MINUTES OF THE SPECIAL MEETING OF THE
CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA PORTE
SEPTEMBER 6, 2018
The City Council of the City of La Porte met in a special meeting on Monday September 6, 2018, at the
City Hall Council Chambers, 604 West Fairmont Parkway, La Porte, Texas, at 6:00 p.m. to consider the
following items of business:

3. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Councilmember Danny Earp.
4. PUBLIC COMMENTS (Limited to five minutes per person.)
No members of the public presented for public comments.
5. DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION
(a) Discussion and possible action to provide direction to the City Manager regarding the City of
La Porte Fiscal Year 2018-2019 tax rate and Fiscal Year 2018-2019 budget - C. Alexander
City Manager Corby Alexander stated that at the last budget discussion, there were a number of
items he wanted to follow-up on with Council for direction. He proposed going through each item to
get direction from Council.
Mr. Alexander stated the first item is regarding raising the tax rate by $.05. There was a concern by
staff regarding whether going up five cents would put us above rollback. After doing the
calculations, he reported that five cents does not put the City above rollback; so, it is an option that
Council could consider without having a rollback election. He stated
would like to pursue, there are public hearings that must happen; so, staff needs direction on this
tonight so that publication of the hearings can be made according to law. Councilmember Bentley
asked about the proposed schedule. Mr. Alexander stated the proposed schedule would be
th
publication of the public hearings in the 13 edition of the Bay Area Observer, stating there will be a
th
special meeting on the 20 for the first public hearing and the second public hearing at the regular
th
meeting on 24. The tax rate adoption cannot be sooner than a week after the second public
hearing; so, the tax rate could be adopted at a meeting October 1 thru October 8. October 8 is the
first regular Council meeting in October.
Councilmember Zemanek spoke and informed Council that it is his idea to increase the tax rate in
order to earmark projects for a new fitness center; revamping the Fitness Center for the seniors
once there is a new building; a stipend for city employees paid in November 2018; turfing the Pecan
Page 1 of 9
September 6, 2018 Council Meeting Minutes
Park baseball fields; drainage improvements;and increase funding for summer youth programs. He
stated regarding priority of the items, he wants the stipend for employees this year, do the fitness
center, the programs for the youth during the summer, the revamping of the current center for the
seniors, and the turfing of the baseball fields will have to come after the other projects are
completed and paid for. The increase of the tax rate would be earmarking these specific projects.
Councilmember Zemanek passed out photos of the Fitness Center showing damages which, in his
opinion, prove the need for renovation to it and building of a new Recreation and Fitness Center.
He stated the current building is past its usefulness.
Mayor Rigby asked how old is the building? Councilmember Zemanek said over 50 years old.
Mayor Rigby disagreed and stated
the building was built around 1987-1988.
Councilmember J. Martin commented he is not opposed to a new fitness center, but it is hard for
him to vote to raise taxes. He asked about other financing options besides raising taxes. City
Manager Alexander stated staff has not explored in depth other financing options. He stated it is
probably permissible to use Hotel Motel funds to turf the ballfields because that is a permitted use.
Councilmember J. Martin stated if we already authorized a 10,000-square-foot expansion of the
Fitness Center
new fitness center. He would like to explore the idea of having a bond election and let the citizens
vote it up or down.
Councilmember Zemanek stated that it took 11 years from the bond election to opening day of the
wait 11 years; and stated the Fitness Center
cannot stand waiting another 11 years.
Mayor Rigby asked why is the maintenance of this building not being kept up? Mr. Alexander said
he and staff will be discussing this.
Councilmember Ojeda commented she is not opposed to a new fitness center but agrees with
Councilmember J. Martin that citizens should have an input on a tax rate increase.
Councilmember Earp commented he is opposed to raising taxes. He stated that going through the
budget, he believes we will find others ways to fund a new fitness center.
Mayor Rigby stated that if it is the decision of the council to build one and figure out how to pay for it
later, we still need to maintain all facilities.
Councilmember Engelken commented he does not want to see taxes increased and more can be
done if we get out of status quo and try to change status quo. He said maintenance for City
facilities is pathetic and he holds City administration accountable for all City facilities and that staff
should do a better job on maintenance.
City Manager Corby Alexander continued with potential budget decreases.
Council agreed to cut Automated Server Monitoring by $35,000 and Consulting Fees by $5,000.
Mr. Alexander recommended not to eliminate the Director of Planning position budgeted at
$137,000. Councilmember Zemanek asked if the Director of Planning will have an engineering
background. Mr. Alexander responded there are quite a few attractive resumes coming in but none
have an engineering background. Council agreed to keep the position and an engineering
background is not required.
Council agreed to cut the Liability Insurance Fund by $30,000.
Page 2 of 9
September 6, 2018 Council Meeting Minutes
Council agreed to cut the Legal/Prosecutor proposed budget of $285,000 by $101,000, leaving
$184,000 in funds to pay for the City Attorney and also to hire a prosecutor as a full-time employee,
but not to also hire a paralegal.
Council agreed they do want to hire a full time prosecutor. How it will be structured will be
discussed in the future, stating City staff may want to consult with the Olson & Olson Law Firm
provisions.
City Manager Corby Alexander passed out a revision of what was in the packet regarding fees for
the golf course. He stated he felt tasked with reducing the deficit in terms of the difference between
what the golf course brings in in revenue vs. what it costs to operate the golf course. And to
attempt to do that he recommended two things: one, to adjust the fees; and two, the City will
aggressively market the golf course. He went on to say the City will do that no matter what.
As it relates to fees on the handout Mr. Alexander passed out at the meeting, if Council makes all
the changes shown, revenue would increase $86,000 if our number of rounds holds the same. He
asked for direction from Council as to whether they wish to make the fee adjustments all at once or
phase them in.
Mayor Rigby asked if there is anyone who wants to reduce the current golf course subsidy from the
general fund.
Councilmember Engelken stated he agrees to reduce the deficit.
Councilmember J. Martin commented he does not support this reduction in subsidy and, indeed,
believes City spending needs to increase. He stated the golf course generates twice as much
revenue as the rest of the Parks Department, including the fitness center and the Wave Pool. He
stated they are talking about spending millions for parks amenities and cutting back on spending for
the golf course. He stated if the City is going to talk about spending on amenities, the City needs to
step up for the golf course and applaud the hard work that goes on out there and raise it to the next
level. If we were going to raise taxes, I would add that golf course improvements need to be
added.
Councilmember Zemanek provided comments about the number of rounds and fees. Alex Osmond
stated he and staff discussed it, and they would like to increase cart fees immediately and next year
increase the charge for membership green fees since those were just increased last year.
Councilmember Earp stated his original thought was a reduction of $200,000 of subsidy for the golf
course from the general fund, but he came away with recommending a $70,000 reduction in
subsidy so that it keeps everyone whole and moving forward.
Councilmember Ojeda made a motion to approve new rates for golf carts and green fees for residents and
non-residents and leave memberships at the status quo. Councilmember J. Martin seconded. MOTION
FAILED.

