BOX 11155 <br />LA PORTE, TX 77571 <br /> <br />Attn: Ms. Sherri Black, City Secretary <br /> <br />RE: Special use permit to allow truck wash and truck terminal. <br /> <br />Dear Ms. Black: <br /> <br />Dana Tank Container, Inc. was incorporated on May 27, 1983, in the <br />state of New Jersey. The company is privately held by Mr. Ronald <br />B. Dana. <br /> <br />Dana Tank Container was developed to control the cleaning, maintenance, <br />and ISO tank equipment leasing opportunities that have surfaced in the <br />New Jersey area. This market previously had been ignored by the <br />transportation companies on the eastern seaboard. The future growth <br />potential of these particular business areas is excellent. <br /> <br />In October 1984, Dana established a sales office in Houston to explore <br />the possibilities of performing the same business functions in the <br />gulf region. The response was so positive that Dana has negotiated <br />for property in La Porte to establish a full service terminal. <br /> <br />The site is located at 303 North L Street and it is presently zoned <br />industrial property. The intended use of the site is as follows: <br /> <br />- TANK WASHING FACILITY <br />- TANK EQUIPMENT REPAIR <br />- EMPTY TANK STORAGE <br />- DISPATCHING OF TANK TRUCKS <br />- LEASING OF TANK EQUIPMENT <br /> <br />Dana is aware of the various permitting requirements that must be <br />arranged in both the City and the State. Many of the applications <br />are already in our possesion and in various stages of completion. <br />We will be contacting the proper authorities in La Porte and in <br />Austin in the near future to finalize the application processes. <br /> <br />Please do not hesitate to contact myself at the Houston number <br />above should you have further questions about our proposed use of <br />the site. We look forward to meeting with the board in the near <br />future. <br />
