title
Request for approval to sign an amendment to a Multipurpose Application for DACW64-2-75-1 easement agreement from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Galveston District, for HCFCD Unit U101-18-00 within the Addicks Reservoir Watershed (Precinct 4).
end
Background and Discussion:
The Flood Control District has been granted easements along certain channels within the Addicks Reservoir, Barker Reservoir, and Buffalo Bayou watersheds. An amendment is needed to allow for additional access along a reach of channel referred to by the District as U101-18-00 within the Addicks Reservoir.
Expected Impact:
The Flood Control District will receive permission to utilize a new access point which allows for maintenance of the U101-18-00 channel to help optimize flood risk reduction.
Alternative Options:
The alternative would be not to proceed with updating the access points. The Flood Control District would not have property rights to perform maintenance activities along the channel and would have to obtain access through a resident's driveway and back yard.
