City Manager's Report
Trash Transfer - The trash transfer day held on October
29 was very successful. A total of 730 cubic yards of debris
was removed. This is the largest amount collected on a trash
transfer day. The Clean City Commission is studying the
possibility of having another trash transfer day in January.
There may be a need for another day to dispose of trash and
debris created by Hurricane Alicia.

Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
United Way - The City of Baytown's United Way campaign
for 1983 was very successful. Flora Wilhite headed the cam-
paign and city employees increased their contributions over
last year by eight (8 %) percent. Mr. Lanham commended Mrs.
Wilhite for a job well done, along with all those who helped
with the campaign. He mentioned that the increased contribution
is an indication of the caliber employees of the City of
Baytown. Councilman Philips stated that he felt this was an
indication that city employees want to contribute to the
community and he appreciated that effort.
Educational Loan Program - Several months ago, the
Administration had discussed with Council the possibility
of the City of Baytown, in cooperation with Harris County,
establishing an educational loan program for Harris County.
The reason that this was discussed with Council is that a
county may not institute this type program, but may cooperate
with a city to establish a program. Since that time,
Hurricane Alicia arrived and there have been County elections
which required immediate attention. The Administration has
been contacted by Tom Masterson, Bond Consultant, and
representatives of Harris County inquiring if Baytown is
still interested in continuing with plans for this program.
One of the reasons for the question is that Harris County
has been invited to join the Bryan/College Station area in
a program of this type. Unlike in their negotiations with
Galveston County on this subject, Harris County would be
invited to appoint six members of an eleven member board.
Since this option is now available to Harris County, the
Administration needed to know if Council wanted to pursue
the establishment of an educational loan program in cooperation
with Harris County.
Council concurred that it would be a good idea for
Baytown to pursue the establishment of an educational loan
program for the Harris County area. There are qualified
people in this area to serve as board members and to provide
input. With the educational loan program being established
for Harris County, the control would be in Harris County.
Traffic Committee - The traffic committee met on October
24 and considered several items that have been discussed at
the Council table. The committee recommended that the inter-
section at Seventh Street and Defee be redesigned to straighten
that intersection to some degree. This can be done in the
existing right of way. The plans are to take in more on the
right and take some off the left to straighten the eastbound
lane. Councilman Simmons commented that he had received
complaints that there are those who are entering the wrong
way at that intersection. Mr. Lanham stated that the Admin-
istration would do more work on that and come back to Council.
Council had received a petition requesting that a three -
way stop be installed at West Sterling and Felton. The
committee recommended that in lieu of that that the police
department be asked to increase enforcement in that area.
That has been done to prevent speeding on Sterling and also,
to prevent truck route violations. The committee felt that
a three -way stop there would not be warranted.
31110 -3
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
The committee has recommended that right of way be
purchased along Baker Road at the intersections where
visibility is a problem. Mr. Lanham stated that the
Administration would come back to Council with drawings
of that.
Industrial Revenue Bonds - Wal -Mart is planning to
construct a store at the corner of Garth and Lynchburg
Cedar Bayou Road, and the Administration has received
a request from Wal -Mart representatives that Baytown
consider authorizing the issuance of industrial revenue
bonds to finance this proposed store. Industrial revenue
bonds are used by many cities in Texas to authorize the
sale of tax exempt bonds to finance a variety of industrial
and commercial activities. Wal -Mart representatives would
like to meet with City Council to discuss this possibility.
Council scheduled a work session for Thursday, November
17 at 4:30 p.m. for this purpose. Council did express
concern that in order to provide this type financing,
the requirement may be that Baytown be declared a blighted
area. Council was also concerned that this may set a
precedent, and Council would be getting numerous requests
to issue these type bonds.
Bayway Drive /Baker Road Drainage Ditch - About
ninety -five (95 %) percent of the right of way has been
cleared for this project, and the contractor is now waiting
for delivery of materials which are expected in late November
or early December.
Rollingbrook Drive Extension - About ninety (90 %) percent
of the drainage system has been installed and seventy -five
(75 %) percent of the drainage ditch has been completed.
Bridge pilings have been installed.
