The City of Fulshear Development Corporation voted on July 13 to adopt CDC Resolution 2026‑01, declaring the projects the corporation intends to undertake for fiscal year 2026–27, directing staff to publish notice, and setting a public hearing. The board amended the resolution to correct a budget line and to set the Fulshear Business Entrepreneurship Hub funding at $20,000 (revising a $25,000 figure in the draft) before approving the resolution by a 4–1 vote.
During the presentation staff noted that the related B board had agreed to fund two projects — a South FM 1093 gravity-line improvement ($900,000) and an FM 359/4th Street drainage improvement ($850,680) — for a combined B board contribution of $1,750,680. Staff emphasized that declaring projects and publishing notice starts the state‑law process that enables the corporation to spend funds by the October 1 fiscal start if all notices and hearings are completed.
Board members discussed whether to postpone the declaration to increase leverage with council but most urged moving forward so construction and associated work can proceed on schedule. A member asked staff to read the resolution title verbatim for the record and pointed out the entrepreneurship hub line needed correction; staff proposed the $20,000 figure to match the previously approved budget and the board accepted that amendment.
Why it matters: the resolution launches the legal notice period and public‑hearing timetable required under state law before EDC funds can be spent on declared projects. The amendment to the entrepreneurship hub number aligns the published resolution with the board’s budget decision.
The resolution was moved and seconded and carried 4–1. Staff will publish the notice and set the public hearing as required by law.
