Harris County faces slow services after budget cuts

Harris County officials report a reduced allocation for mental health services, with about 145 million dollars requested but only 550 thousand allocated by the Texas Board of Mental Health and Mental Retardation. Dr. Spencer Bayles says the cut will delay new services and leave unserved areas without help. The Bayshore Center runs on a 1963 budget of 181 thousand, with 398 thousand to come from federal sources, as the state disperses funds from a 3.5 million line item. The passage notes the late Walter Prescott Webb calling barbed wire the Industrial Revolution’s greatest contribution to the Plains.
