Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval to decree that the Harris County Flood Control District project serves a public purpose and public necessity, which requires that the Harris County Real Property Division be directed to acquire one fee simple tract for the public project known as Keegans Bayou Drainage Improvements near Beltway 8 and West Airport Road, for the purpose of channel conveyance improvements, authorizing eminent domain if necessary (Brays Bayou Watershed, Bond ID F-07, Project ID D118-02-00-E001, Precinct 4).
end
Background and Discussion:
This is a request to approve right-of-way acquisition for a project that was recommended and outlined in the Keegans Bayou Watershed Planning Study and is currently in the preliminary engineering stage. The recommended alternative consists of a series of detention basins along D118-02-00 and increasing the size of the existing storm sewer line under Beltway 8 draining to D118-02-00.
Expected Impact:
The recommended project provides stormwater detention along D118-02-00 and benefits residential areas along both sides of Beltway 8 north of West Airport Road. These improvements also reduce peak flows to Keegans Bayou from D118-02-00.
Alternative Options:
The alternative to approving this item would be to deny this request which will delay progress on this project.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
