Texas <br /> <br />r . r, <br /> <br />Aeronautics Commission <br />P09T OFFICE BOX 12807.CAPIT0L 87ATt0N,AU8TIN78711 / (tSt2)478-4788 <br />November 1, 1976 <br />The Honorable J. J. Meza <br />Mayor <br />P. 0. Box 1115 <br />LaPorte, Texas 77571 <br />Re: LaPorte Municipal Airport <br />Dear Mayor Meza: <br />We are attaching an original and one copy of a Grant Offer in the amount <br />of $20,000. The copy can be retained for your files. We are also attach- <br />ing a copy of a sample resolution which you can use as a guide in accepting <br />the grant. <br />If the State of Texas' share, as stated in the offer, and all other items <br />thereof are satisfactory, the offer should be accepted and executed by the <br />official duly designated to take such action by the City of LaPorte. <br />After execution on the part of the City, the original Grant Agreement and <br />a certified copy of the resolution authorizing its acceptance should be <br />• returned to the Texas Aeronautics Commission. <br />Although our Commissioners set aside $25,000, we note from the bids re- <br />ceived on October 20, 1976, that the construction is only $289,860. This, <br />together with reasonable engineering and contingencies, would not be over <br />$340,000, making the City's share approximately $34,000. ,One-half of the <br />above (State's share) would be only $17,000. We believe that a grant of <br />$20,000 would be sufficient. <br />The enclosed offer should be accepted or rejected within the time limit <br />stated in the offer. <br />Sincerely yours, <br />~~ <br />Charles urphy <br />`~~ Directo <br />CM:lb <br />Encl: Grant Offer <br />cc: FAA Houston <br /> <br />Rex C.
