Philips Jimmy Johnson Perry M. Simmons Ron Embry Gerald Dickens Emmett 0. Hutto Fritz Lanham Larry Patterson Randy Strong Eileen P. Hall Absent: Roy L. Fuller Councilman Councilman Councilman Councilman Councilman Mayor City Manager Assistant City Manager City Attorney City Clerk Councilman The meeting was called to order with a quorum present. The invocation was offered by Councilman Embry, afterwhich the following - business was transacted: Consider Minutes for the Regular Meeting Held September 12, 1985 Councilman Philips moved to approve the minutes for the regular meeting held on September 12, 1985; Councilman John- son seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None Receive Petitions No petitions were received. Consider Proposed Ordinance, Adopting the City of Baytown 1985/86 Budget Prior to consideration of the proposed budget for 1985/86, Mayor Hutto suggested that in as much as the Clean City Commission at one time was under the revenue sharing program budget, that council at this time keep the program intact by budgeting the $20,000 in the Parks and Recreation Budget and the remaining $38,000 or so out of revenue sharing for 1985/86 only. At some point in the future, council will 50926 -2 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 go to the citizens of the City of Baytown for input on the programs that are now being funded through revenue sharing. He asked for input from Council regarding his suggestion. Council agreed with the mayor's proposal, but emphasized that the monies allocated to the Clean City Commission should be expended equitably throughout the city, that more emphasis should be placed on enforcement, and that the proposal only included placing the Clean City Commission under revenue sharing for another year. At that time, a decision will have to be made with regard to funding of that program, along with other programs which continuation of said programs would necessitate a tax increase. Fritz Lanham, City Manager, explained that the proposed ordinance provides for a total budgetary increase over the current year of $77,455 or .24 %. The city manager and his staff had submitted a proposed budget to council recommending expenditures of more than $33,366,000. Council spent many sessions reviewing those recommendations, felt that they did not wish to increase taxes; and therefore, directed that the proposed ordinance be prepared that would reflect no increase in taxes and a reduction in the expenditure portion of the budget of more than $1,200,000. The general fund which includes fire, police, streets, drainage, library and many other smaller city departments is reduced 3.44% below current year. In solid waste fund, the reduction is 2.36% below current year while the water fund increased 1.25 %. Interest and sinking fund from which bond interest and principal is paid increased significantly because bonds were sold last year to finance capital improvements that are underway. The increase there is 19.43 %. Once bonds are sold, the city is obligated legally to have a tax rate to yield the necessary funds to cover this indebtedness. Waterworks Sanitary Sewer Interest and Sinking Fund decreased .32 %. Grand total of all funds increased by .24 %. The proposed ordinance is based on those reductions and increases. Mr. Lanham pointed out that the cuts that have been recommended for the most part have been in capital outlay. The largest cut came from Streets and Drainage where over $400,000 was cut. The administration recommended approval of the ordinance. Councilman Simmons moved for adoption; Councilman Embry seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None 50926 -3 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 ORDINANCE NO. 4267 AN ORDINANCE ADOPTING A BUDGET FOR THE ENSUING FISCAL YEAR, BEGINNING OCTOBER 11 1985, AND ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 1986, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CHARTER AND ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF BAYTOWN AND PROVIDING FOR THE PUBLICATION OF THIS ORDIN- ANCE. Councilman Philips pointed out that this budget year had been the very toughest of the six years that he has served on council. The council was dedicated to keeping the tax rate at $ .59 which required some very hard decisions. Mayor Hutto commended the city manager and his staff for their professionalism and dedication in working with council to effect the necessary budgetary restraints. Consider Proposed Ordinance, Fixing the Tax Rate and Tax Levy for Debt Service for the City for the Fiscal Year Ending September 30, 1986 Mr. Lanham stated that the tax statement that people receive will reflect a tax rate of $ .59; however, it is necessary to break that tax rate down between the amount required for payment of debt service and that required for general fund maintenance and operation. The first ordinance will provide that $ .1979 of the tax rate be allocated toward debt service which will produce $3,288,098 in revenue. The administration recommended approval of the ordinance. Councilman Philips moved to adopt the proposed ordinance; Councilman Embry seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None ORDINANCE NO. 4268 AN ORDINANCE FIXING THE RATE AND TAX LEVY FOR DEBT SERVICE FOR THE CITY OF BAYTOWN FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 1986, UPON ALL TAXABLE PROPERTY IN SAID CITY OF BAYTOWN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS AND THE CHARTER PROVISIONS AND ORDINANCES OF SAID CITY; AND REPEALING ALL ORDINANCES OR PARTS OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT THEREWITH. Consider Proposed Ordinance, Fixing the Tax Rate and Tax Levy for General Fund Maintenance and Operation for The City for the Fiscal Year Ending September 30, 1986 For general fund maintenance and operation, $ .3921 is allocated which will produce $6,514,244 in revenue. The total tax revenue that will be generated by the $ .59 is $9,802,342. The adminisration recommended approval of the ordinance. 