But the mayoral race isn’t the only thing on the ballot...there’s a and special election on the reallocation of sales tax being contemplated. updates This is a big issue for Huntsville, and one that has not been seen before. The City of Huntsville has been investigating it this year, as the Council was considering a variety of options to fund economic development. The Council ultimately voted on a 4B Sales Tax proposition for the ballot, which will allow the voters to decide. To do so confidently, the public needs to be equipped with the facts. The Council has announced a town hall meeting to be held this Tuesday, October 13, at 7 p.m. in the Huntsville Public Library Community Room (following the yoga class held in the room from 5:45-6:45 p.m.). City Manager Matt Benoit will lead the presentation, which will be an opportunity to review the proposition and how it would function if adopted by the voters.

In 1536 Cabeza de Vaca entered Mexico City after a harrowing journey that included six years in captivity among various indigenous groups. A survivor of the catastrophic Narvaez Expedition (1527) he returned with stories resulting in subsequent Spanish excursions searching for gold as well as rich descriptions of the natives and their way of life. The problem to arise from this was that de Vaca included valuable ethnographies of such groups in his account but he did not know where he was, making the identification of such groups difficult for modern scholars. In his dissertation, the late Alex D. Krieger utilized his personal knowledge of the geography and environment ofTexas to trace the route most likely traveled by de Vaca and his companions.
