Precinct 3- Debris Removal
Precinct 3 Residents,
Precinct 3 Road and Bridge crews and contracted trucks will be starting debris pickup on Monday, May 20th. Our area stretches from The Villages up to Cypress, through Tomball, Spring, Humble, Atascocita, then down the San Jacinto River through Huffman, Crosby, Highlands, and Baytown to Channelview. We were especially hard hit in Cypress and The Villages areas.
We expect debris operations to last for weeks to months, so please be patient as we move through the affected areas. Each debris zone where debris has been reported will have assets assigned. Presence will be heavier in the most impacted areas.
The most impactful things you can do to help are as follows:
- REPORT DEBRIS to our hotline by calling 713-274-3880, this greatly helps with planning and staging of assets. You can also call Precinct 3 dispatch at 713-274-3100, if the debris hotline is busy.
- Follow the debris staging/sorting guidelines in the attached handout (vegetative, construction, appliances, electronics, hazardous)
- If at all possible, do not park cars on the street near or across from debris piles. Our trucks and equipment are very large and if an area is not able to be accessed we will have to return later once obstructions have been removed.
Please know that we understand how traumatic and disruptive an event like this can be. Many of our crews who will be working in your areas are also Precinct 3 residents with property damage and power outages… this makes us especially proud to be serving you. Thank you for your partnership in the recovery efforts.
Sincerely,
Tom Ramsey
Commissioner Precinct 3
Construction of Phase 1 of Trail Project to Begin
Construction of Phase I of the trail project being funded by Harris County Water Control & Improvement District No. 155 (the “District”) will kick off in January. Minor layout activity will begin over the next two weeks with some flagging to identify the trail location. The District anticipates that construction equipment will be on site and construction will commence the last week of January. The project should be completed by May.
The project is located along the north bank of Channel A (the channel running adjacent to Cypresswood Drive) from Crescent Lily to Fairfield Falls Way. The project will consist of an approximately six foot wide concrete sidewalk with grouped tree plantings, benches, trash bins, and doggy waste stations.
If there are any questions or issues regarding the construction, residents should contact the District’s engineer, Larry Mueller at lmueller@bgeinc.com or 713.488.8212. Residents may also provide comments to the District’s Board of Directors at their regular monthly meetings at 5:30 p.m. on the fourth Monday of the month at Bradford Creek Clubhouse or by emailing Meghan.tricarico@nortonrosefulbright.com, the District’s paralegal.
The goal of the District’s trail project is to provide connectivity and beautify the Fairfield trail system, so it can be easily enjoyed by all residents. The first phase of the project will provide better and safer access to the middle school for kids walking or riding bikes.
The location of Phase 1 is shown on the map below:
