On Wednesday, June 23, the Waller County Commis-sioners Court met at 9 a.m. at the Waller County Courthouse. Commissioners John Amsler, Justin Beckendorff, Jeron Bar-nett, and Russell Klecka were present and Waller County Judge Trey Duhon presided.
After approval of consent agenda items, a presentation by the WCCC of the Distinguished Service Award was pre-sented to the Waller County Historical Commission on behalf of the Texas Historical Commission for their active and effec-tive historical preservation in Waller County in 2014.
In further business, an agenda item proposed by Pct. 4 Commissioner Justin Beckendorff, the posting of current landfill ordinance maps on the county website, was discussed at length. All commissioners agreed that for the purposes of transparency, the maps should be posted. However, the item was tabled until maps can be authenticated and the court can be assured that any maps posted on the county website are correct.
Heated debate occurred in regards to another agenda item put forward by Beckendorff. Beckendorff had asked the court to instruct legal counsel to move forward immediately with a new solid waste proposal, and Pct. 3 Commissioner
Jeron Barnett lent his support to Beckendorff’s request.The currently active 2011 ordinance states than any area
within a two mile radius of any privately-owned solid waste disposal site holding a valid permit as of August 26, 2011, is eligible for solid waste development, but no other sites will be permitted or will be authorized by the county after that date.
Commissioners Beckendorff and Barnett stated their concern that this might open the county for a landfill in the Monaville area, or other areas that have quick access to trans-portation via I-10.
However, after heated debate between commissioners and a further consultation with attorney JD Head of Fritz, Bryne, Head & Fitzpatrick during Executive Session via a telephone conference call, the court emerged from Executive Session and voted 3-2 (Commissioner Beckendorff and Bar-nett supported the motion) against any action to move for-ward with a new solid waste ordinance at this time.
Duhon stated, “Due to the upcoming Contested Case Hearing with the SOAH, to which Waller County is a full participant on the side of the citizens, attorneys for the county have recommended keeping the 2011 ordinance in place at this time.”
Duhon then added, “I defer to our attorney’s judgment. Negating the 2011 ordinance could have drastic consequenc-
es and may compromise the county’s position in the Contest-ed Case hearing. I suggest following their advice. The 2011 ordinance will be revised when it’s best for the county.”
Commissioner Amsler proclaimed, “The best legal ad-vice for JD Head is to keep the 2011 ordinance at this time. The stakes are high. Our aquifer and our drinking water are at stake. It is not time to quibble.”
In another contentious agenda item, Commissioner Beckendorff proposed setting spending limits on outside le-gal counsel, and was supported in this position by Commis-sioner Barnet.
In response, Judge Duhon stated that the county had passed resolutions concerning the high speed rail, the trans-mission lines, and Pintail LLC, supporting the positions of the citizens on these issues. Legal counsel, according to Duhon, was chosen by the court and the firm Fritz, Byrne, Head and Fitzpatrick, PLLC gave an estimate of their fees before they were hired.
“Cost of legal counsel is by nature uncertain, “ Judge Duhon stated. He added that the court has worked to limit at-torney’s fees by initiating teleconferences and by leaving the hiring of experts to other entities involved in the Contested

The new Goodman Manufacturing facility (shown in this drone photo) has poured its 1 millionth foot of concrete this past week. The new Cypress Creek Campus on kermier rd. and Hwy. 290 will have completed one fourth of the building’s concrete placement. More than 70 tilt-wall concrete panels have been set, according to Communications Manager Graham Painter. Submitted photo.
Goodman Manufacturing said re-cently that their new Cypress Creek Campus on Kermier Rd. will complete one fourth of the building’s concrete placement this week. “When it’s been sunny, we’ve poured concrete, and when it’s been rainy, we’ve set steel and erect-ed walls,” said Goodman’s Communica-tions Manager Graham Painter. More than 70 tilt-wall panels have been set.
The Goodman Cypress Creek Campus will house a world-class, state-of-the-art air conditioning engineering, manufacturing, testing, administrative and logistics center. It is utilizing tilt-wall construction in which the concrete walls are poured on site and “tilted-up” into position, allowing improved effi-ciency and avoiding having to transport the large panels over public roads.
The plant will be a leader in ef-ficiency, reclaiming its process water, using high-efficiency LED lighting
throughout, utilizing high-efficiency climate control equipment, sodding the area with drought-resistant Texas prairie grass, and using its rainwater retention pond for landscape irrigation.
Most importantly, the Good-man team designed the plant from the ground up to encourage collaboration and teamwork. Conference rooms and huddle spaces abound, and innovative 2-story “pods” in the manufacturing and distribution areas will offer convenient break rooms for coffee, lunch, and quick meetings.
“When completed, we will have a plant where active discussion, in-novation, and problem-solving are the norm,” Takeshi Ebisu, Goodman Presi-dent & CEO, said recently. “Our goal is to build the best air conditioners in the best way with our best work force.”

