Opinion

You stated “Jennifer Sullivan took it upon herself to make budget amendments.” That is false. One council member cannot “make budget amendments.” I prepared a RECOMMENDATION suggesting budget cuts to avoid dipping into reserves by $860,000 to balance the budget. The city council UNANIMOUSLY approved the suggested budget cuts with revisions. The city manager had the opportunity to raise objections or make changes to the suggestions, but did not do so. City council was in total agreement.

Dr. Dennis Marek is proud to announce the opening of his new veterinary clinic, Cedar Hill Veterinary Services, near New Ulm, TX. The concierge clinic will offer by-appointment only house calls and in-clinic visits with a personalized touch. He will be focusing on high-quality medicine in a relaxed environment. The clinic offers small animal wellness, surgery, laboratory and radiology services. House calls will be aimed at providing wellness and preliminary illness care with hospitalization available if needed. Equine wellness care will also be available. Dr. Marek has over 40 years of experience and will be assisted by Karen Luther, who has over 30 years of veterinary technician experience. He will be offering after hour/emergency care for established clients and is proud to be working with PUPS. For more information or to make an appointment, please call or text Karen at 979-212-1841.
