The Fannin County Board of Commissioners sans Mr. Morris (he was supposed to be "out of town") voted for a pouring license for Fannin Co. to enable capturing the $40 million dollar contract.


The commission chairman explained how he wrested with the decision because he had promised several family members and friends he would not vote for a pouring license. The unemployment statistics swayed him.
We're at 7.1 unemployment rate (Union is highest and it's totally dry) and expected to climb to 9%.
There will be a hearing next week and then it will be passed before the next commissioners come into office.