City Manager Corby Alexander stated that is $86,000.
Regarding merit pay for non-civil service employees, City Manager Corby Alexander recommended
not reducing the $486,000 proposed funding by $186,000. Mr. Alexander pointed out that while
budget he would like Council to
consider not reducing this item. One is because reduced merit increases would be given to
non-civil service employees, and civil service employees would not be given reduced increases,
which could impact morale. He also stated that in the past,
good recruitment and retention tools, and any change in that would have a negative impact on
those two fronts.
Mr. Alexander stated that if Council does choose to move forward with a stipend, every non-civil
service employee could be given $1,000; and that would cost $300,000. If non-civil service
employees received $1,500, that would cost $450,000.
Councilmembers Zemanek and Earp stated they are in favor of a $1,000 stipend for non-civil
service city employees. Councilmember Earp said if Council was willing to do the $186,000
reduction, we could still give employees a $1,000 stipend, which would be for this budget year only.
Council discussed merit increases and the past market study. Councilmember J. Martin provided
comments regarding the recent market study. He stated
getting back in the same boat we just tried to get out of. He also commented he would like to
continue with merit increases.
Councilmember Zemanek made a motion to give all non-civil service employees a $1,000 stipend payable
in their November paycheck in lieu of merit increases. Councilmember Earp seconded. MOTION FAILED.
Ayes: Councilmembers Earp, Zemanek and Kaminski
Nays: Mayor Rigby, Councilmembers Ojeda, J. Martin, Engelken and
Bentley
Absent: Councilmember K. Martin
Councilmember Engelken made a point to reiterate what merit stands for, which is performance, not
under-performance; and what he saw in those maintenance pictures of the fitness center was of
under-performance, and he expects management to hold their department heads accountable for
that.
Councilmember Bentley commented his nay vote was not that he does not want to compensate
employees but because a one-time stipend does not go as far as a merit increase on a paycheck;
he would like the City to do better than mid-range on the pay scale.
Councilmember Earp made a motion to reduce the merit fund by $186,000 and stick to the merit-based
system, but allocate $300,000 for merit raises instead of $486,000. Councilmember Ojeda seconded.
MOTION PASSED.

