Ordinances, Chapter 42, "Health and Sanitation," Article III, "Smoking" at
6:00 p.m.
Mayor Alfaro called to order the public hearing concerning the adoption of
a proposed ordinance amending Chapter 42 "Health and Sanitation," Article II
"Smoking," of the Code Of Ordinances of the City of Baytown. He asked that
everyone who desired to speak at this hearing sign the list in the foyer as that list
would provide the speaking order for the hearing. He said that everyone who
wished to speak at this hearing would be given ample opportunity to do so;
however, he did encourage each speaker to be brief and to the point. He stated
that this is not an adversarial -type proceeding but an opportunity for all
interested persons to be heard on the proposed ordinance. He said that any
981210 -2
Minutes of the Regular Session — December 10, 1998
questions should be directed to him, and with the aid of city staff, he would
attempt to respond. He asked the City Manager to summarize the subject of this
hearing.
The ordinance amends the Code of Ordinances to expand the definition of
public place and add various definitions for clarification to enforce that this article
does not excuse noncompliance with other measures, to specify offenses and
add exceptions and to enumerate criteria for smoking areas to be designated in
public places. Notice of this hearing was published in The Baytown Sun on
December 2 and December 9, 1998.
Charles A. Clemens, 5007 Somerset Drive, spoke in opposition to the
proposed amendments. He felt the amendments represent over regulation.
Fred Miccio, 4216 Decker Drive, owner of Baytown Bingo, spoke in
opposition to the proposed amendments because of the negative impact on his
business. He also felt that adoption of the proposed amendments would be over
regulation.
Yvonne Saice, 5900 Memorial, Executive Director of the Greater Houston
Restaurant Association, spoke on behalf of members who own restaurants in
Baytown. They support the establishment of a uniform state standard which
allows smokers and non - smokers to enjoy public facilities without requiring
significant structural and organizational changes. Smokers represent 25% to
30% of a restaurant's customer base. Ms. Saice urged Council to consider the
business owners who are also their constituents and let the market place dictate
what happens, not someone's social agenda.
Russell Ybarra, 5123 Turnberry Court, owner of Gringo's Mexican Kitchen
in LaPorte, and a board member of the Houston Restaurant Association, spoke
in opposition due to economic consequences. He felt the smoking ban would
result in lost revenues to the city.
Rick Elmore, 1401 Coyote, spoke in favor of the proposed change,
because he felt that smoking was inappropriate in an eatery.
Manuel O. Elizondo, 7808 Ware Road, felt that adoption of the proposed
changes would be over regulation.
Bette Efferson, 202 South Main, a small business owner in Baytown,
presented a petition with eighty signatures against the proposed changes. She
felt that business owners should continue to have the right to decide whether to
allow smoking.
981210 -3
Minutes of Regular Session — December 10, 1998
Tom L. Kincaid, 4035 Wright, felt adoption would mean further erosion of
citizens' rights and liberties.
Marquerite "Terri" Mouton, 1201 Parkway, a new restaurant owner in
Baytown, felt that the decision should be left to the business owner and their
customers.
Keith Kilcrease, 104 Queens Court, felt that adoption of the proposed
amendments would eliminate the freedom of choice.
Sharon M. Newberry, Post Office Box 1744, spoke in opposition to the
proposed changes. She felt business owners should have the right to decide.
Becky McCandless, 4115 Mohawk Street, presented a petition in
opposition to the proposed changes. She felt that the proposed ordinance would
take away her choice and noted that just about every eating establishment
allows smoking and non - smoking.
Steve Lusk, 4006 Massey- Tompkins, a restaurant owner, performed a
survey with 84 people against the ban and eight people for it. His customers are
primarily smokers who frequent his establishment to relax. He felt the choice
should be that of the proprietor.
Dr. James Bernick, 800 Post Oak, spoke in favor of the proposed
amendments due to health concerns involving passive smoking.
Shannon Sheppard, American Cancer Society, spoke in favor of the
proposed amendments. She felt that Council's responsibility is to protect the
health of the community.
John J. Isaacks, owner of Bay Vending, felt the proposed ordinance to be
unrealistic and would affect his business adversely.
Joyce Barker, 4829 Highway 146, restaurant owner, presented a petition
in opposition to the proposed ordinance.
Mayor Alfaro recessed the public hearing on the smoking ordinance to call
to order the pubic hearing scheduled for 6:35 p.m.
981210-4
Minutes of Regular Session — December 10, 1998
Hold Public Hearing on the Request of Jill Benbow, Vice President of
Norwood Homes, to Amend the Official Zoning Map of the City of Baytown
to Rezone Property Legally Described as Tract 4B, Abstract 69, out of the
Christian Smith Survey (Bayou Oaks Estate), from Mixed Use to
Neighborhood Conservation at 6:35 p.m.
Mayor Alfaro called to order the public hearing concerning the adoption of
a proposed ordinance amending the Official Zoning Map affecting property
described as Tract 4B, A -69, Bayou Oaks Estate. He asked that everyone who
desired to speak at this hearing sign the list in the foyer as that list would provide
the speaking order for the hearing. He said that everyone who wished to speak
at this hearing would be given ample opportunity to do so; however, he did
encourage each speaker to be brief and to the point. He stated that this is not
an adversarial -type proceeding but an opportunity for all interested persons to be
heard on the proposed ordinance. He said that any questions should be directed
to him, and with the aid of city staff, he would attempt to respond. He asked the
City Manager to summarize the subject of this hearing.
This property was recently annexed into the City and received an
automatic designation of Mixed Use (MU). Norwood Homes plans to construct
seventy -five single - family dwellings at this location, and the Baytown Zoning
Commission recommends the reclassification based on staff analysis that the
request meets the six amendment criteria established in the Zoning Ordinance.