50926 -4 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - Sept. 26, 1985 Councilman Embry moved for adoption of the ordinance; Councilman Johnson seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None ORDINANCE NO. 4269 AN ORDINANCE FIXING THE RATE AND TAX LEVY FOR GENERAL FUND MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION FOR THE CITY OF BAYTOWN FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 1986, UPON ALL TAXABLE PROPERTY IN SAID CITY OF BAYTOWN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS AND THE CHARTER PROVISIONS AND ORDINANCES OF SAID CITY; AND REPEALING ALL ORDINANCES OR PARTS OF ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT THEREWITH. Consider Approving the Baytown Area Water Authority Budget for 1985/86 The proposed Baytown Area Water Authority Budget has been considered and approved by the authority board, but the act that established BAWA requires council approval as well. The total proposed budget is $3,915.564. The adminis- tration recommended approval of the proposed budget. Councilman Johnson moved to adopt the Baytown Area Water Authority Budget for 1985/86; Councilman Simmons seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry, and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None Reba Eichelberger Recognized by Mayor Hutto Ms. Eichelberger asked if the floor was open for discussion concerning the City of Baytown Budget for 1985/86. Mayor Hutto responded that the budget had been adopted, but Ms. Eichelberger was free to make a statement. In response to Ms. Eichelberger's query concerning budgeted funds, Mr. Lanham stated that city council has the authority to reallocate funds at anytime during the year. The $60,000 for the first phase of the study had originally been appropriated for Brownwood, but was not spent and was therefore, reallocated. 50926 -5 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 The city attorney responded to Ms. Eichelberger's inquiry concerning remuneration for reconstruction, relo- cation and removal of signs by stating that the sign ordinance does not require relocation or removal, but requires reha- bilitation of the sign when in a state of disrepair. In response to Ms. Eichelberger concerning legal fees, the current budget has an allocation of $25,000 under special services which includes monies for legal fees; however, if these funds are not sufficient to cover legal fees, the money will be allocated from contingency. The 1985/86 budget allocates $160,000 in special services however, not all the money in this category is to be used for legal fees. The administration was unable to respond specifically to the amount expended toward legal fees at the council meeting, but Ms. Eichelberger can get that information during regular business hours. Bavtown Police Association Revresetative Officer Paul Martin with the Baytown Police Association expressed the association's disappointment with the 2% increase in salary. Baytown has one of the three largest law enforcement agencies in Harris County, but its officers make less salary than cities of lesser size with smaller police departments. The association is not asking that Baytown be the highest paid in Harris County, but that the officers receive above average pay to attract qualified personnel. In the salary survey conducted by the association of other entities, the average first year's salary for officers was $1,842 per month. That figure is $164 more than the current entry level salary for officers in Baytown. If council had granted the 7% increase requested, that would only make the beginning salary $1,796, about a $118 increase. The reason the association requested the 7% increase is that they were trying to retrieve the 3.5% lost as a result of hurricane Alicia during the 1983/84 budget year. The officers need an increase to provide the income necessary so that their actual need to work extra jobs or overtime is not required to make ends meet. Also, the higher salaries will help to retain trained personnel. Presently, there are 18 officers who are seeking employment elsewhere indicating salary as the main reason, and word has been received from Pasadena that they have opened their lateral entry program for officers with minimum three years experience. These officers will be starting at a salary of $2,006 a month which is $328 higher than Baytown's entry level officer's salary. In addition to the $2,006 a month, they do have 7% retirement, a team policing project and a four -day work week. Officer Martin also mentioned vacancies in patrol division of the department, along with absences due to training, vacations and holidays which reduces the effec- tiveness of patrol division by 25 %. 