Subject: Repairs to Caterpillar Compactor
COMMENTS
Authorization is requested to award a contract for the replacement of compaction wheel components on a 1993
Caterpillar Compactor,one of two used at the landfill for refuse compaction.
The compaction wheels contain hardened steel compaction teeth,which consist of a base, a cover tip, and cover tip
hardware. The compaction process erodes the cover tips over time. If the cover tips are replaced before the base is
exposed to wear,the existing base may be re-used with replacement cover tips. The current cover tips have been in
service since the purchase of the unit in 1993,and have a life expectancy of approximately 5-6 years.
The Fleet Maintenance Division has determined that this is the appropriate time to replace the tips in order to avoid
complete tooth replacement. The cover tip replacement costs$19,360,while complete replacement of the steel teeth
costs approximately$33,000.
State of Texas statutes provide for an exemption to competitive bidding if the procurement is available from only one
source due to patents. Caron Compactor Company of Modesto, California is the patent holder and sole source
manufacturer of the compaction wheels and components used on this unit. The patent is for the specially designed
tooth arrangement which has proven to provide the superior traction and demolition effect necessary for maximum
compaction.
It is recommended that a contract be awarded to Caron Compactor Company in the amount of$19,360 for the
replacement of compaction wheel components. The contract will include all parts and labor necessary for the
replacement of all cover tips and cover tip hardware. The work will be performed at the landfill, and will be completed
in approximately three(3)days. The components are warranted for a period of 48 months or 10,000 service hours.
Funds for this expenditure are available in the Fleet Maintenance Division's budget.

Services Sales and Use Tax and Texas Health and Safety Code: Special Provisions Relating to Hospitals

know, at the time of purchase,will be used in a manner other than that expressed in this certificate.

Dear Mr. Hayes,
As you are aware, within the current contract with the Beaumont Police Officers
Association and the City of Beaumont, the newly created position of police specialist is
now in place. We have tested for the position of police specialists and currently have a
second eligibility list in place. As of June 7, 1999 Glen Durst was promoted to the
vacant grade IV position. This created a vacancy in the Grade III rank that I wish to
eliminate. I am therefore requesting that the City Ordinance Section 21-75 be
amended reducing the number of positions in the Grade III category by one, from 14 to
13 authorized positions and increasing the Grade I authorized personnel by one
position, from 178 to 179. This reassigned position will assist in adding flexibility to
department personnel job assignments by allowing a police specialist to be assigned to
investigative positions. I will be glad to provide any additional information on this
matter if necessary.
Sincerely,
i

of 1996. The IMC repllaced the Standard Mechanical Code previously used by the City.
Since the International Codes encompass the entire nation, there are occasionally provisions
in these codes that do not take into consideration the geographical location of a particular
municipality. One of tliese provisions is a requirement for outdoor ventilation air in new
residential construction. While this requirement may be beneficial for other areas, problems
could be encountered ut Beaumont due to the high humidity.
Several local mechanical contractors and home builders were contacted to solicit their input.
All agreed that the fresh air intake provision is not appropriate for this area. Additionally,
they indicated that if fresh air is required, the cost of a new home will increase and
construction techniques will change dramatically.
It is requested that City Council amend Chapter 6 Article VII, Section 6-171 of the Code
of Ordinances as follows:
Section 403.3 is amended to read as follows:
Sec. 403.3 Ventilation Rate
Delete Outdoor Ventilation Air Rate requirement for
private dwellings, single and multiple, from Table 403.3.

Consider Community Development Block Grant funding for the Beaumont Census
2000 Complete Count Committee to promote the 2000 census
Community Development Block Grant funds in the amount of$5,000 would help the Census
2000 Complete Count Committee promote the 2000 census. This committee was appointed by
the Mayor in December of 1998. An accurate count ensures the City, County and State a fair
share of federal funds, accurate socioeconomic data and appropriate political representation.

