County judge seeks sales tax money for dire straits budget
Ector County faces a tight budget and proposes cost cuts including a hiring freeze while asking Medical Center Hospital to relinquish part of the monthly sales tax. Hospital officials say they have not been approached and would not give up tax revenue. The issue traces to 1990 when voters approved MCH’s sales tax rebate to support the hospital district.
