The TDLR status is listed as Review Complete, confirming that the regulatory requirements for the accessibility package have been met.

Project Scope and Cost Context

The scope of work is strictly limited to site improvements, specifically the reconfiguration of vehicle access and pedestrian pathways at Colony Meadow Elementary School. The filing lists the square footage as 1 sq ft, reflecting that this is a site-level alteration rather than a structural building expansion. The project involves public funds and public land, aligning with the owner’s status as a public school district.

Compared to the 3,917 renovation and alteration filings in Fort Bend County, this project’s estimated cost is above the county median of $239,500, placing it in the top quarter for its type. The scheduled build window of 264 days is longer than the county median of 92 days, suggesting a more complex timeline for coordinating site logistics and fencing replacement.
