Background and Discussion:

The Harris County Community Flood Resilience Task Force (CFRTF) serves in an advisory capacity to the Infrastructure Resilience Team (IRT) and Commissioners Court to promote collaboration among stakeholders and encourage equitable resilience planning efforts and flood resilience projects.

 

Expected Impact:

Appointment of a vacant position assigned to and previously appointed by Precinct 1, which will enable continuity of operations and leadership on the board. Because this vacancy occurred due to a board member’s resignation, the incoming nominee should serve out the remainder of the former member’s unexpired term.
