Much as before he trained this team to maintain equipment and become highly recognized and sought out for by upper level management.

The bridge has been closed to vehicle traffic for about nine years. Some council members and citizens may recall the extensive community interest in this bridge between 2015 and 2019, when it was decided that the city and/or county would not pursue an alternate and costly means of developing a new river crossing, and would not abandon the 1904 Bridge. Since its partial restoration and rededication in 1994, it has been in a state of declining repair, with no record of maintenance done ini these past 30 years. While the bridge remains open to pedestrian traffic today, there is an increasing concern that it may fail catastrophically under even these reduced loads. During eclipse planning in March 2024, TXDOT provided the City with a 2019 bridge inspection report and stated plainly, in writing, that they would not To better understand the current common uses of the bridge, City Manager Hunt directed staff toi install game cameras on1 the bridge for four weeks between September and October. In that time, the cameras documented well over 200 crossings by walkers, bicyclists, and even motorcyclists.

The City received a total of $3,078,866.37 in CLFRF funds int two tranches, the last being June 30, 2022. Recipients mayi invest in water, sewer, and broadband infrastructure, making necessary investments to improve access to clean drinking water, to support vital wastewater and stormwater infrastructure, and to expand affordable access to broadband internet. Recipients must obligate SLFRF funds by December 31, 2024, and expend obligated funds by December 31, 2026. The City has previously obligated $2,605,771.64 of the $3,078,866.37 CLFRF funds. Staff is recommending the City obligate the remaining $473,094.73 towards a sewer gravity main replacement project on HWY36. An Opinion of Probable cost was completed by FNI for this project in the amount of $531,016. Staff believes that the total cost will be less than $531,016, but any additional funds beyond $473,094.73 required for the project are available.

Information:  In. January of 2024, a professional services agreement not to exceed $49,980 was entered into with Freese & Nichols for on call planning services and in June of 2024 that agreement was amended to add $30,000. Due to a large influx of projects that had arrived prior to September, those funds have been used and Staff is requesting an additional $30,000 to have on hand for on-call planning and development review services. Staff are working to reduce these services with in-house review and therefore reduce the financial impact, however, there may be ai time that their services are needed again. This amendment is more of safety net to guarantee the services are available instead of an on-going expenditure and Staff is working to add third-party review costs to the fee schedule to be reimbursed by the developer for future projects.
