The specific tract is located at 900 E. Barbours Cut Blvd. and is legally described as Reserve A, Block 1, Port of Houston Authority. The property is owned and operated by the Port Authority of Houston and houses one of their pre-check trucking facilities. The site is operating under an existing SCUP which was approved in 2003. The current SCUP was amended in October of 2017 to allow for extended hours of operation. This was due to an increase in traffic at the port and thus, an increase in trucks being processed through the pre-check facility. The new request is to amend six (6) of the original thirteen (13) conditions in order to facilitate a proposed redevelopment and expansion of the current pre-check truck facility. The amendments are as follows: Condition #3 - "Comply with the General Plan approved be the City." The Port Authority requests that Permit Condition No. 3 be amended to reflect an amended General Plan approved by the City, which reflects the updated Site Plan (See Exhibit D). Condition #4 -"Ensure that at least 30 percent of the property consists of landscaping and/ or screening." The Port Authority requests that Permit Condition No. 4 be amended to add "landscaped ponds (either dry or wet) with native grasses at completion of the project" to the 30% requirement. Condition # 5 - "Provide detailed landscape and screening plans during site plan submittal. Allow existing trees and shrubs to remain as natural buffer. Provide "in fill" planting of trees and shrubs." The Port Authority requests that the second and last sentences of Permit Condition No. 5 be amended to read as follows: "Allow existing trees and shrubs exterior to the sound wall to remain as a natural buffer. Provide "in fill" ponds with native grasses and planting of drought-tolerant trees along the boulevard R.O.W., which provides for one year of established watering." Condition #6 - "Provide an irrigation system to ensure that all landscaping and careening is properly maintained by the owner/ developer." The Port Authority requests that Permit Condition No. 6 be deleted, as irrigation is not needed for native grass and drought tolerant trees per La Porte Zoning Ordinances. Condition # 7 - "Adhere to the provisions and details shown in facilities lighting plan. Ensure that all illumination occurs on site and does not affect nearby residences." The Port Authority requests that the Permit Condition No. 7 be revised to delete the current text and replace it with, "The revised lighting plan shall adhere to the requirements of applicable City Ordinances." Condition #8 - "Enhance the building facade so that it is architecturally and aesthetically pleasing. The Planning and Zoning Commission must approve the design." Since there is only a small electrical and IT building proposed in the new design, the Port Authority requests that Permit Condition No. 8 be replace it with, "The Planning and Zoning Commission must approve the design of the new building and canopies". Notices of the Public Hearing, along with comment sheets, were sent to all property owners Staff did not receive any returned comment sheets for the proposed SCUP. The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their June 20, 2019 regular meeting, voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the proposed SCUP, as presented with no additional conditions. Proposed SCUP (Exhibit A) is attached. Any substantive modifications to this Special Conditional Use Permit will require an amendment t. ACTION REQUIRED BY COUNCIL 1. Conduct public hearing. 2.

This request is in conjunction with a request for a Special Conditional Use Permit (SCUP) to allow for the construction of a 109,000 square foot industrial facility. The applicant failed to gain approval of the previous SCUP request and has since resubmitted with minor changes. These changes would limit the building size to no greater than 109,000 square feet, limit the total number of bay doors to 9 and limit the truck maneuverability on site. Staff mailed public notice to all property owners located within 200 feet of the subject property and received one (1) comment sheet in opposition of the proposed request.

