Several groups propose improvement plans to 4B sales tax board
WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — The 4B sales tax in Wichita Falls is meant to help fund improvements to life throughout the city. In a meeting on Thursday, June 5, the board overseeing those tax funds met to hear the different proposals they can put some of the money toward. One of the proposals from the day's meeting was an improvement to the area around the falls off of I-44. The presentation by Russell Schreiber from Public Works, along with a representative from Garver in Fort Worth, proposed improvements such as new parking areas around the falls and new methods for pumping water through the feature, thereby enhancing its overall appearance. 'That's the landmark of the city of Wichita Falls,' Schreiber said. 'We really like that thing to operate more than it has been in the past, as well as maybe probably to try to improve the overall water quality. I mean, it is the landmark of the city of Wichita Falls.' Another proposal was to improve the tennis facilities at Hamilton Park. Director of Falls Town Tennis, Michael Turner, proposed improving the facilities with new covered tennis courts, which would allow the courts to hold more tournaments. It's a feature Turner says would be a big economic opportunity. 'If we held a two-day tournament, it brings in $64,000 per tournament,' Turner said. 'We hold six of these a year currently. These tournaments are not full currently because of the facility that we have.' These were just a couple of the proposals brought to the board. Each one will be voted on before further steps can be taken to fine-tune the approved proposals. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

WSU faces 'strategic' staffing cuts after regents adopt pared-down budget
Jun. 5—Washington State University is likely to face personnel cuts in the coming weeks after the school's Board of Regents adopted a budget that includes a $17.1 million reduction in spending for the upcoming fiscal year. On Thursday, the Board of Regents unanimously adopted a budget that includes $1.3 billion in spending across all funds, and approximately $661.3 million in spending in core funds. The plan includes a 4.1% reduction in spending. "This plan represents the economic pressures public universities now face, all of us, and the bold direction we've chosen to take at Washington State University," President Elizabeth Cantwell said in a video update Wednesday. The focus will shift in the coming weeks to implementing cuts in most of the university's 41 units, though the cuts will not be across the board. Six units — the College of Arts and Sciences, the Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine, libraries, external affairs and government relations, research, and law enforcement — will not see any cuts under the plan, while the other 35 units may see cuts of up to 10% and will work over the next 30 days to formalize proposals to curb spending. According to Leslie Brunelli, the executive vice president and chief financial officer, more than 80% of the university's core funds budget is "tied up" in personnel spending. "So those are people at the other end of that, and we want to be very thoughtful about the loss of personnel," Brunelli said. "Some of those reductions will be made with vacant positions, but some will be people who are currently employed at Washington State." Brunelli said it's "a little bit too early" to know how many staff members could be impacted. "We have a ballpark, but I would really not feel comfortable sharing that until we know what that is," Brunelli said. "I don't want to create an agitation where it's not necessary." The staff reductions, however, are likely to be spread across the university, rather than focused on specific departments. The university, like many others in the country, has experienced turmoil in federal funding in recent months, although WSU's funding woes are compounded by the 1.5% across-the-board cut to higher education included in the recently passed state biennial budget. That translates to $9.9 million over the next two years, though the university also stands to lose other state funds. "We're pretty good at figuring out how to strategically take reductions and not harm academic core, not harm services to students," Cantwell said Thursday. The university, Cantwell said, is investing additional resources in student support services, and making other investments in the College of Arts and Sciences. "We have made it a priority to protect the student experience and student success," Provost Chris Riley-Tillman said. "That's our core, original mission, and it's one of our most important things, both existentially and fiscally." While students are not likely to notice many of the cuts and savings when they return to campus in the fall, they will see a 3.3% increase in tuition costs. The university, however, does not project an increase in the revenue received from tuition, as enrollment at Washington State, like many universities, has declined in recent years. The decline in enrollment, Riley-Tillman said, has a ripple effect, as cohorts of students work their way through the university. "As you get the dip down, and then you floor out and you start to go back up, you're now graduating large classes, and those very small classes from the subsequent COVID years are still in your system," Riley-Tillman said. "So this ends up being a five- or six-year recovery period." Since enrollment peaked during the 2019-2020 school year, the university has seen a 17% decline, and it is bracing for the potential for another decrease. "Truly, you don't know what the enrollment is until August when the students show up and pay their