📰 News we're reading
• ‘I had a bad day': Conroe judge releases statement after latest DWI arrest (click2houston.com) — Conroe’s municipal judge, William Waggoner, has issued a lengthy statement after his recent DWI-related arrest, disputing key details in the police affidavit and calling the case politically motivated. He acknowledges poor judgment but denies multiple DWI convictions, while city officials stress that no one is above the law and note he remains on the bench and on the ballot. 
• Firefighters sue Conroe after city rejected a collective bargaining petition for the May ballot (houstonchronicle.com) — Conroe firefighters have sued the city, claiming officials wrongly rejected their voter petition to put collective bargaining on the May ballot, despite thousands of signatures from local residents. City staff say they can’t verify the required voter list from the last general election, while the union insists state data proves they met the threshold and wants a judge to force the city to process the petition.
• Montgomery County Habitat for Humanity begins work on Magnolia's Marble Creek community (houstonchronicle.com) — Habitat for Humanity of Montgomery County is expanding its affordable housing work from Conroe’s Cedar Creek community to a new 81-acre Marble Creek neighborhood in Magnolia, backed by a major multi-year donation. With infrastructure already in place and first home builds planned for spring, the project aims to support local workforce families, including Magnolia ISD staff, while complementing existing efforts in Conroe.
