Jack County court approves payments, consent‑agenda items, and routine law‑enforcement listings
Summary
The Commissioners Court approved payment of accounts and a multi‑item consent agenda including a $2,500 credit‑card limit for the county treasurer, sale of a bulletproof vest for $500, an MOU with Helen Farabee Centers, and approved lists of sheriff's bail‑bond and wrecker‑rotation applicants.
The Commissioners Court of Jack County approved routine business during its Dec. 22, 2025 meeting, including payment of accounts and a multi‑item consent agenda.
County Judge Brian Keith Umphress moved to approve all accounts and claims submitted; Commissioner Terry Ward seconded, and the motion passed unanimously (5–0). The court also approved the consent agenda on a motion by Commissioner Henry Birdwell, seconded by Commissioner Amy Salazar; that motion likewise passed unanimously (5–0). Consent items recorded in the minutes include approval of the Dec. 8, 2025 minutes, acceptance of the auditor's monthly report, and administrative items: a credit card limit increase to $2,500 for County Treasurer Brad Campsey; approval of the sale of Joey Highfill’s bulletproof vest to the City of Jacksboro for $500; deeming an old wooden filing cabinet from the Constable's office salvage; acceptance of Extension activity and travel reports for agents Alinda Cox and Taylor K. Chapa; approval of an MOU between the Jack County Judge and Helen Farabee Centers for substance abuse services; and official bonds and oaths for Douglas Angell.
Separately on the agenda the court approved the 2026 Sheriff’s Office bail bond applicants (motion by Commissioner Terry Ward, seconded by Commissioner Henry Birdwell) and approved the 2026 Sheriff's Office rotation wrecker applicants (motion by Commissioner Henry Birdwell, seconded by Commissioner Gary Oliver). Both motions passed unanimously (5–0).
The minutes record these actions as routine approvals; they do not include staff presentations or public debate on the financial or policy implications of the items, nor do they specify any changes to budgets beyond the credit card limit increase.
