Background and Discussion:
This is a request to approve right-of-way acquisition for E541-02-00 / Gessner Rd Improvement Basin in the White Oak Bayou watershed. This property is located along E141-00-00, south of West Rd. Harris County is the owner and requested HCFCD accept the basin into maintenance.
Expected Impact:
This property will be used for/provide detention volume in association with the road improvement of Gessner Rd by Harris County Engineering Department. Harris County is the owner and requested HCFCD to accept the basin into maintenance.
Alternative Options:
Not approving this item would result in the basin not being properly maintained by the Flood Control District, which would bring the basin into a state of disrepair.
