Validation Date: 6/14/99 f P ao to�A � Director of Planning City Secretary Agenda Date Requested: June 14, 1999 Requested By: Roxann Hayes Department: Planning Report X Resolution Ordinance Exhibits: Resolution No. Summary & Recommendation Since 1972, the City has participated in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The NFIP is a Federal program where affordable flood insurance is made available to property owners in participating communities. In 1997, over 2000 flood insurance policies were in effect in the City of La Porte. Under the NFIP, communities are required to adopt rules and enforce certain building restrictions to safeguard against new buildings being constructed in flood hazard areas. A supplement to the NFIP is the Community Rating System (CRS). This program is for communities that go beyond the minimum requirements of the NFIP and perform activities that further reduce the potential for flood hazards. Communities that participate in the CRS can enjoy discounts on their flood insurance premiums. An important activity required by the CRS is for the City to develop and implement a FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN. This plan will identify areas that have experienced repetitive flood losses and recommend actions to decrease or eliminate the potential for future flooding. Staff has developed the attached FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN. Public input is required before final adoption of the PLAN. The May 20th P & Z meeting was used to receive public input for the PLAN. Staff then modified the PLAN, based on public comment, and is now presenting the final PLAN to City Council. The City has made application to participate in the CRS program. The FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN and other activities need to be complete by the middle of June. FEMA will be reviewing our application and verifying the activities and services the City provides. Our goal is for FEMA to apply a 5% discount to all flood insurance policies in the City.

It is prepared to guide construction and development of the City, especially in Special Flood Hazard Areas. This document has also been prepared to qualify as a "Floodplain Management Plan' to be credited under the Community Rating System (CRS) of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Under the CRS, flood insurance rates will be reduced if the City implements activities that go beyond the minimum requirements of the NFIP. The City is currently submitting an application for CRS classification. The approach selected for preparing this plan was taken from Section 510 of the CRS Coordinator's Manual. This plan's section headings coincide with Section 510's headings. The Planning Department drafted this plan, with input from other City employees: Planning Department • Director • Engineer -In -Training • Professional Planner • Chief Building Official • Engineering Technician Public Works Department • Director • Superintendent of Streets • Drainage Maintenance Supervisor One public meeting was held to obtain public input on the draft plan. This public meeting was held in conjunction with the monthly Planning and Zoning Commission Meeting on May 2e, 1999. An article was laced on the front page in the City's Newspaper, The Bayshore Sun, on May 16 , 1999. This meeting is more than two weeks prior to the City Council meeting on June 14"', 1999, where the plan was officially adopted in resolution form. Additionally, several working sessions were held that focused on hazard assessment, problem identification, mitigation goals, review of possible activities and work elements to be included in the proposed plan. This document focuses on short-range activities that can be accomplished in the immediate future, as well as long-range activities. The Floodplain Management Plan also takes a closer look at Repetitive Loss Areas, and develops a separate plan for mitigating issues in those specific areas. City of La Porte Page 2 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10, 1999 C� i Public Involvement CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Elements of the Public Participation Plan approved by the Council include: • Holding a public meeting on May 2&, 1999 to review findings from the Committee, to listen to citizen concerns and recommendations, and to describe how citizens can provide input to the Floodplain Management Plan. • Copies of the Draft Floodplain Management Plan were made available to the public at City Hall's Planning Department.

