Brazos flood control and conservation appeal urged
On August 21 a constitutional amendment election would empower Brazos County voters to back flood control and water conservation.

The piece argues flood losses and lack of local manufacturing economies justify the measure and notes irrigation could aid arid areas and diversify farming in Brazos County.
