Floresville details CIP timelines: lift station, pool demolition, street designs and event‑center activity
Summary
City staff gave a multi‑item CIP update to council: Highway 97 lift station (mid‑2025), US‑181 lift station design pending easements, River Park pool demolition and phase‑2 works, schematic street designs due Jan. 2025 and downtown infrastructure work planned to support development.
City staff provided the council a monthly update on capital projects and board activity, reporting timelines and next steps for several projects.
Highlights included an estimated Q2–Q3 2025 completion window for a Highway 97 lift station; US‑181 proposed lift‑station site selected with easement work underway to allow design to proceed (target design ~2026); River Park pool demolition entering phase‑2 work; AP Inclusive Park equipment received but installation paused to replace a damaged amenity; and a 30% schematic design milestone for downtown street reconstruction expected by January 2025 with possible second‑quarter 2025 construction advertising.
Staff also described site work on the new law‑enforcement center (site clearing and concrete work underway), ongoing wastewater treatment plant closeout work, and efforts to coordinate water/wastewater infrastructure with street projects to avoid rework. Council members raised concerns about the street‑maintenance fund surplus and urged staff to accelerate projects while maintaining reserves.
Staff said they will keep council posted as easements and design milestones are cleared and will provide public notice for projects that will significantly affect downtown traffic and parking.
