With about a month until Houston City Council's deadline to approve a budget for fiscal year 2026, the city's chief financial officer is raising concerns about the lack of a final decision in a lawsuit over city spending on streets and drainage. The lawsuit, filed in 2019 by two Houston-based engineers, made the case that the city was shortchanging a voter-mandated fund for street and drainage projects.
