Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request for approval of an interlocal agreement with the City of Houston, to construct and maintain the Meyergrove Phase 2 Detention Basin on City right-of-way located at North Braeswood Boulevard and Frankway Drive (Brays Bayou Watershed, Bond ID Z-02, Project ID D500-16-00-E001, Agreement No. 2025-17, Precinct 1).
end
Background and Discussion:
This interlocal agreement with the City of Houston will grant the Flood Control District construct and maintain easements over the proposed Meyergrove phase 2 Detention Basin on City right-of-way located at North Braeswood Boulevard and Frankway Drive. The wet-bottom basin will include a maintenance path/trail, and relocation of an electric pole and communication lines. The basin has been designed to avoid impacts to the two sanitary sewers and manholes on the project site. Funding will be provided by FEMA, under the same authority used for the nearby Meyergrove Detention Basin (D500-11-00-E001). This project occurs in the 3rd quartile under the 2022 Prioritization Framework approved by Commissioners Court.
Expected Impact:
This agreement will contribute to the reduction of risk of street flooding in the Braeswood Blvd corridor.
Alternative Options:
The alternative to approving this item would be not constructing the proposed basin, which would result in not realizing the benefits of the project, and returning unutilized FEMA funds.
County Strategic Plan Goal: 2. Connect our community with safe, reliable, equitably distributed, and well-maintained infrastructure.
