Investigate Houston concrete contractor settlement delay

Context: City Council said the item had not been received on April 8, then adopted the $416,375.78 settlement agreements 15-0 on April 22.

Recommended: Request the April 8 submission or transmittal record and the executed settlement, release, and indemnity agreements for Southern Brothers Concrete and J.P. Sewer Main Repair & Drain Specialist LLC. The matter appeared twice, first unavailable to Council and then adopted two weeks later; without these records, the reason for the delay and the obligations exchanged for the Enterprise Fund payment remain unclear.
