Delvin Dennis address Commerce Development Team Delvin Dennis, P.E., District Engineer for the Houston District of the Texas Department of Transportation, and Law-rence J. Heckathorn, Area Engineer for Brazoria County, were guests at the December 10 meeting of the Commerce Connec-tion Team to address concerns of Pearland businesses and resi-dents, perhaps most prominently the procedure for securing cuts into parking areas along the new SH 288. The two engineers explained that feeder road curb cuts are an issue between TxDOT and the landowners, not the busi-nesses if the business does not have title to the land. Dennis recommended business owners who do not own the land under-neath their establishments contact their landlords and have them make arrangements for the curb cuts. Other areas discussed included these: • Thecontract forwideningHighway35hasbeen awarded, and construction will begin sometime in 2010.

Schlotzsky’s Deli9121 Broadway

www.schlotzskys.com Restaurant

In 1971, a small shop on South Congress Avenue in Austin, Texas was home to a single, one-of-a-kind sandwich. The menu was succinct: one delectable sandwich composed of a unique combination of premium meats, cheeses, and marinated black olives served on hot Schlotzsky’s sourdough bread. From humble origins, The Original® created a passion-ate customer following. As we’ve grown, customers’ tastes have evolved, and so has our menu. The Original® sandwich is still the mainstay of Schlotzsky’s, but today you can also enjoy fresh baked bread, delicious hot sandwiches and panini, specialty pizzas, toasted wraps, freshly tossed salads, gourmet soups, and more! The Pearland Schlotzsky’s Deli, which opened this fall, will be happy to bring all of their yummy food to your next event.

She was blessed to be able to stop working full time when her second child was born, but after being a stay-at-home mom for seven years, she started her journey into the publishing world. She states that she has learned so much publishing Pearland Insider and has enjoyed every minute. She feels it’s a great way for her to get out into the community and share with residents what’s happening in Pearland. Susie is active in the Pearland Chamber of Commerce where she serves as an ambassador. She is also active at St. Helen’s Catholic Church where she teaches CCE to fourth-graders. And she’s always ready to help out at the elementary where her sons attend school and has been a PTA member at her children’s schools for many years. She tries to read in her spare time and loves gardening and dancing. And of course this busy mother of three and business owner enjoys spending time with family and friends.Being the editor of Pearland Insider has given Susie the opportunity to meet many local and business owners and employees, awesome volunteers, longtime residents and com-munity leaders. She is looking forward to an exciting 2010. Happy New Year Pearland! Check out Pearland Insider at www.pearlandinsider.com.

LEADERSHIP PEARLAND – How Pearland worksBy Class Member June Ellis, City of Pearland The 2009-2010 Leadership Pearland Class set out to educate itself on the City of Pearland and “how it works” on Mon-day,November9.ThedaybeganwithatouroftheSWECWaste-waterTreatmentPlantonMagnoliaBoulevard.WilliamMcCart,theWastewaterTreatmentPlantSuperintendant, andplant staffshowed class members how wastewater from homes and busi-nesses is treated at this site and converted back to clean water that is discharged into the nearby detention pond and creek.

ThenextstopwasatourofthePublicWorksfacilityonOldAlvinRoad.Here,DerrickThomas,theWaterProductionSupervisor, provided the class with a tour of the administrative of-fices.Wethenexploredthefleetmaintenanceshopwhereallcityvehicles,fromcitypolicevehiclestofirepumpers,areserviced.The tour took us to a part of the grounds where we were shown damagedfirehydrantsthatwillberepairedatthepublicworksfa-cility and put back into service along city streets. Mr. Thomas also explainedhowopenfirehydrantsthataresometimesseenaroundthe city with water coming out of them are actually opened by the departmenttoflushoutwaterlines,somethingrequiredtokeepthewater fresh and clean.

