The next item on the agenda is a public hearing on ordinance granting a rezone to Nayah, LLC, from Residential to Commercial to allow for future development not known at this time, for property located at southeast on ramp onto I-10 off Hwy. 1256 (property north of Fairfield). An ADA phone call was made to Mr. Kenneth Belanger. Mr. Belanger stated that hes opposed to this rezone since the applicant doesnt know what he wants to put on the property. Chris Higginbotham, Allen Street, voiced in opposition in the rezone. Hes concerned about debris removal on the property, and it could crack his foundation on his home. He doesnt want any thru traffic on Allen Street. He also showed concern with children waiting on the school bus because its much too dangerous.
Mark and Rhona Duhon, Allen Street, also voiced their opposition to the rezone. The neighborhood has already been through enough with another rezone in this area. They also dont want Allen Street to be a cut-through for traffic to get to or from this property. Their neighborhood is quiet without this.
James LeDoux, Claiborne Street, stated that he wasnt for or against this but theyre putting the cart before the horse. They first need to tell the city what they want to put on the property before it gets rezoned. He also suggested that the north end of Lena Drive shouldnt be able to be used either.
Josh Baden stated that a 6-foot-tall fence wouldnt be high enough for this neighborhood. He suggested making them build a taller fence. He also asked if this property would be on Carlyss water or Sulphur water.
Mr. Zaveri, owner, stated that hes had this property for 8 years. His intention is to put a hotel on this property. They do not want access on Allen Street. Their access will be from Hwy. 1256 through the parking lot of the adjacent hotel. Some of the Councilmen stated that him putting a hotel on this property was the first theyve heard of this. The Land Use Commission voted no on this since the applicant didnt show up at the meeting.
After discussion, motion was made by Mrs. Ellender seconded by Mrs. Hardy that this item be deferred to the May 11th City Council meeting. Motion carried unanimously.
The next item on the agenda is a resolution accepting petition for annexation from Michael Paul Willis (Willis Ford South Properties, LLC) for property located at 2010 Patton Street.

The next item on the agenda is public comment.
Kristi Dayemo showed concern about an incident that occurred a couple of weeks ago at Westlake Chemical. These are toxins that people are breathing. There were 2 hazardous leaks last month that injured 4 people. She requested an ordinance for monitoring air quality.
Josh Baden showed concern about T-Fiber hitting utilities again. They are damaging our infrastructure even more. He has asked the city to put a stop work order on them 5-6 months ago. Why cant we stop them.
Jacob Stutes stated that local residents have asked him to draft an ordinance that would stop contractors from continuing to work if they hit our utilities and infrastructure during construction. He asked the Council and Administration to review it and give him some input.
Mayor Danahay stated that the strikes that are taking place with the contractors are 100% being paid for by the contractor. They are paying for manpower for fire and police and even the water loss during these incidence. He thanked the fire, police and public works departments for their quick actions during the gas leak. A resident, where the gas leak actually happened, came to his office and said how quick and responsive these departments had the issue under control and he commended them. T-Fiber is about 1 month from being complete in the city. He looks forward to competition and in the long run this will benefit the citizens of Sulphur. There was a meeting held last week with T-Fiber and they were told that the city is not pleased at all with all these hits on our water/sewer/gas lines.
Austin Abrahams, Director of Public Works, stated that contractors are required to give a bond. Their bond is $250,000 and they have one full year to be responsible if anything happens.
Jennifer Thorn, Director of Public Works, stated that they had a meeting with T-Fiber when the city went into the city-wide boil advisory. T-Fiber is paying for everything from water loss, labor, equipment, units, septage haulers and administrative costs. They were stopped at first until they paid for damages. They pay even if its the citys fault. Theyve fired lots of contractors since theyve started.
Josh Baden stated that hes seen the public records request that he requested as far as the billing, but another request he submitted to clarify the amount of gallons of usage used by the subcontractors being pulled off the citys hydrants that was not being metered and had no cross-contamination protection. For a year there was no record of gallons of water being used by the companies. There was thousands of gallons of water that was loss during the one year period so lets figure out what that cost is. Mrs. Thorn stated that Mr. Baden requested Vexus (T-Fiber) in his public records request. The contractors dont put Vexus on their paperwork so when contractors come in and get water she doesnt know theyre a contractor for Vexus. She bills the company that comes in and purchases the water. She can tell you all the contractors that use the water but not who theyre working for. Mr. Baden then asked who monitors how much water is being stolen by the contractors. Mrs. Thorn then stated that all contractors are billed for their water usage.
There being no further business to come before the Council, the Chairman declared the meeting adjourned.
