Missouri City planning commission schedules special comprehensive-plan meeting, offers training and adds senior planner
Summary
At its March 12 meeting the Missouri City Planning & Zoning Commission agreed to schedule a special meeting to review findings and recommendations on the comprehensive plan, was offered a six-week Texas A&M planning course for up to two commissioners, and introduced Justin Pulliam as the department—s new senior planner.
The Missouri City Planning & Zoning Commission on March 12 said it will hold a special evening meeting in late March or the first week of April to review findings and recommendations on the city—s comprehensive plan.
The commission—s director of development services told commissioners the session will likely start at 6 p.m. and that staff is polling members for availability before scheduling a single-issue meeting to finalize recommendations for city council in April.
The meeting matters because the comprehensive plan guides future land use, infrastructure and zoning decisions across Missouri City. Commissioners were told the special meeting is needed so the commission can review the plan—s findings and prepare a recommendation to send to council.
In other staff business, the director said Texas A&M AgriLife Extension is offering a six-week planning course beginning in April covering local government planning topics. Staff asked commissioners to respond to an email about availability; the department recommended limiting attendance to two commissioners so quorum for the regular May meeting is preserved.
The commission also introduced Justin Pulliam, who joined the city as a senior planner. Pulliam told commissioners, "It's an honor to join the city of Missouri City as a senior planner," and the director said Pulliam brings several years of experience, including work for Harris County and the private sector.
Staff framed the training and the hire as support for the commission—s workload while the comprehensive-plan review proceeds. The director said staff will take the commission—s recommendation to council after the commission completes its special meeting.
Less-urgent items in the staff report included preparations for distributing the commission—s 2025 group photograph for communications and reminders about routine staff processes.
The commission did not hold a public-comment segment on these staff items at the March 12 meeting.
