Summary

Mayor Blackstone summarized the status of multiple grant-funded projects — an $11.4M grant (including Lake Camelot), a $7.9M grant with asphalt cracking resolved at no cost, a $1.9M Lakewood Drive project and other submittals — and noted outstanding TCEQ and engineering steps.

Mayor Skip Blackstone provided a consolidated update on grant-funded infrastructure work in Ivanhoe, outlining several programs and current steps to move projects forward. He referenced an $11.4 million grant that covers multiple projects (Camelot Dam, Ivanhoe and Tristan projects), noting that bids were opened for Lake Camelot and that the city had submitted an extension request to the GLO. He also reviewed a $7.9 million package in which LJA and the city resolved cracking at several sites with no cost to the city and said Terracon is analyzing Millcreek samples.

The mayor reported that Lake Ivanhoe had been resubmitted to TCEQ with one comment pending and that engineers were revising Form 20345 for the mayor's signature to secure approval to proceed. He also noted that the Lake Tristan S-curve project needs in-house coordination to address minor design issues and that a 1.9 million Lakewood Drive project received a notice to proceed on Jan. 6, 2025. "This agenda item is for information only, no action taken," the minutes record.
