Meet Your New Commissioner

Born and raised in the Northside, Precinct 2 has always been home to Commissioner Adrian Garcia. His 35-year career in public service began as a Houston Police Officer. In 1994, he was appointed by Mayor Lee Brown as Director of the Mayor’s Anti- Gang Office, and in 2003, was elected to Houston City Council. During his tenure, he served as Chair on two City Council committees — the Public Safety and Homeland Security Committee and the Minority / Women Business Enterprise Committee. With the support of his peers, Mayor Bill White confirmed him as Mayor Pro-Tem.

In 2008, Commissioner Garcia continued his service by being elected as the Harris County Sheriff — the largest sheriff's office in Texas and the 3rd largest in the United States. On November 6th, 2018, he was elected Harris County Commissioner for Precinct 2, which serves more than 1.1 million people.

In support of Nassau Bay, Commissioner Garcia and the Harris County Commissioners' Court recently approved the City's partnership project with the Harris County Flood Control District to reduce flood risks in the Clear Creek Watershed. The City of Nassau Bay will receive partial funding for the project to update the storm water pump systems along Upper Bay Road in an effort to minimize flooding during heavy rain events.

Commissioner Garcia is committed to working every day to make Precinct 2 and all of Harris County a place where everyone who wants a job can get a job, where everyone can afford to rent or own a home, and where our kids and seniors can walk to church, park or school without fear of crime.

The City of Nassau Bay looks forward to working with you Commissioner Garcia!
