Tohme, P.E., Director of City Utilities MEETING DATE: October 28, 2014 REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution approving a change order to the contract with Allco, LLC, related to the Grit Pump Replacement — Wastewater Treatment Plant Project. BACKGROUND The City Council approved a contract with Allco, LLC, on August 16, 2011, in the amount of $1,111,359.00. The contract will furnish all labor, materials, and equipment to remove and replace the existing belt press pumps at the Wastewater Treatment Plant at 4900 Lafin Road. The proposed change order will increase the contract amount by $40,514.00 to furnish the labor, equipment, and materials to lower the 45- degree angle portion of the belt press conveyor to 15- degrees and install a new conveyor belt. The sludge pumps for the belt press and clarifiers have been in operation for more than 20 years.

The sludge regularly varies in composition and thus requires pumps that can maintain continual operation. These deteriorated pumps are in need of replacement and the improvements to the sludge transportation system will greatly improve the efficiency of wastewater treatment.

PASSED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Beaumont this the 28th day of October, 2014. - Mayor Becky Ames - F BEAUMONT TEXAS TO: City Council FROM: Kyle Hayes, City Manager PREPARED BY: Laura Clark, Chief Financial Officer MEETING DATE: October 28, 2014 REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution terminating a contract with CIMA Utility of Beaumont for mowing privately -owned developed and vacant properties and awarding a contract to Texas Institute of the Blind and Handicapped Industries (TIBH) for the same. BACKGROUND Privately owned, developed and vacant properties are in violation of the City's weed ordinance when uncultivated growth exceeds twelve (12) inches. Property owners are notified of the violation and given a specified time to bring the property into compliance. If property owners fail to comply with the ordinance, the City's contractor mows the property and the property owner is billed. Council Resolution 12 -181 awarded the contract to CIMA Utility (CIMA) on August 21, 2012. The contract is divided into four (4) sections and CIMA was awarded one (1) section. On December 10, 2013, with Resolution 13 -275, Council suspended CIMA's contract with the City for three (3) months for failing to maintain current automobile liability insurance. On April 22, 2014 and May 2, 2014, CIMA received a letter from the City stating the company was behind schedule and not performing according to specifications. On August 26, 2014, Code Enforcement stopped assigning any new work to CIMA so the company could focus on the large amount of work that was not completed. On September 16, 2014, City Staff met with a CIMA representative to determine how to successfully eliminate the backlog of 216 cuts. The representative provided a copy of a letter from Mr. Moye, the owner, stating CIMA would complete twenty (20) lots per day until the backlog was completed. This plan was accepted by both parties. A letter was sent to CIMA documenting the meeting and explaining what was expected from the company. A weekly meeting with CIMA and City staff was scheduled on Tuesdays to discuss the previous weeks work and expectations for the next week until all the lots were completed. Termination of Mowing Contract October 28, 2014 Page 2 On September 19, 2014 a letter was sent to CIMA explaining that two CIMA employees contacted the Purchasing Division because they had not received payment for work that was completed. A hold was placed on all payments from the City until this issue was resolved to the satisfaction of all parties. The hold was released on September 24, 2014 after the two CIMA employees confirmed that they received all monies owed to them. On Tuesday, October 7, 2014, Mr. Moye did not attend a scheduled meeting with City Staff. Mr. Moye was contacted that he would not receive any additional work from the City until he provided information that was requested for the meeting he did not attend. A meeting was then scheduled for the next day and Mr. Moye attended that meeting. From September 17, 2014 thru October 7, 2014, CIMA had submitted 110 lots as complete but upon inspection by City staff, eighty -eight (88) were accepted as complete and twenty —two (22) did not meet specifications. CIMA should have successfully completed 225 to 300 lots in the three week time frame. On October 8, 2014, CIMA was notified that City Staff would be recommending termination of the contract and that the total backlog was one hundred eighty -two (182) lots. CIMA was told that they would not receive any additional lots until these were completed. As of October 21, 2014, eighty two (82) lots were submitted as complete. Three (3) lots did not meet specifications and were rescheduled to be completed. According to the agreed -upon plan to reduce the backlog, CIMA should have successfully completed one hundred -fifty (150) to two hundred (200) lots in this time frame. In summary, CIMA Utilities has struggled to meet specifications and complete cuts timely since April of 2014. As outlined above there have been other issues including insurance and payment of employees that have affected this contract. This has caused Code Enforcement scheduling issues, complaints from citizens in the neighborhood, and ultimately delays in enforcement of ordinance violations. Therefore, it is recommended that the contract be terminated. The new cuts in Section 1 will be distributed among the current vendors doing work in the other sections during the non - growing season. When the growing season starts in 2015, Staff recommends the award of contract to the Texas Institute of the Blind and Handicapped Industries (TIBH). Any services provided by TIBH are exempt from competitive bidding. The price quote from TIBH is attached and is in line with the prices being paid under the current contracts. The contract will expire on August 26, 2015 with no renewal options. FUNDING SOURCE Not applicable. RECOMMENDATION Approval of resolution.