Next we visited the city’s Animal Shelter and met with Shari Coleman, the Animal Control Supervisor. Ms. Coleman explained their process for receiving animals and the adoption procedures at the shelter. She provided a tour of shelter where the dogs are housed, as well as the cats and other animals. She also spoke about the daily cleaning of the areas where the animals are kept,anddiscussedthebenefitoftheexpansionprojectthatwasactually beginning at the facility the day of the tour. Ms. Coleman was very proud of the cleanliness of her facility compared to others she has visited in the area.

From there we went to meet the city’s Fire Marshal and FireChief,RolandGarcia and JackColbath, respectively. Mr.Garcia showed the class the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and explained the circumstances that would initiate the activation of the center. He told the class about the new EOC that will be locatedatthenewPublicSafetyBuildingandthemanybenefitstothe city of all of the state of the art equipment that will be housed at the new Cullen location. Fire Chief Jack Colbath explained his department’sgoalofprovidingefficientandeffectivefireprotec-tionservicestothecommunity.Thecitycurrentlyhasfourfirestations,andhespokeofthefifthfirestationplannedforKirbyDriveintheShadowCreekRancharea.Indiscussinghiscriticalroleasfirechiefofthisever-growingcityandofalltheyearsofexperiencehehasrelatedtoprovidingfireprotectionservices,hestated that you never really stop learning in his business. Even at the top one still has to adjust to many things, and some areasbasicasadjustingtothenewgenerationoffirefightingemployees,the“millennials,”whoaremanyyearsyounger,with different workplace beliefs and ideas.

LocatedonlyfeetawayfromtheFireMarshal’sofficeis theofficeof theEmergencyMedicalServices(EMS). There we met with Jeff Sundseth, the EMS Operations Director. Mr. Sundseth introduced us to his staff and lieutenant on duty. The lieutenant showed us the ambulance for that location and allowed us to look and even go inside this vehicle. He explained some of the equipment that’s standard in each ambulance for the emergency medical services they provide.

Because of the shortness of time, the class had to quickly depart the EMS location to pick up Michelle Smith, theDirectorofParksandRecreationandtheAssistantDirectorofParksandRecreation,RosalynEpting.WhiledrivingbythefutureRecreationCenter/NatatoriumonBaileyRoad,Ms.Smithtalkedaboutthesizeofthefacilitythat’scur-rently under construction, 107,000 square feet, and she explained the partnership the city has with Pearland Independent School District as it relates to the Natatorium side of the facility. Ms. Smith also discussed the mission of the Parks andRecreationDepartment–multiplyingtheX4factor:qualityfacilities,qualityprograms,andqualityforserviceforyourqualitylife.Withtheseladiesintow,wetouredthePearlandRecyclingCenterwhereWesShows,thecenter’sRecyclingCoordinatorandLindaCowles,theDirectorofKeepPearlandBeautiful(KPB),gavetheclassatourofthefacility,discussedtheoperationsofthecenterandexplainedtherelationshipbetweenKPBandtheRecyclingCenter.AfterdepartingtheRecyclingCenterwedrovebyCentennialPark,whereMs.Smithinformedusoftheimprovementsplanned for the park.

All of these projects are managed by only four project managers inhisdepartment,althoughhedoesuseageneralengineeringconsultanttohelpsmoothstaffingneeds.

Each council member and staff member introduced himself and explained his role in the city government.

Toendtheday,theleadershipclassattendedthecouncilmeetingheldintheCityCouncilchambers.Wewereable to see how things related to the city, and its growth and betterment, are carried out through the “legislative process” of city government. They were also recognized by the Mayor, one-by-one, and received a standing ovation from the Mayor, City Council and others in attendance at the council meeting that evening.

Although I am proud to say that I am an employee of the City of Pearland, the tour and meetings we had with the various city departments provided me with a different perspective on just how this city operates. It helped to clarify that no matter if you are the Mayor of this wonderful city, or someone occupying a much lower position, we all work towards that one goal of making this city the best that it can be, and that keeps a smile on my face.
