Last spring the Planning Commission established
6 committees to identify growth related issues that need attention.
The six committees presented their reports to the full Planning
Commission in May. http://www.houstontx.gov/planning/PC_committees/PChome.htm

need further study and immediately established the committees
listed below to recommend policies, ordinances , standards
and or incentives as needed..
The committees will be comprised of citizens, developers
and public officials. They are expected to begin meeting in
