The project site is generally bounded by Greens Bayou (P100-00-00) to the west, Spicewood Ln to the north, CE King Parkway to the east and the Beaumont Freeway (Business US 90) to the south. The Ralston Acres subdivision currently includes a mix of single-family and mobile homes on lots ranging between one and two acres as well as commercial and industrial properties near John Ralston Rd. The local drainage system is composed of roadside ditches less than two feet deep and driveways culverts. Proposed improvements include an upgraded storm sewer system and two detention basins.
