Sports Authority names Canetti as interim CEO The Harris County-Houston Sports Authority has named Chris Canetti as interim CEO. What we know Ocials announced Oct. 14 that Canetti will temporarily ll the spot left by former longtime CEO Janis Burke. Canetti serves as president of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Host Committee. According to a news release from HCHSA, he will continue to serve in that capacity while acting as interim CEO. Friedman said Canetti has a proven track record of success in Houston. In the meantime, Friedman said HCHSA leadership will organize a special committee that will be tasked with identifying and hiring a permanent CEO. In case you missed it The HCHSA’s board of directors voted
Jersey Village to sell 10.9-acre plot of land After years of planning to bring retail and entertainment to Jersey Village south of Hwy. 290, the city is moving in another direction. What’s happening City Council voted Oct. 28 to authorize the sale of 10.885 acres of land to Lovett Indus- trial for $4.27 million, Mayor Bobby Warren said in a Facebook post. This money will cover the property purchased from Champion Forest Baptist Church in August for the relocation of City Hall. “We did our best to market the property to developers for mixed use. Unfortunately, we couldn’t nd anyone who was able to carry through on that vision,” Warren said in response to a comment on the Facebook post. The city still owns 23 acres at the site, which Warren said will also be sold.
unanimously Oct. 11 to release Burke after 18 years of service. The vote came on the heels of Houston Mayor John Whitmire sharing that he had received several complaints from
sports venue owners and stakeholders that HCHSA had become dicult to collaborate with and had “moved away from its core mission.” The HCHSA board is made up of 13 members conrmed by the Houston City Council and Harris County Commissioners Court. In addition to choos- ing the CEO, the board is tasked with maintaining sports venues and promoting sports-related events in the county. Burke shared a post on LinkedIn thanking the Houston community for their love and support over the course of her career. As of press time, Burke has declined additional request for comment.

Property tax bills to increase for Cy-Fair ISD homeowners
Local property owners will pay an average of $10.44 more in taxes to Cy-Fair ISD in scal year 2024-25 than in FY 2023-24 as the board approved increasing the property tax rate in a 5-2 vote at an Oct. 7 meeting. This higher rate, which was recommended by district administration, is expected to bring an additional $33.9 million in revenue for FY 2024-25 as CFISD faces an estimated $77.5 million budget shortfall following budget cuts. Superintendent Doug Killian said this move would help the district avoid further budget cuts in FY 2025-26. The breakdown The board approved a property tax rate of $1.0869 per $100 valuation —up from $1.0811 per $100 valuation in FY 2023-24. Community Impact previously reported CFISD could take advantage of “disaster pennies” when adopting the FY 2024-25 tax rate. According to the state’s public school funding system, this enables

districts to adopt a higher tax rate in the year following a disaster declaration to help them cover costs incurred by events such as hurricanes and oods without needing voter approval. CFISD will incorporate two disaster pennies into the tax rate after seeing a spike in insurance costs following a January 2023 tornado that hit south- east Harris County, Chief Financial Ocer Karen Smith said.
Those opposed One of the two opposing votes came from trustee Christine Kalmbach, who said she was against raising property taxes. Trustee Natalie Blasingame also opposed, saying she didn’t want to increase the tax rate unless the board reinstated bus service for all students. In June, the board unanimously approved reducing bus service as part of budget cuts.

Plans to construct a six-lane underpass extend- ing Greenhouse Road from Mound Road to Skinner Road across Hwy. 290 have been delayed, Harris County Precinct 3 o cials conrmed. Preliminary engineering work began in 2019, and Community Impact previously reported a construction contract was set to be awarded this August.

Because illicit massage businesses are a common venue for human tra cking, TDLR o cials perform unscheduled inspections at least once every two to four years. In late May, Hsin Wei Chen was ordered to temporarily close Foot Re exology Star—the rst business aected by HB 3579. He later had eight massage business licenses revoked; three were in Cy-Fair, according to a June 24 news release. “For too long, human tra ckers have been able to hide what they’ve been doing in massage establishments. But now, with this law in place, we will work with our local law enforcement partners to take the ght to these tra ckers,” Brian E. Francis, the TDLR’s interim executive director at the time, said in the release. After Chen failed to comply with the emergency order, the TDLR obtained a permanent injunction, per a Sept. 19 news release. He can no longer own, operate, manage or work in massage establishments in Texas. In July, Changjiang Zhong, owner of Gen Spa in Cy-Fair, agreed to a permanent license revocation for two businesses licensed there. In September, Yu Sheng Chen agreed to close 10 establishments, including D & B Foot Massage in Cy-Fair. Per the TDLR, potential signs of tra cking in these cases included:

What the experts say
Human tra cking reports in the Houston area
Several Houston-area nonprots have programs dedicated to supporting human tra cking survivors. Michelle Temofonte, clinical director at Shield Bearer Counseling Centers based in Cy-Fair, said the organization had 12,097 individuals seek counseling services due to human tra cking trauma in 2023. While experts said psychological healing is an imperative part of human tra cking survivors’ recovery process, other resources organizations provide include safe housing, education, economic empowerment courses, a supportive community and transportation. The Houston Area Women’s Center has served more than 86 human tra cking survivors in 2024 as of Sept. 12, o cials said. Redeemed Ministries, based in the north Houston area, has helped more than 150 women escape human tra cking since 2005, Executive Director Bobby Mark said. “It is one of the easiest crimes for criminals to

Human tra cking resources
Mark said human tra cking perpetrators target vulnerable individuals such as children who have endured abusive households, are in foster care or live in poverty. “We’ve actually had residents whose parents were their tra ckers when they were as young as 4 years old, trading them to pay the rent on the apartment,” Mark said. Leticia Manzano, manager of sexual violence services at the Houston Area Women’s Center, said human tra cking often occurs in establishments that act as fronts for typical businesses such as massage spas, bars and modeling agencies. “I often think of an immigrant client that I serve who someone told her, ‘This place is hiring,’ and so she started o just cleaning this spa, and then eventually she was forced to give a client a massage,” Manzano said. Jorge Alaniz, a sergeant with the Harris County Sheri’s O ce, said their biggest human tra ck- ing cases often involve young girls in foster care
According to the TDLR, signs of human tracking among employees working at businesses include: • Visible injuries such as bruises, redness or swelling • Gang signs, tattoos, new high-end clothing • Sexually provocative clothing inappropriate for weather or situation • Employees are not allowed or are unable to speak for themselves or make their own decisions • Employees are fearful of authorities • Third-party control of identity documents • Claim of boyfriend or girlfriend relationship with an older individual How to report human tracking • National Human Traf icking Hotline: www.humantrafickinghotline.org/ report-traficking

who are manipulated into prostitution. “Human tra cking is not a victimless crime,” Alaniz said. “People think that because it’s two adults consenting to sex that no one’s really being hurt, and that’s a big misconception because they don’t understand that people are being forced through threats and coercion.” Alaniz also said human tra cking is typically seen in businesses such as massage parlors, nail salons, cantinas and among people who are forced to sell ¡owers on the side of the road.

Family business makes old things new at Colonial Brass Mark Marz grew up working at his father’s metal restoration business and took ownership at age 18.

A family a air Nearly half of the sta of 12 is related, but Marz said all his employees are treated like family. When his previous location was destroyed by a re in 2023, he said he kept his team on the payroll until they could reopen seven months later. “They’re not just employees; they’re artisans.

Marz said his business is one of the only ones of its kind left in the region. Most items are returned to clients within four to six weeks, but the sta fast-tracks services for churches that meet weekly and oers same-day door hardware restoration.
