PASSEDHouston City Council · 2026-01-06

The City Council approved a $156,450 agreement with the Greater Southeast Management District to fund safety improvements for the Neighborhood Greenway Phase 2 project in District D. The money comes from a dedicated drainage and street renewal fund supported by property taxes.

What it means for you

Residents in the District D area (Evans-Shabazz) may see safety upgrades along a neighborhood greenway, a type of low-traffic street designed for pedestrians and cyclists. The funding is drawn from existing property tax revenues already set aside for drainage and street projects.
