County weighs gas heating for Potter County farm
The Potter County Commission considers piping gas to the county farm west of the city to cut heating costs from 550-600 dollars a year with coal to about 200 dollars. A 3000 dollar pipeline extension and on farm upgrades challenge the plan, with Amarillo Gas Company doubtful the farm’s use justifies the expense. Budget limits and tax concerns complicate funding.
