Council approves engineering task orders, facade assistance, and drainage study
Summary
Council approved multiple staff‑recommended contracts: a $5,000 amendment to Duplantis Design Group for TxDOT permitting on Northmeyer Avenue; a façade performance agreement (not to exceed $40,000) for SpringHill Suites; and a task order (up to $50,000) for drainage analysis of Baywood Drive and Pine Gully Road.
At the Aug. 4 meeting the council approved three staff recommendations related to city infrastructure and economic development.
Council authorized an amendment (Northmeyer Avenue, Duplantis Design Group) adding TxDOT permitting work for $5,000 and directed the city manager to execute associated documents. The council also ratified a performance agreement to assist with commercial façade improvements at 2120 NASA Parkway (SpringHill Suites) with an amount not to exceed $40,000, a measure discussed as a quality‑of‑life and economic‑development initiative.
The council further approved task order #5 under the Duplantis Design Group PSA for a drainage analysis of Baywood Drive and Pine Gully Road to evaluate flood response and potential improvements in an amount not to exceed $50,000; staff said the study will produce options to allow residents to evacuate safely during flooding events and will inform subsequent capital work. All three motions carried unanimously.
