General

Fort Bend County Levee Improvement District No. 2 (LID 2) is forecasted to receive 1-3 inches through Memorial Day weekend, but isolated areas may see as much as 5-7 inches of rainfall.  The latest forecast information from the National Weather Service is linked below.  Fortunately, the Brazos River is at low levels that do not impact drainage inside the LID 2 levee.  The pump stations are exercised routinely, and operators are available to run the pumps, if needed.  Based on the current forecast, LID 2 does not anticipate that the pumps will be operated.

During any heavy rain event there may be street ponding or flooding if the storm drains are overwhelmed and back up.  As rainfall decreases, the storm sewers will catch up, and any water in the streets will recede.  Never drive into high water.

The district is proposing a slight tax rate increase. The overall rate would rise from $0.118 to $0.119 per $100 of valuation — an increase of 0.85%. For the average homeowner, this is projected to result in a tax increase of $11.03 annually (1.78%), driven by both the higher rate and an increase in average home appraised values.
