Overview

The Board approved a $3,607.00-per-month rental of a mobile generator at lift station no. 1 for hurricane season and asked the operator to bring generator purchase proposals in July. It authorized the delinquent tax attorney to collect 2024 delinquent taxes and approved seven construction pay estimates. The Board adopted a resolution authorizing an application to the TCEQ for bond application no. 4, stated as $10,000,000 for water, sewer, and drainage facilities. Discussion also covered drainage on Arroyo Grande and a proposal for more frequent mowing near lakes, which the attorney said would need HCID 13 approval.

Questions to check (3)

Pay estimates were approved. Each payment should match work completed and inspected. Good practice: compare the cumulative amount paid with the contract.

Records that would answer it: the pay estimate for Dunham Pointe Section 12 paving, with quantities and the engineer's certification; the pay estimate for Dunham Pointe Section 14 water, sanitary sewer and drainage, with quantities and the engineer's certification; the pay estimate for Dunham Pointe Section 14 paving, with quantities and the engineer's certification; the pay estimate for Dunham Pointe Section 15 water, sanitary sewer and drainage, with quantities and the engineer's certification; the pay estimate for Dunham Pointe Section 16 water, sanitary sewer and drainage, with quantities and the engineer's certification; the pay estimate for Dunham Pointe Section 17 paving, with quantities and the engineer's certification; the pay estimate for Dunham Pointe Section 19 water, sanitary sewer and drainage, with quantities and the engineer's certification.

Bills were approved for payment. The check register shows who was paid and how much, including professional fees.

Records that would answer it: the bookkeeper's report and check register for the meeting, with invoices for professional fees over $5,000.

A bond action was taken. Developer reimbursements follow TCEQ's rules on interest, land and proof of payment (30 TAC §§293.50, 293.51, 293.70).

Records that would answer it: the bond documents approved at the meeting; the auditor's developer reimbursement report, if approved; the financial advisor's recommendation and the bid tabulation, if bonds were sold.

Overviews and questions were drafted with AI from each document's text, with page references, and checked against the minutes and financial records. They are starting points to confirm, not findings.

Review checklist: Approved minutes

Each check names the rule it tests, as the text stood on 2025-06-17, and the record that settles it. This record is itself an approving original (the board's own act). "Question" means the record on file doesn't show the rule was followed: a question to confirm, not a finding.
