DESCRIPTION:
On October 25, 1975 (M&C C-3219), the City Council authorized the City
Manager to execute an agreement providing that the City of Fort Worth join
with the City of Dallas, the North Texas Municipal Utility District and the
Trinity River Authority of Texas in the formation and operation of the Upper
Trinity River Basin Water Quality Compact (Compact). The members share
equally in the cost of operation of the Compact's programs. The City of Fort
Worth has participated in the Compact since the group's inception. The
Compact agreement was renewed in 1986 to allow for continued participation
for an additional 10 -year period.
The primary purpose of the Compact has been and continues to be to insure
that a water quality sampling program is established and maintained, which
seeks to provide reliable data on the quality of the streams of the Trinity
River in the North Central Texas area. The facilities and expertise of the
USGS are used to gather this water quality data. This ongoing program allows
the effect of both point and non -point sources of pollution to be determined
and evaluated.
Individual agreements have been prepared for each Compact member. The City's
share of the cost pertaining to gathering of Water Quality data by USGS for
the fiscal year, October 1, 1990 to September 30, 1991, is $26,690. The USGS
and others will contribute to the program cost as follows:

Council Member Chappell made a motion, seconded by Council Member Garrison, that
the recommendation, as contained as in Mayor and Council Communication No. G-8937 be
adopted. When the motion was put to a vote by the Mayor, it prevailed unanimously.
There was presented Mayor and Council Communication No. G-8938 from the City
Manager stating that the City Council approved $66,500.00 of the $900,000.00 allocated

Heights MPC expansion for a contract with Pruett and Gideon for project design; that
the City Council amended the design contract and increased the total contract amount to
$75,000.00; that the clinic is scheduled to be completed by December 31, 1990; that the
Health Department has submitted to Housing and Human Services a list of furnishings and
equipments needed for the clinic to coordinate through the Purchasing Division; that
CDBG regulations require the separation of structural fixtures and furnishings not

not negate the need for other sources of funding for the dental clinic in the next
budget.
Council Member Garrison made a motion, seconded by Council Member Chappell, that
the recommendation, as contained in Mayor and Council Communication No. G-8938 be
adopted. When the motion was put to a vote by the Mayor, it prevailed unanimously.

SUBJECT: TRANSFER OF GRANT OF PRIVILEGE FOR TAXICAB OPERATIONS FROM FORT
WORTH CAB AND BAGGAGE COMPANY TO YELLOW CHECKER CAB COMPANY OF
DALLAS/FORT WORTH, INC.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council consent to and approve the transfer
of the Grant of Privilege for taxicab operations from Fort Worth Cab and
Baggage Company to Yellow Checker Cab Company of Dallas/Fort Worth, Inc.
nT S('IIS-qTnN
Fort Worth Cab and Baggage Company operates the largest taxicab fleet in the
City. The business was established in the 1940's and has operated under
different trade names, including "Yellow Cab", "Checker Cab", and "Yellow
Checker Cab". The company is locally owned and operated. Fort Worth Cab and
Baggage is one of only two companies with a franchise to operate a taxicab
business within Fort Worth. The franchise, in effect through 1995,
authorizes the company to operate up to two hundred fifty taxis, but the
company is presently operating about one hundred. In addition to Fort Worth,
Fort Worth Cab and Baggage also serves the Dallas/Fort Worth Regional
Airport, Arlington and a majority of the other cities in Tarrant County.

