This interlocal agreement between Harris County and Generation Park Management District creates a submerged storm sewer system for Generation Park East Section 4 in Precinct 1. The agreement passed Commissioners Court on May 14, 2026, establishing how stormwater will be managed in this growing commercial and residential development area near Lake Houston. Generation Park is a major mixed-use development that includes office buildings, retail spaces, and residential areas. When developments build storm sewers below ground level, they need special agreements with the county to ensure proper maintenance and emergency access. This matters because effective stormwater management protects our neighborhoods from flooding during heavy rains. Harris County has experienced severe flooding in recent years, making these infrastructure agreements critical for community safety. The submerged sewer system will help channel rainwater away from streets and buildings, reducing flood risk for residents and businesses in the Generation Park area and surrounding neighborhoods. This agreement also clarifies who is responsible for maintaining the system over time. Residents can learn more about this agreement by contacting Mony Hossain at mony.hossain@harriscountytx.gov.

Flooding can damage homes and close roads. This deal sets up an underground drainage system in Generation Park to move rainwater away fast — and makes clear who keeps it working so neighbors stay safer during heavy storms.
