The problem is LITTER. We have a major litter problem on our two major east-west thoroughfares, Fairmont Parkway and Spencer Highway. State Highway 146 is also heavily littered. Some of the litter is being deposited by those just "passing through" the city and some of it is wind-blown from other sites. Some of it is being deposited by our citizens, and it is everywhere you look around our city, from the biggest to the smallest street! Too often we have grown complacent and have not paid attention to our own actions as well as those of others, and our litter problem has grown. We're ready to turn the tables on Litter in La Porte. You may not know that La Porte is a "Keep Texas Beautiful" city. The La Porte Parks & Recreation Department is sponsoring a City-Wide "Don't Mess with TEXAS Trash-Off' on April 10th here in La Porte. The "Don't Mess with Texas Trash-Off' is the single largest one day cleanup event in the state and serves as Texas' signature event for the Great American Cleanup, the nation's largest community improvement program, held annually from March 1 through May 31. In 2009, more than 25,200 bags of trash were collected, totaling more than 158 tons of waste. Beginning at 8:30am at the Evelyn Kennedy Civic Center, located at 618 San Jacinto, Parks staff will begin registering groups who are interested in helping pick up. Each registered group will receive trash bags, bright Orange T-shirts to wear, and safety instructions (up to the first 200 persons). Then at 9:00am, the whistle will blow and everyone will head out to where they think the La Porte trash is. At 11:30-11:45am all the groups will return with their collections. The bags City of La Porte Parksandrec@laportetx.aov will be weighed, vests turned in, and then everyone will hang around for free pizza, soft drinks, music, and PRIZES! There will be GREAT prizes: · "Most Trash Picked Up by a Group" (by weight) 1st Place - $150 Gift Certificate · "Most Trash Picked Up by a Group" (by weight) 2nd Place - $100 Gift Certificate · "Most Trash Picked Up by a Group" (by weight) 3rd Place - $75 Gift Certificate · "Most Unusual Piece of Trash Picked up by a Group - $50 Gift Certificate The minimum size group is five members. You can come up with catchy names; use your church or organization name, Booster Club, volunteer plant group, or service club name to register. We have groups already interested in participating and we would like to encourage your group to do so too! The city has worked hard and spent a lot of money over the past several years, to improve the way La Porte looks. Now we are asking you to help us improve even more by getting your favorite group together and coming out to help your fellow citizens on April1Dth. So, jf your group is interested in participating, please contact your Parks & Recreation Department at 281.470.7275 or by email at parksandrec@Japortetx.Rov . Each member of each group must fill out a waiver when registering. Registration forms and waivers are available on the City's Website under Parks & Recreation; www.laportetx.Rov . Together we can make a HUGE difference, and continue to make La Porte a better, more attractive city to live in and work in. Give us a call, or "Come on Out" April 10th ! ### City of La Porte Parksandrec@laoortetx.aov /-'--.

We have checked with our auditors and, though they don't recommend the change, they do not see any accounting principal issues with making the move. -- B Council Retreat April 10, 2010 Subject: Concrete Street Program Councilman Moser has requested that we consider establishing a concrete street program, replacing asphalt streets with concrete. Attached are some general observations from Steve Gillett regarding implementing this program. CONCRETE STREET PROGRAM The replacement of asphalt streets and open ditch drainage with concrete curb and gutter streets and underground drainage presents many planning, engineering and funding challenges. Listed below are some of the considerations to move forward with a program oftrus type. . Curb and gutter concrete streets are typically six (6) to twelve (12) inches below natural ground. When completed, the street becomes part of the drainage system. Increased street flooding is to be expected. . Because of the lower elevation, underground storm sewers must be several feet below existing surface drainage. The storm sewer system must not only carry water from the street and surrounding properties, but must also outfall to a suitable surface drainage system. Because of the location of the street, this outfall system could be some distance from the actual street, which can increase the cost of the storm sewer to several times the actual cost to construct the concrete street. . If the Program is to be ongoing, the outfall structures and trunk storm sewers must be sized and placed to serve a large area. In the beginning, these oversize storm sewers must be designed and constructed to meet the ultimate needs of the area. This will cause the initial cost of storm sewer construction to increase. . The need for detention to accommodate the new storm sewer system is also a consideration. This could be difficult to site in developed areas. . Concrete street construction, excluding drainage, is 3-5 times the cost of asphalt street construction. . Concrete streets, while not maintenance free, have a longer life span than asphalt streets. Asphalt streets typically last about 10 years. Concrete streets have a life span of 30-50 years, depending on design, construction and maintenance. . Funding for a program such as this can take several forms. With the large, initial drainage costs in the initial stage, the use of the street maintenance tax would not be feasible in the initial stages of the program. Other funding methods are bonds, certificates of obligation and assessment of adjoining properties. . Selection of candidate streets should be based on traffic, property owners served and other engineering considerations, including drainage outfall issues. Because the drainage issue will initially be the most expensive component and present the greatest planning and engineering challenges, it is recommended that the program begin with the design and construction of trunk storm sewers in target areas, followed by phased design and construction of concrete curb and gutters streets and associated drainage. c ,,/"-- ,..-.

