INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
T0: CITY ADMINISTRATOR DATE:
FROM: CITY CLERK
SUBJECT: STREET LIGHT INFORMATION
MARCH 12, 1979
Attached for your consideration is a copy of a street light statement
from Houston Lighting & Power Company for February, 1979.
The average cost per street light for all street lights is $4.70
per month per light.
3300 Lumen Mercury Vapor Overhead Bracket Lights will vary from
$2.50 to $7.50 per light plus fuel adjustment.
3300 Lumen Mercury Vapor Underground Standard Singles would be
approximately $4.00 per light plus fuel adjustment.
Fuel Adjustments will vary from $1.21 to $3.61 per light per month,
depending on amount of kilowatts used.
One light, 20,000 Single Underground:
$ 7.50 Kilowatts
2.68 Fuel Adjustment
$10.18 per light per month
The higher the bill, the lower the Fuel Adjustment.
For the month of February, 1979, for 628 lights, the bill was
$2,956.09, making an overall average street light cost $4.70.
As you are aware, the Subdivision Ordinance states that the developer
must pay $30 per light, five years in advance. That would be $150.00
each. At an average cost of $4.70 per light x 12 months = $56.40
per year x 5 years = $282.00 estimated cost at todays charge; and
the developer has paid $150.00. The City has to pay an additional
$132.00 per light, above the developers cost.

REQUEST OF ST. MARY'S CHURCH FOR A VARIANCE TO ALLOW

FURNITURE STORE - 816 PARK AVENUE
The Planning & Zoning Commission recommends that the attached
resolution be approved to allow a special exception for the placement
of an accessory building at 816 Park Avenue. This resolution would
limit use to the charitable distribution of goods.
We feel that such use is in keeping with church property.

Dear Mrs. Goyen:
This letter is for the purpose of giving the Planning Commission
a written request to make a special restriction variance to allow
St. Mary's St. Vincent de Paul Society of La Porte to operate a used
clothing and furniture store on St. Mary's Church Property located
at 816 Park Ave. Please note, on the enclosed sketch, the location
of the a~~ea that we are talking about. We also wish to purchase a
new 14' x 40' metal portable building and locate it in the area
marked "new building".
The St. Vincent de Paul Society is anon-profit organization
designed to give moral, spiritual and material help to the poor in
the La Porte area. All funds raised or donated to it remain with
St. Vincent de Paul. We take the money and help the area poor and
needy by paying their rent, utilities, food, donate clothing, etc.,
without regard to race, creed, color or financial status. None of
t}ie funds go toward financial assistance of St. Mary's Church.
Over the past 7 years we have helped the La Porte Area needs to the
tune of over $25,000.
If you have any questions r~:garding this request, please give
me a call at my office, 869-8331.

Re: St. tdary's Church proposed portable building
Dear Mrs. Huston:
TELEPHONE
713 A71•IB86
The application of St. Mary's Church to erect a prefabricated
building at 816 Park Aveune, to be used for charitable dis-
tribution of goods runs afoul of two provisions of the. City's
Zoning Ordinance 780, those being the nature and placement
of the building and the use thereof.
The building is to be a prefabricated accessory building, in
which no one will live. The placement of such as proposed by
the Church would be in violation of Section 13-201(8) of the
Zoning Ordinance, in that it would not be located 75 feet
from the front property line. This problem may be cured by
a special exception under Section 1G-201(1), concerning
modification of the required yard area and spacing.
•
The intended use, charitable distrubution of goods, is a use
which is not specifically allowed in R-1 districts. Section
13-201(3), speaking of Churches and their uses, does not
specifically list such as a valid Church function and it is
not listed as a use which is exclusive to types of districts
other than R-1. Section 1G-201(6} provides for tYzc determination
of classifications not specifically named in the Ordinance.
In this case, such determination should include a finding
that tlic proposed use is in keeping with the uses specifically
named in the regu]_ations for the R-1 district. If it is the
policy of. the City that such a use should be allowed ,•a
holding that charitable distribution of goods, where such is
clearly anr.illary to the main function of- the Church property,
is izi keeping with the uses of Cl1Uy"ell property specifically
named i.n the R-1 regulation::>, would be appropriate in order
to allow this use.

