Residents of Grayson County can look forward to a series of community events and important financial decisions following the latest government meeting held on September 9, 2025.
One of the key highlights was the announcement of a public meeting featuring gubernatorial candidate Dr. Pete Chambers, scheduled for September 25 at First Baptist Church in Sherman. This event will provide an opportunity for residents to engage with Dr. Chambers and learn about his vision for Texas.
In addition to community engagement, the meeting addressed several financial matters. The court approved the minutes from the previous meeting and swiftly moved through a consent agenda without any objections. Notably, the court authorized significant payments, including $76,230 to the Texas Association of Counties Risk Management Pool for workers' compensation and $344,680.02 to ATMAX Equipment for a new mower for Precinct 1. Furthermore, a payment of $391,619 was approved for a Caterpillar motor grader for Precinct 3.
The court also authorized the county judge to execute the Texas Department of Transportation's routine airport maintenance program for fiscal year 2026. This program, which involves a $100 grant with a 10% county match, will support essential maintenance and upgrades at the local airport, including improvements to the communications network.
These decisions reflect the county's commitment to maintaining infrastructure and supporting community initiatives, ensuring that Grayson County continues to thrive. As the county prepares for upcoming events and projects, residents are encouraged to stay engaged and informed about local governance.
