Title
Consider and take action to approve  a  release of service area for water and sanitary utilities to Galveston County Water Control and Improvement District Number 1, for the service area of: lots 1A, 2A, 3A & 2 of Monsant Villas (Bess Road #1060, #1070, #1080 & #1090) (Deputy City Manager)   
 
Background:
Approval of this item will allow for an extension of public water and sanitary facilities from Galveston County Water Control and Improvement District Number 1 (WCID Number 1) to the applicant lot owners subject to the conditions listed below.  Extension of the WCID Number 1 will require approximately 500 feet of infrastructure extensions. Service from the City would require an extension from Walker Street for a total of approximately 950 feet.  The use of WCID Number 1 is a more cost effective method to extend public infrastructure.
 
This release of services will provide assurance to the applicants and WCID Number 1 that the City is willing to release this "service area," for water and sanitary utility extensions, provided the following conditions are met:
 
1.      WCID Number 1 provides to the Deputy City Manager - Public Works a binding contract with the applicants for utility extensions and service connections, with a completion schedule
2.      WCID Number 1 provides to the Deputy City Manager - Public Works a contract for release of service area for execution by the City Manager
3.      WCID Number 1 provides to the Deputy City Manager - Public Works documentation of their recordation with the TCEQ of the Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) boundary change
4.      If service to these lots is not completed by WCID No. 1 on December 31, 2017, this conditional release of service area expires
