Frontage Road Work Begins Today on I 10 Reconstruction
A $21 million five month project starts today to reconstruct and reconfigure I 10 frontage roads from Thompson to John Martin roads. TXDOT area engineer Quincy Allen says the work aims to make frontage roads one way to improve safety. The plan also eliminates four buttonhook entrance ramps near Ward Road, drawing opposition from McNair residents who fear reduced access and more congestion at nearby truck stops.

Anahuac council waives December water bill after meter dispute
Swopes and her mother faced water bills jumping from 17 to 662 dollars after a garden tap and new meter were installed. City officials argued the meter read correctly and the department would not refund, but council waived 443.10 dollars and considered further refund steps while Swopes aims to reclaim 994.17 dollars already paid. A drought and possible garden-leak theory were cited, and the resident plans to seek recourse for medical needs linked to the high charges.
