The Salado Village Voice newspaper was founded by the late Dayton Kelly with the first edition on February 17, 1979. 

The newspaper has seen four decades of service to the Village of Salado. 

For more than three of those decades, Tim and Marilyn Fleischer have been at the helm of the Salado Village Voice.

Tiffany Schreiner’s The Legend of the Cosmic Cowgirl is  what she calls “a poetic tale for all ages of the rowdy, resilient and pioneering spirit.” 

Salado Water Supply Corporation has issued a temporary moratorium on any new or amended water service agreements and developments.

Village administrator Don Ferguson will retire on Dec. 31. He informed Mayor Michael Coggin and the board of aldermen in an email at about 10 a.m. Aug. 7.

He intended to announce his retirement at the Aug. 3 board meeting which was canceled due to lack of a quorum.

“It has been an honor and a privilege for me, and I appreciate the opportunity to serve you and our community in this capacity,” Ferguson stated in his letter to aldermen.

Salado Water Supply Corporation has moved into Stage 3 Water Restrictions of its Drought Contingency Plan, which requires customers to reduce the number of days and times they water outside to one day per week.

Odd addresses may water between the hours of midnight and 10 a.m. and 8 p.m.-midnight on Tuesdays only.

Even address may water between the hours of midnight and 10 a.m. and 8 p.m.-midnight on Wednesdays only.

Village of Salado aldermen, on a split vote July 6, directed village administrator Don Ferguson to change language in a design agreement and put design work out for bid on a $2 million Royal Street Improvement Project.
