Police Chief Richardson reported on the barricades on Maple Avenue between 7th
and 8th Street and said he felt that the roll out signs were working out and
that at this time he saw no reason for change.
Councilman Rodeman reported also on the survey and the fact that he and the Police
Chief observed traffic at various hours during the time school was in session for
several days. He was asked at what hours the crossings were observed. Chief
Richardson stated it was the hours given to him by the school when the crossings
were in use.
Jim Webber, Principal of Palm School spoke up and said if the barricades were
installed again, should barricade the whole street, he is concerned that some
of the children at Palm School are going to be hit by a car and as such suggested
that barricades be replaced.
Fred Furnival, Superintendent of School District, spoke regarding this and brought
up the matter of the library now at the Palm School where more children are now
81 �,
crossing. Mr. Furnival again stated he felt that this matter should be brought
to a vote of the people.
Andy Chavez that 7th Street could be opened between Maple and Orange, if Maple
were closed.
Councilman Mason again stated that the Board of Fire Underwriters might not go
for this street to be closed because of the Fire Station and felt the fire
insurance rate might go up.
Dr. John Moore, of the School Board, spoke and said that because Maple presently
ends on 11th Street it is not a great asset where Palm is. He also feels a
complete barricade is the answer or even a partial barricade would make people
aware that this is a school zone.
Mr. Blackaby, 662 Maple, spoke again in opposition to this closure and asked
why Maple and not Orange. He also asked about the school parking lot near the
6th Street Football Field and felt it was also a hazard to children who play in
it, and bus loading on 6th Street.

since school opened the children have been boarding the buses on the Magnolia
side.

the second meeting in October.

of removing barricades and pedestrian signs.

Dr. Pomeroy presented his report at this time showing a heavily over - loaded condi-
tion at the Plant. Dr. Pomeroy stated that Mr. McAnally of Poultry Processors had
met with him and Mr. Ward recently in Mr. Ward's office. Several items were dis-
cussed, among them the following: 1. Beaumont Poultry (Poultry Processors) pay
for installation of vault to be on public property; 2. 200 mg /l in original Condi-
tional Use Permit considered too low; 3, :trunk sewer capacity; 4. install chlor-
inator pending expansion of disposal plant, possibly Poultry Plant would help with
the cost.
City Manager Ward asked what could be done at this time to reduce the B.O.D. level
at the disposal plant.
Recommended 300 mg /l in the Sewer Ordinance for an industry, industry pay the amount
necessary to take care of excess B.O.D., could construct a large additional trick-
ling filter approximately $250,000 or could construct a large basin to aerate the
sewage by oxidation.
Councilman Rodeman felt that the Federal Aid Grant should be looked into. Mayor
Haskell :mentioned that there was to be a decision made on this matter. ow
Mr. McAnally spoke at this time and said they would cooperate with the City when-
ever feasible, suggested a number of things that could be done at the meeting with
Dr. Pomeroy and City Manager Ward. Have agreed to cooperate in some manner to
treat the solids down stream. Said they }.seed more time.
Mayor Haskell stated that because the Poultry Plant is contributing about twice as
much as the people of Beaumont, have to take action one way or the other.
Mr. Zasadzi_nski of the Water Quality Control Board : nentioned that the increased flow
has reached Highway 60, will need disinfectant equipment.
Mr. Zasad:zinski also said that the Poultry Plant does contribute to the overflow
at the Disposal Plant, also stated that there are weak points that need upgrading
at the Disposal Plant, amon them: 1. By -pass line; 2. Removal of sludge; 3.
Barminutor; 4. Chlorinate the effluent which ups the cost. If effluent comes
within a 1/2 mile of the highway, it needs chlorination.
City Manager Ward suggested that Dr. Pomeroy prepare minimum requirements and costs
and present it to the Council at their next meeting. It was suggested that a
sampling vault be installed.
Regarding the chlorinator which costs approximately $2,619 - Mr. McAnally of
Beaumont Poultry (Poultry Processors) had stated he would agree to advance the rr
amount of the chlorinator and that said amount would become a credit on any sewer
charges set up for the Poultry Plant.
It was stated that there should be estimates on what it takes, what has to be done,
what needs to be done at the Disposal Plant and the Federal Funds available.
Councilman Rodeman made a motion, seconded by Councilman Hightower: That Dr.
Pomeroy report back within two weeks what is required -to be done at the Disposal
Plant and cost_ estimates.
Ayes: Councilman Rodeman, Mason, Valdivia, Hightower and Haskell.
Noes: None.
Absent: None.
Councilman Rodeman made a motion, seconded by Councilman Mason: That Beaumont
Poultry (Poultry Processors) advance the amount of money necessary to install a
Chlorinator at the Sewage Treatment Plant and that they be given credit amortized
over a three year period on tizeir Sewer charges.
Ayes: Councilman Rodeman, Mason, Valdivia, Hightower and Haskell.'
Noes: None.
Absent: None.
It was the conceasus of the Council that any such installation must have prior
approval of Dr. Pomeroy. Water Quality Control Board will accept his decision.
Mr. Zasadzinski wished to state again that there were many things recommended by �r
the Water Quality Control Board regarding repairs at the Disposal Plant which
were supposed to have been done Bach as the installation of a Chlorinator, work
on the Barminutor, were promised and have never been done.

