Request Summary (Agenda Caption):
title
Request by the Flood Control District for approval to accept from the Federal Emergency Management Agency grant funds in the amount of $6,536,842, with a required match of $2,786,198, for the Halls Bayou Blue Bell Detention Basin Program (P518-12-00-E001).
end
Background and Discussion:
The proposed Blue Bell Regional Stormwater Detention Basin is currently envisioned as a dry-bottom, off-line stormwater detention basin. It is located along the northern bank of the main stem of Halls Bayou, just upstream of IH-45. The funding is available specifically for this project in the FY22 Federal Budget and was submitted by Congresswoman Sheila Jackson-Lee, representing the 18th District of Texas. The $2,786,198.36 match required will need to be funded through the Flood Resilience Trust.
Expected Impact:
This grant will fund the P518-12-00 stormwater detention basin project through construction. This project is part of the Halls Bayou Watershed Implementation Program, which is an ongoing program that allows HCFCD to take a watershed-wide approach to planning flood risk reduction project in the Halls Bayou watershed, a historically underserved community.
Alternative Options:
This award is meant to fund the preliminary engineering report, design and construction of the P518-12-00 stormwater detention basin. Work would either not occur or would have to be funded by another means if we reject this grant award.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
_ Transportation
X Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
