Attn. Ms . Waters
Ref. Request for hearing before the Planning and Zoning Committee for
variance on parking facilities as required for building permit at
Swann Technical Service Inc.
125 South Third Street
La Porte, Texas 77571 .
Dear M s . Waters ,
The nature of our business is Engineering Design and Drafting of
Petro-Chemical Plants. Our existing office space accommodates four (4)
administrative people full-time with six (6) people that go out on assignments
to various plants .
Our present parking facilities will accommodate twelve (12) full size cars.
The proposed new office space would accommodate eight (8) new-people
that would have four (4) people going to plants and four (4) people full-time
in-house.
• Consquently, the four (4) people full-time in the present existing build-
ing and the proposed four (4) full-time people in the new addition, would only
be eight (8) people parking full-time during the working day. This would leave
four (4) un-used parking spaces for the sporadic coming and going of plant
personnel if it should occur.
The layout of our existing office is of such a nature that our reception
area, conference room, office supply storage room, and coffee bar take up
half of the floor space. One fourth of the other floor space is consumed by
reference tables, drafting tables, file cabinets, blueprint machines, and
storage.
It was pointed out to me that the new building code requires one park-
. ing space per 200 sq.ft. of office space. I feel that a variance is in order
due to our existing buildings square footage usable space is of a different
nature and our premise habitation during working hours is an exception to the
rule
Sincerely
Encl. Bldg. & Parking layout G~~G~

INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
T0: J. R./Hudgens DATE: August 26, 1981
FROM: D. ,j ssen
SUBJECT: Variance - Swann Technical Services
I concur with Planning and Zoning's recommendation to deny this
parking variance. Mr. Swann states in his letter that this is a new
building code requirement; however, that is not the case. It is
difficult at best to enforce our present zoning ordinance and this
variance would, in my opinion, set a dangerous precedent. This
existing building enjoys a "grandfather" parking variance under
the terms of the zoning ordinance and an increase in square footage
would result in an even further decrease of parking availability.
As a note of interest,a similar situation arose with the new
Speedy Taco Restaurant on Main Street. The building use was
changed but his square footage was also increased and we required
and got the required number of parking spaces.
Again, to maintain our enforcement ability and credibility
• with other businesses in town I must concur with Planning and
Zoning and recommend denial of the variance request.

MEMORANDUM
August 4, 1981
T0: Mayor and City Council
• FROM: Planning and Zoning Commission
SUBJECT: Variance on Parking Spaces - Swann Technical Services
Planning and Zoning met August 3, 1981, to consider a request
for variance from Mr. Edward Swann.
Mr. Swann's property is located at the corner of 3rd Street
and Avenue A. The present building is rather old, and obviously
predates the ordinance parking requirements. However, Mr. Swann
wishes to construct another building on the rear of the property.
Such construction would cause nearly complete coverage of the
property with no provision at all for parking off-street. There
are presently 12 on-street parking spaces which Mr. Swann considers
adequate for his type of business.
If complete complaince with the ordinance were required,
Mr. Swann would need to provide approximately 5 or 6 off-street
parking spaces for the new construction, and he wishes to provide
none. A city-owned parking lot is adjacent to the property, but
use of that facility is questionable on a long-term basis.
Planning and Zoning recommends that Mr. Swann's request for
parking variance be denied.

Pat Muston, Chairman

SUBJECT: Change Order ~~8 -Service Center
At the time of permit issuance for the service center, three
double sided exit signs were noted on the prints. It should be
noted that these were required and noted on the prints at the
time of issuance and have not been added or required since then.
It should also be noted again that contract was bid and awarded
before this department had a final set of drawings for review.
This is a standard exit requirement for the corridor locations.

• RESOLUTION NO. 81-~_
A RESOLUTION POSTPONING APPRAISAL OF PROPERTY BY THE HARRIS
COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT FOR ALL TAXING UNITS UNTIL 1984
AND PROVIDING FOR A PHASE-IN OF APPRAISAL FUNCTIONS BY SUCH
DISTRICT.
WHEREAS, significant amendments were made to the Texas
Property Tax Code during the course of the 67th Legislature
of the State of Texas, First Called Session, 1981, all as
more fully reflected in House Bill No. 30 enacted as an emer-
gency measure at such session and signed by the Governor on
August 14, 1981; and
WHEREAS, one such amendment (Section 161 of said House
Bill No. 30) authorizes the governing bodies of two-thirds of
• the taxing units entitled to vote on appointment of the members
of the Board of Directors of an appraisal district (counties,
incorporated cities and town, and school districts) to postpone
the appraisal of property for all taxing units by the appraisal
district until 1984; and
WHEREAS, said amendment provides that such decision to
postpone must be made by resolutions adopted by the required
number of such taxing units specifying the postponement date and
filed with the secretary of the appraisal district Board of
Directors prior to October 1, 1981; and
WHE REAS, subject only to those minor exceptions authorized
by Section 6.02 of the Texas Property Tax Code, the boundaries
of the Harris County Appraisal District are coterminous with
those of Harris County and encompass approximately 300 separate
taxing units; and
WHEREAS, said taxing units are predominantly urban in char-
acter and contain vast numbers of taxable properties, real and
personal; and
WHEREAS, the magnitude of the task of the Harris County Ap-
praisal District in implementing the conversion of the appraisal
functions of multiple taxing units to a single appraisal unit by
• January 1, 1982, would be awesome, formidable and difficult; and
•
WHEREAS, because of the magnitude of such a task and all
• attendant difficulties, it is the judgment of this governing
body that the best interest of taxpayers and taxing units within
the district would be promoted and served if the Harris County
Appraisal District were required to implement its ultimate ap-
praisal function and responsibility over a three-year period;
now, therefore
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA PORTE:
1. That it be, and it is hereby declared to be, the
decision of the governing body of this taxing unit that the
Harris County Appraisal District shall postpone the appraisal
of property for all taxing units within such district until
1984 and that such district shall implement its appraisal func-
• tion over a three-year period in a manner consistent with the
provisions of the Texas Property Tax Code, to-wit:
In 1982, said District shall appraise all property within
the City of Houston (the most populous city in the district ac-
cording to the 1980 Federal Census) and within the Houston Inde-
pendent School District (the school district with the highest
average daily attendance in the 1980-1981 school year) unless
the Board of Directors of such District elects'to-allow the tax
assessor for the City of Houston to appraise property in 1982
for said City and any taxing unit for which such City provides
assessment or collection services by law or contract. In 1983,
such District shall appraise all property in the City of Houston
and in the Houston Independent School District and in the terri-
• tory of those other school districts participating in the Harris
County Appraisal District which are contiguous to the Houston
Independent School District. In 1982 or 1983, the Harris County
Appraisal District may appraise all property within any other
taxing unit participating in such district if requrested to do
so by resolution of the governing body of such taxing unit deli-
vered to the secretary of the Board of Directors of said District
before October 1 of the year preceding the year for which the
appraisal is to be performed and if said request is approved by
•
•
the Board of Directors of the District. From and after 1984,
the Harris County Appraisal District shall appraise property
for all taxing units participating in such District.
2. That the City Secretary be, and she is hereby, author-
ized and directed to deliver or cause to be delivered a certi-
fied copy of this resolution to the secreatary of the Board of
Directors of the Harris County Appraisal District prior to
October 1, 1981.
