Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: "Main .Street, Beaumont"
The Beaumont Heritage Society has requested that the City co-sponsor their
annual seminar, this year entitled, "Main Street, Beaumont". The City has
extended support for this activity the last two years, most recently provid-
ing printing and mailing services.
This year, the Heritage Society has requested we provide the Civic Center
Facility for one day (a value of $125) and the equivalent of $596 in printing
and mailing services. The City Planning Department has indicated a willing-
ness to pick up the printing and mailing expense from their budget. The
"Main Street" program is one in which staff has a strong interest and having
a program available locally actually represents a cost savings when compared
with sending an individual or individuals to a national conference.
The request and back-up material from the Heritage Society is attached for
your review. Please be advised that the Mayor and Bruce McClendon will not
receive honoraria as indicated on the sheet titled "Request to City of
Beaumont".
Your approval is recommended.

Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council:
The Beaumont Heritage Society's annual seminar -- this one entitled
"Main Street, Beaumont" -- will be held at the Beaumont Civic Center
on Thursday, November 17, of this year. We invite the City to co-sponsor
this event as you have done twice in the past, providing the Civic
Center facility for the day ($125) and the equivalent of $596 in printing
and mailing services.
The National Main Street program, sponsored by the National Trust
for Historic Preservation and administered in Texas by the Texas
Historical Commission, has achieved a fine reputation. By hiring a
project manager to coordinate and promote downtown efforts, this program
has begun an enthusiastic revitalization of fifteen of Texas ' smaller
communities. Because of the soundness of its principles and its degree
of success, several larger Texas cities have begun similar programs on
their own, among them the City of Fort Worth.
It is our desire to present the principles of the Main Street
program to the leaders of our community so that they may judge their merit
for themselves. We are excited about the program's potential and have
been assured assistance from the Texas Historical Commission in creating
"Main Street, Beaumont."
We have planned a seminar agenda to encompass the scope of the Main
Street project. Our keynote speaker is Tom Moriarity of the National
Trust in Washington, D.C. Other expertise will be drawn from the Texas
Historical Commission staff as well as professionals from around the
state. Enclosed for your information is our revised seminar budget and
the tentative agenda.

We feel this seminar deals with a timely subject and urge your
public support as well as your financial assistance. We have found
this to be a viable program which will create enthusiasm for the private
development of Beaumont's central business district.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
P

Subject: Bids on Sale of Packer Trucks
In view of the restructuring of City refuse collection service and elimination
of closed container collections, bids were taken on the sale of 15 packer
trucks which will no longer be needed. Included were six rear loaders and nine
front loaders. Only one firm bid on the purchase of the rear loaders, offer-
ing only $5,600 for all six. Five firms bid on the purchase of the nine front
loaders, but these bids also were determined to be less than the value of the
equipment. The best bids - totaling $99,540 for the nine units - were con-
sidered unacceptable and less than the amount that could be expected to be
realized from sale of the equipment at auction. The $5,600 bid on the rear
loading packer trucks was submitted by Lombardo Tree Service.
Bids on the front loading trucks were as follows:
Davis Tree Experts; Vidor -.-$16;250
Global Truck & Equipment, Inc. ; Houston 99,540
Lombardo Tree Service; Beaumont 60,900
Tidelands International , Inc.; Beaumont 10,200
Browning-Ferris, Inc. ; Houston 41,500
It is recommended that all bids be rejected in order that the equipment may be
offered for sale at auction.

Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: Rezoning Request from OP to RS and a Specific Use Permit for
3395 Cleveland
This request for rezoning and a specific use permit .to establish a church
and school on the, property located at 3395 Cleveland was heard at the
September 19th joint public hearing of the Planning Commission and City
Council .
This request by the Believers Outreach Christian Center is to establish a
church and school on property that was previously used by the North End
United Methodist Church.
On April 28, 1981, the North End Methodist Church property located at
3395 Cleveland was rezoned from RS to OP (Office Park). The Planning staff
had recommended denial of the rezoning contending that the best use and the
most compatible use of the property was as a church or church-related use.
On August 21, 1983, the Planning staff was informed that the property had
been purchased and was being used as a church and Christian school . Staff
notified Howard Cameron, Pastor of the Believers' Outreach Christian Center,
that the property was not zoned to permit either a church or a school use of
the property. On August 23, the Pastor submitted an application for rezoning
and a specific. use permit to allow the property to be used as a church and
Christian school . Staff was opposed to the'.zone change granted in 1981 and
recommended .that it be returned to its original RS district classification
and that a specific use permit be. approved. The Planning Commission voted
5 to 0 to recommend both requests.
It is recommended that both the rezoning and the specific use permit be
approved.

Subject: Request for Specific Use Permit for a 'Night Club at 3675 South
Eleventh
A joint public hearing on this request for a specific use permit for a disco
night club was held on September 19th. ` The site was previously used as a
lounge but was closed approximately 4 years ago. -
The Planning staff recommended denial of the request because it did not
satisfy the conditions which must be met before a specific use permit can be
approved. The Planning Commission voted 5 to 0 to recommend denial of the
request. Because 21% of the property owners within 200 feet protested the
application, it will require a favorable vote from 4 of the 5 members of
the Council for it to be approved.
It is recommended that the permit be denied.