Water Lines along Cedar Bayou Crosby, Hardin and
Barkuloo - Ninety -five (95 %) percent of the 12" line has
been installed on Cedar Bayou Crosby Road; ninety -five
(95 %) percent of the 6" line is in place on Hardin Road
and work has begun on Barkuloo. The project is about
seventy (70%) percent complete.
1983 Street Improvement Program - The contractor has
completed the overlay of West Gulf, West Humble and Lafayette
since the last report. Drainage work on Fleetwood has been
completed, and the old asphalt has been removed in preparation
for resurfacing. On Memorial Drive, ninety (90 %) percent
of the drainage work has been completed. No paving is
scheduled to be performed on Memorial Drive in this program;
however, this should be considered in next year's program.
Reconstruction is complete on Coburn and Fortner and recon-
struction is in progress on North Burnet.
President's Commission on White House Fellowships -
Mayor Cisneros of San Antonio, who was once a White House
Fellow, has written letters to encourage local governmental
officials to apprise those in the community who are suitable
candidates of the program.

Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
Questions /Comments of Council
Council requested that the traffic committee consider a
protected left turn off Pruett Street at Park Street, There
is an offset there which makes it dangerous to turn left
without the protected arrow. There are visibility problems
along Highway 146 due to the shrubbery that has been planted
in the esplanade, and the Administration was asked to see
what could be done about that. Street markings on Garth Road
are in poor condition and the staff was asked to place re-
flectors to mark the center lane. The Administration was
asked to see what could be done to aid the flow of traffic
more safely in the area of North Main that is under con-
struction. This past weekend a car left the roadway and
went off into the ditch.
The Rangers, the Ganders and the La Porte Bulldogs were
commended on their excellent performances.
Consider Establishment of Procedure on the Zoning Issue
Fritz Lanham, City Manager, reported that included in
the packet is a memorandum from the City Attorney outlining
the procedure that must be followed in adopting a zoning
ordinance if one is to be adopted. A copy of that memorandum
is attached to the minutes as Attachment "A."
Randy Strong, City Attorney, stated that on the memorandum,
as one of the options, there is nothing referring to either
initiative procedure or referendum. There have been some
court decisions from a few years back, one involving the
City of Bellaire and the other involving the City of San
Antonio. In these decisions, the courts have said that
zoning is an issue that is controlled by state statutes.
It is one of these peculiar areas where there is certain
procedure set forth by state law and therefore, it is not
subject to initiative or referendum process. The courts
have described a zoning ordinance as a legislative decision
solely up to the decision of a governing body such as City
Council. Therefore, putting zoning up to initiative process
is adding a step to the requirements of state law that is
not required, and the courts have said that steps cannot be
added to a state mandated procedure, nor can steps be deleted.
For example, the Charter of the City of Bellaire is very similar
to that of Baytown, and the courts have held that the provisions
of the general law of the state as adopted by the Charter
of the City of Bellaire, by implication, have withdrawn the
subject of zoning from the field in which the initiatory
process is operative and have reserved this subject from
referendum. The City of Bellaire case was held by the First
Court of Appeals in Houston. In that case, the court held
that even the preparation of the comprehensive zoning ordinance
is a purely legislative function and Council cannot delegate
it, nor turn it over to initiative vote.
In response to a request from Council, the City Attorney
said that what he was saying is that City Council cannot submit
the zoning question to an initiative election. Council is
going to have to decide on its own whether to adopt a zoning
ordinance. The only thing that the City Attorney would venture
31110 -5
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
to suggest, and even the Texas Municipal League representa-
tives were not happy about this suggestion, is to have a
straw vote on the question of zoning, whether the citizens
want to have it or not, and possibly schedule that for the
next regular election. The City Attorney emphasized that
he did not feel that Council could prepare a zoning ordinance
and put that up for election by the citizens. The last time
that was done was in 1969 and it was done right about the
same time that this first case came out that said this could
not be done.
In response to an inquiry from Council, the City Attorney
stated that when this case was decided, there was a three
judge court. There was a trial court making that decision
and the Court of Civil Appeals making the final decision.
