The background: As previously reported by Community Impact, the flood resilience plan is being developed by multiple county departments to implement actionable initiatives that consider the well-being of communities facing the physical, social and economic hardships of flooding. The flood control district is holding two additional town halls for residents to weigh in on the plan:

Riley Chambers Community Center
July 27, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
808 1/2 Magnolia Ave., Crosby

Tom Bass Community Center
July 29, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
15108 Cullen Blvd., Houston

Stay tuned: Following the open houses, the flood resilience plan will then be further refined and prepared for final release to residents, business owners and local governments. Individuals can also take an online survey, which will collect feedback and concerns on the plan. 

According to officials with the National Weather Service, a tropical depression is working on gaining strength and organization in the Gulf, and Houston area officials are monitoring the storm for potential local impacts. 

What we know: Officials with the Houston-Galveston office of the NWS released advisories for Tropical Depression Two, a weather disturbance in the Gulf of Mexico that has the potential to turn into a tropical storm by July 21. Based on current models from the NWS, the storm could bring tropical storm-level winds and rain to the Greater Houston area over the weekend.

Stay tuned: Officials are urging residents to check all hurricane preparations regardless of additional storm development in the coming days. If the storm continues to gain strength, it will become Tropical Storm Bertha, per the NWS.

Sandy Creek resident Georgia Bishop was out of town when 22 inches of rain fell on parts of northwest Travis County over the July 4, 2025, weekend. When Bishop returned home days later, her community was significantly changed.

What happened: Residents of the hard-hit Sandy Creek neighborhood described a “wall of water” that tore through their community last July, washing away homes, cars and roads. Nine people died in the flooding, including Bishop’s best friend, 16-year-old Felicity Jarmon.

The context: One year later, residents of the unincorporated Travis County community are still working to rebuild from last July’s catastrophic flooding. Central Texas has seen two straight years of intense, deadly flooding in July, leaving some residents on edge as they recover from last year’s disaster and mourn lost loved ones.

Community Impact spoke with Bishop and Kylie Nidever, whose neighborhood in Hunt flooded last year, on July 13, days before heavy rainfall hit large swaths of the state once again. Officials confirmed two deaths due to this year's floods, while 137 people died last July.
