Grand Jury urges salary basis for Ector County Justices of Peace
Weather Judge Selwyn Webber said the Commission Court will act on Grand Jury recommendations to convert Ector County Justices of Peace to a salary basis, replacing the old fee system. The court will discuss the change at a fair session, but nothing could be done until year’s start. The panel also urged improved record keeping, auditing, and sewer court functioning, with emphasis on protecting the public and preventing fee-exploitation under the old system. The matter of Boyt’s concern delayed other items, but once settled, action on the rest would proceed.