Attached is an estimate for this project, $539,486. Steve Gillett feels that we can work this into next year's street maintenance tax program, since concrete streets are up in the rotation, assuming that the street maintenance tax is reapproved by the voters in May. ...~ ~ o 0.. 5 \.I- o ~ (.) uii ~I- ~o _l- I- m III en tx:. lli z C5 m 1(5 0::. 0- t: z =' . ! i:G ~ ~ u.1 ~e 0.2- O-g ~ e~)( =' oel- ,- 0 't)o~ :l~O J:#Glo.

The school district has requested that we close the E Street right-of-way and turn it over to them. CLOSING G STREEET BETWEEN ARIZONA AND TEXAS STREETS Analysis of the effects of closure or alternative use of E street ROW LPISD owns over 90 acres in their central facilities campus. It is comprised of the three schools; the High School, Junior High and Elementary at their tri-campus property. There is only one improved public roadway crossing the LPISD acreage (G Street). The following analysis summarizes the impacts of closing G Street or utilizing E Street as an alternative: . 2006 traffic counts indicate an average daily traffic count on G Street of 1730. . Closing of G street without an alternative access would force all east - west vehicular traffic in the areq, including emergency vehicles, around the entire campusT creating a superblock that would affect trip routing of both Original La Porte and the East End area. . The distance from the C Street (nearest crossing at north end of campus) to Fairmont along Broadway would be .6 miles. Along San Jacinto the distance would be .75 miles. . If someone wanted to get from G Street and Broadway to G Street and San Jacinto, the trip is now approximately}.l of a mile. Upon closure the same trip would be would be over a mile to the south and nearly a mile to the north. If E street were used as an alternative route, the following observations are presented: . G street is already an improved roadway, the public is used to its current configuration. . Constructing E street would impact an existing LPISD sports track. . G Street maintains an intersection witl1 San Jacinto at a strategic I-ocation (the park/pool}. . On Broadway, E would be a logical mid-point between Main and Fairmont, however, C and G are currently signalized and are equally distributed in thirds from Main to Fairmont (seems to work well in the Broadway corridor). . As to area-wide traffic routing, it provides an east/west interconnection mid-way through LP1SD property (as opposed to E street being only two blocks south of C Street and about six blocks north of Park Street). . Both E and G have water utilities, but E only has the line east of Arizona ROW. Outright abandonment is not possible without relocation, but I don't believe LPISD is worried about acquiring full underground rights here (we could abandon save and except appropriate easements). . E street is a new concrete curb and gutter street further to the east which also provides an uninterrupted connection to Bayside Drive. .. ~ /?!~~:\ .. \\)~,( ~' . " :. ("2\tt .'.~1~ ~\ :~.

