Administrative Reports Mr. Owen reported the auction had generated sales of $41,606, and that La Porte's portion of that totaled $21,366.50. 12. Council Action Skelton: Appreciates the notification that the letter had been sent to the engineer regarding the sidewalk on "G" Street between Broadway and San Jacinto. Reported that the trash bins had been moved. Westergren: Announced the 4th of July festivities to be held at Sylvan Beach from 9:00 A.M. until 9:00 P.M. Malone: Commented on the proposed trip to the Houston Lighting & Power facility in Rosenberg. He has made the tour and it was very interesting. Mayor Cline polled Council and four would be able to go during • the week of July 9-13th. The City Secretary will make the reservations. Longley: Would like for the City Manager to be thinking about what to do with the land in Fairmont Park where the old sewer plant was located. Owen: Part of it will need to be retained as a lift station. Staff will soon be compiling a list of all small parcels of land owned by the City to bring to Council to see what they would like to do with the land. Matuszak: Mr. Longley is talking about restoration of ground. If you dug up that ground you'd find a sewer plant turned upside-down in it. We're not going to restore our own land even though it's quite beneficial. We can bury debris on that particular land on a commercial strip that borders on Fairmont Parkway. However, when you talk about next to the Public Works where it's ash and not concrete, it's a different story. Thanks to Jack for requesting to Houston Lighting & Power the lights on either end of Driftwood. He's sure the folks will appreciate that. How long does a request like that usually take? • I I • ~ • Minutes, Regular Meeting, La Porte City Council June 20, 1984, Page 5 The Mayor replied that it usually takes three or four months. Graves: In regards to our recent auction - I hope we don't have any surprises coming up next week like tractors and brush hogs. Has gotten a couple of complaints on the Southern Pacific crossing at 225; it's getting bad again. Appreciates B. Don Skelton picking up the ball on the side- walk on "G" Street. He had requested something be done a long time ago, but had dropped the ball somewhere along the line. His street is "bleeding up" badly and it is ruining his carpet from being tracked into the house. Can something be done; can we look into hot mix overlay rather than the two- course? It has had to have something done to it every year. Pfeiffer: Would like to get the paper to publicize the "Solicitation Ordinance." In the last two weeks he has had 3 or 4 people come to his house selling something, who haven't • gone through the proper procedures. The intent of the ordi- nance is to give people peace of mind; he thinks the public should be reminded again that we do have an ordinance, and if they have someone come up they need to inform them of the ordinance, and also to let someone with the City know. Cline: Has received a letter from the 9-1-1 Emergency Net- work executive director. Their board .has elected to hold their monthly meetings in surrounding cities that are partici- pating in the 9-1-1 program. These meetings are held the first Thursday of the month at 10:00 A.M. Would Council like to host a meeting? It was agreed that La Porte would host a. meeting. The City Secretary will send the form back to the 9-1-l~board to inform them what date we would like to host. She has received a lot of phone calls about water bills. She read a letter from Mr. and Mrs. Perry protesting the high rates. The letter mentioned that there was a rumor that there would be a meeting at the old MUD office between the City and Brookglen residents. Was Mr. Owen aware of such a meeting? Mr. Owen replied he was not aware of a meeting, although Bob Herrera has talked of sending a letter to the residents out • there to explain how their previous payments were set up and what they covered, and the City of La Porte structure. I • • Minutes, Regular Meeting, La Porte City Council June 20, 1984, Page 6 Mr. Malone commented that he had gotten two separate water bills for the same amount in the same month, and that Mr. Post had called him and said he had gotten two bills for his mobile home park the same month for the same amount. Apparently there is an error somewhere and some people are being double billed. Mr. Owen will look into the matter. Mr. Skelton reminded Council that Thursday night is Harris County Mayors' and Councils' meeting at Monument Inn. 13. There was no executive session. 14. There being no further business to come before the Council, the meeting was duly adjourned at 8:08 P.M.

CECIL ALIEN VICE PRESIDENT PO BOX 13089 HOUSTON, TEXAS 77219 5757 WOODWAY 713 780.4100 TELEX 774185 TCB HOU We are happy to present two (2) draft copies of an Agreement for Engineering Services for your review for the above ref- erenced project. We estimate that the probable Total Construction Costs for the project will be $7,721,000 (see Attachment "A"). We propose to provide engineering for the Basic Services outlined in this Agreement for $400,000 (see Attachment "A") and we estimate that the Special Services will be approximately $315,000 (see Attachment "A"), should the City authorize full time construc- tion Project Representatives for both construction contracts. If the City elects to furnish one or more of the Project Representatives or elects to have only part time services provided on one or more of the construction contracts, the cost would be less. The responsibilities of the construction Project Representatives will include on-site observation of construction, review of materials and workmanship, preparation of daily written reports, and daily communication and co- ordination with the contractors. Basically, the Project Representative's function is to see that the construction work is completed in accordance with the plans and specifications. Attachment "B" represents a breakdown of probable construction costs into those attributable to abandonment of the College View MUD wastewater treatment facility and conveyance of its flow to the existing City main wastewater treatment facility and those that can be attributed directly to the growth of the City of La Porte. Attachment "C" presents the general tasks required to complete this project and includes both Basic Services and Special Service items. ~~~~ ~ CONSULTING ENGINEERS • TEXAS AUSTIN/DALLAS/EL PASO/HOUSTON/PORT ARTHUR COLORADO DENVER/CRAND JUNCTION • ~ ~ • n U • TurnerCollie~Braden Inc. April 30, 1984 Mr. Jack Owen City of La Porte Page Two Attachment "D" is an analysis of basic services engineering fees for a project of this size based on the fee curves shown in the TSPE manual. Our proposed fee for basic services is $85,000 below the fee calculated from the curves. This amount represents the value of the recently completed Comprehensive Wastewater Collection and Treatment Plan as it applies to this project plus the value of other work we performed for the City. Attachment "E" presents the resumes of the key personnel involved in this project. The resumes of the Principal in Charge, Project Director, alternate Project Director, Project Manager and Project. Engineers are included, along with the resumes of several of the primary design engineers available to work on this assignment. We propose to complete the Preliminary Design and Final Design phases within 180 days after authorization (150 days to complete work and 30 days for approval of plans and specifications) for the Fairmont Parkway Relief Sewer and within 240 days after authorization (210 days to complete work and 30 days for approval of plans and specifications) for the Expansion of the Main Wastewater Treatment Facility. All work outlined in Paragraphs II.A. and II.B. of the Agreement will be finished within 45 days after authorization. Should you or your staff wish to discuss any of the information presented here in more detail, we would be happy to do so. We appreciate the opportunity to submit this Agreement for Engineer- ing Services for your consideration. Very truly yours, ~~-'~" i H. Cecil Allen, P.E.

Guminey, DDS gave a presentation on the CSI dental plan. After discussion with department and division heads, it is our concensus that this would be a very good plan to offer the City employees. This would be a strictly voluntary program with payroll deductions set • up through the Finance division. The employees could then cancel the program at any time by discontinuing this payroll deduction. attachments . ~- ~ AFFORDABLE FAY (~ ~ DENTAL PROGRAMS • CSI IS DESIGNED TO ELIMINATE THE MANY FACTORS WHICH ACT AS FINANCIAL DETERENTS TO DENTAL PATIENTS.
