Background and Discussion:

The project is located in northeast Harris County in the San Jacinto watershed with a small portion in the Cedar Bayou watershed. It is to the south of Barrett Road, east of Crosby-Lynchburg Road, and north of Cottontail Drive. The existing drainage system is roadside ditches. The proposed improvements are to regrade roadside ditches, upsize culverts to increase capacity, and to construct a detention pond for mitigation.

 

The change in contract includes the following:

 

The line items are adjusted to reconcile overrun and add new line items on the project for completion of the proposed scope of work.

• The increase of quantities on overrun line items number 36A, 42A, 60A, 63A, 64A, 75, 75A, 76A, 84A, 88A, for an addition in the amount of $323,302.80.

• The decrease in quantities on underrun line items number 36, 42, 60, 63, 64, 75, 76, 84, 88, 118 and 500 for a deduction in the amount of $296,597.60.

 

New Line Items:

 

• Added new line item number 76B - Deduction overpaid Removal and Reinstallation -6' Chain Link Fencing for a deduction in the amount of $817.00.

• Added new line item number 121 - Tree removal for an addition in the amount of $17,741.92.

• Added new line item number 122 - Furnish and installation of 6 custom made Wood /Chain Link Fence gates for an addition in the amount of $16,535.06.

• Added new line item number 123 - Removal and Dispose - Wood Fencing for an addition in the amount of $1,981.20.

 

The above additions result in a net change in the amount of $62,146.38 and zero (0) calendar days.

 

Expected Impact:

This project seeks to reduce flooding and strengthen resiliency in Harris County by assisting in the alleviation of structural flood damage to homes in the Barrett Station (Phase 2 Barrett Settlement & St. Charles Place) subdivision.
