Council approves nomination of Dennis Gordon to West Harris County Regional Water Authority; members ask about residency
Summary
Council nominated Dennis Gordon to the West Harris County Regional Water Authority (Precinct 9) but a council member questioned his City of Katy residency; staff referenced the creating statute requiring residency in Precinct 9 or City of Katy residency or prior city service.
The Katy City Council approved a resolution nominating Dennis Gordon to serve as a director for Precinct 9 on the West Harris County Regional Water Authority at its June 12 meeting.
A council member asked how the nomination could proceed because Dennis Gordon is not a City of Katy resident. Staff replied that the law creating the Authority requires directors to live in the precinct (which encompasses City of Katy plus MUDs) or be City of Katy residents or former city officials. Council members expressed appreciation for Gordon’s willingness to serve on a challenging regional board before approving the nomination by voice vote.
