Property owners to self‑fund repairs to CR 406; county schedules southern road work
Summary
The court approved a property‑owner proposal to self‑fund repairs to County Road 406 and scheduled repairs for southern county roads including CR 309 and CR 315 to begin within two weeks; a resident raised concerns about six months of neglect.
Brooks County commissioners voted to accept a proposal from property owners to self‑fund repairs to County Road 406 at the Dec. 12 meeting. The motion to approve the owners' plan passed unanimously, allowing the county to accept privately funded repair work for the road.
The court also discussed scheduling repairs for County Roads 309 and 315 in southern Brooks County. Road & Bridge Assistant Foreman Juan Azocar explained how the repairs are performed and the court said work would begin within the next two weeks in the precinct. Resident Elisa Torres addressed the court, expressing concerns about neglect over the last six months and asking for scraping and tree cutting to restore passability; the court took the scheduling action but made no additional policy changes during the session.
No dollar amounts or contracts for the owner‑funded CR 406 work were specified in the minutes; follow‑up will be required to document scope, timelines and whether permits or county oversight conditions apply.
