The metaphorical dead horse Hereford Independent School District (HISD) appeared to be beating over getting a bond issue passed must have been named Lazarus after it revived and bolted across the finish line Tuesday. In an ironic turn at the ballot box, voters approved a $22.4 million HISD bond proposal in Tuesday’s general election. “We are very excited about the bond passing and very grateful to the

The bond was the third floated by HISD since 2015 and saw a complete turnaround at the polls than the previous two. After both a $42.6 million plan and $45 million measure were defeated by 2:1 and 60-40 margins, respectively, in 2015 and 2017, the $22.4 million bond passed with 67 percent of the vote.

In numbers that far surpassed any from recent non-presidential elections, Tuesday’s Election Day in Deaf Smith County definitely drew a crowd. In the mid-term election that included key state and national races, it was a pair of local issues that drove interest and resulted in 43.1 percent of the county’s 8.860 registered voters casting ballots. Unofficial tallies from Tuesday showed 3,816 county voters pushed the button between 10 days of early voting and Tuesday’s official Election Day. “The turnout was better than expected,” Deaf Smith County Clerk of Court Imelda DeLaCerda said. “Everything went well. There were no problems at all.” DeLaCerda was overseeing DELACERDA her final election as county clerk after her re-election bid failed in the March Republican primary. Primary winner Rachel Garman, who ran unopposed Tuesday, will take the office in January. However, it was not races, but issues that topped the local ballot with Hereford Independent School District (HISD) seeing a $22.4 million bond proposal approved and voters passing a non-binding City of Hereford referendum to use $6.5 million of city and Hereford Economic Development Corporation (HEDC) funds to build a proposed civic center. Although the ballot included nine races for county offices, only one of those – county judge – was contested.

Voters have say, OK funding for new civic center By Jim Steiert Contributing Writer

In the crapshoot that officials expected, the dice came up seven Tuesday as voters approved funding for a new civic center in Hereford. With prospects uncertain of the non-binding referendum passing, 55 percent of voters approved the proposal to use $6.5 million of city and Hereford Economic Development Corporation (HEDC) funds to construct a new civic center. “I am certainly glad it passed,” Hereford Mayor Tom Simons said. “I hoped

and the school bond passing. It is giving us momentum for the community to move in the right direction.” Unofficial results from Tuesday – election results are not official until canvassed and certified by the election’s governing body – showed 2,701 cast ballots on the issue with 1,485 favoring it and 1,216 in opposition. While that translates into a 10 percent difference in vote total (55-45 percent), the difference only amounted to 269 votes.

Saturday, November 10, 2018

AMARILLO – The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) seized 150 pounds of marijuana Saturday, after a Texas Highway Patrol Trooper stopped a vehicle in Oldham County. At approximately 1:56 p.m., a DPS trooper stopped a 2019 Dodge SUV traveling east on I-40 near Vega for a traffic violation. A DPS canine arrived on scene and alerted on

The driver – Paulette Orona, 50, of Winnetka, Calif. – was arrested and charged with felony possession of marijuana. Orona was transported and booked into the Oldham County Jail. The drugs allegedly were being transported from Winnetka, Calif. to Minneapolis, Minn.

One of the first orders of business will determining a length for the bond. Specialized Public Finance managing director Vince Viaille presented preliminary proposals for 15- and 20-year terms in August that showed tax rates for the bond ranging from 12.3 mils – 12.3 cents per $100 property valuation – for a 20-year term to 14.7 mils for 15 years. Although the 15-year tax rate is higher, the interest rate is lower and would result in a savings of more than $3 million in total payout over the 20-year plan. Exactly when actual work on bond projects will begin is not known at this time, along with how long it will take to complete all the projects and in what order they will be undertaken. “There is no specific order for projects at this time,” Blankenship said. “Many factors will be taken into consideration with the biggest of those being student instruction. “We want to ensure the work does not hinder student instruction and learning. We will meet soon to discuss this topic and many others.” Blankenship also did not specify when trustees might address the bond term, but expects it to be soon following a meeting with financial consultants. Barring a called meeting, the earliest trustees could approve a bond term would be at the board’s regular meeting, Monday, Nov. 27.

News FROM PAGE 1

The voting ratio was consistent throughout early voting and into Election Day with 1,909 voting early (1,020 for; 889 against) and 792 casting ballots (465 for; 327 against) Tuesday. The reason for the referendum was public and official “pushback” on a new civic center proposal Hereford City Manager Rick Hanna made in July 2017. The proposal called for construction of a 25,000 square-foot facility on West 15th Street between the Texas Department of Public Safety and Amarillo College campus. The building would replace the existing Hereford Community Center, which officials found had served its purpose for the past 60 years and was cost prohibitive to repair or renovate. Projected funding for the $6.5 million project was coming from $4 million of unencumbered city funds and $2.5 million from a $5.2 million-plus HEDC fund balance. After almost a year of preliminary work before

Lady Herd on to Sweet 16 From Staff Reports

Herd freshman Nicky Villalovos has been named District 3-4A Boys Newcomer of the Year after earning first-team doubles and secondteam singles all-district honors. BRAND/John Carson

