Council awards Greenville Avenue reconstruction contract to Texas Sterling Construction
Summary
Council awarded a $3.03 million contract to Texas Sterling Construction Company for the Greenville Avenue reconstruction project, funded in part by Collin County open-space grants and CISD; staff said the city’s portion is limited to construction observation costs.
The Josephine City Council voted unanimously to award the Greenville Avenue reconstruction contract to Texas Sterling Construction Company in the amount of $3,030,748.48. City staff reviewed the bid tab and said the top three lowest bidders were vetted; the recommendation selected the lowest vetted bidder.
Staff said the project is funded partially by Collin County open-space grants and by CISD, and that the city’s portion is limited primarily to construction observation responsibilities. Council member discussion centered on confirming funding sources and ensuring that standard vetting and contracting steps occur before execution. The motion to award the bid passed on a 5–0 vote.
The city staff representative noted that once the contractor is selected, staff will work with the contractor and the city to execute contracts and begin construction. A pre-construction meeting was referenced in relation to other projects (e.g., Milk Street gravity sewer), and staff said construction is expected to start in September for some projects as schedules permit.
The award completes the procurement step and authorizes staff to proceed with contracting as recommended.
