Formal procurement records

No currently-active master agreement in the city’s Active Contracts dataset names this vendor. That’s common and doesn’t mean the money is untracked — large payments are often made via delivery orders under a master agreement that has since expired (the city only publishes active ones), by a joint-venture / related legal entity different from the contracting firm, or they’re a transfer, debt-service, grant, or direct disbursement with no procurement contract at all. To chase the scope, search Austin Finance Online Contracts and the Council records for “LOWER COLORADO RIVER AUTHORITY” using the links below.

How the City books these payments

Verify at the source

Reading the source-doc column below: a CT number is a contract (it links straight to the contract record). A DO (delivery order) is an internal payment reference against a master agreement — those numbers are not searchable in the solicitations portal, so to find the scope, search Austin Finance Online by vendor name (“LOWER COLORADO RIVER AUTHORITY”) under Contracts, or use the Council-records search above.
