Today's riddle: What has a cap but no head? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Development updates, Lammes Candies: Read 6 trending stories in the Austin area (communityimpact.com) — Round Rock residents should know that City Council has approved alcohol sales at The District, a major upcoming mixed-use development located near the IDEA Round Rock Tech campus. The decision grants a sitewide variance from the usual 300-foot school distance rule, while other trending stories highlight new internet service in Georgetown, Lammes Candies' return, and regional development and tax changes.
• Here's How Much Money People Are Paying For A Haircut Across The U.S. (newsbreak.com) — Urban Betty's Round Rock location gets a national shout-out for its $67 base haircut price and transparent service fees that help fund employee benefits and training. The piece compares prices and philosophies from salons nationwide, but Round Rock residents can see exactly how their local salon stacks up and why its owner says the fee structure reflects real investment in staff and sustainability.
• Court orders Galveston ISD to display Ten Commandments posters in classrooms (crossroadstoday.com) — Round Rock ISD is no longer being sued by the Texas attorney general over Ten Commandments posters, but it remains central to a broader legal fight about the law's constitutionality. A Galveston judge has ordered only Galveston ISD to display the posters for now, while appeals and a possible U.S. Supreme Court review could eventually clarify what Round Rock schools must do.
