The mayor's office in the city of Houston
released new changes to the proposed ordinance
to regulate the automotive repair and
collision industry. The Houston City Council
did not reach a final conclusion on the Feb.
14 ordinance proposal but opted to refer the
ordinance back to the administration. There
has been no date set for the ordinance to be
reconsidered.
Automotive Service Association (ASA)
members in Houston opposed the proposed
ordinance and will continue to work to ensure
that any ordinance approved by the city
council will treat consumers and repairers
fairly.

effort – including the letter sent to the
