Background and Discussion:
This interlocal agreement with the City of Houston will grant the Flood Control District construct and maintain easements over the proposed Meyergrove phase 2 Detention Basin on City right-of-way located at North Braeswood Boulevard and Frankway Drive. The wet-bottom basin will include a maintenance path/trail, and relocation of an electric pole and communication lines. The basin has been designed to avoid impacts to the two sanitary sewers and manholes on the project site. Funding will be provided by FEMA, under the same authority used for the nearby Meyergrove Detention Basin (D500-11-00-E001).
