This is absolutely heartbreaking news. I had the honor of getting to meet Jason and his lovely family many times. Jason was such a great person. He will be missed. The whole Knox family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
The
@houstonpolice

My thoughts, condolences, and prayers are with CM Knox, Officer Jason’s wife, and their family at this time.
I ask our city to pray, uplift, and bring comfort to them during this time.

You know what makes a neighborhood very walkable? One that isn’t under water every time it rains. I will support the ordinance because I think the people in the pilot areas generally want this, but any redevelopment ordinance in District A needs to also address flooding!
Houston has a long-sought plan to make the city more walkable, easing its heavy reliance on cars.
-Bring buildings closer to the street
-Wider sidewalks
-Put parking lots behind or next to buildings, not in front of them
-Build around transit