Subject: Zoning Text Amendment (Section 30-25.C:1)
This proposed amendment to the Area and Height 'Exception section of the
Zoning Ordinance was heard by the Planning Commission and City Council at
a joint public' hearing on September 12, 1983.
This request was generated by local residential builders who discovered that
they could not take rear and side-yard setbacks for unattached accessory
buildings located in rear yards where there are utility easements. The
Joint City/Development Committee (JCDC) previously reviewed the exception
for unattached accessory buildings and recommended that the exception be
allowed not just in rear yards, but in any area behind the principal structure.
The Zoning Ordinance defines rear yards in residential districts as the rear
2E�-feet. If there are 10 or.-15-foot utility easements in a rear yard, then
it is not possible to locate an unattached accessory building so that it can
take advantage of the reduced 2-1/2-foot interior side yard setback.
The Planning Commission and City Council previously reviewed this request by
the JCDC and it was rejected because it would allow garages to-be located
too close to houses on adjoining lots. This new request, developed by the
JCDC, would allow accessory structures to be located to within 2-1/2 feet of
an interior side yard property line, provided it is located as far as pos-
sible to the rear of the lot.
ThP rianning staff saw the latest JCDC proposal • as a good compromise and
recormi�-_;Ided its approval . The Planning Commission recommended approval of
the proposed amendment by a vote of 6 to 0.
It is recommended that this amendment to the text of the Zoning Ordinance be
approved.

Subject: Depository Banks for Investment Purposes
As mentioned in your Council Letter on August 23rd when the depository con-
tract with First City Bank was approved, an additional list of banks and
financial institutions would be forthcoming to be named as additional de-
positories for investment purposes. Ali of the banks and savings and loan
institutions headquartered here in Beaumont have expressed their desire to
be named as one of these additional depositories with the except of Lamar
State Bank. This action is necessary for these firms to bid on collatera-
lized City deposits for investments in excess of current needs. We currently
estimate that starting in early October, we,will be in contact with this list
of firms on a daily basis to find out which one will offer the best rate of
interest on a collateralized certificate of deposit for the City.
In discussing this arrangement with these firms, all of them were told to
anticipate bidding on City funds in increments of approximately $500,000 with
a maturity in the 30-60-day range. At the same time, it was further discussed
that these funds had to be collateralized by securities from their portfolio
to protect the public funds that they would be receiving. All of the in-
st"itutions on this list indicated their desire to have these funds and their
willingness to quote competitive rates to get them. The names of the banks
and financial institutions are:
Parkdale State Bank Home Savings of America
Texas Commerce Bank-Beaumont Jefferson Savings & Loan
Interfirst Bank-Beaumont San Jacinto Savings
Allied Bank Spindletop Savings
Texas Bank of Beaumont First Federal Savings
1st Texas Savings & Loan Association
I currently anticipate that the competition generated among these firms for
the City money will significantly improve the interest earnings that we will
be reporting to you on a monthly basis. -
It is recommended that Council designate- these financial institutions as de-
positories.

Subject: Contract +1 - Sanitary Sewer System Improvements
Change Order No._5-,-. 4----
On December 8, 1981, Council -approved a contract with C.F.W. Construction for
upgrading the City's existing Anaerobic Sludge-Trickling Filter Type Waste- -
w3ter Treatment Plant. Upon completion, the improvements provided by this
contract will increase the plant's capacity from 60 MGD to 120 MGD to deal
with water that enters the system as a result of infiltration during a heavy
rainfall .
Change Order No. 5 would increase the contract amount $15,809.47-for a new -
total of .$5,869,691.47. All items listed below are already in place and are
necessary to maintain system control and safety. The need -for these changes
was re,-ognized during the construction process and all costs have been re-
viewed and found to be fair and reasonable.
1. Sludge density meter, recorder, and installation acces-
sories. This instrumentation• will be used to control
sludge pumping from the sludge thickeners 'to the sludge
digesters. The existing sludge thickeners are capable
of producing denser sludge than is desirable for di-
gester operation. The recorder will provide a con-
tinuous indication of density variations. $ 7,090.30
2. Vacuum.pump for lavatory. The original contract
documents provided for a combination- vacuum pump/air
compressor. Laboratory personnel need a separate unit
for each function so as to carry out various procedures
concurrently. The unit already provided will supply com-
pressed air, and the new unit will provide vacuum. 399.89
Chart recorder for main plant parshall flume flow meter.
The existing chart recorder is no longer operable and
not repairable. 920.00
4. Flow indicator for plant water system flow meter. The
flow meter controls- the injection of chlorine into plant
water system to disinfect water for wash down, etc. An
indicator is needed to maintain calibration of chlorine
feed and to monitor pump performance. It was not
realized the indicator would be needed when the original
plans were prepared. 115.00

Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: The Extension of Callaghan Street from Florida Street to Cardinal
Drive
On March 30, 1982, the City Council agreed to participate with Lamar University
and Jefferson County (Precinct No. 4) in the extension of Callaghan Street.
The extension would connect Florida Avenue and Cardinal Drive. The City agreed
to allocate $30,000 from the Street Rehabilitation Fund to pay for the cost of
materials with Lamar University to supply the right-of-way and Jefferson County
(Precinct No. 4) to furnish the labor and equipment.
Plans for the project have been prepared by the engineering staff of the Urban
Transportation Department. Based on providing the required limestone base and
hot mixed asphaltic concrete materials for a twenty-two foot. (22' ) wide street,
the cost estimate is $40,000. It is requested that you authorize an additional
$10,000 for this project. Due to underruns, sufficient funds ($45,000) remains
available from the 1982 Street Rehabilitation Fund to cover this allocation.
Three parcels of right-of-way and three license agreements with utility companies
are also necessary. Lamar University has furnished right-of-way deeds from
Transit Mix Concrete Co. , Inc. , South Park Independent School District and Lamar
University to the City. They have also furnished license agreements from the
Golden Triangle Gas Distribution Company, Winnie Pipeline Company and Gulf States
Utilities Company that provide for joint occupation of the right-of-way by the
utilities and the .roadway. The condition outlined in the licenses have been re-
viewed by the City and County legal staffs and have been found to be acceptable.
It is recommended that Council authorize the appropriation of funds and the ac-
ceptance of three right-of-way deeds and three license agreements.

Subject: Amendments to.1983 Budget
All departments of the City have been asked once again to provide us with 1983
estimated expenditures through 9 '30-83. These estimates have been received
and certain adjustments to 1983 budgets have been made.
Taken as a whole, the changes made differ very little from the Fiscal 1983
estimates previously provided to Council as a part of the original submission
of the 1984 budget.
An analysis of the substantive differences in 1983 estimates will be provided
under separate memo when the final copies of the 1984 budget are delivered on
MiDnday along with the ordinance amending the 1983 budget.

