What was read. The 53 agendas, budget workshop and hearing notices and special meeting notices the County Judge's page posts for June 23, 2025 through October 26, 2026 (scans, OCR'd). The Clerk's Commissioners Court page sends readers to a minutes and attachments portal at a bare IP address (67.22.215.199, port 8082), which this session could not reach, so no minutes were read. What the year shows. On September 22, 2025 the Court adopted the Fiscal Year 2026 budget and took up the calendar 2026 holidays; the 2026 schedule posted by the Clerk closes county offices on "Veteran's Day", Wednesday, November 11, 2026. After budget workshops on August 7, 14 and 21 and September 1, 2026 and the budget and tax rate hearing on September 8, the September 14, 2026 agenda lists approving the Fiscal Year 2027 budget and setting the fiscal 2027 holidays; the adopted budget keeps the Veterans Service Officer department at $9,060.48, with a part-time officer's position at $5,677.14 (see swisher-tx-veterans-services). None of the agendas read names a veterans item or the officer.
