Lawrence resigns county judge post in Van Zandt County
In a tightly divided meeting the Van Zandt County Commissioners Court appointed Dan Flynn of Van as interim county judge after Richard Lawrence resigned. Lawrence, whose last vote broke a 2-2 tie, had announced resignation to take effect after the 2000-2001 budget and tax rate were approved. The session set a $0.46507 property tax rate and adopted a $12 million budget.