The City's Comprehensive Plan is scheduled for it's five year update this year, which would be a good time to update the Northside Plan and perhaps incorporate it, in one form or another, into the Comprehensive Plan. Preparing for Tomorrow by Planning Today Comprehensive Plan Update, 2000-2020 The La Porte 2020 Comprehensive Plan is an official public document that acts as a general guide for how the City should grow and operate over a 20 year interval. The Comprehensive Plan plays many important roles in shaping the future of the community by: . Serving as a general "guideline" for future development and redevelopment in and around the City with an emphasis on improving the community's desirability as a place to live, work, play and shop. . Documenting the character of the community, as well as anticipated issues, trends, opportunities, and challenges facing the City. · Providing a common vision supported by a series of goals and objectives. · Defining policies to guide daily decision-making regarding the City's physical and economic growth. · Establishing strategies for aggressive implementation that emphasize action and results. The Authority to Plan Though Texas state law does not require all municipalities to maintain a comprehensive plan, cities that adopt zoning regulations must do so "in accordance with a comprehensive plan." (Texas Local Government Code S 211.004). 2020 Comprehensive Plan . Serves as the officially adopted guide for City policy decisions relating to the physical growth and economic development of La Porte through 2020, including discussion of opportunities and challenges, vision, goals, actions, policies, and strategies. Addresses a variety of elements, including Land Use, Community Profile, Transportation, Parks and Recreation, Housing/Residential Development, Beautification and Conservation, Public Safety, Utility Infrastructure Systems, Redevelopment Strategy and Implementation. Focuses upon a broad range of issues and opportunities that impact public health, welfare, and safety that can range from access to parks to disaster preparedness. Addresses a variety of issues in a general and long term manner to assist in determining general locations for revitalization, new growth, road and infrastructure improvements, parks, and other public facilities. . . . · Recognizes that actions in one area, such as extension of roads and utilities, can have impacts in other areas, such as increased development pressure or need for additional services. · Is geographically comprehensive. On a large scale, the plan considers the entire City, as well as the surrounding planning area including Industrial Districts. On a smaller scale, the plan builds upon and enhances the relationship among areas within the City limits, such as neighborhoods, commercial centers, major intersections, recreational activity centers and other notable places, i.e. Sylvan Beach and Historic Main Street District. The Comprehensive Plan is designed to be evaluated and amended regularly to maintain its applicability as issues and priorities of the community evolve. The entire plan should be revisited every five years, at minimum, for a "fresh look" at key issues, goals, actions, and policies. At that time, the plan should be revised as needed to ensure that it still reflects the true values and direction of the City's governing body and community. 5-year Update La Porte 2020 Comprehensive Plan 5-Year Update was prepared in accordance with a goal which identifies the Plan as a principal part of the City's overall planning process involving all facets of the Community and requiring, as a minimum, an update every five years to ensure that it reflects the true vision and directiorl of the community. For the 5-year update, a Comprehensive Plan Review Committee was formed to review the plan in its entirety. The charge of the committee was to update the goals and objective to reflect progress and accomplishments, identify goals that require attention or remove "action" items that have already been accomplished; incorporate updated data and findings from recently completed studies and plans; and ensure that the Comprehensive Plan is a current reflection of the community. The methodology incorporated a complete review of all the chapters within the Plan, input from the general public, independent analysis by the committee members and information gathered from the various interviews with all department heads as well as Economic Development Coordinators and Emergency Management Response personnel. Upon completion of their review, the Comprehensive Plan Review Committee forwarded a final draft of the La Porte 2020 Comprehensive Plan 5- Year Update to the Planning and Zoning Commission for consideration at the April 20, 2006, meeting. City Council, at the June 12,2006, meeting, approved the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan 5-year update. to-year Update It is now time to perform another 5-year update of the Comprehensive Plan. The first 5-year update was performed in house and now we are 10 years into the 2020 Comprehensive Plan. During this 10 years period, there have been significant changes and other major activities occurred. This halfway journey of Comprehensive Plan is vital aspect of the community's vision to respond to new ideas and directions as the City progresses, changes, and grow. As communities face growth-related challenges, a need for professional planning services arises. The Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) has introduced PlanSource, a program designed to assist local governments in reducing costs and streamlining the procurement process. PlanSource is a cooperative purchasing program for planning services, i.e. comprehensive plan, land use, transportation, parks and recreations, economic development, feasibility studies and VISIOnIng. Earlier this year, a representative from H-GAC met with staff to expedite the PlanSource functions and its credibility. The City can utilize the H-GAC resources to find a consultant or the firm to accomplish this important Comprehensive Plan update. In addition, the Northside Neighborhood Plan, adopted in 2000, is a separate document that could undergo a review alongside the Comprehensive Plan. The Northside Neighborhood Plan could be incorporated as a component of the Comprehensive Plan. Northside Neighborhood Plan Update - 2010 Background: The Northside neighborhood is part of the original Town of La Porte founded in 1892. The neighborhood is laid out in the typical grid pattern streets. The Northside neighborhood is surrounded on four sides by commercial properties and various businesses that are commercial and industrial in nature. To the north is Barbour's Cut Boulevard, a major truck route within the City for truck traffic headed towards Port of Houston's Barbour's Cut Terminal. The main activities along Barbour's Cut Boulevard are shipping container storage areas, trucking dispatch, maintenance and other port related activities. The western border is North 8th Street, which abuts State Highway 146 and its frontage road. On the eastern side is North Broadway Street. Both Broadway and 8th Streets display a mixture of residential and business uses along with scattered parcels of vacant land. The southern boundary of the neighborhood comprises La Porte's historic Main Street District, which offers a variety of retail stores, antique shops, restaurants, and other small businesses. The social fabric of the Northside neighborhood is strong. Residents share a pride in the accomplishment of community facilities such as Jennie Riley Center, De Walt School, and other recreational indoor and outdoor activities. Despite its relatively small size, the Northside neighborhood has several churches indicating a firm spiritual foundation in the community. The neighborhood is also a home of the La Porte Community Civic Club, an all-volunteer grassroots association that has organized regular clean up campaigns, Juneteenth Celebrations, ball games in the park, and other social recreational activities that have enriched the lives of many residents. The Northside neighborhood possesses an abundance of assets that can serve as the basis for renewal and revitalization of this neighborhood. Northside Neighborhood Plan: The plan serves as the officially adopted guide for City policy decisions relating to the physical growth and neighborhood revitalization of North side community. A visioning process was conducted to develop community consensus on the goals and objectives that form the framework for the Northside Neighborhood Plan. City Council appointed a committee, whose members comprised Northside neighborhood residents and representatives from the nearby business community. The committee members reviewed various concerns and issues faced by the community. The community leaders discussed to identify issues, determine the assets and challenges of the community, and prepare goals, objectives and list recommended actions anticipated to shape and define the future and quality of life in the Northside neighborhood. The committee's preferred goals, strategies and actions are as follows: 1 st Priority Goal: Better Quality of Life for Northside Neighborhood . Decrease places where crimes occur . Make changes that lead to a safer environment . Build a strong system to support housing, jobs, and business opportunities . Strengthen community assets and shared vision . Fight street crimes . Involve owner/manager and residents of apartment complex . Increase police presence in the neighborhood . Increase citizen/police communication and cooperation 2nd Priority Goal: New Affordable Housing for Northside . Encourage new affordable housing . Attract new home buyers to neighborhood . Make community commitment to neighborhood improvement 3rd Priority Goal: A More Beautiful Northside . Beautify residences and businesses . Beautify public facilities . Beautify the neighborhood boundaries 4th Priority Goal: Better Northside Infrastructure . Improve infrastructure conditions . Improve public transportation Presentation and Adoption of the Plan: As the plan progressed, the consultant reviewed its contents and received suggestions for revisions, additions, and priorities from the committee members and staff. The planning process spread over several months concluding with a summary presentation to City Council at the retreat held July 08, 2000. Subsequent to the retreat, the draft plan was presented to the Northside community at a townhall meeting at the Jennie Riley Community Center on July 13, 2000. City Council adopted the Northside Neighborhood Plan on September 08, 2000. Plan Update: It is now time to perform an update of the Northside Neighborhood Plan, which is almost 10 years old document.

