# Special Commissioners Court - 11-02-2026

The Aransas County Commissioners’ Court held a special meeting on November 2, 2026, with a quorum of four members; Commissioner Dupnik was absent. The court considered the county’s banking arrangement with Prosperity Bank, the only bank to submit a bid. The treasurer described a two-year extension beginning November 10, 2026, and a new same-day ACH option costing $20 per batch; the county anticipated using it for payroll about twice a year. The court also considered the related collateral and pledge agreement, with staff noting it had no significant changes from the prior agreement and that county deposits must be collateralized at 110%. A motion to approve the collateral and pledge agreement and authorize the county judge to execute it passed. The transcript does not clearly capture a separate vote on the banking extension. The court struck accounts payable from the agenda.

During public comment, two residents raised concerns about proposed Class VI CO₂ injection wells, potential effects on groundwater and local fishing, and the need for clear public notice and information. No action on the wells was recorded; a public meeting was mentioned as planned for November 19. The meeting then adjourned.
