Summary
In a routine session, the Limestone County court approved a mass-gathering permit, an interlocal prisoner-housing agreement with Madison County, a road-use agreement with CAPCO, a LaSalle easement and a Soil and Water Stewardship Week proclamation; all items passed by voice vote.
The Limestone County court approved several routine agenda items during its session, including a mass-gathering permit, interlocal agreement, road-use contract, a property easement and a conservation proclamation.
On a motion and second, the court approved placement of a budget item the presiding officer described as $1,013,000 to be applied toward a precinct/judge's salary. The court then approved a mass-gathering application submitted by a local riders group after the sheriff reviewed the application and expressed no objections.
The court took item 11 off the table to continue consideration of court-appointed attorneys and later passed a measure to increase compensation for appointed counsel in mental-health cases (see separate article).
Separately, the court approved a road-use agreement with CAPCO for work near Highway 14; county staff reported that contractor activity on county roads (items referenced as '405, 406, and 456') had not caused problems. The court also approved a state interlocal agreement with Madison County to house prisoners and granted an easement to LaSalle to allow access for a new maintenance area and related facilities.
The court read and approved a proclamation declaring April 25 through 05/06/2026 as Texas Soil and Water Stewardship Week, emphasizing conservation of soil and water resources. Each item carried on a motion, a second and a voice vote; the transcript records ‘‘aye’’ votes with no roll-call tallies.
The court adjourned after completing the agenda.