City of La Porte Page 4 of 26 Planning Department, nmh June 10,1999 i CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Assess the Hazard Topography The City of La Porte has several major watersheds running through it, and is adjacent to Galveston Bay. Hurricanes The major threats to the City of La Porte are coastal storms and hurricanes. These events can produce three types of hazards: high winds, storm surge, and torrential rain. The following descriptions of the hazards has been taken from the Weather Channel's website, "Effects of a Hurricane," at http://www.weather.com/breaking weather/encyclopedia/tropicaVeffect.html: Rainfall Induced Flooding The heavy rains associated with a tropical weather system are responsible not only for major flooding in areas where the storm initially strikes, but can also affect areas hundreds of miles from where the storm originally made landfall. During landfall, it is not uncommon for 5 to 10 inches to fall. If it is large and moving slowly, rainfall could be even more excessive. As the storm moves inland, and is down graded to a tropical depression, the continued circulation, tropical moisture, and topography can contribute to copious amounts of rainfall. Intense flooding can also occur from tropical depressions and storms that do not reach the intensity levels associated with hurricanes. Storm Suroe The storm surge is perhaps the most dangerous and destructive part of a hurricane. The storm surge is a rapid rise in the level of the water that moves onto land as the eye of the storm makes landfall. Generally speaking, the stronger the hurricane, the greater the storm surge. As a hurricane approaches the coast, its winds drive water toward the shore. Once the edge of the storm reaches the shallow waters of the continental shelf, the water piles up. Winds of hurricane strength force the water onto the shore. At first, the water level climbs slowly, but as the eye of the storm approaches, water rises rapidly. Wave after wave hits the coast as tons of moving water hammer away at any structure built on the coastline. "A cubic yard of water weighs about 1700 pounds and it's almost incompressible," says John Hope, Tropical Coordinator at The Weather Channel. "You might just as well be hit with a solid object as to have this water smashing against a structure on a beach. " The storm surge is greater if a hurricane's track is perpendicular to the coastline, allowing the surge to build higher. The storm surge is also greater if the storm affects a bay or if it makes landfall at high tide. The gfeatest storm surge occurs to the right of where the eye makes landfall. The Winds The winds of a hurricane range from 74 miles per hour (65 knots) in a minimal storm to greater than 155 miles per hour (136 knots) in a catastrophic one. City of La Porte Page 5 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10, 19" 1-1 CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Often accurate readings of high wind gusts during landfall are impossible because the anemometers at reporting wind stations are ripped from their foundations. Wind is responsible for much of the structural damage caused by hurricanes. High winds uproot trees and tear down power lines. The maximum winds from fast moving and powerful storms may remain high, even when the storm is well inland. Often this is actual wind speed combined with the speed of the storm. Flood Hazard Data During two 1998 Tropical Storms, Charley (August 1998) and Frances (September 1998) produced storm surges of 2.5 feet, and 6-8 feet, respectively. The Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) for La Porte shows the Base Flood Elevation (BFE) as low as 15 feet for the VE area adjacent to Galveston Bay, and BFE of 12 feet for zones AE near the Bay. The FIRM designates two types of floodplain: A zone and V zone. All properties directly adjacent to Galveston Bay are designated as VE — "coastal high hazard area." Properties farther inland are designated as AE. These properties are subject to flooding from either riverine or storm surge events. The coastal high hazard area is subject to the combination of storm surge and wave hazard. This area is where the waves during the base flood are at least three feet higher than stillwater elevation. This is the most dangerous toward the south coast of La Porte (where VE zone is more prevalent).

