collection of such taxes as by Act of the Legislature are required to be
collected. Should any remission of penalty-and interest on taxes appear-
ing on the delinquent records be made by legislative enactment effective
during the period of, this contract, the same shall not be collected nor

Yoakum, Texas 77995
Re: State Highway 185, Calhoun County
Dear Mr. Ramert:
Calhoun County has explored the possibility of actual cost fence
construction but due to the length of the project, the variety
of fences and the high cost of some of the fencing, the Commis-
sioners Court feels that a firm commitment in four segments is
the best approach to the fencing of the right of way takings. The
four segments would be as follows:
. \
.~"_,~-..J

I. Powderhorn Ranch;
2. LaSalle Ranch; ,
3. Welder Ranch and
4. The remainder of the project.
Very truly yours,

in 45 days ,after receiving the doors and other items pertaining

Both bidders reported that delivery of the doors could not be

that a pay telephone be installed, stating that air traffic was

within the office area 'so that he could then clear the rest of
the area to be utilized for a waiting room. He stated this would
provide additional area for seating.

Bob Tanner objected to any expenditure of funds because there was
little or no income from the airport - only expenses from tax
money. He stated that the airport should tend to be more self
supporting and until such time, expenditures should not be made
other than upkeep.
Mr. Houlihan pointed out that the airport was petitioned and bonds
voted by the people, hence the support by tax funds.
The Court went to view the airport building following lunch.
Motion was made by Commissioner Wedig, seconded by Commissioner
Kabe1a, and carried, that purchase be authorized for 8 chairs
comparable to those at the airport waiting room.

Precinct #3: - After our discussion with Commissioner Lindsey, we
have decided to bid a truck that not only meets your basic speci-
fications but exceeds them. Commissioner Lindsey does his own
black-topping and hauls "Chat" rock that weights about 2700 lbs. per
yard and his new truck is to have a 5 yd. water level bed with 6
yd. ends, with the side boards they will have an extremely heavy
load at times, sand can weigh'up to 3375 lbs per yard which totals
even more. We feel that Commissioner Lindsey needs an extra heavy
duty truck and had rather miss the business than to deliver a
truck that they would not be happy with. We solicit this business
and ask your serious consideration.

HOWARD G. HARTZOG - FORMER COUNTY JUDGE
Motion by Commissioner Kabela, seconded by Commissioner Lindsey, and
carried, that the following biographical sketch of former County Judge,
Howard G. Hartzog, Deceased, be entered in the Minutes of the Court.
Howard G. Hartzog lived in Calhoun County for 56 of his 67 years - l7
of which he served as County Judge and l4 as State Representative from
the old 69th District, representing Calhoun, Victoria and Goliad Counties.
, '
He knew Calhoun County - its people, its history, its heritage and its
potential. As ,a friend and .neighbor, he was on first name basis with
nearly every family in the county. As a historian, he wrote one of
the most comprehensive accounts of its history on record. As head of
the County Historica.l Heritage Association, he presented a detailed
account of the known and little known landmarks throughout the county
for the,State Archives - requested by the Governor. He not only served
as County Judge, guiding it through the "fabulous 50's" when industry
discovered Calhoun County, but as County School Superintendent, and as
an economist, promoting every opportunity to develop its resources.
The fact that he early recognized its potential is evidenced by the
Acts of "progressive legislation" which Judge Hartzog introduced as a
member of the Texas Legislature from 1932 - 1946.
Among these Acts were the State Seawalls Act, the Guadalupe-Blanco
River Authority Act, the Certificate of Title Act (automobile registra-
tion), and the Act authorizing Countywide School Districts.
Records of this were made in a resolution memorializing the Judge intro-
duced by Representative R. H. Cory who represented Victoria and Calhoun
Counties, setting.forth the highlights of Judge Hartzog's extraordinary
life and career, in the Texas House of Representatives, June l2, 1968.
The account traces his life from the time the late Judge's father,
Joseph O. Hartzog, moved from Bayou Teche, La., to To1osa, Kaufman
County, Texas, in 1901, to his unexpected death in a Marlin Hospital,
May l8, 1968. It also traces the Judge's athletic ca.reer which earned
him a nomination for All-American in football at Baylor University, and
membership on two of the nation's earliest professional football teams,
as well as his experience as a committee clerk for Texas Senators Morris
Shepherd and Tom Connolly.
Born in Tolosa in Kaufman County, he moved to Calhoun County in 19l2.
He graduated from Baylor University and received his law degree from
George Washington University. He was a director of the Texas Mid-
Coast Water Development Association, which promoted the development
and construction of the Matagorda Deepwater Ship Channel, and the or-
ganization of Calhoun Navigation District, which operates the channel,
82
and was vice-president of the Corpus Christi district of the Economic
Development Authority, promoting programs which brought state and
federal aid programs to the county. He was also a member of the
local, Masonic Lodge and the Rotary Club, and s~rved as Secret,ary of
the Chamber of Commerce.
During his administration as County Judge, Calhoun became the leading
county in the state in number of miles of farm-to-market roads per
capita. Calhoun's hospital, first a 2o-bed unit that opened in 1950,
underwent two major expansion programs during his tenure, the Lavaca
Bay Causeway, the new courthouse, the county airport, county library-
museum and county agricultural buildins were built.
I
Judge Hartzog was married to Anna Paul Allen in Marlin in 1935, who
died in 1967. They had two children, Martha Ann, (Mrs.Erik.Stocker)
and Howard, Jr., both of Austin.
MARCH 12, 1971
HOSPITAL - LAWNMOWER
Judge Jetton reported to the Court that the only quotation received
for a Yazoo lawnmower for the hospital was from J.C. Melcher.
Motion by Commissioner Kabela, seconded by Commissioner Wedig, and
carried, that the quotation of J. C. Melcher be accepted for a I
YR37 Yazoo lawnmower in the amount of $490.00, to be paid out of
the Permanent Improvement Fund.
BIDS - TRUCKS, PRECINCTS l, 2, 3 and 4
Motion by.Commissioner Wedig, seconded by COITmlissioner Kabela, and
carried, that the low bids of Marshall Chevrolet Company be accepted
for 1 truck for Precinct No. l, 1 truck for Precinct No.3, and 2
trucks for Precinct No.4, and the low bid,of Gulf Truck and Tractor
Company be accepted for 1 truck for Precinct No.2.

PARKS AND WILDLIFE DEPARTMENT - BOAT RAMP, SWAN POINT, PRCT. NO.4
Mr. Bob Taylor, with the Parks and Wildlife Dept., met with the Court to

county would only be involved in the construction of the boat ramp.
Precinct #4 Commissioner R. W.Sanders will meet with Mr. Taylor to

The purpose of this project is to widen State Highway 185 by
erecting new fencing for the various land owners on the various
parcels and at the places and in the manner indicated in the
Contract, Documents.
This project is divided into two portions, as follows:
Portion I is the portion between Seadrift, Texas and
Lane Road.
Portion II is all of the remainder of the project.
Portion I is now ready for work to commence, and Con-
tractor shall commence work on this portion within 30 days from
receipt of a Work Order from the Commissioner of Precinct No.4,
subject, however, to any extension of time which may be necessary
by the Commissioner of Precinct No.4. No work shall be commenced
prior to the issuance of such Work Order, however, inasmuch as such
Work Order will not be issued until Contractor has furnished County
with Performance and Payment Bonds and a Certificate of Insurance as
provided in the Contract Documents.
As to Portion II, all of the right of way has not yet been
acquired, and for this reason, the work on this portion of the job
will not take place until all of said right of way is acquired.
Some of the land owners may not desire their fence to be replaced.
Therefore, this County reserves the right to vary the quantity
of fence to be furnished on a unit basis as specified in the Con-
tract Documents by increasing or decreasing the amount of fence
required. However, in this connection, it is provided as follows:
Contractor shall purchase at one time all material
necessary for building all fences herein described, thereby
eliminating the possibility of an increase in price of material
during the progress of the job, and Contractor may, if it desires,
store such material at Precinct No.4, headquarters in Seadrift,
Texas (with the understanding that County assumes no responsibility
of any kind for the safety or preservation of such material. Any
such material which is not needed by Contractor on account of the
election by anyone or more of the land owners not to have his,
her, their or its fence replaced shall be purchased by County
from Contractor at inventory cost, unless Contractor desires to
keep such excess material.
Progress payments will be made to the Contractor at the
end of each calendar month upon approval of such statement by the
Commissioner of Precinct No.4. It is further provided as follows:
In the event more than 30 days elapse between the time work is com-
pieted and accepted by County on Portion I and the time work is
ready to commence on Portion II, then County will, at the end of
said 30 day period, make an advance payment on the contract to Con-
tractor in an amount equal to the inventory cost of the material
for said Portion II, but no such advance payment shall cause County
to become responsible in any way for the safety or preservation of
such material. Final payment shall be made upon completion of the
work and acceptance thereof by the Commissioner of Precinct No.4.
156
Portion I of the project shall be completed in Thirty
(30) working days; and Portion II thereof shall be completed in
Thirty (30) working days. A "working day" is defined as being
a day in which at least Seven (7) hours of consecutive work can
be performed, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
Right of way line surveys will be furnished by the
State Highway Department.
County shall remove the old fences.
I
3,. It is estimated that the total contract price for the com-
plete job will be $13,018.02; but the exact contract price shall
be determined on a unit price basis as set out in the Contract
Documents and in accordance with the terms of such documents.
4. Exhibits "B" through "E" shall be deemed to be a part of
the Specifications (Exhibit "A").
5. Contractor agrees to protect, indemnify and hold County
free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands
and causes of action of every, kind and character (including the
amounts of judgments, penalties, interest, court costs and legal
fees incurred by County in defense of same) arising in favor of
governmental agencies, or third parties (including, but not
limited to, employees of Contractor) on account of permits,
claims, debts, personal injuries, deaths or damages to property,
and, without limitation by enumeration, all other claims or de-
mands of every character occurring or in anywise incident to
or in connection with or arising out of the covenants to be per- I
formed by Contractor under and pursuant to the terms of this con-
tract.

