Background and Discussion:
The Leon Z. Grayson/Baldree Community Center Renovation are both existing facilities and located at 13828 Corpus Christi St., Houston, TX 77015 on a 63,000 square foot tract of land owned by the County of Harris. Grayson is a 5,880 square foot metal building, and Baldree is a 10,507 square foot metal building. The community center was constructed in the 1980s and is open to the public daily providing a variety of recreational classes including performing arts, dancing, and fine arts. The community center provides safe, healthy, and fun experiences for residents of all ages in the North Channel area.

Expected Impact:
This court action would allow specification discrepancies, and it would be more difficult to remodel facility in compliance with Harris County Engineering specifications.

Alternative Options:
Should we not move forward with this court action the project will incur significant costs and construction delays to Harris County.
