The Developer will obtain all necessary permits and approvals from the City and all other governmental officials and agencies having jurisdiction (including the approvals required under the La Porte Agreement), provide supervision of all phases of construction of the Public Improvements, provide periodic reports as requested and required by the La Porte Authority of such construction to the La Porte Board with copies to the City, and cause the construction to be performed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications. 4.2 Design of the Public Improvements. Prior to the commencement of construction or implementation of the Public Improvements, the Plans and Specifications must be submitted to and approved by the City and all other regulatory authorities having jurisdiction. Once the City has approved the Plans and Specifications, no changes thereto can be made without the express written approval of the City, the Zone Board, and the La Porte Authority. Both Port Crossing and Lakes at Fairmont Greens have taken bids in anticipation of securing final approval from the City, Harris County Infrastructure, Harris County Flood Control and TxDOT. Unfortunately, neither project has received full 100% approval although each is close. Since the Board/Authority is meeting to approve the annual budget on September 13, I decided to place the approval of bids on the agenda on a "conditional basis". If the Board/Authority approves conditionally, then this might save some time when the other agencies have acted.
