Bowie City Council approves first reading on HOT restructuring
It took the Bowie City Council 15 minutes to address a brief agenda of business Tuesday night.
The first reading of an ordinance to restructure how the hotel occupancy tax is allocated was approved on a 4-2 vote.
This change was recommended by the hotel/motel tax advisory committee at the Jan. 6 council meeting. It eliminates the percent allocations that are set aside for the community center, auditorium and promotional activities, and requires application for any use that meets the criteria set forth by law. Read the full story in the weekend News.
The following indictments were filed with the 97th District Clerk following the November session of the Montague County Grand Jury.
There were a total of 13 indictments with one sealed awaiting the arrest of a suspect.
A grand jury indictment is not evidence of guilt. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