Repetitive Loss Areas Based on a printout from the Federal Emergency Management Agency dated August, 1998, La Porte has 55 repetitive loss properties. A repetitive loss property is defined as a property that two or more NFIP losses of at least $1,000 each have been paid since 1978. The City's repetitive loss properties are plotted in Appendix A. It can be seen that the repetitive losses occur in areas not always prone to coastal storm surge, or found in the floodplain. Because repetitive flooding accounts for approximately 33% of all flood insurance claims payments, a community that wants a CRS classification must prepare a repetitive loss plan. This Floodplain Management Plan will address damage to all repetitive loss areas, and it is being prepared in accordance with CRS guidance. City of La Porte Page 7 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10, 1999 CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Assess the Problem Damage -Prone Buildings Based on water meter records for May, 1999, La Porte has 9,109 single- family homes, 102 non-profit buildings, 85 multi -family buildings, 574 commercial properties, and 53 city -owned buildings. Approximately 1400 buildings are in the floodplain. Approximately 420 floodplain development permits have been issued (residence or business) since 1987. Development Trends Redevelopment will remain within the constraints of the City's zoning ordinance and floodplain ordinance. See zoning map (Appendix B). Development Constraints There are two major constraints floodplain regulations. to development in the City: zoning and Zoning: The zoning ordinance follows the comprehensive plan, which allows the construction of compatible structures and uses. No new commercial development or multi -family housing will encroach into the single-family zones. Please see attached zoning map (Appendix B). Floodplain Regulations: The City has adopted an ordinance that meets the minimum NFIP rules. In A and V Zones, new buildings must be elevated above the base flood elevation. In A zones, commercial buildings can be floodproofed. In the V Zone, all new buildings must be elevated on open pilings or piers so that waves do not batter the building walls. Critical Facilities Several critical facilities have been identified. The most important facilities include the City of La Porte City Hall, Police Station, four Fire Stations, and Public Works. There are no medical facilities in La Porte, so preservation of the Fire Stations and its ambulances is vital for public health and safety. The main evacuation routes through the city are also considered critical facilities. Closing any of the major arteries greatly complicates the process of getting people to safety. State Highway 146 also serves as an evacuation route for communities adjacent to La Porte. Two nursing homes have also been designated as critical facilities: Happy Harbour Methodist Home at 1106 Bayshore Drive, and Fairmont House at 8727 Fairmont Parkway. These deserve special attention during evacuation to ensure that they have enough lead time to remove the residents. Natural Areas There are several areas worth preserving for their natural and beneficial function, but for sake of brevity, only one major area is mentioned in the plan. City of La Porte Page 8 of 26 Planning Department, nnh June 10, 1999 0 • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN The Big Island Slough from the City of La Porte, moves water into the Armand Bayou Nature Center. This 2,500-acre reserve offers a glimpse of three unique ecosystems. An estuarine bayou, all -grass coastal prairie and woodlands are preserved and nurtured here. This environmentally significant area has been designated as one of only four Texas State Coastal Preserves, and is one of the last bayous in the Houston area that is not channelized. The Armand Bayou Nature Center and other natural areas help reduce our flood damage by allowing floodwater to spread over a large area. This reduces flood velocities and provides flood storage to reduce peak flows downstream. Natural floodplains reduce wind and wave impacts, and their vegetation stabilizes soils during flooding. City of La Porte Page 9 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10,1999 • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTTVrTY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Set Goals Community needs and goals were identified when the comprehensive plan was adopted. Based on that plan, the following goals are used to guide the Floodplain Management Plan: 1. Protect lives and property from the hazards of wind, storm surge, and rain. 2. Preserve the existing land use pattern. 3. Ensure continuous police, fire, ambulance, and other public services by repairing and protecting all City structures. 4. Establish safeguards for future development in repetitive loss areas and floodplains. City of La Porte Page 10 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10, 1999 • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Review Possible Activities It is important that the City consider all possible ways to reduce flood losses and protect the natural areas. To ensure that the full range of altematives were reviewed, the strategies and tools recommended by the Unified National Program for Floodplain Management (FEMA Publication 248, 1994) were used. The Unified National Program lists four strategies and numerous tools to prevent or reduce flood losses and to preserve and restore the natural resources and functions of floodplains. The strategies and tools are summarized below: Unified National Program for Floodplain Management (FEMA Publication 248. 