(Editor’s note: Belinda Hillhouse, who has served as a west side city council member for the past three years, but who is not running for reelection, sent this as a letter to the editor. But we thought this was great information for anyone in Rockdale who is thinking of running for city council because she lays out what will be expected of you. Thank you, Belinda, for serving our city and for this information. K.W.C.)
Texans have a way with words. Here are some typical Texas sayings you may have heard or said yourself.
The Central Texas Council of Government (CTCOG) is a misnomer as the agency is really not a governmental agency. The CTCOG is more like a governmental assistance group, formed by law almost 70 years ago to help local government provide so many of the needed community services. The CTCOG consists of seven counties in Central Texas and Milam County is one of the charter members. The officers of the CTCOG are elected from within the group and the primary offices are located in Belton.
