Montrose Boulevard Improvements
I think HGAC represents another route regarding state and/or federal funding. They have tiers regarding plan priorities for projects (one for 20 year plan, one for 10 year, and then one for 4 year). -

Sacco Company - 2323 San Jacinto St.
Update: * They meet the 50% of fenestration exactly with this new cutout. * Their permit does not trigger necessity of sidewalk improvements. * Street trees removed without a permit 🤬 Edit: to be clear, their approved permit specifically notated that all street trees were staying as well- 1

METRO Emergency Operations Center At 1910 Fannin St.
For one, the city was awarded a federal rail elimination crossing grant for the west belt that was applied for a few years ago, and secondly, they do require matching funds and there are lots of rail crossings in the east end particularly. All of the CIP budgets tended to shift very flooding-focused after Harvey and rail crossings aren't primarily about remediating any flooding concerns.- 1

METRO Emergency Operations Center At 1910 Fannin St.
Yes, we agree. The neighborhood requested for all traffic forms and the only way for METRO to do that is bi-directional traffic. I didn't bother get too deep into the weeds.- 1

METRO Emergency Operations Center At 1910 Fannin St.
I know we are getting a little off-topic, but this is the partial story. The city, union pacific, some east end entities have also requested all traffic. The neighborhood basically said no takings, and the only way for that to be possible while also having all traffic is for BRT to utilize a single lane for bi-directional travel.
