Council postpones decision on TWDB Region 13 flood evaluation, asks HDR to clarify
Summary
The council voted to postpone consideration of participation in a TWDB Region 13 Flood Management Evaluation and asked staff to invite Ms. Shaw from HDR to the next meeting for clarification.
The Jourdanton City Council deferred action on participating in a Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) Region 13 Flood Management Evaluation at its March 16 meeting. The evaluation would address drainage and flooding between Simmons Avenue, Cantrell Avenue, and Maple Street and involve coordination with HDR and local stakeholders.
An initial motion to participate (mover: Mayor Pro Tem Chester Gonzales; seconder: Councilmember Raul Morales) was amended by Councilmember Pamela Manning, who successfully moved to postpone the item to the next council meeting and to invite Ms. Shaw of HDR to provide additional clarification. The amendment passed unanimously.
The postponement signals the council’s desire for more technical detail from HDR before committing to participation in the regional evaluation and possible project planning next steps.