f" :.._. Council Memo No. 60
SdPtamb;(t 16, 1983
Honorable Mayor and
Members of City Council
Subject: Summary of Changes and
Proposals in FY -84 Budget
There has been over the past month a great deal of discussion relative to
proposed service level reductions fee and service charge adjustments as
well as some fiscal adjustments required within specific programs. I
believe it is timely to summarize these changes within categories in the
event you decide that certain of these actions require modification or
additional consideration. All of these changes that require legislative
action will be presented in a package along with the ordinance adopting
the 1984 budget.
Service Level Reductions
I. City Manager - A redefinition of duties within the office along
with a reorganization has allowed the elimination of two positions
for a reduction of $61,000.
II. Building Maintenance - This component provides electrical repair,
carpenter work, communication support and custodial service. A
total of six positions have been eliminated for a reduction o
$112,000.
III. City Clerk - Assignment of Civil Service tess and reassignment
of Pension fund activities has allowed t�elimination of two
Positions for a reduction of $70,000.
IV. Finance - Consolidation of activities coupled with reduction of
proposed overtime has allowed the elimination of two positions for
a reduction of $70,000.
V. Police - Adjustments in service levels in five functional areas:
minor accidents, theft, abandoned vehicles, auto burglary and
auto theft has enabled the department to identify a reduction of
$230,000.
VI. Fire - The department has concluded that an adequate service level
can be maintained with seven fewer firefighter positions and one
clerical position. This amounts to $133,000.
VII. Urban Transportation — Reductions in signal maintenance and
reaassignment of man hours in certain areas is possible allowing a
reduction of $24,100.
VIII. Parks and Recreation — Contracting out of certain maintenance
activities to public remedial health agencies allows a reduction
of $47,400.
I%. Library — Reduction in hours at the Spindletop branch from 48
hour/week to 32 hour/week coupled with two staff recution at the
main library and the Miller branch allows a reduction or $30,000.
R. Health — An adjustment in personnel costs has allowed a reduction
of $9,200.
v4' 7
These service level reductions total some $739,700 on an annualized
basis. However, I must caution you that the amount of reduction will be
somewhat lower than this because of our commitment to phase in our
layoffs over a three to four month period.
Revenue and Fee Adjustments:
I. Legal Department — The city attorney has proposed that his office
bill for services provided when working on certain specific
capital projects, Bond sales and all other projects if and when
non—general fund sources are used for the project. Rates for the
service have been established and are as follows:
City Attorney $50.00
First Assistant City Attorney 45.00
Senior Assistant City Attorney 35.00
Assistant City Attorney 30.00
It is estimated that this cost recovery method will generate come
$30,000.
II. Planning — This department is developing some needed adjustments
in our fees charged for Zoning changes to bring the more in line
with our costs for providing the service. These adjustments will
increase our revenues by $20,000.
III. Finance — Recent changes in state law with respect to fee
increases covering the licensing of bars, and pubs will increase
our revenue by an estimated $20,000.
IV. Urban Transportation "= A number of adjustments in charges for
services in the following areas are proposed:
1. Parking meter sacking (use of city personnel to reserve
certain metered areas for specific uses). Initiating a
charge for this service will bring in some $5,800.
2. Permits - Adjustment in permit fees for street use and
driveway cuts will increase our revenues by some $4,000.
3. Miscellaneous - Changes in fees for printed materials and
tapping of lines will yield an estimated $500.
V. Code Enforcement — The initiation of a charge to be levied against
veterinarians for the collection of dead animals from their
premises will yield an estimated $30,000.
VI. Library — Adjustment in the fees charged for copies, for
reservation of books, a meeting room charge of $10.00 for four
hours or less and $20.00 for four hours or more and charges in
rental rates on video tapes will increase our revenues by some
$3,000.
VII. Health Department — An extensive adjustment in fees charged for
inspections by the Environmental Health section will produce an
estimated $52,000.
VIII. Transit Fund — Fee adjustments in the following areas are
proposed:
Adult Fares .40 to .50
Youth Fares .15 to .20
Adult Pass $15.00 per month to $18.00 per month
Charter Rate $60.00 minimum for three hours to $80.00
minimum for three hours.
$20.00 per hour for each additional hour after
three hours to $28.00 per hour for each
additional hour after three hours.
Contract Rate $60.00 minimum for three hours to $70.00
minimum for three hours.
$20.00 per hour for each additional hour after
" three hours to $24.00 per hour for each
additional hour after three hours.
The increase -in revenues is. estimated to be:
Fares and Passes $40,000
Charters $10,000
XI. Water and Sewer Fee Increase — An adjustment from $4.00 to $5.00
in the monthly minimum charged for water and sewer services is
proposed which represents and across the board percentage increase
of 20%. The total increase projected as a result of these
adjustments amounts to:
Minimum $ 625,000
Base Rate $1,550,000
$2,175,000
In addition, we are proposing adjustments in the water and sewer
connection fees which have not been adjusted since 1976. These
increases will provide about $15,000 additional revenue.
X. Sanitation Fees — An adjustment in the monthly charge from $7.00
to $9.50 has been proposed.
Should Council provide no increase for senior citizens, the rate
for others would increase to $10.20 per month. An alternative
would be to attempt to target the savings to low income elderly
under a voluntary sign up program. Should income criteria be set
at the poverty level, the rate for all others would be $10.00 per
month. Council should be aware that either alternative could
result in criticism. In the case of providing relief to all
senior citizens, opponents will point out that the rich receive
the benefit while those laid off or other poor do not. In the
case of targeting for the elderly poor, the cost of administration
of the program could be high in comparison to the benefit unless a
voluntary, honor system was utilized. Under such systems, some
needy individuals will be too proud to participate, while others
who should not qualify sign up. Examples of such situations will
most likely be brought up by reporters looking for a story.
Opponents will add that if the subsidy is based on income, then
how can the other poor be neglected.
Program Changes
On September 27, 1983, prior to adopting the budget, there will be
a public hearing on certain items which have been added to or
increased in the budget as originally submitted. These items
Include the following:
I. The 911 emergency assistance number $25,000 will be added to
the Police Department budget for this service.
2. Emergency Medical Services - This ambulance service will be
brought under the operational control of the City. The budget
will be increased to reflect the expenditure of the revenues
generated by the EMS in the amount of $142,000.
3. The Library - $22,000 has been added to this departmental
budget to allow for the correction of a drainage problem in
in the service bay area.
4. Personnel Department Adjustment - The move of Civil Service
testing from the City Clerk to Personnel will require an
adjustment of $8,000 into the appropriate line item.
5. Landfill Sunday Opening - We have analyzed the costs
associated with a Sunday afternoon opening and estimate
our costs for this at $40,000. Because of the heavy
commercial hauler usage on Saturday, we cannot recommend
that we operate for a half day on Saturday and a half day
on Sunday. This additional expenditure would have a small
impact on our proposed rates for residential pickup and
landfill disposal.

Honorable Mayor..and
Members- of City Councia - -
Subject: Fee Structure'-..';:.-`The Health Department is .responsible for protecting the health of the public "
and preventing disease- and other health concerns from arising. One of the
means of accomplishing this is through licensing and inspecting efforts to
ensure that various business concerns fully comply with state and local laws
and regulations. Proper food preparation, sanitation and control are es-
sential to prevent the occurrence of food-borne. disease outbreaks. Proper
regulation and inspection of emergency medical vehicles and personnel are
necessary to meet requirements of state law and provide the best possible
emergency service to the citizens of Beaumont.
It has been some twenty-five years, and in some cases more, since the Health
Department raised the .fees it charges for licensing and inspecting the City's
restaurants and other food-serving establishments. It has been five years
since present.ambulance licensing fees and attendant fees were established.
In an effort to raise additional revenue for the City and to• attempt to re-
cover the basic costs to the City of providing licensing and inspection ser-
vices to the public in these two areas, the Health Department has-proposed
raising the fees to the following:

