Tunica County board adds and adopts governor's winter-storm proclamation
Summary
Board members voted to add an emergency proclamation from the governor to the agenda and then adopted a proclamation related to Winter Storm 2026; the board recessed until Tuesday, Feb. 17 at 4 p.m.
The Tunica County Board added an emergency proclamation from the governor to the agenda and voted to adopt a proclamation related to Winter Storm 2026, the transcript shows.
During routine business a board member asked to add "emergency proclamation" to the agenda; the motion was made, seconded and carried. Item 8.6 then was introduced "to consider governor's proclamation for winter storm 2026." A motion and a second were recorded and the board voted "Aye," with the clerk noting the motion carried.
The transcript does not include a text of the proclamation, details of any local measures triggered by the proclamation, or whether the proclamation authorizes county expenditures. The meeting record similarly does not show a recorded yea/nay roll-call by name; the outcome is recorded in the minutes as adopted.
After the votes the board moved to recess until Tuesday, Feb. 17 at 4:00 p.m. and the motion carried with no recorded opposition in the transcript. The transcript includes brief closing remarks about a signed document and a staff member's travel arrangements to Washington, D.C.
The board did not state whether the proclamation imposes local emergency procedures or activates county resources; those details are not specified in the meeting record.
