Amandera Section 6 Landscape

Fort Bend County is requesting bids on landscape construction for Amandera Section 6 in Richmond, Texas, with proposals due October 6, 2026. This is a private developer project (Taylor Morrison of Texas, Inc.) being bid through the county.

The scope encompasses comprehensive hardscape and landscape installation: concrete trails in 5-foot and 6-foot widths; grading and excavation with specified drainage requirements including control and expansion joints; site sleeves for irrigation, fountain, and drainage infrastructure; and planting across three layout and material plan sheets. The contractor must meet minimum gradient specifications (0.5 percent for subsurface lines, 1 percent for paved surfaces, 2 percent for lawns), ensure ADA compliance along all access routes, and implement protective measures for existing trees including hand excavation under tree driplines and radial excavation around trunks. The contractor is responsible for locating and protecting all existing utilities, obtaining CAD layout files from the landscape architect (The Jones on Main / SWA Group, Houston), staking all hardscape elements per survey, and coordinating field work with the landscape architect for field review and approval prior to construction. All debris from grading and excavation must be disposed of off-site at the contractor's cost.

The contractor must notify Texas One-Call at 811 at least 48 hours before construction near utility and pipeline easements and contact Taylor Morrison of Texas, Inc. at 1-281-598-3000 with the same advance notice. Irrigation design is provided by M2M Irrigation Design, Katy, Texas. The bid documents were issued September 23, 2026.