1994) Strategy 1: Modify human susceptibility to flood damage and disruption by avoiding hazardous, uneconomic, or unwise use of floodplains. Tools include: • Floodplain regulations, e.g. zoning, to steer development away from hazardous areas or natural areas deserving preservation; subdivision regulations; and building, health and sanitary codes. • Development and redevelopment polices on the design and location of public services, utilities, and critical facilities; land acquisition; open space preservation; and permanent relocation of buildings. • Floodproofing of new buildings and retrofitting of existing ones. • Flood forecasting, warning systems, and emergency plans that prepare people and property for flooding. • Preservation and restoration of the natural resources and functions of floodplains. Strategy 2: Modify the impact of flooding by assisting individuals and communities to prepare for, respond to, and recover from floods. Tools include: • Information and education to assist self-help and protection measures. • Flood emergency measures to protect people and property during the flood. • Disaster assistance, flood insurance, and tax adjustments to reduce the financial impact of flooding. • Post flood recovery plans and programs to help people rebuild and implement mitigation measures to protect against future floods. Strategy 3: Modify flooding through projects that control floodwaters. Tools include: • Dams and reservoirs that store excess waters upstream of development. • Dikes, levees, and floodwalls that keep waters away from developed areas. • Channel alterations that make the channel more efficient, so overbank flooding will be less frequent. • High flow diversions that send excess waters off to undeveloped areas. City of La Porte Page 11 of 26 Planning Deparanent, rmh June 10, 1999 • �7_ CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN • Land treatment to hold as much rain as possible where it falls so it can infiltrate instead of running off. • On -site detention measures to store excess runoff and flood flows. • Shoreline protection measures that protect inland development and account for the natural movement of shoreline features. Strategy 4: Preserve and restore the natural resources and functions of floodplains by maintaining and reestablishing floodplain environments in their natural state. Tools include: • Floodplain, wetlands, and coastal barrier resources regulation, e.g. zoning, to steer development away from hazardous areas or natural areas deserving preservation; subdivision regulations; and building, health and sanitary codes. • Development and redevelopment policies on the design and location of public services, utilities, and critical facilities; land acquisition; open space preservation; permanent relocation of buildings, restoration of floodplains and wetlands; and preservation of natural functions and habitats. • Information and education to make people aware of natural floodplain resources and functions and how to protect them. • Tax adjustments to provide a financial encouragement for leaving lands in their natural state. • Beach nourishment and dune building to protect inland development by maintaining the natural flood protection features. City of La Porte Page 12 of 26 Planning Department, tmh June 10, 1999 • • Repetitive Loss Plan CITY OF LA PORTS, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Summary La Porte has been identified as a repetitive loss community, with a total of fifty- five repetitive loss properties within the city limits. The list of repetitive loss properties obtained from FEMA has been mapped, and a copy of the map is attached as Appendix A. Flooding within the City is primarily associated with stream over -flow, tidal surges, and in some instances inadequate storm sewers or ditches. We have categorized these repetitive loss properties within four major areas, affecting 14 subdivisions. A detailed description of the flooding source as well as proposed solutions are as follows: West La Porte Area Brookglen/College View Spenwick/Spencer Highway Estates Lomax Area Denim & Diamonds Bayou Glen Monument Estates Pinegrove Valley Lomax Gardens Coastal La Porte Area Bayshore Park Sylvan Beach Broadway & "H" South La Porte Area Shady River Shady Oaks Bay Colony Former Bay M.U.D. Subdivisions City of La Porte Page 13 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10, 1999 • • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTTVTIY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN West La Porte Brookglen/College View All of the drainage in this area is a curb and gutter system. The majority of the losses are on cul-de-sacs, where the water runs the length of the block to a catch basin. When Flood Control Ditch #13-112 crests, the water in the subdivision backs up, especially in the cul-de-sacs. Spenwick/Spencer Highway Estates The flooding in this area was predominately caused by a 