$5,591,888.00 with S.J. Louis Construction of Texas, Ltd. (City Secretary Contract No. 53962) for Sanitary Sewer Main M-280-B Rehabilitation
Project Located in Gateway Park. The contract was subsequently revised by Change Order No. 1 with zero cost administratively authorized

*Numbers rounded for presentation purposes.
Business Equity: S.J. Louis Construction Of Texas, Ltd. agrees to maintain its initial M/WBE commitment of seven percent that it made on the
original contract and extend and maintain that same M/WBE commitment of seven percent to all prior change orders up to and inclusive of this
Change Order No. 3 Therefore S.J. Louis Construction of Texas, Ltd. remains in compliance with the City's M/WBE Ordinance and attests to its
commitment by its signature on the Acceptance of Previous M/WBE Commitment form executed by an authorized representative of its company.
Approval of recommendation No. 3 would adjust appropriations between the programmable project and convert the Sanitary Sewer Main M-280-B
Rehabilitation project (City Project No. C01286) into a static capital project. This action is needed as future funding for the Sanitary Sewer Main M-
280-B Rehabilitation project (City Project No. C01286) is anticipated from other funding sources and the scope of this project differs from that of
the current programmable project.
This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 4
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are currently available in the Water & Sewer Fund and upon approval of the above recommendations
and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances, funds will be available in the W&S Capital Projects Fund for the VC Odor Control
Improvements project. Prior to an expenditure being incurred, the Water Department has the responsibility of verifying the availability of funds.
