Baytown voters weigh local bonds amid turnout concerns
Deputy city manager Bob Leiper notes residents favor projects benefiting their area while DonCarlos warns on growing segmentation as Baytown expands. Proposition 5 carried downtown areas with low overall turnout about 10 percent, with Precinct 99 111 to 55, Precinct 100 71 to 69, and Precinct 249 192 to 171. DonCarlos laments apathy and urges broader participation.
