FINAL ESTIMATE - AIRPORT SANITARY SEWER LINE - JOB NO. 76-1320
The referenced project has been completed, and our inspection
revealed all work to be done satisfactorily and in accordance
with the Plans and Specifications.
There is an underrun of $2,648.69 because the estimated amount
of 6" line was more than that actually required. The total
• project cost then is $31,590.29, and the final payment due at
this time is $6,757.15. The attached affidavit certifies that
the contractor has paid all labor and material bills.
You will recall that the Texas Air National Guard is going to
participate in the project to a maximum of about $22,000.00,
the exact amount to be negotiated. The attached letter to Major
Stepchinski outlines the cost of that portion of the line up to
their service tap. The contractor also installed the ANG service
line which is 100% their cost. Action on the part of the ANG has
been delayed for some reason, and Major Stepchinski is going to
attempt to get something moving as soon as possible.

SANITARY SEWER SERVICE FOR TEXAS ANG AT LA PORTE MUNICIPAL AIRPORT
This will amplify our telephone conversation of October 28, 1976.
The following list itemizes the cost of that portion of the sanitary
sewer line required to bring service to the ANG's tap:
1. 60 L.F. 8" P.V.C. Pipe augered under Spencer $ 795.00
• 2. 1192 L.F. 8" V.C. Pipe in open trench 8'-10' cut 8,808.88
3. 80 L.F. 8" V.C. Pipe augered under building
and drive 1,031.20
4. 500 L.F. 8" V.C. Pipe in open trench 6'-8' cut 3,195.00
5. 40 L.F. 6" V.C. Pipe augered under drive 399.20
6. 335 L.F. 6" V.C. Pipe in open trench 6'-8' cut 1,668.30
7. 5 Manholes 3,000.00
- 8. 8 Vert. feet extra depth for manhole 600.00
9. 1 6 x 6 wye for ANG tap 15.29
10. 204 C.Y. road shell for drive repair 3,060.00
11. 103 S.Y. repair of asphalt drives 1,545.00
Total construction cost to ANG tap $24,117.87:
The cost of the complete project was $31,590.29, as seen in the
attached final pay order. The ratio between the above itemized
cost and this total is 0.76 and can be used to apportion the
engineering fee, surveying and inspection costs as follows:
Engineering fee - 2211.32 x 0.76 $1,680.60
Surveying Cost - 699.10 x 0.76 531.32
Inspection Cost - 3316.40 x 0.76 2,520.46
Total engineering costs for ANG $4,732.38
• Page Two - Letter to Department of the Air Force 10-28-76
This would make the total amount subject to negotiation with the
City of La Porte equal to $28,850.25.
The contractor installed 60 feet of 6" service line from the main
line and tied it into the ANG's system. The cost of this work
was $298.80 and should be borne 100% by the ANG funds.
If you have any questions concerning this information, give me a
call.

Attention: Mr. George Sharp, Jr:_

Dear George:
Enclosed is my check for $400.00 for 1974 and 19'75 taxes of
Blocks 432 & 980 in La Porte. If this is not enough, please
bill me for the difference.
Please review and reassess my property since I do not consider
my taxes to be fair and equitable.
Let my review my experience for you.
1. I bought the property 5 years ago, and have paid City,
County, and School taxes ever since.
2. As an absentee property owner I accept "taxation without
representation" as a fact of life.
3. In 1974 1 requested zoning from "residential" to "commercial"
in order to sell or utilize the property. I was refused
with no reason given. Via the "grapevine" I was told that
the City Council was afraid I might open a whorehouse, a
dynamite factory, or something else that-, would be object-
ionable. So therefore in order to get it rezoned I should
come in with a plan for use.

Mr. George Sharp, Jr. 27.10.76
M
4. In 1976 I again requested rezoning. This time with a
reputable buyer who wanted the property for warehouses
(a logical use since it is near the growing port). Again
I was refused, by the Planning & Zoning Commisssion, with
the public explanation that "there was already enough
commercial property available, and they would not rezone
any more until some bf the current property was developed".
5. In 5 years I have had no interest from residential buyers or
developers. It does not have water, sewer, or a location
which would interest anyone in wanting to live there. Also
the LISD School Board is "up to their ears in students" and
do not really want a large apartment complex built there,
or even a bunch of houses.
6. It looks like my only hope is to pitch a tent on the property,
raise hogs (because everyone likes porkchops) and.walk to the
closest friendly neighbor when we need water or want to go
to the bathroom.
If you can shed any light on the situation I would appreciate
hearing from you.

Gentlemen•
Several years ago I purchased some property in La Porte as an investment
with the intent of reselling it. It is the lots in Block 432 and Block
980. Block 980 is currently zoned Residential, and Block 432 is split
(Residential and Commercial).
I respect►ally request rezoning o; this property to Commercial for several
good reasons, i.e.:
1. It would increase the tax revenues for the City of La Porte.
2. It is not a location where people would want residential
property because it is too close to the Part of Houston
container terminal at Barbour's Cut.
3. it would help me sell the property to a user, who would
In turn bring business to La Porte and tax revenues.
Your favorable action on this is respectfully requested.
Sincerely.

REPORT ON AVAILABILITY OF WATER AND SEWAGE SERVICE TO PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
NORTH OF SPENCER AND IMMEDIATELY WEST OF THE AIRPORT
The proposed development consists of 177 acres of land expected to yield
679 lots. The developer expects to complete and sell 200 homes per year.
Service with water to such a development would be no problem. There is an
adequate supply in the Fairmont Park system.
Domestic waste collection and treatment is not available in great capacity;
. however, there is a 15-inch sanitary sewer line on the west side of Big
Island Slough extending from Spencer Highway to the treatment plant on
Fairmont Parkway. The capacity of this line is about 1.96 cubic feet
per second. At the development rate proposed, .27 cfs would be added per
year to the present load of .418 cfs. At this rate, the collection system
would be adequate throughout the development and would ultimately be
conveying some 1.268 cfs.
The limiting factor in the situation is the Fairmont Park Sewage Treatment
Plant. It has a treatment capacity of .580 mgd and is presently
loaded with .225 mgd, leaving an available capacity of .355 mgd. The
proposed development will add .175 mgd per year and a quick addition shows
the plant will handle the load the first and second years and sometime in
the third year it would become overloaded.
So far, only the development of one vacant tract has been considered. There
is a total of some 340 more acres of vacant land in two tracts which would
fall in the service area of the Fairmont Park Treatment Plant and the 15-inch
collection line which we have discussed. We do not know when either of
these tracts might develop or, for that matter, when the subject tract would
actually need service. The full development of either of the other two
tracts would overload the collection system, not to mention the treatment
plant.

The City, of course, must bear in mind the strong possibility of
receiving the requested EPA 92-500 grant in the next year or two.
If this should happen, the new system which would be built would be
fully sufficient to handle any and all development of the vacant
lands which we have considered.
In view of these conditions, about the only attitude the City can
adopt at this point is "first come, first serve" up to the capacity
of the available facilities.
