The annual Public Official of the Year Award Luncheon will honor a regional public official for his or her dedication and service to their community. Many elected, appointed and career officials were nominated for this honor. The winner will be announced at the luncheon. Jeff Moseley, former CEO of the Greater Houston Partnership, will give the keynote speech on how government — and the public service professionals that lead and populate it — works each day to improve the greater Houston region.

Last year's winner was Daniel W. Krueger, director of the City of Houston’s Department of Public Works and Engineering. 

Parking is available in the Welcome Center Garage, and will be validated. The event is free; guests must RSVP to jcrains@uh.edu.
