Lucas. RECOMMENDATION The Administration recommends approval of a zone change from RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling)to GC-MD-2(General Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling-2)District for the property located at 2748-2750 E. Lucas. BACKGROUND Thomas Cantue,the property owner,is requesting a zone change from RS(Residential Single Family Dwelling) District to GC-MD-2 (General Commercial-Multiple Family Dwelling) District for the rear 267.42' of the property located at 2748-2750 E. Lucas. The south 150' of the property is zoned GC-MD. In November, 2005, Mr. Cantue stated that he wanted to construct a meeting hall on his property. In addition, he was considering constructing some apartments at the rear of the property,if any land was left over. At the November meeting,Mr. Cantue was not sure how much of his property would be needed for the meeting hall. Mr. Cantue has now completed plans for the proposed meeting hall and has found that his entire 0.99 acres will be needed to construct the facility. He no longer has any desire for the apartments. The Planning Manager thinks that GC-MD-2 and a specific use permit would provide the Planning Commission and City Council the opportunity to place reasonable conditions upon the property. Future uses,other than what Mr. Cantue will be using the property for,might have a negative effect l upon surrounding properties. The Planning Commission and City Council may wish to counter any negative effects with GC-MD-2 zoning and a specific use permit. The Planning Manager has spoken with Mr. Cantue about the options. BUDGETARYIMPACT None. PREVIOUS ACTION At a Joint Public Hearing held January 23, 2006, the Planning Commission voted 5:0:1 to approve a zone change from RS (Residential Single Family Dwelling) to GC-MD-2 (General Commercial- Multiple Family Dwelling-2) District for the property located at 2748-2750 E.

Duplant, Chief Financial Officer Subject: Lease Purchase Financing COMMENTS The City has approved the purchase of the Pierce 75 foot ladder truck costing $621,623 for which lease purchase financing is available. The lowest quoted interest rate is a fixed rate of 3.61% for 5 Years in arrears which was received from Bank of America Leasing to finance the purchase of the equipment. If the City invested the purchase price at our current yield we would earn $73,071 over the five year period. The cost of interest to finance the purchase of the equipment is projected at $68,913. By financing the equipment, a savings of$4,158 results. Cost of Financing Savings from financing (Interest expense) equipment through Lease Purchase $68,913 $4,158 It is my recommendation that we finance with Bank of America Leasing, which would allow us the flexibility of keeping adequate cash balances while resulting in a savings of$4,158 on the purchase of the long term fixed asset. 7 January 31, 2006 Consider approving a bid for the purchase of two trash trucks City of Beaumont Council Agenda Item � - I g TO: City Council FROM: Kyle Hayes, City Manager PREPARED BY: Kirby Richard, Internal Services Director MEETING DATE: January 31, 2006 AGENDA MEMO DATE: January 24, 2006 REQUESTED ACTION: Council approval to award a bid for the purchase of two (2) twenty(20) cubic yard rear loading refuse collection trucks.

RECOMMENDED BY City Manager, Internal Services Director and Public Works Director. 8 January 31, 2006 Consider approving a resolution adopting the Jefferson County and the Regional Mitigation Action Plans City of Beaumont Council Agenda Item TO: City Council FROM: Kyle Hayes, City Manager PREPARED BY: Tom Warner, Public Works Director MEETING DATE: January 31, 2006 AGENDA MEMO DATE: January 25, 2006 REQUESTED ACTION:: Council approve a resolution adopting the Jefferson County and the Regional Mitigation Action Plans. RECOMMENDATION Administration recommends approval of a resolution adopting the Jefferson County and the Regional Hazard Mitigation Action Plans. BACKGROUND The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has implemented hazard mitigation planning regulations as a part of the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000. These provisions provide new federal requirements for mitigation planning and offer a significant opportunity to reduce disaster losses through mitigation planning at both the State and local government. The new regulations impact the City's eligibility to participate in federally funded hazard mitigation programs. In the spring of 2003,the South East Texas Regional Planning Commission(SETRPC)contracted with J. F. Thompson, Inc. of Houston,Texas,in association with Lamar University,to work with SETRPC and seven local jurisdictions, including the City of Beaumont, in developing this natural hazard Mitigation Action Plan (MAP). This plan has been developed to meet the state and federal requirements related to the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 and its purpose is to reduce the potential for loss of life and property that could result from a future disaster event. The Jefferson County MAP includes the unincorporated areas of Jefferson County and the following incorporated cities: Beaumont, Bevil Oaks, China, Groves, Nederland, Nome, Port Arthur and Port Neches. The Jefferson County MAP also covers Jefferson County Drainage District No. 7. The Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan includes, in addition to Jefferson County, Hardin and Orange Counties. References to Beaumont's roles and responsibilities are included in both plans. Upon approval of Jefferson County and Regional MAPS by the appropriate governing bodies, the MAPs will be forwarded to the State and FEMA for final approval. The MAPs must be approved by FEMA for the area to receive federal funding for future natural disaster events. BUDGETARY IMPACT Although the adoption of Beaumont's Mitigation Action Plan does not require the expenditure of funds, the proposed mitigation actions in the plan will require minimal annual expenditures for public awareness and disaster preparedness programs. Additionally, matching funds may be required for mitigation actions after future natural disaster events. PREVIOUS ACTION None. SUBSEQUENT ACTION None.
