Texas Water Board public hearing on aquifer designation Wednesday

Citizens interested in the future of groundwater in Montague County may want to attend a public hearing at 1 p.m. on Nov. 8 in the Bowie Community Center.
The Texas Water Development Board will conduct the hearing, which was prompted by recommendations from the Upper Trinity Groundwater Conservation District, which coordinates Montague, Parker, Hood and Wise Counties.
The district would like to have the four aquifers (Wichita, Cisco-Bowie, Canyon and Strawn) designated as four separate minor aquifers or collectively as one minor aquifer of the state. These aquifers span a 20-county area that includes a large portion of Montague County. At these time these aquifers are not recognized and therefore are not subject to study or consideration in the state water plan and its future development.

Nocona City Council approves NEDC requests

The Nocona City Council approved a trio of Nocona Economic Development Corporation requests and considered infrastructure work questioned by a city council.
Councilors met on June 10. Two of the NEDC requests had already been presented with the timeclock for comment started. With that time limit over, the requests were finalized.
The Type A and B Boards will spend $19,225 at the Indian Oaks Golf Club for equipment, aerifying and top dressing the greens and batteries for rental carts. It also will expend $20,000 to the Nocona Chisholm Trail Rodeo Arena Committee to build new concrete bleachers, railings, fence and platform.
The third NEDC request is a new one related to a Type B board loan of $200,000 to Amy and Chris Nunneley for a new apartment and office construction project.
