BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

As part of an agreement with Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority (GBRA) approved by City Council on March 9, 2020, the City paid for an off-site sewer easement, design work, and a portion of new sewer main lines that would serve the Zipp Family Sports Park. In the agreement, connection fees were called out as a future expense the City would be responsible to pay once the Zipp Family Sports Park was constructed and tied into the GBRA owned sewer lines.

SpawGlass General Contractors has constructed and completed all on-site sewer lines and made the tie-in to the GBRA sewer main line. The connection fee invoice has been submitted to the City from GBRA for $55,200.
