Background and Discussion:

On January 29, 2013, Commissioners Court approved agreements with Texas Department of Transportation for contribution of funds for the acquisition of right-of-way and adjustment of utilities necessary for highway improvements on segments of US-290.  Agreements were executed for five (5) separate segments of the project (ROW CSJ #0050-06-077 for West of Mason to East of Mueschke; #0050-08-096 for West of Eldridge to West of FM 529; #0050-09-083 for West of FM 529 to East of Little York; #0050-09-084 for FM 529 to Little York-1, and #3256-01-101 for West Little York to North of US 290).

 

An amendment to the agreements is now necessary to reflect the final funds participation of Harris County and remove any obligations to contribute additional funds beyond the fixed sum already contributed.  All other provisions of the original agreements are unchanged and remain in effect.

 

The amendments set Harris County’s contribution at the following fixed total sum for each segment:

-                     ROW CSJ #0050-06-077 for West of Mason to East of Mueschke - $305,000.00,

-                     ROW CSJ #0050-08-096 for West of Eldridge to West of FM 529 - $2,155,000.00,

-                     ROW CSJ #0050-09-083 for West of FM 529 to East of Little York - $4,562.500.00,

-                     ROW CSJ #0050-09-084 for FM 529 to Little York-1 - $1.024,000.00, and

-                     ROW CSJ #3256-01-101 for West Little York to North of US 290 - $1,342,500.00.

 

Expected Impact:

Approval of amendments will allow for closure of this agreement.

 

Alternative Options:

No other recommended solutions for this identified need.
