Request for approval to execute an agreement with Halff Associates Inc. in the amount of $371,762.00 for Professional Engineering and related Services to construct drainage improvements to Holderrieth Road, UPIN 18104MF0R901, Precinct 3 (MWDBE Contracted Goal 7%).

Background and Discussion:
Hurricane Harvey (August 25, 2018) caused severe and extreme flooding to homes, businesses, and community facilities through the project area. Many of these homes and facilities have experienced repetitive flooding in past disasters and heavy rain events. This project will improve storm water management capacity to serve the adjacent flood-prone neighborhoods and relieve transportation congestion along the corridor and surrounding areas.
Expected Impact:
The goal of improving Holderrieth Road is to achieve a level of service to meet current and future traffic volumes, reduce delays, and reduce structural flooding of adjacent residences, businesses, and schools.
Alternative Options:
An alternative option would be to not construct the project resulting in the loss of $18.2 M in allocated grant funding and approximately $3.2 M previously spent on the design, ROW and other fees.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
_ Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
X Transportation
X Flooding
_ Environment
_ Governance and Customer Service