In addition, we are proposing that the current fee exemption covering in-
spections of food service areas in public and parochial schools- be cancelled
and that a fee of $50 be set for this activity.
SPECIAL FOOD EVENTS
All food sold or served to the public must meet state and local
requirements for food preparation, sanitation, and control to
ensure the protection of the public from disease outbreaks. The
City's food ordinance covers not only "establishments" such as
restaurants, but also "temporary": food serving events. Often,
-these events pose the more serious threat to possible contamina-
tion of food and growth of bacteria due to improper handling that
would cause a food-borne disease outbreak to occur. These events
include chili cookoffs, food booths at fairs, and other such
special events.
In order to differentiate between routine temporary permit re-
quests (which require a $10 permit fee per booth) and larger
scale events such as the Southeast Texas Food and Heritage Festi-
val which may contain tens- and hundreds of individual food pre--
paration booths, the Health Department is proposing to amend the
current food Code to provide for licensing of "Special Event Food
Service Establishments" at a rate of $200 per day of the event to
the sponsoring organization. This license category will enable
such events to comply with City food sanitation requirements with-
out imposing the individual booth license fee upon them, and yet
provide the necessary public protection through the Health Depart-
;-,z-nt. This fee will enable the City to basically recover its
costs in providing licensing and inspection activities in the
event. This fee should be more cost effective for the sponsoring
organization.
These changes are based on the cost to the taxpayer for the Health Department
to provide these services. It is an attempt to recover at least the cost of
personnel time through the licensing process. These figures are also repre-
sentative of the average such fees being charged by other health jurisdic-
tions across the state.
I recommend that these adjustments in the fee structures for the various
types of inspections and permitting be approved.

Subject: Sanitation Fee Adjustments
Over the past several years, the fund 'balance in this enterprise activit y" ha
declined to the point where we estimate that our deficit position at the s -
..- of FY 83 will be slightly in excess of one million dollars. In order to be-
gin to address this problem, we have already taken the steps necessary to
dispose of the commercial sanitation operation and have. proposed a significant
fee increase in the 1984 budget from $7.00 per month to $9.60 per month.
There is also included within this increase a provision whereby an adjusted
rate increase to $8.00 per month is available to Senior Citizens 65 years or
Older who fall below the poverty guideline of having a household income less
than $11,500 per year. The ordinance includes language establishing sign-u
procedures for this assistance program, p
We estimate that the fee adjustments will generate an additional $892,000
per year.
I recommend that these adjustments be approved.

The rate analysis -study of the water and sewer system in-1980 by
Marwick and Mitchell pointed out it would be necessary- to increase our Pfee
� . �r ~
structure in 1983-1984 in order to assure adequate -monies for debt retirement ~
and operations. In addition, it has been necessary to greatly increase the
amount of money transferred from the water fund to the General Fund of the
City. This amount has moved from one million dollars in 1982-1983%to Ai,pro-
posed $2,200,000 in the 1984 budget. Taking all of the above in considera-
tion has meant that we now propose a 20% increase in the basic water and
sE'.wer rate, a $1 per month increase in the minimum service charge, as well
as adjustments in fees charged for services performed by the Department.
A summary of these charges are listed:
Water and sewer services rates 20% increase
New service charges
Turn on fee . $5.00
Name change on accounts 5.00
Changes in service charges:
Field collection $ 3.00 to $- 5.00
�- Cut.and seal 6.00 to 10.00
Seal broken 12.00 to 20.00
Meter removed 20.00 to 30.00
Service killed 50.00 to 75.00
Second trip on service
turn on 3.00 to 5.00
These fee adjustments will generate some $2,200,000 in 1984,
I recommend that these adjustments be approved.

Subject: Establishing a charge for reservation of metered parking spaces
The current charge for parking in zones controlled by parking meters is a
basic rate of ten cents per hour. Sections 26-60 through 26-67 define ap-
plicable rates, zones, and times for parking meter operation.
Requests are occasionally received for reservation of meter controlled
spaces due to special conditions. Typically the conditions relate to near- '
by construction in which contractors desire to park as closely as possible
to the site in order to have easy access to tools, materials, or equipment.
The area may also be desired by contractors for working room. Other con-
ditions may also arise concerning unusually large delivery vehicles, or
other circumstances.
Currently, such requests are processed by the Urban Transportation Depart-
ment, which sacks the meters with the legend "Construction Vehicle Parking
Only" when construction vehicles are to be allowed and with the legend "No
Parking" when prohibition of parking is desired.
The ordinance herewith proposed will clarify the authority of the Director
of Urban Transportation, or his designee, to reserve metered spaces. In
addition, an $8 sacking fee per trip to a single. block location and a $4 per
muter per day use fee is recommended. The sacking fee would be for admin-
istration and labor charge. The use fee would assess the user at a rate
comparable to the service received relative to off-street parking lots and
compensate the City for meter revenue currently lost. In addition, public
impacts would be minimized through encouragement of the user to minimize
occupancy of metered spaces. It is anticipated that the fees would result
in an annual revenue of $5,500 to $6,000.
Approval of this ordinance is recommended.

