Legislative Affairs
The City of Irving’s Legislative Affairs office advocates, coordinates and advances the city’s legislative agenda to enhance Irving’s ability to govern and provide essential municipal and community services.
Irving engages legislators and agency representatives at all levels, and does so with the assistance of legislative consultants. The city’s legislative efforts include providing written responses and in-person testimony to the state legislature by City Council members and city staff on issues important to the community.
Irving City Council adopted its priorities for the 89th Texas Legislative Session (2025) on Dec. 12, 2024. The program guides city elected officials, staff and consultants to determine what positions the city should take as legislation is filed.
Legislative Priorities Explained
Legislative program priorities are identified through input from city staff, legislative consultants, other professional organizations and input provided by the City Council.
Adoption of a legislative program identifies issues that are important to the city and establishes a unified voice for Irving on the legislative needs of the community.
The legislative items are not presented in priority order and the City Council may modify or amend its legislative agenda at any time to address items as they arise.