The president of Fort Worth Cab and Baggage is Mr. Jim Richards.
Mr. Richards is also the president of Dallas Yellow Cab. He recently had the
license to service Dallas transferred to his newly formed corporation, Yellow
Checker Cab Company of Dallas/Fort Worth, Inc. Mr. Richards, in the attached
correspondence, requests the City of Fort Worth to allow him to transfer the
franchise of Fort Worth Cab and Baggage to his new company. As he explains,
the consolidation of his taxicab businesses into one corporation will improve
his ability to provide service and establish an accurate marketing identity.
The new corporation will operate approximately three hundred fifty taxicabs
to serve the entire metroplex.
Section 34-140 of the Fort Worth City Code states:
"No franchise or grant of privilege made under the terms of this article
shall be transferable without the formal consent and approval of the
City Council after proper application made thereto. If the City Council
deems it necessary or advisable after receipt of such an application for
permission to transfer such grant, then it may make or order to be made
such investigation as it deems necessary to satisfy itself that the
proposed transferee is a fit and proper person to conduct such business,
that the transferee is financially able to conduct such business and to
pay any claims for damages which might be asserted against him by virtue
of the operation of such taxicabs, and that the operation of such
business by the transferee will be beneficial to the general public in
the City. (Code 1986, §34-6)"
Since assuming the operations of Fort Worth Cab and Baggage in 1985,
Mr. Richards and the City staff have had a good working relationship. The
City staff is familiar with Mr. Richards' operation and is satisfied that, in
accordance with Section 34-140 of the City Code, the proposed transferee is
fit and proper to conduct such business, that the transferee is financially
able to conduct such business and to pay any claims for damages which might
be asserted against it by virtue of the operation of such taxicabs, and that
the operation of such business by the transferee will be beneficial to the
general public in the City. Accordingly, the City staff recommends the
approval of the requested transfer.
M&C G-8939 adopted ll It was the consensus of the City Council that the recommendation, as contained in Mayor
and Council Communication No. G-8939, be adopted.

22.011(d) when the victim is over age 14 and is deemed "promiscuous"; to
eliminate a defense from prosecution of rape under Section 22.011(e) when the
victim is less than 2 years younger than the assailant; to raise the penalty

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1990
MAC G-8940 cont. On motion of Council Member Gilley, seconded by Council Member Chappell, the
1991 Legislative recommendations, as contained in Mayor and Council Communication No. G-8940, were
Program approved. The City of Fort Worth Legislative Policy No. 17 is as follows:
RELATING TO CHANGES IN PENAL CODE FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
I. BACKGROUND
The annual report issued by the Fort Worth Commission on the Status of Women
in September 1990 cited a report indicating that sexual assault in this
country is rising and has reached alarming levels. According to a July 16,
1990 Newsweek report, sixteen women confront a rapist every hour. In the
United States, a rape occurs every six minutes. The United States has a rape
rate nearly four times higher than Germany, thirteen times higher than Great
Britain, and more than 20 times higher than Japan.
Closer to home during 1989, the Woman's Center of Tarrant County, Inc. Rape
Crisis Program provided services to 616 individuals who reported an offense
that could be classified as sexual assault. The Fort Worth Police Department
monthly crime statistics for 1990 through October indicate 373 reported cases
of rape.
The current Texas laws allow for a defense to prosecution of rape in certain
cases, making it difficult in some cases to try and convict assailants.
Certain revisions need to be undertaken to provide for prosecution and to
deter the incidence of rape.
Another area of concern that affects primarily women is domestic or family
violence. For 1990 through October, the Fort Worth Police Department has
logged 3,840 domestic violence assault reports. This is estimated to be only
a fraction of the actual incidences occurring throughout the city. Current
law does not provide for adequate enforcement measures to protect women when
violence erupts in the household. Violation of protective orders only
warrants a misdemeanor offense and needs to be changed. Court mandated
treatment for the batterer may be an avenue in addressing the problem of
domestic violence.
II. POLICY
The City of Fort Worth supports legislation that will deter the incidence of
rape and will address concerns in the area of domestic violence.
Specifically, changes in the Penal Code are supported to remove the spousal
exemption for sexual assault; to eliminate a defense from prosecution of rape
under Section 22.011(d) when the victim is over age 14 and is deemed
"promiscuous"; to eliminate a defense from prosecution of rape under Section
22.011(e) when the victim is less than 2 years younger than the assailant; to
raise the penalty of violation of a Protective Order to a third degree
felony; to include the "battered woman" defense as established by case law
into the Penal Code; and to mandate court enforced treatment for the batterer
in domestic violence cases.
III. IMPACT
No specific fiscal impact is identified with the proposed legislation.
IV. SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION
The Fort Worth Commission on the Status of Women will seek legislation to
address the concerns of this policy proposal. Currently the Commission is
seeking endorsements and sponsorships of the legislative bills that will be
introduced in Austin.

