Proposed Ordinance No. 21031 -1 authorizes entering into a contract with Harris
County for joint participation between the City of Baytown and Harris County for the
improvement of Baker Road and Park Street. The City's portion is $81,500.00 for
the purchase of materials. The contract provides for no more than a 10% overrun,
or $89,650.00. Mr. Richardson read the caption of the ordinance. Councilman Gentry
moved to adopt the ordinance and Councilman Lander seconded the motion.
Councilman Walker suggested posting signs to the effect that the City is
participating with the County in the improvements.
Mr. Lanham noted that the contract provides for a refund if the full amount
is not expended, and Council will receive an itemized statement of costs. A