The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) will increase DWI patrols for a 12-day period that includes the July 4th holiday. From June 26 – July 7, DPS troopers will focus DWI patrols in high-risk locations at times when al-cohol-related crashes are most frequent.
“As Texans make their plans for the Fourth of July, DPS is urging everyone to en-joy the holiday responsibly,” said DPS Direc-tor Steven McCraw. “Driving while impaired can have deadly consequences, so Texans who
plan to drink alcohol should always designate a sober driver or choose alternate forms of transportation. During the holiday, DPS troop-ers will be increasing patrols to help keep trav-elers safe and take dangerous drivers off the road.”
During the 2014 July 4th enforcement period, DPS troopers made more than 1,050 DWI arrests during the enforcement period. Of those arrests, 219 were the direct result of a Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT)
grant, which allowed increased patrols in high-risk locations during times when alcohol-relat-ed crashes are most frequent. During the same period, DPS enforcement also resulted in more than 15,000 speeding citations and more than 2,500 seat belt/child safety seat citations.
According to TxDOT, in 2014 more than 1,000 people in Texas were killed in motor ve-hicle crashes involving a driver who was un-der the influence of alcohol, accounting for 29 percent of the year’s total traffic fatalities.
Goodman Campus Construction Proceeds Despite Record Rains
Contentious Court Rejects Drafting New Solid Waste Ordinance

On Monday, June 22, at 6 p.m., Waller County Election Administrator Dan Teed, along with Democratic Party Chair Ben Tibbs, and Republican Party Chair Wallace Koenning, hosted the first in a series of three pub-lic meetings on the possibility of implementing county-wide voting in Waller County. County Judge Trey Duhon, Commissioner Pct. 2 Russell Klecka, and Commission-er Pct. 1 John Amsler also attend-ed the meeting, forming a quorum of the Commissioners Court.
Teed stated that the purpose of the public meeting was to pro-vide additional information and to solicit comments from the public on the proposed change.
A county-wide polling place, commonly called a Vote Center, on Election Day is one where any registered voter of Waller County may vote just as in early voting. If county-wide polling places are

implemented, a voter on Election Day would no longer be required to vote in his or her home precinct polling location, but could vote at any polling location in the county. Voters would then be able to vote according to their schedule and lifestyle.
Although the county now has 19 polling places, that number may be reduced if Voting Cen-ters are approved by the county. All selected polling centers must
have internet access, adequate parking, and be handicapped ac-cessible. The state requires that a county maintain 65% of locations during the first election, and 50% thereafter. If the county’s applica-tion is approved, a committee of citizens, with the approval of the Commissioners Court, will deter-mine the polling locations within the county.
Teed believes Vote Centers will reduce voter fraud, since all
poll workers in the county would have immediate access to voter registration records via the inter-net, allowing them to know in-stantly whether an individual has already cast their ballot.
County-wide voting began in 2003, with a pilot program in Larimer County, Colorado. In 2006, the 78th Texas Legislature authorized a pilot program in Lubbock County. By 2011, Colo-rado, Indiana, Iowa, Texas, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee and Utah have all approved the use of Vote Centers. Twenty-six Texas counties now participate in the program.
August 20 is the deadline for the county to submit a formal ap-plication to the Texas Secretary of State for participation in the program. The application must include video or transcripts of all

