All 9 nine counties ready for storm says TxDOT
WICHITA FALLS DISTRICT : Archer, Baylor, Clay, Cooke, Montague, Throckmorton, Wichita, Wilbarger, and Young Counties – TxDOT crews spent today pretreating bridges and overpasses across our nine counties. With the potential for freezing precipitation starting early tomorrow morning, all crews have plans to start 12-hour around the clock shifts tonight or early tomorrow. Bridges were pretreated with brine. All trucks have their snowplows attached and have been filled with salt, sand, and brine. TxDOT is using brine as the pretreatment as well as on top of snow and ice to precipitate melting. Motorists are reminded that rain will wash away the benefits of our brine pretreatment. Ice and sleet can also coat a roadway very quickly with slick ice. Drivers should use extreme caution. And stay at home unless you must get out for work or an emergency. TxDOT takes care of the Interstates, US highways, State highways, and FM roads. We will be servicing nearly 6,500 lane miles in nine counties
The jury was seated on Monday and the opening day of testimony Tuesday only lasted four hours, before the panel went into deliberations about 2 p.m.
Two hours later the jury returned a guilty verdict on both charges. Wednesday morning the jury was set to begin discussion on Hall’s punishment at 8:30 a.m. with both sides offering evidence and testimony. Hall faces up to 10 years in prison.
The trial was moved to Denton County on a change of venue requested by Hall in March. After 16th District Judge Sherry Shipman read the verdict, it was reported Hall hung her head in disappointment and was later seen crying and emotional as she left the courtroom.
Members of the Bowie City Council will meet in regular session at 6 p.m. on May 13 in council chambers.
The meeting opens with a proclamation for Emergency Medical Services Week.
City Manager Bert Cunningham will report on recent rainfall problems, Smythe Street sidewalk project and the substation work.
There is only one item of new business an ordinance related to speed limits on specific streets. Public comments and approval of minutes wrap up the agenda.
