguello is the
principal behind JAC Development.
There was a general discussion by the Board of the nature of this
transaction, and the fact that it was an unexpected development.
Skip Porter indicated that no arrangements should be approved,
and that the foundation should take the position of non - involvement
as to its acreage until the terms of the arrangement and the quali-
fications of the prospective purchaser to carry forth our proposals
were ultimately placed in a formal written document to protect the
City and the foundation. There was a general discussion by the
Board of the terms of such an agreement and what should be expected
of the developer. It was concluded that we should expect full
disclosure of the entire transaction, and that the foundation should
remove itself from any involvement if our original expectations
toward development of the property are not met.
By consensus Dennis Goehring and Lowell Denton were commissioned to
further the negotiations toward a formal arrangement and to report
on progress at the following meeting.
Dennis Goehring related the substance of his conference with Eric
Hilton concerning the possibility of a golf course with a long term
lease for country club or other facilities within the industrial
park. The objective would be to create a nucleus of activity as well
as accommodations for visitors to the site. There was a general
discussion concerning this matter and the possible involvement of
other entities which might be interested in developing facilities
on the site.
There being no further business before the meeting, upon motion and
second the meeting was adjourned.
The foregoing minutes of the corporation are true and correct, and
were approved by the Board at its subsequent meeting on
1982.

The accompanying statement of cash receipts and disbursements of the
College Station Industrial Development Foundation for the ten months ended
April 30, 1982 has been compiled by us.
A compilation is limited to presenting in the form of financial state-
ments information that is the representation of management. We have not
audited or reviewed the accompanying financial statement and, accordingly,
do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on it.
The Company's policy is to prepare its financial statements on the
basis of cash receipts and disbursements; consequently, certain revenue
and the related assets are recognized when received rather than when
earned, and certain expenses are recognized when paid rather than when
the obligation is incurred. Accordingly, the accompanying financial state-
ments are not intended to present financial position and results of opera-
tions in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

that planning objective. Copies of contract documents gerrc«:in to
that relationship are attached hereto as Exhibit F. Robert F.

/ r (to be written)
Purpose of Agreement
The parties acknowledge that many decisions must be made
in the future as the planning and development of the entire
property continues. However, it is the parties collective
intention to set forth in a legally and judicially enforceable
form their expectations, obligations and rights with respect - to
such development to the extent possible. Interpretation of this
agreement, judicially or by arbitration as further provided
herein, or as provided by statute in case law in the State of
Texas, shall be controlled where ambiguities or disputes are
found to exist by the following objectives:
(1) The City of College Station seeks hereby to
liquidate surplus lands in the most economically
�Qfl advantageous manner to the general public, both as to
the price ultimately to be received for same, and the
control over future uses deemed not desirable for the
community as a whole. This objective is deemed
consistent with the City's original purpose in
5 V acquiring its portion of the property, as set forth in
the ordinance attached hereto as Exhibit G.
d (2) The parties plan to develop and subdivide
�(p the entire property as a planned unit.
(3) The parties have obtained the property for a
favorable per acre cost, and intend to reflect that
favorable cost in the density of development, balancing
the need for profitability with a natural and pleasant
environment, providing suitable open space and
buffering of uses to secure compatibility and 6-esthetic
quality. It is acknowledged that the City will absorb
a somewhat greater portion of the cost of reduced
density by virtue of its ultimate ownership and
maintenance and park areas, a golf course, and other
recreational facilities.
(4) The property shall be restricted and
controlled as to use in a manner consistent with the
plan for development as ultimately adopted and approved
by both parties, as provided herein. No property
shall be sold or conveyed, nor shall any contract for
same be made prior to the imposition of agreed
Z-
restrictions on the entire property.
(5) (remainder to be written)
CITY /CSIDF RELATIONSHIP
The City of College Station hereby designates the CSIDF
as its representative for the marketing of surplus property owned
by the City and constituting a portion of the 1265 acres
presently owned by the City of College Station as recited herein.
In accordance with Ordinance attached hereto as
Exhibit G, the City will reserve from development approximately
acres which shall be used for public purposes henceforth,
and which shall include park areas, a golf course, municipal
buildings, and utility facilities. After adoption of the final
master plan,and as part of the restrictions imposed on the parcel
prior to any sale or hypothecation of any part thereof, the City
shall survey such lands to be reserved, and the restrictions
originally imposed on the entire parcel shall set forth such
reservations.
The City of College Station will provide reasonable and
necessary funding, within lawful budget restraints, to the CSIDF
to enable it to carry out the provisions of this agreement.

As you know, I serve on the Board of the Chamber of Commerce and was present at the
meeting Tuesday, when it was decided not to accept fundinq from any individual
foundation. I would like to share some o my personal views with you and ask that
you share your personal ideas with me so I can do a better job of representing you
in the future.
The Chamber Board endorsed my general concept Tuesday to streamline and re- define
the Chamber's role in industrial development and its stated policy on recruiting.
In general the concept would be for the Chamber to support Brazos County
specifically and not any one foundation to the exclusion of the others. The
Chamber executive director would not go industrial foundation meetin s as in
t e past and wou not 'serve to the Brazos County Industrial Foundation
any longer nor do any of their "Contractual Work ".
z
A copy of the previously adopted Chamber of Commerce Industrial Development policy
is enclosed for you to review. Please read the document and let me know if the
policy should be completely disregarded and if so, specifically what formal policy
would you recommend for the Chamber to adopt? If you feel that a large portion of
the old policy is acceptable, and can be amended please let me have your specific
suggestions.
I believe that the Chamber should continue to provide all individual and business
prospects with as much information as possible (approved pamphlets, films, etc.)
to sell Brazos County as a whole, b t the Chamber role recruiting sh 4J J
d to more than providing in ustrial prospects with a "points -of- interest"
map designating the location o a Chamber mem er in us ria sites and foundations
in the community along with the name, address and phone number of their respective
offices and Chief Exectuve Officers. Another approach would be for the Chamber to
have a professional brochure prepared annually identifying the previously mentioned
information about Chamber industrial members along with a statement of policy
relating to the stated goals of each foundation. For instance the stated goals
of College Station might be for businesses interested in high technology and
research and the goals for Bryan might include a description or light manufacturing.
In this regard, Chamber personnel would be instructed to give the prospects the
same approved information and the actual selling of real estate in industrial parks
would be handled by each individual foundation. The questions of follow up,

equal basis. The Chamber executive will have discretion to use members of
the team in a manner consistent with the interests of the prospect.
/5• When a decision to locate in Brazos County has been made by
an indust h al prospect, information on the prospect will be released to all
parties that have a direct interest in this information (e.g., banks, real
estate firms, etc.) at the same time and in the same format.

personal contact and confidentiality requests might be supervised by the past
presidents committee. If a business prospect asks to meet locally with an industrial
information team relating to municipal services, utilities and Texas A &M University
etc., the Chamber staff would call only the Executive officers of the local public
service organizations including the City Managers and members of their staff as
well as the Chancellor of the University or his designee as requested by the client.
In essence, the Chamber role would be to support Brazos County, free enterprise and
competition in our business community which I think is a healthy position. Please
take time to let me have specific recommendations; reduce them to writing, put your
name on it and return it to me by 4 PM Monday. If we do not respond.to the Chamber
request for formal recommendations now, then we really do not have any right to
complain at a later date I will present your suggestions to the Chamber Executive
Committee meeting on Tuesday at 6:45 AM.. Thanks for your support and participation.

