The Brazos County Commissioners Court approved a fiscal year 2425 budget amendment (listed in the transcript as 53.0.01) during a special called session held Dec. 2, 2025. The presiding officer introduced the item and a motion and second were recorded; the court voted verbally and the presiding officer said, “The ayes have it.”

Why it matters: Budget amendments change how county funds may be allocated or spent in the coming fiscal year and can affect departmental operating authority and program funding. The record provided in the transcript does not include a fiscal breakdown for amendment 53.0.01.

What happened: The presiding officer announced the first agenda item was the approval of fiscal year 2425 budget amendments identified in the record as 53.0.01. A motion and a second were made; when asked for discussion none was offered and the court voted in favor. No vote tally or names of movers and seconders were provided in the transcript.

Details and clarifications: The transcript identifies the amendment by the label “53 point 0.01.” The record does not specify who moved or seconded the motion, the dollar amounts affected by the amendment, or which departments or programs it concerns. Those specifics were not stated in the public portion of the transcript and are recorded here as not specified.

The court proceeded to the next agenda items after announcing the amendment passed. The court subsequently recessed into an executive session; no further action on this budget amendment is recorded in the transcript.
