DEER PARK COMMUNITY CENTER/POOL HOUSE
City Staff is in the process of negotiating terms of a professional services contract with Brinkley Sargent Wigington architects to provide services for the architectural design of the new Community/Recreation Center and Pool Bathhouse. Discussion is also underway of using an alternative construction delivery process involving use of a construction manager at risk for this project. At a public hearing conducted during the July 26, 2021 Deer Park Community Development Corporation quarterly meeting, Staff presented proposed projects including the Community/Recreation and Bathhouse project. Staff plans to next seek authorization from the DPCDC to recommend to City Council for approval of the architectural services contract and to seek authorization to issue a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the construction manager at risk.

DOW PARK BRIDGES PHASE III
The Department has just completed phase 2 of 4 phases that will have replaced (4) four 8’ X 23’ galvanized bridges. The Department added (2) more bridges to the FY 20-21 budget and will begin work on those in the late summer of 2021. This will replace (6) six of the (8) eight bridges in Dow Park being planned. We are proposing to replace the last two bridges in FY 21-22.
SPENCERVIEW BRIDGE/ BASEBALL COMPLEX
The Spencerview Baseball Complex has been completed. Work continues on gaining access for a bridge to future parking in an adjacent City Park area along Glenwood Drive. City staff is working on an easement with the adjacent property owner to gain and use access for the bridge construction and alignment. A survey TOPO of the property needs to be completed to identify property lines to complete this process. City staff is meeting with a vendor to discuss the bridge that will cross from Spencerview Athletic Complex into a new undeveloped park. Harris County Flood Control will still need to review all documents and approve before the construction of the bridge.
