History of Bob Lutts Fulshear/Simonton Branch Library
Bob Lutts Fulshear/Simonton Branch Library opened in May 1998, the third branch voted for in the 1989 bond election. The land for the library site had been the Precinct 4 headquarters, and was offered for the library site by the precinct commissioner, Bob Lutts, who had taken on the task of seeing the library project through. The Fulshear City Council requested that the county name the library for Commissioner Lutts. (This library is now in Precinct 3.).
