Big changes in former Arbor Oaks! A 68-acre stormwater basin is replacing a flood-prone neighborhood. 🏠 Homes bought out & residents relocated to higher ground 🚫 Flood risk removed forever 🌿 Pavement gone, land restored to nature Visit: hcfcd.org/c-15 #2018BondProgram
A major maintenance project on Berry Bayou is underway! Nearly 1.25 miles of channel will be restored to repair erosion, fix slopes & remove sediment. Completion is expected in Q3 2026. @HarrisCoPct2 #MaintenanceMatters

Two common ways to reduce flood risk: 1️⃣ Channel conveyance improvements – speed up stormwater flow 2️⃣ Detention basins – hold excess stormwater This basin in west Harris Co. will work with upcoming channel projects to better manage flow & reduce flooding HCFCD.org/C-46
Yesterday, our HR team hosted a Hiring Event at the Michael Talbott Service Center! We met with talented individuals, reviewed resumes, and shared more about how careers at the @hcfcd make a difference in our community. Thank you to everyone who came out.

The 2018 Bond Program is more than projects; it’s opportunity. Since 2018, we’ve secured $2.7B in federal, state & local partnerships to multiply impact for Harris County residents. Learn more: hcfcd.org/2018-bond-prog… #2018BondProgram
Weir’d but true! Those small barriers near stormwater basins? They’re weirs. These low dams manage stormwater, letting water spill into basins only after it rises high enough. Project Brays added seven, including at Willow Waterhole, reducing flood risk.