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
.._-_... .. .
June 15, 1999
PD 315/99
TO: Kyle Hayes, Acting City Manager
FROM: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Director
SUBJECT: CDBG Funding for City of Beaumont Census 2000 Complete Count Committee
COMMENTS
I would like to request $ 5,000 in CDBG funds to help the Census 2000 Complete Count Committee
promote the 2000 census. This committee was appointed by Mayor Moore in December, 1998.
The role of the Complete Count Committee is to develop and implement a Census 2000 awareness
campaign that will influence every person living in Beaumont to complete the census questionnaire in
a timely and accurate manner.
Historically, minorities and low and moderate income individuals have been undercounted. The major
thrust of the Complete Count Committee will be to focus on these groups.
The cost of promotional materials is the responsibility of the local governments. The U.S. Bureau of
the Census has not been appropriated the money to provide these types of materials to the 39,000
governmental entities nationwide.
As can be seen from the enclosed materials, the focus will be on schools, neighborhood associations,
churches, the media and community-based organizations. Monies will be used for producing a variety
of promotional materials. These materials will be distributed, concentrating in those areas of the city
with large populations of minorities and low and moderate income individuals.
The counting of every individual in the City of Beaumont cannot be overstated. An accurate count
ensures the City, the County and the State a fair share of federal funds, accurate socioeconomic data
on its citizens and appropriate political representation.

CHAPTER t - THE COMPLETE COUNT COMMITTEE PROGRAM
For Census 2000, the Census Bureau is offering state, local, and tribal governments the
opportunity to participate in a number of programs and activities that will contribute to a more
accurate count. One of these programs, the Complete Count Committee Program, is a
cooperative effort between governments and the Census Bureau to incorporate local know ledge.
expertise, influence, and resources to enhance census efforts in data collection, recruiting, and
promotional activities.
Established by the highest-elected government official, Complete Count Committees are
comprised of key influential community leaders including representatives from government.
education, media, community and religious organizations, and businesses. The Complete Count
Committee embodies the importance of cooperative efforts between state, local, and tribal
governments: the communities; and the Census Bureau.
Get started on your Complete Count Committee program soon! Identify community leaders and
gatekeepers to serve as committee members; develop a community-specific plan of action for
Census 2000; and take the lead in communicating the importance of participating in the census.
A. Role of the Local Complete Count Committee
1. Goal of the Complete Count Committee
• Make everyone in the community aware of Census 2000.
• Motivate communities to participate by filling out the census form and returning it
immediately.
2. Objectives of the Complete Count Committee
• Develop a local targeted plan of action to support Census 2000 operations.
recruiting, and promotion.
• Use highly visible and well-respected local figures to increase community support
for and response to the census.
• Promote the census to community residents through government departments,
particularly those agencies with extensive public contacts.
• Implement activities that will improve census participation by all residents,
especially historically undercounted segments of the population.
4
• Emphasize the Census Bureau's commitment to confidentiality to further increase
participation in the census.
• Augment media programs, publicity, and promotions conducted by the Census
Bureau.
• Provide local knowledge and intelligence that will assist Census Bureau's
operational activities and programs.
• Support Census Bureau's programs and activities that promote and improve the
census.
• Support Census Bureau's recruitment of employees needed to conduct the census.
B. How to Organize Your Committee
The Complete Count Committee can function at many levels of government. For example,
many Complete Count Committees are formed by city governments. However, in rural
areas of the country, it might be more appropriate for the Complete Count Committee to
operate at the county or township level. In some cases, several adjoining counties have
come together to form a Complete Count Committee. Also, in some instances Complete
Count Committees can be established through or coordinated by umbrella government units
such as the Councils of Government, Regional Commissions, and County Associations.
Other structures may already exist in your community for planning and implementing local
promotional activities. These structures may be highly effective and serve as a perfect
vehicle for implementing the work of a Complete Count Committee. If so, we encourage
you to use such structures.
1. Appointing a Chairperson and Committee Members
The chairperson and members of the committee should be well-respected and
influential leaders and "gatekeepers" from all segments of the community, for
example, business, labor, local government, homeless, religious and educational
organizations, neighborhood associations, and ethnic and minority organizations. All
of the people appointed to the committee should be willing to invest time, resources,
and energy in this project.
i
2. Naming the Committee
You may wish to call your committee something other than a Complete Count
Committee. We are providing a few suggestions:
(1) (your locality) Committee for Census 2000
(2) (your locality) Planning Committee for Census 2000
(3) (your locality) Census 2000 Community Action Committee
3. Period of Service
The committee chairperson and other members should be appointed by the highest-
elected official to serve from April 1998 through June 2000. This period should allow
sufficient time in advance of Census Day to plan and carry out activities designed to
encourage cooperation and assist the local census offices in their data collection
activities. Since the census is not taken in one day, the activities of the committee
should continue for most of the collection process, with the peak impact of the
committee targeted towards April 1, 2000.
4. Forming Subcommittees
The chairperson may wish to divide the members of the committee into subcommittees
based on the activities that the committee plans to undertake. For example, a
subcommittee might be established to identify local officials and other persons of
influence to record public service announcements, and appear on local television and
radio shows about the census. A second subcommittee might target the educational
arena and work to ensure that the Census in the Schools materials are being used in the
schools. A third subcommittee might target local businesses and encourage them to
post census materials and sponsor local events. While another subcommittee might
identify areas where there are large concentrations of persons who speak languages
other than English.
5. Announcing the Formation of the Committee
We encourage you to publicize your efforts to support the census by highlighting the
important work your committee will be performing over the two year period. We have
provided a sample press release (Appendix A)that can be used in announcing the
formation of the Complete Count Committee to the public. Spaces have been left
blank in which local names of officials and committee members can be inserted. This
is simply a suggested format.
6
6. Reporting
We would appreciate receiving information about the activities of your Complete
Count Committee so we can share your outstanding work and accomplishments with
our advisory committees and other stakeholders as well as including them in our
publications. We will use examples of the activities you have implemented as models
for strengthening future local census efforts. Helpful examples might include news
clippings, texts of speeches, and copies of promotional materials.

