Grimes County approves pay adjustment for tax assessor-collector position
Summary
Grimes County Commissioners Court approved an hourly pay adjustment for tax assessor-collector position 6,032 to $18.6591, effective the next payroll date of Aug. 9, 2025, following an executive session under Texas Government Code §551.074.
Grimes County Commissioners Court on Aug. 6 approved an hourly pay adjustment for a tax assessor-collector employee.
County Judge Joe Foust moved to “approve an adjustment to tax assessor collector position 6,032 … to $18.6591 per hour,” saying the change would be effective on the next payroll date, Aug. 9, 2025. The motion authorized the county auditor’s office, the human resources director and the elected official of that office to complete the necessary paperwork. Commissioner Chad Mallett seconded the motion.
The court made the motion after returning from executive session held under Texas Government Code §551.074 (personnel matters). A voice vote was taken; the presiding judge called for ayes and then said the motion carries. The court did not record a roll-call vote or a tally of individual votes in the transcript.
The action updates the hourly rate for the specific position number identified in the motion and directs county staff to implement the change through payroll and human resources procedures. No additional details about the employee, total budget impact or whether the adjustment was part of a wider pay scale change were provided in the public record of the meeting.
After the pay adjustment the court moved to adjourn. Court officials noted a separate 9 a.m. meeting scheduled for the following day to begin discussion of budgets.
