INTER OFFICE MEMORANDUM
February 21, 1995
TO: Ro ert T. Herrera, City Manager
FROM. fteve Gillett, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Sewer Problem - Farrington @ Collingswood
Several weeks ago, the CityyIs TV and Cleaning contractor, AAA Pipe,
televised the 8" sewer between Collingswood and Winding Trail from
Farrington Blvd. to Valleybrook due to continual maintenance
problems. The line serves over 100 homes in Fairmont Park. Severe
deterioration was noted throughout the line, with a missing roof
segment at the manhole in the yard at Collingswood and Farrington,
just prior to emptying into the trunk main along Farrington. The
line is over 18 feet deep at this point.
A crew was dispatched to attempt to slipline a segment of pipe ( 6' )
in the missing segment, with limited success. Since that time, the
line has continued to collapse, until Thursday, February 16, 1995,
when jetting could no longer open the line to flow. Rainfall
during this time compounded the problem.
A plan was developed to establish by-pass pumping from the manhole
to Farrington with a temporary lift station designed and installed
in the manhole by the Utility Division on Friday, February 17. The
installation is functioning well, and should perform until
permanent repairs are completed.
Soils are saturated from recent rain. It is planned to allow the
ground to dry, assisted by elimination of sewer flow through the
collapse area, and then reattempt to jet through the collapse and
slipline a section of pipe from the manhole to complete pipe. If
this is successful, trenchless technology (Insituform, sliplinning,
etc.) can be used to rehabilitate the entire section for a
permanent repair.
If this plan is not successful, quotes will be solicited from
contractors to perform a conventional point repair by excavation
and replacement, with trenchless technology used to complete the
repair as outlined above. obviously, with the depth and location,
this method will be much more costly and time consuming, as well as
disruptive to the resident.
I will keep you informed of progress.

(THEO)
Theo began working with the City of La Porte as the Parts Manager
in Equipment Services in July, 1984. He had an extensive
background in Auto Parts Supply in the private sector. For a
period of time he owned and operated his own transmission shop.
During his employment with the City, Theo worked very hard to
always find the least expensive and most reliable source for auto
parts. He was constantly checking suppliers for prices and for
availability of parts. His background and expertise in the auto
parts field will be missed in the Equipment Services division.
Theo and his wife, Joy, plan to spend their retirement visiting
relatives, working on their retirement home in Conroe, and just
relaxing.
Theo will be missed for his ready smile and his good humor. He was
always willing to help his fellow employees get the parts and
equipment needed to do their jobs. Theo served a vital function in
the daily operations of the City.
All of his fellow employees wish Theo and Joy the best of luck in
the future and the enjoyment of their retirement. They have earned
it!

INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: Honorable Mayor Malone and City Council Members
160
FROM: Bill Davenport, Street Supervisor
DATE: February 23, 1995
SUBJECT: Information on Janice Church ( Employee of the Quarter)
Janice came to the City of La Porte in 1983. Most people
probably do not recognize Janice. She is our mosquito control
specialist. Janice is very dedicated to her job and has attended
numerous seminars to keep abreast of current regulations and to
stay in touch with her peers in mosquito control. Janice has
received extensive training from Harris County Mosquito Control
in all aspects of controlling this pest. She has a lot of input
into which products we utilize in our efforts to fight
mosquitoes.
A typical work week for Janice includes three nights of spraying
the city for mosquitoes followed by two days of larviciding
ditches and right of ways where standing water serves as a
breeding ground. She also sets out and collects traps for
mosquitoes. The count of dead mosquitoes in the traps lets us
know where to concentrate our spraying efforts or whether to
spray the entire city twice in one week.
During the big flood this fall, it took all the training and
expertise of Janice to bring the major outbreak of mosquitoes
under control. She worked long, hard hours. Weekends were
worked also in an effort to bring relief. Not once did Janice
complain about the extra burden placed on her. On the contrary,
she asked and looked for more that she could do to contribute.
It is dedication such as this from employees like Janice that
make all of our lives a little better. It is a privilege for me
to be her supervisor and proudly recommend Janice Church for
"Employee of the Quarter."

