Carroll County courthouse(s) main topic of HD91 legislative forums

Incumbent Bryan King (R-Green Forest) is being challenged by David Stoppel (D-Eureka Springs) in House District 91 (candidates pictured right courtesy of Harrison Daily Times). The two met twice last week to discuss their position on various issues -- once in Green Forest and once in Berryville.

Republican County Judge Richard Williams has proposed constructing a new courthouse on the edge of Berryville. The county now has two courthouses: one in Berryville and one in Eureka Springs. The courthouse issue was the main topic of both meetings. Today's Harrison Daily Times has more.
