Commissioner's Court Meeting 9 29 2026

The Gregg County Commissioners’ Court regular meeting was held September 29, 2026. The court approved several procurement and capital items, including an award under RFP 2026-20 to Advanced Roofing for the juvenile facility roof overlay project for $151,000; a Longview Print Shop contract for print services following review of three proposals; and copy-machine leases for multiple county departments, with funding available in the current budget. It also approved contracts to construct the agricultural extension facility (Hendrickson and ARC, RFP 2026-9) and the Precinct 3 service center (Watson Commercial Construction, RFP 2026-16), following prior awards, plus a contract for airport well construction under bid 2026-8. Airport security fencing and gate improvements under an FAA grant agreement were ratified with a 5% local match. The court also approved county clerk records-preservation and imaging work, a recording-software refresh with Harris Recording Solutions, and investment-advisory services; several contract amounts were not stated in the transcript.

Other approved items included a budgeted 36-month managed security operations renewal with Recon InfoSec, Inc., effective October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2029, and Motorola Solutions statements of work for access-control and video-surveillance systems at the new agricultural extension office and Precinct 3 service center. The court approved renewals for county-court-of-law defense attorneys and authorized a change to the planned police-vehicle mix—substituting trucks for two Tahoes and adding a Ford Explorer—without increasing the approved budget; the transcript gives the total as $563,000. Motions on these items passed. The court also approved payroll and fund transfers, bills and related financial items, and use of inmate labor to assist the Alzheimer’s Association. No procurement-related policy change was identified.
