6:00 pm: City of Katy Public hearing6:00 pm: City of Katy Public hearing –
Home Rule: The City Council met on January 10 to consider setting the date for the public hearing on reinstatement in accordance with Article IV, Section 7, of the Home Rule Charter, as requested by Rachael Crivelli. Home Rule is granted by state constitution or state statute and allocates some autonomy to a local government if the local government accepts certain conditions. Home Rule implies that each level of government has a separate realm of authority. The purpose of Home Rule is to allow for local solutions to local issues and problems. A municipality with home rule status can exercise any power and perform any function unless it is specifically prohibited from doing so by state law. Texas is one of 46 states that has adopted Home Rule. A city may adopt Home Rule once their population exceeds 5,000 and the voters adopt a city charter. Cities with populations of 5,000 or less, are governed by general law only. |
