Commission sets 2026 work-session time after split votes and chairman tiebreaker
Summary
After a split vote and a chairman tiebreak, the Commission approved a 9 a.m. schedule for 2026 work sessions and adopted the board's 2026 meeting calendar and related resolution.
Commissioners debated the 2026 work-session start time during the Dec. 2 meeting. Commissioner Jason Frost moved to schedule work sessions at 4 p.m.; Commissioner Damon Hoyte seconded. The motion received two yays (Frost, Hoyte) and two nays (Vice-Chairman Timothy Biddle and Commissioner Gerald Douglas). Chairman Charles Coffey cast the tiebreaking vote against the 4 p.m. motion, and it failed.
Commissioner Gerald Douglas then moved to set work sessions at 9 a.m., seconded by Vice-Chairman Biddle. That motion also split the board along the same lines; Chairman Coffey cast the tiebreaking vote in favor of the 9 a.m. schedule, and the motion carried. The Commission then adopted the 2026 calendar resolution formally adopting the schedule and posting rules for meeting locations.
The board also approved the county's 2026 employee holiday calendar by unanimous vote. Commissioners discussed public availability and employee convenience when weighing times for work sessions but did not change the times for regular monthly meetings, which will continue to rotate as published.