above a simple event, setting Con-cord as the spiritual center of the American nation. It sheds light on what might be a mundane event of a battle, the firing of the first shot against the British in the American Revolution, turning it into a symbol-ic event of “right over might”. That first shot has long been acknowl-edged as an important stepping-stone on the march to freedom, not only for Americans, but for all na-tions of the world.
At Concord, a group of ordi-nary citizen farmers, stood up to what was then the most powerful nation on earth, and dared to chal-lenge their right to rule the colonies by fiat.
These brave Americans dared to thwart the status quo, and chal-lenged the so-called “divine right” of kings to rule arbitrarily over their citizens.
A little over a year later, on July 4, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was officially ad-opted by the Continental Congress, which announced to the world that the 13 American colonies, already at war with Great Britain, regarded themselves as free and independent.
The Declaration stated in part, “Re-solved, that these United Colonies are and of right ought to be, free and independent states, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown…”
What an astounding statement by our fledgling nation! No coun-try in the world at that time lacked a monarch or absolute ruler. The idea of governing oneself was a novel concept, untried at the time. Our Founding Fathers, signers of the Declaration of Independence laid it all on the line for their new country, pledging, “..with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sa-cred Honor.”
And that fight for our freedom all began at Lexington and Concord, an event immortalized in Emerson’s famous poem, which honors all those who gave their lives so that our nation may live free.
The Concord HymnBy the rude bridge that arched the flood,Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
deteriorate, leading to a watershed event in world history.
At 5 a.m. on April 19, 1775, 700 British troops set out to capture Patriot leaders and seize Patriot ar-senals at Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts Colony. The British troops, under Major John Pitcairn, upon entering Lexington, found 77 American minutemen under Cap-tain John Parker waiting for them on the town’s green. Smith ordered the minutemen to disperse, when a shot was fired, and a brief battle oc-curred. Afterwards, eight Americans lay dead and 10 others wounded.
The British then continued into Concord to seize arsenals, not realiz-ing that, thanks to a rather elaborate colonial intelligence network led by the Sons of Liberty, the Patriots had been made aware--particularly by the late night ride of Paul Revere and others-- that their supplies were at risk, and had successfully relocated the majority of their arms and am-munition before the British arrived.
The British then proceeded to burn what little they found. Viewing the conflagration from their lookout, the American militia left their hill-top retreat, and hustled to Concord’s
North Bridge. Believing that the Redcoats were simply trying to in-timidate them, they had no intention of opening fire. That illusion was shattered when a volley was loosed from the British side. Afterwards, the Redcoats fell back, but then one of the colonists returned volley, initi-ating a fire fight. This first shot fired by an unknown militiaman became the famous “shot heard round the world.”
The American Revolution had begun.
The battles of Lexington and Concord were the first battles of the American Revolution, a conflict that would escalate from a colonial upris-ing to a world war, that seven years later would give birth to the indepen-dent United States of America.
A little over 60 years after the battle, Ralph Waldo Emerson, a highly renowned American poet, immortalized the “shot heard round the world” in his poem, “The Con-cord Hymn”. The poem was written at the request of the Battle Monu-ment Committee of Concord, and was read at Concord’s Independence Day celebration in 1837.

By 1775, tensions had been brewing between the British crown and their American colonies for sev-eral years. Starting in 1763, King George III began the disputes by issuing a proclamation prohibiting settlements beyond the Appalachian Mountains where many American colonists had already settled. Some clashes occurred between the British and American setters, as the British stopped colonists as they headed west and forcibly removed others
from their homesteads.Adding insult to injury, in
1765, Parliament passed the Quar-tering Act, asserting that colonists must find or pay for lodging of Brit-ish soldiers stationed in America. Parliament furthered the angst of the Americans by passing a string of tax acts, including the infamous Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts--which required a tax on all import-ed goods.
Colonists complained vehe-mently to both the King and to Par-liament that their rights as British citizens were violated by these acts, since Americans had no representa-tion in Parliament and therefore no voice in laws passed concerning the American colonies. Envoys were sent to the king to request represen-tation, but all their pleas fell on deaf ears.
Hence, in response to the Brit-ish crown ignoring their requests for representation, in 1774 the first Con-tinental Congress was formed. Rela-tionships between the British and the American colonists continued to