The Application was filed with each municipality exercising original jurisdiction over which $186.6 million will be collected from retail customers. In addition, CenterPoint is proposing through a separate Tax Cut and Jobs Act (TCJA) Rider, to return approximately $97 million to customers over a three-year period. After the three-year period, the TCJA Rider expires. The City of La Porte, as a local regulatory authority, exercises original jurisdiction over the rates, operations and services of CenterPoint for customers located within the City Texas Utilities Code. The new rates would affect rates, operations or services for CenterPoint retail customers within the City. PURA Sections 36.102 and 36.108 provide that the new rates take effect on the thirty- th fifth (35) day of filing. Additionally, PURA Section 36.108 provides that a local regulatory authority may suspend the operation of the Application for ninety (90) days beyond the date the new rates would otherwise be effective. PURA Section 36.109 provides that unless the local regulatory authority establishes interim rates, the rates in effect at the time the Application is filed remain in effect during the suspension period. The average residential customer using 1,000 kWh per month would experience an approximate 1.91% increase $2.50 per month for the first three years, assuming an existing retail rate of $0.125 per kWh.Please note that the residential rate above is TCJA Rider expires in three years. On May 10, 2019, the City Council approved an Ordinance suspending the electric rate adjustments for 90 days to allow further analysis of the proposed new rates. On May 13, 2019, the City Council approved a resolution to participate in the Coalition of Cities to assist in the analysis of the proposed rate increases of CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC. On June 6, 2019, the Houston Coalition experts filed testimony with the Public Utility Commission related to these requested rate increases. Rebuttal testimony was filed with the Commission on June 19, 2019. On June 24-27 a Hearing on the Merits for this case was held before the State Office of Administrative Hearing (SOAH) administrative law judges. Houston Coalition legal and exerts participated and presented testimony in the Hearings on behalf of the Coalition of Cities. The Coalition of Cities have recommended to the City of La Porte to conduct a public hearing to receive input from residents and/or CenterPoint Energy as it relates to the proposed new rate increases. At this time, the expert utility rate consultants retained to CenterPoint has not yet demonstrated through its application and testimony that its new rates are just and reasonable, non-discriminatory and in compliance with all applicable laws. Therefore, the Coalition of Cities recommends, and staff concurs, that the City Council adopt an oproposed rate increase and maintain existing rates in effect for customers within our community. ACTION REQUIRED BY COUNCIL Conduct a public hearing to hear from residents and/or CenterPoint Energy related to the proposed rate increase. Move to adopt Ordinance 2019-3753 denying rate adjustments proposed by CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC for customers within the City of La Porte.

The Houston Coalition experts recommend that Coalition cities deny CenterPoint’s request for a rate increase. Attached is a sample denial ordinance. The experts reviewed the filing and recommended several adjustments which amount to a significant decrease to CenterPoint’s overall request. On June 6, 2019, the Houston Coalition experts filed testimony with the Public Utility Commission (PUC or Commission) in the concurrent proceeding at the Commission. Rebuttal testimony was filed with the Commission on June 19, 2019. Combined with the adjustments recommended by the other city coalitions, the cumulative recommendation is an overall reduction to the Company’s stated revenue requirement. Copies of the testimony are available by visiting the PUC Filing Interchange at http://interchange.puc.texas.gov/ and entering the control number 49421. On June 24 – June 27 a Hearing on the Merits for this case was held before the State Office of Administrative Hearing (SOAH) administrative law judges (ALJs). Houston Coalition legal and rate experts participated and presented testimony in the Hearing. Because of the truncated timelines for the PUC proceeding, Coalition legal and rate experts worked diligently to finalize and submit the required initial and reply post-hearing briefs due July 9, and July 16 2019. The City of Houston will conduct a public hearing to consider the determination of just and reasonable rates proposed by CenterPoint Energy to be observed in the City of Houston on July 17, 2019. Member cities can also hold a hearing during one of their City Council meetings. On July 31, 2019, Houston staff will make a recommendation to the Mayor and City Council that City Council approve an ordinance denying Centerpoint’s proposed rate increase. It is recommended that the member cities of the Houston Coalition of Cities adopt a similar ordinance denying CenterPoint’s proposed rate increase and maintaining existing rates in effect for customers within their jurisdiction. A conference call is scheduled for Thursday, July 18, 2019 at 10:30 am (Call-in Number: 1.866.574.2770 Conference Code: 5941750).

