November 24, 1976
Mr. J. J. Mesa
Mayor, City of La Porte
P. 0. Box 1115
La Porte, Texas 77571
Dear J. J.:
It was certainly a pleasure to meet with you and council member Kline on the 11th.
I have enclosed a copy of my letter to the County Engineer, Richard P. Doss, re-
Questing a traffic study of Spencer at Farrington. There will be additional ma-
• terial applied to the surface at the intersection Spencer at Underwood early next
year. Hopefully the modifications to the signal which will allow for protected
left turn from Spencer to Underwood will be completed before long. The traffic
volwne on Underwood has not been sufficient to warrant the construction of left
turn lanes. However, the situation will be reviewed prior to the reconstruction
of Underwood Road.
You may recall during the discussion of the condition of the north lanes of Fairmont
that the impending 1975 Bond Project reconstruction was mentioned as a determining
factor in the kind of repairs Precinct 1 has made. The Bond Project will include
the removal and replacement of all existing sub-grade. For this reason, Precinct 1
will limit the repair work as much as possible in order to avoid investing both
materials and labor in the more lasting repair work which requires replacement of
the surface and sub-grade where the detrioration has taken place. Naturally, every-
one looks forward to the elimination of this problem by the Bond Project reconstruc-
tion.
I have asked Mike Noblet, Precinct 1 Environmental Aide, to get in touch with you
in order to see if there is anything Precinct 1 can do to assist you regarding the
problem you described with the Flood Control ditch between San Jacinto and Texas.
Mike is very knowledgeable about the operations within the Flood Control District
and is the member of my staff who acts as liaison to the District.
As I mentioned at our meeting the area office of Precinct 1 which serves the La Porte
area is operated by Jane Cherry and located in the new Clear Lake Courthouse Annex.
Calls related to routine road maintenance work or requests to set culverts on county
•
FAMILY LAW CENTER • 1 1 15 CONGRESS AVENUE • HOUSTON. TEXAS 77002
roads are handled by this office. Please feel free to call Jane regarding any
• other concerns you may have.
I will plan to set up another meeting in La Porte later in 1977. In the meantime,
if something comes up and you would like to meet sooner, please call.
s ruly,
TOM BASS