Tabbed at District 3-4A Girls MVP, Lady Whiteface sophomore Victoria Betzen made it twofor-two with first-team all-district singles honors. BRAND/John Carson

All-District ‘icing on cake’ By John Carson BRAND Managing Editor

Fall tennis in District 3-4A was dominated by Canyon and Hereford this year, subsequently, postseason honors have a distinctive turn toward the northern end of the region as the two schools dominated the 2018 3-4A All-District teams. After a season that saw the Whitefaces win their first postseason matches this century and advance into the Class 4A Sweet 16 before falling to Vernon in the Region 1 semifinals, the Herd stampeded through with postseason honors. All members of the team were recognized with nine making first team, 11 being named to the second team and one earning honorable mention honors. Leading the way is sophomore Victoria Betzen, who was named District 3-4A Girls MVP, in addition to being named first-team No. 1 girls singles and part of the second-team No. 2 girls doubles tandem with Klarise Hill.

Betzen paced the Herd this season with a 45-7 record. Freshman Nicky Villalovos was named Boys Newcomer of the Year, while earning first-team mixed doubles honors with Macy Warlick and being named second-team at No. 2 boys singles. “My first four years we have mainly honorable mentions with a few second teams sprinkled in,” Hereford coach Cody Crouch said. “Last year was the first time since I had been here that someone got first team (Betzen). “To now get the Girls MVP, Boys Newcomer of the Year and nine firstteam selections is a big accomplishment. I feel like we took a ton of little steps in improvement this year, and this is the icing on the cake.” Lady Whitefaces joining Betzen in first-team singles are Ally Hubbard at No. 3, Kamille Hicks at No. 4 and Hill at No. 5. Hick and partner Liddy Flood were also named first

team at No. 3 girls doubles. In boys singles, Alfredo Avila was named first team at No. 5 with Jacen Saenz joining him at No. 6. Carl Ramos was also named first team at No. 7 singles. All three boys doubles teams earned second-team honors with Tommy Villalovos-Kevin Nguyen at No. 1, Saenz-Ramos at No. 2 and John Ferris-Avila at No. 3. Joining No. 2 singles Nicky Villalovos on the second team are brother Tommy at No. 1, Nguyen at No. 3 and Ferris at No. 4. Lady Whiteface No. 7 singles Lanae Blankenship was also named to the second team, while Warlick, a mixed doubles first-teamer, earned honorable mention recognition at No. 6 singles. “We are still working on our big step, which is to beat Canyon and get more kids on the first-team list,” Crouch said. “They have worked very hard as team in the past, but I have always enjoyed all-district awards because it recognizes the hard work they each put in individually.”

Forced to play a volleyball playoff match in New Mexico for the second time in three years, the Hereford Lady Whitefaces did the same thing Tuesday they did in 2016 when they had to travel to Artesia to face an El Paso team in the Region 1 quarterfinals – they won. Unfazed by the bus trip and undaunted by the opponent, the Lady Herd made short work of El Paso Fabens with a 3-0 sweep in the Class 4A Region 1 quarterfinals. In winning their third straight match – all playoff sweeps – the Lady Whitefaces have now won six of the last seven and 10 of the past 12 to crawl above .500 (23-22) after a 3-15 start to the season. Coming in as the thirdranked 4A team in the state, the Lady Wildcats saw their season end at 34-2. Lady Herd supersoph Rainey Aven recorded a triple double to lead the 25-20, 25-13, 25-21 victory. Aven was one of three Lady Whitefaces to crack

The Lady Herd added 4 aces with Alyssa Vallejo, Aubrey Landis, Danielle Pena and Darcy Dodd all serving up 1. Vallejo doled out a team-high 19 assists with Aven adding 10. Landis, Pena and Stow had 1 apiece. Aven completed her triple double with 10 of the Lady Whitefaces’ 48 digs. Pena came up with 14 digs to pace the backcourt defense, while Alyssa Vallejo finished with 8 and Bonnie Vallejo with 7. Miranda Acosta added 4 digs, and Dodd was credited with 3. Flood and Stow came up with 1 each. Along the net, the Lady Whitefaces ruled the roost with 9 blocks. Flood rejected 4, while Stow stopped 3.

Community 9th annual dessert auction to sweeten playground pot By Jim Steiert Contributing Writer

In a traditional preface to the Thanksgiving holidays that can save turkey day and Christmas cooks some worry and effort, King’s Manor Methodist Retirement Home will host its ninth annual Homemade Dessert Auction. The event will be Tuesday, Nov. 20 in King’s Manor Lamar Room with the auction to follow dinner and entertainment. Proceeds will go toward building a new fence around the King’s Manor Child Care play area and spruce up playground equipment for the department. The event will kick off with a homemade meat loaf dinner with all the sides prepared. The meal will be served from 6-6:45 p.m. In a repeat from last year, Gospel music accompanying the dinner will be performed by Vivian and Rocky Andrews. Door prizes will also be awarded. Tickets, priced at $10 each, can be obtained at the King’s Manor office or at the door. The auction following the dinner is a celebration of decadent desserts that will be fresh for Thanksgiving or ideal for freezing to get a head start on preparations for Christmas. Past auctions have included red velvet cakes, pecan pies and Mississippi mud cakes, Italian
