Item 72 Passedunofficial
In plain language — from the agenda backup
With Houston hosting a slate of 2026 FIFA World Cup matches, this ratifies an interlocal agreement to send Austin Police officers to help with law enforcement during those events. The City of Houston reimburses Austin for the public safety services provided, so the costs are covered by Houston rather than Austin taxpayers.
