Commissioners conduct brief meeting
Montague County Commissioners handled a very brief agenda of business Monday morning.
The court accepted all five bids for base rock #1 #2, oversize and chip rock for a one-year period. Bidders included J.R. Thompson, P&K Stone, Cooke County Crushed Stone, Martin-Marietta and Burnco. Commissioners agreed as they accept all members can use the company that may be located closest to a project or if one is out of a product, they can go to another one.
The construction bond was released on Red Oaks subdivision in precinct four. Commissioner Bob Langford said the developer had completed the roads and they met the specifications.
Sheriff Marshall Thomas asked for a line-item budget adjustment of $14,343.26 for unanticipated revenue from the Texas Association of Counties for auto damage claims on two patrol vehicles. He explained a Dodge Durango was severely damaged by hail while on patrol and one of the pickups hit a hog while on an emergency call.
There was a budget workshop listed on the agenda, where it is expected to remain until the budget process is completed to allow any elected officials or office holder to submit any requests.