Major Drive. BACKGROUND Phuc N. Le has applied for a zone change. Mr. Le is purchasing the property from Ms. Linda Chester who represents the estate of Leroy Minton. The 4.981 acre tract is located at 4525 N. Major Drive. Once the property has been purchased, Mr. Le plans to construct a new apartment complex. At a Joint Public Hearing held October 20, 2014, the Planning Commission recommended 5:0 to approve a zone change from A -R (Agricultural - Residential) to RM -H (Residential Multiple Family Dwelling- Highest Density) District at 4525 N. Major Drive. FUNDING SOURCE Not applicable. RECOMMENDATION Approval of ordinance. September 23, 2014 ATTN: Planning and Zoning Division Room 201, City Nall Beaumont, TX 77701 Dear Zoning Committee Members, Phuc Nhat Le, MD 7925 Windmeadow St Beaumont, TX 77713 901 -283 -9903 beaumontfamilycare @yahoo.com My name is Phuc Nhat Le ( "Nate ") and I am writing this letter to request for permission to change the zoning of a property (land) being purchased located on 4525 North Major Drive. The completion of this purchase is based upon the contingent plan and agreement between me, the buyer, and the seller that the requested zone changes are approved. At this time, I would like to request the changes to be made from its current status of "agriculture" to "multi- family dwellings" with my sincere intention to use this land for future development of new apartment buildings. This property is located next to Breakwater Bay apartments and also directly across from the Stoneleigh on Major apartments. i. As a new physician relocated to Beaumont in 2010, 1 can still remember how terribly home -sick I was and how I wanted nothing more than to just move back to my hometown in Tennessee, where I grew up since I was a child. Aside from that, the other social anxiety that nearly caused me to move back home was the exhausting quest for an ideal apartment, or the lack of its availability at that time. But with much patience and due time, I was able to find one that was close to my work and conveniently located in the center of town. Since then, I have grown very fond of this charming city and its wonderful residents. If the permission is granted, I can foresee the local builders to begin construction of our beautiful and affordable apartment buildings as early as next year. It is reasonable to believe that in due time, Beaumont Texas, can become a place that anyone and everyone can call home. Beaumont is now my permanent home. Thank you so much for your consideration.

BACKGROUND Jennifer Ford, C.E.O. of Starpoint Educational Enrichment Center, L.L.C., requested a specific use permit. Ms. Ford would like to utilize the property as a behavioral and academic center /secondary school offering behavioral therapies for students ages 3 -21 who are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other neurological or cognitive syndromes, as well as a general education Pre -K Program. The proposed use will employ eight (8) teachers /teacher assistants, one (1) nurse and six (6) administrative staff. The facility will serve 112 students. Hours of operation will be 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. At last months' meeting, a discussion arose regarding access and circulation of traffic. Further review of the parking lot has brought a concern to the efficient movement of vehicles in and out of the area. With the arrangement of parking stalls and the proposed parallel parking along the fence opposite the parking lot it would be very difficult and unsafe for 100 vehicles to enter and exit the property without a turnaround in place already. It is possible that the paved area beyond the gates could be utilized as such an area, however, this area has been designated as an outdoor play area for the school children, a use that conflicts permitting traffic to circulate within the property. A second concern would be congestion that could cause lines of vehicles parked along Washington Boulevard during peak traffic flow. At a Joint Public Hearing held October 20, 2014, the Planning Commission recommended 5:0 to deny a specific use permit to allow a behavioral and academic center /secondary school in a GC -MD (General Commercial - Multiple Family Dwelling) District at 4960 Washington Boulevard.

