FOR A PERIOD OF ONE HUNDRED TWENTY (120) <br />DAYS FROM THE EFFECTIVE DATE THEREOF; PROVIDING FOR THE DELIVERY <br />OF A CERTIFIED COpy OF THIS ORDINANCE TO SAID UTILITY; AND <br />PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE FOR THIS ORDINANCE. <br /> <br />BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF LA PORTE: <br /> <br />Section 1. Entex, Inc., a private corporation, is a <br /> <br />public utility supplying gas within the corporate limits of the <br /> <br />City of La Porte. <br /> <br />Section 2. On the 30th day of March, 1977, pursuant <br /> <br />to the requirements of Paragraph (a), Section 43, Public Utility <br />. Regulatory Act of the State of Texas, codified as Article l446c, <br />Revised Civil Statutes of Texas (1925), said utility filed a <br />Statement of Intent with said City as the regulatory authority <br /> <br />having original jurisdiction over rate increases within its <br /> <br />corporate limits. <br /> <br />Section 3. Paragraph (d) of Section 43 of said Act <br />authorizes said City, after delivery to the affected utility of <br /> <br />a statement in writing of its reasons therefor and pending such <br /> <br />hearing and a decision thereon, to suspend the operation of the <br /> <br />schedule set forth in said Statement of Intent for a period not <br />. to exceed one hundred twenty (120) days beyond the date on which <br />the schedule of rates would otherwise go into effect. <br /> <br />Section 4. The City Council of said City has determined <br /> <br />and here now find that such rates should be suspended for such <br /> <br />one hundred twenty (120) day period for the reason that the <br />complexity of the case will in all probability not permit such <br /> <br />public hearing to be entered upon and concluded prior to the May 4 <br /> <br />effective date of such schedule and for the further reason <br /> <br />that said, Statement of Intent is ambiguous, vague and indefinite <br /> <br />regarding whether it is a "major change" or not in accord with <br /> <br />Article l446(c), Section 43(b). <br /> <br />'. <br />
