We didn’t just become the city leaders who will help guide us through this crisis, we taught ourselves and each other to become those leaders.

  • Governor Abbott Funding Letter
    May 7, 2020 Dear Governor Abbott, First, thank you for your guidance and leadership during this uniquely challenging time. As mayors from cities across Texas, we fully understand the need to revitalize economic opportunity for all Texans while also ensuring we are doing all we can to protect public health by stopping the spread of COVID-19. We stand ready to assist you in this endeavor in every way possible. On March 27th, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, which provided over $2 trillion in emergency relief funds to help mitigate the financial harm caused by COVID-19. Included in the funding was $11.24 billion from the Coronavirus Relief Fund (CRF), which was split between the state of Texas and local governments in Texas with populations exceeding 500,000. While the six largest cities in Texas received a direct allocation of this funding from the federal government, no other Texas city has received CRF revenue to assist with disaster response. Needless to say, the virus representing our common enemy at the moment does not acknowledge city boundaries or population distinctions. Every single Texas city has a role to play in the battle for our state’s health and prosperity. To that end, we’ve been encouraged to learn that your office is currently establishing a program for the distribution of a portion of the state’s revenue received from the CRF to cities with populations under 500,000. This funding is critical to support Texas cities and the services they are providing on the front lines of the COVID-19 emergency.

Box 1562 Houston, Texas 77251-1562 Telephone – Dial 311 www.houstontx.gov September 30, 2014 Greetings, As Mayor of the City of Houston, I welcome all attending the annual 102nd Texas Municipal League Conference and Exhibition (TML). TML plays a vital role in advocating for the interests of the 18,000 mayors, council members, city managers, city attorneys and city department heads who are members of TML by virtue of their cities’ participation. This conference provides networking and the opportunity for the exchange of ideas. It is an invaluable experience. Houston has evolved into a dynamic city, boasting the most diverse population in the nation, a strong economy, affordable housing and sustainable growth in a wide range of industries. Houston has the hottest economy and is the job producing capital of America. We are a city built on dreams that are powered by hard work, guided by common sense and inspired by creativity. There is so much to see and do here. There’s a vibrant museum district, a downtown theater district that rivals New York’s Broadway, shopping and hundreds of restaurants with any type of food imaginable. I hope you will share in the Houston experience, taking with you lasting impressions of the spirit, vitality and tradition that characterize our city. MAYOR’S LETTER MAYOR’S Best wishes for a rewarding event. Sincerely, Annise D. Parker Mayor 2 Council Members: Brenda Stardig Jerry Davis Ellen R. Cohen Dwight A.
