That bids be received at 11 a.m., Tuesday, July 1, 1975 for three-year contracts to operate the Massey Street Police Car Pound and to pick up abandoned vehicles. Under the Massey Street Car Pound contract, the bidder will state how much the City will pay to operate the pound. If the income from towing and storage exceeds the costs of operating the Pound for any 3 -month period, the City reserves the right to re -negotiate the amount of annual payments. The abandoned car contract will require the bidders to pay the City for each car towed to his pound. The con- tractor will receive the money from the sale of vehicles or towing and storage fees if the car is reclaimed. The towing fees allowed under both contracts will be $10.00 for a normal tow and an additional $10.00 for reasonable additional labor necessary to tow a vehicle provided that such additional labor is itemized. In no case, will the fee charged exceed $20.00. The storage fee will be a $1.00 per day. n.

The existing ordinance only allows a charge of $10.00 plus $5.00 where a dolly is used.

Mayor Luby called for petitions or information from the audience. Judge Mike Westergreen appeared and presented a proposal to the Council for establishment of a night magistrate system in Corpus Christi. He stated a night magistrate is needed to handle such matters as search warrants, arrest warrants and emergency commitments for mentally disturbed persons on nights and weekends. He explained that until recently such police actions were handled after regular hours by any magistrate officer which could be located and at the present time, a voluntary system has been arranged by two municipal judges and three justices of the peace but has not been determined if this sytem will work. He explained the difficulty in locating a magistrate for a warrant, stating the delay could prevent arrests in some cases and make prosecution difficult or impossible in cases where officers act without proper authority. He explained that the State grant would require increasing the local participation over a three-year grant period and at the end of the three years, the City would have to decide whether to continue the program with full local financing. He stated that all he was asking was that the Council indicate an interest in the proposal so the Coastal Bend Council of Governments could consider it for funding through the State Criminal Justice Council. Minutes Regular Council Meeting June 4, 1975 Page 9 Assistant District Attorney Grant Jones joined Judge Westergren in the proposal on behalf of District Attorney William Mobley who was prevented from attending this meeting. Mr. Jones commented that crime does not cease at five p.m. or on weekends, and an available magistrate could help both the police and the prosecutors. Motion by Tipton, seconded by de Ases and passed, that the staff be authorized to file an "interest statement of information" with the Coastal Bend Council of Governments. Mr. Jesse D. Hall, 4530 Green Grove, appeared relative to a matter which was presented to the Council on May 28, by Mr. Jack Pedigo, attorney representing Mr. Hall who had been arrested for speeding on January 10, 1975. Mr, Hall challenged a statement allegedly made by City Manager Townsend on a local television station regarding the incident. Mr. Townsend explained that his statement was made in accordance with what the report had indicated and that was that the officers glasses were found 24 feet from the edge of the pavement from where the arrest was made which indicated that the glasses were knocked there. He explained that this matter has been carefully investigated and indications are that there was some kind of provacation which changed a relatively routine arrest for speeding into something more complex. Regarding Mr. Hall's complaint that the tape made of the incident had been erased, Mr. Townsend stated there had not been a tape made other than the one routinely used by the officer making a backup call. He stated that there appears to be conflicting statements being made, and he finds no basis in the report of improper action on the part of the officers. Mr. Hall stated he is willing to take a lie detector test providing the arresting officer will also take the test "to find out who is telling the truth". He asked for a copy of the report and City Manager Townsend stated he would discuss this with the Chief of Police and will contact Mr. Hall. Commissioner de Ases stated that Mr. Hall has the right to file his complaint in the County Attorney's office and that is where it should be rather than to the City Council. There being no further business to come before the Council, motion by Lozano, seconded by Gulley and passed, that the meeting be adjourned at 3:35 p.m., Wednesday, June 4, 1975, after which City Manager Townsend presented background information and the present status of Choke Canyon Dam.
