Background and Discussion:
The Prado Woods Subdivision Drainage Improvements project is located in Northwest Harris County, within the Cypress Creek Watershed. The subdivision is serviced by a single road (Prado Woods Street) and is a private road. The existing storm water drainage system consists of open ditches which collect flows from the neighborhood and drain to the existing storm system along Grant Rd that ultimately outfalls to HCFCD Unit No. K100-00-00. Part of the existing roadside ditch south side of the street was replaced with an 18-inch pipe. Lack of conveyance capacity within the existing open ditches and/or storm pipes and lack of positive grading towards Grant Rd contributed to the reported flooding. Planned improvements include storm sewer along the street, reconstruction of the roadway improving to curb and gutter, and ROW acquisition.
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. These acquisitions are 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 Prado Woods Subdivision homeowners, Harris County, and FEMA. The fiscal impact for this project will come 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. No impact to project schedule or staffing anticipated.
Alternative Options:
The residents of Prado Woods Street have experienced flooding in the recent years and are ready for the proposed storm sewer upgrades and roadway improvements. If no action is taken, the residents may experience flooding again during upcoming hurricane season.
