The Jim Wells County Commissioners Court completed a series of votes on Sept. 26, 2025. Key outcomes included:

- Proclamation: The court adopted a proclamation designating October 2025 as National 4‑H Week in Texas (motion carried by voice vote). Rogelio Mercado and youth leaders from the county 4‑H council presented the proclamation.

- Financing: The court approved a resolution to pursue financing through Government Capital for the purchase of two refuse trucks to replace aging equipment (motion carried).

- Resolution: The court adopted a resolution declaring Sept. 10 as Free Speech and Civil Discourse Day in Jim Wells County (presenter Mackenzie Flick; motion carried by voice vote).

- Grant certifications: Auditor certified receipt of $50,000 from the Ed Rochelle Foundation for the sheriff's department (for motor vehicles) and $105,000 capital lease loan proceeds to Road & Bridge Precinct 1; both certifications and the associated budget amendments were approved by vote.

- Donations and permits: Auditor certified $1,400 in donations to the sheriff's department (approved), and the court approved temporary alcohol sales for two vendors at the county fair, subject to TABC requirements.

- Ambulance grant application (HB 3000): Discussion about hiring Border Affairs LLC to prepare a rural ambulance service grant application led to requests for additional details on contractor performance and long‑term operating costs; the court tabled the resolution and asked staff to gather further information.

- Routine: The court approved payroll and bills (with specified fund exceptions), accepted the county treasurer's and auditor's monthly reports, and adjourned.

Most routine items were approved by voice vote; budget and tax items were adopted by recorded, unanimous vote. Where the record shows detailed tallies, the court read votes into the record and certified unanimous passage.
