City council approves bids for emergency well repair and radio units
The council considers four bids for work on a failed well at Riggs and Lee Drive with Singer-Layne Texas handling the emergency repairs, estimating total cost around 325 060 including new equipment and a pump producing 1.15 million gallons per day. Three Motorola portable units are approved for the Harris County lab using federal and state funds, though RCA units would require costly adaptations. Downtown Improvement Project final payment to Warren Brothers exceeds bid due to sidewalk overrun, financed by federal revenue sharing funds with overruns covered by underrun in other projects.
