The Missouri City Council meeting on July 21, 2025, focused on several key initiatives aimed at improving local infrastructure and services. Among the most significant discussions were proposals for water quality studies and a feasibility analysis for reclaimed water.

One major item on the agenda was the authorization to execute a professional services contract with Cividus Engineering Group for a water quality blending study. This study, costing up to $51,000, will assess the impact of blending surface water with existing groundwater in the Mustang Bayou service area. The goal is to determine if additional treatment is necessary to ensure water quality.

Another important proposal involved a professional services agreement with BGE for a reclaimed water feasibility analysis, with a budget not to exceed $113,000. This analysis aims to identify practical methods for reducing reliance on groundwater, aligning with the city's groundwater reduction plan.

The council also addressed a change order for reservoir cleaning with Paragon Environmental Services, amounting to approximately $451,000. This adjustment accounts for an additional 5,000 cubic yards of material identified during the project, although the overall project remains under budget.

Other items included a request for a supplemental agreement with Primary Arms LLC for the purchase of firearms and related accessories, totaling up to $240,000 over three years. The council also discussed an agreement with the Fort Bend County tax assessor-collector for the collection of city taxes and a proposal to write off approximately $6,500 in property taxes that have been delinquent for over ten years.

Additionally, the council approved a supplemental contract with Seabreeze Roofing for roofing repairs and assessments at city facilities, capped at $60,000 per year. Lastly, the meeting included the second reading of an ordinance for a new franchise agreement with CenterPoint Energy, which would impose a franchise fee of 4% on gross revenues.

These discussions reflect the council's ongoing commitment to enhancing city services and infrastructure while managing financial resources effectively.