Councilmember J. Martin asked are merit raises separate from cost of living raises. Mayor Rigby
said yes. City Manager Alexander reiterated there is no cost of living adjustment included in the
proposed budget.
Mayor Rigby restated the motion, which is to keep merit increases for a total of $300,000.
Councilmember Bentley stated he looked at the figures, and $486,000 is pretty reasonable and gets
us in the right direction to get wages up where they can be more competitive.
Councilmember J. Martin asked for the motion, again. Mayor Rigby restated the motion is to keep
the merit increases in the budget for a total of $300,000.

comment, stating he does not think it is fair to blame department heads for conditions of their

Councilmember Engelken stated that every employee in the City has an obligation to bring up to
their supervisor, and their supervisor should bring it up to their manager when they see problems.
The Rec Center is not the only building he has seen that is in disarray. The culture needs to
change to become more proactive to the betterment of the City as a whole.
Regarding pharmacy changes, City Manager Corby Alexander recommended going with a
formulary change and cutting $250,000; and Council agreed to the cut.
Regarding stop loss coverage, Council agreed to leave the $480,000 in the budget, wait for the bids
for coverage of premiums, and also check to be sure it is legal to discontinue Stop Loss coverage.
Council recessed for a break at 7:36 p.m. and returned at 7:47 p.m. Councilmember Kaminski returned to
the table at 7:48 p.m.
City Manager Corby Alexander recommended to remove the Drainage Interconnect project for
$250,000 due to the developer taking on the expense of the project. Council agreed to remove the
project.
City Manager Corby Alexander recommended removing a portion of the funding of the Spencer
Masonry Fence project for the south side in an amount of $380,400.

looks the worst.

