P OSTED the 4th of December 2018 on the b ulletin board at the Rockport Service Cen- t er, 2751 State High- way 35 Bypass, Rock- port, Texas, and on the C ity’s website at www.cityofrockport.co m.

C ITY OF ROCK- P ORT /s/ Teresa Valdez, City Secretary EMAIL IT… [email protected] www.petfinder.com ations.” He said the more kids that return, the more state funding the ACISD will receive, and the recapture amount will begin to drop. “We’ve made a lot of cuts necessary due to the loss of students, but we’re having to cut more to keep us afloat,” said Patek. AEP’s Patrick King reminded everyone at one time 230,000 people in AEP’s service area did not have power. “In Aransas County there was major infrastruc- ture damage,” he said. King noted AEP and its partners had electricity restored in two weeks with a combination of new equipment and patchwork solutions. “We’re now going back and replacing (the patchwork),” he said. King said the four substations servicing Aransas County were severely impacted. The Tatton sub- station was completely demolished. Two of the substations are 100 percent complete, one is 90 percent complete, and one is at 80 percent. “We’ve made some really good progress at those substations,” said King. AEP crews are busy with reconnections on rebuilds, as well. “What happens is we’re seeing 60 to 70 orders, then we have a wave of 150-plus orders, and we have to call in additional workers from other counties to assist,” said King. Lead Dispatcher Lee Zapata said call volumes are now about the same as they were pre-Harvey, but the calls received during the first six months after the storm were “different.” It was noted law enforcement has operated with one hand behind its back due to the radio tower situation, but those issues will soon be resolved once all communication towers are fully opera- tional. Rockport Mayor Pat Rios reported the loss of city hall has employees “working on top of each other,” but added, “morale is good.” Ninety-percent of services provided by the city pre-Harvey are now being provided. “All our crews are out working hard,” said Rios. Rockport City Manager Kevin Carruth noted the new city hall (part of the downtown anchor project with the county), and the replacement of the Key Allegro Bridge, are top priorities. First Baptist Church Pastor Scott Jones said Hands of Hope is trying to help those individuals who have fallen through the cracks. “We’re dealing with a lot of people emotional- ly,” he said. “That will be an ongoing problem.” Hands of Hope and Samaritan’s Purse operate out of the church. Hands of Hope Executive Director Cyndi Powell reported there were more than 6,000 volunteers who reported in through the church’s facilities last year, and many are calling, wanting to come back again this year. There are still 584 open cases to be served. “But we were at more than 1,000,” she said. First Baptist Associate Pastor of Mission and Outreach Jordan Mims said Hands of Hope has handled about 2,000 jobs since the storm, logging more than 100,000 volunteer hours. Fulton Mayor Jimmy Kendrick, a member of the church, quipped, “Mims was our youth minis- ter when Harvey hit. He has really grown up since the storm.” Coastal Bend Disaster Recovery Group (CBDRG) Executive Director Warren Phipps reported 124 projects totaling $3.5 million have been funded. Other funds have been appropriated, but not expended, including the funds received locally. He said funding looks good through 2019 as CBDRG works with other volunteer groups to make the money go farther and do more. “Cases are still coming in and we’re still fund- ing,” said Phipps, but added a lessening number of volunteers will be a challenge next year. He noted other major natural disasters in the country have put a strain on funding sources, but added, “We’re on a good path.” He said volunteers take about eight weeks to build a new home. McLester noted the framework for handling major donations is now in place. It was an issue local leaders didn’t think about prior to Harvey. Justice of the Peace Diane Dupnik reported sui- cides are on the increase, and there is a continuing need to address the emotional health of residents. LTRT Director John Strothman said the LTRT is working on funding for the downtown anchor project and Aquarium at Rockport Harbor, as well as many other projects. Aransas County Environmental Health Officer Valerie Gonzalez reported 3.5 million cubic yards of debris was cleared from rights of way. An additional 75,000 cubic yards was removed from private property, and 6,000 cubic yards from canals. More than half of that total was removed from canals in Copano Cove. Walmart Manager Tammy Finstad reported almost $6 million in lost merchandise in the storm. “At one point we were down to 40 associates,” she said. One positive from Harvey is Walmart got a much nicer store (completely remodeled). She reported business is down roughly 15 per- cent. “We have a long way to go in terms of customer count,” said Finstad. Kendrick said Fulton is in a rebuild stage. Construction on a new Fulton Pier and Paws and Taws is on the horizon. The pier will cost about $1.7 million. The estimate for Paws & Taws is a little more than $3 million. “It (Paws and Taws) is going to be a big open concept,” said Kendrick. “We’re looking at add- ing a large generator on it to make it a place for seniors to go during (any) power outage.” Reflecting on the work ahead regarding the pier and Paws and Taws, Kendrick said, “We’re on top of the rainbow and on the downside to the pot of gold.” Work on Paws and Taws should begin in March, immediately after Oysterfest. It should be finished in 364 days, one day short of one year. “Our biggest issue is workers,” said Kendrick. He said the new playground equipment at Fulton Harbor Park is attracting 20-plus kids per day. Kendrick also noted mental health problems are a real issue. “It’s not easy for a lot of people,” he said. Aransas County Judge C.H. “Burt” Mills praised county employees and their work since Harvey. “The team I have working for me is remark- able,” he said. The judge also praised the LTRT, saying, “I can’t say enough about what they’ve done for this community. “We’ve accomplished a lot in 15 months, but got a long way to go, but we’re a lot further along than others.” McLester closed the two-hour meeting say- ing local leadership set the bar pretty high after Hurricane Harvey. “We said if one person falls through the cracks we can call ourselves a failure. “We’ve got to take care of our fellow man. “All these things government has in place has failed them.” HARVEY continued from 6A
