Council moves to hire Kaluza Inc. for Westport Chocolate Bayou drainage engineering; motion recorded
Summary
Council heard engineering justification for drainage improvements along the Westport/West Fork Chocolate Bayou and a motion to approve a $48,050 contract with Kaluza Inc. for engineering and surveying services was made and seconded; the transcript does not show a recorded final vote.
City Engineer Ramirez Turner described the Westport/West Fork Chocolate Bayou drainage project to the council on Aug. 12, saying the waterway begins near Highway 6, meanders through Post Oak Forest and contains debris and encroachments that limit flow. Turner said the proposed contract with Kaluza Inc. would provide plans, specifications, bidding support and construction-phase engineering for the drainage improvements.
Turner told council the work would include surveying to identify culverts and obstructions and drafting construction documents to be competitively bid. "This contract right here is for us to prepare plans, specs, go to the bidding process, and to assist as we go through the construction phase services," Turner said.
A motion to approve Kaluza Inc. for engineering and surveying services in the amount of $48,050 was made and seconded during the meeting. The provided transcript records the motion and second, but does not include the final recorded roll-call or tally for the vote in the available text; the agenda subsequently continued to other items.
