Harris County commissioners voted in November to hire a new contractor to operate Sylvan Beach Pavilion in La Porte and terminate the prior operator. Frida Villalobos, spokeswoman for Commissioner Adrian Garcia, said previously scheduled events will proceed as planned.
Harris County will issue new bids and hire a new operator soon. Construction starts early 2020 on signals and turn lanes at Wallisville and Wade Road, Thompson Road and FM 2100. A larger 2021 project aims to widen Wallisville Road from Garth Road to North Main Street to five lanes with storm sewer drainage, pending completion of a San Jacinto River Authority sipho n widening project.
Commissioner Garcia responds to late vote results and the Baytown Community Center polling location closing without notice. Villalobos says he praised the clerk’s office for doing a great job despite last minute challenges.
Baytown officials marked the completion of the Garth Road boulevard with praise for Ron Davis and project partners. The ceremony highlighted financing via TIRZ Certificates of Obligation, contracts to Angel Brothers for Phase 1 and 2, and design by Kimley-Horn. City leaders emphasized improved traffic flow, retail potential, and future development as residents are invited to use the new route toward Sam Houston statue and local landmarks. Over 3,000 greeting cards were prepared by city employees for overseas troops and local groups.
