title

Request for approval of an amendment to an agreement with MBCO Engineering, LLC, in the amount of $67,726, to provide additional design, bidding, and construction phase engineering services in support of the College Park Subdivision drainage improvements project (Armand Bayou Watershed, Bond ID Z-02, Project ID B112-03-01-E001, Agreement No. 2022-129, Precinct 2, Justification for 0% MWBE Participation Goal:  0% - Specialized, Technical, or Unique in Nature).

Background and Discussion:

This Amendment will provide design engineering services for College Park Subdivision drainage improvements. This is a Precinct 2 partnership project with the City of Deer Park and is funded via an interlocal agreement. It is in the Sims Bayou watershed and will entail storm sewer system improvements, right-of-way acquisition, and a new stormwater detention basin. This partnership project occurs in the 3rd quartile under the 2022 Prioritization Framework approved by Commissioners Court.

 

 

Expected Impact:

The project seeks to reduce flood risks and strengthen resiliency in the Sims Bayou watershed by reducing flood risk for 42 parcels, 9 structures, 1.82 acres, and 0.32 miles of roadway.

 

Alternative Options:

The alternative to approving this item would be to select a different consultant to complete the design, which would result in a delay of the project.
