Expected Impact:

This project generally seeks to reduce flooding and strengthen resiliency in Harris County by assisting in the alleviation of structural flood damage to homes in the community. This utility agreement specifically will allow Harris County to install sidewalks to increase the walkability of the neighborhood and allow residents safer ambulatory options.
