REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider amending Ordinance 01-076 to allow Special
Transit Service monthly passes for social service agency clients.
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends amending Ordinance 01-076 to allow Special Transit Service monthly
passes for social service agency clients.
BACKGROUND
On October 2, 2001, City Council passed Ordinance 01-076 increasing the regular and special
transit fares. Although a monthly pass was established for the special transit service, clients of
social service agencies were not eligible for the monthly pass. The reason for the restriction was
due to our inability to track and bill the social service agency for only those trips related to the
agency. In reviewing the Transit System's procedures, it was determined that by obtaining
additional information when the request for service is received and modifying the records
maintained by the driver, trips related to the social service agencies could be tracked. The social
service agency could then be billed by the Transit System for transporting their clients to the
agency.
BUDGETARY IMPACT

AGENDA MEMO DATE: October 15, 2001
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider two (2) resolutions supporting passage of
Constitutional Amendment Propositions 15 and 2 on the November
6, 2001 ballot.
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends that Council pass two (2) resolutions supporting passage of
Constitutional Amendment Propositions 15 and 2 on the November 6, 2001 ballot.
BACKGROUND
Proposition 15 would allow the creation of the Texas Mobility Fund and implementation of the
Toll Equity Act. The framework Texas Mobility Fund was established by the State Legislature
as a means to fund more transportation projects in Texas. It would allow the State to issue bonds
so that the construction of major highway projects can be accelerated. This fund would
supplement the traditional "pay-as-you-go" method of financing highway projects. Action to put
funds into the Texas Mobility Fund must come from the State Legislature.
The financing tool known as toll equity allows roads to be built sooner and reduces congestion on
existing roadways. Toll equity would free up more state dollars for other projects because the
State's share of a toll project would be less than if the project was funded by fuel taxes alone.
Currently, TxDOT can lend highway funds for toll projects but the constitution requires that such
funds must be repaid. Foregoing payment to the State would make a toll project more viable
because it would accelerate debt payment and hasten the production of toll revenue.
Proposition 2 would allow the issuance of bonds for the building of roads in border colonias. The
rate of inflation for road building costs is higher than the current rate on bonds. Building the
roads with funds from bonds will cost less than waiting to build roads using the "pay-as-you-go"
method.

City Manager Bonczek,
On November 6, voters in Jefferson County will decide if they want a navigation district
that represents the interest of the entire county. The economic prosperity of all of
Southeast Texas will be affected by the outcome of this election. Currently, people living
within the Port Arthur School District are not represented on the Jefferson County
Navigation District governing board. The formation of a new district, to be called the
Jefferson County Waterways and Navigation District, would expand the governing board
of the agency from three to five members, and include representatives from south, middle
and north Jefferson County.
Your support for the creation of this new district is extremely important to the economic
well being of your community. The Citizens for a United Waterway ask for your
personal help in uniting our county and your sponsorship in passing a resolution from the
City of Beaumont calling for the creation of this new district.
BE IT RESOLVED THAT THE CITY OF BEAUMONT, IN SUPPORT OF
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT THROUGH UNITY OF OUR VITAL
WATERWAY SYSTEM, SUPPORTS THE CREATION OF THE JEFFERSON
COUNTY WATERWAYS AND NAVIGATION DISTRICT AS A UNIFYING
AGENCY FOR THE ECONOMIC WELL BEING OF ALL OF JEFFERSON
COUNTY, AND ENCOURAGES ALL CITIZENS TO VOTE FOR THE CREATION
OF THE DISTRICT ON NOVEMBER 6", 2001.
If you have any questions or comments concerning this critical Jefferson County election
then please contact the offices of the Jefferson County Navigation District at 729-4588.
Sincerely,
Paul Beard G°