(b) The entity in whose name any Series 1990 Bond shall be
registered in the Registration Books at any time shall be treated as the
absolute owner thereof for all purposes of this Ordinance, whether or not
such bond shall be overdue, and the City and the Paying Agent/Registrar shall
not be affected by any notice to the contrary; and payment of, or on account
of, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on any such bond shall be
made only to such registered owner. All such payments shall be valid and
effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability upon such bond to the extent
of the sum or sums so paid.
(c) The City hereby further appoints the Paying Agent/Registrar to
act as the paying agent for paying the principal of and interest on the
Series 1990 Bonds, and to act as its agent to exchange or replace Series 1990
Bonds, all as provided in this Ordinance. The Paying Agent/Registrar shall
keep proper records of all payments made by the City and the Paying
Agent/Registrar with respect to the Series 1990 Bonds, and of all exchanges
thereof, and all replacements thereof, as provided in this Ordinance.
(d) Each Series 1990 Bond may be exchanged for fully registered
bonds in the manner set forth herein. Each bond issued and delivered
pursuant to this Ordinance, to the extent of the unredeemed principal amount
thereof, may, upon surrender thereof at the principal corporate trust office
of the Paying Agent/ Registrar, together with a written request therefor duly
executed by the registered owner or the assignee or assignees thereof, or its
or their duly authorized attorneys or representatives, with guarantee of
signatures satisfactory to the Paying Agent/Registrar, at the option of the
registered owner or such assignee or assignees, as appropriate, be exchanged
for fully registered bonds, without interest coupons, in the form prescribed
in the FORM OF BOND set forth in this Ordinance, in the denomination of
$5,000, or any integral multiple of $5,000 (subject to the requirement
hereinafter stated that each substitute bond shall have a single stated
maturity date), as requested in writing by such registered owner or such
assignee or assignees, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the
unredeemed principal amount of any Series 1990 Bond or Series 1990 Bonds so
surrendered, and payable to the appropriate registered owner, assignee, or
assignees, as the case may be. If a portion of any Series 1990 Bond shall be
redeemed prior to its scheduled maturity as provided herein, a substitute
bond or bonds having the same maturity date, bearing interest at the same
rate, in the denomination or denominations of any integral multiple of $5,000
at the request of the registered owner, and in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the unredeemed portion thereof, will be issued to the registered
owner upon surrender thereof for cancellation. If any Series 1990 Bond or
portion thereof is assigned and transferred, each bond issued in exchange
therefor shall have the same principal maturity date and bear interest at the
same rate as the bond for which it is being exchanged. Each substitute bond
shall bear a letter and/or number to distinguish it from each other bond.
The Paying Agent/Registrar shall exchange or replace Series 1990 Bonds as
provided herein, and each fully registered bond or bonds delivered in
exchange for or replacement of any Series 1990 Bond or portion thereof as
permitted or required by any provision of this Ordinance shall constitute one
of the Series 1990 Bonds for all purposes of this Ordinance, and may again be
exchanged or replaced. It is specifically provided, however, that any Series
1990 Bond delivered in exchange for or replacement of another Series 1990
Bond prior to the first scheduled interest payment date on the Series 1990
Bonds (as stated on the face thereof) shall be dated the same date as such
Series 1990 Bond, but each substitute bond so delivered on or after such
first scheduled interest payment date shall be dated as of the interest
payment date preceding the date on which such substitute bond is delivered,
unless such substitute bond is delivered on an interest payment date, in
which case it shall be dated as of such date of delivery; provided, however,
that if at the time of delivery of any substitute bond the interest on the
bond for which it is being exchanged has not been paid, then such substitute
bond shall be dated as of the date to which such interest has been paid in
full. On each substitute bond issued in exchange for or replacement of any
Series 1990 Bond or Series 1990 Bonds issued under this Ordinance there shall
be printed thereon a Paying Agent/Registrar's Authentication Certificate, in
the form hereinafter set forth in the FORM OF BOND set forth in this
Ordinance. An authorized representative of the Paying Agent/Registrar shall,
before the delivery of any such substitute bond, date such substitute bond in
the manner set forth above, and manually sign and date such Certificate, and
no such substitute bond shall be deemed to be issued or outstanding unless
such Certificate is so executed. The Paying Agent/Registrar promptly shall
cancel all Series 1990 Bonds surrendered for exchange or replacement. No
additional ordinances, orders, or resolutions need be passed or adopted by

