Promoting a Different Sort of Mixed Use in Friendswood

   

Among yesterday’s election results: Victory for Propositions 1 and 2 in Friendswood. That means grocery, wine, and convenience stores will be able to sell wine and beer, and restaurants will be able to serve wine, beer, and mixed drinks in the city’s downtown. “Both propositions allow alcohol sales in a corridor along FM 518 between FM 528 and FM 2351. The city, founded by Quakers, banned alcohol sales in April 1963, the year Friendswood was incorporated.” [Galveston County Daily News]

    Good news. Friendswood was seeing all the tax revenue go to Pearland and League City. They have a lot of residents that will gladly stay in town for a drink.
