Background and Discussion:

Pine Trails Subdivision is in Northeast Harris County, Texas, Precinct 2 (redistricted from Precinct 1). The

subdivision consists of approximately 525 acres and 1,800 homes. The residents have experienced structural flooding during several recent flood events. Approximately 264 homes were reported to have flooded during Hurricane Harvey. The purpose of this project is to reduce flood risk for homes. The proposed solution

includes upgrading storm sewers and adding 3 detention ponds. This amendment includes professional design services to add roadway pavement and sidewalk rehabilitation to the project scope.

 

Expected Impact:

Approving this amendment contributes to the project, which seeks to reduce flood risk and strengthen resiliency in Harris County by assisting in the alleviation of structural flood damage to homes in the community. This agreement is a step in the process to reduce the financial, physical, and emotional burden flood damage places on homeowners and will reduce the financial impact of recovery costs to the Pine Trails subdivision homeowners, Harris County, and FEMA. The addition of roadway pavement and sidewalk rehabilitation to the scope of the project further improves drainage throughout the subdivision.

 

Alternative Options:

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