We have had a long week of very hot weather. We need rain. My prayer is that this was our hot summer and the rest will be much milder, and of course, wetter. The Art United Methodist Church continues with Sunday morning worship at 11. The sermon is on You Tube also for those that don’t feel comfortable getting out.
The public water system of the City of Mason has reached a Critical, Level 2 condition recently, one of our wells is down for maintenance and the City Administrator John Palacio has implemented additional water conservation measures.  While we do not fear immediate water shortages, we feel it is necessary to move beyond voluntary measures to protect the water levels for everyone.  As the hot summer winds continue to blow and the dry conditions only worsen, the City of Mason will now begin e ...
Sadly, we will be canceling Old Yeller Day this year due to the Corona Virus.

First let me say that all the landowners that filed a protest about Agricultural Valuations (Ag Values) on their properties are NOT opposed to paying their fair share of the tax burden. We ARE opposed to not being given a reasonable answer to why Proposed Values for Native Pastureland increased anywhere from 40% to 60% between 2019 and 2020. I started writing this article about our side of the story and realized Mason County News would need a whole lot more paper and ink!

As I am writing this on Sunday afternoon, the hurricane weather event has not really extended to Art. We have had a few scattered showers. Maybe tomorrow will bring more rain. I am glad to see that most area schools plan to open in August. The world is ready to get back into a routine. Class meetings continue on Wednesday evenings at the church.
