<br /> <br /> <br />Precinct Coordinator Jeremy Ratliff, with HCFCD, spoke and informed the committee of <br />maintenance projects and presented a handout and a PowerPoint. He went over a brief history of <br />the maintenance they have going on and some of the bond projects. <br /> <br />Director of Engineering Alan Black, with HCFCD, spoke and advised many of the projects will need <br />to be well chosen if the Bond Election passes, to get a prioritized list of projects needing to be done <br />in La Porte. <br /> <br />Vice-Chairman Earp commented the Committee will work with HCFCD and Harris County Precinct <br />2 in order to get a list of projects prioritized. Mr. Black suggested the City provide a list and meet to <br />discuss the projects before the August Bond Election. <br /> <br />Councilmember Zemanek asked whether it is feasible to get a pump station at Lomax F101-03-00 <br />in order to get through the Pipeline Corridor. Mr. Black responded pump stations are the last resort <br />due to pump stations having to be powered by electricity and when lines go down, they need a <br />back-up generator; and there is also the factor of having to conduct routine maintenance of pump <br />stations to assure they are pumping properly and not flooding downstream. <br /> <br />Mr. Black provided information on funding sources for the City of La Porte. <br /> <br />Councilmember Engelken commented he heard there may be a subdivision built at Fairmont and <br />Red Buff that will increase blocked drainage in the Brookglen subdivision and asked what <br />restrictions will the City of Pasadena have for detention facilities for the new subdivision. Mr. Black <br />responded developments have to mitigate the increase flow in the form of storm water detention <br />basins. <br /> <br />Vice-Chairman Earp thanked everyone for attending the meeting to discuss flooding issues, and <br />looks forward to meeting with them again. <br />Vice-Chairman Earp address Don Pennell and Corby Alexander regarding what was requested at <br />the last meeting, and that is to provide dates and costs on each of the items listed on the agenda, <br />and where we are on each item. We need the dates, targets, approximate cost, so we can start <br />figuring out funding and timing, and we want to look at it at every meeting from here on out. <br />(b) Brookglen Subdivision L.
