During <br /> the Pasadena annexation of San Jacinto College and their rodeo <br /> and Civic center ground., the first public hearing on that <br /> annexation did include College View M.U.D. College View M.U.D. <br /> was one of the tracts included in the public hearing that was <br /> held on that annexation, and it was dropped iimnediately following <br /> that public hearing. It was our understanding at that time that <br /> there was some sort of agreement between the two cities that <br /> didn't materialize. We were told that--not by the City of La Porte- <br /> OK? I spoke at the hearing, so I know there was such a hearing. <br /> That was one question that was raised. Another one was the <br /> Justice Department requirement. We were told that there would <br /> be no annexation in this area by the City of La Porte until 1985 <br /> because of the need for the Justice Department approval. We were <br />• told that, and we passed that word around the neighborhood. The <br />word came from someone who is no longer a public figure in the <br /> City of La Porte. The legal notice in regard to this hearing <br />
