990225 -2
Minutes of the Regular Session — February 25, 1999
Proposed Ordinance No. 990225 -1, Amending the Code of Ordinances,
Chapter 42, "Health and Sanitation," Article III, "Smoking" by Adopting one
of the Following Options:
a. All public places are non - smoking; however, a smoking area may be
provided by including a physical barrier with separate air ventilation
system.
Amends the existing ordinance to provide that all public places are
non - smoking; however, a smoking area may be provided by
including a physical barrier with separate air ventilation system. In
addition to the separate air ventilation system and negative
pressure, the HVAC system shall utilize an amount of outside
"mixing" air in accordance with industry codes and standards and
an amount of the return air shall be exhausted to the outside of the
building. This requirement is a design function and would be
determined by the engineers at the time of retrofit or construction.
The Health Department of the City will be responsible for testing of
negative pressure. Since negative pressure must be maintained,
the establishment will not be required to enclose the smoking area
with a door. The requirement for a door created problems with
serving distance, safety issues, and ADA requirements. Anytime a
negative pressure is not present in the smoking area, the whole
facility becomes non - smoking. Each business would determine the
area to be designated as non - smoking and the amount of area to
be designated as smoking. Both sides of that issue were discussed
and all agreed this is a business decision.
b. All public places may be designated completely non - smoking,
completely smoking, or a combination thereof by including a
physical barrier with separate air ventilation system.
Amends the existing ordinance to provide that all public
places are non - smoking; however, an establishment may designate
the building completely non - smoking or completely smoking by
placement of signs at the entrances, or may designate the building
as a combination thereof by meeting the requirements delineated in
Option a.
Council has held one public hearing and several work sessions to receive
input from the community. In an effort to provide options to Council that would
satisfy the concerns expressed by various segments of the community, the staff
met with representatives of the American Cancer Society, the American Heart
Association, and business owners to provide options. Mayor Alfaro recognized
the following persons in accordance with Council procedures.
990225 -3
Minutes of the Regular Session — February 25, 1999
Dave Pickrell, Post Office Box 5472, Katy
Mr. Pickrell represents "Smokers Against Discrimination." He opposed a
more restrictive ordinance on smoking as too much control by government.
Robert Hollis, 4704 Memory Lane
Mr. Hollis opposed the ordinance questioning the accuracy of studies on
second -hand smoke.
Larry Forehand, 1135 Edgebrook, Houston
Mr. Forehand, represents the Restaurant Association. He said the
association had no objection to the ordinance.
Bill Harrison, 400 West Texas Avenue
Mr. Harrison said he agreed with Mr. Forehand.
Joyce Barber, 4829 Highway 146
Ms. Barber agreed with Mr. Forehand.
Luther Haddick, 520 Harding Street
Mr. Haddick said he was opposed to smoking in public areas but that he
was concerned about the cost to businesses of separate facilities.
Bob Mahan, 2800 Jeanetta No. 411, Houston
Mr. Mahan is Executive Director of the Smoking and Tobacco Education
Campaign. He spoke in favor of option 1 a and the dangers of second -hand
smoke. He requested that if Council did compromise on the ordinance that they
allow no more than thirty percent of a restaurant to be smoking and that a time
limit be set on when restaurants must be totally non smoking. He suggested that
restaurants with less than sixty seats should not be permitted a separate
smoking section.
Council Member Almendarez moved to adopt ordinance la with the
addendum that the designated smoking area should not exceed fifty percent of
the seating. Council Member Escontrias seconded the motion.
Council Member Almendarez stated that the issue was a health issue and
a nuisance issue. He said that that Council had been considering this issue for
over two years.
Council Member Escontrias said he thought that people contacted council
members they believed agreed with them. He said that there were already about
130 smoke -free businesses in the Baytown area.
990225 -4
Minutes of the Regular Session — February 25, 1999
Council Member Godwin expressed the hope that the issue would not
cause division in the city.
Mayor Alfaro said that he was a nonsmoker and a believer in limited
government. He stated that while he felt it was necessary to protect the
nonsmoker, he wanted to offer choices. He said that since this ordinance applied
to all public buildings not just restaurants, the owner should be able to designate
the property smoking or nonsmoking and post signs to that effect. He noted that
since 70 to 80 percent of the population are nonsmoking, economics would
require that most places be nonsmoking. He stressed that he wanted to protect
the health of the community and did not want to mix smoking and nonsmoking,
however, he felt it was fundamental to our society for adults to be able to make
choices. The vote follows:
Ayes: Council Members Almendarez,
Escontrias, Hinds, and Godwin
Nays: Council Member Sheley
Mayor Alfaro

Proposed Ordinance No. 990225 -2, Awarding a Contract for Archeological
Consulting Services for the Baytown Nature Center
The ordinance awards the contract to Moore Archeological Consulting,
Inc., in the amount of $18,375. The city was awarded a grant for the
development of the Baytown Nature Center on January 21, 1999. The project
will consist of land acquisition, construction of bicycle /pedestrian trail, picnic
facilities, fishing facilities, birding observations, a freshwater lake, and a butterfly
garden. The $402,200 matching grant requires a Cultural Resources Survey and
clearance from the Texas Historical Commission before the grant contract can be
signed. The scope of the survey will include the entire Baytown Nature Center
project (over 400 acres). Moore Archeological has completed several other
cultural resource surveys for the City of Baytown in the past including the French
Limited Project and the San Jacinto Point area in the Nature Center. Funds will
come from a $2,200 grant from Texas Parks and Wildlife and $16,175 from city
bond funds.
Council Member Escontrias moved to adopt the ordinance. Council

