Gratitude Square in Front of the Midland County Annex Hopes to be Completed by This Summer
If you were wondering like me what was being put in front of the Midland County Annex where the old service station used to be, it will be a veterans memorial.
According to the Midland Reporter-Telegram, the project was approved in February 2018 and was scheduled to be completed and opened in six months, but that did not happen thanks to unforeseen setbacks and a pandemic.
But now the project is getting a good shot in the arm toward completion after Midland County Commissioners Court approved $70,000 to complete the site with paving, fencing, and other work needed.

Randall County officials end burn ban
AGN Media
Officials with the Randall County Commissioners Court ended a burn ban for the county earlier this week, allowing the burning of household trash as well as other items within the county.
According to a news release from the county, only certain items, including domestic waste and on-site burning of waste plant growth, are legally allowed to be burned. The release states that the timing of those burns must be monitored.
This comes after Potter County extended its burn ban for the next 90 days earlier this month. That ban is set to end in early August.
