County accepts donation of high‑flow well for firefighting in Precinct 4 via MOU with physician
Summary
Victoria County approved an MOU allowing use of a donated high‑flow water well and one acre of land from Dr. John McNeil for potential firefighting and extinguishing measures in the Cedars Creek Ranch Estate subdivision (Precinct 4).
Victoria County Commissioners Court approved a memorandum of understanding permitting the county to use a donated high‑flow 6‑inch water well and one acre of associated property from Dr. John McNeil for firefighting and extinguishing measures in the Cedars Creek Ranch Estate subdivision in Precinct 4.
County staff said the donation is intended for fire prevention and will require site work, including replanting and gravel access, and that the MOU provides temporary authority for the county to place gravel and make the well accessible while final platting and paperwork are completed. Commissioners described the donation as generous and neighborly, moved to approve the MOU, and the motion passed by voice vote.
The MOU provides the county temporary use while staff complete required property and administrative steps; commissioners directed Precinct 4 staff to sign the documents as needed.
