Summary

The court approved acceptance of a Chamber of Commerce donation to the sheriff's office; the transcript records both $750 (reported by the donor) and $780 (read by the presiding official) during the agenda motion. The motion passed unanimously.

A donation intended for the sheriff's office was placed before the court and accepted by unanimous voice vote.

A speaker identified with the sheriff's office reported that a check had been presented “in the amount of $750” from the Brownwood area Chamber of Commerce proceeds. When the presiding official read the motion the amount was recorded as $780; commissioners moved, seconded and approved acceptance of the donation. The transcript records both figures, $750 and $780, during the exchange.

The presenter described the funds as proceeds from a law‑enforcement event organized by the Chamber and requested authorization to accept the donation. The court approved the donation by general assent; no further conditions or restrictions on the funds were discussed on the record.
