Council reauthorizes Fort Bend Basketball license and reappoints Sienna Management District directors

The City Council on May 5 authorized a limited license for the Fort Bend Basketball Association to use the Missouri City Recreation Tennis Center gymnasium for youth leagues and camps and reappointed two directors to the Sienna Management District board.

These actions sustain a long-standing recreational partnership and maintain local executive representation on the Sienna Management District board, which oversees development and services in the Sienna area.

A representative for Fort Bend Basketball Association asked the council to authorize continuation of its license as a longtime partner and provider of recreational basketball leagues. The resolution authorizes the city manager to execute a license agreement permitting the association to conduct youth basketball leagues and camps in the Recreation Tennis Center gymnasium.

City Secretary Crystal Rohn presented the Sienna Management District item and said the district forwarded two nominees. The council reappointed Dana Osborne to Position 4 and John Knox to Position 5 of the Sienna Management District board for terms to expire June 1, 2029. Rohn told council the slate was presented by the district and, under state law, must be approved as submitted.

Council member Klausler moved approval of the basketball license; Mayor Pro Tem Sonia Brown Marshall seconded. For the Sienna reappointments the motion was made by Council member Clouser and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Brown Marshall. Both measures passed by unanimous vote.

The votes authorize staff to execute the license agreement and record the board reappointments; no council debate was recorded on either item.
