o how did a
young man
from thc landlocked state of
New Mexico end up as the
Chairman of the Port
Commissioners tbr the eighth
largest port in the world?
Quite simply by being in thc
right place, at the right time
throughout his career.James T. Edmonds grew up in the
12,000-person town of Los Alamos, where
his f~lther worked as a civil engineer and his
mother was a nurse for the town’s
obstetrician/gynecologist. Jim went on to
Abilene Christian Univcrsity, unsure of what
he wanted to do with his lifk.
There he took a political scicnce class
Chairman Edmonds, the Mayor "wanted to
make sure it worked out fbr the taxpayers of
Houston and that it was fair to them."
When he went back to see the Mayor,
he was offkred a job tbr $465 a month.
Mayor Welch chuckles about the whole
thing and says, "Kay held morc attraction to
Jim than the $465 I offcrcd."
"If I had known what I was getting
into, it might all have been different,"
rcminisces Chairman Edmonds. "But I was
just a little ignorant kid f?om New Mexico
who got stuck in a back office at City hall,
handed a city phone book and told to
answer citizen complaints. It was a grueling
experience but I sure learned a lot about city
government." In all, Chairman Edmonds
spent 10 years as Mayor Welch’s Executive
Assistant.
However, after only the first year-and-
a-half with Mayor Welch, an unusual
opportunity presented itself. Texas
Governor John Connally had been elected
to his third two-year term and had decided
that he was not going to run again. Texan
Lyndon Johnson was President and a
number of the Governor’s staff" members
went on to positions in the White House.
"1 spent more time with the Governor than
anyone else on his staff, and I was only ;~3
years old."
which sparked interest. He also met his
future wife, Kay, who became an elementary
school teacher. Although their plan was ~br
Chairman Edmonds to pursue a law degree,
thcrc wcrc no teaching positions for Kay
and she moved to Houston.
As it turncd out, a set of twin brothers
fi’om Houston had been collcgcmatcs. One
of them said, "Why don’t you call our dad and
work fbr him? He’s Mayor of Houston."
Chairman Edmonds’ political science
professor wrote newly elected Mayor Douic
Welch a letter of recommendation, and
Chairman Edmonds went to see the Mayor.
Mayor Welch told Jim that he didn’t
havc a job open, but wanted to think about
hiring Jim nonetheless. According to
"So the Governor was down here one
day lamenting to Mayor Welch that all these
guys were leaving him and that he needed
some help," recalls Chairman Edmonds.
"The Mayor said, ’I have this kid on my staff
and that’s all the help I can give you.’"
So Chairman Edmonds was off to
Austin to serve as Administrative Assistant
to the Governor handling his itinerary,
travel, letters and executive clcmency. "I
spent more time with the Governor than
anyone else on his staff; and I was only 23
years old. Governor Connally was the kind
of guy who wouldn’t go to the rcstroom
without taking somebody with him and that
was my job," chuckles Chairman Edmonds.
"I went ever~vhere that hc went."

"We are going to build the finest facility possible. We are going to be a good neighbor to
the surrounding community. We are looking into every method for reducing the i.~pact
of our presence, and intend to surprise our detractors with just how pleasant their
communities will continue to be with the Port’s presence at Bayport, That’s a prornise,"
Chairman and Mrs. Edmonds
moved to Austin and were thcrc for just
over a year. "I was gone the whole time.
The Governor had created the Tcxas
Travel Trails, which utilized farm to-
market roads. He decided betbre he left
office that he or Mrs. Connally would
travel every one of those trails. They’d
get on a bus with many of their t:riends,
or leaders from throughout Texas. I
spent most of the time balancing a tray
and serving refreshments.
"I’d come home and Kay would ask
if I’d been in a fight, because nay lcgs
were always black and bluc from being
knocked around the aislc of the bus while
trying to balance a tray. Meanwhile, I
got to see Texas and know more about it
than my wife who is a native."
Already Chairman Edmonds was
fbrming thc important allianccs that
would serve him well in the coming years.
"The Govcrnor and I became last friends.
I was basically his pcrsonal aide and got to
spcnd one-on one time with him that few
others ever could or would."
Chairman Edmonds returncd to
Houston, worked again for Mayor Welch
and ran his campaigns until the Mayor left
office. Hc followcd the Mayor to thc
Chamber of Commerce, but was soon
approachcd by a neighbor who was an
audit parmcr with the Peat Marwick
accounting firm. Chairman Edmonds
joined Peat Marwick, built a consulting
practice in state and local government tbr
thc firm, and eventually became a partner.
He continucd to parlay his extensive
experiencc and contacts first as a
tbunding partncr of the investment firm
of Mastcrson, Moreland, Sauer,
Whisman, Inc. and now as Prcsidcnt of
Edmonds & Company. The firm assists
clients with organizational matters,
business development, marketing plans
and regulatory compliance, primarily
with the public scctor.
In 1996 he was appointed a Port
Commissioner by Harris County
Commissioners Court. His unanimous
appointment to Chairman finds him
taking over the reins ti*om his old t:ricnd
Ned Holmes. "Wc tact many years ago
and over the years have shared and
enjoyed many experiences as well as each
other’s company.
"Ned loves the Port and there will
never be another pcrson like him. He
always tbund another challengc to kccp
him there tbr 12 years. We talk every day
or so, and he’s thcrc fbr me to call on. At
the samc time, he doesn’t get in my way
or tell me what to do, and I respect that.

