What this office does

City Council is Houston's legislative body — it has the power to enact and enforce the city's ordinances and resolutions. Your district member is one of 16 council members (11 elected from geographic districts, five citywide). Together the Council adopts and may alter the annual budget, confirms the Mayor's appointments, and votes on bond issues, the awarding of contracts, and city spending over $50,000.

What the record shows

Present at 34 of 35 council meetings the minutes place them on council (Oct 2025 – Aug 2026).

Recorded absent at roll call 1 time. We have 40 meetings in total; the 35 counted here are the ones where the roll call names this member, so a seat taken mid-period isn't measured against meetings before it.

Recorded on 1312 of 1351 votes taken at those meetings.

The minutes note them absent on 39 individual votes.

What those votes were about

1090 decided items while they held the seat, by topic.

Counted from the City Secretary's minutes. Where the minutes don't record a member either way, we don't guess. These are counts of what happened, not a judgment of it — and we publish no party-agreement figures for city council, which is elected on a nonpartisan ballot and decides most items on a near-unanimous consent agenda.

How this district spends its service fund

Each council district controls a Council District Service Fund — money the member directs to local projects like extra police overtime, sidewalk fixes, ditch cleaning, or park events. These are the actual line items from the city's published dashboards, FY2015 through FY2026. Try searching a word like "sidewalk" or "camera" to see what your fund bought.

FY2026: $778,776 approved · $364,529 spent · 22 projects (part-year)FY2025: $883,406 approved · $566,911 spent · 28 projectsFY2024: $904,655 approved · $521,250 spent · 32 projects

FY2026 figures are the city's March 25, 2026 snapshot — spending recorded after that date isn't in this workbook yet, so treat FY2026 as a part-year total.

Straight from the City of Houston's council district budget summaries ↗ (FY2015–FY2026 dashboard workbooks). "Approved" is the maximum the member signed off on; "spent" is expenses recorded as of the date each workbook was published — the city updates them a few times a year, so recent figures lag. 3 projects are carried over from an earlier year and published in both workbooks; year totals above match the city's books, and totals spanning years count each project once.
