Default Brownwood Water Tower

I opened the Brownwood camera to see the Christmas Tree. Too my surprise, there is a new Water Tower behind the tree in the same place as the old water tower. I can't see from the camera angle if they replaced the Windmill.

I thought replacing the Water Tower and the Windmill was still being discussed. I saw nothing regarding a final decision in the news.

Glad it's back. This is why I'm thankful the Developers run the show.

with funding to come from residents living south of County Road 466. That figure set off a firestorm of criticism, with members of the Project Wide Advisory Committee scrambling for a more palatable solution.

Good quoting skills...darn shame it doesn't make your statement correct.

"much to my surprise". That's frigging hilarious. Some people just want to be involved in everything. And how does this effect you, asking for a friend.
