The Brownfield Zoning Board of Adjustments was able to get the board together to listen to a resident’s request for a variance to build a carport on their property. The board heard from two parties the homeowner and his plans for the carport and the owner of the property next door. The home in question is on the corner of East Buckley Street and South Cedar Street, and using Google Maps the board was able to see the property.

Have you seen the movie Awakenings with Robin Williams? The movie came out in 1990 and is based on a true story about victims of an encephalitis epidemic that left people in a catatonic state.
