ADMINISTRATIVE COMMENTS:

 

As the City prepares for the possibility of annexation of Castle Hills various analyses and assessments of the impact of taking on the maintenance and operations of this additional area are being conducted.    Before acquisition occurs, understanding what will be inherited is paramount.  HDR Engineering, Inc. has been asked to perform condition assessments on the existing water and wastewater facilities in Castle Hills, determine whether they will meet future capacity needs for the area, and to develop an operating strategy for the pressure zone to ensure a smooth transition. Additional modeling will be required to determine potential improvements to address future demands.

 

RECOMMENDATION:

 

That the City Council approve the agreement as set forth in the caption above; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.
