Vernon Court Reverses Vernon Light Plant Funding Ruling
The Texas Electric & Ice Company appeals Vernon’s city actions to fund a municipal light plant. The Court of Civil Appeals in Amarillo reverses prior orders, finds improper use of street bonds and water bonds, and remands with instructions for a temporary restraining order to prevent further fund diversions and overdrafts while litigation continues. The decision affirms need for competitive bids and strict adherence to sinking funds and charter limits.
