UPDATE – HERE IS A BETTER STORY: DERAILED! Georgetown City Council Votes To End Participation In Lone Star Rail District

Georgetown might back out of the Lone Star Rail District. Here is an excerpt from a story that appeared in the Austin-American Statesman on June 20:

Georgetown has been paying an annual $50,000 membership fee since 2006, but a majority of the city council decided last week to put together a resolution to cancel the membership. They will vote whether to pass the resolution at their next regular meeting on Tuesday.

If you don’t have a copy of the Statesman available, you can get more of the story on the Austin-Amercian Statesman’s premium website called statesman.com: Georgetown might pull out of Lone Star Rail District

Thank you to Susan Garry for bringing this to my attention.  – Stewart Dale Spencer
