Both research and practical tips received at training sessions promote the importance of a website as a tool for economic development. While the City is represented on both Bay Area Houston Economic Partnership and the Alliance Houston Port Region websites, neither the City nor the LP Development Corp. have a web site that fully profiles the community, incentives or relevant economic development tools. Staff believes the funding of a quality economic development website is an effective and efficient part of an overall economic development strategy. The City's intern, Mike Stokes, has done substantial research into the contents of several economic websites and has produced an outline of proposed content for a website. Staff requests the LP Development Corp. approve an expenditure of an estimated $10,000 to fund the development ofa quality economic development website. An early estimate for website development was $8,000-$10,000. Steps from here would be; ./ ConfmnJrecommend funding source (and use of funds) (potentially from unexpended funds in current budget) ./ Secure competitive quotes ./ Select vendor Action Reauired bv LP Development Corporation: Provide direction to staff regarding the funding and development of an economic development website.

Too Search Enqine Terms of 2006 BEST ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MARKETING STRATEGIES OF 2006 Most experts anticipated that the Internet would become the #1 marketing strategy for economic developers by 2006 and that is exactly what happened. In a national survey the Internet blew away all other marketing strategies in the economic development profession.* Here are the top 4 most effective marketing strategies according to the survey: #1 Website 620/0 #2 Marketing with a regional/state organization 30% #3 Familiarization Tours. 24% #4 Public Relations 19% Responding to its effectiveness, in 2007 there will be a strong trend toward economic developers reallocating resources and investing heavily in improving their websites with dynamic website services that provide the information businesses need. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT WEBSITE MUST-HAVES FOR 2007 According to Site Selection magazine, "Online databases of available buildings and sites became a must for top- performing organizations in 2005. Those groups that didn't have this service simply were not able to compete." Virtually every agency that made the magazineaCMs list of top economic development organizations "used a state-of-the-art Web site to generate interest from corporate site selectors and consu Itants." In 2006 the most effective and fastest-growing online strategy for communicating the benefits of expanding, relocating or growing a business was the inclusion of Geographic Information System (GIS) property databases that include site-specific demographic analysis, business reports and interactive mapping. By the end of 2006, the majority of the largest cities in the United States were already served by this technology. Economic development organizations that want to stay competitive must implement this strategy in 2007. SITE SELECTION IS FASTER AND DIFFERENT According to the 2006 article "The Internet Has Changed the Dynamics of Site Selection" by Bob Ady, Founder of Ady International, "In the past five or six years, the dynamics of the site selection industry have changed more than the previous 40 years combined. What's driving such change? Simply put, the availability of information through the Internet. The site selection consultant uses the information from a community's web site and other online sources. If a community doesn't have a website, the website cannot easily be found or it doesn't have the right type of information, the consultant moves on to other communities that have the information he or she needs," Changes in Site Selection Length of typical site selection search Scope of initial screening Percentage of site selection process done remotely versus in- person Number-one tool for learning about communities Then Now (5-6 Years ago) (2006) Six months or more Four to eight weeks One or two dozen communities Hundreds of communities 40/60 80/20 Personal visit Website/Internet Responding to its effectiveness, in 2007 there will be a strong trend toward economic developers reallocating resources and investing heavily in improving their websites with dynamic website services that provide the information businesses need.

