Congratulations Lieutenant Steven Rychlik on your twenty years of service to the Richmond Police Department!

We introduced a valuable team member for Years of Service to the City of Richmond at Monday's Commission meeting- Lieutenant Steven Rychlik, who has served in several capacities in the Richmond Police Department in his 20 years, most recently as Commander of the Criminal Investigation Division. Lieutenant Rychlik is prepared to serve where needed with this community-based police department.

Lieutenant Rychlik has also been the point person for the Richmond BUZZ, the Richmond Police Department's storied spelling team who has supported the annual Literacy Council of Fort Bend County's Great Grown-Up Spelling Bee for 16 years! Another testament to Rychlik's commitment to service. We were honored to recognize Lieutenant Rychlik's 20 years of service to the Richmond community.

Thank You, Lieutenant Steven Rychlik, for your hard work and dedication to the city, community and department over these last 20 Years!

Weather Update!

Heavy rain and thunderstorms are predicted for the next few days. There is a possibility of localized flooding through at least Thursday. Rainfall totals of 4-7 inches are probable. Isolated amounts of 10-15 inches are possible. It appears that the Brazos River in Richmond will remain below flood levels at this time.

Rainfall rates of 2-5 inches per hour are possible. With this amount of rain in a short period, there will be flooding on some of our streets. Please remove all loose debris from your yard which could float away and block drainage.

In addition to the front that is causing rain there is a tropical disturbance that will add moisture to our already wet week outlook. The disturbance may pass along the Texas coast/northwestern Gulf late Tuesday or Wednesday and try to develop into a
brief tropical depression. There is currently a 60% chance of development, but increasing chances are possible over the next 24 hours.

Potential Impacts, regardless of development, to Southeast Texas:
Increased risk of heavy rain.

Please do not drive through flooded areas, “Turn Around, Don’t Drown”

Weather Update!

Severe rain and thunderstorms are predicted across Texas for the rest of the week. While most of the heavier rain will be north of Richmond, this will still have an impact on the Brazos River. We will be monitoring the river levels throughout the storms. It is never too early to prepare.

As this storm passes through the State of Texas, we ask that you help us prevent flooding by removing all loose debris in and around your yard which could block the storm drains in the city. If you can avoid driving through heavy rain, and possible flooded roads, please do so. “Turn Around, Don’t Drown”

Weather Forecast for Richmond!

We are continuing to monitor possible severe weather storms on Friday, extending into Saturday. Friday looks to be the greatest threat for heavy rainfall and flash flooding. Rain amounts are predicted to be 1 to 3 inches per hour which can cause street flooding in the area. Please be sure and clear your yard of any loose debris which could block storm drains and enhance flooding probabilities. Please stay off of the roads if at all possible. Do not try to drive through flooded areas; Turn Around - Don't Drown.

They are cute but they are not ours.
