Summary
On March 19, 2014, the City of Pflugerville and Manville executed a Contract for the Purchase and Sale of Wholesale Water, for the Termination of Pre-Existing Contracts, and related matters.

As a part of negotiations the City agreed to construction of infrastructure to implement the contract, by which the city would fund the water line to meet the infrastructure to implement this contract as stated in section 2.03. The City is to reimburse Manville for the full cost of the work when it is complete and accepted by Manville. City staff budgeted for this project in the 5-year CIP plan and will be funded through the utility fund balance.
The project included 6,800 linear feet of twelve inch water line infrastructure to transport six hundred eighty five thousand (685,000) gallons of water per day from the Manville Church meter, along Pflugerville Parkway, to the east side of FM 685.
