Council Letter 42
Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: Request for Change to CM (Commercial-Manufacturing)
This request for rezoning at 3698 Glenwood was considered at the Council 's
July 19 meeting along with a Planning Commission recommendation for denial ,
but action was deferred for further study.
A land use survey in the area has been completed by the Planning Department
and the results reported to the Council in a memorandum, Council Memo No. 14.
A copy of this memorandum is attached.
The property owner, Clyde Goodwill , is seeking a change from RM-H (Residential
Miltiple Dwelling - High Density) to CM (Commercial Manufacturing) for a
50-by-150-foot lot. The applicant wishes to use the lot for an office, game
room and storage for construction equipment. A wood-frame storage building
is situated on the property at the present time.
The Planning Commission voted 5-0 to recommend denial based on the fact that
land use in the area is predominatly single family residential and the change
would constitute spot zoning.
Notices of the public hearing were sent to 15 owners of property within 200
feet of the lot in question. Responses were received from four, in favor of
the change. None responded in opposition. The applicant presented a petition
signed by 14 residents of the surrounding area approving construction of "a
24-by-40 foot office building and garage for personal use."
It is recommended that the application be denied.

Council Memo No. 14
Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: Rezoning of Study Request for Eleventh Street and Glenwood Area
The land use survey for the rezoning study requested by the City Council for
the Eleventh Street and Glenwood Avenue area has been completed by the City
staff and a copy of it accompanies this memo.
In summary, there are 41 residential lots, 19 vacant lots, and 5 commercial
lots. The predominant land use is residential . Under e the circumstances,
the
planning staff cannot recommend any zoning district above the existing RM-H
district. This district already allows high density multi-family develop-
ment and offices with a specific use permit.
The Planning staff is requesting that the City Council review the accompanying
land use survey of the area and reconsider its request for a complete zoning
study and public hearing. If, after review, the Council is still in favor
of such a study, the staff will incur the expenses for advertising and
notification of property owners and schedule a joint public hearing for
September 19, 1983.
The planning staff recommends that the study not be undertaken and that
File 867-Z be brought back on the Council agenda for final consideration by
the City Council .

Council Letter 45
Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: Lafin Drive-Landfill Road Paving Contract
Bids were received from 14 contractors Wednesday on the Lafin Drive-landfill
road paving contract and eight were below the cost estimate in the landfill
development budget.
The bids, ranging from $259,891 to $434,165, have been checked and tabulated
and the $259,891 low bid of Trotti and Thomson, Inc. will be recommended for
acceptance. Based on this bid, the contract cost would be about $61,000 less
than the $311,000 estimate.
.The bids were as follows:
Trotti & Thomson $259,891.00
Mason 268,868.96
Gatlin 290,787.80
JCN Pavers 293,362.00
Russ Miller 298,226.56
Troy Dodson 301,822.00
Gulf Coast 306,406.40
Baytown 309,850.20
Maco 313,171.00
Bella 313,399.40
B & C 335,266.74
Greer 391 ,674.67
Teal 425,376.55
C & P 434,165.00
The contract would be for paving of Lafin Drive and the landfill access road
as 24-foot-wide asphalt flexible base streets. Lafin Drive would be paved
from the Fannett Road to the Water Reclamation Plant and the access road would
be constructed from the end of Lafin Drive eastward to the landfill entrance.
The pavement on Lafin Drive would be widened to 36 feet to include a turning
lane at the entrance to the new fleet service center between the Fannett Road
and the Water Reclamation Plant. Construction of the access road would in-
clude erection of a low-profile corrugated aluminum bridge across Drainage
District 6 ditch, identified as Ditch No. 11, near the landfill entrance. The
specifications call for completion of the contract in 45 working days and set
September 12 as the deadline for completion of the bridge in order to insure
that the access road will be open for construction of the landfill .
Council Letter 45
August 4, 1983
Page 2
Lafin Drive and the access road would be surfaced with hot mix asphalt 1-1/2
inches thick. A 10-inch limestone base would be used for the access road.
On Lafin Drive, six inches of limestone base would be added to the material in
place.
This would be the first contract to be let under the Minority Business Enter-
prise policy requiring subcontracts with minority businesses equivalent to at
least 10 percent of the total contract. The award would be made subject to
the contractor filing a report showing that all MBE requirements have been met.
It is recommended that a resolution be adopted letting the contract to the
low bidder, Trotti and Thomson, Inc.

Subject: Criminal Justice Grant for Microfilm Processor
The Police Department has been awarded a Criminal Justice matching grant to
pay about 60 percent of the cost of purchasing a microfilm processor for the
Identification Bureau.
The grant, in the amount of $14,351.75, would require an expenditure of
$9,791.79 in city funds to cover the $26,143.50 estimated cost of the pro-
cessor. The grant is scheduled for funding in Fiscal Year 1984, and the city's
snare could be included in next year's budget.
No additional personnel would be required to operate the equipment.
The microfilm processor would increase the capacity of the department's re-
cord-keeping system and facilitate the storage and retrieval of information.
I1; would permit much of the information in hardcopy files on offense reports,
criminal records and the like to be transferred to microfilm cards, which
require less space and are easier to handle.
The expansion is necessary to enable the system to accommodate an existing
backlog of material .
It is recommended that the Council adopt a resolution authorizing execution
of an agreement with the Governor's Office of General Counsel and the Criminal
Justice Division for purchase of the microfilm processor.

