Background and Discussion:
Ralston Acres Subdivision is in Northeast Harris County, Texas, Precinct 1. The project will include drainage improvements throughout the limits, consisting of approximately 3.5 miles of neighborhood streets from approximately Business 90 to Spicewood Lane. The project is located in Greens Bayou watershed. The proposed project will include drainage analysis and design of drainage improvements for the following streets within the neighborhood: John Ralston Road, Nodding Pines Lane, Bridle Path Drive ,Heather Row Lane, Westgard Boulevard, Danvers Drive. Proposed improvements are regrading of existing ditches and upgrading the driveway culverts from 18" to 24". Provide additional storm sewer to eliminate excessive width and depth of roadside ditches along John Ralston, Westgard, Nodding Pipes and Hearth Row. Construct storm water detention ponds for mitigation of increased run off from Ralston acres and Houmont Park. The acquisition of tracks is for Detention Pond and Drainage Easement.
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 modification 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 Houmont Park subdivision homeowners, Harris County, and FEMA. No staffing impacts expected with the fiscal impact for this project coming from the 1080 Fund, Special Mobility Funding for the Recovery and Resiliency Division subdivision projects with the long-term goal of reducing drainage costs in the future.
Alternative Options:
If no action is taken, the project will not be completed.
