Nocona councilors meet Tuesday – Bowie News

Members of the Nocona City Council addressed a brief agenda during its meeting Tuesday evening.
Trent Myers has been appointed to the board of directors of the Nocona Economic Development Corporation (Type B).
A $20,000 grant expenditure shared between NEDC Type A and B councils was also approved. This grant will be used by the Chisholm Trail Rodeo Committee to replace the concrete bleachers in the rodeo arena. The lower section was beyond repair and is being replaced, while the other stands are being repaired and boxes are being added.
The city received only one bid for hot-mix asphalt. Austin Bridge offered $89.91 per load delivered and $165 per ton for pothole mix, also delivered.
Councilors approved the annual memorandum of understanding with the Helen Farabee Centers, which provide local mental health services. The city supports these programs with an annual contribution of $1,500.
Updates to the Emergency Action Plan for Lake Nocona Dam were reviewed. Town Clerk Revell Hardison said most of the changes were to the names of those involved and other contractors and supplies that must be provided with the plan.
