• <br />Mr. Robert T. Herrera <br />Page Two <br />February 16, 2000 <br />■ The City of Friendswood will purchase 1.5 million gallons per day of water capacity <br />from the SEWPP at $.85/gallon for a total cost of $1,275,000, if the City of Pasadena <br />does not participate <br />■ The City of Friendswood will purchase 1.0 million gallons per day of water capacity <br />from the SEWPP at $.85/gallon for a total cost of $850,000 if all three interested parties <br />agree to purchase the amount available equally. <br />We understand the City of La Porte City Council is expected to act on this offer on Monday <br />February 21, 2000 with the approval of the Interlocal Agreement prepared by your City <br />Attorney. Likewise, the City Council of Friendswood is scheduled to meet on February 21, 2000 <br />to adopt a resolution approving the interlocal agreement. <br />On behalf of the City of Friendswood Council and staff, let me express our appreciation to the <br />City of La Porte Council and staff for the spirit of cooperation in this important effort. We all <br />know water, and especially surface water, is becoming an increasingly important and scarce <br />commodity. Your willingness to make your excess capacity available to others in need is to be <br />applauded. We are especially appreciative of your willingness to work with all interested parties <br />to equally share in the available water, rather than require the sealed bidding competitive process <br />originally proposed. Your attitude and actions promote and solidify cooperation among our <br />neighbors. <br />If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact Ron Cox our City Manager at 281- <br />996-3250. <br />Sincerely, <br />Harold L. Whitaker <br />Mayor <br />HLW:REC:tsm <br />Cc Councilmembers <br />City Manager <br />Director of Public Works <br />
