Tarkington ISD discusses flooding risks from proposed Liberty County MUD No. 15, recommends drafting resolution
Summary
Trustees discussed concerns that the proposed Liberty County MUD No. 15 development could increase downstream flooding risk at district campuses and recommended drafting a formal resolution to address the issue at a future meeting.
At the May 19 meeting, the Tarkington ISD Board and Superintendent Dr. Elna Davis discussed options to address community concerns about Liberty County Municipal Utility District No. 15 and the potential risk of flooding at district campuses located downstream of the proposed development. The board reviewed the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) permitting timeline and concluded more formal action may be warranted.
No resolution was presented for a vote; instead, staff recommended drafting a formal resolution for consideration at a future meeting to articulate the district’s concerns and possible positions during the TCEQ permitting process. The board took no action on the item at this meeting.
