The City of Friendswood’s number one priority is the health and safety of our residents. The City continues to work with public health and emergency management officials throughout the region to ensure our communities remain prepared. We encourage community members to remain calm and prepared, and ask that you continue to follow public health guidance for COVID-19.

The City of Friendswood encourages businesses and the public to follow the advice of the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the Galveston County Health District. It will take all of us, as a community, to slow the spread of COVID-19 and protect those who are older or may have a chronic medical condition. Let’s do our part.
