Tilley Wins Out in Agate Precinct Boundary Fight
County Commissioner I H Tilley won a decisive victory against Agate precinct residents seeking to move the First District boundary. The hearing before the Board of Commissioners upheld Tilley’s position, confirming that Agate precinct already received more than its share of county funds. The lengthy argument covered highway improvements, road costs, and economic benefits to farmers, with testimony and petitions from local taxpayers and surrounding districts.
