Heavy rain flooded Highway 79 in downtown Tarrant in July 2017

On July 24, 2017, nearly stationary storms dropped two to three inches of rain in about an hour around the Tarrant and Birmingham Airport areas. When floodwater blocks the main route, responders need safe access and a place to regroup as water recedes. An emergency portable kitchen can support extended field shifts at a dry staging site while crews check roads and creek crossings.

The National Weather Service reported significant flash flooding along Highway 79 downtown, with several vehicles stranded as Fivemile and Village creeks overflowed.

Tarrant published a stormwater management plan for its municipal system

Tarrant’s January 2023 Storm Water Management Program Plan sets out the city’s approach to managing runoff and documenting its municipal stormwater program. Drainage planning involves field checks as well as desk work, particularly in a city with a history of creek flooding. Modular kitchen facilities at a municipal work site can keep inspection and maintenance crews close to their assigned drainage areas.

The city later listed a stormwater program plan among its public documents and reports.

Starting monthly equipment rates

Put a rate beside each kitchen size.

Use these listed starting rates to frame the Tarrant budget conversation. The working layout, equipment requirements, and site still need a review before a size is selected.

Tarrant’s new City Hall project moved into construction in 2019

In December 2019, Tarrant leaders prepared to replace the old City Hall with a new municipal building. A public building project needs a steady flow of trades, inspectors and deliveries through the site. A portable kitchen trailer can give the construction crew a meal base without taking space from the building entrance or material staging.

WBRC reported a projected budget of $1.2 million to $1.7 million and an expected construction timeline running into 2020.

Tarrant public works cleared drains and filled potholes during a 2024 challenge

During a two-week public works challenge in February 2024, Tarrant crews filled 102 potholes, cleared storm drains and ditches, and collected 72 tons of trash and 258 bags. That combination of pavement repair and drain clearing keeps crews moving between tasks and neighborhoods. A mobile kitchen trailer at a city-approved service yard can provide lunch without pulling a public works team far from its route.

The city’s maintenance push focused on streets and drainage across the community.

ALDOT started resurfacing SR-79 through Tarrant in July 2026

ALDOT scheduled a 2.556-mile SR-79 job from south of the Five Mile Creek Bridge in Tarrant to Winewood Road near Center Point. The work zone passes a creek bridge and serves neighborhoods north of the city, so crews must keep lane closures and access moving in sequence. A portable kitchen trailer near an approved contractor base can shorten meal runs during nightly shifts.

The scope includes safety widening, micro-milling, scrub seal resurfacing, guardrail installation and new traffic stripes, with work beginning in late July 2026.

Tarrant’s council sought engineering support for roads and flood-related grants

Tarrant’s September 2023 council minutes say the city planned to request qualifications for a city engineer as federal grant opportunities approached. Engineering and grant work takes coordination across site visits, plans and application deadlines. A commercial kitchen trailer can serve a shared field base when survey crews and municipal staff need to spend the day on local infrastructure work.

The minutes describe engineering support for prospective road projects and flood litigation, with reimbursement possible for some eligible project costs.

Before choosing equipment

Give the quote team a useful brief.

A few decisions make the Tarrant conversation more practical. Gather the details that will shape the equipment, setup, and rental period.

  1. Describe a full service.

    List the menu, meals per service, staff working at once, and kitchen functions that will be unavailable. Include dishwashing, storage, and preparation work in that picture.

  2. Walk the site on paper.

    Record the delivery route, placement area, working clearances, and connections. A simple site plan helps put the trailer, staff access, and supporting facilities in the same conversation.

  3. Put the dates together.

    Bring the proposed rental period, construction or event milestones, and expected return to regular service. Confirm the equipment and delivery schedule through the project quote.

Tarrant arranged an independent safety inspection for its new flood dam

In September 2024, engineering firm TTL submitted a proposal to inspect Tarrant’s newly built flood mitigation dam on Five Mile Creek. An inspection covers the dam embankment, outlet tunnel and spillway, with findings important to future storm readiness. Remote kitchen facilities near a permitted check-in point can help the inspection team stay on site through a full day of measurements and review.

The city council packet included the proposal and a resolution authorizing an annual inspection agreement with a $24,000 fee.

A 2024 flood map notice covered Five Mile Creek and Tarrant Spring Branch

A May 2024 public notice said Tarrant, Birmingham, Fultondale and Jefferson County intended to revise flood hazard information along Five Mile Creek and Tarrant Spring Branch. Flood map review can affect how later road, utility and building work is planned along the creek. A mobile kitchen trailer can give survey and engineering teams a practical base during field checks of drainage and channel locations.

The notice described proposed changes to floodway widths and one-percent-annual-chance floodplain boundaries.

Local background sources

Tarrant began its Five Mile Creek flood mitigation project near Lawson Road

Tarrant’s flood mitigation project was designed around an earthen dam on Five Mile Creek just upstream of Lawson Road. Dam construction brings earthwork, hauling and environmental controls into a creek corridor. Modular kitchen facilities based outside the active work zone can keep operators and field staff fed while preserving room for equipment and inspection access.

A 2020 report described the roughly $9.5 million project as a response to repeated flooding that had closed Highway 79 and damaged property.

Local background sources

The Lawson Road flood mitigation dam reached FEMA closeout in 2024

At its October 2024 meeting, Tarrant’s council packet recorded that the Lawson Road Dam Project had been completed and its documents submitted to FEMA in April. Closeout work brings engineering records, site reviews and local coordination after the heavy equipment leaves. A mobile kitchen trailer can support a follow-up field day for project staff and inspectors without adding another trip away from the creek.

The earthen structure on Five Mile Creek was built to hold back peak runoff during heavy storms.
