Water Board Directors Election Set
At its meeting Feb. 17, the Glasscock Groundwater Conservation District’s board of directors ordered an election to be held May 15, with early voting April 28–May 11. Terms are expiring for Kenneth Braden in Precinct 1, Mike Hughes in Precinct 2, and Dennis Seidenberger in the At-large slot. All three have filed for reelection. Other directors are John Phillips and Larry Wheat.
March 15 is the deadline to file for a spot on the ballot. Call the water district office for more information.
Seidenberger, who is the acting vice-chairman of the West Texas Weather Modification Association, reported that organization will stay afloat for at least one more year, thanks to state funding which ends this year. He said the organization plans to work at getting Abilene into the association, and is hopeful that newly elected officials there will be more receptive than in the past.
