RECOMMENDATION The administration recommends approval of the request to abandon a 320' x 60' section of right-of- way of Cheek Street between Alabama Avenue north to the abandoned Colorado Avenue, subject to the retention of a 60' x 320' utility easement. BACKGROUND Lamar University is presently in the process of constructing a 526-unit student housing complex. To provide access to these accommodations, Lamar is proposing to construct an access entrance to the complex in the present Cheek Street right-of-way. The university is requesting this abandonment in order to provide traffic control and security for the students. Lamar owns the property on both sides of the right-of-way and to the north. A portion of Cheek Street, to the north, was abandoned by City Council in 1983. In addition, portions of other streets in the immediate vicinity of this request have been abandoned over the years. A memorandum explaining the request was sent to interested departments and utility companies. There is an existing 6" water main, a fire hydrant, a 12" sanitary sewer line and a 2" gas line in the right-of-way. The applicant has verbally agreed to the City retaining a 60' wide utility easement. BUDGETARYIMPACT None.

Bonczek, City Manager PREPARED BY: Tom Warner, Public Works Director MEETING DATE: December 5, 2000 AGENDA MEMO DATE: November 28, 2000 REQUESTED ACTION: City Council consider a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with the Lower Neches Valley Authority (LNVA) for participation in the construction and operation/maintenance of the Neches River Salt Water Barrier Project. RECOMMENDATION Administration recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with the LNVA for the City's share of the construction and operation/maintenance costs associated with the Neches River Salt Water Barrier Project. BACKGROUND In September of 1977, the City entered into an agreement with the LNVA to share in the construction and operation/maintenance costs of the Neches River Salt Water Barrier. The project was to be funded by the Department of the Army, LNVA and the City of Beaumont. The City's share for construction in 1977 was $400,000. The City would also be responsible for twelve and one-half(12 1/z)percent of the annual operating/maintenance costs associated with the barrier. The total estimated construction cost of the barrier in 1977 was $56 million. The salt water barrier was never constructed in accordance with this agreement. The Department of Army and the LNVA entered into a new agreement for the construction of the salt water barrier in May 2000. The new estimated cost of the barrier is $57 million with the local share projected to be twenty-five(25)percent or$14.2 million. The LNVA requested the City to participate in the local share in the same percentage amount as in 1977. This will place the City's share at nineteen (19) percent or approximately $2.8 million. The basis for the City's contribution in 1977 could not be determined. A method to determine a fair and equitable method for allocating local cost sharing was developed based on water rights that the LNVA and City have to the Neches River. Currently, the LNVA and City have water rights of 341 and 50 million gallons per day (mgd), respectively from the Neches River. The City's 50 mgd is 14.7 percent of the amount of water the LNVA may take from the Neches River. Applying this percentage to the local share of$14.2 million, the City's share would be approximately$2 million. In further negotiations with the LNVA this amount was reduced to$1.8 million. The City will still be responsible for twelve and one-half (12 1/2) percent of the annual operating/maintenance costs. The annual operating/maintenance cost of the barrier to the City is approximately $63,000 per year and may consist of cash or in kind services in lieu of cash. BUDGETARY IMPACT The benefit of the salt water barrier to the City is the additional protection it will provide to the City's fresh water supply. Funds are available in the water fund for the City's $1.8 million share for construction of the barrier. Annual operating/maintenance funds will also be included in the water fund after the project has been completed. PREVIOUS ACTION The City Council entered into an agreement to participate in the project with the LNVA in 1977. The approval of this agreement will reinforce the City' commitment to this project. SUBSEQUENT ACTION None RECOMMENDED BY City Manager, Public Works Director and Water Utilities Manager. RECOMMENDED MOTION Approve/Deny authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with the LNVA for the City's participation in the construction and operation/maintenance of the Neches River Salt Water Barrier. ,.. ... .,..w> November 28,2000 WHEREAS, the Chief of Engineers has recommended the construction of a salt water barrier in the Neches River at or near Beaumont, Texas for the purpose of preventing the upstream movement of salt water or other pollutants into the portion of the river from which the City of Beaumont and the Lower Neches Valley Authority withdraw water for distribution by Lower Neches Valley Authority for municipal, industrial and agricultural use and for treatment and distribution as potable drinking water by the City of Beaumont, and WHEREAS, following the completion of studies by the United States Army Corps of Engineers and the completion by that agency of the necessary plans and specifications the Congress will be requested to appropriate the funds for the construction of such salt water barrier; and WHEREAS, some share of the construction, operational and maintenance costs of said project will be required to be contributed by local interests; and WHEREAS, the share of the total construction costs which «-ill be required to be contributed by local interests will be in the amount of$14,200,000 and that local interests will be required to accept responsibility for the payment of a portion of the annual costs of operating and maintaining the project when completed, which portion has been estimated to be in the amount of$450,000 per annum at current prices; and WHEREAS, both Lower Neches Valley Authority and the City of Beaumont, Texas will benefit from the construction of said salt water barrier and are willing to accept responsibility for the contribution of the portions of capital costs and operation and maintenance expenses above mentioned; and WHEREAS, in order to assure the earliest possible action in providing for the construction of said salt water barrier it is necessary that assurance be given to the Secretary of the Army that local interests will contribute toward the first cost of the work said sum of$14,200,000 and upon completion of the project will contribute toward the annual operation and maintenance expense of said project a sum equal to 25% of such expense, such portion of such expense being presently estimated to be $112,000 per annum, which assurances Lower Neches Valley Authority is prepared to give for itself and on behalf of the City of Beaumont subject to the agreements by the City of Beaumont hereinafter contained and set out; and WHEREAS, Lower Neches Valley Authority, as prime sponsor, will be required to furnish certain assurances satisfactory to the Secretary of the Army, that it will, on behalf of itself and the City of Beaumont, provide certain lands, easements, etc., and accomplish certain alterations, relocations et cetera as is more specifically hereinafter set out; and WHEREAS, Lower Neches Valley Authority is also prepared to give such additional assurances subject to the assurances hereinafter given and the obligations and undertakings hereinafter assumed by the City of Beaumont; and WHEREAS, it is to the benefit of the City of Beaumont, Texas that such assurances be given by Lower Neches Valley Authority and by the City of Beaumont and that said project be constructed at the earliest possible time, now therefore KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that this contract and agreement made and entered into on this day of , A..D. 2000 by and between Lower Neches Valley Authority, an agency of the State of Texas with its office situated in Beaumont, Jefferson Country, Texas (hereinafter called Authority) acting herein by and through its President and Secretary who are hereunto duly authorized to act by resolution adopted by the Board of Directors of said Authority, and the City of Beaumont, Texas, a political subdivision of the State of Texas, acting herein by and through its Mayor and City Secretary who are hereunto duly authorized to act by ordinance adopted by the City Council of said City of Beaumont (hereinafter called the City) �N' ITNESSETH For and in consideration of the benefits flowing to the City herein above mentioned the City has contracted, agreed and bound itself and does hereby contract, agree and bind itself to pay to Lower Neches Valley Authority, as its share of the construction costs of said salt water barrier project, the sum of$1,800,000 in cash within one year after the execution date of this agreement.

