Citizen from a Burning House and recognizing Sergeant Chase Romero and Officer Brant
Halfin for their heroism.
d. In accordance with the Texas Tax Code Section 351.101.c, it is necessary for the City to
review and accept the quarterly Hotel Occupancy Tax Fund financial report from the
Nederland Chamber of Commerce. Attached is the Chamber’s report for the 2025 3rd
Quarter (July 1st – September 30th). Revenues exceed expenditures by $8,440.28. I
recommend acceptance of the quarterly report.
e. Discussion and possible approval of Recreation Center lighting upgrade via state
approved contract. Attached is a quote from Spark Lighting, LLC for LED lighting and
installation costs in the amount of $46,750. The purchase is reimbursable by grant
awarded from the State Energy Conservation Office’s (SECO) Municipally Owned
Building Energy Efficiency Retrofit Program. At the September 23, 2024 City Council
meeting, an Agreement for the SECO grant between the City and the Texas Comptroller
of Public Accounts was approved for $50,000. The grant request included LED lighting
upgrades to the Nederland Recreation Center with no local match. Staff recommends
approval of the purchase; I concur with his recommendation.
f. Attached is Resolution 2025-18, casting votes for Bert Lamson as a candidate for the
Board of Directors of the Jefferson County Appraisal District (JCAD). In accordance
with Section 6.03 of the Property Tax Code, is it necessary for City Council to cast votes
for one nominee or distribute them as you wish. Mr. Lamson is a mid-county
representative nominated by the City of Groves. New legislation has implemented
staggered terms, so only two of the five appointed positions on the Board of Directors are
up for re-election. The City of Nederland holds 22 (1.10%) votes of JCAD. I
recommend approval of this item.
g. Attached is Ordinance 2025-23 amending the fiscal year 2025-2026 budget in accordance
with the Ordinance 2025-23 which states “That any unencumbered funds remaining on
hand at the end of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025, shall be construed with and
classified with Miscellaneous revenue anticipated during the fiscal year beginning
October 1, 2025, and ending September 30, 2026. The attached ordinance provides

remaining obligated funds on contract for forensic audit approved in FY24-25, police
department spike strips and dress class A uniforms for officers, dedicated funds for NISD
mental health services through Samaritan Counseling and increased cost of the Regional
Radio System cost for MCML dispatch. I recommend approval.
h. Attached is proposed Resolution No. 2025-19, authorizing account representatives for the
City’s Texpool Investment Account. The City has had an account with Texpool since
1997, and it is necessary to update the authorized signatories to include both of the City’s
investment offices (interim city manager and finance director) since Texpool requires a
minimum of two signatures to transact business on behalf of the City. The finance
director recommends approval of this item; I concur with her recommendation.
i. Attached is invoice number 1088 from GovWell Technologies, Inc. in the amount of
$35,000 for annual subscription fees for building permits & inspections, planning &
zoning, public works permits, contractor registration and resident requests and work

policy requirements require approval from City Council for purchases exceeding
$25,000. I recommend approval of this item.
j. Attached is invoice 1418 from Samaritan Counseling Center of Southeast Texas for a
mental health wellness program for NISD. At the December 9, 2024 City Council
meeting, council approved the dedication of funds in the amount of $50,000 for mental
health services of NISD for the 2025-2026 school year allocated to the Coronavirus Local
Fiscal Recovery Funds (CLFRF). The CLFRF funding needed to be obligated by
December 31, 2024 and those funds are no longer available for this program. Included in
Ordinance 2025-23 is a budget amendment to approve funding for the mental health
wellness program for NISD as the previous city council authorized this expenditure. I
recommend approval.
