3. PUBLIC HEARING WITH PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION TO
CONSIDER REQUEST FROM MR. DALE PORTER TO REZONE LOTS
1 THROUGH 16, BLOCK 1146, FROM RESIDENTIAL TO COMMERCIAL.
Mayor Thomas called to order the joint public hearing
with the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider
the request from Mr. Dale Porter to rezone Lots 1
through 16, Block 1146, from Residential to Commercial.
It was ascertained that notices to all property
owners within 200 feet of the property under considera-
tion for rezoning were mailed on July 16, 1974, and that
a Public Notice of this hearing was published in the
official newspaper of the City on July 18, 1974.
Mayor Thomas located the property in question on the map
as being located off Highway 146 between West L and
West M Streets.
Mayor Thomas asked if there was anyone opposed to the
rezoning that would like to speak. There being none,
• he asked if there was anyone to speak in favor of the
rezoning.

Mr. Walter Roberson, Chairman of the Planning and
Zoning Commission was recognized and stated that the
area in question in regard to rezoning is surrounded
by property owned by one individual, owning 324 acres,
who also has an application pending for the same
classification. The individual owns the entire area
except for two small outlots. The individuals property
runs from the railroad out to Highway 146 and south to
the city limit line. The pending application for rezoning
is for Commercial with Light Industry on Special Permit
on any plant that would go in.
Mayor Thomas asked if there were any other comments?
There being none, declared the hearing closed.
Since there was another piece of property to be considered
for rezoning, it was the consensus of opinion to hold the
hearing on the other property before the Planning and
Zoning Commission recessed to make their recommendation
and the Commission would vote on the property separately
after the recommendation was presented.

4. PUBLIC HEARING WITH PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION TO
CONSIDER REQUEST FROM MR. E. D. BARKER AND BERNICE BARKER
GALE TO REZONE 22.67 ACRES - TRACT 20, ABSTRACT 5 -
E. BRINSON SURVEY, FROM RESIDENTIAL TO COMMERCIAL.
Mayor Thomas called to order the joint public hearing
with the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider
the request from Mr. E. D. Barker and Bernice Barker
Gale to rezone 22.67 acres, Tract 20, Abstract 5,
E. Brinson Survey, from Residential to Commercial.
It was ascertained that notices to all property
owners within 200 feet of the property under considera-
tion for rezoning were mailed on July 16, 1974, and that
a public notice of this hearing was published in the
official newspaper of the City on July 18, 1974.
Mayor Thomas located the property in question on the map
showing the city limit line as the west boundary, the
railroad on the north, Lomax School Road on the south and
Highway 225 on the east.
• Mayor Thomas asked if there was anyone opposed to the
rezoning that would like to speak. There being none,
he asked if there was anyone to speak in favor of the
rezoning.
Mr. Elmer D. Barker was recognized. Mr. Barker stated
that he was also representing his sister, who was unable
to attend the hearing. Mr. Barker stated that this
property was just at the edge of La Porte and was
surrounded almost entirely by commercial property. On
the north is the railroad, which is Southern Pacific which
has land between there and 225; on the west is being used
for commercial property, you can see junk cars, which is
adjoining property with his. On the other side is one
acre which the Coastal Industrial Water Authority has
bought and plan to use this for their headquaters when
they start to lay their pipeline and will have all their
construction equipment in there. Across the road is
pasture land. He thanked the Commission for the opportunity
to speak.
Mayor Thomas explained to Mr. Barker that when an area
is annexed by La Porte, it automatically becomes R-1,
Residential. According to the zoning rules, the Planning
and Zoning Commission is suppose to go back and rezone

the newly annexed property to proper use. This would
include the Barker property and surrounding property.
He further stated that he was sorry that this had not
been done. At the present time, the City has an
ordinance that has a fee for rezoning. Mayor Thomas
stated that he and Mr. Roberson of the Planning and
Zoning Commission had discussed the matter and were
planning a work shop with the Commission and the
Planning and Zoning Commission to make revisions down
through the whole area. If the Commission was in
accord, after the revisions were made, he hoped to be
able to reimburse a portion of the rezoning fee.
Mayor Thomas further stated newly annexed property
owners were victims of circumstance and should not be
penalized for rezoning. But if after the first zoning
change, property owners would have to pay the fee.
Mr. Walter Roberson, Chairman of the Planning and
Zoning Commission was recognized and stated that a
• study was being made in the immediate area where
Mr. Barker's property is, and the ideas have not been
presented to the Commission, but proposed a 1500 foot
border or the city limit line on the west, all the way
down to Spencer Highway; proposed to go on the east
side to 16th Street. He further stated that although
this had no bearing on the property in question, he
wanted to give an idea of the extent of the proposed
change going from 225 all the way down to Spencer on
the west side. On the east side we propose to go
from 225 all the way down to Fairmont Parkway, which is
approximately 1500 feet, or to the 16th Street line.
This would all be made Commercial property which forms
a border against the railroad and allows them to build
commercial in there and propose to add Light Industry
with Special Permit Only for any application for any
plant that is built in this district will come back
before it can be built will have to apply for a special
permit to build anything in the manufacturing area
and we still have the control. First it comes before
the Planning and Zoning Commission; next it goes to
the building inspector; and then it comes back to the
Commission for approval for any permit in that district.
Mr. Roberson stated that he wanted to inform everyone
what was being worked on and what they were going to
• ask the Commission to work with them on.
• •
• Regular Meeting - 8/5/74 - Continued
Mayor Thomas asked if there was anyone else desiring

for rezoning.