and Council agreed.
City Manager Alexander recommended no Public Works Reduction of Force of $974,000.
Councilmember Earp withdrew his request, and Council agreed to no Public Works Reduction of
Force.
City Manager Alexander recommended to not reduce Fleet Maintenance by $159,000.
Councilmember Earp withdrew his request, and Council agreed to leave it in there.
City Manager Alexander recommended to reduce contingency by $100,000 to $250,000 instead of
$350,000. Council agreed.
City Manager Alexander advised a new position request of $102,000 was miscoded on the large
spreadsheet of the budget, and there is not a request for a new position. He clarified this is not a
savings because the money is still in the budget, but this item was simply miscoded on the large
spreadsheet provided to Council.
Regarding the next item, City Manager Corby Alexander brought up the position of tax
assessor/collector. There is $100,000 in the budget to fund this position. He stated it is his
understanding that Council still wants this position, and staff will continue efforts to bring this
position back in-house.
Councilmember Zemanek asked if staff is pleased with the work performed by Goose Creek
Consolidated School District. Mr. Alexander responded yes. Councilmember Ojeda stated it would
ur citizens think
Rigby asked Council whether there is an objection to removing this position from the budget. There
was no Council objection to removing the position from the budget.
City Manager Corby Alexander informed Council that there has been an increase of $600,000 over
the past three years for Electric Franchise Fees. No further franchise fee increases are anticipated.
City Manager Corby Alexander recommended eliminating funding of $430,000.00 for Phase 1 of a
Private Fiber Network. Staff will come back to Council next April regarding this issue. Council
agreed with the $430,000 reduction
.
(b) Discussion and possible action to propose a Fiscal Year 2018-2019 tax rate for the City of
La Porte and establish public hearing dates (if applicable) as required by State law - J.
Weeks
Assistant City Manager Jason Weeks presented a summary. He stated that this item is being
discussed because if Council decides to consider a rate other than the $.71 which the proposed
budget was based on, if it goes higher than the effective tax rate, then the Mayor will need to
announce the public hearings and the date to adopt, which is in the agenda item background.
Page 6 of 9
September 6, 2018 Council Meeting Minutes
Mayor Rigby stated the tax rate as proposed by staff at $.71 per hundred. City Manager Alexander
replied yes, sir. Mayor Rigby stated that he knows at least two councilmembers have differing
opinions, and asked for discussion.
Councilmember Earp commented after reviewing the proposed budget with staff, he is not asking
for a reduction in the tax rate.
Councilmember J. Martin made a motion to keep the tax rate at $0.71 per $100 of property valuation, and
incorporate the budget changes discussed tonight. Councilmember Bentley seconded.
Mayor Rigby reminded Council that the budget is not being approved tonight; that will be on
th
September 10 agenda with a public hearing. There must be a public hearing before Council can
pass the budget.
Councilmember Zemanek commented he has some rough numbers from what Council did tonight;
we saved $1.95 million out of the budget and asked is this Council willing to earmark some of this
savings to moving forward with the project of the new fitness center?
Councilmember Earp commented he is in favor of it and was originally going to propose to allocate
about $2 million to start the funding, but to keep the budget fairly flat and not impact it from where
as far as the total dollars we were at, we would have to reduce it to start with to about $1.5
million, which would get us to where we are kind of budget neutral from what we cut vs. to be able
to start our fund towards our rec center, .
Councilmember hesitant to earmark money for something that
we have no idea what .
Mayor Rigby stated the first thing Council needs to do is determine if it is something this Council
wants to do repair, upgrade, add on to the current one, or build a new one at another location.
Councilmember J. Martin asked what kind of account would we set up if we were to earmark funds?
City Manager Alexander stated we would have to set up a project, which is how we carry money
over year to year, like we would for any other CIP project; and we would allocate the dollars as you
funding allocation met your construction cost.
Councilmember J. Martin ask if Council did that, would the $1 million allocated out of the EDC be
taken out and put it into this fund? If we are not going to do an expansion, and we are going to look
at moving forward with new construction, would the EDC money be available for this fund? City
that question from a legal standpoint, he
believes the answer would be yes, because he does not think there is a legal difference between
expanding a fitness center and building a new one.
Councilmember Earp asked if Council approves the budget without earmarking money for certain
things, is Council free to come back two months from now if staff does due diligence and the
Council has time to look at something and figure it out, are we free to come back at that time and
move that money, because right now it would be just going into excess funds now, right? City
Manager Alexander stated that what would necessarily
benefits of the
Councilmember Earp stated get the benefits of the cuts and possibly earmark those for the projects
that were put forth.
Mayor Rigby stated what I heard you say is put the money that we reduce the budget by tonight into
a reserve fund and then two months, three months, whatever, from now, we come back and say we
want to allocate X amount to this project. City Manager Alexander said he just wants to make sure
we include whatever, if it

,is go ahead
and decrease the budget those line items discussed tonight, total that up and have a

could.
Assistant City Manager Jason Weeks informed Council they can come back later and consider an
item to take from an unassigned fund balance so that you just move it into reserved. So the cash is
already going into an unassigned fund balance so all doing is reserving it, just moving it
from the one line item to another; and once it goes in there, the only way it can be moved out is if
you release it. City Manager Alexander stated either scenario gets you to where you want to be.
Councilmember Zemanek stated he still wants to ask his question, does this Council have a
problem with earmarking funds for a new rec center. Several
have a problem with it.
Mayor Rigby is to establish,
not adopt, establish a 71-cent-per-$100 valuationwBut that says nothing about
earmarking funds Councilmember J. Martin
Councilmember J. Martin stated, I move that we adopt a $.71 per $100 valuation tax rate and earmark any
savings that we may haveMayor Rigby interjected, Establish, not adopt. Councilmember J. Martin
establishtonight be earmarked towards a fund to look at building a new fitness center and
other amenities. Mayor Rigby asked Councilmember Bentley if he was still okay with the second on that,
and he agreed. Mayor Rigby asked if everyone understands the motion; hearing no response, he then
asked for the vote. MOTION PASSED.