it securely stored.
On or before August 15th the District Clerk will cause the said names
to be placed into a jury wheel. The jury wheel shall be kept locked
at all times, except when in use as hereinafter provided, by the
use of two separate locks, so arranged ,that the key to pne will not

or one of his deputies and the District Judge or Judges.
I
The prospective jurors' names shall be drawn from said wheel by
a fair, impartial and objective method, and the list of persons to
be called for jury service so selected will be determined by the

I FLOUNDER POINT - LAW SUITS AFFECTING COUNTY PROPERTY
Mr. Willett Wilson met with the Court concerning the lawsuit styled
Katherine R. Staley, et al vs Calhoun County, in District Court of
Calhoun County and tendered fQ~ (~) deeds signed by the Staley Heirs
to Calhoun County on the Flounder Point property.
Mr. Wilson stated he would like to trade 1.8 ac. of land at Galli-
nipper Point in Calhoun County for the 2 ac. in question at Flounder
Point.
Mr. O. F.Jones, Attorney, with the law firm of Guittard, Henderson,
Jones & Lewis, representing Calhoun County, explained to Mr. Wilson
that the County cannot convey the property to him in this manner. Mr.
Jones said the only way for the County to dispose of county property
would be by public sale at public auction, and there are no provi-
sions for private sale or trade of county property. Secondly, Mr.
Jones explained that there have been objections by citizens of Calhoun
County to the trade of the Flounder Point property. Thirdly, Mr.
Jones explained to Mr. Wilson that the County would not accept a deed
to property that the County feels it already owns.
I
Mr. Wilson then asked if it would be possible for him to deed the
land at Gallinipper ,Point for a park with dismissal of the Staley
suit now pending in District Court and asked if the County would
release it's claim to Flounder Point.

wise determined the Court must recognize the petition submitted by
tge interested citizens to keep Flounder Point.

TEXAS AIR CONTROL BOARD - HEARINGS
Motion by Commissioner Lindsey, seconded by Commissioner Kabela, and
carried, that the following recommendation to the Texas Air Control
Board be approved and the County Judge authorized to execute same.
232
December 3, 1971
Mr. Charles R. Barden, P. E.
Executive Secretary
Texas Air Control Board
820 E. 53rd Street
Austin, Texas 78751
Subject: Statement For Public Hearing On Proposed Implementation 'I'
Plan, Air Quality Standards, and Rules and Regulations
Dear Mr. Barden:
A copy of your proposed Implementation Plan, Air Quality Stan-
dards, and Rules and Regulations came to our attention on Novem- ,
ber 24th. While we have not had an opportunity to fully explore
all of the proposals during this limited time, we do believe they
are generally acceptable, and we commend you and your staff for
your efforts.
However, we do take exception at this time to one statement in
the first paragraph on Page 1 of the Air Quality Standards, which
statement reads as follows:
"
"..... .....If an area has concentrations less than the
specified'levels, it is the intention of the Texas Air
Control Board to maintain the existing levels in that
area."
We interpret the quoted statement to mean that if the present
level of contamination is zero, then any condition that causes
emissions and yet still does not exceed acceptable standards
would nevertheless be in violation.
I
We fear that this could seriously affect the economy of Calhoun
County. For instance:
1. If a new industry moves into the area or an addition
of a new process is made to one of our existing industries,
they would change our environment and still be within normal
technical or acceptable standards but nevertheless they would
be in violation because of the existing low or non-existent
readings.
2. Calhoun County is currently blessed with the availability
of sulfur-free natural gas for all uses from domestic to
industrial purposes. However, the supply of such natural gas
is dwindling, and, with an expected energy crisis, we will
probably have to import fuels to the area that contain sul-
fur and consequently create an S02 emission which will
violate the Air Quality Standards if the quoted statement:
is allowed to remain as is.
I
Bearing in mind the foregoing, we would like to recommend that the
hereinabove quoted statement be amended and enlarged to read as
follows:
I
:'\!

......

"If an area has concentrations less than the specified levels,.
it is the intention of the Texas Air Control Board to maintain
the existing levels in that area. However, the Board, at its
discretion, may modify the standards for contaminants in any
such area for due cause. Such due cause may be new industry in
a rural area, expansion of present processes of or the addition
of new processes to any industry now or hereafter existing in an
area, and/or changes in an area's fuel supply."
We are cognizant of our local industries' effort with your staff
and we heartily support their efforts to assist in establishing
effective standards.

We, the undersigned residents of Calhoun County, Texas, respectfully
petition the Honorable Judge Jetton and the Commissioners' Court of
Calhoun County to conduct a public hearing for all interested parties
to determine the right of the public to free access .to that portion
of lP'ublic land lying between low water mark and high water mark of
the beach shores of Matagorda Bay lying between Port O'Connor and
Indianola, Texas; ,such land being the Matagorda Bay boundary line
of a section ,of property known locally as the Powderhown Ranch.
And further, that the hearing determine the right of access by the
public to such bQdies of water known locally as Boggy Bayou, Big
Dam Bayou, Huckleberry Bayou, Broad Bayou and Powderhown Lake;
such waters being connected to Matagorda Bay by tidal flows of
water between th~ bQdies of water 'and Matagorda Bay.
Petitioners state that free access to these mentioned lands and
waters for the purpose of hunting, fishing, oystering, camping,
picnicing, and b~ach combing by the public is denied by the con-
struction of fences built and maintained by the Powderhown Ranch.
across certain beach areas and across certain parts. of the waters
mentioned above.
Further, that persons attempting the use of these lands and waters
have been harrassed and intimidated and, upon occasion, arrested
for trespass by the owners and operators of the Po,wderhown Ranch
and enforcement officials of the Texas State Department of Parks
and Wildlife. We petition that such harrassments and arrests be
caused to cease immediately and permanently.
Persons signing this ~etition should use pen and ink; Their
signature should be their name in full as listed on tax -rolls or
voter registration lists .or upon other legal papers. Do not use
nicknames.

Mr. Alex Dean and wife, Elizabeth Dean, met with the Court to
discuss purchase of Lots 4 and 9, and 1/2 of Lot 5, Block 67 of
the Original Townsite of Port Lavaca, which was sold on a Tax
Sale to the State of Texas. Mr. Roberts explained to the Court
that no deed could be located out of the State of Texas and that
the Commissioners' Court had the authority to execute a deed.
Motion by Commissioner Wedig, seconded by Commissioner Kabela, and
carried, that the two following letters from the General Land
O~fice be entered in the Minutes and also the following Resolution
be entered authorizing the County Judge to execute a deed covering

Attention: Mr. George Fred Rhodes
I
Gentlemen:
This is in reply to your letter of September 8 concerning a
client of yours who has been occupying and claiming Lot 4, 1/2
of Lot 5 and Lot 9, Block 67, in the original townsite of Port
Lavaca, Calhoun County.
Your letter also states that in 1900 the taxing authorities of
Calhoun County took a judgment'against the unknown owners of this
property for delinquent taxes. in 1901 the lots were deeded to
the State of Texas by sheriff's deed. As we understand the law,
when a taxing agency forecloses on land and it is deeded to the
State to hold in trust for all taxing agencies, and in,accordance
with statutory law can be resold by the Commissioners Court of
the county where the land is located. Each taxing agency would
receive its porportionate part of the revenue for delinquent taxes.
Since there is nothing on the records to indicate that the land
was ever sold by the State, it is our opinion that legal title
is still in the State. The General Land Office has no authority I
to authorize the sale of this land; nor do we exercise any juris-
diction over it. We suggest that you contact the Commissioners' .
Court of Calhoun County for relief.
Sincerely yours,
Bob Annstrong

Dear Sheriff Roberson:
I am writing you at the request of the Commissioners Court.
I
On September 13, 1971, you reque~ted theCommissioners Court to

In the meantime, the County Attorney, at the request of the
Commissioners Court, has obtained an opinion from the Attorney
General on various matters pertaining to ReserVe Dputy Sheriffs,
and I enclose herewith a copy of such opinion.
You will notice on pages 3 and 4 of said opinion that the At-
torney General holds, in effect, that 'a 'person cannot qualify
as a Reserve Deputy Sher~ff without first meeting the training
standards established by the Commission on Law Enforcement Officer
Standards and Education.
Very truly yours,

