Flood warnings persist for the Frio and Nueces River basins, with major flooding expected through the week—Frio River at Tilden rising toward flood stage, and Nueces at Cotulla could crest near 23 feet by Friday. Meanwhile, in Helotes, the mayor is calling on residents to voice concerns at city council meetings after a landmark heritage oak tree was removed by 7 Brew, a company that followed all regulations. Though the mayor acknowledges the emotional impact and community outrage, he emphasizes legal compliance and urges residents to engage directly with property owners and local government. He also criticizes the city’s push for more development, arguing Helotes doesn’t need more businesses—and that its success should mean lower property taxes for residents. While rivers remain a threat downstream, the real conversation in Helotes is about community voice and the future of local growth.