At the City Council Workshop on January 30, 1995, the City Council was
briefed on the Harris -Galveston Coastal Subsidence District's water
conservation program through fifth -grade elementary schools. The program
involves education on water conservation and energy efficiency, and costs

The District has submitted interlocal agreements for two groups of schools.
The first includes Lomax, Reid and Rizzuto Elementary, with an estimated
1994-95 fifth -grade enrollment of 333 students. The second group includes
La Porte and Bayshore Elementary, with fifth -grade enrollment of 187.

Point, the District is working with these cities to cosponsor students with
La Porte. Consideration of participation in the second group will be
brought to the Council at a later date.
The total cost to participate in the first group of schools is $9,324.00
for the first year. The Agreement is renewed automatically on an annual
basis unless 90 days written notice is given terminating the Agreement.
Funds are available from the Utility Fund Contingency.

REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM
Agenda Date Requested: February 27, 1995
Requested By: Stephen L. Barr Department: Parks & Recreation
Report Resolution X Ordinance JV
Exhibits: 1. Ordinance No. 95-1644-D Amending a Fee Policy and
Schedule for Outdoor Municipal Swimming Pools
2. Proposal Memorandum from Kristine Hulse, Aquatics Coordinator
SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
The Parks and Recreation Department Staff has identified and proposed changes in the Swimming
Pool Ordinance which will improve our ability to provide aquatics services to the citizens of La Porte,
and make those services more equitable. Key changes in the proposed Ordinance are as follows:
1) the Wave Pool general admission fees are changed from Adult $3.50/Child $2.50 to a
single rate of $3.00 for both Adults and Children who visit the Wave Pool. Proposed Wave
Pool fees for Seniors would increase from $1.50 to $2.00 and the Sunsaver Fee (after 4:00
p.m.) would also increase from $1.50to $2.00each. Analysis of this proposed fee structure
indicates that revenues would not be adversely affected by the change, money handling
duties for cashiers would be reduced, and the change should promote additional "family use"
at the pool.
2) the Season Pass fee structure has been revised to better reflect the needs of the
community and to reduce the bookkeeping processes required by the variety of passes that
could be purchased under the existing Ordinance. The existing pass fee schedule has
eighteen (18) different fees for season passes, coupons, etc., the majority of which were
seldom or never purchased by the public. The proposed pass fee schedule has seven (7)
pass/coupon rates which better reflect the needs of the public for swimming pool usage.
3) the rental policy for the Little Cedar Bayou Wave Pool has been modified to allow a
minimum two (2) hour rental instead of the existing minimum four (4) hour rental. There is
also a provision which allows the City to receive a share of revenue generated on rentals
where the producer is making a profit on an event held at these city -owned facilities.
Staff recommends the approval of Ordinance 95-1644-D amending the fee policy and schedule for
outdoor municipal swimming pools.

SUBJECT: Summary of 1995 operational changes verses 1994 season
Please review the draft of changes proposed for the 1995 operating season. If you have any questions or
comments please feel free to make them on the draft and route back to me for changes or clarification.
Thank you for your time and attention to this document.
TOPIC: Ordinance Changes
PROBLEM: Identified the need for changes in the ordinance. These changes include fee rate
schedule, season passes, and rental policies.
SUGGESTIONS: The following are suggestions for the new ordinance.
Proposed Fees
Little Cedar Bayou Wave Pool $3.00 (ages 3-59)
$2.00 (60+)
$2.00 (After 4pm)
Free (2 & under)
Municipal Pools $1.00 (3 & up)

the same attendance levels are achieved.

