Attorney

Check Pecan Hollow erosion contract for Texas bid-law compliance

Why now: The contract appeared before Council twice within five weeks (May 26, July 1, 2026), a pattern consistent with an unexplained post-award amendment rather than a routine award.

What to do: Pull the dollar figures from the May 26 and July 1 staff reports and compare them — if the July 1 appearance reflects a change order that increased the original contract price by more than 25%, Texas Local Government Code §252.048 required new competitive bidding rather than a Council amendment vote.

Act before: After next hearing on this item

Investigate why Pecan Hollow golf erosion contract returned twice

Why now: The matter appeared before City Council twice, five weeks apart (May 26 and July 1, 2026), with no stated reason in the available record.

What to do: Pull and compare the City Council staff reports from the May 26 and July 1 meetings to see whether the erosion control contract was pulled, amended, or contested — the public record gives no explanation for why it came back five weeks later.

Act before: After records request response (typically 10 business days)
