Super Neighborhood Alliance approves corrected January minutes, hears officer nominee and schedules mayor Q&A for March
Summary
The Alliance approved corrected January minutes after a brief objection, introduced Philip Salerno as a candidate for SNA chair and announced the mayor will attend the March meeting for Q&A and officer elections.
The Super Neighborhood Alliance approved corrected minutes from its January meeting after the chair noted spelling corrections to members’ names and a member registered an objection over missing direction in the minutes. A motion to approve the corrected minutes was moved and seconded and the chair declared them approved by show of hands.
Why it matters: The Alliance manages civic coordination among Houston super neighborhood councils; approval of minutes and officer nominations are routine governance steps ahead of elections. Members also used the forum to press elected-staff liaisons on budget season and drainage fee conversations.
Philip Salerno introduced himself as a nominee for SNA chair, described a long record of community and regional service, and proposed that the Alliance appoint representatives to monitor city council committees and report back monthly under city code section 33.3.223.
During open forum the chair announced the mayor has agreed to attend the March meeting; members were asked to gather questions in advance because officer elections will occur at that meeting. A roll call recorded participation from many super neighborhood councils and several city and county offices provided updates on budget workshops, town halls and local events.
What’s next: Officer elections and mayor Q&A are scheduled for the March meeting; members were advised to compile questions and agenda items ahead of time.
