a. Ms. Wanda Carter requested to appear before the Council regarding the Baytown
Animal Shelter.
Ms. Wanda Carter presented the agenda item and stated that the Baytown animal shelter is in
need of better management therefore a petition has been formed by herself and the group called
Citizens For a Change at Baytown Animal Control with the request of hiring experienced and/or
licensed employees, as well as, implementing programs that will assist the Baytown Animal
Control with housing strayed animals and the issue of the overpopulation of animals in the city.
Jennifer Mandujano, Kristina Kane, Lou Sisk, Lynn Urlaub, Kathy Zeagler, VaDonna Howell,
Jay Garrett, and Elaine Morris all registered to speak before Council regarding agenda item La.
Ms. Jennifer Mandujano stated that the stray animals are disregarded and should be networked
better.
Ms. Kristina Kane stated that she works with three (3) local rescues in the Houston area and
recently they pull predominantly from Baytown. She stated that the Baytown shelter's policy and
procedures don't adhere to their outline. She further stated that the rescues main priority is to
help stop the over population of animals and recommended that Baytown implement the Spay,
Neuter, and Vaccination Program to assist with this solution.
Ms. Lou Sisk stated that she's a coordinator for rescues and coordinated rescues out at the
Baytown Shelter as a volunteer from October of last year until the end of May. She stated that
with the help of Patti Jett she set up the Baytown Animal Shelter Pet Facebook Page in January
to continue networking the animals which resulted in 337 rescued animals from January through
May compared to 20 rescued animals this same timeframe last year. She stated that she was
asked to lie about a shelter employee to her supervisor when state came in last month and when
she didn't do it was verbally abused which made it impossible to return to the shelter. She stated
that she would like to return to the shelter to continue working the animals so that they can be
rescued.
Ms. Lynn Urlaub stated that she recently moved here from Chicago in August and visited the
Baytown Animal Shelter in October to rescue a dog (Snickers). She stated that the same day
Snickers was taken to Pet Smart to be vetted and they recognized that the dog had a chip which
no on from the Baytown Shelter bothered to check. She stated that the shelter needs new
management.
Ms. Kathy Zeagler stated that education is the key to making this shelter better and requested
changes to be made for the betterment of the animals and the community.
Ms. VaDonna Howell stated that she agrees with the other speakers, but because she was told
by the Director that the facility is considered an animal control and not an animal shelter she
needed clarity as to which is correct.

Mr. Jay Garrett stated that in 2014, the kill rate for the number of dogs was 68% and the number
of cats was 92% according to the Baytown Animal Controls monthly reports. He stated that the
reports were inaccurate and it was brought to the City's attention but nothing was done about it.
He stated that Baytown's kill rate compared to the national average is 18% higher and with the
major growth of this city attention should be aimed towards growth in the shelter.
Ms. Elaine Morris stated that she moved her about two (2) years ago and discovered that there
was a cat issue in the apartment complex where she lived and when contacting Mike Lester was
told that there were no funds to assist with the issue. She stated that she volunteers for rescues
and changes need to be made immediately
During further discussion, the consensus of the Council was to visit the Animal Control
facility, have an audit conducted, and make a plan to address the results of the audit for a
resolution to the issues. City Manager Davis stated with respects to having a quorum for the visit
to the facility, a notice is needed and time will be allowed for the absent council members to be
updated.

4. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
a. Consider a resolution adopting the revised Homebuyers' Assistance Program
Guidelines.
Mrs. June Tyler presented the agenda item and stated that the Community Development Block
Grant ( "CDBG ") programs deals with limited funding, therefore the Community Development
Division reviews all programs on a frequent basis, in order to maximize how the limited
Community Development Block Grant ( "CDBG ") dollars are spent locally. She stated that every
year staff evaluates the programs on its effectiveness and in doing so recognized that the once
popular Homebuyers' Assistance Program has experienced a steady decline in activity with
closing on as many as 22 homes in the past to closing on 14 in 2013, eight (8) in 2014 and two
(2) so far in 2015. She stated that due to a lack of participation, Staff consulted with area realtors,
lenders and residents who inquired about the program, but eventually purchased a home without
the grant funding. She stated that the consultations overwhelming resulted with the maximum
sale price being too low and in doing research found out that the average sales price of a home in
Baytown is $175,000. She stated that they also found out that $105,000 and below is considered
an at risk loan, so when a low to moderate income person tries to purchase a home at $105,000
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
July 09, 2015

they're being denied for that mortgage. Additionally, Mrs. Tyler stated that Staff is proposing an
increase in the maximum sales price from $105,000 to $140,000.
A motion was made by Council Member Robert C. Hoskins and seconded by Council Member
Chris Presley approving Resolution No. 2363. The vote was as follows:

