Court fixes clerical error in tax-abatement guidelines sunset provision
Summary
Willacy County Commissioners Court approved a clerical correction to the sunset date in the guidelines governing tax abatement agreements (Resolution No. 2674) to make the effective and expiration dates consistent; staff characterized the action as a correction rather than a substantive amendment.
County legal staff explained a clerical error in the language of Resolution No. 2674 governing tax abatement guidelines and criteria: a paragraph as written would have made the guidelines effective after their stated expiration date. Staff recommended inserting corrected language for section 9 (sunset provision) to ensure the guidelines remain effective for the intended two-year period.
As the attorney explained, the motion is a clerical correction and not an amendment to substantive guidelines: "It's just a correction," the attorney said while noting the volume and page reference that will be appended to the corrected record. Commissioners moved, seconded and carried the correction, and the record shows staff will include the volume and page number (Volume 230, page 50) in the corrected document.
