Motley County Veterans Service Officer: Rodger Vinson Has Resigned (Agenda of October 13, 2026)

The officer. The Commissioners' Court's agenda for Tuesday, October 13, 2026 (item 13) reads: "Veterans Service officer for Motley County, Rodger Vinson has resigned." The minutes of that meeting are not yet posted, so whether the Court named a successor is not known. The county's site has no veterans page and gives no office, number or hours for a veterans service officer. Until the post is filled, call the County Judge's office; the Texas Veterans Commission's claims counselors help any veteran free (see the Texas entry). A county officer files VA and State claims under Government Code chapter 434. How the county funds it. The 2026-2027 budget (October 1, 2026 to September 30, 2027; the Commissioners' Court passed it on September 14, 2026, the certificate signed by County Judge Jim Meador, County Clerk Taylor Elliott and Treasurer Misty Jones) shows no veterans department or line in the pages read. A county of under 200,000 people is not required to keep an officer (Government Code 434.032). TexVet. TexVet's county list still names Roger Vinson for Motley, with no telephone or e-mail address.
