# 10-01-2026 Special Session

Erath County Commissioners Court special session on October 1, 2026, approved an interlocal agreement with the County Volunteer Fire Department. The agreement uses funds already included in the adopted budget; no total allocation was stated. The County expects to make an estimated initial payment, with later quarterly payments based on a direct-versus-indirect cost breakdown that remains to be worked out. The agreement keeps ownership of the vehicles with the County, which also retains related insurance and building costs. Commissioners noted that Exhibit A, an inventory list referenced in the agreement, still needs to be prepared and added or updated. A separate agreement with Gordon was still pending a signature. The motion to approve the agreement passed, with no opposition reported.

The Court also discussed a possible 72-hour lift of the burn ban following rain. The presiding official said they would consult with Tommy and complete the necessary paperwork; the transcript does not record a formal vote or final decision on the lift. No other procurement actions were identified.
