Document flood-resilience readiness at a resident's own home, home 3, resident homes along Bexar Street and near William Blair Jr. Park, Joppa and Bonton neighborhoods, Dallas, TX 75215 (own-home) (2026-07-28)
This Trinity floodplain home has never had its downspout routing and low-point drainage checked against a flood-resilience retrofit plan, and no ranked readiness record exists to prioritize the fix. Standard: FEMA floodplain and green-infrastructure siting screen, applied here to the Trinity River floodplain around the Joppa and Bonton neighborhoods of South Dallas. SDG 11.5 disaster resilience. Proof: homeowner/resident-permission record + photo inventory + GPS + ranked readiness note Method (FEMA floodplain and green-infrastructure siting screen, applied here to the Trinity River floodplain around the Joppa and Bonton neighborhoods of South Dallas. SDG 11.5 disaster resilience.): 1. 1. Walk the home's exterior with the resident and photograph the downspout routing and any low-point drainage pooling near the foundation before starting. 2. 2. Note the distance each downspout discharges from the foundation and any grading that channels water back toward the home. 3. 3. Photograph the home's street address for the crew's reference. 4. 4. Record a ranked follow-on note naming the downspout for the diversion install crew. Done when: homeowner/resident-permission record + photo inventory + GPS + ranked readiness note
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 45–90 minutes. Method of record: FEMA floodplain + green-infrastructure siting screen
Bring
- GPS phone
- tape/ruler for deposition depth
- metals field kit (if sediment screen in scope)
- boots + gloves
- camera
Steps
- 1. Confirm post-event conditions are safe; navigate to the site; record GPS.
- 2. Photograph deposited sediment / affected area.
- 3. Measure deposition depth at representative points.
- 4. If a sediment contaminant screen is in scope, run the metals field kit and record values.
- 5. Note debris, hazards, and the extent (sketch).
- 6. Enter depth, any analytes, hazard notes, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.
If it does not match the plan
- Unstable ground / submerged debris / contaminated water -> document from safe footing; do not enter.
- Elevated metals in deposited sediment -> flag before any reuse; recommend lab confirm.
What counts as done
- Deposition depth recorded at representative points
- Metals screen recorded (if in scope)
- Debris/hazard note + extent sketch
- GPS waypoint + timestamped photos
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
