Background and Discussion:

BetterStreets2Neighborhoods initiative throughout the Baytown North Area in Harris County Precinct 2. This includes total pavement and pavement subgrade reconstruction in some areas requiring major attention, and preventative maintenance in other areas requiring minor attention.

 

 

Expected Impact:

Maintaining these roadways will improve pavement conditions, thereby improving mobility and safety for all road users. This purchase order will ensure that all construction materials used in the project are of acceptable quality as required by state law.

 

 

 

Alternative Options:

Construction materials testing is required by state law. Thus, alternatives include issuing a purchase order for similar services to a different vendor or cancelling this construction project.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

Justice and Safety

Economic Opportunity