D. Recommended Local Complete('�nnt ( nmmittee Activities
Listed below are a few examples of the many supportive activities which the committee
could undertake to best complement the Census 2000 effort. Of course, committees are
encouraged to include their own ideas. We hope that you will take our general ideas and
add your local flavor and expertise. To implement some of these activities successfully, the
committee might want to explore sources of local funding or seek donated materials and
services from corporate sponsors. However, some of these activities can be carried out with
little or no cost.
A Census Bureau Government Specialist will be available to assist Complete Count
Committees with general information and keep them abreast of Census 2000 operations and
schedule of activities. (See Appendix B for the names and telephone numbers of the
Partnership Coordinators in the Regional Census Centers.)

Consider a resolution authorizing intervention in the Entergy/Gulf States fuel case
Information from the City Attorney is attached for your review.
INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
City of Beaumont, Texas
City Attorneys Office
Date: June 24, 1999
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Lane Nichols, City Attorney
Subject: Entergy/Gulf States (EGS)
Re: Refunds from EGS' 1996 Rate Case and New Fuel Reconciliation Case
COMMENTS
As a result of the settlement of the 1996 rate case, in addition to an immediate
reduction of electric rates, the company was required to make retroactive refunds back to June
1, 1996. 1 have attached a copy of the agreement with EGS requiring the retroactive refund.
Clearly, from paragraph three, the refunds are to be based on the period from June 1, 1996 to the
effective date of the final order.
Recently our lawyers and others in the case informed EGS that they had understated
the refund by approximately Twenty-Two Million ($22,000,000) Dollars. EGS had calculated the
refund using 1995 rather than 1996 revenues.
On June 10, EGS filed a case with the PUC to determine the correct method to be used
to calculate the refunds. We request authorization to intervene in that case to assure that the
refunds are calculated properly.
THE NEW FUEL CASE
By terms of its settlement agreement in the last rate case, EGS was required to file a
fuel reconciliation case by July 15. On June 9, EGS filed a request with the PUC to be relieved
of filing nuclear fuel information required by the rules of the PUC. In the last combined rate/fuel
case, the Commission adopted a performance base rate making standard for River Bend for use
in future cases. The standard encompassed both base rates and fuel. With the recent legislation
which provides for competition in the electric industry, it is clear that the standard cannot be
applied to base rates since base rates will be frozen. It is unclear whether the standard can or
should be amended to apply only to fuel. It is our belief that the legislation complicates things
will be needed in this fuel case. Even without this
and that more rather than less information
complication, we do not think a new performance mechanism can be implemented for River Bend
without the basic information on nuclear fuel costs.

