Caldwell County authorizes staff to pursue incentives for Project Chestnut after closed session
Summary
After an executive session on multiple economic-development projects, commissioners authorized county representatives to pursue incentives for Project Chestnut as discussed in closed session.
Following a closed executive session held under Texas Government Code Section 551.87 for economic-development negotiations, the Caldwell County Commissioners Court on Oct. 22 authorized county staff and designated representatives to pursue incentives for Project Chestnut as discussed in the closed session.
The judge asked for a motion in open court to allow “GS and P” (county representatives named in executive session) to pursue the incentive package discussed privately. Commissioner Theriault moved the action and Commissioner Horn seconded; the court approved the motion by voice vote.
Court minutes record that no action was taken on Project Wingspan or Project Garden in open court; only Project Chestnut received post‑session authorization to proceed with incentive discussions. The court did not disclose the substantive terms discussed during the closed session in open court.
