The proposed basin is to be located across Brays Bayou from the Country Creek Golf Course between Beltway 8 and US-59. The flowline elevation of Brays Bayou adjacent to the property varies from 39.42 feet at Country Creek Dr. to 38.39 at the east end of the property. The total property area is 13.91 acres located entirely within the 100-year floodplain for Brays Bayou. Exhibit 1 shows the property location in relation to the effective FEMA Flood Hazard Zones. Grading and conceptual designs for three detention development options for this property were provided by SWA Architects. Each option includes a wet-bottom pond with a normal pool water surface elevation of 40 feet and a 110-foot trapezoidal spillway weir with a crest elevation of 61 feet.