RESOLUTION NO. 2363
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BAYTOWN,
TEXAS, ADOPTING THE CITY OF BAYTOWN'S HOMEBUYERS'
ASSISTANCE PROGRAM GUIDELINES; PROVIDING FOR A REPEALING
CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING FOR THE EFFECTIVE DATE THEREOF.
b. Discuss the 2015 -2019 Citizen Participation Plan (the "Plan) for the Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program.
C. Discuss the HUD 5 -Year Consolidated Plan (the "Plan ") for 2015 -2019 for the City
of Baytown.
d. Discuss the 2015 -2016 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) budget as
recommended by the Community Development Advisory Committee (CDAC).
Mrs. Tyler presented agenda items 4.b., 4.c.and 4.d. altogether. She stated that Citizens
Participation Plan discusses how the City will gain input from the public in regards to the all
CDBG programs, sets forth rules for public hearings and meetings, and tell time and place of
advertising. She stated that the 5 -Year Consolidated Plan sets priorities and describes how
HUD's resources will be used locally for the next five (5) years. She stated that once the
priorities are set any changes thereafter must be approved by HUD first. She further stated that
the action plan describes how the CDBG funds will be spent for the 2015 -2016 year only. She
stated that in order to assure compliance with all three (3) plans they awarded a contract with Ms.
Peg Purser, with MKP Consultants. She stated that Ms. Purser has worked with the City before
and will discuss the consolidated plan in which this will be the 4`h one she's done for the City of
Baytown.
Ms. Peg Purser stated that the Citizens Participation Plan has been in effect for about 20 years
and must be updated for the consolidated plan. She stated that the two major changes made to the
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
July 09, 2015
Page 8 of 12
Citizen Participation Plan which included the first change being that the City decides what
constitutes a substantial amendment to the consolidated plan or the action plan. She stated that
traditionally for Baytown it has been that if 25% or more of the allocation is being moved
from one project to another, from HUD that constitutes a substantial amendment and although
HUD leaves it up to the City to decide, they don't like it to be greater than 20% moved;
therefore, she stated that the amendment threshold is being proposed to be decreased to 20% of
the annual allocation from one project to another or for a new project. Ms. Purser stated that the
second change was adding more strength to the Section 3 hiring requirements which is a federal
requirement that any entity getting federal funds at different levels must do due diligence at the
extent possible hire low income individuals primarily from the City.
During further discussion, Ms. Purser stated that the Consolidated Plan requires extensive
citizen and community input in which they did. She stated that they submitted the results from
the surveys to the CDAC to set the priorities for the need of the community. She stated that the
plan priorities included decent housing, suitable living environment, and economic opportunity.
She stated that of the three (3) priorities that the CDAC set forth, they listed projects that they
have a high priority to fund, but may subject to change which includes: housing rehabilitation,
housing energy efficiency improvements, accessibility improvements for the disabled, housing
demolitionlreconstruction, down - payment assistance and counseling for 151 time buyers, fair
housing assistance and education to renters /landlords, demolition of unsafe abandoned structures,
neighborhood parks, including improved lighting, code enforcement and neighborhood clean-
ups, transportation services, new and improved sidewalks including improved lighting, and
senior and disabled services. Ms. Purser stated that although some of the projects may not be
funded they are included just in case to avoid having to do a substantial amendment.
Council Member McCartney stated in regards to the housing rehabilitation that in the past certain
houses were chosen for complete rehabilitation and he would like to see the funds shared among
more houses to prevent them from getting to a dilapidated state of being demolished.
During further discussion of the Action Plan, Ms. Purser stated that the anticipated funding
is $651,748 for annual allocation, $20,000 for unexpended, and $5,000 for program income. She
stated that the CDAC's funding recommendations are as follows: $97,275 for substandard
structure abatement; $6,000 for neighborhood improvement programs; $327,390 for housing
activities; $72,579 for City of Baytown community development transportation; $12,000 for
Baytown Resource Center Shoe program; $4,500 towards the Baytown evening optimists youth
football; $6,000 towards Bay Area Homeless Services Project Bridge; $8,000 Communities in
Schools School Daze College/Business; and $143,004 towards program administration.
Council Member McCartney inquired how to address homelessness situations in the city. Ms.
Purser stated that there were two problems: 1) because of the size of Baytown, it doesn't receive
specific emergency solution grant funds from HUD and there aren't enough economies of scale
for a lot of the homeless service providers to be in the immediate Baytown area. Council
Member McCartney further inquired if Baytown partnering with some of the surrounding smaller
communities would qualify to receive one in a better proximity rather than going all the way into
Houston. In response to Council Member McCartney inquiry, Ms. Purser stated that partnering
would qualify and that Bay Area is the main homeless provider in town. Mrs. Foster stated that
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
July 09, 2015
Page 9 of 12
there is a program in Harris County called the Continue of Care which provides homeless
services throughout the area that are either funding sources or referrals to the larger shelter into
Houston and that immediate services for Baytown would be to our local shelter.
