Big changes are coming to downtown Houston, thanks to a Senate bill that is anticipated to bring around $2 billion to the area.
Starting in September, Senator Whitmire says Houston First will be able to collect the sales tax from three miles in every direction from the George R. Brown Convention Center. The additional revenue will help grow and revitalize the area.
Whitmire says it’s important to be competitive with other states and cities, like Dallas, which is building a new convention center.
