Micha~l Marcotte made a presentation on the City of Houston's proposed <br />Southeast Water Treatment Plant. He reported that the bonds had <br />been sold but to date only Webster had signed a contract to receive <br />water from them. The plant was bid last month at approximately <br />$72 million, plus land and engineering. Mr. Marcotte stated that <br />should the La Porte Area Water Authority sign a contract with the <br />City of Houston for a guaranteed amount, no other part of the <br />system would reduce that amount. Also, it would not be a take or <br />pay contract, only the water used would be billed plus the capital <br />portion. The next expansion would begin in approximatley 5 years <br />and any entity with a contract would have the right of first <br />refusal on any expansion. He suggested that the Authority put <br />together a proposal showing quantity required, any increase forecast, <br />and how it would be paid. <br /> <br />Turner, Collie & Braden, Inc. had given Mr. Marcotte a list of <br />questions that he answered at this meeting. Cecil Allen of Turner, <br />Collie & Braden, Inc. is to get a written response to these questions. <br />Also, Mr. Allen is to get a copy of the bond schedule for the <br />Southeast Plant. <br /> <br />Jack Owen will contact Ron Neighbors of the Harris-Galveston Counties <br />Coastal Subsidence District to attend the next meeting of the <br />Authority to address the changes to the planned conversion that was <br />submitted in February, 1986. <br /> <br />4. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:00 P.M. <br />
