title
Request for approval of a change in contract with Texas Materials Group, Inc. in connection with Louetta Bridge at Little Cypress Creek (Seg 2), adding 18 calendar days, with an addition in the amount of $196,204.86, Job No. 20/0136-2, UPIN 18103MF0RY01, Precinct 3.

Background and Discussion:
Project includes construction of Louetta Road from Stablewood Farms Dr. to Telge Road across Little Cypress Creek (L100-00-00). Change includes new inlet and re-grading around headwalls to facilitate drainage, lowering the outfall at Little Cypress Creek, adjusting headwall height and adding pedestrian rail on Precinct 4 side of bridge.
Expected Impact:
Change facilitates drainage around the new bridge and into the outfall at Little Cypress Creek as well as improves safety for the travelling public. It also increases the estimated amounts of several existing items to allow the project to be constructed as shown in the design plans.
Alternative Options:
Leave the concerns over drainage and pedestrian safety unaddressed. Redesign and/or reduce the scope of the project to allow the project to be constructed without increasing the estimated amounts.
