At-a-glance: motions and votes from Crockett council meeting, July 20, 2026
Summary
Council approved minutes of July 6, moved the August meeting date, directed staff to include a 10% COLA and several capital purchases in the draft FY2027 budget, recalled a previous 'text 21' motion to new business and added the swimming-pool item to the next budget meeting.
The Crockett City Council recorded several formal actions July 20 during its budget workshop and regular meeting.
- Approval of July 6 special-session minutes: Motion moved by speaker 5, seconded by speaker 6; Mayor called the vote and the motion carried.
- Meeting date change: Council approved moving the August 17 council meeting to August 24 to align with the budget calendar; motion moved by speaker 6, seconded and carried.
- Budget direction (major motion): Council moved to include a 10% COLA for all employees, adopt a tax-rate increase of 0.0796 (fixed rate for modeling), and proceed with procurement planning for a street sweeper, purchase of fire hose, the police rifle package and clarifier procurement/funding; motion was moved, seconded and carried. The transcript records the motion and that it "carries," but does not contain a roll-call tally by name.
- New business: Council voted to place a previously discussed 'text 21' item back on the agenda for further discussion and to add a swimming-pool funding discussion to the next budget meeting; both motions were carried.
Staff will prepare draft materials and notices consistent with those directions for public review prior to the August budget hearings.
