Mayor Luby then announced the recessed public hearing on Central Power &
Light Company's request for a rate increase. He explained that the hearing, which
was originally -opened on October 21, was recessed from last week until today to
allow the Staff and City Council time to gain the benefit of the hearing held at
Sinton High School last night.
(A full transcript of the public hearing is on file in the City Attorney's
office.)
City Manager Townsend advised that the recommendation of the City's consultants --
based on the absence of allocation information provided for Corpus Christi by itself --
be considered to be sufficient for the Council to consider denying the request on
that basis and not addressing the merits of what the systemwide increase might be.

He said such information has been requested from CP&L on three separate occasions,
and the Staff feels the City responsible for the regulation has that right. He
distributed data relative to the requested increase, including the consultants'
review and recommendation.
Mr. S. E. Kelley, District Manager for CP&L, addressed the Council that they
have supplied all data relative to their request except information on allocations,
which he said has been discussed but there are considerable legal questions
surrounding it.
Attorney Bill Woolsey, representing CP&L, elaborated on the requirement of
city-by-city allocation, saying he feels a reasonable determination as to the
company's rate base, investment, expenses and rate of return could be made from
the systemwide information gathered coupled with other information he named which
he said CP&L has supplied to the Council. He said if no action is taken by the
Council prior to December 27, the company would not put into effect their full
requested rates, but would put into effect the rates approved by the Public Utility
Commission at the earliest possible time since the Commission would have determined
a reasonable rate of return systemwide.
Discussion concerning payment of the consultants' fees followed, with Attorney
Woolsey explaining how CP&L would add the fees into their cost of services and
hopes to be allowed to regain that expense in one year.
City Manager Townsend summed up that the Staff recommends denial of the
increase for failure to comply with Section 23 of the Public Utility Regulatory Act.
Motion by Gulley to deny CP&L's rate increase because they failed to provide
the data and information necessary to make a reasonable determination and analysis
of rate base, investment, expenses and rate of return on a city-by-city basis under
Section 23, and that the company be required to fully reimburse the City for the
consultants' fees; seconded by Tipton and passed unanimously.
Motion by Sample that the hearing be closed; seconded by Gulley and passed
unanimously.
Mayor Luby recessed the meeting at 3:15 p.m.

The Regular Council Meeting was resumed at 4:55 p.m. with the City Manager's
Report. City Manager Townsend presented the following items, with related comments
and explanations:
a. Recommendation that bids be received at 11:00 a.m., Tuesday, January 11, ,
1977 for 32 one-way, 3 section, 8 -inch traffic signals and 10 one-way,
3 section, 12 -inch traffic signals. The signals will replace obsolete
four-way signals to increase safety and driver observance. Intersections
to be improved include Ayers and Tarlton, Ayers and Blevins, Ayers and
Brownlee, McArdle and Carroll Lane, Waldron Road and South Padre Island
Drive, and Old Brownsville Road and South Padre Island Drive.
b. Recommendation that bid award on the printing, collating and assembly of
500 City Zoning Map Books be made to MESLOH REPRODUCTION & SUPPLY on the
basis of low bid of $6,325. Bids were received from three firms. The
books are sold to the public and various City operations at a price
sufficient to cover the cost of production.
c. Recommendation that a contract be awarded to FIRE X CORPORATION, Bellevue,
Washington, for one 1,000 gallon foam crash fire rescue vehicle for the
Airport on the basis of low bid of $103,650. Ninety percent will be paid
by the Federal Aviation Administration and ten percent from the Airport
Bond Fund. There are currently three fire rescue vehicles at the Airport.
One is a 1951 Fire Department pumper which will not meet F.A.A. discharge
or response requirements. Bids were received from 3 firms.

