title
Request for approval to execute a Service Outlet Location Statement for installation of an electric meter with CenterPoint Energy, LLC and authorize the County Auditor to pay monthly bills for 9155 1/2 Queenston Boulevard, Houston, TX 77095 (Detention Basin Enhancement Program - Goforth - 2021) for electrical power serving a pump station, UPIN 21103N306330001, Precinct 3.

Background and Discussion:
Detention Basin Enhancement Program - Goforth - 2021 is a project to maximize the detention volume prior to a significant rainfall event by reducing the initial water surface elevation. The service outlet location statement is needed to establish electrical service from CenterPoint Energy to power the pump station.
Expected Impact:
Approval of the service outlet location statement will allow CenterPoint Energy to establish electrical service to the pump station, which is needed to enhance the detention basin at this location.
Alternative Options:
All pump stations require a power source, which is typically obtained through CenterPoint Energy. A less desirable option would be to use a generator.
