Harris County Commissioners Court considers removing a stormwater vegetative easement from a property whose owner will not use Low Impact Development practices.
Harris County Commissioners Court is considering a request to remove a Stormwater Quality Vegetative Easement from a specific property. The current property owner says they will not use Low Impact Development (LID) practices on the site, so they are asking that the easement requirement be removed. The item was introduced on August 31, 2026.
A stormwater easement on a nearby property affects how rainwater is managed locally. Removing it changes what the landowner must do to control runoff, which can affect drainage in the surrounding area.
