Shoreacres City Council
by Dedra Kratts

Shoreacres City Council voted to adopt the Inter-jurisdictional Comprehensive All Hazard Mitigation Plan which was proposed by Harris County Commissioners Court. 

“FEMA is requiring an All Hazard Mitigation Plan of all cities in the coastal area by the end of 2003, in order to be eligible for future FEMA disaster relief funds, if needed,” explained Mayor Nancy Edmonson.  

The city council voted officially to call the May 3 municipal election and appointed officers to run the election.

The city council voted to regulate the erection of fences, prohibiting the use of barbed-wire.

The city council voted to reimburse Edmonson $45 per month for use of her cell phone on city business.

“I think it should be, at least, equal to the public works director, which is set at $45,” said Council Member Jayo Washington about the cell phone reimbursement.

The city council designated The Baytown Sun as the official newspaper of the City of Shoreacres.

The city council named Eugene Hovey as the city auditor