Dear Steve:
In recent months I have received many calls at the
bank in relation to Chamber concerns and needless to say;
the number of calls have accelerated since the Chamber Board
meetinn lac± .i1eek In order to get back to imiy'pr'imary work at
the bank, I finally dictated a letter outlining my position on
the primary concern, industrial development, and ask that my'
secretary simply give these - people a copy - of my - w ritten'position
and for them to respond in a like manner. I� promised these
people that their ideas and concerns would be presented to the
Chamber.

JAMES E. SCAMARDO
President
During the last week, I recieved three formal responses (copies
attached) and there have been eight people choosing to respond on
an informal basis. Of the eight informal responses, two believe
that the solution to Chamber problems would be separate Chambers
of Commerce. Six support a single Chamber resolving existing
concerns and specifically endorse revision of the Chamber
Industrial Program as outlined in my'letter dated August 13, 1982,
(copies attached). People have also expressed other areas of
concern in addition to the industrial development - process and feel
they - should also be addressed frankly. The additional concerns
mentioned are:
1. preceived staff leadership.
2. A long range goal - one visable central office at a location
acceptable to everyone that - presents the proper image for the
business community.
3. formal operating'policies,'procedures, and management charts
4. Chamber dues - an increase
If additional suggestions are received, I will provide them to you
and I ask that the information submitted be made available to the
appropriate committee.
Yours truly;
im E. Scamardo

Dear Jim,
Pursuant to your request,,I have carefully studied the
information forwarded to me and considered the matter at
length. _I realize the tenderness of the situation and for
that reason I request that this letter be considered fo�
your eyes only and as a conversation between friends.
It is my opinion that our Chamber of Commerce has no
single problem. As you know, the issues are complex and
industrial development is only one of the many issues.
;Apparently the decision making process of the B -CS Chamber
of Commerce is being questioned and, by some, criticized.
However, I feel that taking a negative attitude will
further deteriorate the obviously mixed loyalities that
already exist.
Overall, I don't think a new Industrial Development
policy will stop the talk of forming a College Station
Chamber of Commerce. In fact nothing will stop all of
the talk; it's been going on for years now. There is
credence in both sides of the story.
Jim, maybe it is time to consider forming a separate
Chamber of Commerce in College Station. Growth and community
goals may indicate that need. But this is a decision that
many individuals must help make. I honestly believe that
the Executive Committee must, above all, (1) keep an open
mind and (2) strive to keep the peace between our communities.
If the decision is made to split the Chamber, then the
announcement should be made jointly and with no hard feelings.
A clean cut heals much faster, as was the fact when College
Station elected to provide its own utilities.
In retrospect, I honestly have mixed emotions. I will
support a College Station Chamber of Commerce. I will con -
tinue to support the B -CS Chamber of Commerce.
I sincerely appreciate the opportunity to voice my
I

Policies on Industrial Development
It shall be the objective of the Bryan- College Station Chamber of Commerce to assist
industrial firms interested in location in Brazos County. In doing so, it will
cooperate with member industrial foundations in the county who have an interest in
attracting industry.
in pursuing itc industrial development ohiectives, the Bryan- College Station
Chamber of Commerce shall be guided by the following policies:
1. The Chamber will designate an employee perceived to be completely neutral
to both Bryan and College Station who shall be responsible for directing and manag-
ing the Chamber's industrial development activities.
2. The Chamber will promote the two cities and county as a potential industrial
site and will be responsible for maintaining information in an approved and attractive
format that will be of interest and usefullness to industrial prospects. Approved
information is to be provided all industrial prospects and will include a brochure
containing a "location points of interest map" identifying the sites of member
foundations and privately owned and established member parks and their addresses. The
name of their chief executive officer, phone number and a brief description of the
stated goals of each will also be included in the brochure. This information will be made
available at all Chamber locations The Chamber will attempt to respond to all
reasonable requests for information in a timely fashion.
3. The responsibility for recruiting and entertaining industrial prospects
and marketing specific industrial sites will reside with the various industrial
foundations in the county and /or the owners of the property in which a prospect
has an interest.
4. The Chamber will compile a list of all industrial prosepcts with whom it
has contact and provide this information to interested chamber members in weekly
reports that are made available to all parties at the same time. Information about
a prospect will be coded to protect confidentiality, if requested. All confidential-
ity requests will be reviewed monthly and given final approval by the Past Presidents'
Committee. The Past Presidents' Committee will also monitor and log proper follow -up
procedures in order to insure that the prospect receives all the information needed
to make a business decision about our community,
5. No chamber employee will serve on the board, be an officer, or be employeed
by an industrial foundation in Brazos County or have any financial interest in any
industrial real estate or firm that deals in real estate.

