Background and Discussion:

The Cedar Bayou Park project is located in east Harris County in Precinct 2. The scope of work for this utility agreement includes Harris County’s installation of three 42” steel drainage boxes within EXXON easement. This agreement will allow Harris County to perform the installation work and to be active within the easement.

 

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 three 42” steel drainage boxes to direct flow from the subdivision into the detention basin. No impact to project schedule or staffing anticipated.

 

Alternative Options:

Alternative options would include redesigning the project to avoid the easement or abandonment of the project.
