After a May road bond proposal was struck down by voters,
The Montgomery County Commissioners court and Texas Patriots PAC have reached
an agreement on a $280 Million Road Bond Proposal that will be on the November
ballot.
After a crushing defeat at the polls, Montgomery County
Officials have displayed a shining light of how working together can be
obtained.
In May, a $350 Million Montgomery County road bond was shot
down by voters. Complaints included a proposed Woodlands Parkway extension
and a significant amount of the money going to road maintenance. It looked like
Montgomery County would not get their road bond, a county of 500,000 people,
projected to reach 1 Million by the next decade.
The primary opposition group was the Texas Patriots PAC. After
negotiations were held, The Texas Patriots PAC and Montgomery County
Commissioners Court reached an agreement on a road bond proposal that will now
go to the voters in November, along with the Texas Patriots PAC’s endorsement.
I am very happy that an important road bond proposal happened.
This is a shining example of how in Houston, we can work together.
