COMANCHE -- The tradition of unanimous
voting on all matters great and small fell by the wayside at the

issues as they voted against a longer tenured Commissioner and the
recommendations of other county officials. >>Full Story<< |

The following is the fourth in a
series of questions being presented about the upcoming DeLeon ISD bond
issue that will be on the May 12 ballot. The response for the
questions are provided by Dr. Randy Mohundro, Superintendent of
Schools for DISD.
Question - “DeLeon's economy has been
suffering in recent years with the loss of the peanut growing and
all. A large portion of our residents are retirees on a very limited
income. How can we possibly afford the new schools?”

Mohundro's reply<< |

The DeLeon City Council met in a called
session, Tuesday, April 3, and addressed a single agenda item:
possible disciplinary action against DeLeon Police officer Waverly
Inman.
Inman, 28, was arrested March 4, by
members of the Comanche County Sheriff’s Office, following a call from
the DeLeon PD to assist in an investigation of its own.
Following the sheriff’s investigation,
Inman was charged with “assault causes bodily injury, family member.”
After an almost two hour meeting City
Council members voted to change Inman’s status to “reserve officer,
emergency only” according to DeLeon City Secretary Karen Wilkerson.
Council members also voted to allow
Wilkerson to begin advertising for a new officer immediately. |

SNOW-COVERED BLUEBONNETS. The strange weather conditions
Saturday, April 7, left much of North and Central Texas, including
DeLeon, covered in a beautiful blanket of white snow. These
snow-covered bluebonnets, in a yard on the south end of DeLeon,
were an amazing sight, as were the many snow-covered trees,
shrubs, cars, houses…well, you get the picture. Area
residents, young and old alike, were overheard stating, "I've
never seen anything like it." |
