Llano County Voters Weigh Agricultural Building Bond
Voters in Llano County decide on a bond issue to fund an agricultural building with a proposed total up to 25 500 dollars while WPA aid remains uncertain. Officials say the county should borrow only what is essential, likely 13 000 dollars, to avoid waste and preserve independence from WPA funds. Engineers map farms under conservation programs and city street repairs continue after heavy rainfall.
