Watson <br />State House of Representatives <br />P.O. Box 2910 <br />Austin, Texas 78767 <br />Dear Ed: <br />I am writing on behalf of the City of La Porte, to urge you <br />to support H.B. 481, "Strip Annexations." It is my under- <br />standing that this Bill would exempt from the prohibition <br />against 500-foot strip annexations, any land the owners of <br />which request to be annexed by the City. This Bill was <br />introduced by Representative Wieting, and is pending before <br />the Intergovernmental Affairs Committee. <br />• Passage of this Bill would be most helpful to the City of <br />La Porte in the administration of its industrial district <br />contracts in its Battleground and also in its Bayport <br />Industrial Districts. I would appreciate your keeping me <br />advised as to the progress of this legislation. <br />Many thanks for your help on this matter. <br />Yours very truly, <br />i%U. <br />Knox W. Askins <br />City Attorney <br />City of La Porte <br />KWA/f h <br />cc - Honorable Mayor <br />City of La Porte <br />P.O. Box 1115 <br />La Porte, Texas <br />and City Commissioners <br />77571 <br />• <br />
