Meza, Mayor <br />City of La Porte <br />P. 0. Box 1115 <br />L a Porte, Texas 77571 <br />Dear Mayor Meza: <br />CLAYTON T. GARRISON <br />JAMES M. ROSE <br />MACK WALLACE <br />HUGH C. YANTIS, JR. <br />EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR <br />PHONE: (512) 475-2651 <br />SANDRA JOHNSON <br />SECRETARY <br />We understand from your engineer that Bayshore MUD has contacted the City to <br />discuss having sewage from the District treated in the City of La Porte's <br />• plant. Since this Agency has taken enforcement action against La Porte, you <br />were interested in the reaction of this Agency to a possible tie in of Bayshore <br />MUD to your system. <br />Bayshore MUD has a need for adequate sewage treatment facilities. La Porte <br />has a need for improved and expanded sewerage facilities, therefore, it is <br />logical to consider solving these needs jointly. We have no objections to <br />your City working out an acceptable agreement with Bayshore. However, such <br />an agreement would have to be carefully worked out to insure all permit <br />requirements, enforcement orders, grant schedules, etc. are either properly <br />complied with or amended. This agreement would be subject to a lot of details <br />but could be done. <br />The City of La Porte currently has a Step 1 grant for the development of a <br />facility plan. This Step 1 grant could be expanded to allow additional work <br />to be done to include Bayshore's area in the facility plan. This can be done <br />without an adverse impact on the City's current grant. However, if the City <br />would like to pursue this effort, it should be initiated in the very near <br />future. We will be happy to meet with you and discuss in greater detail the <br />procedures to be followed if you desire. <br />Very truly yours, <br />_ f <br />-~~ <br />Ro ert G.
