<br />\, <br /> <br />April 29, 1986 <br /> <br />,. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />To the honorable council of the Ci ty of La Por t e, Texas. Please' <br />allow me, Jerry Shults to preface this correspondence by statin~; <br />that I in no manner intend to disrupt any on going business, CalJSe <br />any ill feelings or produce extra work for any council melllbers <br />who might be involved. Very simply stated, this is lilY attempt to <br />create a positive and profitable situation for all illvolvcd partj.t~:;. <br />The situation I refer to is the lots 73 and 74 in block five <br />(5), of Spencer Highway Estates, Harris County, Texas, plat recorded <br />.. <br />in Volume 38, at Page 57, of the Map Records of Harris County, <br />Texas. La Porte water .records reveal that last service to the above <br />property was in approximately Jan 1, 198~ 27 months ago. City <br />ordinance 780 deals with the subject matter of restoration of <br />properties and buildings which have been vacant for a specific <br />period of time, 12 months I beli~ve is the limit. The property In <br />mention has been vacant for 27 months, a difference of only 15 <br />months. <br />The issue I beg to plea ~ith the council is this 15 months. <br />The property is now in possession of Galena Park State Bank. <br />Bank personnel have never even seen the property. It is also <br />common knowledge that the bank has encountered unanticipated <br />complications in selling the property. The complication arise <br />specifically from City Ordinance 780, which I [eel is basically <br />well written and a beneficial ordinance which is interided for the <br />. betterment of the City of La Porte. However, it is my belief tlwt <br />in this particular instance that a 15 month extension to the <br />ordinance 780 would be in the best interest of the City of La Purtl'. <br />