Subject: Polygraph Unit for Arson Investigations
A criminal justice matching grant has been approved for the purchase of a
polygraph unit for the Fire Department's Arson Division.
The grant, scheduled for Fiscal Year 1984, would pay $2,020 of the $5,145
estimated cost of the unit. Funds for the local match, in the amount of
$2,225, could be included in next year' s budget. No additional personnel
would be required.
The polygraph equipment would be used in verification of statements taken in
arson investigations. It would enable investigators to work faster and more
effectively and improve prospects for detection and conviction in incendiary
fires.
It is recommended that the Council adopt a resolution authorizing execution
of a grant agreement with the Governor's Office of General Counsel and the

`subject: Emergency Repairs to Water Well No. 1 , Loeb Pumping Station
Water Well No. 1, located on the site of the Loeb Pumping Station and tanks,
developed bearing and line shaft problems during the night of August 4, ap-
parently due to a malfunction of the oil lubrication system, and has been
shut down.
The well normally produces 6.5 million gallons of water daily and represents
approximately 40% of our ground water capacity. Remaining ground water capa-
city is approximately 10.5 mgd, providing both the other two wells continue
to operate satisfactorily.
Due to the reduced capacity of the surface water treatment plant to provide
for modifications and improvements, we feel that an emergency does exist
and request authorization be granted to secure the services of Layne Texas
Company of Houston to rework this well at the earliest possible date. We
have contacted their service division and they have indicated that a work-
over rig will be available Wednesday, August 10, or Thursday, August 11,
and the work could be moved to our site and work commenced if the work is
authorized by Tuesday, August 9. A job of this nature usually takes 4 to
5 working days, which means we could possibly have the well back in service
by early the week of August 15.
Cost of the last rework of this nature about a year ago was $11, 091.50.
This job should run about the same since the company indicates there have
been no price increases in any charge basis such as labor, equipment or
parts. Charge will be based on actual time, parts and equipment required
to do the work and will be monitored by a city representative. Funds are
available in the current Water Production Division budget.
It is recommended that this resolution be approved.

Council Letter 46
Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: Health Department Termite Treatment
The Health Department has been infested with termites for over a year. A
colony of termites was spot treated in the loading dock area and employee
break room approximately one year ago, causing the colony to go underground
and resurface in a different portion of the building. Considerable remodel-
ing work was required to repair the damage.
A colony of termites was discovered a few weeks ago in a nursing records and
forms storage area. Estimates have been received from three firms to treat
the old hospital building and attached wood frame two=story house. All plumb-
ing outlets, expansion joints , and piers must be drilled and treated, and the
perimeter of the slab must be trenched and treated. Two bids specify the work
will be guaranteed for one year, with four-year retreatment warranty available.
The third bid specifies a five-year guarantee in the initial cos,..
Bill Clark Pest Control , Inc. , has bid $2 ,950 to treat both buildings for one
year, with a $250 retreatment warranty for four additional years. Orkin
Exterminating Company, Inc. , has bid $2 ,700 to treat both buildings for one
year, with a $351 retreatment warranty for each year thereafter. Shane's Ter-
mite and Pest Control has bid $3,700 to treat both buildinqs for a five-year
quarantee, with no renewal required.
It is recommended that the Orkin bid be accepted as the low bid exclusive
of the warranty, which is not proposed to be purchased, as the Health De-
partment Administrator feels that the one-time treatment will suffice.

WHEREAS, on August 4 or 5 , 1983, the City of
Beaumont' s Water Well No. 1 malfunctioned and has been shut
down; and,
WHEREAS, Water Well No . 1 normally produces 40% of the
City' s groundwater supply and its repair is an emergency which
may affect the public health;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE
CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT:
THAT the City Manager be, and he is hereby , authorized to
employ Layne Texas Company to make emergency repairs to Water
Well No. 1 .

Council Letter 48
Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: Emergency Repairs to Water Well No. 1 , Loeb Pumping Station
Water Well No. 1, located on the site of the Loeb Pumping Station and tanks,
developed bearing and line shaft problems during the night of August 4, ap-
parently due to a malfunction of the oil lubrication system, and has been
shut down.
The well normally produces 6.5 million gallons of water daily and represents
approximately 40% of our ground water capacity. Remaining ground water capa-
city is approximately 10.5 mgd, providing both the other two wells continue
to operate satisfactorily.
Due to the reduced capacity of the surface water treatment plant to provide
for modifications and improvements, we feel that an emergency does exist
and request authorization be granted to secure the services of Layne Texas
Company of Houston to rework this well at the earliest possible date. We
have contacted their service division and they have indicated that a work-
over rig will be available Wednesday, August 10, or Thursday, August 11,
and the work could be moved to our site and work commenced if the work is
authorized by Tuesday, August 9. A job of this nature usually takes 4 to
5 working days, which means we could possibly have the well back in service
by early the week of August 15.
Cost of the last rework of this nature about a year ago was $11, 091.50.
This job should run about the same since the company indicates there have
been no price increases in any charge basis such as labor, equipment or
parts. Charge will be based on actual time, parts and equipment required
to do the work and will be monitored by a city representative. Funds are
available in the current Water Production Division budget.
It is recommended that this resolution be approved.
