<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />SUNRISE DRIVE <br /> <br />County Commissioner Jim Fonteno would like to propose a three-way joint venture to <br />resolve a drainage issue, which impacts the City of Shoreacres. The proposal involves <br />the LPISD and the City of La Porte. The reason the City is being asked to assist in the <br />resolution is because a portion of the City of La Porte drains into this watershed. The <br />point of discharge into the receiving stream is in Shoreacres. <br /> <br />The County has set aside $600,000 for this project. <br /> <br />Projected Construction Costs <br /> <br />$831,305.00 <br /> <br />Funds Available from Precinct 2 <br /> <br />- 600.000.00 <br />$231,305.00 <br /> <br />Projected Funds from LPISD <br /> <br />+ 91.444.00 <br /> <br />Needed Funds to Complete Project <br /> <br />$139.861.00 <br /> <br />In visiting with Elmo Wright, Chief of Staff for Commissioner Fonteno, I explained that <br />it would be very difficult for the City of La Porte to contribute to this project without the <br />City of Shoreacres contributing as well. <br /> <br />I do feel some contribution is appropriate, but I do not know at what level. Citizens of <br />La Porte do use Sunrise Drive in order to get to and from home. We estimate that <br />approximately 488 residents live in the area south of Shoreacres' city limits, which <br />consists of approximately 107 acres. This area was part of the former BayMUD. <br />
