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.

| Dear District E Residents, I am honored to have the opportunity to serve as the new Houston City Council Member for District E and represent every community across the district. As I begin my term, I would like to share a few areas of focus that I believe are of utmost importance to our community’s well-being and growth. First and foremost, public safety is a top priority for me. It is crucial that we all feel secure and protected in our homes and neighborhoods. I am committed to working closely with our Houston Police Department Divisions to ensure they have the resources and support they need to keep our community safe. I plan to utilize my Council District Service Funds to supplement the District E HPD Divisions’ efforts to keep us safe. Together, we can foster strong relationships with law enforcement and implement proactive strategies to prevent crime and create a sense of security. Additionally, as many of you are aware, our community has experienced its fair share of challenges when it comes to flooding. Addressing flood mitigation is a critical task that requires immediate attention. I will continue the strong work put forth by Council Member Dave Martin and work diligently with Houston Public Works, Harris County Flood Control District, and Harris County among other experts to implement comprehensive measures that effectively manage and mitigate flooding risks. We must invest in infrastructure and projects that will safeguard our homes and businesses from future flood events. This includes the Lake Houston Spillway Dam Improvement Project, dredging Lake Houston, and continued funding for local drainage projects. Lastly, infrastructure improvements are vital for the growth and prosperity of any community. Our roads, bridges, water systems, and utilities play a crucial role in enhancing our quality of life. I am committed to collaborating with my fellow council members and seeking innovative solutions to improve our community’s infrastructure. By focusing on targeted investments and strategic planning, we can ensure our transportation systems are efficient, our utilities are reliable, and our community remains accessible to all. I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to our community’s continued success, and I am committed to representing your interests and concerns. As your council member, I encourage you to reach out to me with any questions, ideas, or suggestions you may have. Together, we can make a significant and lasting impact on the issues that matter most to us. Thank you for placing your trust in me, and I am excited to work with each and every one of you to create a safer, more resilient, and better-connected community. Sincerely, |
 |
