REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution accepting the Certified Tax Roll
Summary for the tax year 2015 (fiscal year 2016).
BACKGROUND
Pursuant to the Texas Property Tax Code, Section 26.09, the Certified Tax Roll Summary must be
approved by the City Council. On September 15, 2015, Council approved the tax roll as certified
by the Jefferson County Appraisal District with a taxable value of $6,935,933,700. The final
Certified Tax Roll has a taxable value of $6,933,869,899 or $2,063,801 less than what was
originally certified by the appraisal district. This decrease is due to more exemptions being
recognized in the final roll.

REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution approving the purchase of firefighter
protective clothing from Casco Industries, Inc., of Houston in the
estimated amount of $150,750.
BACKGROUND
The Fire Department has tested several brands of fire protective clothing over the past several
years. They have determined that the line from Globe Manufacturing Co., offers ease of
movement, excellent protection for fire fighters, and best value to the City. The clothing is made
of fire retardant materials to provide protection from burns and exposure to hazardous chemicals
during firefighting operations, and provides protection from blood-borne pathogens. The Globe
clothing tested has proven superior in performance to that of other manufacturers.
Casco Industries, Inc., of Houston is the exclusive and sole source vendor for Globe
Manufacturing in Texas and surrounding states.
FUNDING SOURCE
General Fund.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of resolution.
RESOLUTION NO.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE

Inc., of Houston, Texas, the sole local source for Globe Manufacturing Co. equipment,
for the purchase of an estimated quantity of 67 sets of fire protective clothing for
firefighters at $2,250 per set for an estimated total cost of $150,750; and,

TO: City Council
FROM: Kyle Hayes, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Laura Clark, Chief Financial Officer
MEETING DATE: January 12, 2016
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution approving the award of a contract for
refurbishing and remounting one (1) ambulance body to Frazer,
Ltd., of Bellaire, Texas in the estimated amount of $64,925.
BACKGROUND
Beaumont EMS operates ambulances consisting of an ambulance box module on heavy-duty
pickup chassis. The box modules, when periodically refurbished, have a longer service life than
the chassis on which they are mounted. New modules cost approximately $150,000 each. It is
therefore cost effective to refurbish and upgrade the existing modules to the standard of the new
module than to replace them. Replacement chassis and refurbishment and remounts are requested
in the City's budget process. The Fleet Superintendent evaluated the request and recommended
this work due to the age and service damage of the existing module.
Pricing for this contract is obtained through the Houston -Galveston Area Council (H -GAC)
Cooperative Purchasing Program. H -GAC is a cooperative purchasing association providing
cities and political subdivisions with the means to purchase specialized equipment at volume
pricing. H -GAC complies with the State of Texas procurement statutes. The price includes the
H -GAC administrative Fee of $600.
Warranty and service is provided by Frazer Ltd., for the lifetime of the ambulance box module
while in possession of the original owner.
FUNDING SOURCE
Capital Reserve Fund.

PREPARED BY: Laura Clark, Chief Financial Officer(
MEETING DATE: January 12, 2016
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider a resolution approving an agreement with Richard
James, III, and The Sports Society for American Health to hold the
2016 Gusher Marathon on February 27, 2016.
BACKGROUND
In recent years it has become very popular for organizations to hold fun runs, 5K runs, color runs
and marathons for fundraisers or to promote health and wellness in the city. The Sports Society
for American Health held its first Gusher Marathon in May of 2010 and has held one annually in
March since that time. This has become a highly attended event that brings participants in from
around the region.
The marathon, like many others, is not a City -sponsored event and as such any costs incurred for
police traffic control, street cleanup, street barricading, etc., performed by employees of the City of
Beaumont on overtime are billed to the organization hosting the event. The route for the
marathon and the number of participants requires extensive traffic control and has resulted in
approximately $40,000 in costs annually. Since the first marathon, payment of this amount has
been challenging for The Sports Society for American Health. As a result, the City requires a
deposit of 50% of the estimated costs. The attached agreement allows for the balance to be paid
in full by April 12, 2016 or for special payment arrangements with final payment due on or before
July 12, 2016.
City Staff has met with Mr. James and in an effort to make the marathon cost effective for him, has
determined it is best for the City's Emergency Management team to manage the event which
includes providing and setting up all of the required barricading and message boards as well as
manning the intersections and picking up the barricades. With these additional services provided
by the City, the estimate for the 2016 Gusher Marathon is $42,148 with a down payment required
of $21,074 on or before February 12, 2016.
An agreement is attached for your review.
