Hello, Round Rock! Like many of you, the Patch staff will be taking some time off to enjoy the holiday this weekend. Your next newsletter will be in your inbox on Tuesday morning. Now, here's everything you need to know about what's going on in town today.

First, today's weather:

A t-storm around in the p.m. High: 98 Low: 78.

📢 I’m looking for business owners and marketers in Round Rock who want to build awareness, connect with customers and increase sales.

I have a limited number of sponsorships available to introduce our Round Rock Daily readers to local businesses they need to know about. If that’s you, then I invite you to learn more and secure your spot now.

Here are the top four stories today in Round Rock:

1. Round Rock pharmaceutical company Benuvia Therapeutics owes $543,822.98 in delinquent taxes from the 2021 financial year. The drug developer and manufacturer of pharmaceutical cannabinoids and psychedelics is number one on the list of top ten delinquent taxpayers in Williamson County. Williamson County sent KXAN a list of accounts that owe the most in taxes and have made no payments or arrangements to make payments. (KXAN)
