Summary

Chief Deputy Mario Vidaurri reported the Parmer County Jail was holding 28 inmates (six from Lubbock County, 22 Parmer County) and the Court approved changes to the sheriff's office credit-card limits while Sheriff Geske was absent.

In the sheriff's absence, Chief Deputy Mario Vidaurri told the Commissioners that the Parmer County Jail was housing 28 inmates, six of whom were from Lubbock County and 22 were from Parmer County. Vidaurri presented proposed changes to credit-card limits for the Sheriff's Office to support jail operations and other departmental needs.

Commissioner Kenny White moved to approve the adjusted credit-card limits for the Sheriff's Office; Commissioner Kirk Frye seconded and the motion passed by majority vote. The meeting record notes the change in limits and that supporting documentation was attached, but the transcript does not record the specific new limit amounts or the rationale detail beyond operational needs.

Sheriff Geske was not present at the meeting and did not comment on the record; county staff will implement the approved limit changes per standard procurement and fiscal controls.
