HOUSTON COMMUTER DELAYS The average commuter spent 27 fewer hours delayed in Houston-area traffic in 2020 than in 2019.

A study released by the Texas A&M Transportation Institute showed commuters in the Houston area saw decreases to their travel time, costs and stress levels in 2020. When com- pared nationally, however, Houston commuters still dealt with more traffic challenges than other U.S. cities. The TTI released its 2021 Urban Mobility Report on June 29, evaluating the 2020 traffic patterns of 494 cities across the U.S. and focusing on 101 urban areas. One of the urban areas was the Greater Houston area, which comprises Harris County and parts of Fort Bend, Brazoria, Waller, Montgom- ery, Chambers, Liberty and Galveston counties, TTI Senior Research Scientist David Schrank said. According to the national report, Houston ranked third in the number of hours each driver was delayed on the road, second when it came to extra fuel wasted by traffic congestion and fifth in annual congestion costs per driver in 2020. All rankings are increases from 2019. “This was the year where you saw different cities change dramatically,” Schrank said. However, when comparing Hous- ton’s 2020 traffic data to its own from 2019, the delays and congestion costs improved. Drivers traveled fewer hours in 2020 than the year before— from 76 annual hours of delay per commuter in 2019 to 46 hours in 2020. Annual congestion cost—which is a value of time and fuel spent in delays— also dropped from $1,635 per com- muter in 2019 to $1,097 per commuter in 2020, according to the report. “I think Houston’s very diverse economy shows up [in the rankings],”

So as things change across the nation, I think the Houston area isn’t as dramatically affected by any one change because of diversity.” Pandemic effects Other factors that played into Houston rising in the national rankings for traffic-related issues were stricter and longer lockdown restrictions put in place by other states that kept drivers off the road in cities such as Los Angeles and Seattle, Schrank said. Additionally, continued transpor- tation activity in the Port of Houston as well as other industries such as petroleum during the pandemic were also players in keeping Houston’s roads congested with traffic. Houston ranked fourth in the nation in both hours of delay truck drivers saw and annual truck congestion

cost, which is not only explained by the need to transport goods from those industries, but also the goods needed to reach private residences and businesses, Schrank said. Despite the national rankings, Schrank said Houston has done a good job handling traffic-reducing solutions by diversifying its trans- portation options, which include freeways, high-occupancy vehicle lanes, and public transportation such as the Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County’s bus routes and METRORail. “Houston is doing some of the things we have been recommending for decades,” Schrank said. As COVID-19 restrictions continue to lift, traffic issues are expected to rise. How long it takes to reach 2019 levels and surpass them, however, TTI officials are unsure. Factors such as teleworking, the economy and tourism will play a role, Schrank said.

News from the Lake Houston area NEWS BRIEFS Humble City Council unanimously increases property tax rate for FY 2021

BY HANNAH ZEDAKER

Appraisal District; city officials have since received the final certified tax rolls and amended the proposed tax rate for FY 2021-22 accordingly. According to city documents, while the new tax rate is greater than the no-new-revenue tax rate and the voter-approval tax rate, it is not greater than the de minimis rate—a tax rate calculation designed to give smaller taxing units, including cities with a population of less than 30,000, some relief from the 3.5% voter-approval rate, according to the Texas comptroller’s website. According to American Community Survey’s 2019 five-year estimates, the median home value in the city of Humble was $122,900. Based on this figure, a typical homeowner in Humble can expect to pay about $6 more in taxes in FY 2021-22 than

RAISING RATES The city of Humble has raised its property tax rate each year for the past five consecutive years.

Humble residents can expect an increase in their property tax rate for fiscal year 2021-22 following a public hearing and unanimous approval of the elevated tax rate by the Humble City Council on Sept. 9. The approved FY 2021-22 tax rate of $0.263508 is up from the rate of $0.258693 in FY 2020-21. According to City Manager Jason Stuebe, this is an effective increase of 9.31%, meaning the amount of the total taxes collected is 9.31% higher than the previous fiscal year. While city officials had proposed a tax rate of $0.262115 during the FY 2021-22 budget workshop Aug. 17, Stuebe said that proposed tax rate was based on estimates provided by the Harris County

the country for his success with growing jobs and attracting capital investments to his community,” Armstrong said in a statement. “Over the years, we’ve watched him grow the council in Katy from the early phases to a powerhouse economic development organization.” LaCour will be replacing former economic development President Mark Mitchell, who stepped down from the position in June after four years, as previously reported by Community Impact Newspaper . In the interim, Mitchell will continue working on economic development initiatives with Part- nership Lake Houston on a contract basis until LaCour takes over Nov. 1, the release states.

Based on the 2020 census, each Harris County precinct should have 1.18 million residents. Redrawing boundaries

As Harris County’s population has grown 15.6% in the past 10 years, county commissioners convened Aug. 31 to review the process of redistricting and hear feedback from residents. When the maps were last redrawn in 2011, each precinct had slightly more than 1 million residents; the county’s overall population was about 4.1 million based on the 2010 census. Matt Angle, the county’s mapping consultant, said at the Aug. 31 meeting that based on the 2020 census, each precinct should have 1.18 million residents. The U.S. Constitution prohibits a deviation of more than 10% from that target number.

