<br /> <br />City of La Porte <br />Established 1892 <br /> <br />January 6, 2005 <br /> <br />Ms. Martha A. Gillett <br />City Secretary <br />City of La Porte <br />City Hall <br />La Porte, Texas <br /> <br />Re: Agenda Request for January 24, 2005, Council Meeting <br /> <br />Dear Martha: <br /> <br />At its last meeting, City Council approved a contract for the <br />construction of Fire station No.2. <br /> <br />Mayor Norman Malone was asked to visit with Lin Pfeiffer regarding <br />the naming of Fire Station No.2 in honor of Lin's father, the late <br />H.P. Pfeiffer, in recognition of his father's history as a <br />volunteer fire fighter and his many contributions to the City of La <br />Porte, including his service as Mayor of the City. Mayor Malone <br />did meet with Lin, and Lin agreed. <br /> <br />with the letting of the contract, the ground breaking for Fire <br />Station No. 2 will be held soon. <br /> <br />I have had Knox Askins draft the enclosed Ordinance for City <br />Council consideration at its January 24th meeting, naming City of <br />La Porte Fire station No. 2 for the late H. P. Pfeiffer. This <br />ordinance would waive the requirements of Ordinance No. 2000-2443, <br />which requires that a person be deceased for five years before a <br />City facility is named for them. <br /> <br />Yours very truly, <br />r'~~: ~ l_ I' V _L~. __ <br />~~G. ,,~--- <br /> <br />Alton E.
