Grayson County BOS Budget Work Session 5/28/2026

The Grayson County Board of Supervisors held a budget work session on May 28, 2026, focusing primarily on financial oversight and budget planning. Key procurement-related discussions included reviewing the check register to better understand expenditures, particularly distinguishing between general fund spending and grant-funded disbursements such as those related to hurricane damage and small business grants. The board discussed the ongoing transfer of approximately $150,000 annually from the general fund to cover deficits in the county's water fund, noting the need for a public hearing to consider a proposed water rate increase to offset costs. Additionally, the board approved the school budget totaling over $31 million, including county contributions and debt service. There was also mention of potential future capital improvement projects and grant opportunities, with an emphasis on careful budget tracking and public communication. No contract awards or vendor selections were explicitly detailed, but the session highlighted fiscal management practices and upcoming procurement considerations related to water infrastructure and grant administration.
