Background and Discussion:

This project is located at Huffmeister Road and Fallbrook Drive, Houston, TX 77065. The project drains into HCFCD Unit No. E133-00-00. The scope and proposed improvements include providing stormwater detention storage to reduce flooding for subdivisions which drain to E133-00-00 and E133-01-00. It will also serve to mitigate two future drainage improvement projects: (1) within the Barwood Subdivision that ultimately outfalls into E133-00-00 and (2) the future Fallbrook Drive extension to Huffmeister Road to the existing Fallbrook Drive located at the eastern ROW of HCFCD Unit E133-00-00.

 

Expected Impact:

The project seeks to reduce flooding and strengthen resiliency in Harris County by assisting in the alleviation of structural flood damage to homes in the Wortham Estates Subdivision.

 

Alternative Options:

The County could elect to fund the requested task or choose to reject it. However, if not approved, the project

may not be designed as scoped.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health
