Residents are invited to attend a public meeting regarding the Cotton/Hackberry Drainage Project:

📅 June 4, 2026

This meeting will provide an update on the project, explain the next steps, and allow property owners to learn more about the Right of Entry (ROE) and Right-of-Way (ROW) process.

The Cotton/Hackberry Drainage Project is designed to help reduce flooding risks and improve drainage infrastructure in the area through a phased approach.

• Environmental & design work
• Hydrologic and hydraulic analysis
