Montague County Commissioners will wrap up 2017 when they meet at 9 a.m. on Dec. 28.
An executive session is scheduled to discuss security devices or security audits. Any action will be made back in open session.
There will be a hearing on vacating an alleyway in the town of Stoneburg. The surrounding property is owned by the same person, who made the request, and the alley has never been used.
A recommendation from Perdue, Brandon, Fielder, Collins & Mott, LLP to refund taxes paid by the Shakan Corporation on one acre in the Willaby Tullons Survey will be considered. The tax attorneys also will recommend rescinding a court order pertaining to three acres in the Anderson Buffington Survey and refunding taxes paid by Steven L. Santos.
Other topics will include the monthly consent agenda, a road crossing on Whispering Oaks Trail and accepting the continuing education transcript of Tax Assessor-Collector Syd Nowell.
A BOIL WATER NOTICE remains in effect for the 800 block of Lively Street. Affected residents should use bottled or boiled water for drinking, cooking, or brushing teeth. If you are impacted by this notice and need bottled water, please call the City’s Emergency Management Coordinator at (940) 977-4941
The heat advisory that has been in place all week continues until 8 p.m. Friday night.
The National Weather Service reports strong high pressure overhead will bring triple digit high temperatures along with heat index readings approaching 110 degrees for much of next week. To reduce risk of heat related illnesses when outdoors, schedule frequent breaks in shaded or air conditioned areas, and stay hydrated.
Make sure to check on your older neighbors to make sure they are staying cool and hydrates, and make sure pets have shade and water.