Mr. Huff stated that all the drainage from his property and the other
property south of Tract 4B drains across that tract because it is lower maybe by
ten feet. He said that rather than his property draining to Raccoon Drive and
Cary's Bayou, it runs across Tract 4B. He said that he wanted to be certain that
this drainage was not going to be blocked. He said that there are two natural
ravines that run across that tract for drainage to Cary's Bayou. He wants to be
certain that something is done.
There being no one else registered to speak, Mayor Alfaro closed the
public hearing.

Resume Public Hearing Regarding Proposed Amendments to the Code of
Ordinances, Chapter 42, "Health and Sanitation," Article III, "Smoking"
which began at 6:00 p.m. and recessed at 6:35 p.m.
Mayor Alfaro resumed the public hearing regarding the proposed
ordinance amending the code on smoking.
Julie DeTorre, representing the American Cancer Society, Baytown Unit,
encouraged Council to adopt the proposed amendments. She emphasized that
tobacco is directly responsible for more than twenty -five thousand deaths each
year in Texas. During the recent state lawsuits against the tobacco companies,
evidence has come to light confirming that the tobacco industry has manipulated
and lied to the public about the harmful effects of tobacco. Second -hand smoke
has been classified by the EPA as a group "A" carcinogen putting it in the same
category as asbestos, arsenic, and benzene.
981210 -b
Minutes of Regular Session — December 10, 1998
Laurie Terry, Director at a local health care facility and member of the
American Cancer Society, spoke in favor of strengthening the existing ordinance
to protect the public health. She felt this was a matter of health not personal
rights.
Teressa Rodrigues, President of the American Heart Association, and a
nurse by profession, spoke on behalf of those who would like to have a choice
when they frequent a public facility- -the choice of a smoke free environment.
Regina Quinn, representing the American Heart Association, encouraged
adoption of the proposed amendments to reduce disability and death from
cardiovascular disease and stroke.
Dr. Pamela Medellin, an oncologist, spoke of the numbers exposed to and
affected by second -hand smoke.
Dr. Hugh Williston, 4201 Garth Road, a physician, emphasized that this
country is all about individual choice and individual freedom. The choice needs
to come from the individual, not from the Government.
Sean Gonzales, representing Tortuga's Cantina, stated that his business
is 50% smoking and 50% non - smoking. Therefore, he fears that many of his
customers will begin to frequent establishments outside of Baytown if the
proposed Ordinance is adopted.
Steve Wiley, General Manager of Red Lobster in Baytown, expressed his
concern about the possible loss of the 25% of his customers who smoke.
Joan Heaner spoke in favor of the proposed changes on behalf of those
who cannot tolerate smoke due to asthma or allergies.
Jannie Foreman stated both smokers and non - smokers frequent the
bowling alley and felt the choice should be left to the customers.
Maria Islas, 8 Ashleyville Road, expressed that adoption of the proposed
ordinance would affect her livelihood since she is a bartender.

