    $25,000,000 I guarantee you the artists are not getting that fee.
  • @bruh_hahaha
    Our property tax bills have skyrocketed in the past few years, they need to invest that money in our infrastructure!

    DFW resident here. I think that by now many of you Houstonians have reached the breaking point and are preparing to move to Dallas or San Antonio. I certainly don't blame you for doing so. Years ago, I wanted to move to Houston and now I'm so glad I never did. Prayers go out to y'all in Houston. Stay strong; you'll get through this.

    So, you're talking about 16 years since the last catastrophic storm hit. It looks like the trees and vegetation around wires, poles and transformers have continued to grow with no trimming or maintenance. How sad that is, and illegal for CenterPoint...
  • @k.ferguson9933
    Lost all my food due hurricane beryl and power went out! I applied for food assistance with FEMA denied, Homeowners Insurance denied, HHS was told to call 211, which is SNAP, which I don't qualify denied...smh.
  • @tag7592
    Too much BS and politicking!
  • @Knaeben
    It's the state government that's the problem, not the city government.
  • @houstongigs
    Got power after 7 days.... worse than the winter storm. So I really don't know what they have "improved" since the last several times the grid has failed 😅
  • @lisaroyle1966
    HLP back in the day maintained the tress and vegetation along the power lines, why can't Centerpoint do the same?
  • Welfare of the people, it’s stated within the U.S. Constitution.
  • I’ve been here in Houston less than 2 years and my power goes out constantly. For 4 days after the tornadoes from Alberto and 3 days after Beryl. Suffocating heat. I’m done here.
  • @susyqperez321
    EXACTLY THE GOVERNOR /GOVERNMENT OF TEXAS MUST BE RESPONSIBLE, WE GIVE HIM TOO MUCH OPPORTUNITIES WE PUT HIM IN POWER MANY TIMES AND HE IS FAILING US ALL THIS TIME, THE LAST TIME WHEN THE FREEZE HE SAYS HE WAS GOING TO DO SOMETHING ,WASN'T GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN, BUT HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING, AND NOW HE IS BLAMING OTHERS!!?, WE DESERVE BETTER, WE MUST VOTE HIM OUT, WE ARE TIRED OF THE SAME EXCUSES!!
  • @Daylight-nu3rt
    Bring back HL&P and Entex and get rid of Centerpointless. At least it was local.
  • @_944audiophile
    Notice GramMa and the other attentive City Council members,,, NOT
  • @regmatt
    people don’t move to houston due to bigger homes , if there is no electricity u have to spend money , if the winter comes another disaster..
