Summary
County Judge Rochelle Camacho announced a new county building that will house driver’s license services and other offices. County resource coordinators reported recent program activity and $68,294 in government funding delivered to residents through USDA, ACOG weatherization and aging programs.
Frio County will open a new multi-agency building that will house a driver’s license office offering renewals and photo IDs and several county and partner services, Frio County Judge Rochelle Camacho told commissioners during general discussion.
Camacho said the new driver’s license office will operate Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and that the building will also provide space for the community council, Justice of the Peace Precinct 2, Alamo Regional Transit (ART), Southwest Family Life (domestic violence services) and other county programs. The county judge thanked the City of Pearsall and county employees for assistance during the transition and said an opening date will be announced.
Separately, the judge’s office presented monthly program statistics and outcomes for county resource coordinator activity. County staff reported the following program tallies through February 2025: USDA home renovation program — 49 applications, 9 approvals, 4 completions; ACOG weatherization — 15 applications with one denied then appealed; appliance assistance — 44 applications with an estimated 12 households served. County staff reported $68,294 in government-funded services delivered to Frio County residents as of February 2025.
The judge encouraged residents to contact resource coordinators Grace Garza at the Dilley Annex and Gloria Benavides at the courthouse for assistance with programs. Commissioners praised the outreach and thanked county employees involved in the outreach and in the Pioneer Day event; commissioners also said county policy will not waive park fees because of damage and repair costs incurred during events.
No formal vote was required for these announcements; commissioners recognized a Frio County 4‑H leader and a youth exhibitor, who thanked the court for support.
