Friendswood residents have until June 30 to weigh in on proposed bond projects

Date:

Time is running out for Friendswood residents who want to help shape the city’s next potential bond election.

City officials are encouraging residents to complete the 2026 Bond Proposition Survey before it closes on June 30. The survey is part of the city’s effort to gather public input on a proposed bond package that could fund a variety of capital improvement projects throughout the City of Friendswood.

The survey results will be compiled and presented to the Friendswood City Council during its July 6 meeting, where elected officials will continue discussions about the recommendations submitted by the city’s 2026 Bond Ad Hoc Committee.

The committee spent several months evaluating community needs and developing recommendations for future investments in areas such as drainage improvements, parks and recreation facilities, public buildings, and other infrastructure projects. Earlier this month, the committee presented a proposed bond package totaling approximately $50.9 million.

City leaders say public feedback will play an important role as council members determine which projects, if any, should ultimately be placed before voters.

“The City Council and Staff want to hear from you,” the city stated in a recent email announcement urging residents to participate in the survey process.

In addition to completing the survey, residents can review the Bond Ad Hoc Committee’s recommendations, project lists, and presentations through the city’s bond election webpage at ci.friendswood.tx.us/841/2026-Bond-Ad-Hoc-Committee. The site includes background information on the committee’s work and the projects currently under consideration.

The survey is available online through June 30. Links can be found on the bond committee website. Residents with questions about the process may contact the City Secretary’s Office at 281-996-3270 or email 2026bond@friendswood.com.

With only a short time remaining before the survey closes, city officials are encouraging residents to share their opinions now to ensure their voices are included before council begins considering the next steps in the bond election process.
