Background and Discussion:

The Memorial Parkway Subdivision is in Katy, Texas, northwest Harris County. The existing drainage system for this subdivision is located in the Barker Reservoir (subbasin T103A) and generally drains northwest to southeast. There are fourteen individual storm sewer systems within the neighborhood which mostly outfall to the T103-00-00 channel. The existing system does not have sufficient capacity to convey a 2-year storm event. Previous study alternatives were not feasible due to a need for mitigation or posing an adverse impact to the downstream.

 

A recommended alternative includes replacing and upsizing storm sewer and inlets in the neighborhood street area, outfall pipe from the new storm sewer to T103-00-00 south/downstream of the Highland Knolls Drive culverts and improve T103-00-00 at two locations will be analyzed further. This analysis will include field investigations not previously performed, and hydraulic analysis for the new underground system configuration, and for the T103-00-00 channel.

 

The Memorial Parkway Subdivision Project was listed as Table 3 per February 21, 2023, directive from Harris County Commissioners Court and Precinct 4 is funding the rest of the project.

 

Expected Impact:

Prepare a drainage improvement study within Memorial Parkway Subdivision to evaluate alternatives that will reduce flooding in the community. This amendment is funded by Precinct 4.

 

Alternative Options:

Without this project the new drainage improvements in Memorial Parkway Subdivision will not be realized as requested by Precinct 4.