Honorable Mayor and M
Members of City Council
Subject: Establishing a fee structure for street use permits
On May 19, 1981, the City Council passed an ordinance adopting a "Manual on
Uniform Barricading Standards" and established permit requirements relative
to blockages of public rights-of-way. The ordinance also .included provisions
related to emergency conditions, bonding and insurance, applicant responsi-
bilities, and other concerns. However, no charges for permits were included.
Although barricading standards are applicable in all blockage cases, street
use permits are not required of utility companies for pole installations
which do not disturb paved areas or for short-term manhole access if at least
one travel lane is left open. Permits are also not required in emergency
situations, of contractors performing work for the City, or of the State De-
partment of Highways and Public Transportation on streets under its control .
,Also, persons who obtain a driveway or sidewalk construction permit are not
required to obtain a separate barricading permit.
The proposed amendment to the ordinance herewith presented would provide for
a charge of $10 per permit and $5 per day, or portion of a day, in which the
,right-of-way is occupied. Such a charge would be for administrative costs
and inspections. The City does not provide or rent barricades or signs.
The charge would be assessed only in cases when a permit would be required,
with franchised utilities and railroads exempted at all times. The revenue
anticipated from the charge is approximately $500 per year.
Approval of this amendatory ordinance is recommended.

Honorable Mayor-and
Members of City Council
Subject: Amending the fees established for Driveway Permits
In 1958, an ordinance established the fee for a driveway permit at $7.50 for
driveways constructed exclusive of a building permit. In addition to admin-
istrative costs, the City establishes grades and conducts inspections of the
driveways. The same fee is charged for both residential and commercial drive-
ways.
Current City costs for services related to driveway permits are in excess of
the fee established in 1958. Also, it is recognized that residential drive-
ways are generally smaller than commercial driveways, and that driveways
outside the city limits generally require additional travel .
I•t is recommended that Sec. 23-44 of the City Code be amended to include a
$10 permit fee for residential driveways, a $25 fee for commercial driveways,
and a $35 fee for any driveway not within the city limits.

Subject: Mobile Radios for Sanitation-Trucks T'
BAs were taken on-September 12 for furnishing 22 mobile radios to be pur-
chased for santi-ation trucks under the FY 84 budget. The bids were as fol-
lows:
General Electric; Houston $16,412
Motorola, Inc. ; Houston 16,676
Coastal Electronics; Beaumont 29,997
An=$11,132 bid was submitted by DEG Marine Electronics of Port Neches on
equipment which did not meet specifications. The $16,412 low bid of General
Electric'Company is the lowest meeting the specifications and is well below
the $22,000 budgeted for the purchase.
Having two-way radio communications will permit the department to provide the

Subject: Renewal of Contract from Texas Municipal League - Reference Workers
Compensation Coverage from 10-1-83 to 10.4-86
Enclosed is a three-year renewal proposal' from Texas Municipal League Workers-
Compensation Joint Insurance Fund for the City of Beaumont workers comipensa-
tion coverage for the period October 1, 1983 to October 1, 1986. The TML
Workers Compensation Joint Insurance Fund has provided a good level of ser-
vice to the City of Beaumont for more than nine years.
The! proposal indicates that the selection of a servicing contractor for the
fund was accomplished through comprehensive formal competitive bidding process.
Detailed bid specificotions were distributed to all interested bidders and for- .
mal proposals. were accepted. The proposal also indicates that the TML Board
awarded the service contract to that contractor they deemed to have the most
competitive pricing and also the capability and expertise to provide outstand-
ing services.
The TML Board has recommended Johnson and Higgins of Texas, Inc. as the ser-
vicing contractor for the fund. Johnson and Higgins will be responsible for
the! technical coordination of claims management, risk control and training,
management information, and catastrophic-,re-insurance-services for the City
of Beaumont. Johnson and Higgins of Texas, Inc. is the oldest insurance
brokerage firm in the .United.States having begun operations in 1845; it is
currently the fourth largest insurance brokerage firm in the nation. They cur-
rently manage 140 insurance or re-insurance companies which will allow the
City of Beaumont access to a wide range of municipal operations throughout' the
country. Johnson and Higgins Texas operations were established in 1968 and
operate from two branch offices in Houston and Dallas with more than 150 em-
plcyees.
One. of the strongest points for remaining with the TML Fund is flexibility of
1� program design and the option to pick and choose services on a needs basis.
1� This flexibility will be of advantage to us in designing specific programs
111 for our particular needs.
The! fund shall at all times provide for. unlimited catastrophic re-insurance
of the Employer Member in excess of $150,000 for any one accident or oc-
currence. The fund shall at-all times provide for unlimited aggregate stop- ;
loss re-insurance to assure that the incurred losses shall not exceed the
maximum of 75% of combined cash-flow cities' standard,contributions per
fund year.

