The Bowie City Council approved 11 appointments to three separate boards and went into closed session to discuss “contemplated litigation” during its Monday night session.
The agenda listed the consultation with an attorney for “contemplated litigation E.S. & C.M.,” based on correspondence received by the city staff. Councilors convened for a 25-minute closed executive session, but returned in open session to take no action.
On the regular agenda appointments were made to the Bowie Economic Development Corporation 4A and the 4B boards, and the Bowie Library Board. Read the full story in the weekend Bowie News.

Lake Amon G. Carter has now (Thursday, Nov. 14) re-opened for boating. Selma Parkremains closed due to electric problems caused by high water. Water levels remain above normal and boaters should be cautious of possible debris.
The lake was closed on Nov. 8 after heavy rainfall and a rising lake level. It is considered full at 920 mean sea level and through the weekend it was topped more than 922 msl.
