Recognizing deficiencies, the City had unsuccessfully sought funding for drainage improvements for years. The channel's vulnerability was tested during Hurricane Harvey when rapid debris accumulation on existing bar screens prevented water flow into the diversion channel and resulted in extensive flooding. GrantWorks assisted with the scope of work development and prepar- ing the application for this project. Phase I of this project included de- veloping a finalized engineering design, hydraulic study, environmental consultation, and an updating BCA, as well as designing the storm sys- tem improvements on the Cottonwood Diversion Channel and outflow facilities. Phase 11 of the project consists of constructing the automatic bar screen cleaner and flap gates. The project helps mitigate the increased risk of flooding to streets,res- idences, and critical facilities in the area. The most important chal- lenge faced with this project stemmed from available program funding and the scope of work modifications that resulted from an upstream CDBG-DR project. The HMGP project design and construction were contingent upon completing and reviewing the proposed CDBG-DR effort. Since GrantWorks was also providing administration services for the CDBG-DR grant, we overcam this obstacle by coordinating internally to communicate the shared goals of the community, state, and federal shareholders.