50926 -6 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 He suggested that prior to bringing in a consultant to study the salary structure, that a committee be formed with the personnel director as chairman and representatives from each of the major departments of the city to discuss various possibilities that would be feasible for both city employees and the City of Baytown. Officer Martin ended his presentation by stating that the Baytown Police Association is asking for council's help in retaining officers to better serve the citizens of Baytown. Council will take this matter under advisement. Arthur Morgan Will Appear Mr. Morgan was interested in discussing further the clerical errors made by a Baytown police officer when issuing a citation to Mr. Morgan at the scene of a traffic accident. Mr. Morgan feels that the officer should resign because of the errors. Council had acted on this matter within the last six months, and no one on council expressed the desire to continue the matter further. Roxanne Gillum Recognized Ms. Gillum spoke in support of a pay increase for Baytown Police officers. Consider Proposed Ordinance, Amending the Code of Ordinances to Increase Fees for Solid Waste' Collection Service Adoption of the proposed ordinance will change the fee structure from $8.00 per month for city refuse collection to $9.00 per month, and $5.25 per month for city refuse collection for senior citizens to $6.25 per month. The administration recommended approval of the ordinance. Councilman Simmons moved for adoption of the ordinance; Councilman Philips seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None ORDINANCE No. 4270 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 14, "GARBAGE, TRASH, AND BRUSH," OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF BAYTOWN REQUIRING THE CHARGE FOR COLLECTION FOR ALL RESIDENTIAL UNITS; PROVIDING A REPEALING CLAUSE; CONTAINING A SAVINGS CLAUSE; AND PROVIDING FOR THE PUBLICATION AND EFFECTIVE DATE HEREOF. ig 50926 -7 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 Reverend Nathaniel Davis Recognized Councilman Dickens, thinking that it was his time to be responsible for the invocation, had invited Reverend Nathaniel Davis of the Mont Rose Baptist Church to give the invocation. Since he was mistaken and Councilman Embry had offered the invocation, council requested that Reverend Davis close the proceedings. Consider Proposed Ordinance, Amending Buffer Fencing Requirements with Regard to Density and Quality Based on complaints regarding the construction of duplexes adjacent to an existing neighborhood without buffer fencing, council had requested that an ordinance be drafted requiring buffer fencing based on density. The present buffer fence ordinance requires that if the structure is anything other than one or two family living units, a buffer fence must be constructed. Since these were duplexes, no buffer fence was required; however, if one looks at the various regulations of the city, there are single family homes that may be placed on denser lot requirements than duplexes. Therefore, to draft an ordinance on density will not solve the problems. Duplexes require at least 6,000 square feet of property whereas a single family home can have as little as 5,400 square feet. To use that route will not address the problem. There is another problem in requiring that buffer fencing be constructed for every duplex. Conceivably, there could be a duplex surrounded by single family residences, and those people may not like to have a six foot fence constructed adjacent to them. Councilman Johnson pointed out that one could always request a variance. Councilman Philips stressed that he would like to see the quality of the fence adressed. The city attorney responded that the current ordinance requires an opaque fence and that it be maintained. Councilman Philips stated that the call that he had received had to do with a fence that was not put in properly and made of poor quality material so as to detract from the neighborhood. The city attorney responded that it would be necessary for someone with some expertise on erecting fences to determine what is good quality and poor quality. Mayor Hutto mentioned that the reason that the need for the ordinance has been rectified; therefore, he suggested that the administration be given.the opportunity to give more thought to the ordinance, and in the meanwhile council could give the staff some input. Councilman Philips concurred and asked that the staff address workmanlike construction when the ordinance is drafted. 