Honorable William W. Day
County Attorney,

Opinion No. M-I026
Re: Reserve Deputy Sheriffs
268
Dear Sir:
You have requested the opinion of this office concerning certain
statutes passed by the Sixty-Second Legislature creating and
governing a new classification of peace officer known as "Reserve
Deputy Sheriffs". Your inquiry is so restricted as to eliminate
our consideration of "Reserve Deputy Constable" and "Reserve I
Police Officer": .
Your inquiry concerns the following questions:
1.
Deputy
Is the "grandfather clause" applicable to a "Reserve
Sheriff"?
2. Mayan uncompensated "Reserve Deputy Sheriff" legally
carry a weapon and function as a policy officer?
3. Is recompense for equipment and uniforms optional to
the county?
4.
for pay
etc. ?
May private concerns employ
and assign them as security
"Reserve Deputy Sheriffs"
officers, watchmen, bouncers,
5. Maya "Reserve Deputy Sheriff" function alone or must
he be accompanied by a "regular" officer?
6. An inquiry concerning county liability to a Reserve
Deputy Sheriff that is answered by Attorney General Opinion M-990
(l971), a'copy of which has been sent you under separate cover.
I
Senate Bill 43, Acts 62nd Legislature, Regular Session (197l)
defines and authorizes tne appointment of Reserve Deputy Sheriffs
as follows:
"Section 1. (a) The Commissioners Court of any county in the
State may authorize theffieriff of the county to appoint reserve
deputy sheriffs'. . . who shall be subject to serve as peace of-
ficers during the actual discharge of their official duties upon
call of the sheriff, . . .
"(b) The Commissioners Court may limit the number of reserve
deputy sheriffs . . . who may be appointed.
"(c) Such reserve deputy sheriffs shall serve at the dis-
cretion of the sheriff and may be called into service at any time
the sheriff considers it necessary to have additional officers
to preserve the peace and enforce the law . . .
"(d) Such reserve deputy sheriffs. . . shall serve without
pay but the Commissioners Court may privide compensation for I
the purchase of uniforms and/or equipment used by such individuals.
"(e) Such reserve deputy sheriffs . . . prior to their entry
upon duty and simultaneously with their appointments, shall file
an oath and bond in the amount of Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000.00)
payable to the Sheriff,...

"(f) Such reserve deputy sheriffs, while on active duty at the
call of the sheriff and while actively engaged in their assigned
duties. . . shall be vested with the same rights, privileges,
obligations and duties of any other peace officer of the State of
Texas.
"Sec. 4. Any qualifications established for the position of
reserve deputy sheriff . . .by the Commissioners Court shall
meet the minimum physical, mental, educational and moral stan-
dards established by the Commission on Law Enforcement Officer
Standards and Education, but may be stricter than the standards
of the Commission."
At a time subsequent to the foregoing, Senate Bill 72, Acts of
62nd Legislature, Regular Session, (1971) was passed which also
defined and authorized the appointment of Reserve Deputy Sheriffs
(as well as Reserve Deputy Constables and a police force reserve).
There might have been conflicts between these two Acts but the
passage of Senate Bill 17, Acts 62nd Legislature, 1st Called Ses-
sion (l971) clarified any such conflicts and repealed all of Senate
Bill 72 (supra) relating to sheriffs and constables with the minor
exception concerning educational standards and training which is
non-conflicting.
By harmonizing these three Acts we find the following applicable
education and training requirements as applied to reserve deputy
sheriffs:
1. Senate Bill 43, Sec. 3, imposes the burden on the Commis-
sion on Law Enforcement Office Standards and Education to:
". . . establish minimum training standards for all reserve
,law enforcement officers which must be fulfilled before a
person appointed as a reserve law enforcement officer may
carry a weapon or otherwise act as a peace office." (emphasis
added) .
2. Senate Bill 72, Sec. 5, imposes the burden as to deputy
sheriffs that:
"Any qualifications established for the position of reserve
deputy sheriff . . . by the Commissioners Court, . . .
shall meet the minimum physical, mental, educational, and
moral standards established by the Commission on Law Enforce-
ment Officer Standards and Education, but may be stricter
than the standards of the Commission."
And Senate Bill 72, Sec. 6, (supra) sets forth the following
"grandfather clause":
Section 6. Any person serving as a reserve law enforcement
officer before the effective date of this Act may be appointed
to temporarily serve as a reserve law enforcement officer
without fulfilling the mimimum training standards established
by the Commission on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and
Education. In no case shall any person serve as a reserve
law enforcement officer after January 1, 1973, unless he
has fulfilled the minimum physical, mental, educational,
moral and training standards established by the Commission
on Law Enforcement Officer Standards and Education."
270
L
Since Senate Bill 17 (supra) repealed all material re~erence in
Senate Bill 72 to anything but "police reserve force" it is the
opinion of this office that Reserve Deputy Sheriffs may ,not
qualify under the grandfather clause.
IL, . ,
I
Article 483, Texas Penal Code, prohibits the carrying of a
pistol (and other weapons) in the State of Texas. Article
484, Texas Penal Code, exempts, inter alia,'~,. . . any peace
officer in the actual discharge of his official duty. . "
Senate Bill 43 (supra) makes a Reserve Deputy Sheriff a peace
officer when called into service. Therefore, it is the opinion
of this office that a Reserve Deputy Sheriff may be armed and
function as a peace officer when (and only when) called into
service as provided by the new law.
IlL
Since the new law uses the word "may" with regard to compensa-
tion for uniforms and equipment, it is the opinion of this of-
fice that the statute on its face makes it discretionary with
the Commissioners Court to payor not pay for such items.
IV.
Although no impediment is preceived to prevent the appointment I
of persons as Reserve Deputy Sheriffs who are normally employed
as industrial guards, bouncers, night watchmen, etc., some
questions might arise concerning conflict between such employ-
ment and the discharge of one's duties as a peace officer.
Since no Court has yet had an opportunity to interpret the
phrase ','while on active duty at the call of the sheriff and
while actively engaged in their assigned duties," our response
on this matter will perforce be concluded in general terms.
It is the opinion of this office that Reserve Deputy Sheriffs
while on active service will resolve employment conflicts in
the same manner and on the same basis as regular deputies;
while not. on-active service, no conflict exists.
v. ,
There, being no restriction contained in the statute, it is the
opinion of this office that while on active duty a Reserve De-
puty Sheriff may function alone, subject only to the same juris-
dictional and venue restrictions imposed by law on regular de-
puties.
SUMMARY
I
A Reserve Deputy Sheriff may not qualify under the "grandfather
clause".
A Reserve Deputy Sheriff may legally carry a weapon while on
active duty (even though not government compensated).
I
I
I
271
Compensation for uniforms and equipment of Reserve Deputy Sheriffs
is entirely discretionary with Commissioners Court.
Reserve ,Deputy Sheriffs, while on active duty, are governed as to
employment conflicts in the same manner as regular deputies.
A Reserve Deputy Sheriff on active duty may function alone and
need not necessarily be accompanied by a "regular" office'r.

Sheriff Roberson then asked the Court.for a discussion and order for
the appointment of l8 Reserve Deputy Sheriffs. The Court explained that
a discussion would be in order but the Court could not take action on
the appointments because the agenda was posted to enter the Attorney
General's opinion in the Minutes of the Commissioners' Court and not
posted to take any action on the order authorizing the Sheriff to ap-
point Reserve Deputies.
A lengthy discussion ensued concerning the appointments and the Court
stated they would be in favor of authorizing the appointment of l8
certified Reserve Deputies at the Regular February Term, 1972.

The Court then made the following statement regarding request
by Sheriff to increase his 1972 Budget in order to increase the
salaries of Deputies:
At 1:30 o'clock P.M. on January, 10, 1972, the Commissioners Court
of Calhoun County, Texas, had a budget hearing in the Commissioners Court
ROom at the Courthouse in Calhoun County, Texas, which time and plac~ of such
1
hearing had been duly advertised in the newspaper as required by law.
The purpose of such public hearing was to hear any objections or
comments that anyone cared.to make; to,make any ch~nges or corrections which
the 'Commissioners Court ~ight ,see fit to make; and to adopt the budget for
, 1972.
No objections were offered at such hearing, and the 1972 budget was
approved and adopted'by the Commissioners Court. The Sheriff did not appear
at such hearing.
Insofar as the Commissioners Court was concerned, the matter of the
1972 budget had been settled at the hearing on January 10th, and no further
hearing was needed or called for.
However, on January 11, 1972, which was one day after such hearing,
I
. the Sheriff requested that 'he be placed on the February 14th agenda to discuss'
amending,the budget to provide pay raises for his deputies for the year 1972.
The Commissioners Court wishes to emphasize that it is because of the Sheriff's
request, and only because of such request. that it is now considering this matter.
In response to such request., the Commissioners Court would show the following:
(1) Comparison of actual expenditures by the Calhoun County
Sheriff's Department in the year 1968 with the budgets and expenditures of such
department for the years 1969 through 1972:
Budget Approved by Actual Expenditure
Year Commissioners Court For The Year
1968 $ 67,855.30
1969 $ 87,450;00 85,282.49
1970 99,155.00 98,665.11 I
1971 102,786.00 105.706.79
1972 110,368.00
(2) Comparison of the Sheriffs authorized,budget for 1972 with the
actual expenditures of the Sheriff's Department in 1968:
Authorized 1972 budget
Actual expenditures in 1968
Increase of 1972 budget over 1968 expense
$110,368.00
67,855.30
$ 42,512.70
:
295
Thus, it can be seen that the Commissioners Court has authorized
expenditures for operating the Sheriff's Department in 1972 which exceed the
1968 expenditures by $42,512.70, or an increase of 62.65%.
(3) Comparison of increase in Sheriff's Department with the
I
increase in,the other departments in the Courthouse; 1972 budget over 1968
actual expenditures:

