When voters approved the 2018 Bond Program, it wasn’t just about constructing new flood risk reduction infrastructure, it was also about restoring what Harris County already had. With more than $660 million secured for repair and maintenance alone, the Flood Control District has taken a proactive approach to maintaining its drainage infrastructure, ensuring that past investments continue to function as designed.

The 2018 Bond Program included 18 Bond IDs specifically dedicated to repair and maintenance projects. These cover everything from stormwater infrastructure repairs to major maintenance efforts.
