A MESSAGE FROM COMMISSIONER LESLEY BRIONES

I hope you and your family have been able to spend quality time together making memories and enjoying the summer!

Families are the core of strong communities, and creating a community where all families can thrive is what drives me and my Precinct 4 team.

First and foremost, public safety remains our top priority. My team and I are committed to improving safety for all people in Precinct 4 and Harris County. I am always thinking of the safety of my three daughters—and all children. In this issue of Precinct 4 Your Information, you will find a snapshot of the progress we have made in justice and safety since taking office in January 2023.

When disaster strikes, Precinct 4 steps up to keep you and your family safe. In the wake of the destructive windstorm on May 16, my Precinct 4 team and I worked day and night to lead in the recovery efforts and get our community back on its feet. Our Road & Bridge crews mobilized within minutes after the storm blew through the County to move fallen trees and clear debris, even extending their massive cleanup efforts into the City of Houston. Our team also swiftly opened distribution and cooling centers throughout our Precinct.

And we have been hard at work expanding programming for all ages at our community centers and parks. This summer, and throughout the year, we want these spaces—your spaces—to be like a second home for your family. Be sure to visit Precinct 4’s events and programs page (cp4.harriscountytx.gov/events) to see free recurring classes and special events happening at a community center near you.

It is an honor to serve the 1.2 million people of Precinct 4. I look forward to seeing you and your families at our community events, listening tour stops, and other exciting festivities across our vibrant County. Together, our strong families will keep building an even stronger community!

All my best,

Commissioner Lesley Briones
