League City City Council
by Dedra Kratts

League City City Council unanimously approved an action to begin the first phase in a planning, design, and construction agreement with Big League Dreams USA, a California-based firm.  The new sports park will include facilities for baseball, basketball, indoor soccer, or skating.  

The city council approved a special use permit, requested by T-Mobile of Houston, for the construction of a cellular antenna and other equipment on the existing tower located at 600 Walker Street.  

“We’re looking forward to improving the service of the community,” said T-Mobile representative, Michael Baty.  

The city council unanimously approved a variance to permit College of the Mainland to erect an off-premises sign at the corner of FM 518 and Parker Court.

The city council voted to table action on a proposed procedure to provide merit compensation for employees who have reached their maximum salary.  Mayor Jeff Harrison complained that the procedure lacks clarification.
