Llano County commissioners approve consent agenda, appointments, proclamation and small appropriations; outdoor burning discussion tabled
Summary
The court unanimously approved the consent agenda and several actions — including a proclamation for Child Abuse Prevention Month, a bond for a deputy, a $2,000 line of credit for prisoner transport, a $400 library donation, an appointment to ESD #1, and a historical medallion marker — and tabled discussion on outdoor burning. No executive session was held.
The Llano County Commissioners Court handled routine business and several discrete actions during its March 24 regular session.
The court approved the consent agenda (minutes, bids, financial reports, interlocal/agreements and monthly reports) on a motion by Commissioner Linda Raschke, seconded by Commissioner Jerry Don Moss. The motion passed unanimously.
Key actions taken by unanimous vote:
- Approved a proclamation declaring April 2025 as National Child Abuse Prevention Month (motion: Commissioner Jerry Don Moss; second: Commissioner Linda Raschke).
- Approved a Western Surety Company bond for Genesi Murphy to serve as a deputy in the Sheriff’s Office (motion: Commissioner Linda Raschke; second: Commissioner Peter Jones).
- Established a $2,000 line of credit with Texas Independent Bank for prisoner transport expenses, including meals and emergencies (motion: Commissioner Linda Raschke; second: Commissioner Brent Richards).
- Accepted a $400 donation from Antoinette G. Harding to the Library Donation Fund for the Kingsland Library (motion: Commissioner Jerry Don Moss; second: Commissioner Linda Raschke).
- Appointed Larry Burdine to the Emergency Service District #1 Board effective March 24, 2025 through Dec. 31, 2025, filling the seat of retiring board member Jerry Clinesmith (motion: Commissioner Peter Jones; second: Commissioner Linda Raschke).
- Approved the Llano County Art Association’s application for a Local Historical Medallion Marker at 503 Bessemer Avenue in Llano (motion: Commissioner Jerry Don Moss; second: Commissioner Linda Raschke).
The court tabled Agenda Item 4 — prohibiting or restricting outdoor burning in Llano County — after a motion by Commissioner Linda Raschke and a second from Commissioner Jerry Don Moss; the motion to table passed unanimously, postponing any further action.
The court recorded that no public participants had signed up to comment and noted that several items listed for potential executive session were not taken into closed session. The court recessed at 9:50 a.m., resumed at 10:02 a.m., listed a workshop on proposed subdivision regulations and adjourned at 11:57 a.m. Judge Ron Cunningham presided and County Clerk Cecilia McClintock attested the minutes.
