The Permian Basin Regional Planning Commission has distributed 125 million in grants over 25 years and helped establish the regions EMS system and 911 service in Ortesa. A state review released July 14 highlighted a 700 dollar bar tab at Austin venues charged to executive director Ernie Crawford, who apologized and repaid. Board members Massey and Galindo acknowledge lax oversight and call for tighter monitoring and possible policy changes including per diem meal allowances as reforms proceed.
