Dear Bill: Thank you for responding so promplty to my call of August 11, 1987, requesting a meeting between the LaPorte Area Water Authority and the City of Houston regarding the Authority's participation in the City of Houston Southeast Treatment Plant. Your courtesy and pranptness in scheduling this meeting was very much appreciated. As I understand it, you are to forward to me a marked up copy of the April 9, 1987 contract submitted by the LaPorte Area Water Authority to the City of Houston, indicating changes you consider important, so that the authority may take said changes into account and respond to the City of Houston in a timely fashion. As you understand, and as wee discussed at the meeting of August 13, 1987, the LaPorte Area Water. Authority is powerless to proceed in terms of arranging for financing, construction of the line to the plant from the Authority, and_the sale and distribution of Authority bonds used to finance the plant, without a contract from the City of Houston. Therefore, I further appreciate the commitment to me at our August 13, 1987 meeting to prepare this markup and send it to me on or before August 21, 1987. Your speedy assistance will enable us to get on board as full customers and partners in the Southeast Treatment project as soon as possible. As we colim~micated to you at the meeting, it is our desire to move as quickly as we can to finalize this deal and meet the mandate that the Authority has received to convert to surface water by 1990. If my understanding of ,our meeting was incorrect, or if you have any further questions or eaments, please feel free to give me a call. Be assured I have been instructed to give this-matter my fullest attention,.and I will be'in a position to zespond to you in immediate fashion.
