Discussion and possible action to authorize the Purchasing Agent to advertise for formal bids for the Pueblo Nuevo Street Improvement Project - Contract CDV21-0485 in accordance with the Texas Government Code, Sub-Chapter C. (Competitive Bidding Method), Section 2269.101 (Contracts for Facilities: Competitive Bidding) and any other matters incident thereto. [Texas Community Development Program (TCDP) Grant Account #3521-7230-001-474502 (Infrastructure in Progress)]

Issue: The streets in Colonia Pueblo Nuevo are deteriorating and unpaved, posing a risk to public safety and causing gridlock in bad weather. The Webb County Engineer has prepared plans and specifications for this road project.

Solution: Obtain Commissioners Court approval to proceed with the formal bid solicitation process.