RECOMMENDATION The Administration recommends approval of the nomination of West Telemarketing Corporation as an Enterprise Project. Designation as an Enterprise Project would not entail any City of Beaumont incentives,but would qualify the project for state sales tax refunds paid for the purchase of equipment based on the number of employees hired.

For West Telemarketing Corporation to become an Enterprise Project, the City of Beaumont and City of Nederland will also need to nominate the company. BUDGETARY IMPACT None. PREVIOUS ACTION None.

Bonczek, City Manager PREPARED BY: Kyle Hayes, Economic Development Director MEETING DATE: December 12. 2000 AGENDA MEMO DATE: December 6, 2000 REQUESTED ACTION: Consider designating approximately 12.1 acres located on South Cardinal Drive at 4th Street (southeast quadrant) as a reinvestment zone RECOMMENDATION Administration recommends designating approximately 12.1 acres located on South Cardinal Drive at 4th Street (southeast quadrant) as a reinvestment zone. BACKGROUND A reinvestment zone is an area designated by a municipality that offers local economic incentives (principally tax abatement) in order to promote economic development, provide employment opportunities, and encourage new investment. The area to be designated as a reinvestment zone is approximately 12.1 acres and is located on South Cardinal Drive at 4th Street (southeast quadrant). The legal description is M C Cartwright B41 PT 3-B, B42 PT3-B and B42 TR2. WLK Limited Partnership and Baker McMillen Company are proposing to construct a 50,000 square foot facility on the property with an estimated construction cost of$1,270,000. Phoenix Millwork, currently leasing a 15,000 square foot facility in Beaumont, is a division of Baker McMillen. Phoenix Millwork is a manufacturer of hardwood Victorian trim and other specialty wood products. Baker McMillen Company also plans to relocate equipment in the amount of$850,000 from another plant located outside of the State of Texas to Beaumont. Phoenix Millwork currently has 70 employees and plans to retain their existing workforce and hire five additional full-time employees. The City of Beaumont believes the improvements sought are feasible and would be of benefit to the zone after the expiration of any tax abatement agreement(maximum of five years after construction completion). Additionally, the City believes the designation of the zone will contribute to the retention or expansion of primary employment or attract major investment to the zone. BUDGETARY IMPACT The designation of the reinvestment zone will not have a budgetary impact. If the City provides tax abatement to Baker McMillen Company at a later date, the amount of abatement on$2,100,000 is less than $4,000 a year based on the current tax rate and a 30% abatement. PREVIOUS ACTION None. SUBSEQUENT ACTION The City Council would consider authorizing a tax abatement agreement with Baker McMillen Company. RECOMMENDED BY City Manager and Economic Development Director. RECOMMENDED MOTION Approve/Deny designating approximately 12.1 acres located on South Cardinal Drive at 4th Street (southeast quadrant) as a reinvestment zone.

AMENDING ORDINANCE 98-64 ..... Cit y of Beaumont Council Agenda Item TO: City Council FROM: Stephen J. Bonczek, City Manager PREPARED: Tom Scofield, Chief of Police MEETING DATE: December 12, 2000 AGENDA ME.N10 DATE: iecember _, 2uu) REQUESTED ACTION: Consider changes to Section 29-72 (B) (2) and(B)(3)(b) of the City Ordinances regarding tow truck and towing companies, amending Ordinance 98-64. RECOMMENDATION The Administration recommends approval of amendments to Section 29-72, ordinances of the City of Beaumont, regarding the requirement that towing companies operate vehicle storage facilities in the City and allowing multiple companies to operate from the same location. BACKGROUND On February 9, 1988, the City Council adopted Ordinance 88-15 re-enacting provisions of the City Code in Article IV Wreckers. Section 29-75 of that article stated, in part, as follows: "Locations Requirements. The wrecker company shall not be a part of another business that performs wrecker service as a part of that business. The wrecker company shall not be located at the