Kovar will take the oath of office after defeating Lee Ann Dumbauld in the March primaries.
He s retiring from LP&L after 23 years and says his experience will help in his transition. I feel like I m going to come in a little more comfortable than what others would not having a background in working for a city government, he said.Â
Precinct 1 is the fastest-growing part of Lubbock County. Kovar s plans to focus on keeping up with the boom and improve roadways. Our roads are needing a lot of repair, he said. That goes from dirt roads, caliche and paved. And we just have to do everything wisely.
