The list from the city's capital projects director Jennifer Cain, began with the timeline to expand the section of Greens Prairie Road that is in Brazos County, which the county previously agreed to pay the city to administer.
Mayor John Nichols asked city manager Bryan Woods to check with county officials if they would increase their contribution of the project cost, which is now estimated at $6.3 million dollars. The city's agreement calls for the county to pay around $4.5 million.
Cain also provided an update on separated bike lanes coming to George Bush Drive between Texas and Wellborn. She said the bike lanes have been designed and the Texas Department of Transportation is scheduled to let the construction contract in July.
Rebuilding Krenek Tap Road, which includes replacing storm and sewer lines and adding sidewalks, is scheduled to start sometime this fall.
Replacing tennis courts at Bee Creek Park and Central Park is scheduled to start later this summer.
In July of last year, the College Station city council approved a resolution endorsing private fundraising for an indoor tennis building at Bee Creek Park. Assistant city manager Jennifer Prochazka responded to a council question that the offer has been rescinded.
Construction of new pickleball and futsol courts at Anderson Park is expected to start before the end of this summer.
The council was also told replacement of Bachmann Park little league and senior league buildings is scheduled to start either this July or August, construction of a bus shelter next to city hall is scheduled to start this fall, and construction of fire station seven on Greens Prairie Road is scheduled to start in the spring of 2025.
