Ward County court approves bills, officers' reports, tax-rate calculations and a set of administrative actions
Summary
In a series of unanimous votes, the Commissioners' Court approved payment of county bills, officers' reports, tax-rate calculation assignment, contracts for tax collection, vehicle upgrades for constables up to $15,000, surplus-property disposition and a Hotel/Motel tax distribution agreement with Monahans.
The Court handled multiple routine administrative items by unanimous vote. Motions included approval of the county's bills (moved by Commissioner Eddie Nelms, seconded by Commissioner Billy Redmon), approval of officers' reports (Commissioner Larry Hanna, seconded by Commissioner Guy Thames) and appointment of the tax assessor-collector to calculate the no-new-revenue and voter-approval tax rates (motion by Commissioner Eddie Nelms, seconded by Commissioner Larry Hanna).
The Court also approved contracts for tax collection services, authorized vehicle upgrades for Constable Precincts 1 and 4 up to $15,000, declared property at the community center and county barns as surplus and authorized disposition, and approved an agreement with the City of Monahans for Hotel/Motel tax distribution for 2025–2026. All motions were recorded as unanimously adopted; the minutes do not supply contract dollar amounts or further detail for several items on the public record.
