SPECIFIC EXPLANATION:

 

Cypress-Klein Utility District has petitioned the City of Houston for consent to add 3.1492 acres of land, located in the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction, to the district.

 

The Utility District Review Committee has evaluated the application with respect to wastewater collection and treatment, potable water distribution, storm water conveyance, and other public services.

 

The district is located in the vicinity of Cypresswood Drive, Stuebner Airline Road, Louetta Road and TC Jester Boulevard.  The district desires to add 3.1492 acres, thus yielding a total of 484.7260 acres.  The district is served by a district plant, the Cypress-Klein Utility District Wastewater Treatment Plant.  The nearest major drainage facility for Cypress-Klein Utility District is Cypress Creek which flows into Spring Creek and then to the San Jacinto River and finally into Lake Houston.

 

Potable water is provided by the district.  By executing the Petition for Consent, the district has acknowledged that all plans for the construction of water conveyance, wastewater collection, and storm water collection systems within the district must be approved by the City of Houston prior to their construction.

 

The Utility District Review Committee recommends that the subject petition be approved.
