title
Request for approval to reject the bid(s) received for detention pond enhancement at Goforth Park for Precinct 3, and that the project be readvertised at a later date (230464).
end
Background and Discussion:
Harris County desires to reject the bid received by CE Barker Ltd. and re-advertise the construction of the project with revised specifications. Only one bid was received and it was nearly three times the amount of the engineer's estimate. Therefore the project specifications are being revised and the project is to be re-advertised. The goal of the project is to reduce area flood risk by maximizing the detention volume prior to rain event.
Expected Impact:
The project intends to reduce area flood risk by maximizing the detention volume prior to rain event.
Alternative Options:
If no action is taken, the public may experience greater flood risk than if the action is taken.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
_ Transportation
X Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
