Council tables Denco Area 911 board nomination, asks staff for details on commitments
Summary
Council members discussed a request from Denco Area 911 to nominate a municipal representative under Chapter 772 of the Texas Health and Safety Code, asked staff to provide a summary of time and duties, and voted to table the nomination until the next meeting.
Colin presented a letter from the Denco Area 911 District that asked participating municipalities to nominate a municipal representative to the district board of managers. He cited Chapter 772 of the Texas Health and Safety Code as the governing authority for jointly appointed members.
Colin said nominations are typically current or former elected officials but that there are no formal prerequisites. The deadline for written notification of council action to the district office was stated as 5 p.m. on 05/29/2026; Colin asked council members whether they wanted to nominate someone now or wait for a slate of nominees to be published. Council members asked staff to return with an executive summary describing the time commitments and responsibilities for a board member. A motion to table the matter until the next meeting was made and approved.
Speakers in the record include Colin and several council members who requested additional information from staff; no nomination was submitted tonight.
