HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM PAPAR: If you didn’t know, our coverage area is Pearland, Friendswood and parts of Manvel. Though Friendswood has maintained its population since its boom in the ‘80s and ‘90s, the Pearland area has been in fast-growth mode for the last 20 years, though the pace has slowed as the available open land in the area gets developed. Manvel considers itself the city on the rise with incoming master-planned communities, commercial development and additional schools being built for the population increases there. Our front-page story this month covers our neighbor just to the south and where their community is headed. Papar Faircloth, GENERAL MANAGER