6. If a business prospect asks to meet locally with an industrial information
team, the Chamber would arrange a meeting and notify:
1. Both Bryan and College Station City Managers and the staff
they may require.
2. Executive Officers of all Industrial Foundations-
3. County Judge or his employee appointee
4. Texas A &M University Chancellor or his appointee.
5. Executive Officers of Utility company or their employee appointee
6. If representatives from the private business community are
requested by the client, the staff may invite members of the

7. Additions deemed necessary by the client to the above may be
approved by the executive officers of the Industrial Foundations
by telephone.
In essence, the Chamber role would be to support Brazos County, free
enterprise and competition in our business community.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Paul Nealis. Bryan Development Foundation (BDF)
Johnny Lampo, Brazos County Industrial Foundation (BCIF)
= Dennis Goehring, College t Lion Industrial Development
SUBJECT: Committee to Recommend Wa s to F'
V/
Foundation (CSIDF)
Inance Industrial Development Activities
Each of you has received a letter from Steve Arden, President of the
Bryan Station Chamber of Commerce, appointing you to a committee
to "consider and recommend how the Chamber is to finance its industrial
effort and what the Chamber's relationship should be to county indus-
trial organizations."
I will be out of town until 03 May, but will be calling you after
that date to
set up a time for the committee to meet. In prepara-
tion for that meeting, I will
attempt to identify the issues that
we need to deal with.
Und the n w olicies on industrial development ado
adopted �Y the
Chamber, its primary role will be to work with the various indus-
trial foundations
representing the political subdivisions in the
county in attracting industry to this area. The basic questions,
then, are:
1) What services should the Chamber of Commerce
provide to facilitate the industrial development effort?
2) How
should the costs of providing these services
be financed?
In the past, as you know, the Brazos County Industrial Foundation (BCIF)
has essentially underwritten the Chamber's industrial development
program by an annual contribution of $30,000 $40,000. There has been
some criticism of this arrangement on two grounds:
1) If the Chamber is to provide services to all of
the industrial foundations, each should share the costs.
2) An arrangement whereby funding is coming from only
one source creates the possibility of a "favored relationship"
or at least the appearance of one.
Paul Neal is
Johnny Lampo
Dennis Goehring

The alternatives, then, would appear to be:
1) Continue the present arrangement in which BCIF
underwrites the costs of industrial development activities
by the Chamber.
2) Spread the costs of industrial development
equally or proportionately among the three industrial
foundations.
3) Spread the costs of industrial development to
all Chamber members via an increase in Chamber dues.
I'll look forward to discussing these issues with you.
Sincerely,
William V. Muse

BRYAN - COLLEGE STATION CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Policies on Industrial Development
It shall be the objective of the Bryan- College Station Chamber of
Commerce to develop programs to assist industrial firms interested in locating
in Brazos County. In doing so, it will cooperate with industrial foundations !�
or other organizations representing the political subdivisions in the county �l
who have an interest in attracting industry.
In pursuing its industrial development objectives, the Bryan - College
Station Chamber of Commerce shall be guided by the following policies:
1. The Chamber will designate one employee who shall be responsible
for directing and managing the industrial development program. A
2. The Chamber will be responsible for promotion of the two cities
and county as a potential industrial site and will be responsible for maintaining
information in attractive formats that will be of interest and usefulness to
industrial prospects. The Chamber will attempt to respond to all reasonable
requests for information in a timely fashion.
3. The Chamber will maintain a central file on all industrial
prospects. This file will contain all information provided by or collected
about the prospect and will be the exclusive property of the Chamber executive
responsible for industrial development. Release of information in this file will
be governed by the following procedures:
a) Information in a prospect's file will be released in a manner
consistent with the requests for confidentiality by the client and /or when the
prospect is interested in active consideration of the community and.will be
provided to all units representing political subdivisions (e.g., Brazos County
Industrial Foundation, College Station Industrial Development Foundation, etc.)
on an equal basis -i.e., at the same time and in the same form.
b) It is expected that most industrial prospects will have their
initial contact with the Chamber of Commerce. Where the initial contact is
made by or with a unit of a political subdivision (e.g., BCIF, CSIDF, etc.),
the unit involved will file information on this prospect with the Chamber of
Commerce executive responsible for industrial development. This prospect will
remain an "exclusive client" of the unit involved and the file will not be /
shared with other units until the initiating unit agrees or until directed b
the Vice President of the Industrial Division of the Chamber.
4. An Industrial Development Team, approved by the Chamber
Executive Committee, will be appointed to assist the Chamber executive
responsible for industrial development. Whatever information is appropriate
to be shared about a prospect will be shared with members of the team on an
equal basis. The Chamber executive will have discretion to use members of
the team in a manner consistent with the interests of the prospect.
5. When a decision to locate in Brazos County has been made by
an industrial prospect, information on the prospect will be released to all
parties that have a direct interest in this information. (e.g., banks, real
estate firms, etc.) at the same time and in the same format.
6. Responsibility for monitoring compliance with these policies
will rest with the Vice President of the Industrial Division of the Bryan -
College Station Chamber of Commerce.

Also present: Stan Madden, Marketing TAMU; Randall Pritchard,
JAC Developers; Al Mayo, City Planner, Elrey Ash, Director
of Capital Improvement for City; A.E. VanDever, Asst. City
Manager, Gene Black, SBA; Alice Fleetwood, secretary; Jose
Arguello, JAC Developers.
The minutes were read and approved by the Board.
The financial statment was reviewed and approved.
Dennis Goehring reported that the park is in contact with the Jack
Nicklaus Corporation. They are coming to College Station to
view 600 acres of the park Thursday, August 26th. D. Goehring
arranged, with Young Brothers and A.P. Boyd, a helicopter so the
group can receive an impressive aerial viewing of the park. On
the 600 acres the Nicklaus Corp. is discussing a PGA Golf Course,
Country Club and Hotel. The Nicklaus Corp. was directed to us
through conversations with Jackie Sherrill and Charles Thornton.
It is difficult to address pricing at this early stage, until
specific facts concerning location are discussed.
Lowell Denton said he is still talking to Tom Gienschlag on the
agreement in principle but nothing has been tied down to date.
Market Report by Stan Madden reported there are 22 parks complimented
by universities around the country with concentration in the
Sun Belt region. There are 5 areas which are most comparable to
ours and suggested D. Goehring should visit 3 of the parks. Jim
Scamardo motioned for approval of funds for D. Goehring to visit
3 locations and motion was seconded by D. Hervey and approved.
Madden also has met with the Woodlands which have been very open
and extremely cooperative. A trip for the next week is planned
to visit Los Colinas with D. Goerhing, City Officials and Randall
Pritchard. D. Goerhing asked for a volunteer from the Board to
accompany the group.
Dennis Goehring has been invited to speak to the Texas A &M Industrial
Park Board. D. Goehring and S. Madden feel it is an unique
opportunity to become part of the decision making process of the
TAMU Board. It will be advantageous to both groups to work to-
gether on the development of both parks. Dennis Goehring asked
for approval of funds to put together some graphics to
the need for a positive relationship, by illustrating aspects of
a working and divided relationship of other city /university parks.
The Board approved funds for up to $1000.00 for the presentation.
An Aerial photograph will be taken and presented which shows the
dynamics and the viability of the park.
TCB is still in drafting stage. After meeting with J. Nicklaus Corp.
more specifics will be included.
Dennis Goehring asked the recording secretary to read J. Scamardo's
letter concerning the Chamber of Commerce which was sent to all
members. The Board discussed J. Scamardo's letter and agreed
upon the (1) concept proposed in the letter, (2) supporting a
unified chamber and (3) remaining a member of the B -CS Chamber.
A motion to accept the 3 principles was approved with one absention.
The Board also decided Pat Mann should no longer attend CSIDF
meeting nor should Dennis Goehring attend their meetings.
Gene Black, SBA, spoke to the Board about the need of business to have
available long term financing and proposed the operation of a
Certified Development Company. The funds for financing would be
divided 50o from local banks with a floating rate based on prime,
40% from the SBA based on the Treasury Bill rate plus 1 1 /8o and
the remaining 10% from the private business. The terms of the
loans can be separate but has to be a 10 year or longer contract
which is required by the Certified Development Company. There
is a scheduled training session in New Orleans on November 3 -5th
on the operation of a Certified Development Company. It was
suggested that a member from the Financial Corporation attend. The
Financial Corp. should have the application completed by 9/30.
There being no further business before the meeting, upon motion and
second the meeting was adjourned.
The foregoing minutes of the corporation are true and correct, and
were approved by the Board at is subsequent meeting on September
16, 1982.