~,
"
.'.:
(4) Now.,the Sheriff desires to increase his 1972 budget for' the
purpose of increasing the salaries of the deputies in his department. and the
Commissioners Court agrees that their salaries are too low.
However. the Comm~ssioners Court takes the position that at this
time the answer to the problem is not for the Commissioners Court to budget
more money. but the answer is rather to be found in the internal operation of
the Sheriff's office. In other words, the Commissioners Court feels that the
Sheriff could make some administrative adjustments that would reduce other
costs and thereby effect a savings in the department. and the Court could then
I
reallocate such savings to be used for salary increases.
In this connection, the Commissioners Court'would call attention
to the following matters which reveal :areas in which savings could be effected:
- 2 -
i
.~
~
296
A. Comparison of number of deputy sheriffs in various counties and the
area and population of sueh counties:
, COUNTY AF:LA POPULATION NU11BER OF
(SQUAF:L MILES) DEPUTIES
Matagorda 1140 27,913 6 (1 deputy for each
I 4952 people) I
r ! - ~ . I . J -
.
Wharton 1079 36,729 B (1 depnty for each
4591 people
DeWitt 910 lB,660 4 1/3 (1 deputy foreach
4309 people)
Jackson B54 12,975 3 (1 deputy for each
4325 people
CalhOu.11 536 17,B31' 7 (1 deputy for each,
2547 people)
Thus it can be seen that whereas Calhoun County has 1 deputy
sheriff for each 2547 people, in the other counties listed
above 1 deputy serves well in excess of 4,000 people, and
,in Wharton County, 1 deputy actually serves nearly 5,O~O
people.
By reducing the number of Calhoun County deputies from 7 to 6,
this County would even then still have 1 deputy for each
I
2972 people, which is still G far better ratio than that in
the other counties listed above.
It should also be noted that Calhoun County has an area of only 536
square miles to be covered by the deputies, which is less than 1/2 of the area
of Wharton County, and is far less than the area of the other counties listed
above.
It is also noted that Matagorda County has beach areas.
B. The Commissioners Court notes that Jackson County and the City of Edna
share with each other in the cost of teletype rental and dispatc~ing.
(5) The Commissioners Court notes that the Sheriff's Department
does not have the sole responsibility for law enforcement; the City of Port
Lavaca has 13 policemen and 13' reserve officers; the Cities of Point Comfort
1
and Seadrift each have an officer; the County has 5 constables; and the State
of Texas has highway patrolmen and' game wardens stationed in the County. All
,of these officers are being paid by State, County and City tax monies.
(6) While we are discussing the personnel of the Sheriff's Department
and their salaries, there is one matter in particular that the Commissioners

Court would like to call to your attention. It is a matter which has cost
the County money and a matter which is causing the Commissioners Court grave
concern. We are referring to the number of automobile accidents involving
the cars of the Sheriff's Department.
From February 17, 1970 through March 26, 1971, Sheriff's Department
cars were involved in 5 automobile accidents. At this point, the
/
~insurance company cancelled the,insurance.
Insurance was then obtained with another company and there has now
been one accident in a Sheriff's Department car under this neW
policy., We fear that if this trend continues, this policy will be
in danger of cancellation.
In view of the Tort Claims Act which became the law of this State
'on January 1, 1970, it is absolutely essential that we' have in-
surance on any County car that operates on any public road;
(7) The Sheriff has pointed out the' salaries P?id to deputies in
V~tagorda, Refugio and Wharton Counties. The Commissioners Court would also'
,
point out the salaries in Jackson, DeWitt and Victoria Counties, towit;
Jackson County: Chief Deputy - $550.00 per month,
and regular deputies - $50~ per month.
" DeWitt County;
Chief Deputy - $548.75 per month
and regular deputies - $523.7~per month

CALHOUN COUNTY DRAINAGE DISTRICT NO. 11
I
Motion by Commissioner Lindsey, seconded by Commissioner Sanders,
and carried, that the following statement be entered concerning
the Court's position on the drainage project of Drainage District
No. 11.
MATTERS REGARDING DRAINAGE PROJECT IN CALHOUN COUNTY DRAINAGE DIST.ll
I.
Original Watershed Work Plan Agreement for Chocolate, Little
Chocolate and Lynn Bayou Watershed project was entered into by and
between Calhoun-Victoria County Soil Conservation District, Calhoun
County Drainage District No. 11 and Calhoun County Commissioners
Court, as the Sponsoring Local Organisations; and by Soil Conserva-
tion Service, and is dated, I believe, on October 21, 1965.
One of the original sponsoring organizations, the Calhoun-Victoria
County Soil Conservation District, is now known as Calhoun Soil and
Water Conservation District.
The Commissioners Court of Calhoun County is not financially involved
in the project:
I
All financing is soleiy in the name of Calhoun County
Drainage District No. ll.
All easements have been acquired by Calhoun County
Drainage District No. II and are owned solely by the
Drainage District.
300
II.
For quite some time the Commissioners Court has been dissatisfied
.'. \..
and concerned with the manner in which this project was being
developed.
As a result of this dissatisfaction and concern, on behalf of
the Commissioners Court I wrot~ a letter on January 20, 1972, to I
the top officials of Soil Conservation Service, Calhoun County
Drainage District No. II and Calhoun Soil and Water Conservation
Service, in which letter I expressed the dissatisfaction of the
Commissioners Court with the manner in which-the project is being
developed.
By letter dated January 26, 1972, Mr. Clyde W. Graham, State
Conservationist of Soil Conservation Service, replied to my letter
of January 20th.
The Commissioners Court takes exception to three things in Mr.
Graham's letter of January 26th, towit:
First:
flood which
1971.
Mr. Graham infers that the trouble began with the
accompanied Hurricane Fern, which was in September,
As a matter of fact the trouble 'began to show 'up some two
years ago before Hurricane Fern, and the Commissioners Court
officially called this trouble\to the attention of the Soil Con-
servation Service and Drainage District No. 11 approximately I'
1 1/2 years before Hurricane Fern.
I refer you to the Minutes of the Commissioners Court of April
16, 1970",and I will now read to you an excerpt from those minutes.
I would point out this was also long before Mr. Mansfield ever
made any complaint to any member o~ the Commissioners Court.
So, the Commissioners Court would point out that the trouble be-
gan before Hurricane Fern and was called to the~tention of Soil
Conservation Service.
Second: Mr. Graham indicates that the section of the channel
that has shown severe erosion represents only a small percentage
of all constructed works of improvemerit in the watershed.
The Commissioners Court would'point out that even if this is true,
the sand is being washed. dumped and, 'deposited along an area some
8 miles long or more frd~ the point :of erosion all the way to the
bay.
Third: Mr. Graham slates that except for the eroded area,
all other works of the improvement functioned very well during
the hurricane.
I
The Commissioners Court would submit that ~hen sand is being
washed down stream and uncontrollably deposited at various
points along an area 8 miles long, then the system is not
functioning properly.
301
III.
In spite of all of the foregoing, the problem not only has con-
tinued to exist for some two to three years, but it seems to get
worse instead of better.
I
The Commissioners Court does.not know where the problem actually
starts, but we do know that a problem exists all the way frbm
the Agua Dulce crossing on F. M. Road No; 1679 to the point where
Big Chocolate enters the bay~
:'\!
CO
......
c::o
u
u
Between the Highway 1679 crossing and Sweetwater Road, the water
flow is causing the channel to continually get wider and deeper.
A majority of the sand seems to be coming from this area and is
piling up on the area between the Sweetwater Road and the bay.
Sand is being deposited not only on the easement area but on
private lands outside of the easement.
The situation is also causing trouble with the County bridge on
the Sweetwater Road crossing of Agua Dulce. The system's water-
flow has deepened the creek at this crossing so that every time
there is a big rain, it washes more sand out from under the ends
of the bridge and also washes out the approaches to the bridge.
This closes the road at this point for approximately two days
until the water goes down and the approaches can be repaired by
a County crew.
I
The situation is also causing trouble with the County bridge'
at the entrance to Matson Addition. Every rain of 4 or 5 inches
or more covers the approaches to this bridge with deep deposits
of sand and makes the road impassable for approximately 2 days
after the water goes down. It takes 2 days for a County crew of
3 men to clear this sand off of the road right of way so as to
make the road passable.
Many residents of Matson Addition are complaining to their County
Commissioner about the sand deposits and are in fact asking the
County to do whatever work is necessary to correct the problem.
IV.
So far, the sanding and silting has been caused from the digging
on Agua Dulce Creek.
However, the Commissioners Court very much fears that the sanding
problem will be greatly compounded when digging starts on 'Big
Chocolate, unless proper measures are taken in advance of the
digging.
I
The Commissioners Court would also point out that it is worried
about what effect present and future drainage programs in
Victoria County will have on the flooding problem in Calhoun
County; and inasmuch as Soil Conservation Service operates in
both counties, the Service is in a position to see that drainage
programs in one county do not adversely affect drainage and flood-
ing in an adjoining county.

