City Council Of The City Of Jacksboro Regular Meeting

The City Council meeting covered several operational and financial matters. The council reviewed and approved the quarterly investment report and the monthly financial report, with specific instructions to review delinquent taxes in the sinking fund. An ordinance was approved to amend the annual budget for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026, to account for equipment costs. A resolution was passed to apply for financial assistance from the Texas Water Development Board for water treatment and infrastructure improvements. The council discussed the purchase of a used dual drum roller for the street department but opted to table the decision pending a cost comparison between in-house work and contracting out road construction. Additionally, the council held a budget workshop that included a presentation of tax appraisal values and a review of funding recommendations and the draft budget.
