Body
Summary:
Vaught Services, LLC has completed the Erin Glen Ct. Storm Sewer Upsizing Project and is thus ready for council acceptance. The original contract amount was $242,560.50 however due to underage the final construction cost was $237,825.50. As per contract, the City of Deer Park/Owner retained $11,891.28, release pending upon approval of council.
The outfall pipe that drained Erin Glen Ct. was undersized which caused flooding, even on small rain events. This project upsized the outfall pipe and added additional inlet capacity, which drastically improved the flooding issues that have been occurring on the street. The outfall pipe was installed two days before Hurricane Harvey made landfall and resulted in zero homes on the street receiving water.