It’s a very smooth transition between two f’ricnds."
Chairman Edmonds plans to continue the Port’s
aggressive strategic business plan that hinges on a new
containerized cargo thcility that will triple the Port’s capacity
within 20 years. "In the short tcrm wc must fbcus on
capturing the rest of the market share in thc Gulf" of Mexico.
"Wc arc going to build the finest fhcility possible. We are
going to be a good neighbor to the surrounding community.
We are looking into every method for reducing the impact of
our prcscncc, and intend to surprise our detractors with just
how pleasant their communities will continue to be with the
Port’s presence at Bayport. That’s a promisc.
"Our long-term growth is in countries from South America
all the way up to Mexico who havc abundant natural resources
that over time will become a product and then put on a ship to
go someplace. And that ship needs to come to Houston."
"Our emerging nation neighbors to the south are
developing port operations, and we can help with our extensive
technical expertise. We can cxpand our markets through their
growing markets. Many international markets are dominated
by the ports, but there is room for us to increase our market
share if we do so strategically. We need to conduct a carefid
analysis of the potential in these markets and develop a sound
plan fbr our fnturc."
Chairman Edmonds is also fbcused on environmental
issues, cspccially the very critical Clean Air Act compliance
issucs facing the Houston area.
"I don’t think there’s any choice but to find some way to
rcsolvc the challcngcs facing us within a time flame that allows
us to do our business. That is the only option in my mind,"
said Edmonds.
"I believe that the needs of the environment can co-exist
with the maritime industry, he said. The Port of Houston can
be clean and still grow our business. Wc can’t sit back and bc
reactivc. Wc must be proactive, and find whatever technology
is out there, try it, and make it work so we can proceed without
interruption. I think that can bc donc with lcadership."
Many agree that given the goals facing the Port of
Houston in thc 21st century, Jim Edmonds is the right
Chairman at the right time. Harris County Judgc Robert
Eckels rcccntly stated that the public issues involving air quality,
government regulatory agcncics, and thc permitting process fbr
Bayport rcquirc a Port Chairman with the personal skills and
political skills to reach out and help othcrs undcrstand.
"I deal with those kinds of problems all the time, and I am
comfortable in that arcna and hope I can make it a win-win for
both sides - certainly fbr the Port. The environment and
busincss can coexist, they should, and they have to now," said
Edmonds. "We also owe it to our many customers and to the
region’s economic health to remain steady on a course of
growth and prosperity." ,,~

"Whereas Chairman Holmes
has provided unparalleled
leadership to the Port of Houston
Authority as a Port Commissioner
since 1987, and as Chairman of
the Port Commission since 1988.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes has
devoted a great deal of his
professional time and expertise to the
Port Authority which has created
significant strides in the Port’s business
activity and growth as well as in the
environmental preservation of
Galveston Bay.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes has
ensured that the Port Authority facilities
continue to expand and improve to keep
pace with market demand, resulting in
an 89 percent increase in containers
handled from 530,593 in 1988 to
1,001,170 in 1999, thus making the
Port of Houston one of only 34 ports in
the world capable of handling more
than a million containers a year.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes’
vision of the Port of Houston as an
economic catalyst providing
opportunity by being ’the soil that
allows other businesses to take root’
has been realized by the fact that the
Port generates nearly 205,000 jobs
across Texas and an annual
economic impact of $7.7 billion, up
by 40 percent since 1994.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes has
studied trade development trends and has
participated in numerous trade
development missions so that the Port of
Houston would remain the leading U.S.
port in terms of foreign tonnage. During
Chairman Holmes’ tenure, foreign tonnage
has increased by 62 percent
from 64.6 million in 1988 to 104.7 million
in 1999.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes has overseen
the acquisition of land and numerous facilities
such as Jacintoport, Care Terminal, and the
Woodhouse Terminal including Public Elevator
#2, so that more trade can take place at the Port
of Houston. Increased facilities and capacity
have made the Port of Houston second highest
of all U.S. ports in overall tonnage. DuringChairman Holmes’ tenure, overall tonnage has
grown by 36 percent from 124.9 million in
1988 to 169.0 million in ]999.

"Whereas under Chairman Holmes’
leadership and guidance the Port Authority has
experienced its most profitable years due to its
phenomenal growth in containerized cargo and
cargo tonnage.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes has overseen
four successful bond elections which have
provided a total of $767 million for the
deepening and widening of the Houston Ship
Channel, improvements to Port Authority
facilities, and the first phase of the E~ayport
Container Terminal which when completed will
triple the Port Authority’s capacity to handle
conlainerized cargo.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes worked with
the Port of Galveslon to lease and improve its
East End Container Terminal to handle overflow
container business from the Port of Houston
which has resulted in increased economic
activity for and goodwill between both ports.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes vigorousl~
sought out non-traditional sources of income and
recruited ~o cruise lines which now sail out oi
the cruise terminal at Barbours Cut each wee!
with capacity exceeding 100 percent. Ir’
addition, he has welcomed the economicall~
advantageous privatization of certain faciJitie~
such as the Bulk Materials Handling Plant
Jacintoport, and Public Elevator #2.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes has emphasized
the ability and responsibility of the Port Authority 1o
be an environmental leader in the preservation of
Galveston Bay. As a result, dredge materials from
the Houston Ship Channel are restoring 2,220
acres of salt marsh, a six-acre bird habitat, and the
currently submerged Red Fish Island in Galveston
Bay. Numerous awards including the Gulf
Guardian Award recognize lhe Porl Authority for
the numerous environmental projects undertaken
during Chairman Holmes’s tenure.
"Whereas Chairman Holmes’s wisdom
and wit was always present and relied upon,iand will be sorely missed."~.~ I