(7) Before any permit shall be issued under this article by the director of planning and development, the chief of police shall first sign his approval for the application. Please reference Ord. No. 2019-xxxx Sec. xx-xxx for the conditions imposed on any business applying for this permit. Ord. No. 2019-xxxx Sec. xx-xxx Conditions for Conditional Massage Business Permit recommend changing the process of issuing massage business permits to require been addressed in the revisions to the ordinance. By creating the requirement of a SCUP would add up to three (3) additional months to the process, which would affect those business that are operating in an ethical and legal manner. Any permit issued under this section can be revoked at any time for violations including, but not limited to the following: (1) Failure to adhere to and meet all the requirements necessary to apply for the permit initially. Adding verbiage to Sec 22-418 to cover this. (2) Failure to adhere to the following operational requirements: a) A massage establishment may only operate between the hours of 8:00 A.M to 9:00 P. M. each day. Leave existing hours in ordinance. It works for our other establishments. b) Outside windows of a massage establishment shall be transparent and the view from the outside into the lobby/waiting area shall be unobstructed. Added this to Sec. 22- 433(d) c) All doors shall remain unlocked during normal business hours. Currently in our ordinance. Sec. 22-433, clarified verbiage. 1) A place of business where a licensed massage therapist practices as a solo practitioner in a manner consistent with the applicable provisions of Section 455. 155 of the Texas Occupations Code, as amended, is exempt from this regulation. Staff and Assistant City Attorney does not recommend; this change could also be a safety issue with a therapist locked alone in the business with a customer should something go wrong. Our current ordinance does not allow for solo practitioners to lock the door. d) Signage which provides a hotline number for sex trafficking victims must be displayed. Added to Sec. 22-438, but is already part of state inspection. e) At no time shall a massage establishment provide a residence or dwelling to accompany this occupancy. Currently in our ordinance. Sec. 22-432, clarified verbiage. f) Licenses issued by the State for the establishment and the people working in it who are required to have a State license must be displayed and easily viewable with the lobby or waiting area. Permit required in Sec. 22-419, clarified verbiage; we cannot regulate state licenses. g) A peace officer appointed or employed by a law enforcement agency of this state, or a licensed Code Enforcement Officer employed by the City, may enter without delay the premises of a massage establishment pursuant to Sections 455. 104 and 455.353 of the Texas Occupations Code. 1) If entry and access to the premises of the massage establishment is denied or delayed, entry shall be made under authority of a warrant to inspect the massage establishment. Currently in ordinance Sec. 22-433 h) All customer access to the business must occur at the business door. Add to ordinance Sec. 22-433(c) i) A massage establishment may not have an ATM located inside the business structure. was prudent to try to regulate this, although a cash only business may be an indication of illegal activity. j) A massage establishment may not have a sign which is visible from the outside of the building which flashes or changes colors. We discussed this and it would require a change to the sign ordinance would adversely affect other businesses in the city. Councilpersons Lunsford and Bentley are co-sponsors for the item. ACTION REQUIRED BY COUNCIL Move to direct the City Manager and City Attorney to draft an ordinance amending Section 22.418 of Ordinance 2015-3598, concerning issuance of conditional massage business permits. Approved for the City Council meeting agenda Corby D. Alexander, City Manager Date REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM Appropriation Agenda Date Requested: 07/22/2019 Source of Funds: Requested By: Matt Hartleib Department: Administration - HR Account Number: Amount Budgeted: Report Resolution Ordinance Amount Requested: Exhibits: Compensation Presentation Budgeted Item: Yes No Market Data SUMMARY In June of 2017 and later as part of the annual budget process, staff presented to Council, results from a compensation and classification review. Recommended changes resulting from that review were approved and effective on 10/01/2017. In April of 2019, Council received presentations of salary studies conducted by the EMS and Fire departments accompanied by recommendations to increase certain pay grades and salaries for EMS and Fire staff by 20% and 25% respectively. Those approved changes went into effect on 6/1/2019. On July 2, 2019, members of the La Porte Police Officers Association and City Management staff participated in a Meet and Confer meeting to discuss compensation for covered employees. Both sides agreed to approve the market study conducted earlier this year and the recommended increases to the Civil Service Pay Scale. The total cost of the market based increases is just below the contractually agreed to cap of 5%. Pending approval from the LPPOA membership, these changes will be presented to Council for approval and will be effective 10/01/2019. Staff has completed an updated salary survey for all other non-civil service positions on the general pay grade structure. This includes positions in grades 8-44 and does not include positions that report directly to Council. This survey includes benchmarked positions with responsive comparator cities supplemented by a regional compensation survey conducted by the Houston Galveston Area Council in 2018. Results of this survey indicate that the current City of La Porte pay structure for grades 8-44 is 5% lower than the market. It is recommended that pay ranges for grades 8-44 on the general pay structure be increased by 5%. To avoid an increase in existing compression issues in these grades, it is also recommended that salaries for employees in these ranges be increased a corresponding 5%, and the City continues to operate the existing merit program.

Market Data Refresh On average, current La Porte midpoints are 5% below the market Utilizing benchmarked positions, market data from comparator cities (Deer Park, Baytown, Friendswood, and League City) was updated. An additional regional survey (HGAC) was also utilized. Midpoints from comparator cities and average midpoints from the HGAC survey were compared to current La Porte midpoints. Those position comparisons were then averaged to create grade comparisons. Finally those data points were combined to create overall entity and a market comparison. 44 receive a 5% - Recommendations To remain competitive in attracting and retaining high caliber personnel, it is recommended that we increase ranges for all grades by 5%.In order to avoid exacerbating compression issues within grades and to be consistent with recent adjustments to EMS and Fire, it is recommended that all employees in grades 8market adjustment. It is also recommended that we continue to operate our performance evaluation and merit plan. This provides employees opportunity to move up through their grade range based on their performance.
