ECISD to Face $11.3 Million Budget Shortfall After Session
Austin notes ECISD faced an $11.3 million cut, about 6.2 percent, after the legislative session. A one time $4.47 million EduJobs payment, delayed in Texas, helped offset losses. District officials say health benefits were funded with EduJobs, not pay raises, and anticipate further $4 million state funding cuts next year.

Odessa Permian Basin housing gut check boosts auto optimism
Fiserv notes show declining foreclosure and delinquency while Odessa's oil-led growth lifts the market. The Perryman Group cites healthy petroleum sector as driving employment and sales gains. inventory sits around 312 homes at an average price of 182858. Foreclosures have largely been avoided due to conservative lending, though tighter rules slow new activity. Prices edge up slightly as demand remains strong. Local lenders say access to credit remains the main obstacle to more growth.