12. APPROVE PAYMENT TO LAKE ROOFING FOR REPAIRS TO LA PORTE
CIVIC CENTER ROOF - Mayor Thomas stated that after the
work was completed on the roof and an inspection made, it
appeared that the roof was still leaking. He asked
Mr. Broussard to bring the Commission up to date on what
the discussion was and what the contractor had agreed to
do.
Mr. Broussard stated that the leak occuring on that
particular day was not coming from the roof, but from
above the doors where a crack was. The contractor
agreed to caulk around the doors, plus additional work
around the air conditioner, where we would possibly have
a problem in the near future; if the City would buy the
material, he would do the work while he was there. The
material amounted to $50.00. The contractor was asked
to go ahead and do the work.
The contractor pointed out, where we were having complica-
tions with the pollution control equipment, up on the top,
where people were climbing up on top of the building, a
• portion was being torn up and recommended that a ladder
be put across the wall where men won't be jumping across
the wall, coming down on the roof so hard. A ladder is
supposed to be put up there.
Mayor Thomas read two memos:. where inspections had been
made of the roof and found to be in compliance with the

Mayor Thomas stated that the proposed public hearing
to be held on September 13, 1974, that La Porte was
to host had been changed. He stated that he received
a telephone call from Mr. Thomasson in Austin and it
was the consensus of opinion that the hearing should
be held in Houston since Mayor Hofheinz had taken
the stand in favor of this. He further stated that
there would probably be better city participation and
have much more effect with the hearing being held in
Houston. Mayor Thomas felt we were most fortunate
to have the City of Houston in agreement in trying to
get a Utility Commission formed.
Mr. Askins suggested that Mayor Thomas try and get on
the agenda at the hearing. Mayor Thomas stated that
he had been extended an invitation to get on the agenda
to speak.

• 16. ACCEPTANCE OF BAY POINTE (GARDEN WALK) SUBDIVISION -
PROJECT - SOUTH SIDE - Mayor Thomas read a letter from

Walk) Subdivision Project, South Side, with the exception
that proper arrangements be made with the City and the
Light Company for the installation of street lights on
the north side. A copy of said letter is attached and
made part of these minutes.

were being paid for by the developer, but not any on the
north side.

at the subdivision project and numerous City officials
had talked to the Wallace Johnson Enterprises, and had
been assured that the garbage would be cleaned up.

17. DISCUSSION OF DEPARTMENT PROJECTS - Commissioner
i o eaux s a e a severa companies had been
contacted in regard to bids for meters on the south
side of Highway 146. Only one had been received, but
expected to hear from two other companies within the
next week.
12
Mayor Thomas stated that he had talked with Mr. Morton
and it was their opinion that if Mr. Morton could spare
Mr. Pat Graves and hire two other men, the City could
do the work much cheaper than by going to contractors.
The work could be done on a day to day basis and would
not exceed the $2,000.00 in any one project. Mr. Graves
would be in a better position to know where the meters
should be put to be most advantageous to the City.
It was determined that 50 foot of line would be run
on each house and 115 meters were to be set. Mr. Morton
was instructed to figure the cost of renting a trencher
compared to buying one, possibly a good used trencher.
There was a brief discussion concerning the use of copper
line compared to using poly-ethylene line. Mr. Busch
recommended using copper line. It was determined that
copper would be used for the taps and under the roads, but
the service lines would be PVC.
(B) Mayor Thomas stated that he had Mr. Morton talk to
Lumus Dodge on the Garbage Truck and it was scheduled to
be in San Antonio on August 10th. The two Dump Trucks
(International) are to be made on August 7th.
(C) Mr. Price stated that since the Commission voted
to rezone Lots 1 through 16, Block 1146, Mr. Cam}~bell
was anxious to start building. There was a brief discussion
regarding topping of a street in the block. Mr. Price
stated that he had informed Mr. Campbell that if the
developer would buy the base the City would furnish labor
•
• Regular Meeting - 8/5/74 - Continued
to put the base down and smooth it out. It was
determined that the developer would probably use
"L" Street. There was further discussion stating
that the policy in the past had been for 28 foot
wide streets with 8 inch base.
13
(D) Mr. A. J. Busch requested to be placed on a
work shop agenda to discuss capital improvements,
EPA Grants, In-Flow - Infiltration Analysis and
miscellaneous projects. Mayor Thomas asked Mr. Busch
to be prepared to be on the work shop scheduled for
August 14, 1974 at 7:00 P.M.

SUBJECT: La Porte Civic Center Roof
After careful inspection of roof by Larry Morton,
K. J. Cook, John Klein and myself we found all work
to be in compliance with bid agreement with one
exception; that being the replacement of the
gravel guard on front porch of building. Where
the flashing comes together we feel this area
needs to be sealed better.

BAY POINTE (GARDEN WALK) FINAL INSPECTION-'SECTION I
Gentlemen, Larry Morton, Carlos Smith and I made a final inspection of
the referenced project today.
We found that the sanitary sewer collection system, the water distri-
~ bution system, the drainage system and the streets have been constructed
in accordance with the City of La Porte's subdivision ordinance and the
plans previously approved by the commission for this project. Street
lights have been installed for all of the area in which buildings have
been constructed. Street lights have not been installed in the northerly
portion of Section I in which no building construction has been started.
It is my understanding that proper arrangements have been made with the
City and the Light Company for the installation of the street lights
upon completion of additional buildings in the northerly portion.
With the noted exception, I recommend that the City Commission give
approval to the referenced development.