The Supreme Court of Texas refused to hear it on the basis
that there was no reversible error. That is the state of
the law. The Court of Appeals is the second highest level
of judicial interpretation in the state, and they said that
it can't be done and the Supreme Court did not feel that they
made an error in saying that. The City of San Antonio case
was appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Supreme
Court refused to hear it also. The City Attorney emphasized
that if the city elected to go through the referendum pro-
cedure and the city were sued, the city would lose the case
and then there is the question of expending funds on an
election when court cases have established to do so is
improper which may be construed as an illegal expenditure
of city funds.
In response to inquiry from Council, the City Attorney
said that the Bellaire case was held in 1969 and the San
Antonio case in 1978. Both courts are saying the same thing,
the particular question in San Antonio was a little different
than Bellaire, but the Court stated the same thing that the
area of zoning has been withdrawn from the initiative and
referendum field. The Bellaire case was cited by the Court
at that time, as well as several others,
The City Attorney had checked with Texas Municipal League
General Counsel to determine if they could furnish additional
information, and they concurred that initiative /referendum
was not possible concerning the question of zoning.
Council was surprised that zoning is precluded from the
initiative /referendum process and that there had been no
news coverage on the matter. The City Attorney mentioned that
probably the reason is that the question doesn't come up that
often. There aren't that many cities that are initiating
zoning particularly, in the Houston area.
Councilman Simmons who had spoken out against zoning
at the previous Council meeting, stated that this is just
another example of what one gets into with all this litiga-
tion about zoning and another good reason not to have it.
Councilman Philips stated that at this point, it
appeared that there is just one large problem after another
associated with zoning, and it just keeps getting back to
the point that the solution to the problem is that to protect
the homeowner and stabilize the subdivisions, Council should
be considering the creation of a city agency that would perpetuate
the deed restrictions in the various subdivisions and be
31110 -6
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
responsible for enforcement. If this kind of strength could
be provided, the homeowner in Baytown would be assured that what
he is buying will be protected and also, there would be a
method established to give the subdivisions relief from some
of the grievances that are now being experienced. Other
problems that are prevalent in the city can be addressed
such as mobile homes, commercial traffic, encroachment,
noise (that is being worked on now), and go ahead and strengthen
the ordinances that can be dealt' with directly, leaving
the zoning issue which will be a very devisive thing. The
way to get on with the improvement of the city and provide
protection to the citizens is to go about it by individual
ordinances that would provide the answers to the grievances
that are brought up in the Council Chamber.
Mr. Philips continued that he had just spoken with the
former mayor of Katy who said that that city had recently
adopted a zoning ordinance which has caused a very devisive
conflict to develop in the city, and it has created a
hierarchy in the city hall that has slowed growth and develop-
ment and has caused disputes. The Council in Katy now has
become nothing more than a zoning /variance commission. All
that is done at Council meetings now is handle arguments
about zoning questions. In order to provide the protection
needed for the citizens of Baytown by less devisive method
and to get into something that Council can specifically deal
with, Councilman Philips moved that Council discontinue the
zoning subject and address these problems that Baytown has
through individual ordinances; Councilman Simmons seconded
the motion.
Mayor Cannon stated that the complaints that he had
heard have not really been associated with violation of deed
restrictions within the subdivisions, but complaints as to
what is happening adjacent to the subdivision. He stated
that he would certainly support perpetuating deed restrictions.
In fact, the city has the authority to enforce deed restrictions
now, but nothing is on the books as far as perpetuating deed
restrictions. There was a problem on Caldwell, but that was
the last one that had been brought to the Mayor's attention
as far as a problem within a subdivision. Mayor Cannon
stated that he did not know of another way to protect
subdivisions from what is happening just outside, other than
zoning.
Councilman Dickens suggested that perhaps Councilman
Philips might like to amend his motion to include the words
that Council take no further action as a body, with regard to
zoning, but look to working with municipal organizations /garden
clubs so that Council could basically cease discussion and
take no further action.
Councilman Philips responded in the affirmative and said
that he thought that if Council would just cease to take
further action here, as Council, on the zoning question and
then openly as a consequence of that invite some people to
come and say where they would like to see some ordinance
strength provided, this would be a normal, natural outcome
of what Council is trying to accomplish.
31110 -7
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
Councilwoman Wilbanks stated that the information
that she had heard tonight had influenced her thinking a
great deal because she perceived the zoning issue as one
that if it was to be considered would be considered in a
referendum situation. She did not see zoning as a decision
that Council should make for the community and therefore,
she felt that legally the court decisions sort of put Council
in a box. For that reason, she would be supportive of Council-
man Philips' motion, as opposed to Council makinq the decision
independently which now is the only alternative given.
