Ward County approves agreement with Winkler County to house inmates
Summary
On March 24 the Commissioners' Court unanimously approved an agreement with neighboring Winkler County to house inmates; the minutes do not include contract length or payment terms.
The Court approved an intercounty agreement to house inmates with Winkler County on a motion by Commissioner Larry Hanna, seconded by Commissioner Guy Thames; the approval was unanimous. The minutes record the agreement's approval but do not provide contract terms, duration, or cost per inmate.
County Judge Greg Holly and the commissioners did not record discussion of terms or a vote tally beyond noting unanimous adoption. The minutes list this as a routine administrative action; county staff are the likely contacts for contract execution and record-filing, though the docket does not name an implementing official.
