Commissioners Court Regular Session 05/26/2026

The Hunt County Commissioners Court held a regular session on May 26, 2026, addressing several procurement and budget-related matters. Key procurement discussions included approval of a land purchase for a new county barn in Precinct 2, with the property priced at $250,000 against an appraisal of $381,000, and authorization for the county judge to finalize closing documents. The court also approved transitioning from the PubWorks software to GWorks for maintenance and operations management, with a capped migration cost of $1,500. Additionally, the court approved an interlocal agreement with the city of Wolf City for road repairs, funded by the city’s taxes, and established a no-through truck sign on County Road 3703 to protect local infrastructure. Variance requests related to road frontage for two Encore substation projects in Precincts 1 and 4 were denied after discussion. Budget amendments, accounts payable, payroll, and personnel matters were approved. Public testimony included concerns about a proposed 287g ICE agreement and its implications, but no direct procurement action was taken on that topic during the meeting.
