HOUSTON — On Wednesday, Houston Public Works posted a photo on their social media warning residents about fake “no parking" signs circulating in an Alief neighborhood.
Now, the city says the notices are real, but the information posted on the flyers is wrong.
Public Works reached out to the KHOU 11 News with the update just before 11 a.m. Thursday. They said a contractor they hired to do work along Newbrook Drive took it upon themselves to distribute the notices without the city's approval, because of speed humps that are going in next week.
The city said the information in the flyer was not approved by them and is wrong. They are working to post the correct details, however as of 11:50 a.m. on Thursday, the tweet from Wednesday was still on the Houston Public Works Twitter account.
