Background and Discussion:

Westgate Subdivision Drainage Improvements project is located in Northwest Harris County, approximately 2.5 miles from Highway US-290 north of Cypress North Houston Road, east of N. Eldridge Parkway, and west of Huffmester Road. The scope of this project is to regrade approximately 12,850 linear feet of existing roadside ditches, upsize culverts, replace driveways, and replace the existing roadway throughout the subdivision to the Harris County standard width and depth. Changes approved by the Engineer of Record provides temporary driveways to accommodate the residents need to park their vehicles during construction. New Item include “Temporary Driveway” - $13,600.00, add 10 days.

 

 

Expected Impact:

This project seeks to reduce flood risk and strengthen resiliency in Harris County by assisting in the alleviation of structural flood damage to homes in the community. This change in contract is a step in the process to reduce the financial, physical, and emotional burden flood damage places on homeowners and will reduce the financial impact of recovery costs to the Westgate subdivision homeowners, Harris County, and FEMA. The fiscal impact for this project will come from the 1080 Funding for the Recovery and Resiliency Division subdivision projects with the long-term goal of reducing drainage costs in the future. No impact to project schedule or staffing anticipated.

 

 

 

Alternative Options:

No alternative option for this project is possible other than performing no additional work. However, in this area, the subdivision will continue to be a risk of flooding and structural damage to homes in the community.
