Cy-Fair ISD, Texas Legislature prioritize school safety heading into 2023 24
Pull the newest teaser from CC Libraries
A major school safety bill the Texas Legislature approved this year will require armed o cers to be on all public school campuses during school hours in addition to mental health training for most school sta . Gov. Greg Abbott signed House Bill 3 into law June 14. It provides BY DANICA LLOYD & DAVE MANNING
districts with $15,000 per campus and increases the safety allotment by 28 cents per student—from $9.72 to $10—to fund safety expenses. Cy-Fair ISD’s Chief Financial O cer Karen Smith said the district should receive an additional $1.4 million per year for safety—about 3% of what the district already planned to spend on
safety measures in 2023-24. “It’s such a minimal amount that we’re receiving with that safety and security allotment that I don’t know that we have it earmarked speci cally to one intervention or one measure but just to continue to o set the cost that we currently have,” CFISD Chief CONTINUED ON 26

Precinct 1 Commissioner Rodney Ellis spearheaded the commission’s launch in March 2022 with a goal to improve health, economic opportunity and safety for the women living in Harris County. This was the first report from the nine-member group, which will hold community town halls and release an annual report as its work progresses. HARRIS COUNTY For low- priority calls to the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, more deputies will be available to respond virtually thanks to a $1.7 million investment from county commissioners June 27. Harris County Commissioners Court unanimously approved the allocation of federal American Rescue Plan Act funds to add overtime officers to HCSO’s TeleDeputy unit. The unit responds only to nonviolent calls—such as an abandoned vehicle or a crime tip—which make up about 60% of HCSO’s total calls, officials said. HCSO’s response time for emergency calls is about 14 minutes; the commissioners’ investment in the TeleDeputy unit is expected to bring the response time down to 10 minutes. JERSEY VILLAGE Officials with the city of Jersey Village broke ground on a new clubhouse at Jersey Meadow Golf Club on July 24 to celebrate the start of construction on the $8.72 million renovation that will include converting the existing clubhouse space into an event center. The project will include a new clubhouse, new pro shop, office space, new bar and grill, new bathrooms, event space and storage. Brookstone Construction is building out the space, which was designed by FGM Architects.
County considering affordable housing tax exemption policy
BY MELISSA ENAJE
HOUSING COST BURDEN A countywide housing needs assessment and 10-year strategy in October 2021 found nearly 500,000 families are paying more than they can afford for their homes.
HARRIS COUNTY A policy that will consider property tax exemptions for affordable housing owners is moving forward after a unanimous Commis- sioners Court vote July 18. Why it matters: An existing Texas tax code already provides exemptions to certain organizations that meet low-income housing requirements, but each local governing jurisdiction has to approve the tax exemption and specify the allowed threshold amount, said Mary Lawler, the CEO of Avenue, a Houston-based nonprofit affordable housing builder. “We are struggling right now with rising costs for our apartments and our ability to keep our rents affordable to working families and seniors who are really in need,” she said. How we got here: In April, com- missioners directed several county departments, including the Commu- nity Services Department, to establish a policy related to the approval of tax

exemptions for certain low-income housing projects. The department presented its preliminary policy to commissioners in July, and the finalized exemption policy is projected for completion by the end of August.
The bigger picture: The policy could make it more financially feasible for certain organizations to build afford- able housing units. A 2021 study found nearly 500,000 households in the county are paying more for housing than they can afford.

Harris County sues state over election bill
Jersey Village prepares for FY 2023-24 budget
BY MELISSA ENAJE
HARRIS COUNTY Leaders in Harris County officially filed a lawsuit against the state in an attempt to allow the courts to decide how it should run elections—a challenge to Senate Bill 1750, a recently passed law that eliminated the county’s election administrator office. “We’re suing because this law vio- lates the Texas Constitution,” Harris County Attorney Christian Menefee said July 6. “We are filing a lawsuit to undo Senate Bill 1750, the law that botches the EA’s office in only Harris County. ... This is about protecting Harris County elections.” The county attorney’s office will be going to court and ask the judge to temporarily block SB 1750 from going into effect on Sept. 1, Menefee said. “What we don’t want is a situation where no court has agreed with us and we have an election to run in November 2023,” he said.

