PASSED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Beaumont this the of 1999. -Mayor- 4803 Wellington Blvd. Alexandria, LA 71303 August 20, 1998 Mr. Ray A. Riley, City Manager City Of Beaumont 801 Main St., Suite 300 Beaumont, Texas Re: Proposed new Perlstein Park Dear Mr. Riley: In accordance with the suggestion you made at our meeting in Beaumont on August 6, 1 am submitting herewith a proposal on behalf of my cousins Charles H. Weinbaum, Jr. and Muriel Selber Phillips, my sister, Betty Simon Goldstein and her four children, and myself and my three children, all of whom were recipients or beneficiaries of the proceeds that resulted from the recent settlement of the litigation concerning the City's using a part of Perlstein Park for a street. As Charlie and I stated at our meeting, the above mentioned descendants of H.A. Perlstein would like to have another Perlstein Park in Beaumont and to be assured that there would always be a Perlstein Park there, and that it would serve as a fitting memorial to him. We had put together a total of $30,000.00 out of the proceeds realized from the litigation with the idea of buying a tract of land in a residential neighborhood for that amount and dedicating that tract as a park if the City would accept such a dedication, name the park Perlstein Park and agree to equip and maintain the property as a park. When we presented that idea to you, asking if you knew of any property that might be suitable for such a park and available for sale, you stated that the City would not want to accept the dedication of another park because of the possibility of future litigation over reversion if the the park property was used for another purpose. However, you advised that the City had recently paid $30,900.00 for property in the Ameila-Guff Terrace subdivision of Beaumont that is to be used for a park, and is acquiring a bit more land to square up the park, and that you believed that the City Council would vote to name that park Perlstein Park in consideration of our donating our $30,000.00 to Beaumont Park funds, and would also agree that if the City ever used the property for a purpose other than a park, that it would establish another comparable park named Perlstein Park. I have now been able to poll all of the above mentioned family members, and they have agreed that I may submit the following proposal to the City of Beaumont: In consideration of the City of Beaumont completing the establishment and construction of a park in the Amelia-Gulf Terrace Subdivision, as shown on the attached plat, to include the planting of trees and equipping the park with playground equipment, basketball goals, picnic tables, a pavillion and other items generally r �' AUG CITY J;- GI'1t;.�.;''- placed in Beaumont parks, and the naming of such park Perlstein Park, Charles H. Weinbaum, Jr., Muriel S. Phillips, Betty S, Goldstein and her four children and John F. Simon and his three children, upon completion of so naming and equipping of such park, will donate to the Beaumont Department of Parks and Recreation the sum of $30,000.00 in cash, conditioned upon the agreement of the City of Beaumont that this park (or any replacement park) and its equipment shall always be adequately maintained, and that if 1/4 or more of this park, or any park that replaces this park, is ever used for any purpose other than for park and playground purposes, or this park or any replacment park ever ceases to be named Perlstein Park, the City will-establish another park named Perlstein Park that is comparable in size and facilities elsewhere in the City where a park is needed, and if such comparable park is not completed within a year after the use of the prior park for other than park and playground purposes has begun, or within a year after such name change, or if any such park and its equipment is not adequately maintained, then any descendant or descendants of H.A. Perlstein may file a lawsuit against the City of Beaumont, Texas, for specific performance of any condition of this agreement that has not been complied with, in any court of proper jurisdiction and venue. I would appreciate it if you would present the foregoing prosposal to the City Council for it's consideration and let me know if it is accepted. If you believe that any part of the proposal might not be acceptable to the council as written, please give me a call at (318) 442-0075 to discuss your concerns. I will be away from Alexandria from August 27 to September 22, 1998, so if I do not hear from you before August 27, 1 will get back in touch with you right after I return. I enjoyed my meeting with you, a nd I appreciate your courtesy and your kind assistance to Charlie and me in proposing ways for us to implement our wishes for having a Perlstein Park in the City of Beaumont in perpetuity. Our grandfather devoted a great part of his life to the development and welfare of the City, and we hope that the City Council agrees with you that always having a park named for him in the city is a meritorious idea.

The work involves demolishing the present Pietzsch Elementary School, renovating certain existing structures on the MacArthur campus and building a new school complex.

EINTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM '10 IL City of Beaumont,Texas Planning Division Date: January 11, 1999 To: Ray A. Riley, City Manager From: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Director,- Subject: AGENDA ITINERARY FOR JANUARY 19, 1999 - REQUEST BY BEAUMONT INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT TO ABANDON E. WOODROW AVENUE BETWEEN HIGHLAND AVENUE AND GRANDBERRY AVENUE. CONUgENTS City Council is asked to consider a request by Beaumont Independent School District to abandon E. Woodrow Avenue between Highland Avenue and Grandberry Avenue. Beaumont Independent School District is requesting abandonment of a 594' length of E. Woodrow Avenue. The tracts flanking this section of E. Woodrow are owned by BISD. This abandonment is part of the proposed redevelopment of the Pietzsch/MacArthur school campuses. This work involves demolishing the present Pietzsch Elementary School, renovating certain existing structures on the MacArthur campus and building a new school complex. The new school would bisect that portion of E. Woodrow which is up for abandonment. At a Regular Meeting held July 20, 1998, the Planning Commission voted 6:0 to approve the abandonment of Woodrow Avenue between. Highland Avenue and Grandberry Avenue, subject to conditions involving the relocation of various utilities and City services, or the retaining of utility and drainage easements or the dedication of same to satisfy City and utility company requirements. Arrangements have been made to relocate or abandon all utilities and City services within the right-of-way requested for abandonment. All costs have been or will be borne by Beaumont Independent School District. No easement within the right-of-way need be retained.

