Grayson County Board Of Supervisors 6/11/2026

The Grayson County Board of Supervisors held their regular monthly meeting on June 11, 2026. A significant portion of the meeting focused on community concerns regarding potential data center developments in the county. Speakers urged the board to proactively review zoning ordinances and consider a moratorium to thoughtfully plan for such industrial projects, highlighting issues like energy demand, water consumption, environmental impacts, and limited long-term economic benefits. The board clarified that no data center proposals had been received yet but acknowledged the importance of being prepared. Additionally, the board approved the fiscal year 2027 county budget totaling approximately $33.5 million. Discussions also covered procurement decisions related to public safety apparatus, including the cost-effectiveness of remounting ambulances versus purchasing new vehicles, with remounts costing about $90,000 compared to $370,000 for new ambulances. The board also reviewed small purchase procedures to ensure compliance with state procurement laws. Other topics included large item pickup services and community events, but no new contracts or vendor selections were announced during the meeting.
