CITY COUNCIL COULD BE LATEST TO OPPOSE ‘BLUBONNET HAVEN’

  

The Brenham City Council appears to be ready to issue a resolution opposing the Bluebonnet Haven Residential Facility at their meeting today.

On the agenda for the meeting is discussion and possible action on resolution opposing the center.  Bluebonnet Haven is currently under construction on Highway 36 South of Brenham and could begin housing troubled teens in the fall of this year.  The Washington County Commissioners and the Brenham I.S.D. Board of Trustees both approved their own resolutions opposing the facility at their most recent meetings.

Council members will also consider awarding a bid for repairs to Higgins Branch in Henderson Park.  The embankments along Higgins Branch were destroyed in the May 2016 flooding.  They will also consider making the final payments for the repairs to the Higgins Branch crossing at Jefferson Street and the storm damage repairs on Barbee Street.

Councilmembers will also consider an ordinance prohibiting U-Turns at certain crossings on Highway 290 at the Highway 36 North Crossover.  They will also consider awarding a bid for the parking lot improvements for the All Sports Building at Hohlt Park.

Brenham City Council meets today at 1:00 PM on the second floor of City Hall.