300-foot ditch that was dug in the middle of the block from Bayer to Flood Control Ditch #B-112-02. Hams County originally dug the ditch on private property. In 1996, after the City of La Porte annexed this area, we did a complete reconstruction project. The City of La Porte obtained authority to dig out this channel therefore alleviating flooding problems. When B112-20 crests, though, there is still a slight delay in the run-off. Brookglen was annexed as part of the College View M.U.D. with Ordinance #1400 on 2/15/1985. Spencer Highway Estates was annexed as part of the Spenwick M.U.D. with Ordinance #1396 on 1/4/1984. These subdivisions were therefore built under the jurisdiction of Hams County and not subject to the regulations of the City. Upon annexation by the City of La Porte, all nonconformities with city ordinances are dismissed or "grandfathered." However, any substantial improvement or substantial damage to structures in the area now would require full compliance with the City's Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance. The subdivisions in west La Porte are subject to significant peak runoff rates from developed upstream areas. The City and HCFCD are studying mitigation action for this area. City of La Porte Page 14 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10, 1999 ! • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Lomax Area The drainage in this area has been a problem for a long time. The Flood Control Ditch #F101-00-00 is being reconstructed in several phases. The problems on North "P" Street are due to the volume of water traveling through the Southern Pacific outfall into the newly dug part of the F101 at Highway 146. The system cannot handle the volume of water at an above average rainfall. The City of La Porte has been experiencing flooding problems in the F101 watershed area for many years. These flooding problems occur during moderate rainfall events, when street flooding often makes roadways impassable. HCFCD along with the City of La Porte has been working to improve drainage in this area. The District completed construction of the ultimate channel downstream of SH146 in 1993. The Department of Transportation has increased the capacity of F101 at SH 146, and HCFCD has also improved the section through Strang Yard. These improvements, along with other improvements to Unit F101-00-00, should reduce the need for onsite detention in the future. Pinegrove Valley The problem at 11818 and 11820 Fieldcrest was caused by the size of ditches on Fieldcrest. Sens Road lacks a sufficient fall in elevation and the size of the culverts are limited. The City has reconstructed the system, which has helped the problem significantly. Hams County has plans to widen Sens Road and adding new culverts, will which also help alleviate the flooding. Lomax The problems at 2226, 2801 and 1606 Sens Road are the same as North "H" Street: Flood Control Ditch #F101 gets full and the water backs -up. Bayou Glen At 111 McCarty Lane, the ditch is cut on the maximum grade of 9% along Browning Lane to North "P" Street The water backs up at the end of North "P" Street due to Flood Control Ditch 13106-06. The cleaning of this ditch would alleviate much of this problem and would help the Meadow Crest Subdivision. Hams County has informed the Public Works Department that this ditch is on the list for reconstruction. 1419 Lemon Lane can also be included in this area. Pinegrove Valley At 11012 and 12020 N. Avenue "L" the RCP along the full length of North Avenue "V are not sized property and the ditch on the south side of the street backs -up. This is due to constriction at Sens Road. This problem should be alleviated with the Sens Road widening. North Avenue "L" falls within Hams County control. City of La Porte Page 15 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10, 1999 0 0 CPIY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Pinegrove Valley The county is trying to alleviate the problem by installing a road crossing across Avenue "L" to move some of the water to the north side ditch. They are also cutting a lateral ditch from North Avenue "L" to Flood Control Ditch F101. Coastal La Porte Bayshore Park 923 Parkway does not have any specific problems. The water drains east to Bayshore, which has an outfall at F-212. In the past twenty years, it has flooded twice, both because of an above average rainfall. F-212 drains into Galveston Bay and tides affect the run-off. This year the Public Works Department installed a new pipe to replace a separated pipe that runs from Bayshore to Galveston Bay. This system is located at Parkway and Bayshore. Sylvan Beach 210 Cypress is a curb and gutter street It retains water as it is designed to do. Only infrequent torrential rainfall events may cause flooding in the area. Broadway & "H" With regard to 816 S. 1't, the drainage has just recently been maintained and the ditch on West "H" at South Id was re -designed to remove more of the water from the alley behind this residence. At 832 and 815 South Broadway, the water drains along Broadway via a curb and gutter system. A new system was installed along Broadway to "I." This consists of 6-foot box culverts to Fairmont Parkway. There is another catch basin on the east side of Broadway that drains water east to