Should the Commission decide that granting the request of
St. Mary's is proper and desirable, the needed action may
be accomplished by the enclosed resolution or by similar

know if I may be of assistance.
Yours very truly,

Please consider my request for a variance for a car port as per the

Please have an open mind when viewing the location, distance from

structure, if necessary, etc.
Thank you for your consideration at the work shop in getting this

REQUEST FOR VARIANCE OF SET BACK LINES FOR CAR PORT
FOR 422 S. 1ST STREET - BLOCK 11, LOTS 17, 18, & 19,
LA PORTE ADDITION - DOYLE WESTERGREN
The above property is located at the corner of 1st and "D" Streets,
and presently has a garage facing "D" Street. This garage is a pre-
existing non-conforming use in that it extends to the property line
on "D" Street. Mr. Westergren is requesting permission to build an
open car port attached to the side of the garage, but extending
approximately two feet onto City property on "D" Street, past the
present garage.
The Planning & Zoning Commission recommends allowing a variance to
permit Mr. Westergren to erect the car port, with the exception that
it not extend past the property line.

TO: Mayor and Council

~~
SUBJECT: Sanitary Sewer Extension for M. D. Rose
M. D. Rose of 921 Seabreeze desires to extend a sanitary
sewer line to serve lots 1-7 and 20-26 owned by him, delineated
on the attached plat.
The City has an existing line that serves a portion of the
block (lots 14-19 and lots 8-13); however, the grade on the
existing line is such that it cannot be extended. Two additional
problems with the existing line are (1) it lies outside of the
six (6) feet utility easement at the rear of the lots, and (2)
it is an old concrete line that does not appear to be in very
good condition.
Because of the above conditions it is recommended that a
new line be constructed to serve the entire block on a joint ven-
ture with Mr. Rose. The City would pay for that portion of line
• that would serve the lots that the existing line serves. Mr. Rose
would pay for the remaining portion of the line. -
The estimated pro rata shares and total cost of the line
are as follows:
City share M. D. Rose share
300' 8 in. PVC @ $8.00 ft. _ $2,400 325' 8 in. PVC @ $8.00 = $2,600
Engineering fee - 6$ of $2,400 = 144 Eng. fee - 6~ of $2,600= 156
2,54.4 2,756
City share $2,544
M. D. Rose share 2,756
5,300
It is recommended that the Cit 's share of this project be
appropriated from the Water and ew mprovement Fund.

RESOLUTION TO ACCEPT AN
AMENDMENT TO SOLID WASTE AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE CITY OF LA PORTE AND THE
FAIRMONT PARK HOMES ASSOCIATION
The Board of Directors of the Fairmont Park Homes Association
does hereby resolve to accept a proposal by the City of La Porte,
dated January 25, 1979, said proposal being to amend Section IV of
the Solid Waste Agreement between the City of La Porte and the
Fairmont Park Homes Association to .limit the City's liability for
disposal costs.
Specifically, the Board agrees to accept the amendment to
Section IV of the Agreement as defined in the City's correspondence
~`'~
to the Fairmont Park Homes Association dated January 25, 1879, as
follows:
"The private hauler or haulers with which I'airmont enters
into contracts, for garbage and refuse pick-up service
in Fairmont Park Subdivision, shall dump and dispose of
such garb age and refuse, at said hauler's own expense, at
a sanitary land fill disposal ground of said haulers choosing,
without any charge to City. In addition to the agreed
payments under Paragraph III hereof, City shall also
remit to Fairmont each month, as and for reinbursement
for Fairmont's reasonable cost of disposal at a sanitary
land fill disposal grounds, the amount of the charge
by Harris County for the disposal of one cubic yard of
compacted garbage, multiplied by Fairmont's "Total cubic
yards per month" as determined by the following formula:
NU - Number of housing units
3.2 - Average nwnber of persons per housing unit
3.5 - Average pounds of solid waste generated
per. person per day
DM - Days per monk;h
-2-
•
550 lbs. - %verage weight of a compacted cubic yard of
solid waste
T - Total cubic yards per month
(NU x 3.2) (3.5) (DM) = T
550
It is understood that the factor "T" in the above computation
shall be multiplied by the per cubic yard disposal fee charged by the
Harris County landfill.
It is further understood that this amendment applies only to the
•
routine disposal of ordinary household garbage and compacted
refuse (currently performed by Genro Waste System), and does not
apply to the disposal of cut tree limbs and other occasional large
trash such as may be picked up in Fairmont Park by a separate private
hauler (currently D. Merritt).
The Board agrees that this Amendment be effective as of April 1,
1979, and thereafter during the life of the Solid Waste Agreement
Contract dated March 1, 1971.