TANNER, JR., ROBERT L.
I
Mr. Robert L. Tanner, Jr., met with the Court, as a private citizen,
to discuss three matters:
(l) Possible County Wide or Joint City-County efforts
directed toward solving the junk and garbage problem.
(2) Possible means of making more information on County
Operations available to County citizens.
(3) Possible consolidation of certain governmental functions
within the county.
Mr. Tanner stated that at the time he drafted the letter he was
interested in all three matters but he wanted to limit the discus-
sion at this time to the junk and garbage problem in the County.
He stated there are old cars, buses and every kind of conceivable
junk abandoned over the County as well as the beaches. Mr. Tanner
said our beaches in Calhoun County are the only inland beaches
along the Texas Coast. He stated that perhaps some compaction
method could be used to handle bulky items that would relieve the
situation. Mr. Tanner also recommended that a committee be~pointed
to work with the Court and maybe some effort could be made to solve
the problem in the County.
I
The Court thanked Mr. Tanner for his interest and stated the Court
would like to see the problem solved and maybe some State Legislation
might be in order.
Mr. Tanner also commended the Court for its efforts in looking into
the sewerage disposal problems in the new subdivisions.

Gentlemen:
Officers of the Central Coast Sailing Club met on February 21 in
executive session, and one of the items discussed was the inade-
quacy of the sailing area at Magnolia,Beach. It was the consensus
that this problem be brought to your kind attention, and,that you
be requested to include it as an item for your agenda at your next
meeting. We are confident that upon serious consideration of the
following facts that you will want to help us. We speak only for
the club members, but we know our problem is also applicable to a
great extent to non-club members who love sailing.
1. Although not officially designated for sailing, we have chosen
the area which is now limited to only 600 ft. from the South East
Corner of the bridge crossing the road immediately south of the
Magnolia Beach boat ramp. At the 600 ft. point begins the swrn-
ming zone in which, as we understand it, sailing, as well as motor-
boating, is barred by ordinance. Most of this 600 ft. space is
unsuitable for any sort of boating by reason of the water depth,
and this includes sailing by reason of sail boat center-board re-
quirements. Since sail boat T-heads are not available anywhere
along the beach, and since the contour of the beach in the above
600 ft. area and beyong makes the prevailing winds more favorably
directed for small sail boats anchoring and launching, any other
location along the beach outside of th~estricted zone, whether
down near the point or beyond, would be less than desirable and
offer other problems to be mentioned below.
2. Any extension of the 600 ft. to at least 900 ft. from the South-
east corner of the bridge would be more adequate for us, and would
not, we believe, unreasonably restrict the swimming area when con-
sidering past observations of the number of participating swimmers.
3. The suggestion might be made that sail boating be done immediately
south of the restricted zone. Although we believe all boaters are
a friendly group, it can readily be seen that motor boats and sail
boats just would not mix. A safety factor is here involved because
of possible congestion with motor boats and water skiers. If the
suggestion be made that sailing be done beyond ,the "point", we re-
vert to the favorable beach contour and wind factor mentioned earlier,
and point also to the general beach condition.
Sailing activities last summer had to be curtailed because of space
restrictions. We generally schedule at least two "invitational"
races and activities du:r>ingthe,'season,which, in past 'years" have
attracted sailers' from Corpus Christi, 'Houston and 'as far away as
Dallas. Had we scheduled these last summer, the .area woul!d not have
been adequate for the participants without encroaching on to the
swimming zone and encurring possible legal embarrasments to out-of-
town as well as in-town participants.
Sailing is a comparatively small activity in this.immediate coastal
area. We are trying to develop and encourage it. Although,the bay
area is "wide open", we believe it can readily be seen that little
or no consideration has been given to ,the launching needs of sail
boats. Truly the closest to being a "natural", is the area we have
been using prior to your zoning restrictions. Only 300 ft. as above
mentioned, would give us a new lease on our activities, and we
s€riously request that this be given.
,,,,"

CENTRAL COAST SAILING CLUB

FLOOD ,INSURANCE COMMITTEE OF CALHOUN COUNTY, TEXAS
May 11, 1972
To The Honorable Willis F. Jetton and
Members of the Commissioners Court of
Calhoun County, Texas
Re: Report of Flood Insurance Committee
Gentlemen:
Members of the Flood Insurance Committee appointed by Honorable I
Willis F. Jetton have made a detailed study of various aspects of
the National Flood Insurance Program and specifically its impact
upon the unincorporated areas of Calhoun County. It is the intent
I
C\l
CoO
......
co
u
u
I
I
337
of the committee to submit the following report as objectively
as possible without attempting to make any recommendation or de-
cision for the Commissioners Court.
Our committee was subdivided into eight subcommittees for the pur-
pose of studying specific aspects of the National Flood Insurance
Program and call upon the expertise of the various members of the
group to direct their talents toward areas in which they are eminent-
ly qualified. I attach herewith a copy of the various subcommittees
which also lists the questions asked of each subcommittee. To avoid
duplication, the questions will not be repeated in this report, only
a general response in answer to the questions propounded to each sub-
committee.
The Insurance Subcommittee found that the flood insurance policies
afford coverage for losses incurred as a result of partial or com-
plete inundation of normally dry land areas from the overflow of
inland or tidal waters or the unusual and rapid accumulation or run-
off or surface waters from any source. A single family dwelling,
according to recent publications issued by the National Flood Insur-
ance Administrator, can be insured for flood purposes up to $17,500.00.
Two to Four family dwelling units can be insured up to $30,000.00 per
dwelling. Contents coverage is afforded up to $5,000.00. Small
business coverage is afforded up to $30,000.00 per business. Content
coverage is the same as a private dwelling. This writer has been
orally advised by Richard W. Krimm, the Assistant Flood Insurance
Administrator, that the coverage for single family dwellings is to
be increased to $35,000.00 and the multiple unit dwellings up to
$60,000.00. The proposed increased coverage is not confirmed by any
publication of HUD or the Flood Insurance Administration,. Attached
to this letter is a schedule of the rates for flood insurance coverage.
The qualifications for enrollment in the National Flood Insurance Pro-
gram requires the governing body of the county to enact a land use and
control measure ordinance in compliance with statutory guidelines as
set forth in Section 1909 et. seq. of Title 24 - Housing and Housing
Credit, Chapter VII - Federal Insurance Administration, DHUD (36 F.R.
18175-86). Since Calhoun County is presently eligible for partici-
pation in the program until June 30, 1972, if you elect to continue
eligibility, you must enact such land use and control measure ordi-
nance and submit it for approval prior to June 30, 1972. Upon pas-
sage of such ordinance, any citizen in the unincorporated areas of
the county may purchase flood insurance through their local insur-
ance agent, provided that the individual complies with the land use
and control measure ordinance regarding future development or improve-
ments of his property. Existing dwellings would be eligible for
coverage without any alteration. The Home Insurance Company of Texas
administers the flood insurance program in Texas. Claims are submit-
ted basically the same as any other commercial type of coverage and
will be processed through General Adjustment Bureau.
The insurance contract contains a deductible clause that provides
for $200.00 or 2% of the amount of loss, whichever is greater. The
deductible applies to all contracts, thus if an individual purchases
insurance for a building and an additional contract for contents
coverage, the loss to the building would be subject to the $200.00 or
338'
2% deductible, and the contents would be subject to a like charge.
Therefore, in effect, for one who provides contents coverage,
there is a double deductible involved.
The Cost Impact Subcommittee found that there would very definitely
be an increase in construction cost of any structure'built in a
flood hazard area that would be required to comply with the land use I
and control measure ordinance, if enacted. Because the land use and
control measure ordinance would also effect the future development
of land, it. may well be that land located in the flood hazard areas
of the county will be greatly effected with regard to market value.
In the opinion of this subcommittee the price of land in such area
would be reduced.
The Loans and Subsidies Subcommittee talked to the Farmers Home Ad-
ministration, Small Business Administration, Federal Housing Ad-
ministration and Veterans Administration to determine whether or
not failure to enroll in the program would have any effect upon
future loans (private, commercial or residential loans) and disas-
ter relief or other Federal assistance. In each case each agency
informed this sub committee that failure to enroll in the flood
insurance program would not have any major bearing on financing
residential or commercial properties in Calhoun County, nor would
it prevent participation in Federal disaster relief assistance.
The local financial institutions were either represented on this
subcommittee or contacted by members of the subcommittee and it
was determined that failure to enroll in the flood insurance pro-
gram would not have any major bearing on financing of residential
or commercial property in Calhoun County by the local lending. I
ins ti tutions..
The Business and Industrial Subcommittee found that major business
and industry is not eligible for participation in the flood insur-
ance program, yet they must comply with the land use and control
measure ordinance in the event their improvements are located in
the designated flood hazard areas. . In the opinion of this sub-
committee, participation in the flood insurance program is designed
for the benefit of the small business and residents but could unduly
impede future industrial developments in the flood hazard areas of
the County. This subcommittee felt that the availability of National
flood insurance for employees of industry would definitely be a plus
factor to be considered by future industry or business development
in the county.
The General Benefits Subcommittee found that the following benefits
should be noted regarding participation in the Federal Flood In-
surance Program:
(1) Aid in financing.
(2) Aid in receiving Federal assistance after a hurricane
or other disaster.
'(3) Encourage development of the area through tourism,
upgrading of buildings or influx of persons planning retirement, it
being felt that the availability of flood insurance would attract
inlanders.
I
One of the subcommittees was asked to study and report on the dis-
advantages of the National Flood Insurance Program. The following
is a report of the Disadvantages Subcommittee:
(1) It appears that HUD has attempted to encompass
considerably more in the act than is probably required with resultant
hardship upon the enforcing g@vernmental agency and the individual
citizen.
I
C\l
CoO
......
co
u
u
I
I
339
(2) The 100-year flood average theory is a questionable
approach in an area such as our county when wind blown water con-
stitutes a greater hazard than flooding by rainfall.
(3) In certain flood hazard areas such as the Port
O'Connor area where the 100-year flood level is 12 feet above sea
level, and many areas of that community are 6 feet or less, the
land use and control measure ordinance would have the effect of
compelling new structures to be built on pilings. Erection on
pilings will not necessarily make the structures safe and wave
action hitting under the floor may cause more damage then flooding.
(4) The continuation of eligibility in the program
through an enactment of land use and control measure ordinance
will create additional expense to the county through enforcement
procedures, the issuance of building permits, inspection of new or
proposed construction and record keeping systems.
(5) In the event an existing dwelling suffers a loss,
for whatever cause, and the cost of replacement exceeds 50% of the
value of the original structure, then the improvement must comply
with the building requirements contained in the land use and control
measure ordinance, if it is located in a flood hazard area. The
alternative to this is to include a hardship provision in the land use
and control measure ordinance that states in effect that if compliance
in such case creates an undue hardship, then compliance is waived.
In each instance the facts would have to be examined by the enforcing
agency to establish whether or not a hardship would in fact exist.
If the hardship clause provision allows non-compliance in a particular
case, then the replacement improvement as well as the remaining exist-
ing structure must be "flood proofed" within the meaning of the flood
insurance act. This point is very nebulous in the act and may well be
open to a great deal of administrative determination in the future
and perhaps inconsistent rulings with the true intent of a hardship
clause. The 50% requirement could possibly eliminate replacement
structures in clood hazard areas, or cause abandonment.
(6) The greatest disadvantage sterns out of the require-
ment that, if the county is eligible for participation in the National
Flood Insurance Program, every individual in flood hazard areas of the
unincorporated portion of Calhoun County must comply with the land use
and control measure ordinance whether or not the individual desires to
purchase the flood insurance.
The Legal Aspects Subcommittee studied the enacting legislation in
detail and following is a synopsis of the legal requirements:
(1) The land use and control measure ordinance must contain
as a minimum the following:
(a) Consider glood plain management programs already
in effect in neighboring areas.
(b) Apply the effect of the land use and control
measure to all of the flood hazard areas of the
county as designated by the flood insurance
administrator.
(c) Give the land use and control measure ordinance
precedence over any conflicting laws, ordinances
or codes in the flood hazard areas.

