Kemah City Council Thursday night voted to designate City Administrator Bill Kerber as emergency management coordinator, following the resignation of Tommy Buchanan. The city council voted to use $2,500 of hotel occupancy tax funds for sponsorships of the Silver Dollar Ball. The city council tabled action on a request for $15,000 of HOTax funds for the Blessing of the Fleet celebration, until additional paperwork is provided. The city council left on the table requests for HOTax funds for advertising in Texas Town and City Magazine and a request by Gannett Advertising. The city council appointed council members Greg Collins and John Conrad to a committee to recommend whether the city council should participate in future Vacation, Leisure and Outdoor Shows in Houston or should concentrate its efforts in areas that are not so familiar with Kemah. Also on Thursday night, Mayor William King told Landry's Restaurant representative Bret Kellerman than he would be pleased to permit Tilman Fertitta to display his rare white tigers on the Kemah Boardwalk, or elsewhere in the city, if the City of Houston rejects his proposal for the Downtown Aquarium.