AGENDA ITEM Agenda Date Requested: March 5 2007 Appropriation Requested By: Source of Funds: Department: Account Number: Report: X Resolution: Ordinance: Amount Budgeted: Exhibits: Report Amount Requested: Exhibits: Budgeted Item: VIfS NO Exhibits: SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION In an earlier discussion with the Chairman and later at the LP Development Corp. meeting, the topic of the City/County plans for Sylvan Beach Shoreline Project was briefly discussed. The board requested a presentation on the project. The project will be a critical component to both the County's future development of the park and to the Hotel project under consideration. Mr. Barr, the City's Parks and Recreation Director will be present at the March 5, 2007 meeting to provide an overview ofthe project. His report is enclosed. Action Required bv LP Development Corporation: Receive and discuss report on proposed Sylvan Beach Shoreline Project. Approved for LP Development Corporation A!!enda r.9~7 (Date Sylvan Beach Shoreline Protection and Beach Re-nourishment Project Report 4B Board Meeting March 5, 2007 Historical OvetView Sylvan Beach Park is located in La Porte, eastern Harris County,on Galveston Bay. The pre-existing beach began a steady decline as a direct impact of the completion of the Houston Ship Channel in 1928 due primarily to erosion caused by wind, ship's wake damage, and subsidence over the ensuing years culminating with the loss of this historic beach in 1961 (Hurricane Carla), making it a "beach" in name only. Erosion continues substantially in portions of the shoreline where the bulkhead has failed, This project will restore the beach and provide erosion protection for the park shoreline, allowing future generations to enjoy the only public beach in Harris County. project Scope Project will consist of construction of approximately 2,000 linear feet of shoreline protection which indudes construction of revetment and pocket beaches containing Beach Fill, Rock Groins, Graded Stone Revetment, Concrete Walkway and Cellular Concrete Mattress, and associated s~e and drainage 'M>rk as required to stabilize the shoreline of Sylvan Beach Park, located in La Porte, Harris County, Texas, and \Nholly owned by Harris County. USACE, the Port of Houston Authority B.U.G., the City of La Porte, Harris County, and the local TGLQ office are all ready to support this project. La Porte and Harris County are committed to future maintenance and upkeep of the site, Project Benefits, Economic, and Environmental Impacts This project would provide restoration and conservation of an important coastal resource in Harris County and La Porte. Historically, it was the most important recreational site and focal point in La Porte and East Harris County. Its restoration would add a tremendous recreational amenity back to the park and the community. Sylvan Beach would be the only public park with Galveston Bay coastal beach access in all of Harris County, This project can provide safe, quality shoreline access to over 100,000 annual visitors from Harris County. Recreational activities and environmental education are primary reasons for pursuit of the project as a way to educate the public on the importance of coastal natura resources. In addition, the project will also provide economic stimulation for area businesses, restaurants, and hotels, as well as to stimulate community development and improve Quality of Life for the area, Completion of this project will protect historic and valuable government property for the recreational and environmental education and enjoyment of present and future Texas residents. The stabilization and protection of the shoreline would certainly enhance the efforts to procure a first-class hotel with its accompanying economic impact for our city and East Harris County. La Porte Independent School District elementary and secondary education classes currently use the existing pier for sampling of water quality and marine life as a feature of its "hands on" environmental and ecological studies. This project will allow enhance and expansion of that capability in the future. Project History and Estimated Costs Phase I - Alternatives analysis funded through CEPRA (Coastal Project #1114), City of La Porte matching partner; design chosen, completed July 2002. Phase II - Project Design and permitting through USACE by URS Corporation, funded through CEPRA with City of La Porte and Harris County as matching partners, completed August 2003. USACE permit #23069 issued. Project cost estimates have been established and are available for either two construction phases, or a single project. The mobilization and demobilization costs increase by approximately $121,000, from $2,810,433 to $2,931,433, if two phases are undertaken. Funding Efforts to Date Harris County has previously committed Precinct 2 park funds as well as City of La Porte commitment to funds for their combined 40% share of the project under the CEPRA guidelines as administered by the Texas General Land Office. Both the City of La Porte and Harris County expect to recover their funding outlay through the La Porte TIRZ #1 for the project. There is no formal funding commitment for either HC or the City of La Porte if the grant is not funded through CEPRA. CEPRA funding for this project has been previously applied for and it was selected as an "Alternate Project' in both 2003 and 2005 cycles, but in both cycles, the project was not selected as an alternate. The City of La Porte applied for funding through a FEMA restoration program in 2005, but was notified that the project did not qualify. The City of La Porte has also applied for Coastal Impact Assistance Program (ClAP) funding through both the state (TGLO) and Harris County shares of these federal funds. TGLO funding was not approved, and Harris County has submitted this project as a Tier Two project, with potential funding with 2008 funds. Potential Project Problems with Continued Delay First, there has already been a substantial increase in estimated costs for this project from its inception to the present. The original estimate presented to the Corps of Engineers in 2003 for the project was $1.9 million. The CEPRA estimate in Cycle 3 (2004) was $2.4 million, and the latest estimate from our engineering firm, URS, in August 2006 was $2.8 million. Each year the projec is delayed will add substantially to the cost of the project. Based on this pattern, the cost of the project, if started in early 2008, would be approximately $3.1 million (all other things being equal), Second, our U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Permit (#23069) was issued in December 2003 and is set to expire on December 31, 2008. If the project is not completed by that date an extension must be obtained. And, although the Corps is amenable to an extension provided there are no mitigating circumstances, we may be required to meet changed and more stringent USACE regulations, guidelines, and requirements that have been placed in effect since our approval in 2003. Any change in requirements would most likely add to the overall cost of the project. ..-- Q) +-' Q) '+- ,^ - 0 v, c. -c E ~ C,+- 8 0 ~ .2 ~ (J.) I N () a.. a..

