Corpus Christi is debating a weird new 'zero-tolerance' policy on space-based euthanasia. It sounds like sci-fi, but the city is actually trying to get ahead of potential legal headaches before they happen.
Sidewalk Maintenance Pilot
Get ready for a new bridge to North Padre Island! This project aims to slash traffic jams and make getting to the island a breeze. It's a big step for Corpus Christi's infrastructure.