BACKGROUND The City of Beaumont Planning Division has applied for the revocation of a specific use permit. In August, 2012, the City Council approved a specific use permit to Mr. Rodney Cooley to allow antique furniture restoration at 1801 North Street with the condition that he: 1. Replace the 6' tall wood screening fence missing along the west property line and install a 4' tall wood screening fence or a 6' wide landscape bed along the west 26' of the north property line. A recent inspection of the property showed that the condition had not been met. Mr. Cooley was notified of the violation, but failed to bring the property into compliance. On September 30, 2014, a certified letter was sent to Mr. Cooley notifying him of this impending hearing to revoke the specific use permit. This property has been an issue for some time now. Beginning in early 2013, Mr. Cooley was notified that he had not completed a Certificate of Occupancy. Since then charges have been filed for two separate counts of failure to obtain a Certificate of Occupancy and comply with the specific use permit condition as well as one count of furniture kept outside. To date, Mr. Cooley has refused to pay a fine or appear before Municipal Court. Water records show that Mr. Cooley has never opened an account with the water department, however he continues to place heavy trash at the curb for pick -up. The attached inspection report shows the scope of work involved. Revocation of this specific use permit would be one additional tool to obtain compliance for the specific use permit requirements. At a Joint Public Hearing held October 20, 2014, the Planning Commission recommended 5:0 to approve the revocation of a specific use permit to allow antique furniture restoration in an RCR -H (Residential Conservation and Revitalization- Historic) District at 1801 North Street.

Cooper, City Attorney MEETING DATE: October 28, 2014 REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider an ordinance denying the Entergy Texas Application for Distribution Cost Recovery Factor rate increase on file with the City of Beaumont. BACKGROUND On or about September 18, 2014, Entergy Texas filed with each city in its service area an Application for Approval of a Distribution Cost Recovery Factor (DCRF). Entergy has also filed the same application with the Public Utility Commission of Texas covering its customers located outside the cities' boundaries. Entergy is requesting the implementation of a rider that would collect approximately $7 million in additional annual revenue to cover increased distribution expenses. Residential customers would be charged approximately $4.5 million or 64% of the requested increase, which amounts to approximately $0.78 per month for an average residential customer using 1000 kWh per month. The cities' retained utilities attorney and rate consultants have analyzed this request and are recommending denial of the application. The reason for denial is based primarily on the fact that the proposed adjustments are inconsistent with the directives of the PUC as it pertains to a DCRF. The Public Utilities Commission developed a detailed formula that utilities must follow when calculating the revenue requirements for a DCRF. The preliminary findings of the rate consultants indicate that both of the adjustments proposed by Entergy do not conform with the mandated formula. This deviation in calculations results in an overstatement of the need for the requested DCRF rate increase. Denial of the application by the cities would allow for the appeal to the PUCT for a full review and ultimate resolution. FUNDING SOURCE Not applicable. RECOMMENDATION Approval of ordinance. ORDINANCE NO. AN ORDINANCE BY THE CITY OF BEAUMONT, TEXAS ( "CITY ") DENYING THE DISTRIBUTION COST RECOVERY FACTOR RATE INCREASE REQUEST OF ENTERGY TEXAS, INC. FILED ON SEPTEMBER 18, 2014; SETTING JUST AND REASONABLE RATES FOR ENTERGY TEXAS, INC. FOR SERVICE WITHIN THE MUNICIPAL LIMITS; FINDING THAT THE MEETING COMPLIES WITH THE OPEN MEETINGS ACT; MAKING OTHER FINDINGS. WHEREAS, on or about September 18, 2014 Entergy Texas, Inc. ( "Entergy ") filed an Application for Authority to Implement a Distribution Cost Recovery Factor with the City to increase electric rates by implementing new riders pursuant to Public Utility Regulatory Act ( "PURA ") Section 36.210; WHEREAS, the proposed Distribution Cost Recovery Factor rates proposed by Entergy Texas, Inc. would increase customer rates in the Entergy Service Area by $6,980,180 per year, WHEREAS, Entergy the jurisdictional deadline for the City to act in this rate matter is November 17, 2014; WHEREAS, the expert utility rate consultants retained to review the Company's Distribution Cost Recovery Factor rates on behalf of the City have issued a preliminary report and concluded that Entergy has incorrectly calculated the proposed Distribution Cost Recovery Factor and substantially overstated the claimed need for the rate increase requested. The consultants' analyses support substantial reductions to the Entergy request. WHEREAS, the rate experts retained for the rate review have concluded that Entergy's rate filing request is unsupported; WHEREAS, Entergy has failed to properly support and justify the rate class increase amounts for Entergy's proposed class allocation of certain distribution costs; WHEREAS, Entergy has failed to justify Entergy's proposed rates included in lighting service, WHEREAS, the statutory deadline to act on Entergy's Distribution Cost Recovery Factor rate increase request is November 17, 2014; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT, TEXAS: Section 1.