an assigned and transferred bond or bonds or any portion or portions thereof
in any integral multiple of $5,000, and in the case of the exchange of the
unredeemed portion of a Series 1990 Bond which has been redeemed in part
prior to maturity, as provided in this Ordinance, such fees and charges will
be paid by the City. In addition, the City hereby covenants with the
registered owners of the Series 1990 Bonds that it will (i) pay the
reasonable and standard or customary fees and charges of the Paying
Agent/Registrar for its services with respect to the payment of the principal

7. That a special fund or account, to be designated the "City of
Fort Worth, Texas Series 1990 Bonds Interest and Redemption Fund" is hereby
created and shall be established and maintained by said City at its official
depository bank. Said Interest and Redemption Fund shall be kept separate
and apart from all other ,funds and accounts of said City, and shall be used
only for paying the interest on and principal of the Series 1990 Bonds. All
taxes levied and collected for and on account of the Series 1990 Bonds shall

unpaid, the City Council of said City shall compute and ascertain the rate
and amount of ad valorem tax, based on the latest approved tax rolls of said
City, with full allowances being made for tax delinquencies and costs of tax
collections, which will be sufficient to raise and produce the money required

to provide a sinking fund to pay the principal of the Series 1990 Bonds as
such principal matures, but never less than 2% of the original principal
amount of the Series 1990 Bonds as a sinking fund each year. Said rate and
amount of ad valorem tax is hereby ordered to be levied and is hereby levied
against all taxable property in said City for each year while any of the
Series 1990 Bonds is outstanding and unpaid, and said ad valorem tax shall be
assessed and collected each such year and deposited and deposited to the

Series 1990 Bond, as the case may be. In every case of damage or mutilation
of a Series 1990 Bond, the applicant shall surrender to the Paying
Agent/Registrar for cancellation the Series 1990 Bond so damaged or

event any such Series 1990 Bond shall have matured, and no default has

redemption premium, if any, or interest on the Series 1990 Bond, the City may
authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the

enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this
Ordinance equally and proportionately with any and all other Series 1990

11. The Issuer covenants to take any action to assure, or refrain
from any action which would adversely affect, the treatment of the Series
1990 Bonds as obligations described in section 103 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (the "Code"), the interest on which is not includable in the
"gross income" of the holder for purposes of federal income taxation. In
furtherance thereof, the Issuer covenants as follows:
(a) to take any action to assure that no more than 10 percent of
the proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds (less amounts deposited to a reserve
fund, if any) are used for any "private business use," as defined in section
141(b)(6) of the Code or, if more than 10 percent of the proceeds are so
used, that amounts, whether or not received by the Issuer, with respect to
such private business use, do not, under the terms of this Ordinance or any
underlying arrangement, directly or indirectly, secure or provide for the
payment of more than 10 percent of the debt service on the Series 1990 Bonds,
in contravention of section 141(b)(2) of the Code;
(b) to take any action to assure that in the event that the
"private business use" described in subsection (a) hereof exceeds 5 percent
of the proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds (less amounts deposited into a
reserve fund, if any) then the amount in excess of 5 percent is used for a
"private business use" which is "related" and not "disproportionate," within
the meaning of section 141(b)(3) of the Code, to the governmental use;
(c) to take any action to assure that no amount which is greater
than the lesser of $5,000,000, or 5 percent of the proceeds of the Series
1990 Bonds (less amounts deposited into a reserve fund, if any) is directly
or indirectly used to finance loans to persons, other than state or local
governmental units, in contravention of section 141(c) of the Code;
(d) to refrain from taking any action which would otherwise
result in the Series 1990 Bonds being treated as "private activity bonds"
within the meaning of section 141(b) of the Code;
(e) to refrain from taking any action that would result in the
Series 1990 Bonds being "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of section
149(b) of the Code;
(f)
to refrain
from using any portion of
the proceeds of the
Series 1990
Bonds, directly
or indirectly, to acquire
or to replace funds
which were
used, directly
or indirectly, to acquire investment property (as
defined in
section 148(b)(2)
of the Code) which produces
a materially higher
yield over
the term of the
Series Bonds, other than
investment property
acquired with
--
(1) proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds invested for a reasonable
temporary period of 3 years or less until such proceeds are needed for the
purpose for which the bonds are issued,
(2) amounts invested in a bona fide debt service fund, within the
meaning of section 1.103-13(b)(12) of the Treasury Regulations, and
(3) amounts deposited in any reasonably required reserve or
replacement fund to the extent such amounts do not exceed 10 percent of the
proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds;
(g) to otherwise restrict the use of the proceeds of the Series
1990 Bonds or amounts treated as proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds, as may be
necessary, so that the Bonds do not otherwise contravene the requirements of
section 148 of the Code (relating to arbitrage) and, to the extent
applicable, section 149(d) of the Code (relating to advance refundings);

