• Regular Meeting - CONCUR - 8/5/74 - Continued CJ 11 Mayor Thomas stated that the proposed public hearing to be held on September 13, 1974, that La Porte was to host had been changed. He stated that he received a telephone call from Mr. Thomasson in Austin and it was the consensus of opinion that the hearing should be held in Houston since Mayor Hofheinz had taken the stand in favor of this. He further stated that there would probably be better city participation and have much more effect with the hearing being held in Houston. Mayor Thomas felt we were most fortunate to have the City of Houston in agreement in trying to get a Utility Commission formed. Mr. Askins suggested that Mayor Thomas try and get on the agenda at the hearing. Mayor Thomas stated that he had been extended an invitation to get on the agenda to speak. + + + • 16.
