Several years ago TXDOT purchased a home at Clark Street and FM 1314 to make way for the widening of that road. It was demolished back then. Another home piece of property was purchased next to the home. That piece that was purchased went to the front porch of the home that was on it. Since that time it has been vacant along with a mobile home behind it, Vandals broke windows, stripped wire and plumbing out of it and destroyed walls. Black mold was heavy with black mold. There was also an open septic tank and an in ground swimming pool. Montgomery County Environmental Health became involved as it turned to a health risk. However, the grant they had to level homes in the county that were abandon and vacant did not extend to homes that were in a flood plain. Commissioner Ed Rinehart set funds aside in his budget to help with this problem. Monday afternoon with a track hoe and dump trucks the house and mobile home were leveled and hauled off. The money will be recouped if and when the property is ever sold by the owner.
