As part of the 2010 UASI Homeland Security grant program there was a Regional Epidemiological Communication and Collaboration project that was managed by Kaye Reynolds of the Fort Bend County Health and Human Services Department.

Bob Stone Planning Coordinator Fort Bend County Office Of Emergency Management A.Purpose The purpose of this document is to define the activities involved and the roles and responsibilities assigned to implement an effective, accurate and timely surveillance and epidemiological response to both usual and unusual disease events between the local health departments in the Texas Department of State Health Service Region 6/5S. B.Background The role of surveillance and epidemiology is to monitor the health of the community and recognize unusual patterns of disease that may require intervention to protect the health of the citizens. Ongoing, systematic surveillance of illness and other health-related events allows for a normal pattern to be documented and therefore an unusual occurrence will be detected more rapidly. C.Authority The Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) is responsible for the surveillance of communicable and reportable conditions, and for the investigation of disease outbreaks. D.Direction and Control The above authority is delegated to the Local Health Authorities in jurisdictions where there is a local health department and a Local Health Authority and to the DSHS Regional Director and regional department for jurisdictions where there is no local health department or Local Health Authority. It is the responsibility of each Local Health Authority to implement a program of surveillance, disease reporting,outbreak management and control, and communication of public health information to the Regional Health Department,the State Health Department and the general public as appropriate. Within each jurisdiction, various staff carry out the specific activities of surveillance, epidemiology, outbreak investigation and control. During an outbreak or large scale investigation,teams from more than one local health department will be activated to collaborate in the epidemiological response and provide surge capacity. Reporting health conditions to the region and the state health departments is the responsibility of the department conducting the surveillance for a particular health event or the outbreak investigation team. Communication of risk and prevention and control methods is the responsibility of the Local Health Authority/local health department. In the case of a widespread outbreak or other health event, risk communication should be coordinated and follow the same guidance across all jurisdictions within the region. RESOLUTION NO.

BACKGROUND The City currently uses the Questys imaging system to capture and retain business documents for all City departments. The current solution requires an upgrade which will also result in an increase in yearly maintenance costs. The imaging system in use by the Police Department for criminal records has recently been upgraded to a Laserfiche imaging solution. By expanding the Laserfiche imaging system we can handle the entire City's imaging needs with a single solution that provides less costly yearly maintenance,less hardware requirements,updated storage methods and more user friendly interfaces. As the current provider of the software utilized by Police, MCCI is the sole source for Laserfiche imaging software that will expand the current system. Sole source purchases are exempt from competitive bidding requirements under State of Texas statues. One (1) year of software maintenance and support is included in the purchase.

BACKGROUND Streets and Drainage has increased the number of street rehabilitation projects to be completed each year from approximately twenty—five (25)to seventy (70). The recycler-mixer is equipment that is essential to the rehabilitation process. It is used to grind the existing roadway material and recycle it by mixing with cement slurry to create a fully stabilized base material that is much harder and more water resistant than the existing material. The recycler-mixer will replace a 1997 model that has become unreliable and expensive to repair and maintain. The old unit will be kept as a backup for the new equipment for as long it remains functional. Pricing for the equipment was obtained through BuyBoard, a cooperative purchasing association providing cities and political subdivisions with the means to purchase specialized equipment at volume pricing. BuyBoard complies with State of Texas procurement statutes. Manufacturer's warranty for the recycler-mixer is one year or one thousand (1,000)hours. Warranty service is available from the local dealer. Delivery is expected within thirty (30) days. FUNDING SOURCE Lease Purchase Agreement with the first debt payment planned for in the FY 2014 Budget- Capital Reserve Fund. RECOMMENDATION Approval of the resolution. RESOLUTION NO.

PASSED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Beaumont this the 11th day of December, 2012. - Mayor Becky Ames - 3 December 11,2012 Consider a resolution approving a one year contract with Capital Edge to provide services as the City of Beaumont's Washington Assistant RICH WITH OPPORTUNITY BEAUMON* T • E • a • A • 8 City Council Agenda Item TO: City Council FROM: Kyle Hayes, City Manager MEETING DATE: December 11, 2012 REQUESTED ACTION: Council consider approving a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an annual agreement with Capital Edge to provide services as the City of Beaumont's Washington Assistant. BACKGROUND On a yearly basis since 1980,the City has contracted with an organization to provide legislative service on the federal level. Ms. Chaney, as the City's Washington Assistant, is responsible for reviewing federal executive proposals, legislation under consideration, and proposed and adopted administrative rules and regulations which could impact the City of Beaumont's policies or programs. Staff is especially pleased with the successful outcome of efforts to pass FAA legislation that is intended to allow the use of mineral revenues derived from the Municipal Airport property for transportation projects. A letter from Ms. Chaney and the proposed contract are attached for your review. The contract amount of$68,400 represents an 11.24% increase in a rate that has not changed since 2009. The contract also includes a maximum of$4,000 for reimbursable expenses. FUNDING SOURCE General Fund. RECOMMENDATION Approval of resolution. CapitalEdge November 21, 2012 Mr.Kyle Hayes City Manager P.O. Box 3827 Beaumont,TX 77704 Dear Kyle: Please consider this a formal request for a twelve month renewal of our contract with the City for federal lobbying and information services. We are suggesting an increase in our annual compensation level to $68;400,which we hope is in line with your budget for our services. Enclosed is an updated contract for your review. We consider this year to be a tremendous success for the City on the federal level, highlighted by the passage of a law that will allow the City to use revenues derived from natural gas royalties at Beaumont Municipal Airport for other transportation infrastructure projects in the community. This was an achievement that many in Washington believed could not be accomplished, and we are proud to be part of a team that brought together the Mayor and City Council, City staff, FAA officials, and the congressional delegation to a successful conclusion. Congress also managed to approve a reauthorization of federal surface transportation programs this year, and that will provide some stability for federal highway and transit programs over the next two years. Of course,we expect conversations about a longer-term transportation bill, and the necessary revenues to meet the nation's growing infrastructure needs,to begin in Congress as early as next year. Negotiations over long-term deficit reduction are expected to have an impact on federal assistance to Beaumont, and we plan to be active in advocating against proposals that would further reduce funding for important domestic discretionary programs at agencies such as HUD. In addition,we also plan to engage actively against proposals to eliminate the tax-exempt status of municipal bonds in the name of deficit reduction. It remains a great pleasure to serve the City of Beaumont in Washington,and we are grateful for your guidance and that of the Mayor and City Council. Please feel free to contact us at your convenience for any questions you may have about our services or the proposed contract. Sincerely, Lv � S Carolyn C. Chaney Christopher F.
