Brewster County to cover $12,071.13 (37%) for second 394th District Court assistant
Summary
The Brewster County Commissioners approved a 37% county cost share totaling $12,071.13 to fund a second assistant for the 394th District Court; the new assistant began work March 10, 2025, the court was told.
The Brewster County Commissioners Court voted March 11 to pay 37% of the cost to fund a second assistant in the 394th District Court, a county share totaling $12,071.13. Judge Greg P. Henington presented payroll calculations for the position and District Judge Monty Kimball said the assistant began work March 10, 2025.
Commissioner Sara Allen Colando moved to approve Brewster County's 37% cost share in accordance with the formula the court uses for judicial personnel; Commissioner Ruben Ortega seconded. The motion passed by a 4-0 vote (Commissioner William "Mo" Morrow was absent).
Why it matters: The payment is a recurring payroll obligation that increases county personnel costs; Commissioners approved the share as part of routine personnel funding. The motion recorded the precise county liability of $12,071.13 for the position.
The court recorded no amendments or conditions to the approval. The next formal financial steps would follow standard payroll and budget processes managed by the Comptroller and Treasurer.