JERSEY VILLAGE In July, the Jersey Village City Council discussed proposed bond referen- dums and the proposed city budget for fiscal year 2023-24. Budget explained: The proposed budget will bring in about 8.24% more revenue than last year. • The proposed budget estimates $29.3 million in expenses. • Estimated revenue is calculated at the current tax rate of $0.7425 per $100 valuation. • Sales and property taxes will bring in $13.65 million, about 60% of the city’s revenue. • The largest city expense is emergency services—$9.7 million in the proposed budget.

budget reflects rising inflation, infrastructure cost increases and residents’ expectations for repairs of parks, streets and other services, city officials said. What’s next: Council is set to adopt a budget at its Aug. 21 meeting before the beginning of the new fiscal year in September. The city is currently seeking public and internal input on the projects.

New ‘historic’ state law to reward community colleges for performance
REVERSING THE TREND Since 1980, the state’s contribution to Texas’ 50 community colleges has been steadily declining, causing the institutions to rely more on property taxes and tuition. O cials are hopeful a new law passed in the 88th Texas Legislature this year will provide a path to more state funding to meet workforce needs. Revenue breakdown of Texas community colleges over time
BY JAMES T. NORMAN
colleges in Texas has been signi cantly updated in 50 years, Lone Star College Chancellor Stephen Head said. LSC has eight colleges in the North Houston area, according to its website. As part of the Texas Commission on Community College Finance tasked with helping bring the bill forward, Head said for a long time he’s told state o cials the old system was not sustainable. “Community college nancing has been an issue for more than a decade,” Head said. Along with not aligning everyone’s goals in a cohesive direction, the old formula often punished smaller colleges—a system Head described as creating “haves and have-nots.” For example, many rural areas are losing their population to larger metro areas, Head said. That makes it di cult for smaller colleges in those places to keep their operations going as enrollment drops. And sometimes, due to the state having a xed amount of funds every biennium, even when those colleges do have increases in enrollment, it’s still proportionately lower than the increases larger colleges see, result- ing in lost revenue, Soto said. The new model Beyond helping community colleges nd sustainable revenue, the goal of the new law is to drive more students into high-demand jobs. The law also has a newly placed emphasis on noncredit paths, Soto said. Those are paths that require
Houston-area community college leaders are describing a new state law that transforms how their colleges receive funding from Texas as “groundbreaking” and “historic.” House Bill 8 will invest $683 million into the state’s community colleges and incentivize them to help students earn more credits and certi cation in high-demand elds. The bill will also incentivize colleges to help students transfer to four-year universities and provide more funding to them for high schoolers who complete dual- credit courses through their institu- tion, higher education o cials said. It’s a shift away from the old model, which gives colleges money based on their enrollment and the number of hours they are in contact with students, o cials said. The bill was signed into law by Gov. Greg Abbott in June and received majority support, said Renzo Soto, policy adviser at Texas 2036, a nonpar- tisan public policy think tank. “I have not seen a signi cant edu- cation reform package not only pass, but also move through the process, with this level of uni ed support,” Soto said. The goal is to help train Texas’ workforce to take high-demand jobs that require less than a bachelor’s degree but more than a high school diploma, Soto said. The old model HB 8 represents the rst time the funding model for community

Statewide, nurses and educators are needed as well. While community colleges in
Houston and around the state are expecting funding to increase as a result of the law, many of those details still need to be worked out, said Teri Zamora, vice chancellor for scal a airs at San Jacinto College. However, thanks to a new in ux of $683 million paired with the bill, many colleges will receive a revenue boost for the 2023-24 school year to help deal with the transition, said Marshall Heins, chief nancial o cer and senior vice chancellor of nance and administration for Houston Community College.

BILLS THAT DIDN'T MAKE THE CUT Senate Bill 9 Sen. Brandon Creighton, R-Conroe The bill would have improved teacher retention by providing bonuses, creating a teacher residency program and helping schools rehire retired teachers.
Retired teachers age 75 and older will receive a one-time $7,500 check, and retirees ages 70-74 will get a $2,400 check. Teachers who retired before 2001 will get a 6% cost-of-living adjustment, and those who retired between 2001-13 will get 4%. Status: Becomes law Sept. 1; cost-of- living adjustment takes e ect Jan. 1 if approved by voters in November
By the 2025-26 school year, all public and charter school classrooms must have silent panic alert devices.

The bill would have raised minimum salaries for public school employees, boosted funding schools receive from the state and increased money for certain programs. Lawmakers are expected to return to Austin for a third special legislative session in October. They will likely discuss teacher pay raises, school funding and school choice.
All public and open-enrollment charter schools must have at least one armed security o cer—such as a law enforcement o cer, school marshal or teacher licensed to carry a handgun—on campus during regular school hours. Each district will receive $15,000 per campus and $10 per student for school safety initiatives. Status: Becomes law Sept. 1
