Request for approval to decree that the Harris County Flood Control District project serves a public purpose and public necessity, which requires that the Harris County Real Property Division be directed to acquire one fee simple tract for the public project known as Countywide General Acquisition for the purpose of floodplain preservation (San Jacinto River Watershed, Bond ID Z-01, Project ID Z100-00-00-R008, Countywide).

Purchase of these properties will restore them to their natural function as a floodplain.
