ROBSTOWN, Texas â After almost two hours of discussion in an executive session with Nueces County Drainage District #2 Commissioners and an off-the-cuff dialogue between the county judge and residents in a separate room, it was decided that flood concerns tied to the Petronila-area will finally reach a decision on Monday, Jan. 25 at 6 p.m.
The tabling of that discussion came after one Petronila resident had again come forward with frustration upon hearing that commissioners might withdraw their application for a $550,000 grant from the Texas Water Development Board after Nueces County Judge Barbara Canales introduced a proposal that would include Nueces, Jim Wells, and Kleberg counties.
