No November Elections
This year, the NPGCD had three (3) Board of Directors’ positions up for election. In order to run, a candidate must be a resident and a registered voter in the precinct that the person desires to represent. The next District election was going to be held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024 to fill the vacancy in Lipscomb County (Precinct 7), Texas, as well as for the officers in Ochiltree (Precinct 6), Texas, Hansford and Hutchinson Counties (Precinct 5), Texas.
The incumbents, Bob Zimmer of Precinct 5 Hutchinson and Hansford Counties and Daniel Krienke Precinct 6 Ochiltree County, did not draw opponents prior to the August 19, 2024 filing deadline.
Gene Born of Precinct 7 Lipscomb County retired in February, so his seat was vacant. Fortunately for the District, his son Clinton Born decided to throw his hat in the ring, and he too did not draw an opponent before the filing deadline.
The Board Members and their respective precinct are as follows:
- Allan Frerich – Dallam County
- Mark Howard – Hartley County
- Justin Crownover – Sherman County
- Harold Grall – Moore County
- Bob Zimmer – Hutchinson & Hansford County
- Danny Krienke – Ochiltree County
- Clinton Born – Lipscomb County
The Board’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to, adopting and monitoring the district’s annual budget, setting an annual tax rate and other fees to fund the budget, setting district goals, developing and implementing the district’s management plan, adopting and enforcing district rules, ensuring the district operates within its statutory authority, and developing and implementing policies and other orders.