the company last week, and he con-firmed that’s exactly what it looks like from the air.
Nevertheless, they aren’t letting a “little” rain stop them. They just move some dirt around to “contour” the land and force the water into the ditches along Hwy 290, and they work on the part of the land that is drier than the rest.
I’m still in awe of that build-ing they are constructing on the side of the property nearest FM 2920. It didn’t look so big while the steel was going up, but then they started put-ting up the walls, and oh, my! My friend from Goodman tells me that just that one building is one million square feet. That’s 1,000,000 – six zeroes! To break that down into num-bers that you and I might understand – although maybe not fully compre-hend: that’s room for 400 houses of 2,500 square feet each – the size of a good-size subdivision. Wow.
One more weather item: as of Monday, the Houston area hasn’t had a 100-degree day since September 3, 2013 – that’s 658 days (and yes, I’ve probably jinxed it!). The weather people aren’t predicting one this week, either, which bodes well for the Waller Freedom Fest Friday and Saturday. There’s no rain predicted, either, and that’s a good thing. Can’t have fireworks in the rain!
Come out to the Waller High School stadium north of town on Friday around 6:00 p.m. Fireworks will follow a musical program at around 9:00.
On Saturday, festivities will start at 3:00, with rides and games (helicopter rides, anyone?), a petting zoo, food, drink, more food, crafts … and did I mention food? Fire-works again at around 9:00.

e make fun of Texas weather. Our friends up North make
fun of Texas weather. Even people in California, home of random mud-slides and earthquakes, make fun of Texas weather.
However, Mother Nature was particularly moody on Saturday, and no one was making fun. I was head-ing to Waller from Houston around 8:00 in the evening. Up ahead, I could see lots of gray smoke blow-ing across the highway, just west of the Grand Parkway overpasses. As wet as it’s been, I couldn’t imagine what could possibly be burning.
Then I drove into the “smoke,” and it wasn’t smoke at all. It was rain – heavy, blinding rain – the kind that even windshield wipers on full couldn’t handle.
Suddenly – and thankfully - ev-eryone slowed to a crawl and tried to stay in their own lane – wherever that might be. Scary, believe me!
But here’s the interesting part. Going into this mini-storm, my temperature gauge read 90 degrees. Within four-tenths of a mile – just seconds – the temperature dropped 10 degrees. Plummeted is a better
word.After another two-tenths of a
mile, the temperature dropped to 77 degrees.
Then just as suddenly as I en-countered the rain, I drove out and continued my very dry journey on into Waller. By the time I reached my house, a scant ten miles from “point of impact,” the temperature was back up to 88 degrees.
Now THAT, my friends, con-stitutes very strange Texas weather!
A friend and I were discussing this and she shared her own tale of Texas weather from Thursday night. She lives off FM 2978 just east of Tomball. They got five inches of rain Thursday night between 8:00-10:00, including a lightning strike that exploded a huge tree between her house and her neighbor’s. She proclaimed that to be just a bit more excitement than she wanted. She said all she does now in her spare
time is pick up limbs that rain and wind have knocked out of the trees.
From the reports coming out of the Waller County Sheriff’s depart-ment, the northern part of the coun-ty nearly went under water again. Almost a dozen roads and/or inter-sections along FM 1488, Joseph, Riley, FM 362 North, and others in that general area were either impass-able or had enough water on them to make driving on them dangerous.
No one is brave or courageous when they drive through high water on roads. It’s a short slogan, but im-portant: TURN AROUND! DON’T DROWN!
I do feel bad for the folks build-ing that massive Goodman air con-ditioner plant just east of town. That property could more accurately be described as a 500-acre lake right now, what with all of the unprec-edented rain we’ve had. In fact, I was talking to one of the men from

