Subject:

Discussion and possible action authorizing the transfer of funds in an amount of Seventy-One Thousand Dollars ($71,000.00) from (Acct: #1001-1130-001-431007-010; Operational Reserve) to (Acct: #3180-470000-165; Flood Study/Drainage Improvement) for the purpose of implementing the first phase of improvements by developing engineering plans and specifications for Culvert #4 and associated roadway improvements as needed to enhance emergency services that were identified in the Master Drainage Plan for U.S. Highway 59 Colonias; and authorizing the County Judge to sign all relevant documents; and any other matter incident thereto. [Sponsored by Commissioner John Galo and requested by the Planning Department; Account #1001-1130-001-431007-010 Operational Reserve to Account #3180-470000-165 Flood Study/Drainage Improvement]

Issue: As noted in agenda Item 28 dated October 9, 2018 the remaining balance of account #3180-470000-165 is insufficient to fund the professional service engineering plans and specifications for Culvert #4 and associated roadway improvements.

Solutions: Transfer the necessary funds from Acct: 1001-1130-001-431007-010; Operational Reserve to Acct: #3180-470000-165; Flood Study/Drainage Improvement to make the project “shovel ready”.

Result: Residents of Webb County Colonias will have a shovel ready project that will provide better access to emergency exits during inclement weather and provide access routes for emergency responders.
