LID 15 Board Additions

The Levee Improvement Board of Directors is pleased to announce two new additions to the board; Mr. Premal Shah and Mr. Jeffrey Anderson. During the most recent LID 15 monthly meeting, both were selected by the committee for inclusion. Each will serve an initial term through May of 2022.

The move to a five-person board was voted on by residents of LID 15 in November and will allow every section of Riverstone, that is included in the boundaries of the district, to be directly represented.

With the new additions, the board voted on new board titles. These are listed below. We will feature stories on each new board member over the weeks to come.

President – Darrell Groves
Vice-President – Girish Misra
Secretary – Rohit Sankholkar
Assistant Vice-President – Premal Shah
Assistant Secretary – Jeffrey Anderson

Two New Board Members Needed

On November 6 the residents of LID 15 voted to add two directors to the existing board of directors. Wednesday, November 14 the current board of directors chose the process for the additions.

“To accommodate the move to a five-person board the district was broken up into five separate precincts. This way the entire area is represented equally. The current elected board members represent precincts 2, 4 & 5. Since no one from precinct one and three decided to run for election to the board, we need to find two people from those districts to appoint.” Board President Darrell Groves

Each director serves a four-year term ending in 2022. If you are interested, you need to be from Precinct 1 or Precinct 3 (community listings follow), provide a full name with address and a statement of interest on why you wish to be considered for a board position. In place of, or in addition to, the statement, you can also provide a resume.

  • Precinct 1: Riverstone North Sections 1 and 6, Ivory Ridge, Avalon Sections 1-5
  • Precinct 3: Avalon Sections 6-24, Marble Bend

The district will be accepting applications until 5 pm on Monday, December 10. They can be delivered in person to the LID’s legal representative:
Muller Law Group, PLLC
202 Century Square Boulevard
Sugar Land, Texas 77478

Digitally applications can be emailed to tara@mullerlawgroup.com.

We are asking our community to share this message and assist our efforts in finding qualified candidates that are willing to serve their community as board members.

Brazos River Projections

Over the last few weeks, there has been a significant amount of rain in our area and even more upstream to our north. As such, river projections are increasing on the Brazos River, and the board wanted you to be aware. Today (10/18), the forecasted crest stands at 39.2 feet.

An anticipated crest approaching 40 feet will seal off gravity flow to the pump stations. This action means all rainfall that occurs this week (or until the Brazos River gauge recedes below 40 feet) will be pumped out of the area. We do not anticipate any issue with the storage capacity inside the district.

How are the pump stations?

All of our pump stations are fully operational and prepared for the potential 2-4” of rain expected over the next week. There is no expectation of any issues or concerns over this event.

We will not provide another update on this storm unless the conditions on the Brazos change.
