SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
GWB Investments, L.P. has approached the City for water service to the company's proposed 32.3303 acre
site on Baypark Road in the City's Bayport District (see Exhibit "F" - Area Map).
Council has approved a policy to provide water and sanitary sewer service to companies located outside the
city limits and within the City's industrial districts. These companies are required by the policy to execute
and maintain an Industrial District Agreement with the City. GWB Investments, L.P. desires to obtain water
service under the terms of this policy.
Based on the company's stated demand for domestic and industrial process uses, the average daily
demand for water is 10,500 gpd which is within the policy's limit of 30,000 gallons per day. This demand
includes utilization of 5,000 gpd of water for the company's truck washing operations. The applicant will pay
one and one-half (1-Y2) times the City's current utility rate. Additionally, GWB Investments, L.P. is subject to
a one-time connection fee associated with its Water Service Agreement in the amount of $11,000 for which
payment has subsequently been received.
The terms of the IDA, WSA and SSSA expire on December 31, 2007, plus any renewals and extensions
thereof. However, the agreements shall automatically expire at such time as there is no effective IDA
between the parties or, if the city exercises the right of termination.
Staff recommends approval of an Industrial District Agreement & Water Service Agreement for GWB
Investments as submitted herein.
Action Required bv Council:
Approve an ordinance authorizing the City to enter into an Industrial District Agreement and an ordinance
authorizing the City to execute a Water Service Agreement with GWB Investments, L.P.
