Texas Patriot Contracting will work on interior and exterior projects, and Bee Cave Drilling will work on the wells on the property, according to the City Council meeting agenda.
The motion was passed as part of the consent agenda in the meeting, therefore, City Council did not discuss the item except to approve it along with the other items in that section.
Zooming in
The Mason Homestead—an 1860s-era house and property that has been restored in the city—hasn’t been repaired or renovated since 2010, and it needs maintenance in order to be used as a public rental space moving forward, according to the agenda.
The two wells at the homestead are starting to fail, it said, and Bee Cave Drilling recommended filling and sealing them in order to maintain a safe site.
