Ok I think the only other agenda items not listed in this chain so far are:
- Train crossing at Gander Slough Road
- Report by P&Z Committee
- Discuss & consider committees requesting agenda item
- Food Sovereignty Act for Kingsbury
- City-wide Rainwater Collection Update (although there may be nothing new to report)
And we don't need an executive session? Just checking.

Hey, I haven't posted the agenda yet, and I read about this on the TML Legislative Update. Is this something we should get on the agenda? www.tml.org/897/July-7-2023-Number-27#Preemption"On July 3, the City of Houston filed a lawsuit in Travis County to have H.B. 2127, the so-called “Super Preemption” bill, declared unconstitutional. H.B. 2127, effective September 1, would prevent cities and counties from adopting or enforcing local regulations related to an activity located in a field of regulation occupied by state law in certain state codes. The League’s post-session summary of H.B. 2127 can be read here. Among other things, the City of Houston argues that H.B. 2127 violates the home rule amendment of the Texas Constitution, is unconstitutionally vague, and impermissibly delegates the Texas Legislature’s policy-making authority to the courts. The city’s press release on the lawsuit can be accessed here. If joining this litigation might make sense for your community, you may contact Darah Eckert with the City of Houston Legal Department at Darah.Eckert@houstontx.gov or (832) 393-6251. The League will monitor the litigation closely and provide updates as they become available." |
