The Munson Avenue Rehabilitation project for the City of College Station was a capital project to rebuild a 3,500-foot section of the street through a sensitive, 70-year-old neighborhood, including the replacement of multiple buried utilities. The prime contractor chosen for this project was Binkley & Barfield | DCCM with Baseline | DCCM (a Binkley & Barfield | DCCM sister company) as the project surveyor due to their extensive work history in the area and excellent reputation.

The City of College Station’s primary goal was to have all aspects of the project, from surveying through construction, be performed with minimal inconvenience to the residents and minimal disturbance to nearby trees. Before surveying began, a public meeting was held to explain the project to the residents and let them know that utility marks would be first and that the surveyors would soon follow. In addition to the meeting, notice cards were distributed in the neighborhood explaining that the survey crew would sometimes need to park in private driveways and set tripods on lawns. The 2-week topographic portion of the surveying was performed without incident, and no calls of concern were received from residents.
