Chlorine ‘burnout’ scheduled for Bowie water system

City of Bowie residents may notice some minor odor and taste issues with their water as the water treatment system changes the disinfectant during the next 28 days.
Ramon Johnson, public works director, said from June 22 to July 20 the city staff will be conducting what is called a “chlorine burnout.”
He explained the plant uses a combination of ammonia and chlorine in the water system called chloramines. However, over time ammonia builds up in the system and the plant must change over to straight chlorine for 28 days to clear it.

Nocona City Council approves NEDC requests

The Nocona City Council approved a trio of Nocona Economic Development Corporation requests and considered infrastructure work questioned by a city council.
Councilors met on June 10. Two of the NEDC requests had already been presented with the timeclock for comment started. With that time limit over, the requests were finalized.
The Type A and B Boards will spend $19,225 at the Indian Oaks Golf Club for equipment, aerifying and top dressing the greens and batteries for rental carts. It also will expend $20,000 to the Nocona Chisholm Trail Rodeo Arena Committee to build new concrete bleachers, railings, fence and platform.
The third NEDC request is a new one related to a Type B board loan of $200,000 to Amy and Chris Nunneley for a new apartment and office construction project.
