Council Awards a Contract to Texas Standard Construction for the Les Lacs Pond Improvements Project

At its August 27 meeting, the City Council approved a contract with Texas Standard Construction for the construction of the Les Lacs Pond Improvement Project Phase 1. Some of the most notable improvements include the following:

• A 2' deep clay liner constructed of native clay which will last in perpetuity and will never need replacement.
• Pond deepening of 50% of the pond to a maximum depth of 8'.
• Three Otterbine aerating fountains, Comet model with Fountain Glo Light system.
• Two Otterbine high-volume aeration units each with a 4-light set.
• Wildlife protection cage over the 5' x 5' outlet at the north end of the pond.
• Wildlife relocation and silt removal. 

Work on Phase 1 is expected to begin in mid to late September and is anticipated to take approximately six months. Phase 2, which will address landscaping and irrigation around the pond, will be bid separately and will commence following the completion of the pond work. Phase 2 is expected to take four to five months to complete.
