Background and Discussion:
This utility service will provide gas service to the new Central Tolling Structures that are to be constructed as part of the Barrier Free Program located at 5635 1/2 W Sam Houston Pkwy N, Houston, TX 77041.

services is more than the estimated cost, CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp will invoice the difference which
would require a future Court action.

Expected Impact:

minimizing the risk of construction delays for the Construction Project.
