Background and Discussion:
This project is located in the Greens Bayou watershed near Highway 90 and Beltway 8. The Beaumont Place
subdivision consists of mainly roadside ditches and has been subjected to several flooding events with the
most recent being Hurricane Harvey (August 2017) and the Tax Day Flood (April 2016). Drainage analysis of the
subdivision began in late 2019 as a part of the 2018 Bond program for subdivision drainage improvements.
The scope and proposed improvements include roadside ditch regrading, driveway culvert upgrades,
expansion of channel along Big Gulch, concrete lined Sulphur Gully channel with reinforced concrete box (RCB)
crossing improvements. Improvements also include multiple detention ponds along Big Gulch with an extreme
event overflow swale towards the upstream portion of the channel.
The Change in contract request includes additional days for the following:
• PCO - 13 Asphalt Paving Typical Section - Added 21 days for an extension of contract time due to the proposed change to a lime stabilized subgrade as part of the asphalt roadway paving. A lime stabilized subgrade in conformance with the geotechnical report recommendation will be installed in lieu of the originally proposed crushed aggregate base course subgrade.
Expected Impact:
This project seeks to reduce flooding and strengthen resiliency in Harris County by assisting in the alleviation of structural flood damage to homes in the Beaumont Place Subdivision.
Alternative Options:
The County could elect to fund the requested task or choose to reject it. However, if not approved, the contractor will not be able to complete the original scope of work.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health

X Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