Ordinance No.(h) to pay to the United States of America at least once during
each five-year period (beginning on the date of delivery of the Series 1990
10738 cont. Bonds) an amount that is at least equal to 90 percent of the "Excess
Earnings", within the meaning of section 148(f) of the Code and to pay to the
United States of America, not later than 60 days after the Series 1990 Bonds
have been paid in full, 100 percent of the amount then required to be paid as
a result of Excess Earnings under section 148(f) of the Code; and
(i) to maintain such records as will enable the Issuer to fulfill
its responsibilities under this section and section 148 of the Code and to
retain such records for at least six years following the final payment of
principal and interest on the Series 1990 Bonds.
It is the understanding of the Issuer that the covenants contained herein are
intended to assure compliance with the Code and any regulations or rulings
promulgated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury pursuant thereto. In the
event that regulations or rulings are hereafter promulgated which modify, or
expand provisions of the Code, as applicable to the Series 1990 Bonds, the
Issuer will not be required to comply with any covenant contained herein to
the extent that such modification or expansion, in the opinion of
nationally -recognized bond counsel, will not adversely affect the exemption
from federal income taxation of interest on the Series 1990 Bonds under
section 103 of the Code. In the event that regulations or rulings are
hereafter promulgated which impose additional requirements which are
applicable to the Series 1990 Bonds, the Issuer agrees to comply with the
additional requirements to the extent necessary, in the opinion of
nationally -recognized bond counsel, to preserve the exemption from federal
income taxation of interest on the Series 1990 Bonds under section 103 of the
Code. In furtherance of such intention, the City hereby authorizes and
directs the Mayor, the City Manager and the Director of Finance to execute
any documents, certificates or reports required by the Code, and to make such
elections on behalf of the City which may be permitted by the Code as are
consistent with the purpose for the issuance of the Series 1990 Bonds.
In order to facilitate compliance with the above covenants (g), (h),
and (i), a "Rebate Fund" is hereby established by the City for the sole
benefit of the United States of America, and such Fund shall not be subject
to the claim of any other person, including without limitation the
bondholders. The Rebate Fund is established for the additional purpose of
compliance with section 148 of the Code.
12. Interest earnings derived from the investment of proceeds from
the sale of the Series 1990 Bonds shall be used along with other bond
proceeds for the construction of the permanent improvements set forth in
Section 1 hereof for which the Series 1990 Bonds are issued; provided that
after completion of such permanent improvements, if any of such interest
earnings remain on hand, such interest earnings shall be deposited in the
Interest and Redemption Fund. It is further provided, however, that any
interest earnings on bond proceeds which are required to be rebated to the
United States of America pursuant to Section 11 hereof in order to prevent
the Series 1990 Bonds from being arbitrage bonds shall be so rebated and not
considered as interest earnings for the purposes of this Section.
13. The Series 1990 Bonds initially shall be issued and delivered
in such manner that no physical distribution of the Series 1990 Bonds will be
made to the public, and the Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), New York, New
York, initially will act as depository for the Series 1990 Bonds. DTC has
represented that it is a limited purpose trust company incorporated under the
laws of the State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a
"clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial
Code, and a "clearing agency" registered under Section 17A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the City accepts, but in no way
verifies, such representations. The Series 1990 Bonds initially authorized
by this Ordinance shall be delivered to and registered in the name of CEDE &
CO., the nominee of DTC. It is expected that DTC will hold the Series 1990
Bonds on behalf of the Purchaser and its participants. So long as each
Series 1990 Bonds is registered in the name of CEDE & CO., the Paying
Agent/Registrar shall treat and deal with DTC the same in all respects as if
it were the actual and beneficial owner thereof. It is expected that DTC
will maintain a book -entry system which will identify ownership of the Series
1990 Bonds in integral amounts of $5,000, with transfers of ownership being
effected on the records of DTC and its participants pursuant to rules and
regulations established by them, and that the Series 1990 Bonds initially
deposited with DTC shall be immobilized and not be further exchanged for
substitute Series 1990 Bonds except as hereinafter provided. The City is not
responsible or liable for any functions of DTC, will not be responsible for
paying any fees or charges with respect to its services, will not be
responsible or liable for maintaining, supervising, or reviewing the records
of DTC or its participants, or protecting any interests or rights of the
beneficial owners of the Series 1990 Bonds. It shall be the duty of the DTC

