One in five new homes permitted in Houston in the year after #Harvey is in a floodplain, some on prairie developed for the first time after the storm.
About 260 plats also were approved in floodplains during the same period, creating hundreds of new parcels in flood-prone areas.

#Harvey flooded 204,000 homes+apartments in #HarrisCounty. Many are back on the rental market.
In #Texas, landlords don't have to tell tenants about a unit's flood history.
This is wrong, and #Houston Council Members must fix this, the Ed Board writes.
