ON THE AGENDAHouston City Council · 2026-06-02

This ordinance would approve and authorize payment to ETHAN Health LGC for its full Fiscal Year 2027 operating expenses under an existing interlocal agreement between the City of Houston and that entity. The item was tagged (delayed) by five council members and could only be considered after a related item (Item 14) was passed.

What it means for you

This item affects Houston residents who rely on services provided by ETHAN Health LGC, a local government corporation connected to the city. Because it was tagged, the payment was not immediately approved and required further council action.

Outcome

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