Bowie Walmart to get big remodel
The Bowie Walmart has received a building permit to conduct an $880,000 remodeling project at the store located at 1341 East U.S. Highway 287 North.
Bowie Code Officer David Rainey said the permit for remodeling was approved last week, but he is uncertain when the work may begin.
According to the permit, the work includes: Exterior surfaces and interior walls; clean, prep and paint photo lab; relocate/install the garden center; paint restrooms; remodel break room; remodel/install new fixtures in the training room; remodel customer service; refurbish flooring in grocery; remodel entry vestibule; clean and paint online pickup; implement pickup 2.0 and remodel existing pickup area; pharmacy remodel revising customer check-out area.
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.
