Montgomery County commissioners received an update on the current state of the 2025 road bond program and debated the creation of ad hoc committees at the Feb. 26 Commissioners Court meeting.

What we know: Budget Officer Amanda Carter said the February road bond monthly financial report showed that with $2.6 million in interest earnings, the county's bond funds totaled $130.6 million, of which $106 million was allocated to projects and $24 million was left. She said they were currently working on the next issuance.

Also of note: Carter discussed forming ad hoc committees to assist with the annual process of budget preparation; however, commissioners said that they weren’t ready to make a decision. The ad hoc committee ideas were for:

• Budget calendar
• Compensation
• Capital improvement
• Judicial relations
• Outside entities/social services

The Houston Methodist Breast Care Center at The Woodlands celebrated a decade of service, according to a Feb. 26 news release. 

The two-minute impact: Since opening in 2016, the center has served more than 200,000 patients, becoming a regional destination for screenings and diagnostic care for residents locally and from communities several hours outside the Houston area, according to the release.

Officials said the facility was created to expand access to early detection services closer to home while providing individualized care in a supportive setting.

The center offers advanced imaging and diagnostic services, including digital mammography, 3D breast imaging, ultrasound, MRI screenings and image-guided biopsies designed to detect abnormalities earlier and improve treatment outcomes, per the release.

According to the release, the facility is now recognized as a Breast Imaging Center of Excellence and holds accreditation through the National Accreditation Program for Breast Centers.