In addition, the Northside Neighborhood Plan, adopted in 2000, is a separate document that could undergo a review alongside the Comprehensive Plan update.

K .,,"'- Council Retreat April 10, 2010 Subject: 80 acre deed restrictions As we've previously discussed with council since the 80 acre property that is owned by the city off of Bay Area Boulevard is not inside the city limits, when we sell the property we will lose "control" of what is developed on the property, unless we place deed restrictions on the property. Please consider what deed restrictions would be appropriate for the property. Consideration of Covenants/Restrictions 80.97 Acre Tract in Bavport As discussed in a previous executive session, if Council wishes to place any restrictions/covenants on the 80.97 acres we need to decide prior to marketing of the tract. Obviously, the more restrictions placed on the property affects the ability to market the tract. The property is in La Porte's Bayport Industrial District and therefore is not subject to any City regulations. It is covered by covenants placed on it by Friendswood Development Corporation, which by today's standards are not particularly restrictive. The following items are presented to Council to initiate conversation regarding potential restrictions: .- . Hazardous Waste . Medical Waste . Incineration . Container Storage (Open Storage) · Height? · Buffer? i.e. 50', 75', etc; front, rear, sides ..N. r' w. . r. . , L .- .- ------------- Council Retreat April 10, 2010 Subject: Code Enforcement Councilman Moser has requested that council discuss the operations of the Code Enforcement department.

