HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH
FROM NICOLE: Our front-page story this month looks at some of the important but sometimes invisible changes that are happening around The Woodlands—improvements in the infrastructure. We look at plans for upgrading and expanding wastewater treatment systems as well as aging water lines in the coming years and how those projects are being funded. Also, see Page 37 for a look back at some of the action-packed events that took place in April in the area. Nicole Preston, GENERAL MANAGER
FROM VANESSA: As the regular session of the Texas Legislature ends in May, our coverage includes several bills authored by The Woodlands area’s state Sen. Brandon Creighton regarding education (see Page 22). Senate Bill 8 pertains to making vouchers for private schools available to students, and SB 9 proposes raises for public school teachers. We also talk to Conroe ISD o cials who oppose elements of the plans. Vanessa Holt, SENIOR EDITOR
CORRECTION: Vol. 12, Issue 8: On Page 42, the Houston-Galveston Area Council was incorrectly identi ed as the Harris-Galveston Area Council.
