E. Lee. Kickoff is at 7 p.m.
at Stallworth Stadium.
Goose Creek CISD is
enlisting the help of stu-
dents and parents to ensure
that the game and related
activities are safe and pleas-
ant for everyone.
“I expect Goose Creek
students to display good
sportsmanship at all times
and represent their schools
and community in a digni-
fied, responsible manner”
GCCISD Superintendent
Dr. Salvador Cavazos said.
Acts of vandalism or
criminal mischief will not
be tolerated, and those who
are involved in activities
such as shooting paint balls
or throwing eggs at homes
will be arrested.
Additional security
measures will be in place
on Friday night. The gates
will open at 5:30 p.m.
Lee will be the home
team, and Gander fans
should park in the west
parking lot behind the press
box. Ranger fans should
park in the east lot behind
the visitors’ stands.
Dr. Cavazos reminded
fans that the following
items are prohibited inside
the stadium: weapons or
firearms, air homs/whistles
or other noisemakers, cool-
ers or containers, fireworks
or explosives, illegal sub-
stances, Frisbees and beach
balls, laser pens, or knives
of any size, including
Leatherman’s and multi-
purpose tools.
After the game, those
exiting from the home side
will be directed west on

Harris County constables
will direct the flow of traffic
at the four-way stop at
Cedar Bayou-Lynchburg
and Sjolander roads.
RATES

budget in the same meet-
ing, the matter was post-
poned until Sept. 6, not
because of anything
Wheeler said, but because
it is standard practice in
Baytown to postpone and
give city officials and coun-
cil members time to consid-
er anything said in that pub-
lic hearing.
Leiper said two changes
were going to be made
before the proposed budget
came before council again.
An item that ftmded
replacing council mem-
bers’ laptop computers with
iPads will be removed,
while expenditures related
to combining the fire
department and emergency
medical services will be
adjusted, since the budget
preparers left out the cost of
some benefits.
The new budget will
fund six additional police
officers and their equip-
ment; six additional fire-
fighters to be hired later in
the fiscal year to begin
build-up staffing for open-
ing of a new fire station in
October 2013; three more
EMS paramedics to begin
build-up to staff an addi-
tional ambulance; one more
911 operator; an additional
animal services officer, and
installation of two more
warning sirens in newly
annexed areas.
The proposed budget
also includes step pay
increases for police and fire

strophic Hurricane Katrina,
which devastated New
Orleans and the region near-
ly seven years ago to the day.
Isaac’s potential landfall
as a Category 1 hurricane as
early as Tuesday prompted
evacuations along a wide
area of the Gulf Coast and
sent people out to stock up
on staples.
As of 4 p.m. Monday,
Isaac remained a tropical
storm with top sustained
winds of 65 mph. Its center
was about 270 miles south-
east of the mouth of the
Mississippi River, and it was
moving northwest at 14
mph.
Isaac barreled past the
Florida Keys and was rolling
northwestward over the open
Gulf of Mexico on Monday.
The National Hurricane
Center predicted it would
grow to a hurricane with
winds of between 74 and 95
mph over the warn water
■ and possibly hit sometime
Tuesday somewhere along a
roughly 300-mile stretch
based on years in civil serv-
ice.
The entire budget can be
found on the city of
Baytown’s website.
from the bayous southwest
of New Orleans to the edge
of the Florida Panhandle.
Tuesday would be one day
shy of seven years after
Katrina struck catastrophi-
cally in 2005, although
Katrina was a much stronger
Category 5 storm with winds
in excess of 157 miles per
hour. Isaac is expected to
have top winds of around 90
mph when it hits land.
Is^ac has continued a
northwesterly track from the
Florida panhandle, and
Chambers County Emer-
gency coordinator Ryan
Holzaepfel said although
only the most extreme fore-
cast model shows Isaac tak-
ing a track into southeastern
Texas, its not a time for local
residents to relax prepara-
tions.
“(A) worst case scenario
would be rain and possible
tropical force winds by
Wednesday afternoon,”
Holzaepfel said in an e-mail
his department circulated to
maintain communication
with area residents and busi-
nesses. “Likely impacts for
our area could be hot condi-
tions with isolated showers.”
Baytown police have
released the identity of a
young man killed in a
weekend traffic accident
on North Main.
It happened in the 5500
block of North Main just
after 5 a.m. Edward
Gonzalez, 22 and an elec-
trician by trade, died when
the 1998 Honda Civic he
was driving left the road-
way, struck a culvert and a
utility pole before landing
upside down in a ditch.
Police said the initial
investigation showed that
alcohol and vehicle speed
contributed to the accident.
Three other people, all
passengers in the vehicle,
suffered serious injuries in
the accident. Two females,
ages 21 and 22, plus a 21-
year-old male were trans-
ported by Life Flight heli-
copter to Memorial
Hermann hospital.
Gonzalez died at the
scene. No update on the
condition of his passengers
was available on Monday.
