XXX Report _ tion _ Ordinance
Exhibits:
I I s l l VI a
At the February 1" Council Workshop staff discussed several water and sewer service requests from
owners/developers of property outside the city limits but within the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). These
requests, for various reasons, did not fit Council's established policy for water service outside the city limits.
At the workshop, Council provided general direction and asked that staff return with proposed amendments to
the existing policy for providing utilities outside the city limits.
Attached are three draft documents that staff believes are responsive to direction received by Council
1. Policy Document tided:
Requests for Potable Water Service and /or Sanitary Sewer Service Outside the City of La Porte
For Companies With an Industrial District Agreement
2. Water Service Agreement
3. Sanitary Sewer Service Agreement (this is anew document)
To assist Council in reviewing the documents we have 8,4.0"scud, new language and lined then deleted language
except for the sanitary sewer service agreement, which is a new document.
The Sanitary Sewer Service Agreement is a new document. Its construction is essentially the same as the water
service agreement except that it deals with furnishing of sanitary sewer.
Some of the issues discussed at the February 1" Council workshop are addressed as follows.
• AdministrativelConnection Fee (for both water and sewer)
• The existing policy establishes a fee of $100 per employee with a minimum of S5,000 and
maximum of $15,000. Between the minimum and maximum, the 50 gal/employee/day results in
a administrativr/connection fee of $2.00/gal.
• This same S2.00/gal and same minimum and maximum fee was established for companies that
requested service greater than 50 gallemployee/dey.
• Maximum Water and Sewer demand to be considered by this policy.
• 30,000 gaBas jday
• Terms of Agreement
• The current and proposed policy calls for a term of 5 years together with any renewals or
extensions. It further states that the Agreement shall automatically expire at such time as there
is no effective Industrial District Agreement Therefore, we will be in a position to negotiate
both the IDA and the term of the utility service agreement Note: Staff would like to promote a
situation where thee£utility service agreements coincide with t I.D.A.'s or have some common
t expiration date. It would be our plan to negotiate this when the I.D.A.'s are renewed (2000).
• Beautification, setbacks, land uses etc.
• Several issues related to land use and improved visual image along major roadways into the
City were discussed at the February V workshop. These were addressed in the following
matter.
• A section on additional regulations and restrictions was added to the policies and to the
utility service agreements in a proposed Exhibit A.
• This Exhibit A is where Council would consider and approve on a case by can basis any
special regulations or restrictions referred to in the policy statement (such as setbacks,
landscaping, berms, beautification, etc.)
• Exhibit A also requires new developments to provide a stormwater plan approved by Harris
County Flood Control District and City. It further provides for continued maintenance.
Action Required by Council:
Consider approval of proposed policy for "Requests for Potable Water Service and /or Sanitary Sewer Service
Outside the City of La Porte For Companies With an Industrial District Agreement" and approve general form
of Water and Sewer Service Agreements, or give fiather direction to staff.
