Commissioners approve contract to buy 310‑acre Guadalupe River Ranch, contingent on counsel sign‑off
Summary
The court voted Jan. 27 to enter a purchase contract for approximately 310 acres at 605 FM 474 (the Guadalupe River Ranch), to be paid from Proposition A funds, contingent on final review and sign‑off by general counsel.
Kendall County Commissioners on Jan. 27 voted to enter a farm‑and‑ranch contract to purchase about 310 acres near Boerne (605 FM 474), commonly referred to as the Guadalupe River Ranch, using Proposition A funds. The vote authorizes the county judge to execute documents once general counsel completes final edits to the purchase contract.
General counsel told the court that attorneys were completing a final round of contract amendments and expected the final draft to be ready quickly. Commissioners instructed that the purchase be contingent on counsel’s approval of the final language; the motion carried 5–0.
County staff and counsel said they expect to circulate the final contract and obtain signatures without further substantive court delay. The court did not provide purchase price details in the open session materials but described the motion as consistent with the court’s prior direction to pursue the acquisition and use Proposition A proceeds for property purchases.
