Background and Discussion:
As a part of the Flood Control District’s maintenance operations, the Flood Control District undertakes multiple projects to de-silt channels on a routine basis. The Flood Control District has a need for additional sediment removal projects and bank repairs within the Barker Reservoir to assure proper drainage into the reservoir. This project will improve storm water conveyance by restoring several channels within Barker Reservoir to the original capacity to hold and convey storm water. The project consists of the removal of sediment from various tributaries within Barker Reservoir and repairs along the banks where needed so that flows will not be interrupted. This project does not have a score using the 2022 Prioritization Framework because it is a channel maintenance project.
Expected Impact:
This item will authorize the prime consultant to begin engineering designs for removal of sediment in the channels and repair deficiencies noted within them. The Flood Control District staff will manage the engineering consultant team to execute the engineering designs for this project.
Alternative Options:
There is not an alternative option other than not performing the project. Not maintaining the channels within the reservoir will increase the probability of flooding to the residents upstream of the reservoir as water flow would into the reservoir would be restricted.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
_ Transportation

_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
