Background and Discussion:
The detention expansion is in response to address homes being flooded in the Tax Day Flood and in Hurricane Harvey.
Expected Impact:
In response to those flood events, the districts developed a plan to expand the SWDB from a dry-bottom to a wet-bottom facility thereby increasing the capacity by as much as 200 acre-feet.
Alternative Options:
Failure to do this will result in further flooding in the community.
County Strategic Plan Goal: 2. Connect our community with safe, reliable, equitably distributed, and well-maintained infrastructure.
County Strategic Plan Objective: H: Improve the condition and resilience of County transportation, flood control, and other infrastructure.
