The record. The County Clerk posts the Commissioners Court's minutes (copies without their attachments); the 66 minutes and budget workshop minutes of January 14, 2025 through October 14, 2026 (scans) were read whole. The Court sits as County Judge Clark Osborne and Commissioners Steve Parrish, Carl Wiseman, Carl Cannon and David Pohorelsky. Each regular meeting takes a department report from "Veterans Affairs", most months marked "No report submitted". The other items that bear on veterans: - August 12 and 26 and September 9, 2025: the Judge's reports on the construction at the "old Juvenile Probation/ new Veterans Affair office" and the office moves for Veterans Affairs; on August 12 the Court also noted Gordon Plumlee's VA accreditation. - September 23, 2025 (item k): the 2026 holiday schedule approved "with the correction of Veteran's Day", all in favour. - October 14, 2025: the Veterans Affairs report submitted; "Gordon Plumlee spoke about a parade." - October 28, 2025 (item g): "Manage Rental Agreement with UBEO for Veteran's Services", approved, all in favour. - April 14, 2026: the Judge "spoke about ... a Veteran Marker". - July 6, 2026: the budget workshop heard the Veterans Service request from Gordon Plumlee; on September 22, 2026 the Court adopted the FY2027 budget, with $69,340.82 for the Veteran Coordinator department (see the office's entry). - September 8, 2026: Mr. Plumlee's certificate for four hours of continuing education in "Interacting with Veterans in a Jail Setting". What is not on record. The minutes omit the attached reports, so what the office reported is not public; ask the County Clerk, Adrian Lawson, 936-241-6210, for the official minutes. No veteran benefit was adopted, narrowed or repealed on the record read.