Councilman Philips added that Council could get citizen
input on these individual pieces of ordinances that would
be enacted, while Councilman Dickens stated that this would
give Council greater flexibility to deal with an independent
problem rather than letting problems devolve to a smaller
board who may not want to take that decision on their own.
Mayor Cannon inquired as to what type ordinances will
help these problems other than perpetuating deed restrictions.
Councilman Dickens felt that that should be left to the
injured parties. Speaking for himself, he stated that he
would be perfectly willing to work with the civic associations.
Mayor Cannon responded that he could give Council two
instances where Council's hands were tied - -the race track
on Memorial Drive. Councilman Philips responded that the
problems there would have been the same with zoning because
that is a commercial area. Mayor Cannon agreed that that
probably would have been zoned commercial depending on when
zoning was adopted and how that property would have been
zoned. Councilman Dickens pointed out that Council's solution
to that problem was to look into the enactment of a noise
ordinance which is basically what Council is saying that
bit by bit enactment of ordinances as the need arises is
the answer, rather than the blanket suffocation of the city's
growth.
Mayor Cannon put forth this hypothetical point that he
would be interested in purchasing property adjacent to
Allenbrook Subdivision, but would not have plans for develop-
ment until further down the road; therefore, he would just
put in a junkyard. Of course, he would meet the requirements
of the city and build a fence around the area and all other
requirements. Now, what kind of ordinance can Council
adopt to stop this kind of situation?
Councilman Philips responded that in this particular
thing if Council were to sit down today and try to zone out
junkyards just by putting a non - commercial restriction, they
are still going to pop up. He felt that this is an excellent
case again where Council needs to tighten up on the ordinances
that are in place with respect to where certain things can
be located. He emphasized that there is a mobile home
problem, as well as problems with junkyards and other problems
that can be addressed by individual ordinances.
Mayor Cannon pointed out that that gets right back to
zoning and inquired of the City Attorney if Council could
adopt any ordinance which would prohibit one from putting
a junkyard adjacent to Allenbrook with the exception of
having a zoned area.
31110 -8
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
The City Attorney answered that with the question of
prohibiting specific uses, Council would need to come up with
some specific reason. Brookside Village prohibited the
placement of mobile homes outside mobile home parks because
placement of mobile homes elsewhere aggravated the already
existing problems with the water and sewer system. The
courts upheld that since the city had a means by which to
justify its differing treatment of mobile homes.
Mayor Cannon again emphasized that there would be no
way that the city could prohibit an undesirable commercial
enterprise from going in next to Allenbrook. Councilman
Dickens pointed out that Council was overlooking something
and that is the market place at work. No man who is going
to run a junkyard is going to be able to afford that property
next to Allenbrook. Mayor Cannon responded that if he owned
the land, then he could put anything he wanted there. Council-
man Dickens inquired if Mayor Cannon owned the property next
to Allenbrook, if he would put in a low income producing
junkyard or a strip center. He emphasized that ninety (90 %)
percent of the problem will be cured in the market place
where it belongs.
Councilman Dickens stated that a man's basic right to
do with his own property what he wishes is what is at stake.
Mayor Cannon concurred that if the market place will bear
out whatever one wants to put in there, then without zoning
that is what will go in. If this area would be zoned for
a residential area, the residents of Allenbrook would be
assured that no commercial venture of any kind would go in
there. The Mayor pointed out that when a subdivision is
constructed with zoning in place and there is an area zoned
on one side for residential and on the other industrial or
business or whatever, the subdivision is constructed and an
individual buys on the boundary of the subdivision, then
that person has no complaint. This is the thing that Council
is faced with now.
Councilman Dickens pointed out that Council would still
be subjecting itself like the ex -mayor of Katy said to persons
who want variances. He continued that he did not see zoning
as the panecea that some people invision. He stated that he
would much prefer something along the lines of the motion so
that the grievances of civic associations and individual
homeowners can be addressed because that is who Council
needs to protect. However, that can be done on a spot basis
as the need arises. Mayor Cannon responded that if Councilman
Dickens could illustrate how Council can protect against the
things that he had just mentioned, then he might support the
motion. Mayor Cannon continued that Council has heard for
several years that there is nothing to be done about such
things, but perhaps there is new information.
