Brown County citizens speak against solar farm tax abatement
Brownwood Bulletin
Six members of TLOW Texas Landowners Opposing Wind urged Brown County Commissioners Court members Monday to refuse a tax abatement for a proposed solar farm project near Brookesmith.
While there were no agenda items at Monday’s meeting that pertained to the proposed solar project, the six spoke during the citizens comments section of the agenda.
TLOW was initially formed by a group of landowners who opposed tax abatements for wind energy.
On Feb. 8, commissioners approved in a 4-1 vote with Brown County Judge Paul Lilly voting “no” guidelines and criteria for any future tax abatements the court might grant.
The following press release was issued Wednesday afternoon on behalf of Brown County Judge Paul Lilly:
Brown County has received the deliveries of approximately 300 COVID -19 vaccinations in the last two weeks and have been distributed to three of the nursing homes in Brown County. Additional vaccinations will be allocated for the other nursing homes in the County as they arrive. We do not have an arrival date for these at this time.
Hendrick Medical Center-Brownwood received 600 vaccines last week which were administered to medical staff and first responders in Brown County. Brownwood/Brown County Health Department received 100 vaccines yesterday that are being administered to medical staff and first responders.
