Gillett xxxx Ordinance Exhibits: Ordinance 95- Interlocal Agreement SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION At the City Council Workshop on January 30, 1995, the City Council was briefed on the Harris-Galveston Coastal Subsidence District's water conservation program through fifth-grade elementary schools. The program involves education on water conservation and energy efficiency, and costs $28.00 per student. The City Council, on February 27, 1995, approved an interlocal agreement to sponsor students at Lomax, Reid and Rizzuto Elementary. The second group includes La Porte and Bayshore Elementary, with fifth-grade enrollment of 196. Because the second group includes students from Shoreacres and Morgan's Point, the District worked with these cities to co-sponsor students with La Porte. For each student sponsored, the City will receive a groundwater credit of 84,000 gallons. By sponsoring 98 students, the city will receive a groundwater credit of 8,232,000 gallons, which may be held, transferred, sold or redeemed for up to forty years. The total cost for La Porte to co-sponsor La Porte and Bayshore Elementary with Shoreacres and Morgan's Point is $2,744.00. The Agreement is renewed automatically on an annual basis unless 90 days written notice is given terminating the Agreement. Funds are available in the upcoming FY 1995-96 budget.
