This video is edited a little bit for Youtube,  but you can hear the entire session here. What I was interested in hearing was several things Judge Maynard discussed. One was that Somervell County doesn't have a contingency fund but needs to set aside money IN CASE Somervell County takes over operations of GRMC *IF* GRMC defaults because they're not financially in good enough shape to keep running it themselves (and may I say right here that if they can't do it, then a hospital board ought to find someone or some entity other than Gary Marks to run it, eh?) . A second was a discussion of whether it would have been better to have the hospital district passed with THAT increase in taxes or the tax increases now that Somervell County proposes to make. A third item was abuot whether trimming the budget would have been better or whether basic services are being covered, and how projections were that we would be paying even MORE taxes than what we do at this point.

Anyway, I think you will find it interesting to watch. There are two hearings set for the public to come to to tell what they think. One is on September 14 at 9:30 am and the second is at September 21 at 9:30 am.