Proposed Ordinance No. 990225 -4, Repealing Authorization to an
Agreement with Geotest Engineering, Inc., and Awarding the Geotechnical
Contract to Fugro - McClelland (Southwest), Inc.
The ordinance awards the contract to Fugro - McClelland in the amount of
$15,200. This repeal is caused by Geotest Engineering's refusal to accept the
City's supplementary conditions for insurance, liability, indemnification, and
responsibility for damages caused by their neglect. The previous
recommendation to approve the agreement was premature because of an
oversight to verify receipt of acceptance of the supplementary conditions. Fugro-
McClelland (Southwest) has agreed to the contract terms and will perform the
same geotechnical work on a time and material basis contract. Funds will come
from 1991 bonds.

Proposed Resolution No. 990225 -1, Approving Amended Guidelines and
Standard Form of Agreement for the Senior /Disabled Citizens Taxi Program
The resolution approves the agreement in the amount of $123,000. The
Senior /Disabled Citizens Taxi Program currently provides eight free one -way
rides per month to eligible senior and disabled citizens. During the budget
process of the Community Development Advisory Board, the Board emphasized
that the budget for this program should not be increased. However, ridership has
increased due to improvements in service and favorable weather conditions;
therefore, without any adjustment to the program, the budget will be over
expended by approximately $31,000. The option proposed will revise the
contract to reduce the benefit to eight one -way rides per month not to exceed
$6.00 per ride. For fares that exceed $6.00, the rider will pay the balance. The
average fare is $8.54. The new program will become effective April 1, 1999. The
Community Development Advisory Committee concurs with this change.
Council Member Escontrias moved to adopt the resolution. Council
Member Hinds seconded the motion.
In response to Council inquiry, Barbara Wooster, Community
Development Planner, explained that if this adjustment were not made, the
Community Development Budget would need to be adjusted in other areas of
public service such as Love, Inc. or the literacy program. Council did not elect to
make adjustments to those programs. The vote follows:

Consent Agenda
Council considered the consent agenda items "a" through 'T"
a. Proposed Resolution No. 990225 -2, authorizes the City Manager to
make application for the Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block
Grant Program. The City of Baytown has been invited to apply for
grant funds to aid in the reduction of juvenile crime. The City is
eligible for $33,459 with a ten- percent cash match of $3,718 for a
total project budget of $37,376. These funds would provide
Municipal Court with alternative sentencing for juveniles. A
Juvenile Crime Enforcement Coalition (JCEC) must be appointed
as provided in Item 9 to recommend a program for expenditure of
the funds. The proposal to the JCEC will require juveniles to
complete a six -hour program divided into two three -hour sessions.
One session would require the juvenile and parent or guardian to
attend a three -hour session in the Municipal Court on a Saturday
morning. This session could utilize speakers, videos on juvenile
crime, and require testing on material that was presented.
Juveniles could be required to write short essays on the
consequences of their actions. The other three -hour session would
require the juveniles to dress in an orange - colored vest and pick up
trash, paint over graffiti, clean vacant lots, etc. All activities would
be closely supervised. All funds must be expended by August 1,
2000.
We recommend approval.

change order represents a 0.4 percent cost reduction. The contract
duration was revised to add thirteen days during the Christmas
holidays for a total of 193 calendar days and the contractor
completed the project in 193 calendar days.
We recommend approval.

Control and Adoption Center. The contract award amount was
$487,159 and the final contract amount is $507,094 representing a
4.1 percent cost growth. The cost growth was largely due to the
addition of a firewall, an added front porch, and a back flow
preventer, and the revision of the lift station electrical panel. The
contract original duration was 180 calendar days and the work was
completed in 282 calendar days. Funds were from 1991 bonds.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Since the initiation of its bankruptcy
proceeding, Fine Organics sold substantially all of its assets to
West Bay Organics, L.C., for a total purchase price of $1,475,000.
Thereafter, the bankruptcy trustee filed a motion requesting the
court, in essence, to determine the value of the property for ad
valorem purposes and to disallow the City's claim. This ordinance
authorizes the City to accept $21,742.38 to fully compromise and
settle all amounts owed by Fine Organics Corporation to the City of
Baytown.
We recommend approval.

City Manager's Report
Petition Regarding Truck Traffic
The petition was filed with the city clerk on February 19, 1999. The
administration is working on revisions to Chapter 94 Traffic Vehicles of the Code
of Ordinances of the City of Baytown. These revisions do address many of the
issues in the petition such as truck routes and overnight parking. The Police
Department has officers trained in the TxDOT program. They are currently
unable to work on safety standards because of personnel constraints, but in early
April there will be adequate staff to begin pursuing the program. The proposed
revisions are being reviewed by staff for presentation to the Growth Management
Development Advisory Commission in March to present to Council in April.
Baytown 2020 Comprehensive Plan
The public forum will be on March 15, 1999, at the Civic Center. The Plan
Process will be a twelve -month process.
Landscaping Ordinance
The landscaping ordinance was passed in July of 1998. We are
considering the possibility of removing the grandfather clause. Legal council
considers that "a taking" and advises not to pursue at this time.