F-216-01 on the Arizona Street r.o.w. The system is underground from Broadway to East "G." The RCP from the junction box at the Arizona r.o.w. a East "F" to East "F" is separated and needs to be reset. Also, there is no fall on the open ditch portion to Park Street City of La Porte Page 16 of 26 Planning Department, nnh June 10, 1999 0 • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTTVTTY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN South La Porte Shady Oaks The subdivisions in this part of La Porte are frequently inundated due to unseasonably high tides, and storm surges from tropical storms or hurricanes. Properties in this area can either be directly affected by high coastal waters, or affected by nearby in -land waterways that become backed up due to high tides. Properties in this area are also affected by subsidence, and some structures were built before the FIRM went into effect. However, any substantial improvement or substantial damage to structures in the area now would require full compliance with the City's Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance. Shady River The houses in this subdivision back-up to Taylor Bayou, and it crests at high tides during tropical events. The whole subdivision drains to Taylor Bayou. It is a curb and gutter system. When the bayou is full and tidal conditions are right, the streets can flood. Bay Colony Water in this subdivision flows west along Bay Colony to the system on Sunrise that falls into a creek. This creek is controlled by tidal conditions from its outfall into the Bayport channel. Former Bay M.U.D. Subdivisions Through observations made by Rodney Cox of the Public Works Department, the drainage is adequate. During Topical Storm Frances during the summer of 1998, it was observed that at the Broadway ditch the water runs north to a small bayou that dumps into Taylor Bayou. This is affected by tidal conditions. The bayou spilled over, flooding Broadway. City of La Porte Page 17 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10,1999 0 CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTMTY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN Draft an Action Plan Based on research and discussions, 11 activities (besides those mentioned above in the Repetitive Loss Plan) are recommended to meet the needs and goals listed previously. Activities 1-5 are short range, and Activity 6-11 are long-range solutions. These activities and this plan were the subject of a public meeting on May 20th, 1999. A revised plan was presented to the City Council for adoption by formal resolution on June 10, 1999. The activities are listed below, along with who is responsible for them and when they should be completed. Most of these activities can be accomplished with staff resources. Following each recommended activity is a note on how it would be credited by the CRS. This plan includes activities that are not recognized by the CRS, but are nevertheless important to mitigate future losses and meet the City's needs and goals. Short Range Activities 1) Elevation Certificates on Computer Format • In August of 1999, FEMA will be issuing a new form of Elevation Certificates. Keeping Elevation Certificates in computer format makes them more readily accessible to City staff and citizens. • Responsible Person: Engineer -in -Training • Deadline: Begin implementation August 1999 • CRS Credit: Points are credited for Activity 310 (Elevation Certificates) if the elevation certificate data for the City is kept and made available in computer format. 2) Public Information Program Strategy • The City will establish a public information outreach strategy team that includes representatives of agencies and organizations active in floodplain management and public information. The strategy team (minimum three members) will consist of someone familiar with the community's floodplain management program and at least one representative from outside the community's government. • A written document will be prepared that describes: => The local flood hazard. =:> The flood safety and property protection measure appropriate for that hazard. => The flood -related public information activities currently being implemented within the community (including those by non - government agencies). => Goals for the community's public information program. =:> Process to be followed to monitor and evaluate the projects. • Responsible Person: Engineer -in -Training • Deadline: Have plan ready for review by November, 1999 City of La Porte Page 18 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10,1999 0 • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN • CRS Credit: Points are credited for activity 330, Outreach Project Pursuant to a public information program strategy. 3) Real Estate Agents' Brochure • Work with local area real estate agents to develop and hand out a brochure describing the community's flood hazard. • Person Responsible: Director of Planning • Deadline: January, 2000 • CRS Credit: Credit for Activity 340 can be achieved if real estate agents provide brochures or handouts that advise potential buyers to investigate the flood hazard for a property. 