The county has been in violation of the lease agreement for some time. Not only has the place had trash for long periods of time, there were even some incidents of owner's livestock being killed. The owners finally decided to terminate the lease for cause. Of course, the county, in their infinite wisdom is trying to force it back open - not trying to address the problems of the county regularly violating the lease agreement. -- Jim Sinclair (TX-ESA) TOS Life Member Kingsville, TX "The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them." - Albert Einstein
