Another over reach by the City of Houston on our rights as property owners.

I am opposed to my home being designated as located in a park.

Houston Historic designation for the Heights was supposed to go into a vote which never happened. It was just enacted. The Historic "committee" is not elected but hired and appointed with a rapid turnaround.

Local Politics are out of control. If we the homeowners don't step up to stop these bills no one else will! This bill will effect all Heights residents, please don't say this bill does not apply to me. I oppose this bill!

As a resident of Heights South Historic District I oppose these bills and feel it is just another over reach and disregard for our property rights. Please do not pass these bills.

Having lived in the Houston Heights for over 40 years, invested years of time in community involvement and millions of dollars into our neighborhood in restoring multiple properties that have received HHA community improvement recognition, I strongly oppose these bills. Property owner's rights were unfairly revoked when the current Historical Preservation mandate was unfairly imposed. These bills simply worsen the situation by giving the COH a blank check to control "your" property.

I am a resident of Heights South Historic District. I, owner of a remodeling company located in the district, am currently repurposing a 100 year-old former drug store into my personal family home. I am committed to sensible Historic Preservation. I'm a former 8-year member of the Houston Archaeological & Historical Commission. I oppose these bills. As a property owner who signed the petition to establish the district, I and many others did so based on the language of the petition AND what we were told verbally. The City of Houston unilaterally changed the terms after the petitions were signed and districts established. This is yet another violation of the agreement the homeowners like myself made with the City.

Regulating our homes as a park is ridiculous. Please do not let this happen

I am tired of my house falling apart and not being able to renovate it because of the City oh Houston’s Historic district regulations.
