Items of note
The board will consider expediting the search process to pick a new law firm to represent the district, with attorney interviews planned for mid-November. The district’s previous legal counsel Mills Shirley resigned Oct. 19, board President Naressa MacKinnon said during an Oct. 20 special-called meeting.
On Oct. 20, the board temporarily appointed attorney David Manley from Coveler & Peeler to provide legal counsel to ESD 9 in the meantime.
The board will also hear project updates about two fire stations undergoing design, which are part of the department’s plan to add eight new fire stations to the community over the next several years.
Other agenda items include:
- Review a potential new HR platform for the fire department
- Discuss and take action on land acquisitions for new fire stations
- Approve an agreement with the Houston Community College System to support clinical education for students in the EMT program