50926 -8 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 Consider Proposed Ordinance, Renewing Insurance Contract with Texas Municipal League Trust F'uhd'''' Larry Patterson, Assistant City Manager, explained that adoption of the proposed ordinance would pose no increase in the city's gross rates. It will maintain the present contractural agreement with Texas Municipal League Trust Fund. There are some minor plan changes which include the addition of a second surgical opinion, optional Hospice care and home health service care. Other than those changes, the plan remains the same, and the administration recommended approval of the ordinance. Councilman Dickens moved to adopt the ordinance; Councilman Philips seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None ORDINANCE NO. 4271 AN ORDINANCE EXPRESSING THE DESIRE OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO CONTINUE ITS PRESENT GROUP POLICY WITH TEXAS MUNICIPAL LEAGUE INSURANCE TRUST FUND FOR MAJOR MEDICAL BENEFITS, BASIC MEDICAL BENEFITS, AND DENTAL BENEFITS FOR THE CITY OF BAYTOWN EMPLOYEES; DIRECTING PAYMENT OF PREMIUMS; AND PROVIDING FOR THE EFFECTIVE DATE. Consider Proposed Resolution, Authorizing the City Manager to Apply for a Grant Under the Justice Assistance Act to Renovate a Portion of Old Post Office Building One of the agencies that is to be moved to the old post office building is the crime prevention unit of the police department. There is the possibility of a one time grant being available through the Criminal Justice Agency for use to renovate the first floor of the building. Several years ago, when a portion of the post office was moved into the federal building, the offices were torn out to provide space for handling mail. What is there now is not suitable for offices for the crime prevention unit. The local match if these funds are received would be in kind. The administration recommended approval of the resolution. Councilman Simmons moved to adopt the resolution; Councilman Johnson seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None 50926 -9 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 RESOLUTION NO. 921 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER OF THE CITY OF BAYTOWN TO MAKE APPLICATION FOR A JUSTICE ASSISTANCE ACT GRANT FOR THE RENOVATION OF THE OLD POST OFFICE BUILDING AND PROVIDING FOR THE EFFECTIVE DATE HEREOF. Consider Approval of Median Enlargement on Baker Road for Willow Creek Shopping Center The Baytown Traffic Commission has recommended approval of a median enlargement on Baker Road for Willow Creek Shopping Center. This is a problem area that council members have mentioned in the past with people traveling against the traffic flow to turn into the shopping center. The owner of the shopping center has made the request for the enlargement and understands that the cost to accomplish the enlargement is to be borne by the owner of the shopping center. The administration recommended approval of the request for median enlargement. Councilman Philips moved to accept the recommendation of the administration; Councilman Embry seconded the motion. The vote follows: Ayes: Council members Philips, Johnson, Simmons, Embry and Dickens Mayor Hutto Nays: None Consent Agenda Mr. Lanham clarified that at the time the preface was forwarded to council, bids for the Baytown Area Water Authority ground storage tank had not been received. Since that time, eight bids have been received which ranged from a high of $707,822 to a low of $568,000. Tank Builders, Inc. is the low bidder, and is the contractor that built the three existing ground storage tanks. The BAWA Board has approved awarding the contract to Tank Builders, Inc. subject to council approval. The administration recommended approval. U.S. Steel was contacted in this regard, and the con- tractor has indicated that he feels that a domestic supplier will be furnishing the material for the tank; however, he did not indicate which supplier. On the subject of the overhead storage tank, the city manager has contacted U.S. Steel to make them aware that bids will be received on that. Concerning Item 1, awarding bid for water tower truck, the administration is recommending rejection of those bids because in the specifications was included the requirement for a steel tower boom. After bids were received, it was noted that only one company could meet that specification; therefore, the administration is recommending that all bids be rejected and the item be rebid. 50926 -10 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 Councilman Philips had some questions concerning the fiberglass fuel pump and asked that more information be included on bid items in the preface. Council considered the remainder of the consent agenda as follows: a. Proposed Ordinance No. 50926 -7, will approve payment of $6,356 to the State Department of Highways and Public Transportation for utility adjustments at SH 146 and Loop 201. Enclosed in the agenda packet is a letter from David Peeples, Jr., Resident Engineer, District 12, of the State Highway Department, requesting payment for three junction boxes constructed by their contractor at places where their storm dranage pipe conflicted with our water and sewer lines. Per utility joint use between the city and the highway department dated October October 25, 1984, the city agreed to relocate or adjust water and sewer lines where they conflicted with proposed highway department drainage pipes. In these three cases it was more economical to have the State's contractor construct a junction box enclosing our utility line within the storm drain system than for our utility line to be rerouted around the State's storm drainage system. The total cost for the three junction boxes was $6,356. We recommend final payment be made the the State Department of Highways and Public Transportation for utility adjustments for $6,356. b. Proposed Ordinance No. 50926 -8, will authorize final payment on the Massey Tompkins curve straighten- ing.

