RICHMOND, Texas – The City of Richmond says Fort Bend County owes roughly $700,000 for emergency services the city provided to unincorporated areas over the past two years, and city leaders on Tuesday adopted a resolution demanding clarity on who will pay going forward.

Richmond officials say the city has continued to respond to fire and emergency medical calls in areas outside its limits even though the county’s extra‑territorial jurisdiction agreement that allowed those services expired in early 2024. The city previously received about $350,000 a year from the county for those services, Fire Chief Mike Legoudas said.

“We were being paid $350,000 a year to provide services to those areas,” Legoudas said.