From: Lane Nichols, City Attorney
Subject: Entergy/Gulf States (EGS)
Re: Refunds from EGS" 1996 Rate Case and New Fuel Reconcilliation Case
Therefore, we are requesting authority to intervene in the fuel case which will be filed on
or before July 15 and to oppose allowing EGS to file less information in :such fuel case than that
required by the PUC. Additionally, we are requesting authority to oppose efforts by EGS to base
refunds from their last rate case on revenues different than that required) by the agreement EGS
made with the cities.

Mr. Marry P. Wright
Attorney-At-Law
1221 Dallas
Port Neches, Texas 77651
Dear Mr. Wright:
Entergy Gulf Stag, Inc. (Ear_-gy) L-Is hec:. ad=ise� that several Cities have
engaged consultants to review the reasonableness of Entergy's rates and that such
review has determined that our present rates are excessive. Entergy acknowledges
that Cities have an obligation as regulatory authorities to take appropriate action
under §2.211 of PURA if they conclude our rates are unreasonable. Entergy further
understands that it is the Cities' position that the stipulation in Docket 11292 before
the PUC (the "Merger Docket") provides that final rates shall be effective from the
date of initiation of such inquiry.
The Cities' Steering Committee has recommended that a rate inquiry into the
reasonableness of Entergy's rates be initiated and some Cities have initiated such an
inquiry. However, the stipulation in Docket 11292 requires that Entergy file a rage
proceeding in November 1996 utilizing a test year ending June 30, 1996.
Accordingly, Entergy wishes to avoid the time and expense of multiple filings and
proceedings.
Therefore, in consideration of your City foregoing pursuit of such rate
inquiry, Entergy files this formal stipulation and agrees as follows_
1. Any overall Texas retail base rate reduction finally ordered in such
November, 1996 filing by the applicable Iocal regulatory authorities, or in
JJ ., ee 1�.cL rn.► Jtc +i+ 1410 blILr.A. rv?%LLA �.t1 N U1 + L A1USULJ 4Uvv4 UUS
eveat of an appeal, the Public Utility Couur ssion ("Final Order")
shall be retroactive throughout its Texas retail system to June 1, 1996.
However, no base rate increase, either overall Texas retail or to any class
or rate classification, shall be retroactive. In no case shall aay rate within
your City exceed tl,.e same rate elsewhere within Entergy's Texas retail
system for such retroactive period.
2. Any sttch overall base rate decrease for the period June 1, 1996 through
the effective date of new rages set in the final order shall be returned to
customers either through refunds or bill credits to be determined in the
final order and will earn interest— for the period starting June 1, 1996 and
ending with the completion of the refunds or bill credits to customers — at
Entergy's a:;,"Lorize ovez-a:1 rc:,. of tern,. esL:-cl:sre :n the final order.
3. Any refunds or credits will be returned to base rage customer classes, and
then to rate classifications within those base rate customer classes, based
on (1) the current rate design for base rates actually in place during the
period from Juni 1, 1996 and prior to the effective date of new rates set in
the Final Order and (2) the relative base rate revenue collected from each
of the customer classes and rate classifications during that period.
4. Mutually agrees to support and comply with all provisions of this
stipulation filed with the local regulatory authorities before such
authorities, the Public Utility Commission and. the Courts. Further, for
purposes of such November; 1996 proceeding only, Entergy waives all
objections to the setting of an effective date prior to final order, all
objections to retroactive implemeamtion of any rate reduction to June 1,
1996, and right to retroactive implementation of any rate increase or
recovery thereof through surcharge or otherwise arising out of the
November 1996 filing, any right to the filing of a test year other than the
one indicated in the merger docket stipulation, all objections to the
requirement of payment of interest on refunds or credits, or, without

stipulation.

