SUMMARY& RECOMMENDATION
During the April 2023 Council Retreat, the City Council received a report on the collapsedblock
wall at the La Porte Police Department gun range and a proposed rebuilding project. Council
directed staff to proceed with the proposed project and include $225,658 in the FY 2024 budget
for the implementation of the project.
The range rebuild project will consist of two phases. The first phase will includethe removal of
the existing lead-filled rubber blocks and some miscellaneous structure materials from the site. A
qualified hazardous materials company must complete the work. The Police Department
contacted three different hazardous materials vendorswho each visitedthe range siteseparately
so that they were aware of the quantity and type of materials to be removed and so that each had
a complete understanding of the scope of work. Quotes were subsequently sent to the vendors.
Upon receipt of the quotesfor the first phase,the low bid was from Haz Mat Special Services,
LLC, in the amount of $13,990.The cost is substantially less than projected originally.
The second phase of the project will be the range rebuild. As discussed during the retreat, the
Department exploredother types of range systems becausethe current rubber block system
proved unsustainable for the Departmentstructurally andeconomically. After research, a bullet
trap system offered byAction Target was recommended.
The Department has received a quote from Action Target for$144,000.00 under a GSA contract
number GS07F0482Y. Action Target is also a sole source for this type of range system due to
the nature of the products used to build the bullet trap system.
The Police Department projects an additional $8,000 in materials, such as lumber, that will be
needed to finish the project.
In summary, the Police Department is seeking approval for the following:
Haz Mat Special Services (removal) $ 13,990
Action Target (rebuild) $144,000
Misc. Materials (rebuild) $ 8,000
Contingency (5%) $ 8,299.50
TOTAL $174,289.50
The Police Department recommends council approve the Police Department to proceed with the
range rebuild project utilizing Haz Mat Special Services, LLC, to remove the existing blocks and
materials and Action Target for constructing a rubberized pellet bullet trap range, miscellaneous
building materials, and contingency amount.
STRATEGIC PLAN STRATEGY AND GOAL
The removal of the existing rubber blocks and materials and rebuilding of the gun range
Guiding Principles:
Governance: The City of La Porte is governed in a transparent, efficient, accountable
and responsive manner on behalf of its citizens that actively promotes citizen
involvement.
Infrastructure and Utilities: The City La Porte will have and maintain a strong
infrastructure and up to date facilities to continue to provide superior services for our

Organizational Excellence: The City of La Porte will operate in a transparent, efficient,

Miscellaneous:
a) The vehicles to be purchased with this agenda request will replace existing
vehicles that are now at the end of their service lives with funding from the Vehicle
Replacement Fund.
b) The budgeted amount listed in the table for the replacement vehicles represents
the total funds deposited by each department through FY 2022-23 in the form of
lease fees paid by the department over the lease term designated for each
vehicle. Funds for motor pool shortage and fleet up-fitting were approved in some
FY 2023-24 divisional budgets. Small fund shortages are paid from the divisional
motor pool account and repaid by division in the following budget cycle.
c) The amounts listed in the table for vehicles/equipment are the funding amounts
approved by Council for the FY 2023-24 budget for equipment replacement. Each
division will pay lease fees over the life of the units to establish a funded amount
for future replacements.
d) The balance remaining (funded amount minus replacement costs) either remains
in the divisional motor pool account to pre-fund a portion of the replacement
vehicle or is sometimes utilized by the division for up-fitting equipment. (e.g. light
bar, trailer hitch, patrol unit up-fitting).
Staff recommends purchase of the listed vehicles and equipment through cooperative
purchasing programs. The Purchasing Division of the Finance Department has
reviewed the recommendation for vehicle and equipment purchases and is in support
of this recommendation. Contract pricing was checked on Cooperative Purchasing
Programs.

SUMMARY& RECOMMENDATION
G & H TowingCompany, a harbor tugcompany,has approached the Cityof La Porte
for domestic water service to serve their tugboat docking facilitylocated at3700 Old
Highway146outside the La Porte City limits and within City of Pasadena.The company
expects to employ up to 30full-time positions at this site, for the purpose of ship
guidance along the Houston Ship Channel area. The site of the dock is adjacent to the
San Jacinto College Maritime Center. The Maritime Center has an operations
agreement with G&H to establish the parking lot and tugboat dock on their property.
The initial term of that agreement expires on April 4. 2031, with the potential for two (2)
additional 5-year renewal terms. The current Interlocal Water Service Agreement
established with San Jacinto College District, prohibits the District from extending
service lines to serve other parties.
City Council has approved a policy to provide water and sanitary sewer service to users
This policy
was followed to establish the existing Water and Sanitary Sewer Service Agreements
with San Jacinto College District. Most applicants maintain an Industrial District
Agreement (IDA) with the City of La Porte. This is not the case with San Jacinto College
Maritime Center, since the property is within Pasadena Industrial District. In this area
Pasadena had no utilities available to serve the tract.Administrative fees in the amount
of $5,000for the water serviceagreement will bereceived from the company.Currently,
25% of the fees havebeen collected from the applicant.
Based on stated demand for domestic uses, the average monthly
volume for potable water is45,750gallons.Given the nature of their business, the
actual usage is estimated at 100,000 gallons per month. G&H has requested that an
additional 54,250 gallons be authorized as washdown water. This amount can be
authorized by Council under Exhibit A, amendment to the agreement, to provide a total
monthly allotment of 100,000 gallons.In the event the additional water is authorized,
G&H Towing has agreed to provide an additional $1500.00 administrative fee. This is
the amount that would be equal to a regular service agreement with 100,000 gallons
usage per month. Under the terms of the policy, G&H Towing will pay one and one-half
(1-If the monthly allotment is
exceeded, t
The terms of the G&H Towing Water Service Agreement will expire on December 31,
2031, and shall be automatically extended for successive one-year terms, unless the
City or Company terminate the agreement. This provision is noted in both agreements
since there is no Industrial District Agreement.
As outlined in the policy, City Council may include additional requirements or
restrictions on Water or Sewer Service agreements as deemed necessary to promote
specific objectives, goals or policies of the City.
Benefits:
Uses are restricted to usual domestic uses and authorized uses only.
Customer has utility needs that can easily be met.
The City currently provides water to the Maritime Center, so no utility extensions
are required.
Liabilities:
Potable water and sanitary sewer use outside the City limits is limited and
restricted by agreements to users on a case-by-case basis.
City staff recommends City Council approving an Ordinance authorizing the City
Manager to execute a water service agreement with G&H Towing for their tugboat
docking facility located at 3700 Old Highway 146.
____________________________________________________________________
STRATEGIC PLAN STRATEGY AND GOAL
3.0 The City of La Porte will have and maintain a strong infrastructure and up to
date facilities in order to continue to provide superior services for our citizens.
4.0 The City of La Porte will promote a strong and diverse economy that
strengthens the local sales tax and property tax base while also contributing to
a high quality of life.
ACTION REQUIRED BY CITY COUNCIL
Adopt Ordinance 2023-3951 authorizing the City Manager to execute a Water
Service Agreement between the City of La Porte and G&H Towing Company for
its tugboat docking facility at 3700 Old Hwy 146.
