Faulk Barchus is pleased to announce its success in a winning argument against the City of Houston Wednesday establishing jurisdiction that our clients are not "benefitted properties", and therefore do not have to pay the drainage fees and charges, under the recently enacted City of Houston Ordinance. The clients' properties drainage does not flow through City of Houston maintained drainage infrastructure, but rather to Harris County Flood Control District, Special Municipal Utility District, and Harris County owned and operated drainage, then through the bayous and ultimately drains into the Houston Ship Channel or Clear Lake and into the Gulf of Mexico. The City of Houston and its attorneys have already filed a notice of appeal. Faulk Barchus attorneys maintained that the drainage fee is supposed to be relative to the City providing drainage service, and not a drainage tax. Therefore, if the City does not provide drainage services to your property, you should not have to pay a drainage fee. The Attached Flowchart was created by Faulk Barchus attorneys as a visual aid in explaining the complex legal concepts involved.

Can you please let me know if there is something that you can do for us? We have property on the East Side of Houston. What little drainage that we do have already flows into Greens Bayou. I have been going round and round with the City about this and I really do not want to pay this not only because of the amount that they are requesting from us but also the service that they do not provide for us. 9/10/2013 05:30:59 am

When the man I love broke my heart, I felt something did left me because I wasn't myself anymore. I had gone to several places for help and counseling yet, I got no results. Until I found [email protected] and I was introduced to Dr Muna by text +2347035449257. I explained my marriage issues with Dr Muna. I’m glad I trusted him by doing all he requested. He performed a spiritual cleansing to banish negative energies that was battling against the joy in my home and then casted a love spell. After 72 hours, the man I was missing began to call and after our conversation, he texted how much he badly misses me too. He apologized for leaving me in the dark and we got back together again.

I cannot identify myself as an "HIV Survivor" because I'm not surviving. I have conquered the battle of HIV/AIDS with natural alternatives. I have broken down the walls of stigma, I have fought against discrimination, I have risen above rejections and criticisms. It has been 12 years of Victory, right after under the supervision of Doctor Muna. If I can find cure, comfort and healing with Doctor Muna's natural herbal products, anyone with chronic disease or viral infections can get cure too. [email protected] deserves to be spread all over for the general public, Whatsapp +2347035449257