same physical location as another wrecker company. " On October 6, 1998, the City Council amended the wrecker ordinance by adopting Ordinance 98- 64 creating a new Article IV titled Tort- Trucks, Towing Companies. and Tow Truck Operators. Section 29-72 (B) states standards regarding vehicle storage facilities and physical locations under this new ordinance. Those requirements include: (2) the towing company operates a vehicle storage facility in the City of Beaumont which is, at all times, licence pursuant to the Texas Vehicle Storage Act, as it may be amended, and which is in compliance with all provisions of the Texas Vehicle Storage Facility Act and any other provisions of the Texas Administrative Code relevant to operation of a vehicle storage facility". (3)(b) The physical facility to be operated by the towing company is not a part of any other business which performs towing services and is not located at the same physical location as any other towing company. Walls Wrecker Service and S & S Wrecker, Inc. had been operating from the same physical location at 1275 W. Cardinal Drive. The City has apparently taken no action to enforce the premises location requirements set forth in either Ordinance 88-15 or 98-64 in regard to both wrecker services being located at the same address, 1275 W. Cardinal Drive. Neither of the two ordinances contain "grandfather"provisions which would have lawfully allowed the two business to operate at the same location. Additionally, S & S Wrecker, Inc. has not complied with city ordinance in regard to having a licensed vehicle storage facility as required under Section 29-72 (B)(2). Both businesses have been advised that their lease at 1275 W. Cardinal Drive is ending at the end of December, 2000. Accordingly, any claim to any"grandfather" provisions allowing them to operatc at 0-1- The two wrecker companies have requested that the ordinance sections noted herein be modified to allow both companies to operate at a single new business location and also not require, by ordinance, that wrecker companies operate state licensed vehicle storage facilities. The tow truck-wrecker ordinances of approximately nineteen cities in the State of Texas were reviewed in regard to requirements as to operation of vehicle storage facilities and operating at the same business locations. The ordinances of several cities do not specifically address the issue of multiple wrecker businesses operating at the same location or the requirement that licensed wrecker operate vehicle storage facilities. In many cases, non consent/emergency tows involve vehicles being taken to city operated storage facilities,those facilities often being operated on a contract basis with the city. Additionally, many cities contract with specific towing companies to provide emergency/police initiated tows for the cities. At least eight of the city ordinances reviewed provide that the city operate a contract storage lot for police initiated tows. Of the cities reviewed, Corpus Christi and Port Arthur both have requirements similar to Beaumont's in regard to one company per business location. Examples of ordinances addressing vehicle storage vehicles include Austin's which requires that individuals having a tow truck license must own or have contracts with licensed storage lots, Galveston which requires that tows go to approved storage lots used by the towing company, Laredo which requires tows going to storage lots of the company doing the tow, and Port Arthur which requires the tow company to own or lease a licensed storage lot. The police chief is concerned that the amendments to the Ordinance may impact on the ability of police officers and/or citizens to investigate claims of misconduct and to assess responsibility for acts of misconduct under the ordinance. BUDGETARYIMPACT None. PREVIOUS ACTION Ordinance 88-15 adopted February 9, 1988 re-enacted provisions of the City Code in Article IV- Wreckers and Ordinance 98-64 created a new Article IV titled Tow Trucks, Towing Companies, and Tow Truck Operators. SUBSEQUENT ACTION None. RECOMMENDED BY City Manager. RECOMINIENDED MOTION Accept/Deny Amendments to Section 29-72(B)(2) and Section 29-72 (B)(3)(b) of the Ordinances of the City of Beaumont.

