Steve Spillette CDS Community Development Strategies Every year CDS produces a land use and demographic profile for The Energy Corridor District—a business district on Houston’s west side. Each edition includes a thorough land use and demographic profile as well as projections for the future. For the 2017 edition CDS provided multiple future projections, accounting for a new land use trend that is gaining popularity in Houston and other parts of the country: place-oriented and mixed-use development.

As December is to Christmas, the month of May is to auto racing. May is when the countdown begins in earnest toward the Memorial Day weekend and three of the most historic and popular events in the world of auto racing, NASCAR’s World 600, Formula 1’s Monaco Grand Prix, and, especially, the Indianapolis 500. 2016 will mark the 100th running of the 500-mile race at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The Speedway itself opened in 1909 and hosted the inaugural Indianapolis 500 in 1911. As one would expect from a facility that first opened during the Taft administration, the Speedway has been in a near constant state of maintenance, expansion, and upgrade over the years. In what had become rather unique in American professional sports, the Speedway had done all of this without ever using government or taxpayer assistance. That changed in 2013, when the Speedway petitioned the State to be made a special taxing district.
