League City City Council convened for its June 10 meeting, where members proceeded with the second readings of two significant land annexation proposals. The council also considered an application for a state library grant, focusing on key land-use and resource-sharing initiatives for the city.
The League City City Council held a meeting on June 10 to discuss two different plans to annex significant property areas that fall under the city's extraterritorial authority.
The meeting, which took place at 6:00 p.m. at League City's City Hall, located at 300 W. Walker Street in League City, discussed and ultimately implemented these significant municipal decisions. The council heard both proposals and is likely to move forward with the second reading.
During a previous meeting held on May 27, these ideas received preliminary approval with a vote of 7-1 from the council.
There were two different annexation proposals: the first one comprised 131 acres of land located in Galveston County, while the second one involved 80 acres of land located close to FM 319. BC-SB Baybrook JV LLC, situated in Houston, was the registered owner of the 131-acre site, as stated in the agenda documents.
Martron LLC, Ellen Lloyd Cummins, and J.A.C. Interests Ltd., all of Houston, were the owners of the 80-acre parcel at the appropriate time. The progression of these second readings brought the city closer to adopting these territories into its formal bounds, which was the goal of the town itself.
In addition to the decision about land use, the City Council also voted on whether or not to apply for a grant from the Interlibrary Loan Lending Reimbursement Program of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission.
As stated in the agenda documents, the purpose of this award was to provide partial compensation for direct costs associated with League City's participation in statewide resource sharing, to enhance library patrons' access to materials.
Galveston is among dozens of Texas cities joining the nationwide “No Kings” protest this Saturday, standing against President Trump’s military parade and perceived authoritarianism.
This August, Galveston food lovers can make a difference simply by dining out. As part of Houston Restaurant Weeks, local restaurants will offer special menus from August 1 to September 1, with proceeds going to the Houston Food Bank.
In response to escalating protests in Los Angeles and nationwide, Houston law enforcement is preparing for possible demonstrations, coordinating with state and federal partners to prevent civil unrest while emphasizing support for peaceful assembly.
