Brownfield Council Accepts Generator Repair Bid Amid Prep For CDBG Hearing
Brownfield City Council accepted a $46,164 bid from Southwest Electric of Oklahoma City plus $875 per coil for repair of a generator damaged in a lightning storm. If all 30 coils require repair, total could reach $71,214. Other bids ranged up to $107,338. The panel also held a public hearing for the community development block grant program and discussed annual funding. City Manager Jake Geron said repairs would start in the coming weeks and noted insurance reps, though late, appeared willing to pay the claim. The meeting included a CDBG update as Brownfield enters year three of a $1.5 million federal grant cycle.

May Weather Causes Replanting For Terry County Cotton
May moisture in Terry County forced many cotton farmers to replant after floods. Nell O Briant reports the hardest hit area spans from Johnson Gin to Wellman with almost all cotton in need of replanting. Jerry Liles and Gerald Jordan note near total replanting except for small acreages as furrows wash out and bed planters offer limited relief. See Weather on Page 4.

Local Realtors Urge Citizens to Help Cut Deficit
Brownfield Board of Realtors led by Eyvonne Crenshaw hosts 150 members in Lubbock. Benny McMahan calls for a bipartisan push to cut the federal deficit to under 100 billion, promising 3-4 percent rate cuts could add 41,000 Texas homes, 75,000 new buyers, 36,000 jobs, and $500 more income per household. Crenshaw says citizens should back a national effort to lower rates and urges action before the 1983 budget deadline.
