Residents present information and concerns about battery energy storage at Bandera County meeting
Summary
Five local presenters spoke during public comment about Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) coming to the Hill Country and the Hill Country Energy Sub‑Regional Planning Commission, raising information and concerns for the Commissioners' Court to note.
Five residents presented information and raised concerns about proposed Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) in the Hill Country during the Bandera County Commissioners' Court meeting on Nov. 13.
The transcript lists presenters Jeff Boerner, David Nash, Mike Wheeler, Alexandria Rudd and Audrey Boerner addressing the court under the public comment period reserved for item 8. According to the meeting minutes, the group discussed BESS projects and the Hill Country Energy Sub‑Regional Planning Commission; no formal court action on the subject is recorded in the minutes.
The court did not record a motion or vote connected to the presentations; the matter was received as public comment. The minutes do not include verbatim quotes or details of technical claims made by the presenters, nor do they record any staff response or next steps. Because the transcript only shows that the presenters addressed the court, the record does not indicate whether the issue will return to the court for policy or permitting decisions.
The county may receive additional materials or requests for follow‑up outside the minutes; interested residents should contact the County Clerk or the Commissioners' Court to ascertain whether the presenters submitted documents or asked for a specific next step.
