Public works reports patching work, boat-ramp repair and upcoming TCEQ dam work
Summary
Public works (Mr. Portillo) reported about 44 tons of cold mix and roughly 35 tons of base used for patching, two patching trucks in service, plans to repair 6–8 blocks this summer, boat-ramp repairs at the new lake, and upcoming dam work tied to a TCEQ requirement.
Mr. Portillo gave the public-works update, saying crews used "about 44 tons of cold mix" and "about 35 tons of base" so far this month for street repairs and patching. He reported two patching trucks are in service, one truck was inherited from the fire department, and crews plan to repair six to eight blocks this summer and possibly more if schedules allow.
Portillo said the boat ramp at the new lake had a bad washout and has been fixed, parking was cleared and the town plans to place millings to form a parking surface. He also described upcoming work on the dam required by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) that will involve removing vegetation and grubbing; he characterized the work as necessary but manageable with staff resources. No formal contract awards or funding votes were recorded in the update.
