Webster City Council

Webster City Council met in executive session Tuesday night to discuss the vacancy in the city manager's office since Frank Simpson moved to Missouri City, then voted to authorize Mayor Donna Rogers to contact candidates who have applied and schedule interviews with the city council.

The city council voted 6-1, with Steve Waltz opposed, to establish a speed limit of 50 miles per hour along the I-45 frontage roads from the north city limit to the south city limit.

The city council voted unanimously to call an election on May 15 for three city council positions.  The seats held by Natalie Dolan, Jack Temple and Carlos Villagomez are up for election.

The city council approved a resolution in support of the retention and expansion of military units at Ellington Field.
