Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval of a certain project, decreeing the project to be a public necessity and convenience, and directing the Harris County Real Property Division to acquire, two (2) road easement tracts for the public project known as Seamist Drive - W 11 Street to Kury Lane - 2023, for the purpose of roadway construction, UPIN 24104MF38301, Precinct 4.
end
Background and Discussion:
The Seamist Drive project includes roadway improvements that consist of a typical section of a concrete curb
and gutter two-lane road with two 12-foot drive, drainage improvements that provide inline detention storage, public utility improvements including water line and sanitary sewer replacements, street lighting, landscaping and planting additional trees, and a safe pedestrian crossing along both sides of Seamist Drive, between 11th Street and 18th Street.
Expected Impact:
This project seeks to improve transportation and drainage systems and strengthen resiliency in Harris County
by assisting in the alleviation of structures in the clay road area.
Alternative Options:
If no action is taken, the safety and mobility benefits associated with the proposed improvements will not be
achieved, thereby depriving residents and pedestrians of the enhancements these improvements are intended
to provide.
