Summary

Grayson County Fiscal Court – July 6, 2021

This was a short, routine meeting of the Grayson County Fiscal Court covering standard financial approvals and a construction update on the jail. The court approved minutes from the previous meeting, payment of bills, a CACO resolution related to financing, and the Grayson County Public Library's 2021-2022 budget.

Several jailer-related items were approved, including payment of bills, budget transfers, and the E911 consumer price index adjustment, which was described as a required, non-optional increase.

Much of the discussion centered on the ongoing jail construction and renovation project, including window and trim work, bathroom completion, and exterior brickwork nearing completion. There was also discussion of ongoing HVAC issues at the courthouse, with technicians working to resolve a recurring problem with the control panel affecting multiple units.

The court approved two construction-related payments for the jail project: one to Carter Construction for $19,070, which finalized that contract, and another to Jim Reisinger for bathroom tile work totaling $5,500.

No other new business was raised by any of the magistrates, and the meeting was adjourned.
