Comal County to consider flood alert work and outdoor burning restriction Nov. 12

Grants, Johnson Way and county space

The court is scheduled to canvass ballots concerning Johnson Way subdivision improvements and assessments. Canvassing is the listed action; the posted agenda does not supply a result that this preview can report. The court will also consider a Texas General Land Office Mitigation Reallocation Program grant application and a Texas Community Development Block Grant Community Development Fund application. An application is a request for funding, not a grant award. The court's action and the applications themselves are the records that can establish the proposed projects, funding requests and local commitments.

Two property-use proposals concern county space. Commissioners will consider an amended Pay and Save lease pending a property exchange and a proposal to provide American Red Cross space in the Church Hill Annex. Each has its own terms and potential use of county property. The agenda lists them separately, so a decision on one should not be taken as a decision on the other.

Routine business and public participation

Other scheduled business includes approval of claims and proposed budget transfers for the auditor's office supplies, visiting judges, jail feeding and medical care, and public information office travel. The agenda also lists a hunger and homelessness awareness proclamation. Those entries help residents see the full public docket without treating a proposed transfer or proclamation as an adopted result.

The agenda schedules a workshop for citizen comments and reports from staff and elected officials. Its comment instructions allow remarks on general matters or specific agenda items and set a three-minute limit per speaker. A separate executive-session notice cites property, economic development and litigation matters; any final action would have to occur in public. The notice does not establish that a private discussion or later public action actually took place.

Comal County Commissioners Court is scheduled to meet Thursday, Nov. 12, 2026, at 8:30 a.m. in the Commissioners Courtroom, 100 Main Plaza, New Braunfels. Residents who want to follow a particular proposal can use the official agenda to identify its item before the meeting, then check the court's public action record for what commissioners actually did. The flood agreement, any burning order and the Johnson Way canvass are especially useful records to inspect after the meeting.