Require building permits for. proposed con~
constructio~ or improvements 'in the 'flood ,
hazard areas.
t..:
(e)
. ~. .
Review building permit' applications for major
repairs in the fiood hazard 'area to determine
that the proposed repair (i) uses construction
materials and utility ~quipment resistent to
flood damage and (ii) uses construction methods
and practices designed to minimize flood damage.
I
(f) Rev;i.ew building permit applications for new
con~tru~tion or substantial improvements in the
flood hazard area to determine that the pro-
posed construction, including prefabricated and
mobile home~, is protected against flood damage,
is designed or modified and anchored to prevent
flotation, collapse or lateral movement of the
structures; uses construction materials and
utility equipment resistant to flood damage;
and uses construction methods and practices
designed to minimize flood damage.
(g) Review subdivision proposals and proposed new
developments to insure that such proposals
are consistent with the need to minimize flood
damage, and that all public utilities and
facilities are located, elevated and construct-
ed to minimize or eliminate flood damage and I
that adequate drainage is provided to reduce
exposure to flood hazards.
(h) Require new or replacement water supply sy-
stems and/or sewage systems to be designed to
minimize or eliminate infiltration of flood
waters and further require onsight waste dis-
posal systems to be located to avoid impair-
ment or contamination from them during periods
of flooding.
(i) Require new construction or substantial im-
provements of residential structures or non-
residential struc'tureswithin the flood hazard
area to have the lowest floor elevated to or
above the level of the 100-year flood average.
Attendant utility and sanitary facilities are
required to be flood proofed up to the level
of the 100-year flood average.
(2) The county will be required to include in this land
use and control measure ordinance some means of enforcement, such I
as through a building inspector charged with the responsibility of
reviewing each building permit application for proposed new con-
struction or improvements located in the flood hazard area.

(3) The basic act turns o~ elevations and as a result
proposed construction or improvements will have to include as a part
of the building permit application a determination of elevation from
sea level of the land upon which the proposed construction or improve-
ments are to be located.
(4) In the event of noncompliance by a citizen of the land
use and control measure ordinance provisions, the county will have to
include in its ordinance some type of penalty provision to encourage
and enforce compliance. Galveston and Brazoria Counties have enacted
such ordinances and they have included contempt proceedings for failure
to comply. I think there is a serious legal' question involved in at-
tempting to enforce the provisions of such ordinance through contempt
proceedings. It is the suggestion of the Legal Aspects Subcommittee
that in the event the court enacts such an ordinance, other enforcement
provisions be sought, such as a fine for violation.
(5) The only legal consequence for failure of the oounty
to maintain their eligibility in the National Flood Insurance Program
is that no one, after July 1, 1972, will be permitted to renew exist-
ing flood insurance policies nor will anyone be eligible to purchase
new coverage after that date.
(6) Title insurance policies will probably contain ex-
ceptions to compliance of any land use and control measure ordinance,
if enacted.
(7) Every individual in the designated flood hazard area
must comply with the land use and control measure ordinance regardless
of whether he desires to purchase the insurance or not.
It was felt by the General Committee that the citizens of the unin-
corporated areas should have an opportunity to voice their opinion re-
garding continued eligibility in the flood insurance program and the
Public Acceptance Subcommittee was designed to poll public opinion
about continued participation in the flood insurance program. This
subcommittee met with the citizens at the Olivia Community Center,
in Port O'Connor, Seadrift and Port Lavaca, in an attempt to objectively
present the pros and cons of participation in the program, give the
citizens a chance to hear about the program, ask questions about it and
express their opinions regarding future eligibility. Following is the
result of the polls taken at each of the meetings:

As initially stated, this committee makes no attempt to recommend ac-
ceptance or rejection of the National Flood Insurance Program. Through
the undersigned, the committee has intended t~ present the foregoing
report of its various subcommittees as objectively as possi~le, with no
intent of indicating personal preferences of the members of the committee
342
regarding continued participation in the program.

gation to determine and fix the maximum gross weight of vehicle, or
combination thereof, and load as well as the maximum axle and wheel
loads, to be transported or moved on, over or upon any county road,
bridge or culvert, at less than the maximum gross weight as fixed
by law, taking into consideration the width, condition and type of
pavement structures and other circumstances on such road, when it

iorate or destroy the roads, bridges or culverts along the parti-
cular road or highway sought to be protected; and

gation and having determined that lawful maximum weights as fixed

SKOGBERG DRAINAGE DITCH - PRECINCT NO. 3
Wayne Lindsey, Commissioner of Precinct No.3, reported to the
Court that he made a thorough search of the records and does not
find that Calhoun County has an easement on Skogberg Ditch.

berg Ditch and these easement are made to Calhoun - Victoria Soil
Cons'ervation District and not to Calhoun County; therefore,
Calhoun County has no easement on the Skogberg Ditch. The Court
asked the County Clerk to place these easement in a file marked
"Skogberg Ditch" in her office, and also enter into the Minutes
the following letter submitted by Commissioner Lindsey:

AIRPORT
I
County Judge Willis F. Jetton read a report of Mr. M. W. Cochran,
Consulting and Professional Engineer, concerning the failure in
the North end of the Northwest-Southeast runway at the Calhoun
County Airport. Judge Jetton also read a proposal submitted by
Mr. Cochran to do preliminary investigative work, prepare plans
and specifications and supervise construction needed to correct
the failure in the runway. .

PRELIMINARY REPORT ON THE INVESTIGATION OF RUNWAY FAILURES AT THE
CALHOUN COUNTY AIRPORT BASED UPON THE FIELD TESTS CONDUCTED THE
WEEK ENDING JULY 8, 1972.
July 9, 1972
As you County Commissioners know, the soils in this County are
generally highly plastic cohesive soils, and are subject to more
than about a five percent shrinkage. The soils at the airport I
are of this type and are in the high E 11 range of classification.
Good drainageois very important, since these soils become ex-
tremely soft when wet and lose stability, and when dry they
crack. They are subject to lift forces and detrimental movement
under varying moisture conditions.