have to suffer the ill effects of someone else's bad habits?
Dave Pickrell, President and founder of Smokers Fighting Discrimination
in Katy, spoke to the loss of customers and jobs in other cities where smoking
was banned.
981210 -7
Minutes of Regular Session — December 10, 1998

should have the choice of what takes place in their own business.

lose 50% of his business if the ordinance were adopted.
Rick Anderson, Outback Restaurant, stated it is not an issue of smokers
or non - smokers but an issue of being pro- business and pro- restaurant which
Baytown should be right now.
There being no one else registered to speak, Mayor Alfaro closed the
public hearing.

a. Proposed Resolution No. 981210 -2, authorizes City Manager to
accept a grant award from the United State Department of Justice
981210 -11
Minutes of Regular Session — December 10, 1998
in the amount of $99,418 from the Local Law Enforcement Block
Grant Program to assist the City in reducing crime and improving
public safety. The funds may be spent for personnel, overtime, and
equipment but may not supplant budgeted items. This grant is
identical to the two previous grants awarded in 1996 and 1997.
The City must appoint an advisory board to hold a public hearing
and make recommendations for the expenditure of funds. The City
must spend all funds on or before September 30, 2000. Funds for
the City's match of $11,046 will come from the General Fund.
We recommend approval.

accept additional appropriation for a federal grant from the Federal
Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) for Cooperative
agreement in conjunction with the Houston High Density Drug
Trafficking Area Grant Program in the amount of $85,874. The
additional appropriation increases the grant from $531,955 to
$617,829. There are no City funds appropriated for this grant.
We recommend approval.
C. Council will consider this item at a future time.
d. Proposed Ordinance No. 981210 -7, designates the south
intersection of Ferry Road at North Alexander Drive northbound
roadway a yield intersection, controlling northbound Ferry Road.
Ferry Road is a two -way, two -lane collector roadway connecting
North Alexander and Cedar Bayou Road. Based on the high
degree of visibility, the resultant high approach speed, and the lack
of reported accident experience, the Growth Management and
Advisory Commission recommended replacing the existing stop
control with a yield control.
We recommend approval.
e. Proposed Ordinance No. 981210 -8, authorizes the purchase of one
heavy duty telescoping boom mobile hydraulic excavator from Hi-
Way Equipment Company, Inc., in the amount of $225,858.
Invitations to bid were mailed to eight suppliers and we received
two bids and five no -bids. This equipment will be used by the
Streets and Drainage Division of Public Works.
We recommend approval.
981210 -12
Minutes of Regular Session — December 10, 1998
f. Proposed Ordinance No. 981210 -9, authorizes the purchase of one
pesticide sprayer and computer system from CIBOLO
Manufacturing, Inc. in the amount of $48,916. Invitations to bid
were mailed to two suppliers and we received one bid and one no-
bid. This equipment will attach to a truck purchased earlier and will
be used by the Parks and Recreation Department for application of
herbicides /pesticides along rights -of -way. This is the sprayer
discussed with Council during budget work sessions.
We recommend approval.
g. Proposed Ordinance No. 981210 -10, rejects the bid for the annual
sludge disposal contract with GM and Associates in the amount of
$138,144, and awards the rebid to Rustin Transportation in the
amount of $132,480. Invitations to bid were mailed to eight
suppliers and we received five bids. The original bids were
rejected because they were over the budgeted amount of $14.05
per cubic yard. The Rustin Transportation bid is based on $13.80
per cubic yard. This contract is used for the collection, hauling, and
disposal of processed sewage sludge at each of the wastewater
treatment plants.

December 14, 1995, the City Council passed Ordinance No. 7578,
in response to the Legislature's passage SB 60, the "Right to carry"
law allowing licensees to carry concealed handguns. The
Legislature has revisited the concealed handgun issue and has
enacted a statute, which obviates the need for the City's ordinance.
Under the new state law, a concealed handgun licensee commits
an offense if he carries a handgun on property of another without
consent of the owner and has received notice that such act is
forbidden.
We recommend approval.