Councilman Philips stated that one of the things that
Council needs to address is the fact that Baytown is a city
that is 50 -60 years old, that the majority of it is in place
and what is left is out there south of Interstate 10 which
part will develop in an orderly fashion because the price
of the land is so high that it will have to be developed very
31110 -9
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
very wisely. No junkyard will jump into place out
there, but the existing in place city is the thing that
Council really needs to look at and realize that to attempt
to zone it would be a nightmare. He stated that he had
spoken with a former professor at the University of Houston
on city planning, and he said that zoning for a city like
Baytown would be very very difficult. To further say that
Council has the wisdom to go out and put a residential or
commercial code on every parcel of property in old Baytown
is a nightmare, and he felt that Council should not attempt
this hugh task. Councilman Philips suggested that the
problems of old Baytown could be solved by adopting ordinances
to clean it up, protect it from being occupied with old,
delapidated unhabitable places. He continued that he had
had many calls, and from those calls, he had conducted a straw
vote which vote represented twenty -seven (27) noes and eleven
(11) ayes. This represents about the same ratio as the vote
in 1969 which indicates very little interest from the citizens
of Baytown in zoning. Most of the people realized that there
are many problems associated with zoning. One of which is
that it will increase the tax rate and cause friction and
devisiveness in the city. He felt that zoning would be too
costly and the Council Chamber would always be filled with
people requesting variances. He couldn't see that as a
means to upgrade the city. The way to upgrade the city is
to enact ordinances to protect the deed restrictions in
place, control noise, traffic, delapidated buildings, com-
mercial debris, etc. If all these things were addressed,
the city could be measurable improved. Zoning will not
transform Baytown into a beautiful city. Council needs to
go to work on what is in place because that's where the
problem is.
Council requested that the motion be read. Mrs. Hall
read the motion as originally stated and mentioned that
Councilman Dickens had suggested an amendment. Councilman
Philips stated that he would include that as part of his
motion.
Mayor Cannon asked if Councilman Philips had in mind a
length of time to delay the discussion of zoning. Would this
be an item that would fit under Council's rules where if an
item is tabled, it cannot be discussed for six months, and
if it is to be discussed again, a majority vote of Council
is required? Councilman Philips responded that he had in
mind that the matter be permanently tabled. Mayor Cannon
clarified that Councilman Philips' motion is that Council
will take no further action on zoning. Councilman Philips
verified that and added, and that Council go in the alterna-
tive direction. Mayor Cannon inquired if that is what
Councilman Simmons had seconded. Councilman Simmons responded
in the affirmative. Mayor Cannon said that in effect Council
was tabling the matter. Councilman Simmons responded that
Council would be voting zoning down.
Mayor Cannon stated that he had one other comment and
that is if zoning were adopted, Council could resolve the
problems associated with zoning. He did not feel that zoning
should not be approved simply because Council feels that the
zoning of certain parcels could not be resolved.
31110 -10
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
Councilman Dickens stated that his problem did not rest
completely with his personal view. One cannot allow personal
views to intrude. For that reason, Councilman Dickens was
prepared to go with a referendum /initiative system to allow
the people of Baytown a voice. The reason he felt this way
was that he had not received one call favoring zoning, but
had received numerous calls in opposition. Therefore, his
thought was that the way to determine exactly what the people
of Baytown wanted was to put the matter to a vote, but failing
that, he did not feel that there was a choice.
Councilman Johnson suggested that Council could hold a
straw vote which would still give the people a chance to
express their view and would give Council some direction.
Councilman Dickens mentioned that that could also be
construed as a misuse of city funds. The City Attorney
clarified this was the reason he had suggested that the straw
vote be held in conjunction with the regularly scheduled
election.
Mayor Cannon pointed out that there would be a problem
with that because it would put those who are up for re- election
in a bad position.
Councilan Philips pointed out that if Council would say
that the issue is for or against zoning, people will say that
they don't know what is meant by that and Council would have
to spend the money to develop a comprehensive zoning plan.
