Baytown weighs land rules amid rapid growth and Pearland contrast
City planning officials discuss Unified Land Development Code as Baytown explores faster approvals after developers abandon projects. Pearland, with 2001 population around 61,000, expects 2006 growth beyond 70,000, and uses two-stage plat approval with council final sign off. Friendswood differs with council final approval and county recording. Sewer capacity and aging pipes complicate Baytown expansion.

FDA finds drug firms largely skip listing studies online
The FDA says the drug industry largely ignores a 2002 guideline to register thousands of medical studies on ClinicalTrials.gov. Internal 2002 data show 48 percent of industry funded cancer therapy studies were listed, versus over 90 percent of National Cancer Institute funded studies. The agency expects a full review by year end but warns compliance remains weak.
