CenterPoint open houses: Energy provider plans to inform public about its improvement efforts during community meetings [Video]

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — CenterPoint Energy said it plans to inform people about its improvement efforts by hosting more than a dozen community open houses starting this weekend.

However, some of the neighborhoods that went the longest without power after Hurricane Beryl are areas that don’t appear to have an open house scheduled.

ABC13’s Courtney Carpenter spoke with some residents in the Fifth Ward, asking, “What’s your message to them, or what would you want to ask them?”

“Do better,” longtime Fifth Ward resident Ruby Lincoln responded.

Between Saturday, Aug. 17, and Sept. 28, CenterPoint is hosting 16 community open houses.

According to ABC13’s news partners at the Houston Chronicle, during these meetings, more will be shared about the company’s resiliency plan, and people will be able to ask questions and provide feedback.