Councilman Johnson said that he too had received many
many calls and that no one had been in favor of zoning. For
this reason, he too had favored holding an election and leaving
it up to the people of Baytown because if zoning passed and
the people didn't like it, they would have no one to'look
to but themselves. Councilman Johnson said that he had not
witnessed any large groundswell to institute zoning in Baytown
and therefore, would favor forgetting the zoning issue completely.
Councilman Fuller said that from the beginning he had taken
no position at all because he wanted to totally explore and get
feedback as much as possible as to the pros and cons of zoning.
He has been studying the issue in an attempt to arrive at some
conclusions. He really feels that Council as representatives
of the people should make a decision pro or con on zoning,
but at the same time it would be nice to know how the people
of Baytown feel. Two other points that need to be made are
that zoning will cost a great amount of money when Council
is concerned with making ends meet this fiscal year. Council
would like to reduce taxes next fiscal year, and if Council
institutues zoning, then it will be necessary to hire more
people. There will be a tremendous increase in work load,
taking the present staff away from some of the more impor-
tant things like the bond program. In addition to that
there is one thing that is being overlooked. Council has
been talking about deed restrictions and the people in the
community which primarily deals with residential. What
Council needs to consider as well is that Baytown is a
viable community that wants to grow and the only way that
Baytown can grow is for new business to come to Baytown.
31110 -11
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
If Council puts any criteria there or any indefiniteness
about what they can do, Council will actually discourage
business and discourage some of the far thinking of
what can be done to expand the community. Council cannot
expand just the residential without expanding the
business and the services along with it. He emphasized
that he would hate to see Council do anything that would
curtail that type activity. He concluded by saying
that he would hope that any new development would include
very good deed restrictions, following the city's codes
and even going beyond the codes. He further stated that
Council should do something by ordinance to deal with
the shortcomings. For those reasons, at this time,
he felt that he could not support zoning.
Councilman Simmons stated that he would make no
further remarks other than those made at the last Council
meeting which definitely indicated his opposition to
zoning.
Joe Lorenz, President of Mollie Knowlton Civic
Association, addressed Council on behalf of himself
and the association. He stated that he was really at
a loss as what to say because the issue being discussed
is an emotional one as far as the people are concerned.
It's not a matter of real estate or commercial development
or residential. It is a matter that impacts the people
who are being affected by a lack of zoning. These people
are people who own homes and who have their lives tied
up in those homes. He continued that he lives on Donovan.
In that subdivision, there are very good deed restrictions
and those restrictions are enforced. If one looks 40
feet to the west, there are warehouses; 40 feet to the east
there is a public housing project, while another 40 feet,
there is Alexander Drive; a little bit north there is a
skating rink. Regardless of how much the deed restrictions
are enforced, there is no control over what goes on
outside the subdivision. Mr. Lorenz said that he understands
the points that were made, that he empathizes with Council
and the fact that Council would have a very difficult
time enforcing a zoning ordinance, but he suggested that
as the City of Baytown expands that the people that move
into the Donovan Street area must be protected.
Councilman Philips responded that he proposed to do that
by going ahead and implementing an agency in Baytown which
would be responsible for enforcing the subdivision covenants.
Mr. Lorenz responded that he understood what Councilman
Philips was saying, but there is no ordinance that would
prevent the warehousing on Beaumont, nor an ordinance that
would keep a bar from being established on Ward at Beaumont.
There are no ordinances to prevent all the commercial develop-
ment around a residential area.
Councilman Philips responded that if one were to take
the warehouse on Beaumont, the man who owns that property
could always ask for a variance if the property were not
zoned commercial to begin with.
31110 -12
Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
Mr. Lorenz responded that what he was asking from Council
is where is the homeowners relief. He stated that Council
is voting to table the issue and by tabling the issue, Council
is saying that Council does not want to vote on it, and he
asked that if Council is opposed to zoning that Council
say that.
Councilman Philips said that he was of the opinion that
is what Council was saying; Councilman Dickens added that he
didn't feel that Council is tabling anything.
