Commissioners to meet on Monday

Published

on

A budget workshop and executive session on pending litigation top the 9 a.m. June 10 Montague County Commissioner’s Court session.
The agenda lists the executive session for deliberations with legal counsel for pending litigation, with any action to follow back in open session.
For the budget workshop, this item will be on the agendas during the next few months as elected and appointed officials can present their proposed budget requests. Many wait until the certified property values are released in July as the revenues become more clear for fiscal year 2024-25.
Monday’s agenda will include a presentation by members of Montague County 4-H on their past year’s activities and the Montague County Historical Commission also will receive a 2023 Distinguished Service Award for exceptional services.
Two members of the commission have submitted their resignations, Billy Moore and Tina R. Geurin, with the commission offering Dan Watson and Larry Veale as new members.
Other topics are: Consider an agreement for sign language interpreting services between the county justice of the peace two and Hired Hands, Inc.; budget adjustment for child safety revenue and expense for $26,787; budget adjustment to election judges/clerks for $11,855; budget adjustments in precinct three for $36,986 from the sale of property to machinery and equipment; and go out for sealed bids for base rock #1, #2 and oversize and chip rock.
