County salons handle extensive agenda items
Terry County Commissioners approved 1.5 million in revenue bonds for a new West Texas Children’s Assessment Center and moved other items. They redirected 800 from office supplies to capital outlay for a copier, and declined converting basement offices to a courtroom due to ADA guidelines. They also moved 5,000 to child welfare funding and allowed Amoco to lay 48 inch pipelines under Barditch roads. A loss‑of‑value report showed Terry County losing 195.4 million since 1989, mostly from mineral values, with Gaines and Hockley counties also suffering large property-value declines.
