Montague County Commissioners met with a dozen 4-H youngsters Monday who told the court about their activities during the past year and thanked them for the support.
The youngsters told the court about their wins and their favorite activities, along with showing off their banners and prize ribbons. Melanie Stott and Justin Hansard, both AgriLife Extension agents for the county, help coordinate the county 4-H program that has 170 members, nine chartered clubs and 13 adult volunteers.
Opening in such a positive fashion, the court then moved into several financial items and property plats.
Chief Appraiser Kim Haralson presented the proposed Montague County Tax Appraisal District budget for both the district and the collections side. There is an overall 3.3% increase on the appraisal side. The county does not take part in the tax collections side.
