Commissioners approve replats, polling places
Limestone County Commissioners Court moved through its agenda quickly, approving replat requests, polling places and amending service agreements between the county and various entities during its meeting Tuesday, Oct. 11. At the top of the meeting, County Judge Richard Duncan invited Roger Wolfe, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department district leader, to discuss mandatory check stations meant to monitor the spread of Chronic Wasting Disease in deer. Letters were sent to landowners in particular zones informing them of checks, Wolfe said. The disease was detected in the northern part of the county, but nothing further has been found, he said. Chronic Wasting Disease is a fatal neurological disorder found in deer, elk, moose and other members of the “deer” family. The condition is similar to Mad Cow Disease, Wolfe said.
