Confirm two-step process for Public Safety Campus contract

Context: Texas Local Government Code Chapter 2269 requires a two-step qualifications-then-price process for CMAR contracts, and this item reached City Council twice — May 26 and July 1, 2026 — a sequence consistent with (but not confirmed as) that statutory process.

Recommended: Pull the procurement file to confirm the city first selected the construction manager based on qualifications, then separately negotiated a guaranteed maximum price, before awarding the $140 million contract; skipping either step exposes the award to a bid protest from a passed-over firm.

Compare May and July votes on Public Safety Campus contract

Context: The $140 million construction manager contract for the Public Safety Campus appeared before City Council twice within five weeks, and the public record does not explain why.

Recommended: Request the staff memos and agenda backup from both the May 26 and July 1, 2026 meetings to find out what changed in the $140 million construction manager award between the two hearings — dollar figure, scope, or negotiated terms the public agenda doesn't explain.