BACKGROUND Four (4) bids were received on Monday, October 2, 2000, for the pre-selection of ten(10) vertical centrifugal pumping units and five (5) variable frequency drives for Phase I of the Water System Improvements. The specifications allow for the award of each individual bid item to different bidders if deemed advantageous to the City. The pre-selection of the pumps and variable frequency drives allow the City to place the equipment on order prior to the solicitation and selection of a construction contractor. These pumps are built upon receipt of an order with delivery in approximately six(6) to eight (8) months. The prospective contractor will be responsible for receiving and installing the recommended equipment. Phase I Improvements at the Water Production Plant include the construction of a new 5 million gallon clearwell and pumping station.

Box 3827 Beaumont, TX 77704 Dear Steve: Please consider this a formal request to renew the contract between the City of Beaumont and Carolyn C. Chaney& Associates,Inc. for federal legislative and information services for one year beginning January 1, 2001. A copy of an updated contract is enclosed for your review. As always, it has been a pleasure representing the City of Beaumont in Washington, and I am proud to say that 2001 would mark my 20`h year of providing federal advocacy services to the City. I believe that 2000 was a very good year for the City, particularly the $500,000 HUD earmark for improvements to the Charlton-Pollard neighborhood,as well as $150,000 in Transportation Department funding for train crossing"quiet zones." We also hope to continue to work next year on federal assistance for Port of Beaumont improvements, upgrades to the City's sewer system,and the Lamar Criminal Justice Training and Education Center that will provide great benefits to the Police Department. Of course, none of our success in Washington could be possible without your hard work and guidance, as well as the assistance of the Mayor and City Council, and your fine staff. The key to the success of these projects is thorough preparation and background as well as timely promotion with the congressional delegation, and City officials have always been eager to assist with these duties. We are looking forward to continuing our relationship with the City of Beaumont,as well as working with you to develop a Federal Program for 2001. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments about the contract. Sincerely, Carolyn C.
