Important Reminders

Engagement with community members for Port Houston Listening Tour

Event Date: Saturday, July 12th

Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM (2 hours)

Location: Gazebo area at Oak Meadows Park

Purpose: Engage directly with community members to gather feedback for our Listening Tour

Outreach: Invite neighboring communities from Meadowbrook/Allendale, Magnolia Park, and Harrisburg

Extras: We’ll bring the Kona Ice shaved ice truck and raffle prizes to help draw in families and encourage participation

The focus of our Listening Tour is to give community members an opportunity to share what matters most to them—what they care about, what their priorities are, and how Port Houston can better serve, support, and respond to their needs. Each response is incredibly valuable in helping us ensure our programs, initiatives, and investments are aligned with the needs of the communities across our operational footprint. To support this, please share the digital survey linked below with your networks and encourage them to complete it.

TREE WASTE & Bulk Waste
Residents may dispose of Tree Waste and Bulk Waste curbside. Tree Waste is collected during ODD numbered months and Bulk Waste is collected during EVEN numbered months. This method of collecting large waste items comes with the benefit of diverting materials that can be recycled, away from landfills, saving landfill space and valuable tax dollars. 

Tree Waste
“Tree Waste” is defined as “clean” wood waste such as tree limbs, branches, and stumps. Lumber, furniture, and treated wood will NOT be accepted.

Bulk Waste

“Bulk Waste” is defined as items such as furniture, appliances, and other bulky material.

Tree Waste is accepted during Bulk Waste Months; however, to ensure your Tree Waste is recycled, you may hold your tree waste materials until the next Tree Waste designated month or take it to a Neighborhood Depository/Recycling Center.

Bulk Waste months are February, April, June, August, October and December.

HOUSTON – Council Member Fred Flickinger would like to make residents aware that Houston Public Works will begin a drainage improvement project along Falvey St. and the intersection with Woodbine St. starting TOMORROW, Monday, November 18. The scope of work includes removing and replacing storm sewers, installing new inlets, removing and replacing sidewalks, and milling and overlaying the road. The project cost is $257,600 and is funded through Houston Public Works Dedicated Drainage & Street Renewal Fund (DDSRF).

The project is anticipated to be completed by Tuesday, March 18, 2025, weather permitting. Construction activities are expected to take place Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and contractors may work on weekends as needed.

As a result of the construction activities, please be aware of flagmen and orange traffic cones that will be put in place on-site to help with traffic flow through the construction zone as the project will require one lane closure. Two-way traffic will always be maintained. Businesses and residents will always have access to driveways and may experience increased noise levels due to trucks and equipment in the area. Impacts to water or sewer are not anticipated. Should a disruption need to occur, affected residents will be notified in advance.

For more information, please contact Council Member Flickinger’s office at (832) 393-3008 or districte@houstontx.gov.