AGENDA ITEM Agenda Date Requested: March 5 2007 Appropriation Requested By: Source of Funds: Department: .\dlllinidr~tign Account Number: Report: Resolution: Ordinance: Amount Budgeted: Exhibits: Report Amount Requested: Exhibits: 4B Eligible Projects Budgeted Item: VES NO Exhibits: Cash Flow Worksheet SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION Attached is a report by Stephen Barr regarding the development of a Joint Venture Sports Complex with the City of Pasadena. The report will provide a history of the funding and the projects development into a joint venture. While researching other 4B issues it was noted that both Amateur Athletic Facilities and Public Parks are eligible projects. While City Council was prepared to issue an additional $1.5 million in Certificates of Obligation for the joint venture the debt service would be paid from the City's General Fund. Since park development is still a permissible 4B project and economically viable for the LP Development Corporation staff would like to discuss with Council and the LP Development Corp. the pledging of 4B funds for the debt service related to the additional $1.5 million needed for the joint venture. At the meeting Michael Dolby will cover the [mancial position of the LP Development Corp. and the Long Range Plan Worksheet included in you package. Action Required bv LP Development Corporation: Provide direction to staff regarding the funding of the Joint Venture Sports Complex with the City of Pasadena. Approved for LP Development Corporation Aeenda ~Ilt 'l ( Date Joint Venture Sports Complex Project Report 4B Board Meeting March 5, 2007 Overview In 2002 citizens of La Porte approved the sale of General Obligation bonds to provide: a) $1.2M for the development of the City's 33 acre west side park property located on Canada Road, and b) $2M for the development of a youth baseball complex. Since that time the City has undergone preliminary discussion with the City of Pasadena and, to a lesser degree with Harris County, to participate in a joint venture sports complex located just south of Fairmont Parkway and east of the Pasadena Convention Center on land owned by the City of Pasadena, but located in the City of La Porte's extra-territorial jurisdiction, Council Direction In September 2006 Council directed staff to implement a conceptual design and preliminary cost estimate for the project. The report provided back by Randall- Porterfield Architects, Inc. includes a conceptual design, and preliminary cost estimate for the project, and is enclosed for your review. Report Summary Conceptual Design - The conceptual design shows a total of 23 fields, 9 of which are designated as La Porte Fields and two "Shared Fields", % usage of each of these fields would be designated for La Porte, making our total number of 1 0 fields. Pasadena would have 12 fields, with % usage of the two "Shared Fields", making a total of 13 fields for their operations which is acceptable to them. This design, while still conceptual, shows that we can get a working design that will meet both cities' needs for the project. The design provides 920 parking spaces, with overflow parking available through a pedestrian bridge and pathway to the Pasadena Convention Center parking areas. The design also provides pavilions for restrooms, concessions, and shelter from inclement weather, as well as play areas that include basketball, volleyball and children's play activities, and a Dog Park, Preliminary Cost Estimate -The total preliminary numbers for the project, including contingency and an 8% annual inflation factor, is $12,525,488. Overall, through cost sharing, aggressive marketing, and design modification and monitoring, the Pasadena and La Porte staff are confident that La Porte's share of the project can be reduced to $3.5M, Funding The proposed agreement would split the funding on a 40%-60% basis, with the City of La Porte funding approximately 40%, and the City of Pasadena funding approximately 60% of the total project. As you may recall, the City of La Porte has $2M ready for the project. Through the methods related in the previous paragraph, staffs of both cities are confident that we can reduce the total cost of the project to approximately $9M. The following is a summary of the proposed cost savings, based on the preliminary cost estimate, and identified cost savings measures. Council gave direction to sell Certificates of Obligation for the additional $1.5M that will be required for the La Porte share. Staff Recommendation The La Porte Boy's Baseball Association is very much in favor of consolidating their baseball operations for league play to a single location. Although if this plan goes through, they will continue to practice at the Fairmont fields, I'm sure the surrounding homeowners will be grateful for having organized activities end at 9 pm instead of 11 pm every night. The ability to consolidate games at one site will allow them to provide their maintenance activities more effectively, After discussing the project and issues brought forth, if Council directs us to move forward with the project, we are proposing the following action plan: . Prepare an Interlocal Agreement between the two cities for Design Services, The Selection process for the architecUengineering firm would be included in the agreement. This agreement should take 120- 150 days to complete. · A second Interlocal Agreement would then be presented, for Construction and Operations, with assigned areas of operational responsibility and facility oversight. Construction of the facility, depending on weather and other considerations, should also be completed in 120-150 days. Given lead time and contingencies, the entire project should be completed somewhere in the last quarter of 2007 or first quarter of 2008, · Council should note that once a decision has been made on the joint venture sports complex, we can move forward with design of the Westside park property. The design concept is set for the park, but will require changing if the joint venture project is scrapped. f.
