Schleicher County extends local disaster declaration after winter storm
Summary
The Schleicher County Commissioners' Court voted Feb. 3 to extend a local disaster declaration tied to a winter storm two weeks earlier; the county action follows an initial state declaration by Gov. Greg Abbott and keeps county emergency authorities in place beyond the original seven-day period.
The Schleicher County Commissioners' Court on Feb. 3 approved an extension of the county's Declaration of Local Disaster for a public-health and safety emergency tied to a winter storm two weeks earlier. Commissioner Chris Meador moved to approve the extension and Commissioner Gary Gibson seconded; the motion passed.
The court's minutes record that Governor Greg Abbott previously included Schleicher County in a state disaster declaration related to the storm. The county's original local declaration is valid for seven days and requires an extension from the Commissioners' Court to remain in effect; the extension motion was the formal step taken at the special meeting. Commissioner Chris Meador introduced the motion, which the minutes record as: "Motion to approve and extend Schleicher County Declaration of Local Disaster for Public Health and Safety Emergency by Commissioner Chris Meador."
