San Patricio County Commissioners on Tuesday approved a series of routine contracts, purchases and personnel actions after brief staff reports and limited discussion.

Key approvals included: a five‑year maintenance agreement for the county data center cooling and uninterruptible power supply with Toobecene Solutions LLC; renewal of the radio tower light maintenance contract at the Ingleside tower site with Lumen Service; awarding county fuel supply IFB to Oil Patch Petroleum Incorporated; awarding a jail commissary contract to Correct Commissary per a sheriff's office request; purchase of a 2025 Dodge 1500 pickup for Precinct 1 through the BuyBoard at $43,222; finalization of an IFB for countywide road materials; and acceptance of unclaimed property capital credits from the Texas Comptroller process (application approved; amount not yet specified).

IT/Facilities: Steven (IT/team manager) told the court the county's one‑year warranty had expired and staff sought a five‑year maintenance agreement for data‑center cooling and UPS maintenance. The contract totals $104,800 across five years, payable annually, which staff described as about $20,000 per year.

Public safety and facilities: The sheriff's office said Federal Aviation Administration rules require tower lights to be maintained; the sheriff described past replacement costs after storms and supported extending the maintenance contract to limit large replacement costs. The court approved the Lumen contract extension.

Procurement and supplies: The purchasing coordinator reported one bidder for county fuel; the court awarded the IFB to Oil Patch Petroleum for countywide deliveries. The court also finalized a separate IFB for county road materials, allowing prior lowest-bid awards to stand because the vendor did not appear to present additional evidence.

Personnel: The court approved several personnel actions (terminations and resignations) submitted in the personnel report, including the termination of Alan Esquivel (maintenance assistant), resignations of Augustine Barone (custodian), Ontario Dunia (heavy equipment operator), Benjamin Gray (assistant district attorney), and Timothy Pointer (first assistant district attorney); all personnel items were approved as presented.

Ending: The court closed the regular session after approving all consent and agenda items and moved to adjourn at the end of the meeting.
