Lamar County commissioners will be working hard in the coming week to repair county roads damaged during the recent winter storm. “We will have our plates full,” Lonnie Layton said. “We were not expecting this.”

Lamar County commissioners agree that county roads need work, but there are differing ideas about how they can be helped.

County Road 1200 in Red River County will now have speed limit and no passing signs following action by the commissioners this week.

A reinvestment zone for the use of a solar farm was approved by the Lamar County commissioners at their regular meeting Monday.
