Consider Establishing Regulations on Electrically Charged Fences
For several council meetings, Council has discussed regulating and
controlling electrically charged fences in Baytown. An ordinance has been prepared
providing that electrical fences will be permitted in places where livestock is
permitted, 1.e., not within one hundred feet of a residence other than the owner of
the livestock. Livestock does not include dogs. The fences will be permitted as
long as they are UL approved, and are operated in accordance with the Manufacturer's
specifications. The administration does not recommend that permits and inspections be
required because this could expose the Cty to some liability. Also, there is no
provision requiring that these fences be reported to the city.
Mr. Jack Hester, explained that the steps to prohibit electrical fences
was begun because oflis fence. Mr. Hester stated that he had originally installed
the fence to confine two dogs; however, he no longer has the dogs and the electricity
is no longer in operation. Mr. Hester urged council not to pass the ordinance
prohibiting the fences in residential areas.
Houston has an ordinance prohibiting electrically charged fences
altogether, and the administration was requested to inquire about their history with
these fences. Council concurred to refer this back to the administration for more study.

East District Sanitary Sewer Improvements
5624
In July of 1973, the city received notification from the EPA that Baytown was
being offered $1,058.250 for a Step 2 -3 Wastewater Facilities Project, which would be
enlargement of the East District Sewage Treatment Plant. One of theconditions of that
grant was than an Infiltration /Inflow Analysis be completed prior to the first scheduled
payment of the grant, and prior to approval of the plans and specifications. The offer
had six items that must be included in the analysis, one of them being that if it is
more cost effective to rehabilitate the system than to provide capacity in the system,
a remedial plan of action to correct the infiltration must be submitted for approval.
r The EPA advised that if the analysis was made of theEast District, in accordance with
these conditions, and if the analysis was made of theEast District, in accordance with
these conditions, and if the analysis was accepted, that Baytown would be permitted
r
to go ahead with the construction:. This analysis was made, and submitted to EPA, and
it appears that it meets their requirements.
However, the EPA has notified Baytown last week that due to a change in the
guidelines, Baytown will not be able to go ahead with construction as previously advised.
There are several options available, one being to "descope," or ask for a change in the
grant from a Step 2- 3(construction), to a Step 1 -EPA grant to make a thorough study of
the system. Another option is to appeal the decision, or talk with EPA about
an approach being used in several other cities, which is to locate the points of the
greatest amount of inflow and correct these, and then proceed with the grant.
Mr. Lanham suggested that he and Mr. Ivan Langford go to Dallas and talke with
EPA regarding the latter option; council concurred with this.
-Councilman Cannon leaves.