Dennis H. Goehring introduced Chris Zoller, V- President of Acquistions
for the Pierce Corp. of Tennessee. Chris confirmed the agreement in
concept to the College Station Development Park site as a future home
for a Nicklaus community. He gave background information on the Pierce
Corporation who is in a joint venture with Golden Bear which is owned
by Jack Nicklaus. He thanked everyone for their interest and enthusiam
and complimented the City for obtaining the finest piece of real estate
in Brazos County.
The Nicklaus Corp is interested in purchasing 600 acres which would in-
clude the flood plain all within the City's boundaries. The project
would included a PGA golf course, club house and Destination Resort.
Destination Resort is a new concept where a business group could have
a controlled and isolated environment with all the luxuries of a major
hotel. Also inclded would be single family home and villa lots on and
off of the golf course. The entrance from the county road is fine,
entry way from Hwy 6 is not necessary.
The golf course will be the first project constructed and Tee Time will
be approximately 2 years. J. Nicklaus will make the announcement to
the public, hopefully on a Friday before an A &M home game. The date
will be announced when all schedules can be coordinated.
The legal and financial aspects are presently being worked out through
L. Denton and A. VanDever. Chris stated his attorney is preparing
a memorandum of understanding.
Chris also expressed concern for any promises the City Council had made
to the city and encourages any suggestions from the City and Development
Board. He feels the City and other groups involved have the same phil-
osphy concerning the needs and aspirations of the park.
J. Scamardo motioned for approval of the concept for the sale of
land to Golden Bear for the purpose of the proposed Nicklaus
Community, it was seconded and Board approved.
There being no further business before the meeting, upon motion and
second the meeting was adjourned.

Dennis H. Goehring called the meeting to order and introduced Rick
Hunsicker from Westinghouse as a new member of the Board. Also
introduced other guests from the CS Financial Corp.
The minutes were read and approved by the Board.
The financial statement was reviewed and approved by the Board.
A Nicklaus update by D.H. Goehring stated that in a meeting last week
with C. Perry and H. Pierce, the group is still interested in the
land to build a 7 million dollar golf course and clubhouse. The
Nicklaus group stated however, they were not interested in building
a center and motel complex. Thev are interested in
developing golf villas styled similar to those at Columbia Lakes
which would become rental units for specific functions. The con-
vention center and motel /hotel complex would be directed to the
JAC group if economically feasible and if said project could be
integrated and coordinated with the overall golf course thrust and
park plans. The Nicklaus group stated that is would be a prototype
facility meaning that the success of this venture would be the step-
ping stone for other golf course facilities in other university
communities throughout the sunbelt region. They would envision a
PGA tournament on an annual basis plus the integration of the Uni-
versity men and women golf teams along with hosting the SWC tourna-
ments. Discussion also centered aroung the subject of "prestige
golf course" and its overall effect on our original objective.
Al Mayo pointed out the Nicklaus group indicated membership
would range around $10,000. to $15,000. which voiced some con-
cern as to the local market place accomondating such high fees.
Goehring further stated a market study on the part of the Nicklaus
organization is to be conducted to determine the local market and
the former student participation. Discussion also centered around
our original plans and objectives for the park and the possibility
of other alternatives. Randall Pritchard stated the Vince Kickerillo
and Walter Mischer have indicated an interest in a joint venture
with the JAC group plus the possibility of bidding on the golf course
proposal. Goehring confirmed that in two previous meetings with
Kickerillo he had expressed an interest in the project if the Nicklaus
group did not respond in a positive manner. Discussion closed with
a motion by Steve Baker and second by J. Scamardo that the foundation
actively seek other proposals, this motion carried.
Stan Madden reported that the marketing study is near completion and
should be ready on Monday of next week. They have tried to integrate
the proposals which have initially been discussed by the Board into
the market study.
Tom Auginbaugh discussed the SBA /CS Financial Corporation packet. He
requests that all members complete the required application and re-
sume if they have not already done so and return to Dennis Goehring.
D.H. Goehring announced that Gerry Land is no longer with RepublicBank.
Churchill Jones, Chairman, has asked to replace G. Land. J. Scamardo
motioned, it was seconded and all approved.
J. Scamardo resigned because of his appointment as President of the
Chamber of Commerce. He requested Carl Terna be elected as a voting
director and Scamardo be invited as Chamber President Ex- Eficio
member of the Development Foundation. The Board approved both re-
quests and congratulated J. Scamardo on his new position.
R. Hunsicker gave a progress report on the Westinghouse plant. There
will be 32 people arriving from Baltimore, six being former A &M
students and additional employees will be hired each month to attain
a goal of 450 -500 over a two year period. The Hi -Tech plant will
place its emphasis -on digital defense equipment.
Larry Burnside provided visual aid for the understanding of the different
aspects of the TX Industrial Development Council. He feels that the
ultimate goals are the same between his and our foundation and that
we should work together to achieve these goals.
Scarmardo reported that Harold Boedecker, Trustee bid on the 750.55
acreage, the Cavitt estate property, which was advertised in the
newspaper. He reported he personally has an interest in the earnest
money contract and there are presently no development plans for the
property.
D.H. Goehring reported Dr. Hugh Wilson of the Floral Center on campus
feels there may be an endangered species, the Navasota Ladies
Dress, located at the park. L. Denton will review the legal aspects
and the government regulation concerning an endangered species.
There being no further business before the meeting, upon motion, second
and approval the meeting was adjourned.

