Commissioners approve amendment to road-use agreement and several payments
Freestone County Commissioners Court amended an existing road-use agreement to include an additional roughly 22,100 feet of road and approved several payments for county vendors and contractors during its meeting.

The court heard from a county official who said a company submitted a revised map showing the pipeline crossing and an additional 22,100-foot segment that should be added to the existing road-use agreement. A motion to amend the road-use agreement was made, members voted "aye," and the presiding officer said, "Motion carried." The speaker who moved the amendment was not identified by name in the transcript.

The court also voted to approve a group of payments or form approvals (motion moved and seconded, vote recorded as unanimous "aye"). Items listed in the discussion included payments or awards described in the transcript as: Jeremy Shipley — $8,000; Lauren — $3,000; Buck — $5,000; LeBron — $35,100; Fitch — $5,000; and "Will Ross team" — $100,000. The meeting transcript does not provide additional context about the purpose of each listed payment.

Separately, the transcript records discussion of bonds and filing with the county clerk (Renee was named as the person to receive filed documents) tied to the road-use agreements, and a county official said the change to the map would not change the bond amount. The court did not alter the road numbers; it only agreed to add the new mapped length to the existing agreement.

No further motions or roll-call tallies beyond the recorded unanimous voice votes were included in the transcript excerpt.

The court did not discuss a new bond amount or changes to financial assurances beyond noting the bond would not change, and it directed staff to file the updated agreement map with the county records.