RESOLUTION NO.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF BEAUMONT:
WHEREAS, Entergy Gulf States ("EGS" or"Company") has informed the Cities and
other parties that it intends to file a fuel rate case seeking to surcharge additional fuel
charges to Texas ratepayers; and,
WHEREAS, the Company is seeking an exception to the rules of the Public Utility
Commission so it can avoid filing all information required by such rules to be filed in such
fuel rate case; and,
WHEREAS, the Company has filed with the Public Utility Commission a request to
base refunds owed to customers from its 1996 rate case (Docket 16705) on hypothetical
rather than actual amounts contrary to its agreement with the Cities and commission
precedent; and,
WHEREAS, the Cities have a duty to seek fair and reasonable rates for both the
Company and ratepayers within the Cities.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE
CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT:
THAT the City of Beaumont shall participate with other Cities as follows:
1. to intervene in the fuel case which the Company is expected to file at the
Public Utility Commission seeking appropriate regulatory scrutiny and the
exercise of the Cities' original jurisdiction;
2. to oppose any effort by the Company to obtain an exception allowing it to file
less information in such fuel rate case than required by the rules of the
Public Utility Commission; and
3. to oppose the efforts of the Company to base refunds due from its 1996 rate
case (Docket 16705) on hypothetical rather than actual revenues.
All such actions shall be taken pursuant to the direction of the Cities' Steering
Committee which shall have authority to engage attorneys, rate consultants and all
necessary personnel as authorized by the Public Utility Regulatory Act and to direct the
actions of such representatives in the above proceedings. Cities' reasonable rate case
expenses are required to be reimbursed by the Company pursuant to the Public Utility
Regulatory Act, therefore, the Steering Committee is directed to obtain reimbursement
from the Company of all reasonable expenses.

CITY OF BEAUMONT
PUBLIC WORKS
INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
June 14, 1999
TO: Kyle Hayes, Interim City Manager
FROM: Tom Warner, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: NPDES PERMIT
COMMENTS
In 1990, Congress passed the Clean Water Act (CWA) which, with subsequent
amendments, established the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES). NPDES requires cities having populations greater than 100,000 people
to obtain a permit to discharge storm water collected by the city's storm sewer system
into "public waters." In compliance with the provisions of this legislation the City of
Beaumont and Jefferson County Drainage District No. 6 (DD#6), applied for and,
effective October 1, 1998,were issued by USEPA,a permit for the discharge of storm
water to the Neches River and Hillebrandt Bayou.
The NPDES Storm Water permit requires the City to monitor the quality of storm
water discharges and to report the findings annually to USEPA Region 6 in Dallas.
The permit also requires the implementation of Best Management Practices (BMP's)
designed to reduce the maximum extent practicable pollutants bome in storm water
collected by the City's storm sewer system. Accomplishing of these goals will
require: 1) extensive field collection and laboratory evaluation of storm water
sampling data; 2) creation of various databases to track and evaluate the
effectiveness of the many BMP's required by the permit; 3) training City field
personnel to recognize and properly report various environmental conditions affecting
water quality; 4) qualification and quantification of data in an effort to evaluate the
effectiveness of individual and collective BMP's; 5)the compilation of data required
by USEPA and; 6) the preparation of annual and interim reports to USEPA and
Texas Natural.Resource Conservation Commission (TNRCC).
Public Works/Engineering has limited staff assignable to the accomplishment of the
work required by the NPDES Storm Water Permit and has determined that the
services of a professional engineering group will be needed to augment the efforts
of City personnel. The Engineering group will assist in: 1)the preparation of BMP
guidance documents and training workshop materials; 2)the preparation of reports;
3) the formulation of local Ordinances which may be required for the proper

implementation of the BMP program and; 4)to lend a national presence to the City's
interface with USEPA. Total expenditure for the first 12 months is estimated to not
exceed $265,880.00.
The Public Works Department will be available to discuss the NPDES requirements
during the June 29, 1999 City Council Work Session.
