· KRGV (NBC 5)
A coffee shop owner in Weslaco, Mina Reyes, reports significant customer loss due to road construction on Sugarcane Drive. Reyes claims sales have dropped by 80 to 90 percent since the project began two weeks ago, forcing her to cancel cultural events. She was unaware of the construction until she arrived at work, having not received any prior notification from the city. The city acknowledges that businesses were not properly informed about the $520,000 street improvement project, which started on July 6. City officials are now working to enhance their notification processes for future projects.
