Background and Discussion:

This acquisition is the culmination of an interlocal agreement with the City of Houston. The City purchased the Biscayne Apartments at 17030-17050 Imperial Valley Drive in Houston with GLO funding due to multiple repetitive floods and the continued high risk of flooding. Under the ILA, the Flood Control District would provide half of the total funding for the project, what was completed. The agreement with the City stipulates that once the Flood Control District’s funding obligation was met, the City would transfer ownership to the Flood Control District to construct and maintain a stormwater detention basin.

 

Expected Impact:

The construction of a stormwater detention basin on this property will reduce area flood risks during flood events and will significantly mitigate these impacts in the area once completed.

 

Alternative Options:

If the Court does not approve this item, the terms of the ILA cannot be completed, and the Flood Control District will be in breach of the agreement that was previously approved by Commissioners Court in 2021.

 

County Strategic Plan Goal:  2. Connect our community with safe, reliable, equitably distributed, and well-maintained infrastructure.

County Strategic Plan Objective: H: Improve the condition and resilience of County transportation, flood control, and other infrastructure.
