VOTE COMING UPHouston City Council · 2026-11-04

The City Council is asked to approve a Pricing Certificate related to a bond issuance — specifically Airport System Special Facilities Revenue Bonds (Series 2026B) connected to United Airlines terminal improvement projects — and to confirm related matters, with an emergency declaration included.

What it means for you

If approved, the city would formally validate the pricing terms for these revenue bonds tied to United Airlines terminal improvements at a Houston airport; the bonds are a special facilities type, meaning repayment is backed by airline revenues rather than general city funds.

Outcome

Scheduled for the November 4, 2026 council meeting (ORDINANCES (CATEGORY) – NUMBERS 15 through 47). No vote has happened yet.