COMPRESSING THE TAX RATE Humble ISD has lowered its property tax rate each year since 2019 when House Bill 3 went into effect, requiring school districts statewide to compress their tax rates.

year, board President Martina Dixon was required to say that the new tax rate effectively represents a 2.8% increase over last year’s rate. However, Position 2 trustee Robert Scarfo stressed at the meeting that this year’s rate is lower than last fiscal year’s rate. “Take a deeper look, because your effective rate is going to be lower than it was last year,” Scarfo said, noting last year’s rate of $1.384. The average home value within the district rose by roughly $15,500 year over year, meaning the district will take in an average of $99 more in taxes per household. As property values vary, however, some homeowners might not see an increase.

The Humble ISD board of trustees at a Sept. 14 meeting unanimously approved a fiscal year 2021-22 tax rate of $1.3389 per $100 valuation. The total tax rate includes a maintenance and operations rate of $0.9889 per $100 valuation and a debt services rate of $0.35 per $100 valuation.

What issues do you think need to be addressed in NCISD’s oerings?

Candidate did not respond to requests for comment

New Caney ISD is actively working to increase technology oerings to its students. The career and technology education (CATE) program oers certi- cations and job skills to assist students who are not college bound. And rightly so. Not every student would benet from college-level education. I’m excited to see the CATE program grow with more programs to benet our students.

Our current district ratings do not reect the great work that is happening in our schools. [District ocials] need to acknowledge our current standings and come up with a plan to make our academic ratings better. I also feel that we need to implement a system of supports for students who are in danger of falling through the cracks. I would recom- mend [district ocials] create a proactive process that evaluates all of our kids to provide them the individual supports they need to be successful in NCISD.

What part(s) of NCISD’s budget is overfunded/underfunded?

Candidate did not respond to requests for comment

We are working on increasing safety in our district by putting more school safe- ty ocers on campuses. The balanced budget is an important goal for our district, and much thought and planning goes into deciding which programs would most benet the students.

The district’s budget is a great reection of the district’s priorities. The majority of the district’s budget goes directly to investing in our hard-working teachers and dedicat- ed campus support sta that provide our children the great education they deserve. If elected, I would continue to support and advocate for our classrooms being the top priority in the district’s budget.

What part(s) of NCISD’s budget is overfunded/ underfunded?

Occupation: gas control manager Relevant experience: Career experience with complex budgeting, long-term phase-based projects, and growth projections DENNIS ALTERS

Due to COVID[-19], I believe there is a decit in the identication of students with disabilities as well as students with learning di- culties. The [Response to Intervention] program needs additional support in the younger grades to help with getting students in the correct programs. I recommend adding additional support to the in- tervention programs. This would allow an additional level of support to the general education teachers.

New Caney ISD has consistently had a balanced budget. While that is a great approach to handling the budget for the district, it can also lead to excessive spending. I think as the district grows and new programs are brought in, there will always be ways to re-evaluate and adjust the budget.

BUSINESS FEATURE CupcakeQuilts

BY EMILY LINCKE

Humble-area fabric store keeps customers inspired, crafting during coronavirus pandemic N owadays, people can learn almost any skill using the internet, which is one of in 2015. Johnson said the business name Cupcake Quilts was inspired by her other love: baking. Johnson’s Humble and Spring

the reasons customers continue to visit local fabric store Cupcake Quilts, owner Stacie Johnson said. To learn how to sew a garment or construct a quilt, crafters simply need to buy the supplies and connect to Wi-Fi. “People have this misconception that it’s a lost art,” Johnson said. “I think part of that comes from not every school district providing it.” Customers stop by Johnson’s store to get tips or inspiration for projects they have started at home. During the last year, Johnson said the hot item everyone wanted to learn how to make was reusable face masks due to the ongoing coronavi- rus pandemic. The pandemic fueled interest in craft hobbies across the country as many sat at home, feeling anxious and unproductive. In 2020, there were 10 million-12 million quilters in North America with 12% more new quilters popping up compared to 2019, according to Craft Industry Alliance, a trade association for craft industry professionals. Johnson said she learned to sew, embroider and cross stitch from her grandmother, perfecting her talents in a sixth-grade sewing class. Her passion for the craft led her to open an online quilt store, followed a couple of years later by a brick-and- mortar store in Old Town Spring

locations opened in 2017 and 2020, respectively. The stores sell fabric, thread, patterns and quilting sup- plies while also hosting classes for all skill levels. Cupcake Quilts also oers sewing machine maintenance for customers, including ve local school districts. These days, Johnson’s focus has been on helping her community. Cupcake Quilts has worked with local animal rescues, Texas Chil- dren’s Hospital, and nonprots supporting survivors of abuse and victims of Hurricane Harvey. Johnson said she hopes to provide quilts to Afghanistan refugees in the near future. “Quilters, as a general rule of thumb, are very giving people,” Johnson said. “If you ask most quilters, they’ve given away more quilts than they’ve kept.” With all the time she puts into her business, Johnson said she does not have as much time for personal projects as she used to. “I have 11 kids, and I keep saying I’m gonna make each one of them a quilt,” she said. “I’ve gotten one done.” However, Johnson said she has never lost sight of her original passion for quilting and hopes to begin making a quilt for her rst grandchild soon.

Cupcake Quilts owner Stacie Johnson learned to sew and quilt from her grandmother and from a sixth-grade sewing class, which inspired her to open her own quilting fabric store.