Counter Service: Were you greeted promptly and in a pleasant manner? Were you treated respectfully and professionally? Did we answer all of your questions? Plan ReviewlInspections: Were you present during the inspection? Were the inspectors professional and respectful during the plan review? Was the inspector professional and respectful during the inspection? Did the inspector discuss or explain any code requirements that may be needed?

At our last staff retreat we came up with the following for Council's consideration: Positioning La Porte for success by embracing our heritage, community values, and future opportunities. The current Mission Statement is: TO be recognized as one of the top three municipal corporations within the state of Texas, To strive for excellence at all levels and to perform our duties with confidence, creativity, and innovation, TO maintain the trust of the community in delivering public service programs timely and effectively, To grow progressively with the community and to be responsible for the well being of our employees. B 5 Year Capital Improvements Projects It has been several years since we have reviewed our multi-year Capital Improvements Program with City Council. The Project List is derived from several sources: > The Comprehensive Plan > Other Master Planning Documents > City Council Input and Direction > Staff Input > Joint Ventures with other agencies/developer driven > Place holders for future projects The attached list does not include ongoing projects or projects funded this fiscal year (FY 09-10). The list will be further refined as we go through the budget process. The refinement will obviously include a review of anticipated annual revenues which can be devoted to capital projects and will affect the prioritization of projects. Some projects do not have cost estimates and some are outdated. These will also be reviewed and adjusted during the budget process. ,.~- g 0 0 0 0 8 0 0 g 0 8 0 0 g 8 0 8 8 8 8 8 0 g g 0 g g g g 0 g. g 0 g - 0 0 .0 .

Attached is information on TML, as well as their proposal. In addition, I have attached the formula that I presented to the Chapter 172 committee for their comment. The idea of a formula was well received, but they wanted to place a cap on the amount of increase for the employees per year. They also wanted to review the formula that was presented for possible modifications. IJ CJ) 1:: o D.. ca ..J .... o ~ ... .- en a..

OIl( ....a ~ e >- ....a ~ ~ C) ~ Medical contribution formula: Currently the medical contributions for the city and for the employee are determined without adhering to any particular formula. Instead arbitrary amounts are used, which typically place the burden more on the city than the employee, but without a formula the employees could also be asked to bear more. To address this issue I am proposing the following formula to clarify the contributions of both parties; that will also give the employee's more "ownership" of the health fund. Calculate three year average claims: Take the previous two years claims history, plus the current year's claims forecast and divide by three. City's cost: 80% of the three year average claims: Plus 100% L TO contributions, 100% wellness costs, and 100% of the percent of salaries that is charged to the fund. Employee's cost: 20% of the three year average claims. NOTE: An estimated end-of-year fund balance will be calculated based on the fund balance at the time of the calculation, plus any additional revenues forecast to the end-of-year, less claims forecast to the end-of-year, less any additional expenses forecast through the end-of-year (wellness, LTD, etc.). lfthe estimated end-of-year fund balance exceeds the three year average claims requirement, the excess will be used to reduce the employee's contribution. Example: Current Fund Balance: $1,000,000 Estimated Fund Balance: $1,300,000 2 years previous claims: $1,200,000 1 years previous claims: $1,400,000 Current year's estimated claims: $1,000,000 Three years average claims: ($1,200,000 + $1,400,000 + $1,000,000)/3 = $1,200,000 Excess amount: $1,300,000 - $1,200,000 = $100,000 City's contribution for claims: 80% * $1,200,000 = $960,000 Employee's contribution: 20% * $1,200,000 = $240,000 $240,000 - $100,000 = $140.000 G RECLASSIFICATION OF ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN TO ENGINEERING PROJECT MANAGER The Engineering Division of the Planning Department has a budgeted but unfilled position entitled Engineering Technician. The position consists of drafting tasks, utility verifications, driveway culverts, address assignment, flood plain determinations, etc. It is complimented by another similar position which is filled at this time. With the advent of computer aided drafting (CAD} and Geographical Information Systems (GIS} technology, the need for the same amount of technical engineering support in these areas has decreased over the last several years due to better technology and higher productivity. In contrast, the need for additional assistance for the City Engineer has increased due to federal/state mandates and increases in quantity of design requests. The recent storm Water Quality issues that are now required to be managed by the city and the vastly increased attention allocated to drainage improvements have affected the rate at which in-house design/engineering components can be carried out. The project management aspects of the increased workload as well as design implementation/coordination are the key impact to our engineering productivity. For a city the size of laPorte, it is not uncommon to have only one staff member responsible for specified aspects of departmental operations. To ensure appropriate redundancy of staff, cross training is being utilized for many tasks. However, because civil engineering designs require the seal of a Registered Professional Engineer, it can only be accomplished by our city engineer (an RPE), or a consultant with an RPE on staff. Ideally, the sought position would be a registered Professional Engineer with project management and contractor procurement experience, but alternatively, should at least have the ability to design infrastructure projects that could be reviewed/sealed under the supervision of the City Engineer, and coordinate and manage the entire project implementation. Such a reclassification would free up the City Engineer to concentrate on the taking on additional in-house projects thereby reducing the need for some consulting, and ensuring a more effective and timely delivery of product. en c o 'w 'S; o c o 13 Q) .....a.

