One project begins at <br />Baypark Road on Fairmont Parkway, and ends at Driftwood. Another project is one block <br />south of FairmOllt Parkway and connects existing water lines from 16th Street to 18th Street. <br />The third project replaces about 400 feet of undersized water line along Texas Avenue just <br />north of Fairmont Parkway. Design and engineering were performed on this project <br />utilizing City staff.