d. Recommendation that bid award for 1976-77 requirements of tires and tubes
be made to the following firms on the basis of low bid meeting specifications:
GOODYEAR SERVICE STORES, Corpus Christi
Lot I 250 Police Pursuit special fabric radial tires $11,167.10
Lot II - 1,452 tires and 842 tubes, various sizes, passenger $46,388.69
and light commercial Total $57,555.79
GENERAL TIRE SERVICE, Corpus Christi
Lot III - 735 tires and 1,262 tubes, various sizes, truck and $72,011.81
trailer
STRAUSS-FRANK COMPANY, San Antonio
Lot IV - 100 tires and 94 tubes, various sizes, farm and $ 4,872.96
industrial
Lot V - 91 tires and 120 tubes, various sizes, off road and $13 548.09
heavy equipment
Total $18,421.05
GRAND TOTAL $147,988.65
The apparent low bid of $10,105 submitted by B. F. Goodrich of Corpus Christi
on Lot I does not meet specifications because the tires are not listed as
approved on the Federal Qualified Products List of the General Services
Administration because they did not pass a high-speed endurance test. The
apparent low bid on Lot II by Strauss -Frank Company of San Antonio of
$46,371.21 does not meet specifications that they be blackwalls. Since
the difference between this bid and the recommended bid is only $17.48, it
is recommended that the blackwalls be purchased to match existing stock.
Bids were received from five firms. Price comparison shows an increase of
approximately 3.15%.
e. Recommendation that the City's vote for trustees for the Texas Municipal
League Workmen's Compensation Joint Insurance Fund for a term to expire
on December 31, 1978, be cast for the three nominees recommended by the
present Board and who are now serving interim appointments as follows:
Mr. Abe Allen, Councilman, Abilene
Ms. Juanita. Brodecky, Mayor, Rio Hondo
Mr. Don Cheatham, City Attorney, Amarillo.
f. Recommendation that Atlantic Richfield be granted a permit to drill State
Nueces Bay Tract ABC Unit, Well #1 with a surface location on land, outside
of the City limits and'a bottom hole location in State Tract C, Nueces Bay,
inside the City limits. The well is to be drilled to a depth of 12,500'.
Atlantic Richfield has complied with all requirements of the Bay Drilling
Ordinance.
Recommendation that parking be prohibited at all times on the west side of
Golla Avenue from where it intersects with Up River Road south for a distance
of 250 feet. Such parking restrictions will minimize traffic congestion
created by persons by parked cars and traffic related to industry in the
area. Parking is prohibited at all times on the east side of Golla Avenue.
The Traffic Safety Advisory Board so recommends.

Department of Highways and Public Transportation, and the Texas Mexican
Railway Company for lowering the railroad tracks at Kostoryz and Holly Roads
as part of the Kostoryz Road, Padre Island Drive to Holly, street improvements

the MH -MR Community Center to provide services for persons being discharged
from state hospital and state school facilities. The Department of Public
Welfare will reimburse approximately 86% of personnel and administrative

1977.
k. Recommendation that Mr. Richard Sanchez, R.N., be authorized to attend the
University of Texas School of Nursing in San Antonio for a four-month course

by the City in addition to full pay while Mr. Sanchez attends this course.
Mr. Sanchez has agreed to remain with the City for at least four years after
completion of this training. Should he resign from City employment prior
to that time, he will be required to reimburse the City at 255 of the cost
of his salary and tuition for this four-month period for each year of service
not completed.
1. Recommendation that an ordinance be passed regulating all swimming pools
other than at private residences. It would provide the following:
1. Turbidity, disinfectant, pH and bacterial quality standards.
2. Water quality standards when the pool is not in use unless it is covered.
3. An elevated lifeguard platform or chair for pools having a water
surface area of more than 2,250 sq. ft. Additional elevated chairs
would be required for pools with a water surface area of more than
4,000 sq. ft., as needed, to provide a clear, unobstructed view of
the pool bottom.
4. One unit of lifesaving equipment for each 2,000 sq. ft. of water surface
area or major fraction thereof. The unit would consist of a ring buoy
and a life pole or shepherd's crook. In addition, a first aid kit and
a telephone would be required to be placed at a location readily
accessible to the pool. Directions to the location of the first aid
kit and telephone must be posted at a location clearly visible from
the pool deck and in a manner protected against the elements.
5. A diagrammatic illustration of artificial respiration procedures to be
posted at a location clearly visible from the pool deck and in a manner
as to be protected from the elements.

to reflect the change in waiting time from $.10 per minute to $.20 per
