A non-mandatory pre-bid conference will be held on January 6, 2026, at 10:00 AM CST, providing potential bidders an opportunity to obtain project clarifications. Evaluation criteria will include purchase price, bidder reputation, quality of work, past performance, and alignment with municipal needs, with the contract awarded to the most responsive and responsible bidder offering the best overall value. Bidders must provide a 5% bid security and demonstrate experience through a contractor reference list highlighting similar municipal infrastructure projects completed in Texas.

The project has an expected duration of 60 calendar days, with liquidated damages of $500 per calendar day assessed for timeline non-compliance.
