If all goes as planned, efforts in Barton County may offer a blueprint. The county commission has tapped economic development funds and other resources to help housing developments in three communities. "If we were to announce one housing development in one city, it would be a big deal," Commissioner Shawn Hutchinson said. "In this case,…...
