ECTOR COUNTY, Texas — The Ector County Utility District has elected a new board member, Tommy Brown, following a meeting on Monday.
Brown will now serve as the treasurer for the board and Stephanie Shaw will serve as the Board President, after Tommy Ervin recently resigned last Wednesday.
Former President of ECUD, Ervin, said he believes Brown will be a good fit for the Board.
"The new board member Tommy Brown come on and he is a very capable person of what the ECUD Board needs," Ervin said. "He's been in West Odessa probably 60 plus years. The big picture is to get people in West Odessa access to water, that's the big picture and that is what the Board of Directors is working on."
Brown officially began his job as board treasurer Tuesday following Monday's meeting.