BY
ANDREW L. WILLIAMS, JR., P.E.
Turner, Collie & Braden, Inc.
Houston, Texas
Industrial development and ex-
pansion in Texas is increasing
with 288 new plants in 1981, a 63
percent increase over the 1976
total of 177, with 393 existing com-
panies expanding their operations
during 1981.
Why are new industries moving
to East Texas, an area which in-
cludes only 20 percent of the total
Texas land mass, but 54 percent of
the State's population?
The physical evidence confirm-
ed by an inventory of natural
resources is staggering. The East
Texas Field, the largest oil produc-
ing field on the North American
continent since its discovery in
1930, is also one of the state's
fastest growing industrial areas.
East Texas hosts the majority of
Texas' 59 refining plants, produc-
ing 5.3 million barrels per day of
crude oil - 28.5 percent of the na-
tional total.
The Texas chemical industry
contributes more to the state's
economy than any other class of
manufacturing. More than two -
thirds of the products of the
chemical industry of
petrochemicals. Texas' long -time
position as the nation's leading oil
and gas producing state provides
abundant feedstocks.
Lignite, iron ore, clay, salt,
sulphur, and lime are other mineral
resources found in abundance. Ad-
ditional lignite - fueled electrical
power generation plants, located
adjacent to the lignite mines, are
anticipated in many East Texas
communities.
East Texas has a forested area
almost equal to the combined
forest areas of the New England
states, about 16 million acres.
Nearly all of Texas' commercial
timber comes from this area which
extends over all or part of 43 coun-
ties, providing every county in East
Texas with a market for pulpwood.
Annual tree growth in the principal
forest area of East Texas exceeds
yearly harvest by 21.4 percent.
Agribusiness, the combined
phases of food, fiber and forest
production, processing, transpor-
ting, and marketing, is Texas'
leading industry. East Texas'
average annual rainfall of 40 in-
ches supports abundant acreage
of livestock, dairy farms, crops,
fruits and nuts, and ensures a
steady supply of water in streams,
lakes, and reservoirs, many of
which are a source of power for in-
dustry.
This rich endowment of natural
resources co- exists with an abun-
dance of resources of another
nature - industrial research
resources - found in businesses,
foundations, industries, colleges,
universities, medical facilities, and
Federal, state, and local govern-
mental agencies. Easily accessed
stores of information selected to
aid in choosing industrial sites in
East Texas are provided in several
levels of detail.
Within the next few years
another research resource facility
will be constructed in the College
Station Industrial Park, sponsored
by the College Station Industrial
Foundation. The Park will attract
high technology and research
development to an area of ac-
celerating technological growth in
East Texas.
In the March 1982 Report, the
Texas 2000 Commission says that
''technological advances will
stimulate both expansion and
diversification; research and
development will thus be the key
to economic strength and develop-
ment."
Research aids effective plann-
ing for orderly change. This
change is necessary because of
the vigorous technological growth
experienced in East Texas.
Today's businessman faces an in-
creasing need to include research
as a major component of the
strategy he follows in his daily per-
formance in the marketplace.
Businessmen, along with other
professionals engaged in the
whole realm of human activities,
regularly perform both planned
and unplanned research functions
in the practice of their professions.
Business enterprises with
research - oriented managers enjoy
well -known success.
Research and development ac-
tivities spring from the inven-
tiveness and enthusiasm of East
Texans. The expanding scope and
intensity of research activities
continue to accelerate as the
demands increase on East Texas
resources. These activities em-
brace the life, earth, space, and
physical sciences as well as
engineering and technology.
Research varies from the perfor-
mance of fundamental knowledge -
revealing studies, to the develop-
ment of applied programs directed
toward market research of con-
sumer needs, new products, im-
proved processes, and better
management of resources.
Through research, governmental
and economic pressures provide
further incentives to find better
ways to work and play.
Information of research ac-
tivities can be obtained
through the University of
Texas Bureau of Business
Research and its publication,

related information.
The Texas Natural Resource In.
formation System (TNRIS)
Newsletter of July 1977 describes
the socio- economic data holdings
including the 1977 Dunn &
Bradstreet file of Texas Business
firms listing more than 240,000
businesses. Included in the file are
such data items as business
name; street and mailing address;
city, state, and zip code; telephone
number; principal officer and title;
line of business; year started;
Dunn & Bradstreet credit rating; in-
dicators on business size; stan-
dard industrial classification (SIC)
in numbers; and indication of
whether the business is a head-
quarters or a branch location of a
multi -unit organization.
In addition, the Houston
Chamber of Commerce publica-
tion entitled HOUSTON FACTS '81
listing basic data through January
1, 1981, includes a section entitled
"Research and Development"
quoted as follows: "Research and
development in engineering ac-
tivities have proliferated in
Houston during the 1970's with a
number of major companies
establishing local operations to
capitalize on the growing nucleus
of energy, space, and medical
technology available here. In addi-
tion to research at Johnson Space
Center, the Texas Medical Center
and area universities, more than 80
research firms maintain research
facilities here. The number of life,
earth, and physical scientists in
the Houston SMSA has risen to
11,800, or 104 percent more than in
1970, , when a National Science
Foundation survey ranked
Houston ninth, nationally. The
31,500 technical engineers in the
Houston SMSA represent a gain of
75 percent since 1970." The former
1985 projections have been
cancelled as current figures have
exceeded the projections.
The Houston Chamber of Com-
merce publication entitled AT
WORK, (July 1978) states, "Deci-
sion making is based on facts, and
facts for much decision making af-
fecting the Houston area are pro-
vided by the Houston Chamber of
Commerce Research Committee
and Research Division. Houston
area growth documented by
researchers has far - reaching im-
pact upon immediate and long -
range plans of business, industry,
government, education, institu-
tions, and individuals. The
Research Committee and Division
serve these needs with economic
and demographic data about the
entire region (17 counties)."
Another article entitled "Future
Studies Gives Lead -Time to Plan
for Region's Future," discusses
work of the Future Studies Com-
mittee, the first of its kind in the
nation and a model for other
chambers of commerce setting up
long -range planning groups. The
committee brings together a group
of urban specialists and experts
plotting trends in the Houston
region.
The article states, "Their mis.
sion is to identify significant
trends and indicate possible im-
pacts - favorable or unfavorable on
the Houston region in the future.
Their efforts are designed to per-
mit effective planning for orderly
change to enhance the standard of
living and the quality of life in this
area.
In a region of such rapid growth
and change, problems and op-
portunities must be identified far
enough in advance to permit
careful planning for the future."