Mr. Lorenz inquired of Councilman Dickens how a small
homeowner would be hurt by zoning. Councilman Dickens
responded by stating that businessmen look at any sort of
regulation as a cost to be passed on to the consumer. Zoning
is a cost and that would be passed on. If development is
discouraged by zoning, the tax base is limited which increases
the property taxes for the small homeowner. If deed restrictions
are strengthened or re- enacted, which has been discussed by
Council, this would achieve the same result without these
negative side effects. Mr. Lorenz said that when one is
speaking of commercial or industrial development, one is not
talking about skating rinks, mini warehouses, etc. Councilman
Dickens said that San Jacinto Mall is a perfect example. The
mall, at a time when industry was laying off people, employed
3,000 people. That's not industrial development; that's
commercial. The mall has also increased the tax base. Taxes
had to be increased. If it had not been for the approximate
22% increase in sales tax revenues since the mall was opened,
taxes would have been increased further.
Mr. Lorenz stated that the issue of zoning is dead as
far as Baytown and Council are concerned; therefore, he
requested that existing ordinances be enforced and if necessary,
new ordinances be adopted to better protect the citizens
of Baytown.
Councilman Dickens suggested that the civic association
develop a list of problems and bring those to Council. He
stated that that was the purpose of Council -- to look out
after the good of the people.
Mr. Lorenz stated that his personal opinion is that
zoning is necessary for the City of Baytown, and if one
cannot enact zoning for existing boundaries, then it should
be enacted for future boundaries -to protect the homeowner.
Mayor Cannon inquired how the administration would be
able to enforce all deed restrictions and enforce all the
new ordinances that are being proposed without added costs.
Councilman Philips felt that the costs to maintain deed
restrictions would not equal the costs of zoning.
Councilman Simmons suggested that it would be a simple
matter to enforce deed restrictions. This could be done when
an individual or developer comes in for a building permit.
When the application is made for building permit, that
application can be forwarded to the City Attorney to sign
off on with regard to the deed covenants. The way it is now
the individual signs an affidavit that no subdivision covenants
are being broken. If that affidavit is signed, the building
permit is issued. He felt that it would be very easy for the
legal staff to check this out. The vote follows:

Minutes of the Regular Meeting - November 10, 1983
Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons,
Wilbanks, Fuller and Dickens
Nays: Mayor Cannon
Councilman Philips stated that he would like to see on
the next agenda and continuing there an item which addresses
this need to get on with these ordinances. Mr. Lanham
responded that the Administration could give Council a list
of items that Council may want to consider. Councilman
Philips said he would like attention to be given to
mobile home restrictions, look at these overseas metal
containers, commercial debris, etc. Councilman Fuller
suggested that Council talk about these various possibilities
at the next Council meeting.
Consider Proposed Ordinance, Amending the Code of Ordinances
To Require all Residential Water and /or Sewer Customers to
Maintain City Garbage Service
The ordinance that establishes regulations for garbage
service contains no provisions that that service is available
to each citizen of Baytown and that everyone should pay for
the service. The ordinance provides no exemption, but it
has been the policy that if an individual comes in and
establishes water and sewer, but states that no garbage pickup
is necessary, they are not charged for the service. The
staff has checked the records which reveal that there are
about 300 water accounts that do no pay a garbage charge.
In some cases, these are uninhabited residences; the recom-
mendation is that the proposed change exclude those residences.
The staff verified that about one -third of the 300 accounts
mentioned do put garbage out. These accounts are all located
on established routes which run twice weekly. The operators
are not responsible for checking routes to determine whose
garbage is to be handled. Therefore, the Administration
recommended that the ordinance be amended to be very specific
that the service is available and all citizens of Baytown
will pay for garbage pickup. The change will specify that
each occupied residential unit shall be charged a sum of
$8.00 which shall be collected regardless of whether refuse
is collected from that location. Provision is made for the
owner of an unoccupied residential unit to certify in writing
to the collections office that the unit is unoccupied, and
in those cases, no charge will be made during the time the
residence is unoccupied. There are cases where individuals
put their homes up for sale, but do not disconnect water
service. In those cases, the individual would be charged
the minimum for water and sewer, but would not be charged
the garbage fee. The Administration recommended approval
of the ordinance which is to become effective with the first
billing in November.
