Overview
The Board awarded the sale of the $9,000,000 Series 2026 Unlimited Tax Road Bonds to UMB Bank, N.A. at a net effective interest rate of 4.581163% and adopted the bond resolution and related documents. It approved a 24-month lift station electricity contract with NRG at $0.073870 per kilowatt hour, subject to finalization, a Depository Pledge Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, and collection of 2025 delinquent taxes by the delinquent tax attorney. The Board approved a $46,920.00 Storm Water Solutions proposal for maintenance of three more swales and awarded the Section 26 paving contract to Beyer Construction, LLC for $724,552.45. It also approved three pay estimates, abandoned three temporary easements, and authorized geotechnical services for western boundary repairs not to exceed $15,000.00.
Questions to check (6)
A construction contract was awarded. Competitive bidding (Water Code §49.273) and a certificate of interested parties for contracts that need board approval (Gov't Code §2252.908, Form 1295).
Records that would answer it: the bid tabulation and the number of bids received for Dunham Pointe Section 26 paving; the signed contract for Dunham Pointe Section 26 paving; the contractor's Form 1295 certificate of interested parties.
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 Mason Road at Dunham Pointe Section 1 and Section, with quantities and the engineer's certification; the pay estimate for Dunham Pointe Section 18 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.
The engineer or another consultant was authorized to do new work. Professional services are chosen on qualifications (Gov't Code ch. 2254). Good practice: approve a scope and fee in writing before work starts.
Records that would answer it: the proposal or task order with its scope and fee for three additional swales; the proposal or task order with its scope and fee for Lake M; the proposal or task order with its scope and fee for construction materials testing.
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.
Land, easements or the district's boundary were acted on. Boundary changes and land transfers affect who pays for what (Water Code §§49.301-49.304).
Records that would answer it: the instruments, petitions and maps for Section 2; any engineer's report on the change.

Review checklist: Approved minutes
Each check names the rule it tests, as the text stood on 2026-06-16, 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.
