Comal County flags $12.7 million estimated FRS Dam No. 4 upgrade; local share about $4 million
Summary
Road and flood-control staff presented an estimated $12.7 million upgrade for FRS Dam No. 4, noting a local responsibility of roughly $4 million if state funding is unavailable and urging planning for professional services and construction readiness.
Road and flood-control staff told commissioners a potential upgrade of FRS Dam No. 4 carries an estimated cost of about "$12,700,000" with the local area's share described as "that $4,000,000," and said they had applied for a Soil Conservation Service grant to cover the county's portion. They urged budgeting to make the county ready should federal or state agencies proceed to construction.
The road department also described planning and professional services for Canyon Bend flood improvements and proposals to expand overlay mileage; commissioners discussed possible video cameras and weather stations to improve high-water warning operations.
