County Judge Bob Hebert Participates in Hurricane Harvey Recovery Panel

FORT BEND COUNTY, TX – On January 11, 2018, Fort Bend County Judge Bob Hebert participated in a Disaster Response and Recovery Panel at the Texas Conference of Urban Counties Education, Policy and Technology Conference in Corpus Christi.   Judge Hebert shared his experience as Fort Bend County Emergency Management Director during Hurricane Harvey with member county officials from across the state. Harris County Judge Ed Emmett and Nueces County Judge Lloyd Neal also shared the panel.

County Judge Bob Hebert said, “It was obvious that although there was only one Harvey, the storm’s impact manifested its destruction across the disaster area in many different ways. Regardless of whether the damage was driven by the wind, storm surge or the rains, all three counties reinforced their commitment to continue to engage State and Federal agencies for the benefit of those who suffered loss.”

Fort Bend County Receives Investment from Petco Foundation

FORT BEND COUNTY, TX – On December 7, 2017, County Judge Bob Hebert visited Fort Bend County Animal Services (FBCAS) to congratulate the department on their recent recognition from the Petco Foundation. In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, the Petco Foundation delivered more than $2.5 million to Houston-area animal welfare organizations.

FBCAS received a $75,000 investment in recognition of the lifesaving efforts done at the shelter. The investment will help fund lifesaving programs planned for the shelter including increasing community awareness of pets and encouraging participation in shelter events and activities, allocating funds to the medical team, providing resources to field officers, and funding pilot programs to increase lifesaving efforts for community cats.

County Judge Bob Hebert said, “We greatly appreciate the Petco Foundation’s support of our Animal Services activities. This money will help us save the lives of many animals and let them find loving homes”.