Please incorporate this form with our prior application for Woodrow Street closing and abandonment, together with my letter of June 18 , 1998, stating the reasons for the request, and enclosing the site plan for school construction and related documents. On behalf of Beaumont I.S.D. , I would like to thank you for agreeing to waive the $200 application fee as a courtesy to another local public entity, and for explaining that a street abandonment application does not involve imposition of the one-year completion date referred to in the previously submitted form. If further information or documentation is needed in connection with this abandonment request, we will be pleased to provide it.

The school district is the sole owner of all property abutting that portion of Woodrow Street for which closure and abandonment is requested. A completed City of Beaumont application form is attached and incorporated, together with a site plan and related documents. The purpose of the request is to permit the school district to undertake a bond issue building project which will involve demolishing the present Pietzsch Elementary School, renovating certain existing structures on the MacArthur campus, and building a new school complex. According to the composite site plan submitted herewith, the new school would essentially bisect that portion of Woodrow Street for which the school district requests closure and abandonment. If the street closing/abandonment request is granted, it will greatly facilitate the school district's plans for school construction on these campuses, resulting in a more economical and student-friendly campus complex. Closing the indicated portion of Woodrow Street to eliminate the bifurcated campus will also enhance the safety and well-being of the small children who will attend and make use of this new and renovated school facility on both sides of the existing street. Mr. Steve Richardson June 18 , 1998 Page 2 I also respectfully request that the City waive the $200 processing fee which ordinarily would accompany such an application, in deference to the continuing spirit of cooperation which exists between Beaumont I.S.D. and the City. The application form requires that if the street closing and abandonment request is granted, all necessary work permits will be obtained and all construction completed within one year from the date permission is granted by the Board, or the City's approval will be considered void. Because of the extensive new and renovating construction work to be done at this campus, it is unlikely that it will be completed within one year. Accordingly, I respectfully request that the City grant the school district an extension of time sufficient to permit the completion of the work without voiding the street closing and abandonment permission requested by this application. If additional documentation or other information is needed to process this application, please contact me at the number and address shown above. Also, I would appreciate being notified of the date and time when the board plans to consider this application. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Riley, City Manager From: Stephen C. Richardson, Planning Director.44 Subject: AGENDA ITINERARY FOR JANUARY 19, 1999 - REQUEST TO ABANDON THE UNDEVELOPED MATTHEWS DRIVE BETWEEN PHELAN BOULEVARD AND CALDER AVENUE. COMMENTS City Council is asked to consider a request to abandon the undeveloped Matthews Drive between Phelan Boulevard and Calder Avenue. The 552 foot segment of Matthews requested for abandonment has never been constructed as a street. It has a 40' wide right-of-way and extends in a north to south alignment. There are no City utilities inside the right-of-way. This is a wooded area of west Beaumont lying between Shakespeare on the west and Pinchback on the east. Buckner Retirement Services has purchased a 17.65 acre tract of land abutting the east line of Matthews. A residential care facility is planned for the site. Mary Fiorenza owns the tract abutting the west side of the street right-of-way. She has also signed the petition for abandoning the street. At a Regular Meeting held July 20, 1998, the Planning Commission voted 6:0 to approve the abandonment of Matthews Drive between Phelan Boulevard and Calder Avenue. It has since been determined that Entergy and Entex have electrical and gas facilities within the 40' wide street right-of-way. In addition, the Water Utilities Department will need an easement for a proposed water line to serve the Buckner Retirement community. Therefore, if the street right-of-way is abandoned, the City should retain a utility easement in lieu of the street for use for facilities and services by the City and franchised utility companies.

Riley, City Manager From: Kirby Richard, Central Services Director Subject: Purchase of Defibrillator Monitors COMMENTS On Monday, November 23, 1998, sealed bids were received for the purchase of six (6) defibrillator/monitors for the Beaumont Fire Department and Emergency Medical Services. Four (4) defibrillator monitors are replacement units for four (4) front line ambulances. Two (2) defibrillator monitors will be placed on two (2) Beaumont Fire Department fire engines. The personnel assigned to these units are trained paramedics and Emergency Medical Technicans (EMT) who provide advanced life support to patients suffering from cardiac arrest and/or cardiac arrhythmias. Presently, fourteen (14) fire engines and rescue units are equipped with automatic external defibrillators. The defibrillator is used to direct a brief high-energy pulse of electricity to the heart by using electrodes or paddles applied directly to the chest. Paramedics gather and enter information, such as the patient's name, age, gender, and vital signs, into the defibrillator's computer. Information such as the date, power on time, shock tally, total time pacing energy delivered, and a summary of the patient's condition is automatically generated by the defibrillator monitor. A printout is given to the attending physician for evaluation. The defibrillator monitors requested by EMS are equipped with pulse oximetry, pacing, and synchronized cardioversion. Pulse oximetry measures oxygen content in the blood, pacing sends a low voltage shock to the chest to maintain a heart beat, and synchronized cardioversion sends a low voltage shock to the chest to change the heart beat. Only certified paramedics are qualified to pace and cardiovert. The defibrillator monitors requested by the Fire Department are equipped with pacing, synchronized cardioversion, and automatic external defibrillation. Automatic external defibrillators analyze the ECG, determine if a shock is required, and notify the firefighter to activate the shock mode. Most firefighters are qualified to use the automatic external defibrillator. Twenty (20) bidders were notified with the following three (3) responding: F Laerdal Medical Corp.