4) Ordinance for Storm Water Management • One of the greatest problems of floodplain management in urbanizing areas in the increase in peak flow caused by watershed development. As forest, fields and farms are covered by impermeable surfaces, such as streets, rooftops and parking lots, more rain runs off at a faster rate. When an area is urbanized, the rate of runoff can increase five -fold or more. A new ordinance addressing the following issues would alleviate this problem: => Regulating developments on a case -by -case basis to ensure that the peak flow of stormwater runoff from each site will be no greater than the runoff from the site before it was developed. => All developments (no matter the size) will be regulated. => Detention is designed for greater than 10-year storm, but smaller than 100-year storm. City inspects private stormwater facilities and has regulatory authority to require the owners to perform appropriate maintenance. Regulations require that, as a condition of building permit, applicant must prepare site plan that accounts for local drainage from and onto adjoining properties. => Regulations require new developments of 5 acres or more to include in the design of their stormwater management facilities appropriate "best management practices that will improve the quality of surface water. • Responsible Person: Director of Planning • Deadline: Draft revisions should be presented to City Council by August, 1999. • CRS Credit: Credit for Activity 450 (Stormwater Management) is provided for adopting an ordinance with the above regulations. 5) Revise City's Building Code • The state has recently published new recommended guidelines for protection buildings from damage by hurricanes. Other higher regulatory standards are recommended by the CRS. These should be reviewed and the following amendments should be incorporated into the Building Code and/or Flood Development Ordinance: City of La Porte Page 19 of 26 Planning Department, rmh June 10, 1999 • • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN => Raise the minimum flood protection level from the base flood elevation (BFE) to eighteen inches above the BFE. All substantially damaged buildings and new buildings must be at or above this level. Prohibit fill within the floodplain and floodway, or new developments are required to provide compensatory storage at hydraulically equivalent sites. Count improvements to building cumulatively so that eventually all buildings will be brought up to flood protection standards. • Responsible Person: Chief Building Official • Deadline: Draft revisions should be presented to City Council by September, 1999. • CRS Credit: All of the recommended changes are credited under Activity 430 (Higher Regulatory Standards). Long Range Activities 6) City Newsletter — Floodplain Outreach • A City Newsletter would allow the City staff and Council to communicate effectively with its citizens, taxpayers and voters. Every issue could contain a different article on floodplain hazards, and the services available to citizens at City Hall. • CRS Credit: Credit would be given through Activity 330. An outreach project to the City must be conducted annually to continue participation in the CRS. 7) Flood Data Maintenance • Input FIRM data into Utility Mapping Drawings. Placing FIRM data on the CAD system can allow for information to be updated electronically, and can display or print a current map. • Responsible Person: Drafting Department • CRS Credit: Credit for Activity 440 can be provided for implementing digital systems that improve access, quality, and/or ease of updating flood data within the community. 8) Preserve Open Space • One of the best ways to prevent flood damage is to keep floodprone areas free from development. In addition to flood protection benefits, preserving open space can greatly enhance the natural and beneficial function that floodplains serve. • Responsible Person: Director of Parks & Recreation • CRS Credit: Credit for Activity 420 can be provided for keeping vacant floodplain lands open. This can be done by keeping the land publicly owned (e.g., a park or golf course), or by regulating development so that there will be no new buildings or filling on the land. 9) Maximize Interagency Coordination • The City should maximize interagency coordination, especially with the Harris County Flood Control District (HCFCD) and TxDOT. This includes setting up regular meetings with HCFCD to review the City's priorities for City of La Porte Page 20 of 26 Planning Department, mih June 10, 1999 0 • CITY OF LA PORTE, TX CRS ACTIVITY 510 FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT PLAN drainage improvements. These meetings will also aid in targeting areas that need infrastructure improvements. 10)City's Hurricane Warning & Response Plan • There is still room for improvement of the City's hurricane warning and response plan. Special attention should be given to warning and evacuating the critical facilities and getting coastal residents to evacuate quickly. 11)Emergency Operations Center (EOC) • The EOC's operation is vital to the City. A flood -free site situated far from the coast needs to be evaluated. • CRS Credit: None. However, if the City wants CRS credit for protecting critical facilities to the 500-year flood level (Activity 430 — Higher Regulatory Standards), it must enforce the provisions on its own construction projects.

