The project consists of the installation of a decorative lighting system along South <br />Broadway (old SH 146) from Dwire Drive to Fairmont Parkway. Since the South Broadway right-of-way <br />(ROW) is maintained by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), it is necessary to enter into <br />an agreement with TxDOT allowing for the installation of decorative lighting system within the South <br />Broadway right-of-way. <br />The proposed agreement places ownership and maintenance responsibilities upon the City of La Porte, <br />and allows for the construction, maintenance, and operation of the pedestrian lighting system along <br />South Broadway. The agreement must be accompanied either by a resolution or an ordinance passed <br />by the City. <br />RECOMMENDED MOTION <br />I move to adopt Resolution 2019-18 authorizing the City of La Porte to enter into <br />an agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) allowing for <br />the installation of a decorative lighting system along the sidewalk within the <br />Broadway (Old SH 146) right-of-way (ROW). <br />Approved for the City Council meeting agenda <br />Corby D.
