The Baptoton Sun began in 1922 with Wanda Gamer Cash as Editor and Publisher Davie Bloom as Managing Editor and Fred Hartman serving as Publisher Emeritus from 1950 to 1974.
A collection of editorials notes the shift from the Contract With America era to today’s record deficits and debate on a balanced budget amendment. It cites projected deficits near 475 billion dollars and a national debt approaching seven trillion, urging prudent measures and constitutional balance ideas. Government actions on energy reserves and global terrorism are also commented upon, including the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and security concerns.
The Baytown Sun invites public input with weekly editorial board meetings at 2 pm on Wednesdays. Submissions include letters up to 300 words and guest columns up to 500 words, with one monthly limit, photos required, and signed originals only.
A Baytown reader blends memories of racial boundaries and street life with a call to support Proposition 15 in Texas on September 13 2003. The letter argues that boundary changes affect public retirements and pensions, urges voting yes, and references police retired officers and the Houston area.
Baytown Texas government lists City Manager Mayor and council members with phones and district designations. Goose Creek Administration posts superintendent and board of trustees with their districts and contact numbers. Board terms are two and three years, with meetings on the second and fourth Thursdays or Mondays at 6:30 p.m. at City Hall or Goose Creek Administration Building.
