Ward County court notes multi‑fund emergency but takes no action
Summary
At its Feb. 23, 2026 meeting in Monahans, the Ward County Commissioners' Court acknowledged an emergency affecting multiple county funds but did not adopt an emergency budget or take immediate action.
On Feb. 23, 2026, the Ward County Commissioners' Court recorded that "an emergency has arisen and a grave public necessity exists" affecting a broad set of county funds, including the General Fund, Road and Bridge Fund, Farm to Market Road Fund, several forfeiture and restitution funds, hospital medical benefits funds and employee medical benefits funds. The court did not adopt any budgetary changes at the meeting.
The emergency statement was entered on the agenda as a factual notice to the court; the record states explicitly that no action was taken during the session. The item did not include a motion to reallocate funds, nor did the court set a timeline for follow‑up during this meeting. Further action would require a subsequent agenda item or a specially called meeting.
