title

Request for approval of a utility construction services agreement with CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC, in the amount of $35,202.31, for utility relocations of facilities near HCFCD Unit P118-31-00 and P118-00-00 (Halls Bayou Watershed, Bond ID C-41, Project ID P518-12-00-E001, Agreement No. 2026-82, Precinct 2).

Background and Discussion:

Removal of electric facilities is necessary for construction of the Blue Bell Stormwater Detention Basin West Compartment.  After completion of the construction services, if the estimated cost is less than the estimated amount, CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC will refund or credit the difference.  If actual cost of the construction services is more than the estimated cost, CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC will invoice for the difference which would require a future Court action.

 

Expected Impact:

This removal of the electric facilities will enable construction of the Blue Bell Stormwater Detention Basin West Compartment.

 

Alternative Options:

Construct a smaller, less-effective stormwater detention basin that does not require removal of the electrical facilities.
