Background Information:
The attached change in service for $194,331.99 to Agreement 2025-097 with Weston Solutions will provide engineering design services for the 60%, 90% & 100% phases as well as bidding phase services for the City of San Marcos related to the Lift Station 23 Improvements project which is located along IH 35 near the Blanco River.
This scope of work is based on the recommendations detailed in the Technical Memorandum provided as required in the initial scope of the agreement. The project scope includes the design of station upgrades to support new replacement pumps that will be rated to handle future lift station flows, associated electrical improvements, a new generator and other site enhancements.
This project was identified as a priority in the 2025 wastewater master plan to address current and future capacity issues identified due to the growth north and east of the Blanco River.
Preliminary construction costs are estimated at approximately $2 million. Construction is expected to begin late 2026/early 2027.
