Lynn County Commissioners' Court: A Budget Without a Veterans Line, Adopted Unchanged; Veteran's Day on the 2027 Holiday Calendar

The Court. The Lynn County Commissioners' Court meets in regular session on the second and fourth Mondays at 9:30 a.m. in the County Court Room on the first floor of the courthouse in Tahoka, with added dates around the budget; it sits as County Judge Mike Braddock and Commissioners Matt Woodley, John Hawthorne, Tate Gass and Larry Durham, with County Clerk Karen Rendon as clerk of the Court. What was read. The agendas and minutes the Agendas & Minutes page posts for August 25, 2025 through October 26, 2026 - for 2026, 22 meetings' agendas from January 12 to October 26 and 20 sets of minutes from January 12 to September 28 - and the 2026-2027 budget worksheet. What the year shows. On September 21, 2026 the Court accepted the 2026-2027 proposed budget and tax rate, set their hearings for September 28 and approved the 2027 holiday calendar, which lists "Thursday, November 11, 2027 - Veteran's Day" among its ten holidays. On September 28, 2026, after hearings at which no one spoke, the Court adopted the budget with no changes and the tax rate, each by unanimous vote; the budget has no veterans department (see lynn-tx-veterans-services). On September 15, 2025 it accepted a 2026 holiday calendar whose dates the minutes do not list, and on May 11, 2026 it ordered certain fireworks prohibited for Memorial Day. No agenda or minutes read names veterans, a veterans service officer or a veterans benefit.