adopted There was presented Mayor and Council Communication No. C-12636 from the City
M&C C-12636 re Manager, as follows:
approved amendment
to Fire Protection SUBJECT: AMENDMENT TO BENBROOK FIRE PROTECTION CONTRACT
Contract with 11
City of Benbrook II
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve an amendment to the fire
protection contract with the City of Benbrook as outlined below in order to
clarify the level of service to be provided Benbrook by the Fort Worth Fire
Department.
DISCUSSION:
On October 2, 1990, City Council approved a contract to provide fire
protection service to the City of Benbrook (M&C C-12547). Attachment "C" of
that contract defined the level of service to be provided Benbrook as:
Level 4 The nearest one company response to fire
emergencies and motor vehicle accidents.
This level does not include emergency medical
services except for those initial actions
that may be necessary at a motor vehicle
accident. The cost of Level 4 service is 20%
of the full per capita cost of Fort Worth
fire protection.
When the service areas for Stations 23 and 30 were consolidated, it was
intended that the personnel assigned to those stations would be available to
respond to the area being covered under the contract. The personnel assigned
to these two stations constitute what the Fire Department generally refers to
as a "one -alarm" assignment to those stations. The direction and control of
a Fort Worth Incident Commander and a one -alarm assignment is the minimum
effort that would provide reasonable safety to firefighters and provide a
resource to quickly control a fire.
In addition, the contract fails to mention that in the event resources are
required above and beyond those available under a one -alarm response, the
City of Benbrook would be asked to respond with personnel and equipment.
In an effort to address these concerns, the following amendment to the level
4 service definition is proposed:
Level 4 Nearest one -alarm assignment. For this level
of service the Fire Department will respond
the nearest one -alarm assignment, which
includes, on average, two (2) pump companies,
one (1) ladder company, and one (1) District
Chief. This level of service does not
include emergency medical first responder
service or hazardous materials response.
This level of service also requires the
contracting city to supplement the fireground
resources by responding up to all available
fire personnel and apparatus when requested
by the Fort Worth Fire Commander. Such
supplemental resources will work under the
direction of the Fort Worth Fire Department
District Chief or Incident Commander. Level
4 service is 20% of the per capita cost of
Fort Worth fire protection.
Adoption of this amendment would assure that Benbrook would commit its own
fire resources to any incident occurring in the service area based on
requests by the Fort Worth Fire Department and improve the safety of Fort
Worth firefighters responding to incidents in the Benbrook service area.

Dear Honorable Mayor Bolen and

On behalf of the Fort Worth Citizens' Cable TV Board, we are writing to
inform you that the Board took a unanimous vote that the City Council be
informed of our desire for the renewal of the contract between the Fort
Worth Cable TV office and the Tarrant Area Community of Churches (TACC) for
the management of the religious public access channel. This is detailed in
the minutes of our October 1, 1990 meeting.
At our December 3, 1990 meeting, the Board learned that the contract with
TACC had still not been executed. The Board then voted that its chairman
present to you a letter confirming our support for the contract renewal with
TACC.
In any event, it is our strong feeling that this channel should not be given
back to Sammons.
