So okay— H-Town on the wire—no limits, no zoning, no excuses. Let's talk about what's actually moving through our city.
### Your city hall is still wrestling with homelessness
Wait wait wait, let me back up— the big news from our City Hall beat this week, the thing that’s really sticking with me, is how much energy is going into the ongoing conversation about homelessness. Houston Landing, a local news powerhouse, just ran a piece on Thursday, May 15th, highlighting Scot More, an advocate who’s doing critical work at Houston’s Homeless Court.
This isn't some abstract concept, y'all. This is about people navigating our city, often in plain sight near Buffalo Bayou Park or under the freeway overpasses. The Homeless Court is designed to help individuals clear minor citations that often become roadblocks to housing or employment. It’s a direct intervention.
* Scot More is addressing homelessness through legal advocacy.
* The article "Who are HOU?" ran on Thursday, May 15, 2025.
* This initiative targets minor citations.
You know what the wildest part is? This kind of focused, boots-on-the-ground work is exactly what Houston needs. We’re a city built on pulling ourselves up, but sometimes you need a hand, and the court system can be a maze. It’s a reminder that even in a city as sprawling and diverse as ours, where we're building up from EaDo to the Heights, there are still fundamental human needs that require our attention. Keep an eye on how these programs evolve, because it directly impacts the fabric of our neighborhoods.