Case Hearing.Commissioner Amsler was “amazed” at the ob-
jection to attorney fees expressed by Commissioners Beckendorff and Barnett.”
“Allison, Bass”, Amsler stated, “hired by the pri-or commissioners court to fight the citizens, cost this county and arm and a leg, yet no objection was ever voiced by anyone but me.” (Authors note: Barnett was on the court at that time, but Beckendorff was not.)
Duhon added, “Every opportunity is provided in Executive Session to discuss bills in detail. How much is it worth to save our drinking water? Ten thousand? Twenty thousand? Will we say we will spend twenty thousand and not a penny more? I think most of us would agree that defending our county’s drinking water is well worth the price.”
Finally, after a heated debate, there was a motion made to table the item to set spending limits on outside legal counsel. The motion passed 3-2, with Beckend-orff and Barnett voting no.
According to the County Auditor, Alan Younts, ap-proximately $35,000 is available in the budget for at-torney’s fees and some contingency funds, already allo-cated in the budget, would also be available if needed.
Also, the court approved submission of the appli-cation to the Federal Justice Assistance Grant Program for Fiscal Year 2015, for $1.8 million. The grant, if ap-proved, will award the county funds for two constables per precinct, as well as their vehicles and salary pack-ages for three years. The new officers will be slated to work with Royal and Waller ISD to reduce truancy.

WiSd Public informationThe students of H.T. Jones El-
ementary School were recognized at grade-level awards ceremonies held on Monday, June 1. The bril-liant young pupils were recognized by their teacher for their accom-plishments throughout the school year.
Awards were given to students who made a 90% or above on the reading or science STAAR test, as well as awards for University Inter-scholastic League elementary con-tests and other accomplishments. The fifth-grade awards ceremony was bittersweet for the teachers, as this was the last week the students

the student’s accomplishments and tearfully expressed how much they would miss having the children in their classrooms. At the ceremony’s conclusion, the students presented their parents with a framed picture PTO mom Sheri Ordner gener-ously captured of the students. The pictures were well received from
tearful parents who were proud of their young students for complet-ing elementary school.

The students of H.T. Jones elementary School refused to let a lit-tle bit of rain get them down during a stormy week, so they took their end of school year field day celebration indoors to the gym on May 29. Jones Elementary Physical Education teacher Ron Hill planned several games for the students. The young pupils burned off some energy and had a great time with their friends running relay races and playing tug-of-war as they celebrated the end of school. Pictured are Jones elementary students competing in an intense battle of tug-of-war. WISD Public Information.
public hearings. Most citizens attending
the hearing expressed approval of the proposed plan. Those
against it were mainly concerned about the reduction of polling
locations.Commissioner Amsler ad-
dressed the attendees on his con-cerns stating, “Will the people be satisfied? We have a long history of contention surround-ing voting in Waller County. I’m afraid it could be problematic.”
Commissioner Klecka add-ed his concern on the increased cost for those running for office due to the need to place signage at all polling locations if Waller County moves to Vote Centers.
Judge Duhon, however, spoke positively of the change, saying, “I think it would be eas-ier for citizens to vote anywhere in the county. I’m all in favor of advancing technology.”
Teed emphasized that if Waller County is approved for county-wide polls for the No-vember General Election, it is only a trial, and further partici-pation will depend on the satis-faction of Waller County voters.

The students of Waller Junior High School took a minute to cel-ebrate their accomplishments and the beautiful weather before the end of school at field day on the turf at the auxiliary Stadium. The students opted to have a field day over an end of the year dance and had some fun in the sun. The school supplied several inflatable activities for the students to enjoy, such as an inflatable basketball court, baseball pitching station, obstacle courses, and several other activities. WISD Public Information.
Here once the embattled farmers stoodAnd fired the shot heard round the world.
The foe long since in silence slept;Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;And Time the ruined bridge has sweptDown the dark stream which sea-ward creeps. On this green bank, by this soft stream,We set today a votive stone;That memory may their deed re-deem,When, like our sires, our sons are gone.
Spirit, that made those heroes dareTo die, and leave their children free,Bid Time and Nature gently spare.The shaft we raise to them and thee.
As for myself, I have always been beyond proud of my country and its heritage. May our flag forever wave over the “land of the free and the home of the brave.”
May everyone enjoy a grand and glorious Fourth of July! Happy Independence Day!
