City Council Approves Flintco for Manville Public Works Facility Construction

The Manvel City Council made significant strides in addressing ongoing construction issues during their meeting on August 4, 2025. A key decision was the approval of a substitution agreement with Flintco for the completion of the Manvel Public Works facility. This move comes after the original contractor defaulted on the project, prompting the city to invoke the performance bond as required by law.

City Manager Dan Bobby provided an overview of the situation, explaining that the bonding company has already facilitated a replacement contractor, Flintco, which recently completed the police building. The council's decision to authorize the city manager to execute the agreement and related documents is expected to expedite the resolution of the claim with the bonding company and ensure the timely completion of the Public Works facility.

This agreement not only addresses the immediate construction challenges but also reflects the city's commitment to maintaining essential public infrastructure. As Flintco steps in to complete the project, residents can look forward to the enhanced services that the new facility will provide once operational. The council's proactive approach in this matter underscores their dedication to effective governance and community development.