City Treasurer Allie Obarr presented her report of interest earned on time deposits
showing a total of $3,940;80 earned to date. $8,653.65 received in Sanitation
Accounts.
At this time, Dr. Pomeroy proceeded with his report on the increases needed to be
done at the Sewage Treatment Plant regarding the additional load placed on it by
the Poultry Plant. No. 1 - Chlorinator installation at $5,800.00 total cost,
this is with an automatic control and outlet structure i-astalled. No. 2 - Consi-
deration for enlarging plant with oxidation basin to pre- treat. Total cost of
all installations which includes sludge beds, control building, plant enlarge,
ments including chlorinator is $87,000.00. The sludge beds, control building
come to $25,000.00 which the City would have to do regardless. The Plant enlarge-
ment including the chlorinator due to the Poultry Plant comes to $62,000.00;
making a total of $87,000. Dr. Pomeroy stated there is a possibility of a
Federal Grant of about $50,000.
Councilman Mason said he felt the City should make a decision and as long as this
one industry is causing the trouble, the best thing would be to close it up until
it is remed_ed.
Dr. Pomeroy was then asked how long it would take on a Federal Grant, he said
about six months, should get the chlorinator in, then apply for the Grant.
Mr. Sherman of the Poultry Plant spoke and :mentioned that with a Federal Grant,
$30,000 of the cost of the improvements could be shared by the City and Plant -
$10,000 by the City and $20,000 by the Plant; balance of the improvement by a
Federal Grant.
Mayor Haskell stated this would be an increase in the cost of operating the Plant,
also increase should be charged to the Plant on flow.
Dr. Pomeroy stated it could be a year before we would hear from the Federal Govern-
ment on whether a grant would be given or at the least, six months. If plans were
ready for approval, improvements could be constructed in less than a year.
Mayor Haskell then asked about when the chlorinator would get in. Dr. Pomeroy said
-it would take about a month to six weeks to get it in.
Dr. Pomeroy recommended that the Poultry Plant deposit- "$6,000 to cover the cost of
the chlorinator, and go ahead with the chlorinator installation.
Mayor Haskell suggested that as soon as we can get the deposit, City Manager Ward
to contact Dr. Pomeroy to order the chlorinator.
Councilman Roderlan made a motion, seconded by Councilman Mason: That as soon as
Poultry Processors (Beaumont Poultry) comes up with a committment of $6,000 towards

and City Clerk regarding the termination order of the Poultry Plant's Condi-
tional Use Permit issued May 26th, 1970. Mayor Haskell read proposed letter
to be sent to Poultry Processors, Inc. allowing them to continue, however,
because of problems which have arisen, this letter will not be adequate.

to the work previously mentioned that Poultry Processors will have to do. Need
larger sewer mains installed, increase from 12" to about 15 ", cost about $15.00
per foot, total of 2400 feet to be replaced.

regulations.

that it would.
City Attorney Berk asked whether it was economically feasible for Poultry Plant to
spend approximately $100,000 on improvements so the City's Sewage Treatment Plant
could handle them.
Mr. McAnally suggested installation of a 4" line instead - will be pumped from
Poultry Plant directly to Sewer Plant. It was felt this could possibly help.
It was recommended that City Manager Ward meet with Dr. Pomeroy, City Attorney
to draft proposed new regulations for Conditional Use Permit to Poultry Proces-
sors, Inc.
City Manager Ward stated there should be a time limit set reference installation
of the screens, chlorinator, etc.
Mr. McAnally suggested manhole be inspected periodically about every Monday
morning. City Manager said this could be arranged.
As for time limit, would be set reference preliminary items that are required.

interim.
Mr. McAnally said he is willing to go to work on the screens in the .corning.

screens by Wednesday.

Permit with the cooperation of Mr. McAnally with periodic inspections by the Sewer

hydraulic charge included in Sewer Use Ordinance, would hope that if the City
adopts this ordinance, Poultry Processors will go ahead and do things that they

out with the City.

sewer if they were not connected to the sewer and that is why they felt the sewer
use charge would be the fairest.
