Cy-Fair Fire Department to receive 13 red light sauna therapy units

Harris County Emergency Services District No. 9 fire stations will receive red light sauna therapy units and cold plunges for all 13 stations in the district after receiving a donation from the Cy-Fair Women's Club.

The details: The Cy-Fair Women’s Club, CWC, presented the Cy-Fair Professional Firefighters Charitable Fund $10,000 through its annual Major Project Funding, MPF, for the saunas and cold plunges on April 16 at the ESD 9 meeting.

As the Cy-Fair community continues to grow, Fillmore said organizations such as the CWC show that there is still support for each other.

“Strong communities don’t happen by accident; they are built through partnership.” CWC member Kim De Lorenzo said at the ESD 9 meeting. “One of the most critical partnerships a community has is with the men and women who protect it.”

Texans can purchase emergency supplies tax-free April 25-27

Texans are expected to save millions in sales taxes on emergency supplies—everything from tarps to generators—during an annual tax holiday April 25-27.

How it works: The sales tax holiday begins at 12:01 a.m. April 24 and lasts until midnight April 27.

Texans are expected to save about $2.4 million in state and local taxes, according to the comptroller’s office. Last year, Texans saved about $2.3 million, agency spokesperson Kevin Lyons said.

According to the comptroller’s office, items qualify for the tax exemption if they are priced at:

  • Less than $75 for items including household batteries, fuel containers, flashlights, smoke detectors, tarps and first aid kits

  • Less than $300 for hurricane shutters and emergency ladders

  • Less than $3,000 for portable generators
