Commissioners accept Veramendi construction bond, extend Steelwood Trail surety rider
Summary
The court accepted a construction bond for Veramendi Unit 30 and approved a one-year extension (surety rider) for bond 24272520 covering Steelwood Trail Unit 4; staff emphasized the county is only holding bonds and not paying contractor adjustment fees.
County staff recommended accepting the construction bond for Veramendi Unit 30 and extending a surety rider for construction bond 24272520 for Steelwood Trail Unit 4 (an ETJ area of New Braunfels). Mr. Balbrick described on-the-ground work and recommended the actions; commissioners approved both motions by voice vote.
During discussion of the Steelwood rider, staff clarified the county is holding the bond and will not pay any contractor adjustment fees the public had referenced. Staff also noted some improvements may ultimately be maintained by the county but are not yet complete; the extension was presented as routine to allow completion of work.
