Background and Discussion:

This project is located in northeast Harris County in the Greens Bayou (P100-00-00) watershed, east of John Ralston Road and north of Beaumont Highway. The Houmont Park Subdivision Drainage Improvements - Green River Drive - 2018 project site consists of subdivision drainage improvements and roadway reconstruction located at Green River Drive spanning from the bridge at Greens Bayou (HCFCD Unit No. P100-00-00) to Van Hut Lane; discharging into HCFCD Channels P117-00-00, P110-04-00, and P110-00-00. Major work activities include demolition of the existing asphalt roadway and installation of a 26-foot-wide asphalt roadway. The drainage improvements include installing an underground storm sewer, filling in the existing ditches, and placing shallow swales.

 

The change in contract includes the following:

 

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

 

         The increase in quantities for existing line item 11 for an addition in the amount of $31,740.00 and zero (0) days.

 

New Items:

 

         Add new pay item number 132 - Reconstruction of three existing inlet structures at STA 27+50 RT for an addition in the amount of $2,256.69, and zero (0) days.

         Addition of 45 days to the contract due to utility conflicts, pipeline coordination, and required utility relocations, with no additional cost.

 

The above additions and deductions result in a net change in the amount of $33,996.69 and 45 calendar days.

 

The County issued the Project’s Notice to Proceed on 07/10/2025. Per Attachment M of the Contract, the work was to be completed within 540 days of the Notice to Proceed, or by 01/01/2027.