to assist industrial firms interested in locating in Brazos County. In doing so,
it will cooperate with the organizations and individuals in the county who have an
interest in attracting industry.
In pursuing its industrial development objectives, the Bryan - College Sta-
tion Chamber of Commerce shall be guided by the following policies:
1) The Chamber will appoint a Vice President who shall be responsible for
overseeing the Chamber's industrial development program. A Chamber staff member
will be designated to provide support services to the Industrial Division an
employee in eacn oLlice will be responsible for responding to inquiries from and
maintaining information on industrial prospects.
2) The Chamber will promote the two cities and county as a potential
industrial site and will be responsible for maintaining information in attractive
formats that will be of interest and usefulness to industrial prospects. The infor-
mation-to be provided to industrial prospects will be approved by the Chamber Board
and will include a brochure containing a map identifying the sites of industrial parks
owned by public entities or foundations. The foundations featured in the brochure
are expected to share the cost of printing and maintaining this material. In addi-
tion to the industrial sites identified, the brochure would also include the name,
address, phone number, and a brief description of each foundation. This information
will be provided to all industrial prospects and will be available at all Chamber
locations. A file of privately -owned industrial real estate will be maintained in
each Chamber office and will be available to industrial prospects. The responsibi-
lity of reproducing this information and maintaining it at the Chamber offices will
reside with the owners of the real estate. The Chamber will attempt to respond to
all reasonable requests for information in a timely fashion.
3) The responsibility for recruiting and entertaining industrial prospects
and marketing specific industrial sites will reside with the various industrial
foundations in the county and /or the owners of property in which a prospect has an
interest.
4) The Chamber will compile a list of all industrial prospects with whom
it has contact and provide this information to interested Chamber members in a weekly
report that is made available to all parties at the same time. Information about a
prospect will be coded to protect his confidentiality, if requested. All confiden-
tiality requests will be reviewed monthly by a committee comprised of a board member,
other than the president or paid executive, of each participating foundation, such
member to be appointed by the foundation he represents. This committee will monitor
and approve procedures in order to insure that the prospect receives all information
needed to make a business decision about our community.
S) No Chamber employee will serve on the board or be employed by an indus-
trial foundation in Brazos County or have any financial interest in any industrial
real estate or firm that deals in real estate.
6) If requested to do so, the Chamber staff member responsible for indus-
trial development will arrange meetings with local parties identified by the prospects.
Where duplicate services are available in the community, information about all sources
of these services will be provided.
MINUTES OF THE MONTHLY MEETING OF THE COLLEGE STATION INDUSTRIAL
DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATION HELD SEPTEMBER 16, 1982, AT THE COLLEGE
STATION COMMUNITY CENTER.

Others present: N. Bardell, City Mgr.; Pat Mann, Chamber of Commerce;
Stan Madden, Mkt. Dept. TAvIU; Randall Pritchard, JAC Developers;
A.E. VanDever, Asst. City Mgr.; Elrey Ash, Dir. Capital Improvements;
Al Mayo, City Planner; Alice Fleetwood, Recording Secretary.
A motion was presented by P. Hobson to dispense with the reading of
both minutes which were issued, it was seconded and approved by
the Board.
The financial statement was approved by the Board. The motion was
made by D.A. Anderson and seconded by J. Scamardo.
Stan Madden spoke to the Board about the progress in the research
study. City parks located near universities will draw from
the school the necessary man -power from all graduating classes.
A report was also made by S. Madden and A. Mayo about the TAMU Research_
and Development Park meeting held September 10th. A location has
not yet been decided but there is a strong desire to locate as
near the university as possible. There is unaminity among the
group towards a total research park and the group does.not want
to compete with the local industry. They will be very restrictive
as to the which companies are allowed in the park as well as main-
taining architectural control.
Dennis Goehring reported that the Nicklaus Corp.'s planners will be
in next week. The Nicklaus Corp. in conjunction with Harold
Pierce will submit a proposal and will bid on the land. This is
not a simple real estate transaction but a complex proposal which
will consist of selling 400 acres for a set price .and the remaininc,
200 will be leased. A letter of credit will also be issued to the
city for 1 million dollars on the condition that a golf course,
country club and hotel will be completed. The proposed agreement
on the leased acres is that the city will receive a percent of
the gross sales which is to the advantage of both parties.
North Bardell stated a 24" line to Green's Praire Road which pumps
5,000,000 gallons a day will be initially constructed. This
would be approximately midpoint and a 18" line from Green's
Praire Road to the east will follow.
D.H. Goehring and N. Bardell attended the Industrial Development
Conference in San Antonio and expressed their enthusiam about
the potential of College Station. Everyone feels that College
Station has all the factors necessary for a successful research
park. It is also felt by others that we are months ahead of other
areas around the state.
Concern was expressed that one -half of the City's acreage will be sold
to the Nicklaus Community and. citizens may feel that no industry
was brought into this area. The JAC agreement that the city will
trade some acreage is still in effect so a Hi -Tech Park is proposed
as initially stated.
J. Scamardo suggested that the Council be invited to attend the monthly
meetings. The Board approved and will ask one council member to
attend each meeting, others will be asked if G. Halter and T. Jones
are not planning to attend the meeting.
There being no further business before the meeting, upon motion and
second the meeting was adjourned.

Mr. Dennis Goehring
College Station Industrial Development Foundation

College Station, TX 77840
Dear Dennis:
Forgive me for taking so long in getting back to you. We are in
receipt of your letter of September 15, outlining the terms of
our agreement with the City of College Station to build a PGA
golf course, country club, three hundred unit hotel and conven-
tion center, and residential community on 600 acres of the
property owned by the city and designated for a planned research
and development park. As I described to the members of your
foundation, we are particularly interested in the section east of
the power line; what I would describe as the northern (or
north - eastern) part of the College Station - owned parcel. The
natural flood plain surrounded by several areas of high elevation
is ideal for our purpose. The terms you outlined appear to be
acceptable to Harold and me, and we have forwarded them to Mr.
Charles Perry, Vice Chairman and partner of Golden Bear, Inc. for
his perusal and comments.
Mr. Perry and several Associates will be in College Station on
Thursday, October 14, and wish to meet you at 2 :00 p.m. Harold
and /or myself will try to be there as well. Before that, I hope
to furnish you with financial references and capabilities of the
entity that will develop the project. We are pushing our
designers to complete the location of the golf course so that
they can coordinate the land plan with your architects and
planners.
I look forward to a quick return to Texas.
Sincerely,
Christopher P.