Rapid runoff, of the surface water is highly important, and the sur-
faces from the edge of the runways and taxiways should be graded to
eliminate pockets or furrows where water collects between the paved
surfaces and the ditches which carry the water away. The slopes to
the ditches are adequate and the ditches appear to be efficient. In
general the quicker the surface water is carried away to the ditches
from the runways or taxiways, the less the chance of softening the
subbase. It is this treated clay subbase which carries and distributes
the load over the underlying clay soil.
Unfortunately, approximately 300 feet of the N.W. end of the primary
runway and the taxiway leading thereto did not get the full 12" com-
pacted 4% lime-clay subgrade, or subbase, and the full 6" compacted
shell-sand base course called for in the plans and specifications,
This is evidences by the tests made last week under the direction of
the writer.
Several factors could be responsible for these failures, such as lack
of chemical action between the clay and lime. Regardless of the cause
it is evident that the inspection and control of the materials being
processed and placed during construction was not adequate.
Samples of subgrade materials from the areas of failure have been taken
to a competent laboratory to determine the plasticity index of both
wet and dry clay treated subgrade materials.
The problem at this time is to correct the unsatisfactory condition of
the affected runway and taxiway, and to do so in the most practical
and economic manner feasible to get the runway back into operation.
Naturally the F. A. A.will require a full report on the conditions
disclosed and discussion of the corrective measures to be taken. This
contact srould be the next contact on the agenda. The, laboratory pro-
mised a report on their tests tomorrow the 11th, and this information
should be at,hand for the F. A. A. to study and appraise. After which
the costs of and the procedures of the corrective measures will be de-
termined and submitted to this,Court.
Respectfully submitted,
(s) M. W. Cochran
Consulting and Professional Engineer #7364
Motion by Commissioner Kabela, seconded by Commissioner Wedig, and
carried, that the proposal of Mr. Cochran to do preliminary investi-
gative work, prepare plans and specifications and supervise construction
on the Calhoun County Airport runway repair, be approved.

Such plans and specifications are to be approved by Federal Avia-
tion Administration
The portions of said airport above referred to are as follows:
I
1. Primary runway where, in the opinion of the Commissioners

measures.
My charges for such services will be as follows:

in order to be able to advise the Commissioners Court as to what
corrective measures need. to be taken, the sum of Fifteen Dollars

Dear Judge Jetton:
Thank you for your interest in Abbott Medical Electronics Co. and the
opportunity to discuss your monitoring needs. Attached you will find
a quotation based on your specifications. This letter should he con-
sidered an integral part of this quotation.
With the exception of the items listed below, all items will be
delivered by December 11, providing that your purchase order is re-
ceived by September 15. For each day beyond September IS, one day
must be added to the delivery date. The following items require 120
days for delivery, after receipt of the purchase order:
TL-l Time Delay Loop Recorder
L-Ol Tape Cartridge
Please consider the following features and advantages of the Abbott
system:
1) The primary advantage of the Abbott system is its ability to
transmit ahout 300 feet in most hospitals. This is accomplished
with a single dipole antenna.
2) The Abbott system is capable of transmitting diagnostic Qualitv
traces.
3) The Abbott system has excellent baseline stability in ambulatory
patients.
4) Our transmitter_is small and lightweight, and therefore easily
worn by the patient.
5)
Our patient cable is attached to the transmitter with a screw lock.
This eliminates a high percentage of false alarms since they are often
due to disconnected leads. Our patient cable also acts as an on-off
switch: transmitter 'on' when connected and 'off' when disconnected.
This serves two purposes: 1) eliminates patient accidentally
turning transmitter off and, 2) conserves battery life.
Of)

6) The battery life is five to seven davs.
7) We have a uniaue calibrate button at the signal input, through the
amplification circuits of the transmitter, through the receiver to
the graphic recorder. This is the only correct way to verify that
the recorder signal is properly calibrated.
TIle calibrate button is recessed to prevent accidental activation.
(However, it can be easily activated with a ballpoint pen or pencil).
8) The transmitter has "a battery check light. If it lights when the.
button is depressed, the batteries are good.
9) In addition, there is a "Low Battery" light on the receiver. If
this light goes on, the nurse knows that the batteries are good
for only another 30 to 40 minutes.
10) Defibrillation procedures will not damage our transmitter; the EKG
trace on our cardioscope recovers almost immediately.
The features of the Abbott systems are discussed in detail in the

SERVICE CAPABILITY
A. Minuteman-
A unique program whereb1 ELECTRODYNE has made it
posslble for a hospital to keep on hand "spare
modules". When a defective module Is detected, it
is replaced by the nursing staff, thus immediatel1
correcting the problem. I believe this to be the
flnest protection system available and recommend
it most highly.
B. Local-
A regional service facility is located in Houston
and headed by Mr. Don Ross. Mr. Ross works only
for ELECTRO DYNE and only on ELECTRO DYNE cardiac
monitorIng and resusltatlve eqUipment. He has had
extensive factory trainlng. A complete stock of
loan modules, printed circuit boards, and parts
are located at the office. In emergency situatlons,
loan modules are avallable through an efficient
delivery operation 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
C. Contract
Servlce- Communlcatlon Engineering Co. of Victoria Is a
contraot service agency for Electrodyne. They will
also be avallable for prompt efficient service.
J. Maintenance-' A maintenance contract is available after warranty.
It is administered by Mr. Rosa and included parts
~and labor for 10% of coat of equipment covered.
COMPLETE INSERVICE TRAINING TO HOSPITAL PERSONNEL WILL BE

Gentlemen:
I
Having encountered many problems in administering the Workmens
Compensation for the Hospital employees in a combined policy
with other county employees, the Hospital Board of Trustees re-
quest that favorable consideration be given, by the Commissioners
Court, to permit the hospital to secure Workmen '.s Compensation
on a policy separate from the other county employees.
This request is made with the knowledge that the rates and modi-
fier will remain the same as if on a combined policy, however,
it is desirable for administrative control and good business
practice to deal direct with the agency for record on claims,
payment of premiums and every day problems, that arise, in this com-
plicated field of employee's fringe benefits, that includes, loss
of income and medical expenses protection.
The coverage afforded the hospital employees will be the same as
the other county employees.

Dear Sir:
This is in reference to a speed zoning study of County Roads 306
and 307 made by our Traffic Engineer, Mr. Ben Bohuslav, on July
20, 1972. This speed zoning study was made in the company of
Mr. Wayne Lindsey the County Commissioner in Precinct 3.
It was concluded that due to the low volume of traffic along these
county roads, the normal speed survey counts were not practical,
Therefore, a general field review of these county roads was made.
The area adjacent to these two county roads is generally built up
with resident type dwellings. The county road is also too narrow
to accommodate high speed traffic; therefore, it was concluded by
our Traffic Engineer that a 35 MPH speed zone would be in the best
interest of traffic and pedestrian safety. This speed zone study
applies to both county road 306 and 307.
This if for your information, If we can be of further assistance
in this matter, please advise.
Sincerely yours,

Gentlemen:
I have received nUmerous complaints from the residents in the Port
Alto, Texas area concerning traffic on county roads 306 and 307
in that area. I have personally observed, on many occasions motor-
cycles and automobiles operating on this roads at speeds in excess
of 35 m. p. h.
~~30
I
.
.
!
There are many beach homes and permanent residences along these
roads and children play and walk up and down these roadways. Speeds
in excess of 35 m.p.h. are extremely hazardous to the residents
along this area and to other motor vehicle traffic on these roads.
In view of these conditions, I respectfully request the Commis-
sioners Court to establish a speed limit of 35 m.p.h. pn these
county roads.
Respectfully,

AN ORDER ALTERING THE MAXIMUM PRIMA
FACIA SPEED LIMIT ON CERTAIN COUNTY
ROADS IN THE PORT "ALTO AREA OF COM-
MISSIONER PRECINCT 113, OF CALHOUN.
COUNTY, TEXAS
On this the 15th day of Sept.;, 1972, the Commissioners' Court"of
Calhoun County, Texas, met in its regular session and among other
proceedings the following order was passed by said Court, to-wit:
WHEREAS, under Section 169 (a), Article 670ld of the Vernon's Texas
Civil Statutes, the Commissioners' Court of any county, with res-
pect to county highways or roads outside the limits of the right-
of-way of any officially designated or marked highway, road or
street of the State Highway System and outside the limits of any
incorporated city, town or village is authorized by order of the
County Commissioners' Court entered upon its records to alter maxi- I
mum prima facia speed limits upon the basis of an engineering
and traffic investigation as that delegated to the State Highway
~ystem; and
WHEREAS, this Court having obtained a report of Ben Bohuslav,
Traffic Engineer of the Texas Highway Dept. of his traffic investi-
gation and having heard the reports of certain law enforcement
agencies of Calhoun County, Texas, as to their investigation and
observations of the traffic on certain county maintained roads in
the Port Alto area of Commissioners' Precinct No.3, of Calhoun
County, Texas, and commonly known and designated as County Road
306 and County Road 307, and for a better description of the loca-
tion, reference is mad to County road map attached hereto and mark-
ed Exhibit "A"; and having determined from such reports that a
necessity exists to alter the maximum prima facia speed limit now
existing and that the speed of thirty-five (35) miles per hour
would be a reasonable and prudent speed for the circumstances
there existing;
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT ORDERED by the Commissioners' Court of Calhoun
County, Texas, that the maximum prima facie speed limit shall be
thirty-five (35) miles per hour on the above described county main- I
tained roads and all persons who drive a vehicle at a speed in ex-
cess of thirty-five (35) miles per hour on such roads shall be
prima facie evidence that the speed is not reasonable or prudent
and that it is unlawful; and upon conviction, are to be punished
as prescribed in Article 670ld, Vernon's Texas Civil Statutes and
this act shall become effective on the 15th day of September,1972.
Passed in open court this 15th day of September, 1972.

