The Harris County Flood Control District will hold a virtual Community Engagement Meeting for the Channel Conveyance Improvements for Adlong Ditch. The purpose of this meeting is to inform residents about the status of the Channel Conveyance Improvements for Adlong Ditch project and share project information.

On or about May 9, 2022, demolition will begin to remove all remaining structures on the former Raveneaux Country Club property now owned by the Harris County Flood Control District, including parking lots, tennis courts and swimming pool. The demolition will be completed using standard construction equipment, including excavators, skid steers, and tractor trailers. The demolition and removal of material will take the contractor approximately 35 to 40 days, weather permitting. For safety reasons, the Flood Control District asks that the public stay away from the demolition site.
