Kevin Tokarski, P.E.
Chief Engineer
The economy brought Kevin and his Camaro from Michigan to Houston in the early 80s. For 11 years, he worked on Clear Lake subdivisions, shepherding the design and construction of infrastructure serving 6,500 single-family residential lots for Clear Lake City Water Authority, Texas’ largest water district.
With IDS since 1997, Kevin has guided large master-planned communities like Montgomery County’s 2,291-acre Imperial Oaks, where he coordinated utility district creation. His innovative solutions include converting sand pits into detention basins and transforming a road crossing from a culvert-laden concept into a scenic drive crossing three lakes.
Since 2008, Kevin has served as the Chief Engineer and oversees quality for IDS’ projects, sharing his knowledge and experience with our team of engineers and E.I.T.’s for projects from the start of design through construction. In addition, he led the creation – and currently maintains – a resource library of standards, agency design criteria, and other tools.
In his spare time, you can find Kevin with his wife Helen, spending time with their grandchildren, fishing on the water around Galveston, driving a Jeep offroad, and looking for scenic photo opportunities in Texas, Utah, and Colorado.
