County commissioners wrap up 2017 with Thursday meeting
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.
The regular meeting of the Bowie City Council for July 22 has been cancelled. City Manager Bert Cunningham and Mayor Gaylynn Burris will be attending the Texas Public Power Association conference.
City of Bowie officials were on hand to inspect the emergency electrical generators that were delivered last week.
Mayor Gaylynn Burris and City Manager Bert Cunningham inspected one of three emergency electrical generators purchased as part of an ongoing Federal Emergency Management Agency Hazard Mitigation Grant. They also talked with Jay Evans, head of the city electric department, and Jerry Sutton, director of the water treatment plant about the next step for installation of the generators.
This grant provides funding for one 150 kW and two 250 kW generators for use at the water treatment plant.
