SUMMARY: Last week, Dallas City Council members postponed votes on two significant issues. One vote related to the decriminalization of small amounts of marijuana; supporters gathered 50,000 signatures, potentially qualifying it for the ballot. Another proposal, aiming to ban horse-drawn carriages due to concerns about horse health and safety, was sent back to committee. The ban would influence only one permitted business, prompting discussion on its necessity. Despite the delays, activism in the community continues to influence council decisions.

SUMMARY: The Austin Fire Department responded to a house fire near U.S. Highway 183 in south Austin on Saturday. No injuries were reported. The fire started in a garage in the 4300 block of south U.S. 183 at around 5:15 p.m. and extended to part of the house. Crews battled the blaze and had it under control by shortly before 6 p.m. All residents were able to evacuate safely. As a result, southbound U.S. 183 has one lane open, and drivers should expect delays or use alternate routes. The AFD remained on the scene to check for any “hot spots.”
