Background and Discussion:

Harris County Precinct 2 submitted a request to modernize the existing facility to reduce long term maintenance costs and align with the needs of the community to improve the overall user experience. This amendment includes Exhibit A Scope of Services in the professional architectural and engineering services agreement, which was missing in the original agreement approved in 06/11/2026 Court.

 

Expected Impact:

This amendment does not change scope, costs or timeline. Proposal for professional services as already based on Exhibit A Scope of Services. This amendment will make the agreement whole as originally intended.

 

Alternative Options:

If the Court does not approve, this will leave the project with only part of the scope delineated.