bills," Brunelli said. "There is something called the summer melt, and that happens for the first time, first-year students, our freshmen that come in the door, even transfers. But we also need to make sure our retention remains strong." As it navigated potential budgeting options, the university has modeled different scenarios over the past several months, Cantwell said during an interview Thursday. "There are a few places where we are investing," Cantwell said. "These are strategic ... cuts and additions, even in a year where we have to mostly reduce, we will make strategic investments so that we can do things like support the students that we have, make sure that they finish, and grow enrollment across the panorama of everybody who wants to come to us. Just sort of guardrails like that are in our thinking as we think about how we make these choices." The university, Brunelli said, has modeled what the potential impact of the loss of federal grants and indirect cost recoveries between 5% and 50% would be. Cantwell said the university has also modeled what impact cuts to the Department of Education would have on the school, particularly how cutting federal student aid will impact the ability of students to attend college. One silver lining from the session, Brunelli said, is that the state did not make cuts in the Washington College Grant, which many students rely on to help pay for school. The university also stands to see less impact from a potential decline in international students, as it is focused on students from Washington. Last week, the university announced the chancellor position for its Pullman campus would be dissolved, placing executive oversight of the campus back under the university president. "The president of the system, because I live in Pullman, can fully operate in that chancellor sort of role," Cantwell said. "So that's given us the opportunity to cut some costs there. We've combined offices, we've found some efficiencies there." Cantwell said she anticipates proposals for "kind of across-the-board" administrative cuts to be introduced in the coming weeks. "I'm guessing we're all asking ourselves, 'How do we do what we do at the administrative level a little bit more efficiently to deliver to results that we need to out of our offices?' " Cantwell said. "We need to walk the walk in addition to talking the talk. We can do what we need to do with less."

True Standard Distilling comes to downtown Frederick
One of the keys to True Standard Distilling's operations sits away from the shiny white quartz countertop of the new tasting room or the 500-gallon copper still that sits behind a glass wall nearby. In a corner of a back room of the distillery — which celebrated its grand opening on Frederick's North Carroll Street on May 29 — is a case of glass beakers, each labeled with a strip of blue tape. The beakers contain extracts pulled from various types of fruits and spices, which head distiller Kristian Naslund, co-owner Brian Allen, and their team use in creating the distillery's products. Each of the extracts — whether from orange, grapefruit, lime, peppercorn, ginger, cardamom, or other items — is made in-house, said Allen, who co-owns the business with his wife, Ashley. The products include silver rum, spiced rum, silver spiced rum, and dark spiced rum, as well as a vodka. 'We're a house of cane,' Allen said, with their drinks based around cane sugars. The silver spiced rum is especially good for light, refreshing summer drinks, Naslund said. 'We want to be able to appeal to anyone who walks in the door,' he said. The neighborhood near Frederick's East Street has a history of brewing and distilling, Allen said. He and Ashley looked at the building, a former antique store, several years ago when they were looking for a location, then came back to it in 2021, he said. They kept most of the exterior walls, but gutted almost everything else, took off the roof, put in new trusses, and rebuilt the front wall. It took about a year to design the new building, and about two years to construct, he said. Allen started distilling as a hobby about 15 years ago. He and Ashley have three children. Eventually, she told him, he needed to find another location for his hobby other than at their house, he said with a laugh. He said he most enjoys the art and craftsmanship of experimenting with chemistry to create different products. Naslund also started distilling as a hobby, and began working professionally in Colorado in 2008. He said he likes trying to improve on a technique developed a long time ago, as well as the people he comes in contact with. 'For me, it's the people and connections, he said. He said that when he met Allen, he showed Naslund what he had in mind, then let him go to work. About 90% of what they produce goes into old bourbon barrels to age, Allen said. The barrels are stacked along a rear wall of the distillery's back room. The rest goes into the spiced rum and other drinks. Rum is traditionally aged in barrels, and flavors are pulled out of the wood, Naslund said. Along with the tasting room in Frederick, they're also focusing on distribution to be able to sell their product outside the Frederick area, Allen said. The tasting room is about 1,500 square feet, while the building is about 9,000 square feet overall, he said. They currently have 11 employees, bur plan to eventually have 15 to 20, he said. They're looking for a good chef, but are currently coordinating with some food trucks to provide food options, he said. As the business continues to grow, both Allen and Naslund are enjoying making a living at what they love. 'Once you get into the hobby of distilling, it gets into your blood, literally and figuratively,' Allen said.