Herrera / Carol Buttler Department: Administration XXX Report Resolution Ordinance Exhibits: 1. Master Planning Program Packet SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION Once Council approved the agreement in February for the Master Planning Phase of the new community library, Mr. Hall and staff met with several target groups. At this time, City staff and Mr. Hall would like Council to receive a report on the sequence of events that have occurred over the last four (4) months and to offer comments on the progress to date for the library. By receiving comments from the Friends of the Library, Harris County staff, a group of senior citizens, and librarians from La Porte Independent School District, Mr. Hall and his firm have been able to provide preliminary conceptual drawings for the library's interior and exterior views. Last month, Mr. Hall spoke at the monthly Chamber of Commerce luncheon to offer members of the business community an opportunity to comment and have a sense of what the City and County envision. The nest step would be to schedule a community wide meeting offering the general public an opportunity to see the preliminary conceptual drawings and to offer their comments. Action Required by Council Direct the City Manager to schedule a community meeting for the near future to complete the comment phases of the Master Planning process.

Her SUBJECT: Bay Area Transportation Partnership The attached proposal from the Bay Area Transportation Partnership is one which the City of La Porte may gain benefit by joining their organization. As you know the Port of Houston is moving ahead their Bay Port Complex program. Because of this issue and other issues associated with this project such as noise, air, and rail I would like to recommend we participate with this group for the next year. If we do not benefit from this participation after the first year I will recommend we not continue with them. I would like to place this matter for your consideration on the June 14, 1999 City Council Meeting. The cost to join will be approximately $5,600.00 and can be funded out of our economic development fund. Should you have any questions, Please feel free to contact me directly. RTH: sld Attachment From: Connie Elston To: Bob Herrera/LaPorte Page 1 of 1 • June 3, 1999 To: Bob Herrera, City Manager City of LaPorte Tel: 281-842-1839/Fax 281-471-5020 From: Connie Elston 281-338-1062/Tel Date: 6/3/99 Time: 11:59:30 AM • Re: Membership "Fair Share Computation" Dear Ron: muv ybq S' L400 As a follow-up to our discussion last week., I am forwarding an overview our "Fair Share Computation' The Partnership's overall "Goal" is $95,000 in membership from the listed municipalities. The "Fair Share" for La Porte is 5.92% of $95,000 which equals $5,623.00. The "Fair Share" is determined by taking the average of three separate averages shown in Columns A. B & C. For example, the La Porte City census is 27,910 which is 8.0% of the Cities Population Subtotal of 348,503. Columns B & C• are determined the same way by dividing the individual city amount by the total for all cities. Example: (A) 27,910/348,505 = 0.08% (B) 1,389,785/33,175,040 — 4.19% (C) 5,560/18 = 5.560% (1/18d' equal share) A/B/C 8.0 + 4.19 + 5.56 = 17.75/3 = 5.92% .0592% x 95,000 = $5,623 I hope this will answer some of your questions. Please call me at (281-3380-1062) if you have additional questions or need more information. Thank you for your interest and support. Connie 0 • 9t; o#4*m ? Fanneely me CLnrlate 7►�,euka 711 W.

Pages 3-6 of the newsletter highlights the Partnership's four (4) active Commute Alternative Committees which address transportation demand management for our region (Long Rang Planning, Transit Services, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and Transportation Enhancement). The goals of these Committees are to identify commute alternatives and mobility projects that will be needed to meet existing and future transportation needs for our region. Demonstrating the strong need for regional coordination, we currently have 350+ business and community leaders serving on these Committees. On Page 7, you will note that the Partnership's membership base continues to grow. We currently have 151 members, reflecting a membership growth of 300% since the first quarter of 1997. We feel we have a very positive story to share with regard to our accomplishments and strong business and community support. Regional chambers of commerce address the needs of small business, economic development councils address business development and retention. The Partnership addresses infrastructure and mobility issues which are key to regional growth and development. The Partnership extends an invitation to the City of LaPorte to join the Partnership. We welcome your participation as a Board Member and look forward to the City's representation on our Committees. Enclosed you will find an invoice in the amount of $5,623.00 which covers the City of LaPorte's Fair Share Contribution for the period November 1998 - November 1999. The Partnership looks forward to working with your City as we continue to address transportation demand management for our region.