how to pay for the tremc us
amount of capital constrt._.ion
that will be required. One conser-
vative estimate places the cost of
repairing the nation's roads and
bridges at $31.7 billion a year for
the next ten years. Last year only
$19.2 billion was invested in road
and bridge work at all levels of
government. In other words, the
cure is likely to be as painful as the
disease. Not surprisingly, there is
heated debate over how to finance
the regeneration of America's
crumbling infrastructure.
One of the most instinctive re-
flexes of government at all levels,
but especially in Washington,
when confronted with a mammoth
problem of "crisis" proportions, is
to form a commission to do a
study. That may be an appropriate
first step in the case of infrastruc-
ture decay. There are a number of
serious proposals in Congress to
catalogue the nation's public
works, inventory them, and rank
the most acute deficiencies on a
national scale. The immediate goal
would be to bring some kind of
coherence to a tremendously frag-
mented problem. Public works
planning and construction now
takes place under the uncoordi-
nated authority of some 100 sepa-
rate federal agencies, 50 state gov-
ernments, 3042 counties, and
35,000 local governments.
No Federal Inventory
The federal government pro-
vides about half of the nation's
public works funds, but does so
"without taking an inventory of
the nation's public facilities and
without assessing the conditions of
those facilities," says TRW, Inc.,
economist Pat Choate, coauthor of
a book called America in Ruins.
A bill introduced in the waning
days of the 97th Congress that is
certain to be resurrected next
Congress would help fill the infor-
mation void. The legislation, spon-
sored by New York Democrat Sen.
Daniel Patrick Moynihan, would
do two things: first, inventory the
-existing public facilities by region,
state, and major metropolitan area
as well as by type of project; and
second, develop a ten -year invest-
ment plan to set federal priorities
for the repair, replacement, or ex-

pansion of specific public works
facilities. An important goal of the
Moynihan approach is to replace
Congress' perennial tendency to-
ward pork barrel politics where
public works are concerned with a
sound infrastructure improve-
ment policy.
The idea is not a new one. Back
in 1807, Congress directed the
Treasury Secretary to prepare a
similar plan for "objects of public
improvement [that] may require
and deserve the aid of govern-
ment." That led to the famous
"Report on Roads and Canals,"
which in turn led to the creation of
the U.S. Army Corps of Engi-
neers.
In the 1980s the enormous task
of reconnoitering the infrastruc-
ture problem and assessing what
needs to be done about it will be
the easy part. The thorny issue will
be figuring out how to pay for it.
According to one estimate, the
U.S. will be forced to rebuild its
infrastructure to the tune of $2.5
to $3 trillion during this decade.
That's a lot of zeroes. This year the
federal government spent a mere
$25 billion on public works. That
level was down 10% from the pre-
vious year. Together, all public
capital construction accounted for
only 1.7% of the gross national
product in 1980, compared with
4.1% in 1965. In other words,
we've been moving in the wrong
direction in public works spend-
ing. Not only has investment in
capital construction declined abso-
lutely, it has been sharply reduced
as a proportion of overall govern-
ment spending.
Yet, as long as President Reagan
sits in the White House, the
chances of an enormous increase
in public works spending —along
the lines of the Work Projects Ad-
ministration of the New Deal —as
some have advocated, are poor.
Besides, says economic consultant
Roger Vaughan, a huge spending
frenzy "would grossly inflate con-
struction costs, expose local gov-
ernments to massive fraud and
abuse, and lead to inhumane cuts
in other public services." Others,
meanwhile, from highway engi-
neers to wastewater treatment
plant managers, keep repeating
the message that the longer we
wait, the more infrastructure re-
pairs and replacement are going to
cost in the long run.
In fact, the economy is already

CS, A &M parks, not meant to compete
By FRITZ LANHAM
Staff Writer
The proposed College Station industrial park will
complement rather than compete with Texas
A &M's proposed research park, the head of the ci-
ty's industrial development foundation said Thurs-
day. .
Dennis Goehring told, members of the Texas
A &M Industrial Park Development Committee ;hat
firms wanting to buy rather than lease land, high
technology manufacturing firms, and companies
wanting to build corporate headquarters will be
able to locate in the College Station park.
In the 318 -acre Texas A &M park, tenants will
have to lease sites since the university cannot Bell
state land. The Texas A &M Board of Regents a!so
wants the university park limited to research opera-
tions.
Goehring, president of the College Station In-
dustrial Development Foundation, briefed
A &M park committee on the status of the College
Station park, which will be located on 2,300 -acre
site south of the city.
Current plans call for the park to include not only
industrial development but also a golf course,
recreational areas, a hotel and convention center,
and residential development, he said.
He said he expects work to begin on developing
the site by late spring.
Nearly 1,300 acres of the site is owned by the City
Of College Station. The remainder is owned by
private investors.
Among those on hand to hear the presentation
were Brazos County Judge R. J. "Dick"
Holmgreen, local Chamber of Commerce President
Steve Arden, and Johnny Lampo, president of the
Brazos County Industrial Foundation.
The A &M industrial park committee also met in
executive session to consider applications for the
572,000 -a -year post of park director.
Former Chancellor Frank Hubert, chairman of
the committee, said the group narrowed the list of
54 applicants down to 10.
He said that within the next few weeks he hop
the committee can present Chancellor Arthur
Hansen with a list of candidates to interview.

