HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH
FROM KIM: With local elections only a few weeks away, voters across the Lake Houston- area will have the opportunity to vote for their candidates of choice running for the Humble ISD board of trustees and Humble City Council. Voters residing within New Caney ISD boundaries will also have the chance to vote for or against two propositions comprising the district’s $695 million bond. To learn more about each of these local candidates, as well as NCISD’s bond, see our Voter Guide, which begins on Page 10. Kim Giannetti, GENERAL MANAGER
FROM HANNAH: Nearly eight years after its inception, construction began on the long- awaited Northpark Drive overpass project in April and is expected to continue for the next 2.5 years. While the project aims to improve safety and relieve trac congestion along the corridor, ocials are concerned about the many local businesses that line Northpark Drive and may be negatively impacted during construction. To learn more about this project and what commuters and residents can expect in the coming months, see our front-page story, which continues on Page 19. Hannah Brol, EDITOR