qDear Cameron:
We are pleased to submit a renewal proposal for the City of Beaumont's
workers' compensation coverage for the period October 1, 1983 to October 1 ,
1986.
The TML Workers' Compensation Joint Insurance Fund has consistently pro-
vided efficient and economical services to the City of Beaumont for more
than nine years. We propose to continue in that role with a new user sen-
sitive, totally flexible, and high tech look that will respond to the
City's risk management needs in the eighties.
While you personally are familiar with the services provided through the
TML Fund, many of your fellow staff members and city councilmembers may not
be. Therefore, this proposal provides a comprehensive review of all the
components of our service.
We look forward to personally presenting this proposal and stand ready to
respond to any questions you may have in the interim. We trust you will
find this proposal in order and anticipate a continued relationship with
the City of Beaumont for the upcoming three-year period.
Sincerely,
William I. Martin— Jr.

TEXAS MUNICIPAL LEAGUE INSURANCE SERVICES
A. The Texas Municipal League Workers' Compensation Joint Insurance Fund
is governed by a blue chip Board of Trustees composed of Texas city
administrators and elected officials. Under their leadership, the
Fund has grown to a membership of over 635 cities and other related
political subdivisions. This encompasses coverage of over 90,000
public employee lives and premiums in excess of $45 million making the
program the largest governmental self-insurance pool in the United
States.
B. The Board continually monitors the performance results of the Fund.
Annually, they engage a Big 8 accounting firm to conduct a complete
financial audit to assure the Fund's financial integrity. An actu-
arial review of incurred loss and allocated claims expense is con-
ducted to assure that loss reserves are adequate, reasonable, and not
excessive. The Board periodically engages a professional risk
management consulting firm to evaluate the overall Fund performance as
well as the quality of contract services provided by the servicing
contractor. All of these monitoring activities of the Board assure
top performance and relieve the individual Fund members of much of
this responsibility. In addition, the selection of a servicing
contractor for the Fund is accomplished through_ a compreh nsive, for-
mal, competitive bidding process. Detailed DTd-specifications are
distributed to all interested bidders, and formal proposals are
accepted. The Board awar s the service contract to that contr
they deem to have the most competitive pricing but also the capability
and expertise to provide outstanding service. This bidding process
KI fulfills the obligations of each of the members of the Fund to bid out
$5,00O. as
their insurance coverages whose premiums are in excess of
prescribed in Attorney General upinion mw-494. The process also
assures that the fees of the servicing contractor are competitive in
the current marketplace.
C. The TML Risk and insurance Management Services staff in Austin pro-
vides overall coordination and administration of the entire operations
of the Fund. They coordinate numerous training seminars attended by
City of Beaumont personnel. This includes annually the Big City
Colloquium on Risk Management and Employee Benefits and the annual
Regional Risk Management Workshop. Periodically they arrange for a
contract review session involving City, TML, and contractor personnel
where suggestions for improvement, complaints, redirection of efforts,
communication is aired. The staff stays abreast of
and similar
municipal-related state and national risk management developments and
transmits the significant ones in their monthly publication to the
cities. They serve as a continuing resource to the cities for
insurance service matters.
SERVICING CONTRACTOR BACKGROUND AND EXPERIENCE
A. Johnson & Higgins of Texas, Inc. (J&H) is the oldest insurance bro
kerage firm in the U.S. having begun operations in 1845; it is
currently the fourth largest insurance brokerage firm in the nation.
B. J&H is the nation's largest manager of captive insurance companies.
They currently manage 140 insurance or reinsurance companies of which
40 are association owned and/or operated. Under their "no-profit-
center" concept they will be able to draw on the talents of their
management companies and other J&H offices around the country without
any chargebacks for assistance rendered. This is important because it
allows the City of Beaumont to have access to a wide range of munici-
pal operations throughout the country.
C. J&H Texas operations were established in 1968 and operate from two
branch offices in Houston and Dallas with more than 150 employees. As
servicing contractor for the TML Fund, J&H will be responsible for the
technical coordination of claims, risk control, management informa-
tion, and excess insurance services to the City of Beaumont.
III„ CLAIMS ADMINISTRATION
A. The General Adjustment Bureau, Inc. (GAB) will provide claims service
usual and necessary for administration of the Texas Workers' Compensa-
limited to, receipt of Employers' First
tion Law, including, but not
Report of Injury from Fund Members, assign cases to licensed workers'
compensation adjusters, properly investigate accidents, make contact
with claimant and/or witnesses on lost-time injuries as needed or as
requested by the City of Beaumont or by the Fund, determine compen-
sability, compute proper compensation rate, establish appropriate loss
reserves, issue drafts drawn on the Fund for appropriate compensation
and medical payments, maintain proper cost containment on medical and
hospital expense by medical and hospital audits, make periodic
"activity checks" on injured employees and/or beneficiaries, prepare
all settlement agreement forms and other instruments required by the
Industrial Accident Board, prepare all required notices, and respond
to requests for information from the IAB.
B. GAB will initiate compensation payments to injured employees on undis-
puted claims in the most expedient manner possible. With respect to
