<br />The La Porte - Seabrook Landfill will cost approximately <br />$4 Million. This cost is to be shared by La Porte and <br />Seabrook residents on the actual tonnage use. The bond <br />debt will consequently be shared between the two <br />cities. This figure includes an 80-acre site and its <br />development on Bay Area Boulevard in the Bayport <br />Industrial District. This is an industrial area with no <br />residential developments in the vicinity. Great care <br />has been taken to ensure a safe landfill which will <br />comply with air quality and health standards. <br />Proposition Six <br />Two recreational facilities were approved in this bond <br />issue to ease the current need for extended and improved <br />recreational parks in La Porte.

The park will highlight a 25-meter swimming <br />pool, two tennis courts, a basketball court, a <br />soccer-football field, and various playground <br />facilities. <br />Proposition Seven <br />A recreational and community complex was approved for <br />Little Cedar Bayou Park. The complex will offer both <br />recreational and civic uses. Young and old alike can <br />enjoy this facility in a conveniently located and scenic <br />site. <br />The 14,000 square foot complex will cost approximately <br />$1.5 Million and will house a gymnasium, an auditorium, <br />park offices, weight and exercise rooms, and 2 community <br />meeting rooms.
