ON THE AGENDAHouston City Council · 2026-06-02

The council considered an ordinance to approve and authorize payment to Houston Recovery Center LGC for its full Fiscal Year 2027 operating expenses under an existing interlocal agreement with the City. The item was tagged (delayed) by five council members and was contingent on passage of a prior item.

What it means for you

This would fund the Houston Recovery Center's day-to-day operations for the upcoming fiscal year using city money. Residents who rely on or are served by the Houston Recovery Center — which provides substance use and mental health recovery services — would be directly affected.

Outcome

Tagged (delayed under council rules) at the June 2, 2026 meeting; final vote at a later session.