[One is located in a low-density residential (R-l); two are in General Commercial (GC); two are located in the Main Street District (MSD) and the fmal one is located in a Light Industrial (LI) zone.] · In February, the Planning & Zoning Commission advised staff that they felt limiting the containers to an "HI" zone, as the regulations currently read is appropriate and they do not feel a change is needed. · The individuals with the containers utilize them for accessory storage; however, none were able to provide staff with a copy of a building permit that authorized the initial placement. In addition, city records do not show the issuance of a permit. · Individuals have requested we consider an option to keep the containers in place. They agree to obtain a permit, ensure the containers are properly placed in accordance with city regulations (relocate as needed), and install siding/roof that will make the container look more like an accessory building. · Staff is asking City Council for direction in addressing this issue. Shipping Containers Page 2 The actual regulations are attached for reference and are as follows: Definition: Shipping containers means sealable shipping containers, designed for intermodal transportation, either with or without a permanent qfftxed chassis, used in intrastate, interstate and international commerce for the shipment of goods and merchandise.

Shipping Containers Page 5 DIV. 4. FENCING AND LANDSCAPING REQUIREMENTS Sec. 106-800. Landscaping. (d) Landscaping/screening for shipping container facilities. (1) The property owner or tenant shall provide a natural screening. This will be accomplished in one of three ways. a. Leave in place existing trees, vegetation, underbrush, etc. to provide a thorough, continuous and effective opaque visual screening of the shipping container development. b. Construct earthen berms with a combination of trees, shrubs, and ground cover that after three years will be at least 20 feet in height and creates a continuous visual screen. c. Develop a screening plan that would be approved by the city that includes a combination of trees, shrubs, and ground cover that after three years will be at least 20 feet in height and creates a continuous visual screen. (2) The property owner or tenant will provide screening along the frontage of the site and along the side yards for a distance of 50 feet. In the advent that the site is adjacent to a commercial or residential use, the screening shall be required for the entire length of the adjacent yard area. (3) All required screening shall be adjusted away from overhead power lines to allow for full maturity of the trees without unnecessary trimming or topping of the trees.

Specifically, I would like to discuss moving the fence back and landscaping along Spencer. Also, putting some process in place for the upkeep of the hangers, which look pretty ragged. K Council Retreat April 10, 2010 Subject: Public Art In last weeks Friday memo I asked the council if you had a problem with us moving forward with the mermaid statue at the Town Plaza. 1 heard from Councilman Rigby that he felt that council had said no to the mermaid statue. It is my recollection that council was ambivalent to the mermaid idea, with Georgia being vocally opposed. Regardless, 1 suggested that we discuss this item at the retreat and Councilman Rigby agreed. Since the time that we discussed the mermaid idea with council we tried to enlist the aid of the High School art class to help us with some ideas, but nothing came of it. We also asked the artist to provide us with some additional ideas and they were poorly received (block letters spelling out La Porte). The artist, David Adickes is very well known - for such pieces as Sam Houston on 1-45. People would come to La Porte just to see his art.