TEXAS COAST HU RR I CANE STU DY
MEETING NOTES FOR SEADRIFT AND PORT O'CONNOR
LOCALIZED PROTECTION
"
After Hurricane Carla in September 1961, it became apparent
that industrial, commercial, and residential development of
low areas along the Texas C~ast was occurring faster than
local hurricane flood protection measures could be provided. .
Also, it was apparent thatthe rapidly increasing occupation of
low, vulnerable areas for industrial and recreational develop-
mentwould lead to even greater pamages in the future. This
realization led to the Texas Coast Hurricane Study. The
primary purpose of the study is to investigate the feasibility
of elimin.ating or greatly reducing damages from hurricane
flooding for long reaches of the Texas Coast.
For study pu rposes, the Texas CoasLwaul.i.'Lide.dJniQ.5_parts,
each encompassing a major bay system. These areas, in the
order of study, are ~a.l!Leston Bay, M_q!Qgord~9Y, CO.!:.lllis
C.brj~tLBay, SabIIJ~..Lake, and LagLJna}~ad.r.Q,. The study for
each is scheduled in two phases. Ijrst._tb_ejeas.ibJJiJY.phase,
which consists of preliminary design, analysis, and eVuluation
of one or more protective systems for each study area, with

the results of this phase being used to determine whether or
not the second, or much more detai led, phase of the study
shou Id proceed. Ib.lue.toJld_RhClsill generally referred to as
tbEL~urvey st~91l' If results of the survey stage are faVorable
and if there is a reasonable assurance that required local
cooperation wou Id be provided, a report to the Congress may
be made recommending authorization of a Federal project.
I will describe briefly thntatus of our studies in each
area:
I. First, the Galveston Bay Area.- A feasibility study
has been completed which indicated that more detai led studies
were warranted. The second phase studies are now being made.
2.'The Matago[.d,a_B.iJY-!'!!J'la.- The feasibility report has
been completed. The comprehensiv.e-!yp.e sy"~!g,~_~y"as nQ.t
found to be ~mJ<;..allv iustified. We are now in the early
steps of the survey stage and are.ln\'.e..sJlgilli.ngJocCllized protection
for five areas. Two of the five are, of course, ?~~~.clr!ltg_n~~
Por:LQ~~onfl_qr. The others are Ealac.lQs, Jones Cree~ and I .
TyliJ~9rd'l.. They are the on Iy areas which indicated a need
for more detailed studies based on preliminary analyses. The
Matagorda Bay Feasibility Study will be discussed in detail
later.

3. The Corpus Christi Bay Area. -, Basic data
collection and preliminary evaluations for the feasibility
phase have begun.
4. Studies have not begu n in the Sabine Lake or the
Laguna Madre areas.
Matagorda Bay Area. - -The Matagorda Bay study area extends
from Freeport on the east to San Antonio Bay on the west,
a distance of about 90 mi les. It includes all of the Matagorda
Bay system and adjoining lowlands that are subject to hurricane
tidal flooding. One Of the alignments investigated for pro-
tecting this area is the Coastal Barrier Plan. It would
parallel the general Gulf shoreline from high ground west
of the San Bernard River to the westerly limits of the study
area where this levee was proposed to tie with the Coastal
Barrier levee for the Corpus Christi study area. As you see
from this chart, the Coastal Barrier levee would not provide
protection to the Jones Creek area. This was provided by a
separate system. I ncluding the separate system for Jones
Creek, the total first costs of construction for the Coastal
Barrier Plan were estimated at about $359 million. In order
to make an economic evaluation as to the merits of a project,
this first cost figure must be further broken down into average
3

Chart #3

Plan
annual charges over the expected life of the project. The
average annual charges represent the annual installment
sufficient to repay ihe total construction costs, with interest,
over the project life plus the estimated annual operating'and
maintenance costs. The project life used in all of the annual
figures that I mention today is assumed to be JillLy.ears. As
the benefits of a project are derived throughout its life, it is
necessary that the benefits also be stated on an average annual
basis for comparison purposes. We generally speak of this
comparison as the benefits-to-dost ratio, which is simply the
benefits divided by the costs. If this ratio is unity or greater
this indicates at least an equal return on the money invested
derived through savings in property damage, etc. The
annual charges for the Coastal Barrier Plan amounted to
approximately $23 million with annual benefits of only $5.3
million resulting in an unfavorable benefit-to-cost ratio of
0.2.
An Alternate Barrier Plan was also studied. This plan would
a Iso begi n on high ground west of the San Bernard River and
generally follow the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway to the City of
Matagorda. The alignment picks up again on high ground west
of the Colorado River and follows the GIWW to Matagorda Bay

and around the perimeter of Matagorda BilY, cutting off several
smaller bays, to Port O'Connor and along Espiritu Santo Bay
to high ground north of Seadrift. The total first cost of the
plan was estimated at about $280 million, with average annual
charges of about $17.8 million. The average annual benefits
estimated for this pial'! were about $5 million and the benefits-
to-cost ratio was 0.3.
With the unfavorable results of the two comprehensive plans,
study efforts were directed toward local protection plans for
the several cities and communities in the study area. These
",
studies were all of a preliminary nature, using available
topographic maps and other information considered reasonably
reliable. While the preliminary studies indicated benefits-to-
costs ratios near or greater than unity for all of the five
communities studies, it is possible, of course, that the more
accurate cost and benefit estimates obtained through the more
detai led studies might change the picture considerably.
Seadrif!. - The preliminary plan for protection of the Seadrift
area would provide for an earthen levee along the alignment
shown. The total length of the system would be about 55 miles
and about 1,300 acres would be protected from flooding by a
5

Standard Project Hurricane, which is the most severe that
might reasonably be expected. However, about 6D acres of
the protected area wou Id be required for ponding collected
rainfall. The statistical frequency of a Standard Project Hurricane
is difficult to predict but is considered to be considerably,in
excess of once in 100 years. This storm would exceed the
, , ,
intensity of Hurricane Carla.
Costs for Seadrift.- The levee section used in our preliminary
study is similar to that used in several hurricane flood pro-
tection projects now under construction. As shown here,
the slope exposed to hurricane surges and waves is I vertical
on 6 horizontal, for the protected side Ion 3. A 20 foot-wide
roadway on the levee crown wou Id provide access for maintenance
,equipment. Obviously, the levee would intercept existingpver-
land runoff and an interior collection channel would be
required to transfer the runoff to pumping plants where it
would be discharged through the levee. It appears that
2 pumping plants would be required to hold ,interior ponding to
a minimum. A rough estimate for construction of this system
is about 7.5 million dollars.

Port O'Connor. - The preliminary alignment for the protective
system investigated for the Port O'Connor area is shown on this
chart. The system consists of 4 mi les of earthen levees and
would protect about 500 acres from flooding by a Standard
Project Hurricane.
Costs for Port O'Connor. - Tile levee section for Port O'Connor
was the same as that investigated for Seadrift. Preliminary
analyses show that two pumping plants would be required to
contronhe limit of interior ponding to a minimum. A rough
estimate for constructipn of this system is about 4.5 million
dollars.
With more detai led studies, it might be that for some reaclles
in one or both cities, a wall section similar to one of these,
'would prove more economical and more functional than an
earthen levee section. 'Also; several types of seawall sections
along the shoreline could be investigated. ,However, from past
experience in constructing hurricane flood protection projects,
levee sections generally are less expensive than massive seawall
structures.

Benefits. - Rough estimates of. benefits for both systems were
based on:
(J) Prevention of hurricane flood damages to existing
and future urban development over the life of the project.
, (2) Reduction of public health and relief expenditures
resulting from hurri~anes.
(3) Enhancement of property values caused from the
reduction of the hurricane flood hazanl.
. 70-30, Federal-nan-Federal cost sharing principle would be
changed for these projects, Accordingly, local interests
would be required to provide the lands, easements, and rights-

of these items credited toward the 30 percent share.

the legal and financial capability_to provide the local cooperation
requirements in the construction, operation and maintenance
of the project works. Some examples of sponsoring agencies
are drainage districts, such as the Velasco Drainage District,
which is sponsoring the Freeport Hurricane Flood Protection
project, and County Commissioners Courts such as the
Galveston County Commissioners Court, which is sponsoring
the Texas City Hurricane Flood protection project.
Planning concepts.~ Several statements have been made
concerning benefit-cost ratios._However, this economic
comparison is only one of several "tests" a potential project
mustpas~. Each project must also be acceptable from engineer-
ing, environmental, and social standpoints. Treatment of
each of these factors wi II be made during the planning process
if detailed studies are undertaken.
After. receiving a letter of intent to provide local cooperation
requirements, we would schedule a public meeting (one of
threel to solicit the views of local citizens and groups as part
of a public involvement program. As the study progressed, we