A&M eyes high -tech research center role
By TOM NELSON
Post F rter
C EGE STATION — The major problem
in development of high - technology industries in
Texas has been a lack of a dominant university
to act as a research center — as Stanford is to
Silicon Valley in California and the Massachu-
setts Institute of Technology is to Route 128.
State government has not provided leader-
ship. In North Carolina, Utah and Georgia, leg-
islatures have actively encouraged and partial-
ly financed the development of high -tech
indust'd parr wired into the brain trusts at
research- oriei;ted universities.
Texas A &M University — the Sun Belt's lead-
ing research institution in dollar volume and
personnel — has grabbed what its officials see
as an opportunity to fill the high -tech void.
Right now people and resources are in mo-'
tion to transform 393 acres from the school's
1,804 -acre main campus into the state's first
high hnology industrial research park.
F BLY NO OTHER public university has
received more attention from the nation's me-
dia this year than Texas A &M: Jackie Sherrill
signs on for a million dollars -plus. Dr. Arthur
G. Hansen is lured from Purdue University for
$135,000 a year and a $1 million home. Nobel
laureates and other internationally known re-
searchers actively recruited and promised sala-
ries and laboratories costing millions. A &M re-
searchers announce hydrogen can be extracted
from water, possibly cost - effective with hydro -
u -arbon energy sources.
Now a new adventure unfolds, a high -tech
research park that prompts Dr. W. Arthur
"Skip" Porter, director of engineering re-
search, to assert "We have the opportunity
(here to catch up with the future and not the
Xast."
"We have clearly demonstrated abilities at
Ufit," Porter says. "We are putting in place a
facility that allows industry to access us."
A &M IS USING AS a model the high -tech
industrial park at the University of Utah in Salt
Lake City, a decade -old, 320 -acre center that
now has 17 buildings accommodating 29 private
corporations, including the home of the Jarvik -7
artificial heart and other bioengineering indus-
tries that manufacture spare -parts artificial or-
gans. The Utah park employs 2,700 people.
Dr. Mark L. Money, director of the Utah
park, has visited Texas A &M as well as hosted
the A &M park committee. His evaluation of
A &M's ph s:-.: "I'm very impres�-_-d."
orter, vice - chairman of the park p.Anning
committee, acknowledges the A &M park will
not develop overnight and could take 30 years.
Historically, he says, construction begins on
three new industries a year.
Thirty industries in 10 years would neverth-
less be significant, Porter agrees.
AFTER A YEAR -LONG study, A &M System
regents last month dedicated 318 acres from the
west campus and an adjoining 75 acres recently
purchased to the high -tech park. The land is a
stone's throw from the commercial airport and
is bordered on three sides by highways.
A park director, an architecture firm to lay
out the acreage and legal covenents are the
next order of busines.
The development committee headed by
Chancellor Emeritus Frank W.R. Hubert last
week zeroed in on 10 of 54 nominations for the
park directorship. A director should be on
board early next year.
Porter says it probably will be September
1984 before the first companies begin
construction.
There have been several "prenatal" inquir-
ies, he says, including some notable firms inter-
ested in developing new businesses or forming
corporate research arms.
ADMISSION TO THE park probably will be
based on the value the firm brings to the A &M
research community and its graduate students,
Porter says. He acknowledges A &M already
has the people and the research facilities in
place to meet almost any corporate need.
A &M's high -tech strengths, according to Por-
ter, are its research and development work in
robotics and intelligent machinery, computers,
energy, electronics, human and animal medi-
cine and genetic engineering in agriculture.
More than $30 million in engineering re-
search was conducted at A &M the past year,
Porter saes, tops in the South and Southwest
and growing at 25 percent a year. The total
research budget for the university is ,585
million.
Hi: -tech parks near major research unive46:-
ties are not unique, Porter agrees, but right
now industry does its thing seperate from the
university.
WHAT WILL MAKE the A &M park unique.
Porter says, Is that interaction between the
park and the university will be mandated in the
lease agreements.
"I think it's going to work," says Porter.
wh:_se background in private industry includes
being a key member of reserch teams at Texas
Instruments that pioneered semiconductors and
computer chips.
"It's the type of move that can bring to
Texas A &M the level of advanced technology.
the research community, the support communi-
ty and the graduate education that we seek,"
He emphasizes that everyone wins by the
cooperation. "It's going to help the state of
Texas particularly," he says.
IN ADDITION TO the A &M research park.
College Station has a 2,300 -acre industrial - park
— 1,265 acres of it owned by the city — under
design about five miles south of the campus. It
is a high -tech business park that will accommo-
date non - research activities, including; state
and regional headquarters for corporations.
and planning includes a golf course, recrea-
tional areas and a hotel - convention centee
A&M has also entered into an agreement
with Mitchell Energy & Development Corp..
Rice University and the University of Houston
to form the Houston Area Research Center, in

The Woodlands center is designed to operate
as a non - profit organization to provide contract
research services to the private sector and gov-
ernment agencies.

Jju screens 3 industrid P`arks
COLLEGE STATION — This 100,000 - population col-
lege community will soon boast three industrial parks,
with two of the high -tech variety rapidly advancing
through the planning stage —one emphasizing research
and the other catering to clean industry and corporate
headquarters. '
The Industrial Park Development Committee ap-
pointed by the Texas A &M University System Board of
Regents Chairman H.R. Bright met here Thursday to
receive a report on the 2,300 -acre College Station Indus-
trial Park located about five miles south of the Texas
A &M University campus.
The committee also began screening the resumes of
M applicants or nominees for director of the industrial
research park to be located on Texas MM property.
31F acre site adjacent to the west side of the main
campus was approved last qionth by the board upon the
&&immendation of the committee composed of regents
And senior Texas A &M and system officials.
The regents instructed system officials to procr as
>t. pidly as possible in establishing the industrial re-
search park.
Dennis Goehring, president of the College Stalipn In-
dustrial Development Foundation. briefed committee
members and city and county officials on the scope of
the College Station Industrial Park. Ile described it as a
high - technological industrial business park that will ac-
commodate non - research activities ranging from glean
industry to state and regional headquarters for co, pora-
tions.
Goehring said the College Station park will include a
golf course, parks and other recreational areas, nature
trails and a hotel and convention center.
He emphasized the College Station park will comple-
ment the Texas MM park — and not compete with it.
The College Station park, for example, could be an
alternative for companies that insist on buying land for
development, as opposed to leasing, Goehring said. The
Texas A &M park, being on slate property, will offer
only long -term leases.
"In essence, we plan to give options to firms that want
to locate near A &M but cannot be accommodated on
university property," he said, explaining that some
companies may want more land than will be available
on the Texas MM tract.
The City of College Station owns 1,265 acres in the
outlying park, with private investors owning slightly
over 1,000 acres.
Goehring said he expects development of the College
Station park to begin by late spring.
"The time has come for us to capitalize on this oppor-
tunity," the foundation president said, referring to the
community's proximity to Texas A &M.
'In additiop to the. two proposed high -tech parks, the
community has the 400-acre Brazos County Industrial
Park made possible by the Bryan - College Station Cham-
ber of Commerce. It caters to light industry.
Texas A &M has also entered into an agreement with
Mitchell Energy & Development Corp., Rice University
and the University of Houston to form the Houston Area
Research Center in The Woodlands, the - planned com-
munity developed by Mitchell north of Houston. The
center is designed to operate as a non - profit organiza-
tion to provide contract and grant research services.
