The Brazos County Commissioners Court approved the payment of claims as listed on the agenda during its Dec. 2, 2025 special called session. The presiding officer moved the item, a second was recorded, and the court voted in favor after no discussion was offered; the presiding officer said, “The ayes have it.”

Why it matters: Approval of claims authorizes county payments for goods, services or obligations and is an essential part of county fiscal operations. The transcript does not list the individual claims, dollar amounts, or the mover/seconder names.

What happened: Speaker 1 introduced agenda item 3, moved to approve payment of claims and recorded a second. With no discussion, the court voted by oral assent. The transcript does not provide an itemized claims list or vote tally.

Next steps: The transcript shows the court proceeded to other items and later entered an executive session; no additional public action on the claims item is recorded in this transcript.