11. TOXICOLOGICAL DATA
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
---ACUTE TOXICOLOGY---
ORAL TOXICITY (RATS): Practically non-toxic (LD50: greater than 2000
mg/kg).---Based on testing of similar products and/or the
components.
DERMAL TOXICITY (RABBITS): Practically non-toxic (LD50: greater than
2000 mg/kg).---Based on testing of similar products and/or the
components.
INHALATION TOXICITY (RATS): Harmful (LC50: greater than 2 but 5 mg/l or
less).---Based on testing of similar products and/or the
components.
EYE IRRITATION (RABBITS): Practically non-irritating. (Draize score: 0
or greater but 6 or less).---Based on testing of similar products
and/or the components.
SKIN IRRITATION (RABBITS): Practically non-irritating. (Primary
Irritation Index: greater than 0.5 but less than 3).---Based on
testing of similar products and/or the components.
OTHER ACUTE TOXICITY DATA: H2S acts as a chemical asphyxiant, preventing
the body from utilizing oxygen in the tissue. It can be irritating
to the eyes at 10 ppm and to the respiratory tract at 50-100 ppm
after 1-hour exposure. Sufficiently high concentrations can result
in immediate collapse and death.
---CHRONIC TOXICOLOGY (SUMMARY)---
***Skin tumorigenicity: Positive in mice. Experiments to assess the
skin cancer potential of crude oil produced mixed results. Some
crudes produced skin tumors in mice, following long term, repeated
exposures, while other crudes produced no tumors. IARC has examined
the full body of data and concluded that crude oil is not
classifiable as to its carcinogenicity (Cat.3), based on the limited
evidence in animals. Prolonged repeated skin contact with low
viscosity materials may defat the skin resulting in possible
irritation and dermatitis.
---OTHER TOXICOLOGY DATA---
Repeated exposures to low levels of benzene (50-500 ppm) have been
reported to result in blood abnormalities including anemia and, in
rare cases, leukemia in both animals and humans. Benzene has also
caused damage to the fetus of test animals in developmental studies.
Benzene has tested positive (mutagenic) in a number of short-term
cancer/mutation predicative tests. Prolonged exposure to n-hexane
may result in a condition known as peripheral neuropathy. This is
nervoussystem damage and is characterized by numbness of the
extremities and, in extreme cases, paralysis. Crude oils may
contain low levels of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs), some of
which, when made available by dilution with solvents or oils, and
under conditions of poor personal hygiene and prolonged repeated
contact, are suspected as a cause of skin cancer in humans. H2S is
a colorless, toxic and extremely flammable gas with an odor at low
concentrations characteristic of rotten eggs and a sweetish odor at
high concentrations. Odor cannot be relied upon as a means of
detection because the sense of smell rapidly becomes insensitive to
H2S, and the H2S odor maybe masked by the general odor of this
product.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
ENVIRONMENTAL FATE ANDEFFECTS:
In the absence of specific environmental data for this crude oil product,
this assessment is based on information developed with various other
crude oils.
ECOTOXICITY: Generally, crude oil is harmful to aquatic organisms.
Indirect toxicity to aquatic wildlife may result from physical
fouling. Shoreline habitats can be significantly impacted by crude
oil.
MOBILITY: Overall, crude oil will float on the water surface if released
in an aquatic environment; if released on land, crude will absorb to
sediment and soil. Because of the range of components which comprise
crude oil, individual hydrocarbon components will begin to partition
to specific environmental media (air, water, soil, and sediment)
immediately following a release.
PERSISTENCE AND DEGRADABILITY: Volatile components will be degraded in
the atmosphere via hydroxyl oxidation. Overall, crude oil is
inherently biodegradable in aquatic and terrestrial environments,
since most fractions of crude oil are known to degrade at moderate
to rapid rates, while some of the heaviest components are expected
to persist.
BIOACCUMULATIVE POTENTIAL: Not established.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS

SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
Recently, Harris County Flood Control District (HCFCD) contacted us regarding the Hike and Bike Trail Bridge that was built in
2010. The bridge is located on the south side of Fairmont, just east of Luella. A map of this location is in the attached proposed
agreement.
The City currently maintains all aspects of this bridge, however HCFCD would like a formal agreement detailing that the City is
responsible for all maintenance and repairs. Legal has reviewed this document and given their approval. This agreement
would be for a term of twenty-five (25) years commencing on the date of its execution, continuing on a year to year basis,
unless terminated with a thirty (30) day notice.
Staff recommends approval of the Interlocal Hike and Bike Trail Bridge Agreement with HCFCD.
Action Required by Council:
Approval or other action with regards to an Interlocal Hike and Bike Trail Bridge Agreement with Harris County Flood
Control District.
