Summary

Council approved a reimbursement agreement with Taylor Morrison and associated developer entities for Segment 1 of the East Interceptor wastewater project and authorized executing the CC Carlton bid; base bid was $1,991,000 with an optional $364,000 and a developer share of roughly $700,000 for the initial pipe diameter.

City staff described a plan to construct Segment 1 of the East Interceptor wastewater project and a reimbursement approach with the developer. Laura (city staff) said the developer will fund the "first 8 inches" (the developer‑sized diameter) and the city will seek Texas Water Development Board funds, early impact fee payments, or an additional LUE fee at Gateway Village to cover the oversizing and reimburse the city where appropriate.

Staff said the base bid received from CC Carlton Industries was $1,991,000 and an optional set of items totaled $364,000. The city’s current estimate is that about $700,000 of the base cost corresponds to the developer‑funded portion; the remainder would be financed through the city's share contingent on outside funding sources or impact fees.

Council moved and approved the reimbursement agreement with Taylor Morrison of Texas Inc., and later approved executing the bid with CC Carlton Industries; votes were recorded by voice as unanimous.