Exhibits: 1. Bid Recap for Project No. 94-5204 - Basketball Court
Construction at Creekmont Park and Fairmont Park East
Community Center
2. Change Order - Project No. 94-5204
3. Memorandum of Commitment - Fairmont Park East Homeowner's Association
SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION
The City of La Porte has advertised for joint bids to construct a basketball court at Creekmont Park and a
basketball court at Fairmont Park East Community Center. Bids were opened and read on January 24, 1995.
Bid requests were issued to six vendors with four returning bids. Derek Harmsen Constructkai, Inc. submitted
the low bid meeting specifications for this project, totalling $29,428.00 (after change orders). The Fairmont
Park East Community Center basketball court bid share is $15,897.00. Fairmont Park East Homeowner's
Association has committed $15,897.00 as their share of the project funding (see attachment). The
Creekmont Park basketball court bid share is $13,531.00. The amount budgeted in the FY 94-95 budget for
the Creekmont Park basketball court was $12,500.00 (for a half court project). The budget shortfall for the
City's share of the combined project is $1,031.00. We were able to combine the City of La Porte project with
the Fairmont Park East Community Center basketball court project, and by so doing, get a whole basketball
court built at Creekmont Park for slightly more than was budgeted for a half court. The budgetary shortfall
can be absorbed through use of the savings realized from other FY 94-95 project savings such as the glass
and casement replacement project at the Jennie Riley Center (estimated savings of $3,114.00).
The proposed contractual work on the Fairmont East Community Center basketball court is contingent upon
approval by the Fairmont Park East Homeowner's Association of a Letter of Agreement stipulating the
responsibilities of the City and the Association; and the transfer of appropriate funding to complete the
project. The City of La Porte will receive the stated money from the Fairmont Park East Homeowner's
Association and will place it in escrow until the project is completed.
Staff recommends the award of this construction project to Derek Harmsen Construction, Inc. as overall
bidder meeting specifications, and the bid being within the 25% limit for budgeted funds for the specified
projects.
Action Required by Council:
Consider award of bid for basketball court construction at Creekmont Park and Fairmont East Community
Center to Derek Harmsen Construction, Inc., overall low bidder meeting specifications, contingent upon
receipt of funds to be placed in escrow. Ordinance withheld and not effective until funds are received.

February 21, 1995
TO: Robert T. Herrera, City Manager
FROM: eve Gillett, Director of Public Works
SIIBJECT: Sewer Problem - Farrington @ Collingswood
Several weeks ago, the City' s TV and Cleaning contractor, AAA Pipe,
televised the 8" sewer between Collingswood and Winding Trail from
Farrington Blvd. to Valleybrook due to continual maintenance
problems. The line serves over 100 homes in Fairmont Park. Severe
deterioration was noted throughout the line, with a missing roof
segment at the manhole in the yard at Collingswood and Farrington,
just prior to emptying into the trunk main along Farrington. The
line is over 18 feet deep at this point.
A crew was dispatched to attempt to slipline a segment of pipe (61)
in the missing segment, with limited success. Since that time, the
line has continued to collapse, until Thursday, February 16, 1995,
when jetting could no longer open the line to flow. Rainfall
during this time compounded the problem.
A plan was developed to establish by-pass pumping from the manhole
to Farrington with a temporary lift station designed and installed
in the manhole by the Utility Division on Friday, February 17. The
installation is functioning well, and should perform until
permanent repairs are completed.
Soils are saturated from recent rain. It is planned to allow the
ground to dry, assisted by elimination of sewer flow through the
collapse area, and then reattempt to jet through the collapse and
slipline a section of pipe from the manhole to complete pipe. If
this is successful, trenchless technology (Insituform, sliplinning,
etc.) can be used to rehabilitate the entire section for a
permanent repair.
If this plan is not successful, quotes will be solicited from
contractors to perform a conventional point repair by excavation
and replacement, with trenchless technology used to complete the
repair as outlined above. Obviously, with the depth and location,
this method will be much more costly and time consuming, as well as
disruptive to the resident.
I will keep you informed of progress.
