# Liberty County Live Event

Liberty County Board of Commissioners meeting, including a special-called millage public hearing, held November 13, 2026. Commissioners reviewed a proposed new one-year lease with the Liberty County Historical Society, extending into 2027; staff and the society were to work out the agreement, with no approval captured. A proposal for memorial benches between county buildings was also discussed, with the Historical Society offering to pay from its budget. On intergovernmental service agreements with municipalities, staff presented updated costs for public works and related services, including $55 per pothole patch and $112.25 per sign. Commissioners reached a consensus for staff to begin discussions with municipalities using the 50% pricing tier and return with the results; no final agreement or rate was approved. The discussion noted that street sweeping would be an additional service and could require more staff capacity.

The millage hearing covered a staff-proposed rollback rate of 19.146 mills and debate over a further two-mill reduction, estimated to reduce revenue by about $749,000 and draw on fund balance; the transcript does not clearly establish the final adopted rate or vote. The county also discussed a roughly $400,000 replacement for an aging Justice Center HVAC unit, listed on the capital improvement plan, but no purchase authorization or award was recorded. Commissioners approved two impact-fee appeal requests, including a $2,500 refund. No competitive bid or vendor award was identified.
