The court noted the agreement had been approved previously on May 30, 2025, but lacked the signature of Peacock Energy Project LLC at that time.

The agreement was placed on the consent agenda and approved without extended debate. The county said staff had previously arranged road hauling and repairs related to the project; commissioners noted the county had placed material on the roadway to address potholes incurred during project activity.

The motion to accept and record the agreement was made by Commissioner Gonzales and seconded by Commissioner Gillespie. Commissioners voted to approve the consent-item ratification.

No ordinance or supplemental funding was approved as part of the ratification; the action on the consent agenda recorded the executed agreement and allowed county staff to proceed under the terms of the road-use and repair arrangement.","The court accepted and recorded a road use and master repair agreement with Peacock Energy Project LLC; the agreement was previously approved but lacked the company signature.

Marcy, a county staff member, showed the commissioners how to access the site and said the county’s San Patricio page is live. “The web page right here is up and running and, the site is countytaxrates.com,” Marcy said during Commissioners Court.

She walked through features available on the site: last year’s values, estimated taxes, adopted tax rates, proposed tax rates, taxable values, exemptions and a graphical view of tax rates over time. The page includes public notices of hearings and an option for public feedback; Marcy said those messages currently route to the judge’s office or to an address handled by Debbie in the county office.

Marcy said residents can use either countytaxrates.com or sanpatricio.countytaxrates.com to reach the county’s page. The site is intended to give property owners an estimate of their taxes and to make meetings and adopted rates easier to find.

No ordinance or resolution was considered during the demonstration; the item was provided as public information and did not require a vote.","A county staff member demonstrated the San Patricio County page on countytaxrates.com, showing search tools for property owners to view values, exemptions, estimated taxes and public notices.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6479231,"San Patricio County officials report $25 million GLO award for local projects",64,842000,906000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5706724-31b0b9ab1ed08ac3efefe5ad36521b18&start=842&end=906","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5706724-31b0b9ab1ed08ac3efefe5ad36521b18/thumbnail_842000.jpg","/articles/6479231/San-Patricio-County/Texas/San-Patricio-County-officials-report-25-million-GLO-award-for-local-projects","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6479231-529c1d936f5975cd490ae29b8fa07f6e/orig.mp4?Expires=1770452911&Signature=SERZdayXLMiU6RYeeLVE-O2RJ5rAJIy~XDKi1HxbhMPcWU62yvlEJTDWdEeb6UrCFIDoR~7ZMfX15~IKVtZtovm7BiPejhdiJYw0WVBeERbq7bWBPBBp5oVS~pwcTMZheYwEC0zr2AvIuae1GNtE3oR1kUlWewOe52sXWrb6AFwMicXsPfEPTbjmmupsRs~D0m06J09r-~u9b3mtS~jY5dwk9MKjMZucnjP6hVundUkU35a1l2hKnuki1k1DZXM2xgA5B3nqrA7HVBEzrWxHfKyJeESW7bkW1DAqbrjOkEkP2pVfNRz0UjjXu4KRFCVe63ACpf0bVtNzfHnl7w4krg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","San Patricio County officials told commissioners that the county received a $25,000,000 check from the GLO and brought the award to Commissioners Court for acknowledgement.

County staff who picked up the check were identified as Jessica Newman, Susan Botwell and John Hernandez. Judge (presiding officer) thanked the staff and said the funds will be used for multiple county projects and community needs. “I mean, this is gonna be a great, great asset here to the county. There's $25,000,000 that we did get,” the judge said during the meeting.

Officials said the award resulted from coordinated work across county departments and community partners. They listed several communities and projects as potential beneficiaries, and thanked departments for working together to secure the funds.

No formal appropriation or project-by-project allocations were adopted during the meeting. County staff indicated the funds will be used for local projects across the county and that departments will continue to coordinate on specific uses and next steps.

The acknowledgment at Commissioners Court did not include a motion to appropriate funds to specific projects. Staff indicated more detailed project lists and implementation steps will follow in future meetings and departmental planning.","County leaders said staff collected a $25,000,000 check from the GLO and intend to allocate funds across multiple county projects and communities; county staff who picked up the check were named at the commissioners' court meeting.","actionData","errors"]
