SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
At the April 8, 2006 Council Pre-Budget Retreat, the possibility of adding additional code enforcement
personnel to the Inspection Services Division was discussed. Staff's presentation included information on
adding Community Service Inspector (field) and Community Service Technician (office) for the budget
year 2006/2007 and the hiring of personnel "mid-year". The mid-year proposal utilized temporary
personnel that would later become full-time employees. The original March 28, 2006 memo, which
included reference to the "mid-year" option is attached for Council's convenience.
Staff was directed to obtain information on the mid-year addition and return to Council for their formal
consideration. Coordinating with the Human Resources Department, we have obtained employment
agency costs associated with the hiring of both positions. An estimated cost of $21,000.00 covers the
term from June 19th thru September 30th (15 weeks) for both the Community Service Inspector I and the
Community Service Technician.
Authorization of these positions will require Council approval of funds for the remaining (4) months of
the current budget year.
Action Required bv Council:
Consider approval of$21,000.00 in funds, from the City Council Reserve, to cover the mid-year
addition of personnel

Memo to City Council, March 21, 2006
SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
The attached Playground Standards Report that was approved by City Council in 2000, shows needs of
$30-80k for annual playground replacement for parks in our system, and shows a schedule based on need for all
of the parks in our park system. We have been budgeting $27,000 annually for equipment, which includes
approximately $18,000 for equipment, and $10,000 for fall material, concrete work, and a picnic shelter
structure. The estimated cost for this year is approximately $28,000 due to cost increases in materials and
equipment.
This year during the budget process City Council authorized park playground and park service
equipment purchases for the Park to Standards project at Pete Gilliam Park, Y2 the park equipment for the
recently acquired Spenwick Park, and in addition, Council has requested that we accelerate the purchase of
equipment for a proposed park in Park Zone 5. The City is using pricing through the Texas Buy Board, a method
of purchasing where the competitive bids are obtained and approved through the State of Texas. The attached
letters from May Recreation Equipment Company give the pricing for the total as well as individual costs for
each item contemplated. The Miracle Equipment specified is the same equipment that we have used in our parks
for the past several years. It is commercial quality and is serviceable and durable.
Spenwick Park: Council chose to fund Y2 of the normal $27,000 ($14,000 was set aside) from its
discretionary funds, for park equipment for Spenwick Park in the current year, with the rest to follow at a later
date. The cost of Spenwick Park equipment exceeds the funds set aside for the project by $5,600. Adding this
funding would allow the purchase of the standard equipment for this park and then, as planned, complete the
concrete work, and shelter, in FY 06-07. Council may choose to include this equipment at this time by funding
the difference, or a portion of the amount of the cost overrun can be deducted from the total bid, and we would
purchase the modular play structure and border timbers only.
Park Zone 5 park: This proposed park was not included in the FY 05-06 budget; however, funds in the
amount of $38,261 are available in Park Zone 5 for park development that is earmarked for this purpose. The
City is currently negotiating a SPARK Park with the LPISD at property the District owns at the intersection of
"D" Street and Sens Road, and is purchasing the equipment in advance of an anticipated agreement with the
District to service the needs of citizens in Park Zone 5. To provide for a standard park for this zone, staff
proposes to purchase the standard equipment, along with other enhancements (i.e. baseball backstop), the
standard concrete work and picnic shelter, fall material, etc. In addition, at this park we would look at a
connector sidewalk to the Spencer Landing subdivision along "D" Street, as well as a walking trail in the
proposed park. At this time we are gathering prices for sidewalk and trail; we currently do not know the footprint
of the proposed school on this property so we don't know how much available space we will have for the park or
exactly where it will be located. When those things have been determined, staff will present to Council for
consideration.
Pete Gilliam Park: Council approved this CIP project in the FY05-06 budget based on the above
mentioned Playground Standard Report. Another option that may be considered by Council is to defer the parks
to standard improvements at Pete Gilliam Park in this fiscal year and pick it up in the following year. Council
could also choose to delete it from the replacement list altogether. The savings in either case could then be
applied to enhance the equipment for the proposed Zone 5 Park. This option would allow some additional
equipment and infrastructure improvements for this proposed park over and above the standard park
improvement package. Both Pete Gilliam Park and the proposed Park Zone 5 park are in Council District 4. If
this option is exercised, the purchase of play equipment in this package would be reduced by $17,716; to
approximately $39,234 (the original price includes a 10% discount for purchases of $50,000 or more). This
figure will have to be confirmed by the vendor, May Recreation Equipment Company.
Staff recommends acceptance of the Texas Buy Board pricing from May Recreation Equipment Company in
an amount to be determined by Council (up to $57,950) for play and park service equipment for Pete Gilliam
Park, Spenwick Park, and Park Zone 5 Park according to the bid documents attached, if additional funding is
approved.
Action Reauired bv Council:
Consider award of Texas Buy Board bid to May Recreation Equipment Company for play and park
service equipment for Pete Gilliam Park, Spenwick Park, and Park Zone 5 Park according to the bid documents
attached, and according to Council determination and funding approval.

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
On February 2,2002, the voters of La Porte passed a bond election authorizing the issuance of
debt to complete certain capital projects. The City of La Porte issued General Obligation Bonds
for the following project:
Police Headquarters
up to $10,500,000
We are moving forward with further design and we recommend the City Council approve a
resolution that allows the City to reimburse itself from future bond proceeds for expenditures that
are made prior to the issuance of the debt. This is a position that we have taken on several other
projects in the past as recommended by bond counsel and required by federal law.
The attached resolutions give us the option to reimburse ourselves from future bond proceeds for
certain costs associated with the above-mentioned projects.
Action Required bv Council: Approve resolutions declaring intention to reimburse certain
expenditures with borrowing proceeds.
