Grand Saline Council weighs lake sale amid waning support
The Grand Saline City Council held a long meeting over the sale of City Lake while hiring an engineer to prepare a dam repair cost estimate. City records show a May 28, 1996 vote in favor of selling the lake, but several council members urged a public vote and closer scrutiny of liability and use. Council members debated resident use and potential partnerships with groups like the Bass Club and Texas Parks and Wildlife.
