Brownsville City Commission approves contract to replace irrigation pumps at golf course
Summary
The commission approved a contract with Pump Mechanical Technical Service to replace two irrigation pump stations at Brownsville Golf Center, a project the city says will support maintenance and help reduce neighborhood flooding; vote tallies were not provided in the update.
The Brownsville City Commission approved a contract with Pump Mechanical Technical Service to replace two irrigation pump stations at the Brownsville Golf Center, according to a city update aired on Brownsville TV News.
The project calls for removal of the existing pump station and the purchase, installation and training for a new system that will serve both the front and back nine, the update said. The work is described as part of a larger in-house renovation effort at the golf center intended to support long-term course maintenance and protect investments at the facility.
"Long-term it will help with the flooding not only at the golf course, but for the residents around the golf course because the water from those streets run into the golf course, and then we pump it out into the storm water system," said Xavier Hilard, a Brownsville TV News reporter who presented the update.
The update did not include details on who moved or seconded the contract motion or the vote tally; no formal vote record was provided in the segment. The contract covers replacement of two irrigation pump stations and includes training for city staff on the new system.
The commission framed the work as both a maintenance and flood-mitigation measure tied to a broader renovation at the Brownsville Golf Center. For Brownsville TV News, Xavier Hilard reported on the item.
