from SBC. Based on the new revised estimate from SBC, the total estimated funding
required is $4,447,559. The costs are broken down by the City of Round Rock and Others
as detailed on the attached summary.
As previously discussed, we are anticipating the transfer of $4,447,559. This utility work is
