Election Set for April 27 on Well Spacing Ordinance
Baytown citizens will decide April 27 whether the City Council should pass a well spacing ordinance. The measure would divide the city into squares with one well per square and no new wells in already used squares. The issue will appear on the ballot to select three City Council members, after council members moved the runoff from May to April to avoid a clash with the School Board election. The council canvassed April votes and announced the same totals, with three District candidates listed for the open seats. Debate showed uncertainty over what ordinance the council could legally pass, as some officials questioned power and required facts before presenting to voters.
