Background and Discussion:
In February of 2022, Harris County's Contractor inadvertently removed a Harris County Water Control Independent District 1's sanitary sewer line from Harris County Right of Way during construction of the Crosby Lynchburg Road Phase 4 Reconstruction Project. The Right of Way area is currently crowded with other utilities to reinstall a new sanitary sewer line and keep 4 ft. away from an existing water line as required by code.
