THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Blair staff propose an on-call agreement with Houston Engineering for flood and FEMA-related erosion issues from the August 2025 storms. The agreement covers site evaluations, CORPS concerns, repair vs mitigation cost estimates, and documentation to secure FEMA assistance, with a not-to-exceed amount of $150,000. This creates a defined scope of technical and grant-compliance work where Houston is the incumbent, and other firms can watch for follow-on construction, mitigation projects, and specialized services once sites and funding are defined.
Funds will come from various departments’ professional services accounts, and FEMA may reimburse costs tied to approved projects. Houston is already working on the Cauble Creek project.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
