Council Authorizes Amendment Allowing Up to $7.2M Annually for Citywide Street and Sidewalk Repairs
Summary
Missouri City Council unanimously authorized the city manager to amend a multi‑year contract with Brooks Concrete to provide citywide sidewalk and street panel repairs, establishing a maximum annual expense up to $7.2 million for years two and three and directing work to start in late March 2026.
Missouri City Council voted unanimously March 16 to authorize the city manager to execute a contract amendment with Brooks Concrete Inc. to correct an error in the 2025 agreement and set a maximum annual expenditure for years two and three not to exceed $7,200,000. The council motion passed with a second and an announcement from the city secretary that the motion carried unanimously.
Public Works Director Mustafa Albasam told the council the contract covers panel repairs and sidewalk replacement—not full roadway reconstructions funded by bonds—and that Brooks committed to fielding six repair crews to complete work between March and December 2026. Albasam said the funding breakdown for the program includes $6,000,000 for streets ($2,000,000 from Metro funds and $4,000,000 from general funds), approximately $1,000,000 per year for sidewalks ($800,000 Metro/$200,000 general), and $200,000 from a general bond for parks-related sidewalk work.
Council members asked for clarifications about scope and timing. "This particular contract is specifically for repair," Albasam said, distinguishing panel repairs from full road reconstruction. He also confirmed the contractor agreed to honor prices submitted in the 2025 bid despite the administrative correction to the contract term. Staff said a detailed list of streets and specific addresses would be provided to council and communications materials would be issued to notify affected residents ahead of construction.
The packet and staff presentation note the 2025 agreement was intended to be a three-year contract (three one-year terms) but was mistakenly executed for a single year; the requested amendment corrects that administrative error. The council adopted the amendment; individual roll-call tallies were not recorded in the public transcript.
