Background and Discussion:

This agreement will allow access for both construction and permanent maintenance operations of Basin West 3. The Stormwater Detention Basins on South Mayde Creek Near the Grand Parkway - Phase 1 (Project) has recently commenced construction. The Project is located west of Grand Parkway, North of Clay Road, south of Stockdick School Road, east of Peek Road, and within Harris County Precinct 4. The objective of the Project is to maximize stormwater storage capacity and reduce flood risk along South Mayde Creek (Unit ID: U101-00-00).

 

The Project will include construction of two wet-bottom compartments (West 2 and West 3) with gravity-only outfalls and overflow spillways into South Mayde Creek. Access to West 3 will come via Clay Road, with permanent access through TxDOT right-of-way, a CenterPoint easement, and a low-water crossing at the U201-09-00 channel. An Agreement has been prepared by the County Attorney’s Office and reviewed with TxDOT’s legal team. Based on correspondence received from the County Attorney’s Office and TxDOT, the Agreement is ready to proceed forward to approval and signatures.

This project includes U501-07-00-E002: Stormwater Detention Basins on South Mayde Creek Near the Grand Parkway - Phase 1.

 

Expected Impact:

Basin West 3 provides an additional 123 acre-feet of detention storage to South Mayde Creek. The Agreement is needed to establish construction and long-term maintenance access to the Basin West 3 site.

 

Alternative Options:

The alternative to approving this item would be not approve the Agreement, which would result in the project not moving forward.
