Background and Discussion:
Precinct 3 will utilize this Community Project Funding grant to reconstruct two distinct locations in far east Harris County - Mobile Homes Parkland and Patiowoods. The Mobile Homes Parkland scope of work reconstructs Lochness Dr and Greenbow Lane from a gravel road with undefined drainage to an asphalt roadway with a roadside ditch and driveway culverts. The proposed scope of work occurs within an existing right-of-way. The Patiowoods scope of work reconstructs approximately 1,750 feet of failing, substandard concrete pavement with a concrete curb and gutter roadway with storm sewer.
This grant award was approved at Commissioners Court on August 07, 2025, however there were 10 missing pages that had originally been approved by the County Attorney’s Office for submission. These pages included the Assurances-Construction Programs, Disclosure of Lobbying Activities, Notice of Award, and the SF-424 Application for Federal Assistance.
Expected Impact:
Reconstructed roads will improve safety, ensure homes are accessible by emergency vehicles, and improve drainage in these neighborhoods.
Alternative Options:
None
