Deer Park council adopts standards of care for All Star after‑school program

The Deer Park City Council voted to adopt an ordinance setting standards of care for the city’s All Star after‑school activity program for the 2026–27 Deer Park Independent School District year. The ordinance was presented and read on Aug. 4, 2026; Councilman Justin Lee moved approval and Councilman Ford seconded the motion, which the council carried.

City staff read the ordinance language during the meeting. Jim Fox read: "Ordinance of the city of Deer Park adopting standards of care for the city's after school program." Council members closed the previously opened public hearing after issuing three calls and hearing no testimony, then proceeded to the formal vote. The measure received typical council procedure — a motion, a second and an affirmative voice vote — and was recorded as carried.
