Facilities committee to make recommendation to BISD Board
Members of the Bowie Independent School District Facility Committee will submit recommendations to the school trustees when they meet at 5:30 p.m. on Feb. 5.
Following the defeat of the $65.8 million bond election last November, the committee was asked to review the needs s and see what could be changed or revised for a new bond proposal. Daniel Deweber, chairman, will speak.
Also expected to talk with the board is Lewis Wilks, district financial advisor and Tom Sage, bond council. If the district wants to have a May bond election for a new plan the election would have to be called by Feb. 16. The agenda includes an action item if the board wants to call a new vote.
Other items on Monday’s called meeting agenda include the oath of office to Nichole Maddox, named to fill the vacancy in place two after Debbie Leonard resigned in December.

Judges have been named for the two cases involving 97th District Attorney Casey Hall, including the indictment for theft and a petition for removal as DA.
On July 11, Judge David L. Evans, presiding judge for the Eighth Administration Region of Texas, assigned E. Lee Gabriel to handle the indictment case against Hall. The judge then named Bruce McFarling for the removal petition case.
The two-term DA Hall was indicted by the Montague County Grand Jury July 15 on a charge of theft of property $2,500 to $30,000, a state jail felony. The allegations stem from reported misappropriation of state grant funds.
