MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR
Despite challenges in 2021, Pearland continued to position itself as the Community of Choice in the Greater Houston Area during this past year. We have continually adapted to the “new normal” as we encounter new experiences almost every day. The 2019 Bond Program is well underway with many completed projects slated for early 2022. As the population in the Houston Metropolitan Area increased, Pearland saw the official 2020 census reach 125,825—that’s a 37 percent growth in the past 10 years! Providing services for the increasing population will continue to be challenging, but it should inspire all of us to be creative in planning for the future. It is our job to continue upgrading our City services and infrastructure to meet the growth, maintain our quality of life as a safe and livable city and keep our great sense of community-- all while being good stewards of the tax dollars entrusted to your professional public servants. Pearland is known for our quality of life. We must continue to attract corporate headquarters, high-value retailers and quality industrial development. These efforts will increase our tax base and help support our growth. As your Mayor, I welcome and encourage all our residents to participate in our local government. Together we will continue to make Pearland a special place. My goal, as always, is to make Pearland the Community of Choice.
KEVIN COLE Mayor, City of Pearland
