San Jacinto Boulevard District

EHRA completed a site-specific planning and visioning study for the proposed 470-acre San Jacinto Boulevard District (SJBD) in Baytown, Texas.

MUD 188

EHRA planners, hydrologists and landscape architects worked together to propose an alternative use for the space, re-developing the basin into an amenity pond. EHRA carefully selected native plant materials for both their ability to survive in the harsh conditions of the basin as well as providing filtration for improved storm water quality.

Greens Bayou Trail Phase 2

Identified as a top priority during the development of the District’s Parks Master Plan, this portion of trail was the first phase of over two miles of planned trails to provide connectivity and recreation for District residents.

Ventana Lakes Development

Project totaled 640 acres including 1256 Residential Lots. EHRA designed, created construction plans, publicly bid and preformed Construction management.

Jacobs Reserve Development

Engineering design and construction phase services of water, sewer, drainage and paving for four subdivision sections and off-site channel (123 acres out of a 400 acre subdivision). There was 60-feet of elevation difference on this site and wooded lots were left in their natural state which required the installation of retaining walls.

Infrastructure Cost Trends

Construction Pricing Update

EHRA Construction Phase Services finished a 12-month review of construction prices for common civil infrastructure items. The results continue to show steady price increases for items where construction materials are in limited supply. Most recently, concrete products, which remained steady last year, are now showing notable price increases as well. We understand that the concrete price increase is both due to global cement supply challenges and local product shipping / delivery costs.

Water Trends

We have observed a steady trend of price increases for various water distribution items.
