Callahan County Commissioners Approve Consent Agenda, Monthly Komatsu Invoice, Maintain Burn Ban and Approve Law Enforcement Grant Resolution

Callahan County Commissioners Court approved routine business items, including the consent agenda, a monthly Komatsu invoice, maintaining the burn ban and a resolution to apply for a law-enforcement grant, during its Aug. 11 session. The court considered three sets of earlier minutes and then approved the consent agenda covering payment of approved bills and payroll ending July 30 (paid Aug. 6). Commissioner Windham moved to approve the consent agenda; Commissioner McGowan seconded the motion and the court voted unanimously in favor. The court approved a monthly invoice from Komatsu for ongoing project work and approved leaving the county burn ban in effect. On grant business, the court approved a resolution related to an SP22 grant that would support law-enforcement and the district attorney’s offices; the judge described the item as authorizing the county to apply for the grant. Why it matters: These items are routine but necessary for county operations—approving payroll and vendor invoices keeps services and projects moving; maintaining the burn ban preserves public-safety restrictions during the declared period; approving a grant resolution allows staff to pursue external funding. All routine approvals were made by motion; the court recorded no opposition. Ending: The meeting adjourned at 9:52 a.m. following approval of the final agenda items.
