Budgeting for the downtown reimagining initiative will be handled on a yearly basis, Stuebe said. However, some projects will span budget cycles, which will allow the city to track spending on the projects without the need to seek outside funding through bonds or other debt. One suggestion outlined in the downtown assessment was the relocation of Humble City Hall. However, Stuebe said the city is not currently looking at moving City Hall due to the associated costs. While a move could be possible in the future, Stuebe said current city funding does not allow for the project to be scheduled. While only $50,100 was allocated out of the city’s FY 2023-24 budget, Stuebe noted additional funding for more downtown projects will be allotted during future budget workshops and as needed.
“The focus right now is going to be on doing some of those low-hanging fruit items. We've got to look into it a little bit more to see what we can a ord now, see what needs to be pushed o to next year.” JASON STUEBE, HUMBLE CITY MANAGER
Humble City Hall is located at 114 W. Higgins Street.

“We do realize that we want to be a comfortable place for people who live here. We want to be a place where people want to come to live, play and work. So that is the goal: to tell the story of local places,” JENNIFER WOODEN, HUMBLE CIVIC CENTER DIRECTOR
