Economic Development Meeting Held
Glasscock County’s Cooperative Extension held a Community Economic Development meeting Sept. 30 coordinated by Dr. Gene Theodori of Texas A & M and Steve Sturtz. Discussion included collaborating with Howard College and twelve other surrounding counties on community development through a national grant with Howard College and Texas A&M Universities.
Water quality and quantity were discussed, with networking with Dr. Theodori, Texas A&M’s petroleum engineering department and San Angelo on purifying brackish water being part of the discussion. Other topics discussed were senior citizens’ programs, day care, health care and youth programs. Theodori will work with Cooperative Extension agents Sturtz, Warren Multer and Charlene Belew and with area committees to keep abreast of grant and funding opportunities in these areas.
