Levee Work at Copperas Creek Delayed by Injunction Threat
Copperas Drainage district work on the Copperas Creek levee may pause as Judge Thorp threatens an injunction to settle contract terms with contractor Stevens. Thorp contends the levee must be continuous and level on both sides, while Stevens maintains his contract covers center dirt removal only. If delayed, extra work may be needed to balance dirt from highs to lows, with completion targeted by January 1 or February 1, 1907.
