HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM PAPAR: If you’ve been a resident of Pearland for some time, you know there have been some water billing issues. Since discovering the problem, nding the best resolution for both the city and residents has come with its fair share of frustrations on both sides. City ocials said they believe they found the solution, which we share in our front- page story this month. Papar Faircloth, GENERAL MANAGER

FROM JAKE: This summer has been particularly hot and dry, forcing cities and counties to implement drought plans. While the summer is normally hurricane season and full of coastal storms, this year has been similar to the drought conditions of 2011. Read our front-page story to learn more about the unusual weather and how local governments have responded. Jake Magee, SENIOR EDITOR

Our purpose is to be a light for our readers, customers, partners and each other.