The final cost of all work completed totals $417,868.92. The overrun of $7,758.42 was due to installing some additional 12 inch water line to complete the 12 inch water connection to the future elevated water tank. Funds are available in the 1981 Capital Improvements Program Street Bond account. Previous payments on the contract amount to $337,790.58, leaving a balance due for final payment of $80,078.34.

(Proposed Ordinance No. 50926 -17) 50926 -15 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 Citv Manaaer's Report Drainage - With one or two exceptions, all of the projects that council approved for the 1984/85 fiscal year have been completed. Crews are presently working on Middle- ton, and that project is about 75% complete. The effort through the years to appropriate money and provide the manpower to perform the work is paying off, resulting in fewer drainage projects to be listed. Tenth Street Park /Detention Pond - The earth work has been completed, and the contractor has moved from the site. The grass has begun to grow, and the fences are being con- structed around the ball diamonds. 48" Outfall Pipe to Drain Tenth Street Park /Detention Pond - Angel Brothers is the contractor on this project, and unless there is some bad weather, this project will be completed next week. East District Sanitary Sewer Work - There are two contracts in progress on the East District. On the work on the lift station, the wet well is in place, and the retaining wall has been installed. The contractor is waiting for pump drawings in order to complete the concrete work. The second part of the work is for the relief sewer and dis- charge force main. The contractor has installed 640 feet of 15 inch pipe and 730 feet of force main pipe. Texas Municipal League Conference - Ms. Hall has forwarded to each council member registration forms for the Texas Municipal League Conference asking council to complete the forms and return them in order to get council registered. Edmond Townsend Recognized Mr. Townsend expressed concern with the excavation of a large hole between Mabry and Cedar Bayou Road which is a detraction from the neighborhood, a mesquito breeding area and a hazard in general. Mr. Townsend said that presently there seems to be a question concerning what is to happen with the excavated area once the contractor has completed the work in progress there. Mr. Lanham stated that Norman Dykes, City Engineer /Director of Public Works has been visiting with the contractor who has been conducting the work about the possibility of their constructing that in such a way that the excavated area could become a detention pond with sloped sides. If the area is constructed in accordance with city standards for a detention pond, the adminsitration would recommend to council that it be accepted because it could be used to the city's and property owners' benefit to drain water. That area, including Cedar Bayou Road does not drain well. 50926 -16 Minutes of the Regular Meeting - September 26, 1985 There is an ordinance presently on the books that requires that the area be fenced, but there is no specific time listed as to when the area must be fenced. However, the city attorney said that if council so desired the city could adopt an ordinance requiring anyone doing that sort of work to fence the property line. Councilman Dickens asked if there was any opposition to doing that, and Council- man Philips suggested that council go one step further and talk about a slope. If the area is close to a public road, council certainly would have some concern about sloughing or the road slipping into the ditch. Mayor Hutto suggested that council ask the administration to come back to council with an ordinance or recommendation to cover this situation. Former Mayor, Allen Cannon challenged the city to nego- tiate with the state highway department to get a detention pond. The state will have a huge storm sewer right in that area and the state probably has the necessary right of way. Mayor Hutto responded that it is his understanding that the contractor is negotiating with the highway department to do that very thing. Mr. Lanham said that the administration will get with the contractor on this problem. Recess Into Executive Session to Discuss Pending Litigation Mayor Hutto recessed the open meeting into executive session to discuss pending litigation. When the open meeting reconvened, the mayor announced that there was no action necessary as a result of the executive session. Closing Prayer and Adjournment Reverend Davis offered a closing prayer. There being no further business to be transacted, the meeting was adjourned. Eileen P.
