In this Sept. 20, 2017 photo, Houston resident Bob Cantrell sits in his garage surrounded by the few pieces of furniture and personal items he was able to salvage from flooding due to Tropical Storm Harvey. Cantrell, whose home took in 29 inches of water, said he is against a proposal by Houston to raise property taxes to help pay for mounting expenses from the storm. Cantrell called the proposal a "ridiculous idea" and said "it's like kicking you when you're down on the ground." The Houston City Council is set to vote next month on the tax hike.
