  • Many in Puerto Rico still under tarps as storm threat looms

    Jun 21, 2018

    SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Hurricane Maria ripped away part of the steel roof from Carmen Lidia Torres Mercado's home in the Puerto Rican capital.

  • Klein ISD may consider mass job cuts after voters reject tax hike

    Jun 21, 2018

    As school districts work to finalize their budgets ahead of the 2018-2019 fiscal year, Klein ISD officials now must figure out how to cut an additional $22.2 million in spending after voters on Saturday rejected a plan to raise property taxes. Klein ISD had proposed raising it's maintenance and operations tax rate from $1.04 per $100 assessed value to $1.13. For a home valued at $200,000 with a $25,000 state homestead exemption, the tax increase would have amounted to about $13.13 more each month. https://www.chron.com/news/...