"promptness of first payment," we now have legislation which estab-
lishes demanding procedures. H.B. 2081 relates to promptness of pay-
ment and suspension of benefits, fines, and penalties by adding a new
Section 18a to Article 8306. This legislation becomes effective
1-1-84. It places a 20 day limitation of promptness of payment from
receipt of written notice (E-1, letter from claimant, physician,
employer, etc. , or any written documentation of an alleged claim) .
The legislation places a 10 day limitation from date of suspension of
weekly indemnity or medical benefits for providing the IAB with a sta-
tement which fully sets out the reason for such action.
C. It is GAB's philosophy to be tough and "hard nosed" in claims handl-
ing, paying everything that an injured employee deserves under the
law, but vigorously resisting the inflated or fraudulent demands that
are outside the scope of the law. GAB utilizes special investigative
procedures to investigate suspected fraudulent and/or exaggerated
claims .
i .
- 2 -
i :
D. GAB claims personnel receive rigorous training and all are required to
pass the State required licensing examination in workers' compensa-
tion, property and casualty. Each field claims adjuster operates
under the close "on-line" supervision of an Austin claims manager who
has heavy experience in handling workers' compensation claims. The
fully-automated GAB claims management system allows the adjuster to
devote his valuable time to field investigations rather than time con-
suming office paperwork.
Overall, the Beaumont servicing office of GAB has three adjusters with
an average of five years experience.
E. The average case load per adjuster for the above is 121 which is also
the average for the entire Beaumont GAB office. While we cannot
guarantee case loads, it is our objective to maintain an overall case
load average in the range of 125 - 135.
F. International Rehabilitation Associates (IRA) is one of our subcon-
tractors which is nationally recognized for the work they do in ample-
` menting rehabilitation programs designed to return the injured
employee to the job as soon as possible. This is one of the few rehab
services available in the southwest, and they handle rehab cases for
many other insurance companies on a contract basis. The current rate
for this service is $47 per hour, and this is charged as an allocated
claims expense. The service is recommended where appropriate and used
with prior approval of the City.
IV. RISK CONTROL SERVICES
The Hartford Specialty Company staff of trained safety professionals,
located in the Houston office, will provide comprehensive risk control ser-
vices customized to the specific needs of the City. Hartford utilizes the
problem-oriented management consulting approach, and our goal will be to
prioritize the areas that will produce the most favorable loss experience
for the City. Annually Hartford will develop, in consultation with the
City Safety Director, a comprehensive, tailor-made plan of service to give
direction and priority to your critical loss prevention activities. We
anticipate placing greater emphasis on employee training at all levels--
department/division, safety coordinator, and selected supervisors. Special
projects involving Back Injury Prevention, High Speed Driving, and Hazard-
ous :Material Handling will be available for implementation in the City of
Beaumont operations. Likewise, investigations of serious accidents are
important and will not be neglected.
i
V. MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM
A. TML/J&H proposes a Management Information System (MIS) that far
exceeds current capabilities. We can make available dedicated CRTs in
City of Beaumont offices that will provide on-line retrieval and
report writing capabilities. J&H will provide the necessary training
to implement this system. This approach will ensure that you have
total flexibility in administering your program, but at the same time,
participate in a vital statistical data base with other TML Fund
cities.
3 -
B. In addition to the basic MIS reports, the system has a broad selection
of information retrieval and output report format capabilities through
preprogrammed main frame batch applications. Our system will also
permit interactive on-line access to your data base with the ability
to produce customized management reports, financial models, and deci-
sion support information.
C. The on-line system provides your risk manager, claims administrator,
or safety director with a powerful tool. It provides a valuable link
to the TML Data Base. It is user-friendly and menu driven, and it
guides the operator through a series of questions or pinpoints exactly
the specific information needed from the data base. Extensive data
base analysis can provide answers in minutes to questions normally
requiring hours of research.
VI.. EXCESS INSURANCE
A. This is combined specific excess and aggregate stop loss coverage
written through U. S. Fire Insurance Group, an affiliate of the Crum
and Forster organization. It is designed to reduce the City's liabi-
lity to a predetermined level on any catastrophic occurrence as well
as stop overall losses at 75% of standard consideration (premium) .
` This reduces the fluctuations of total claims losses, from year to
year, and therefore increases their predictability resulting in more
accurate budget projections.
B. The alternative self-insurance retentions (SIR) and their respective
pricing are listed in the Summary of Cost section. Please note the
absence of maximum limit ; coverage is unlimited.
VII. SU`MARY OF COSTS
A. Claims Administration
$24 per medical-only claim
$180 per indemnity claim
$6.50 per claim charge for management information system support
B. Risk Control Services
$43 per hour of sfety professional consultation
$53 per hour for industrial hygiene (as needed)
C. Administrative Services
2.0% of standard contributions (not to exceed $75,000) for Fund
Administration and Program Management Services. Note : Debit modifier
not used in calculating standard contribution for the purpose of
assessing Administrative Services fee; will use 1.0 or credit modifier
whichever is lower)
$34 payroll audit hour when required.
