PREPARED BY: Frank C. Coffin, Jr., Chief of Police 16
MEETING DATE: July 28, 2009
REQUESTED ACTION: Consider a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to
execute all documents necessary, specifically including a
contract, in order for the Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task
Force ( City of Beaumont) to transfer a vehicle title to the
Hardin County Sheriffs Office.
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends approval.
BACKGROUND
The Texas Gov't. Code Ann. Sec. 791.001 allows local governments to contract with one another
to provide a governmental function that each local government is authorized to perform
individually. This year, the City of Beaumont, City of Port Arthur, Jefferson County, Hardin
County, Jasper County and Orange County entered into an Interlocal contract with each other,
forming a joint cooperative agency which is known as the Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task
Force. For fiscal year 2009, a joint application for grant funding of this task force was filed with
the Automobile Theft Prevention Authority of the State of Texas, and funds were awarded in the
amount of$547,919.
Using these grant funds, the Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force recently purchased a 2009
Ford F150 truck to be used by our investigators in furtherance of the Task Force's objectives.
This vehicle will be used to replace a 2005 truck with approximately 139,000 miles that has been
assigned to the Hardin County Sheriff's Investigator with the task force. This investigator covers
the Ilardin, Jasper, and Orange Count}, areas. In 2005 the City of Beaumont and the Southeast
Texas Auto Theft Task Force entered in to an agreement with I lardin County to transfer the title
of the vehicle to allow Ilardin County to maintain the vehicle and provide insurance. This
agreement worked to the advantage of all parties and the Southeast Texas Auto Theft Task Force
is requesting that a similar agreement be entered into, allowing the purchased 2009 vehicle to be
transferred to IIardin County in accordance with past practice. The 2005 vehicle will be returned
to the task force to be sold at auction for program income, in accordance with the past agreement.
BUDGETARY IMPACT
No budgetary impact. Grant funding of$15,227 and Auto Theft Mask Force program income of
$9,346 has been combined to pay for the purchase of the vehicle. ($24,573)
RESOLUTION NO.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT:
THAT the City Manager be and he is hereby authorized to execute a Use and Maintenance

purposes.

MEETING DATE: July 28, 2009
REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider approving a resolution authorizing the City
Manager to execute an agreement with Public Agency
Retirement Services (PARS).
RECOMMENDATION
The administration recommends approval of a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute
an agreement with PARS to provide an alternative retirement system for part-time, seasonal, and
temporary employees (PST's).
BACKGROUND
The City of Beaumont is required to contribute an amount equal to 6.2%of each employee's salary
to social security and the employee is required to contribute the same amount for a total contribution
of 12.4%.
In 1990 Congress adopted the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA) which mandates that
PST's not covered by a retirement program be enrolled in social security or an alternative retirement
program which meets the statutory requirements of the Act. PARS offers an Alternative Retirement
System (ARS) that meets those requirements and complies with IRC 3121 (b) (7) (F).
The ARS program provides certain benefits to both the PST and the City. The legislation requires
a minimum contribution to the alternative plan of 7.5%. The PST's contribution will, therefore,
remain the same as it is under social security (6.2%). The City will contribute the remaining 1.3%
for a total of 7.5%. The reduced rate of contribution by the City(1.3%vs. 6.2%)results in estimated
first year savings of 527,000. This level of savings will continue each year with the amount varying
depending on the total number of PST's and their related salaries.
Agreement with PARS
July 29, 2009
In addition to the savings that will be recognized by the City, the Plan offers many benefits to the
employee/participant. Benefits include:
1. PST's are fully vested in their individual accounts upon the date of employment.
2. PST contributions to the ARS program are pre-tax which will result in an increase in take home
pay for the PST.
3. Contributions to the ARS program increase account balances without limit.
4. In the event of a PST's separation from the City, the PST may immediately receive, without
penalty, the contributed funds as a lump sum amount or those funds may be rolled over to an IRA
or other qualified plan that accepts rollovers.
A draft agreement is attached.
BUDGETARY IMPACT
Potential savings of$27,000, in payroll taxes in the first year, depending upon the total number
of PSTs and their related wages.
RESOLUTION NO.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT:
THAT the City Manager be and he is hereby authorized to execute an Agreement for
Administrative Services with Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) to provide an
alternative retirement system for part-time, seasonal and temporary employees (PSTs).
The agreement is substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit"A" and made a part
hereof for all purposes.
PASSED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Beaumontthis the 28th day of July,
2009.

provisions of this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement upon no less than ninety (90)

REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider authorizing the Mayor to sign all
documents relating to the City possibly receiving $986,250
through the DR-1791 Hazard Mitigation Grant Program.
RECOMMENDATION
Administration recommends approval.
BACKGROUND
The Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP)provides grants to State and local governments
to implement long-term hazard mitigation measures after a major disaster declaration. Funding
became available following the Hurricane Ike disaster declaration identified as DR-1791. The
state government manages the grant applications for their respective jurisdictions. A tentative
mitigation project to improve the roofs and strengthen the window integrity of the city's
Emergency Operation Center/911 Communication Center, and the Police Department
Headquarters has been favorably reviewed by the state, and with Council approval, will be
submitted to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), under the Department of
Homeland Security. This project would enable both buildings to withstand wind force greater
than traditional building codes and will protect our first responders and critical communications
and technology infrastructure during severe weather events. The grant requires that the official
head of the governing body, being the Mayor, sign all documents.
BUDGETARYIMPACT
If awarded, grant funding would be $986,250 with a required match by the City of$328,750.
The project is included in the proposed Capital Program for Fiscal Years 2010-2014. If the
proposed Capital Program is approved, the City's match would be provided for therein.
RESOLUTION NO.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF BEAUMONT:
THAT the City Manager be and he is hereby authorized to apply for and receive funding
