Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval to execute an interlocal agreement with Memorial Municipal Utility District in connection with the pedestrian bridge across Harris County Flood Control District Channel T-103-01-00 and recreational trails within the Memorial Municipal Utility District boundaries along T-103-00-00, UPIN 24104MF37R01, Precinct 4.

Background and Discussion:
To provide a new parks and recreation trail system with the help of a pedestrian bridge to bring additional mobility connectivity and allow for safer alternatives for the community for foot traffic, hiking, or biking. The pedestrian bridge would connect Memorial MUD to the Willow Fork Drainage District, providing access to neighboring churches, parks and recreation, and commercial property.
Expected Impact:
This project would greatly enhance the community by providing connectivity to numerous amenities and businesses through neighboring MUDs to Barker Reservoir, reducing carbon emissions by providing alternative travel methods to these locations. The project would also provide a safer alternative for residents than walking and biking on major roadways.
Alternative Options:
The alternative option for this proposal would be to determine other funding or to complete these items inhouse. Denial of the request will delay community benefits.
County Strategic Plan Goal: 2. Connect our community with safe, reliable, equitably distributed, and well-maintained infrastructure.
County Strategic Plan Objective: I: Increase access to safe, clean, and enjoyable green space.
