Main La Porte, Texas 77571 • P. O. BOX 1115 • LA FORTE. TEXAS 77571 Re: The La Porte Area Emergency Corps, Contract with Morgan's Point Dear Mayor and Council: Please take this letter as notice from the City of La Porte and the La Porte Area Emergency Corps, that the La Porte Area Emergency Corps shall become a Department within the City of La Porte (that is the Department of Emergency Medical Services), effective October 1, 1984. As part of this aquisition by the City of La Porte of the La Porte Area Emergency Corps, the City of La Porte has agreed to take over all assets and assume all liabilities of the La Porte Area _- Emergency Corps as of October 1, 1984. • As you are aware, the La Porte Area Emergency Corps has a cont>?'act with the City of Morgan's Point, with said contract expiring on the 30th day of September, 1984. If the City of Morgan's Point is still desirous of obtaining ambulance service from the newly constituted Department of Emergency Medical Services within the City of La Porte, the City of La Porte would then like to propose that negotiations take place between the two cities to establish the terms of said ambulance service provision to the the City of Morgan's Point. Since the City of La Porte and the La Porte Area Emergency Corps are in a transition period, the City of La Porte is not able to make firm predictions as to what the new City of Morgan's point ambulance cost would be, either on a monthly, or an annual basis. The City of La Porte does pledge, however, to do everything possible to make the cost of such service as reasonable and inexpensive as possible. Since it will take the City of La Porte some time to come up with firm estimates, the City of La Porte would like to propose to Morgan's Point that an interim contract be entered into between the two cities, that the City of La Porte continue to provide ambulance service to the City of ~torgan's Point at the current contract rate on a month to month basis.
