Ty's Take

The new police building's finally moving off the drawing board, which means someone's going to start hammering nails and running wire in a town that's seen its fair share of construction delays. Bringing in an El Paso outfit makes sense on the numbers, but it's worth watching how the work actually moves forward and whether local folks get some of the hours. Meanwhile, the high school seniors are counting down to what comes next, and the community's doing its part to make sure they've got something solid to walk toward. That's how small towns work, really: the new buildings go up, the kids move on, and the people who stick around are the ones who made sure both things happened right.