Councilman Fuller moved for adoption of the ordinance;
Councilman Johnson seconded the motion. The vote follows:

Consider Request by Johnny Nelms for Sewer Connection at Garth
Road and Interstate 10
Mr. Nelms' request is to tie in to the City of Baytown sewer
main on Garth Road at Interstate 10 East for the purpose of a
new business called Coyboy Country, U.S.A. which business is
to be located east of Barkuloo Road. Mr. Nelms has indicated
that he would be willing to pay the cost of a lift station
and the force main over to the City of Baytown's sewer line,
plus $7,346 connection fee. Since additional customers in that
same area would not be able to tie into a force main, the
ideal thing would be to have a gravity flow line there, but
that would cost a great deal more which difference the city
would have to fund. Normally, a gravity flow line will
cost in the neighborhood of $20 to $25 per foot. There is
about 7,500 feet involved here, but only 21000 feet would
be gravity flow. The lift station and a portion of force
main would still be necessary. As long as the line and lift
station are used solely by Mr. Nelms, the city would not
assume the responsibility for maintenance. If others tie
on and the lift station and lines are constructed according
to City of Baytown specifications, the city will accept the
responsibility of maintenance at such time as the facility
becomes public. Norman Dykes, City Engineer /Director of
Public Works, said that the costs for a gravity flow line
would be too great, but perhaps what could be done is to
take bids for a larger force main and as others wanted to tie
in, the lift station could be enlarged at their expense.
The Administration recommended approval of the request, and
authorization to advertise for bids for the size force main
needed to serve Mr. Nelms and for an oversized force main to
allow those persons who desire to tie into the lift station
in the future that option.
Councilman Fuller moved to approve Mr. Nelms' request
and to authorize the Administration to work with Mr. Nelms
to develop plans and specifications and go out for bids as
recommended, but no work will be authorized until the connection
fee is received. Councilman Philips seconded the motion.
The vote follows:
Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons,
Wilbanks, Fuller and Dickens

Consent Agenda
The Administration requested that Item f, "Consider
Proposed Ordinance, Awarding Contract for Demolition at
214 West Texas," be removed from consideration. The Urban
Rehabilitation Board has indicated that they would like for
this item to be postponed since the property has recently
changed hands and the new owner would like a month to bring
the building up to standard. Council had no objections as
long as the new owner began work on the structure in a
timely fashion.
Council then considered the Consent Agenda Items a
through a as follows:
a. Proposed Ordinance No. 31110 -2, will award the bid
for the annual auto fittings contract. Bids were
mailed to (7) seven vendors of which we received
proposals from four companies. Baytown Oil Sales

SUBJECT: PROCEDURE TO ADOPT ZONl W.2 ORDINANCE
DATE: IJ'iVENSER 8, 1983
The following sucrmary of steps necessary for the adoption of
a zoning ordinance may be helpful to City Council in determining
how to proceed on this issue:
1. City Council appoints a Zoning Commission. There
are no guidelines or limitations on the number of
members, but it is necessary the City Council, as
opposed to any third party, appoint the Zoning
Commission. City Council may, but is not required to,
appoint the existing Planning Commission as the Zoning
Commission.
2. The Zoning Commission prepares a preliminary zoning
plan. This should divide the City into districts,
designate the appropriate uses for each district, and
establish reaulations for the various districts.
3. The Zoning Commission then must hold a public
hearing on the proposal, with at least fifteen (15)
days notice of the hearing being published in the
paper.
4. The Zoning Commission makes any revisions it deems
necessary and prepares a final report, which is
submitted to City Council.
5. Only after receiving the final report from the
Zoning Corrmission may City Council take action. The
City Council must first also hold a public hearing on
the proposed zoning ordinance. (The City Council can,
by ordinance, provide for a joint hearing of the Zoning
Corrmission hearing and its hearing, so it is possible
this step can be combined with step no. 3.)
6. After making such revisions as it deems necessary,
City Council then votes on the Zoning Ordinance.
There -is no provision in the statues for the appointment or
use of any

the question of determining the citizens' desires as
the council has these options:
1) As duly elected representatives of the voters, City
Council may of course adopt a zoning ordinance on its
own (following the procedures outlined above).
2) City Council may submit the proposition to the
voters in the form of a straw vote in order to
determine the feeling of the citizens. If the citizens
supported zoning, City Council would still have to
follow the procedures listed above.
