Residents of Rosenberg gathered for a town hall meeting led by City Manager John Marsh to discuss upcoming capital improvement projects. The meeting featured a presentation by Rigo Carlsonstein, the Executive Director of Public Services, who outlined the city’s plans for fiscal year 2024.
A key highlight of the discussion was the announcement of a significant grant awarded to the city. In 2021, Rosenberg received a $47.5 million grant from the Texas General Land Office aimed at addressing drainage issues within the community. This funding is part of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) mitigation program, which is designed to enhance infrastructure and improve resilience against flooding.
The meeting underscored the city’s commitment to improving public services and infrastructure, with a focus on addressing long-standing drainage concerns that have affected residents. Further details on additional projects were expected to be shared in subsequent discussions, as the city continues to prioritize community needs through strategic investments.
