Legislative Task Force

The goal of the Legislative Task Force (LTF) is to provide a public engagement component to the creation of the city’s legislative agenda. The LTF examines specific legislative issues that impact the way the city provides public services.

The 13-member LTF is comprised of two independent homeowners, one Home Owner’s Association representative, three business owners, two members of Sugar Land’s Boards and Commissions, one Sugar Land 101 current student or alumnus, one Fort Bend County staff member, one Fort Bend Independent School District staff member, one Lamar Consolidated Independent School District staff member and one student (age 18 or above). 

The Legislative Citizen Task Force’s commitment will begin in June 2024 and will end December 2025. The LTF will have five meetings in June and July 2024. After this five-meeting commitment, they will meet monthly during the legislative session, January 2024 through May 2024, with the Office of Intergovernmental Relations to receive legislative updates and to provide feedback on legislative issues. Post-session, the LTF will meet as needed. 

During the first five meetings, LTF members received information from key city staff, legislative partners and legislative consultants who specialize in municipal issues. Issues include, but are not limited to municipal revenue and finance, land use, regulation and development, economic development, advocacy, and public safety. The monthly meetings will allow the LTF to receive legislative updates from city staff and provide feedback on legislative issues.
