Episode Synopsis
Send us a textIn this September 20th edition of the shortcut, the Stonewall County Commissioners are raising deputy salaries, even after losing financial support from the City of Aspermont, ensuring they meet state-mandated minimums. Next, we discuss Rotan ISD's proposed $6.5 million bond for school renovations and teacher housing, addressing rising costs and potential overcrowding. The Rotan City Council has also passed a $2.5 million budget amid some controversy, with concerns over time for review and financial pressures. Finally, Aspermont Schools are set to benefit from free HVAC tune-ups through AEP Texas, aimed at improving energy efficiency. Stay tuned for a sneak peek of this week’s editorial, where our editor dives into the implications of Rotan's budget process and the quest for transparency.
