Bexar County Commisioners

Low-level offenders put to work at county facilities and at non-profits

In other action at their Tuesday meeting, commissioners will vote on funding for mental treatment, and on funding for voting pads, and on funding for an Asian community center

Nearly two months after 13 people lost their lives in devastating flash floods near Loop 410 and Perrin Beitel, Bexar County is moving towards a new flood warning system. A joint effort with the county, the City of San Antonio and the San Antonio River Authority, NextGen will detect rising waters at low-water crossings across the area.

The event from March 31 to April 6 attracts some of the world's best golfers who compete for a $9.5 million purse. The winner receives $1.7 million.

The county will enter into a $392,700 contract agreement with firm Civic Government Solutions to print and mail about 210,000 voter registration application forms to unregistered voters.

Some of the half-a-million residents in outlying areas of Bexar County may soon have other options to dispose of bulky items.

The historic Lerma's Nite Club conversion into a BiblioTech Digital Library was bolstered by county commissioners' recent approval of a $1.4 million construction bid.

On Tuesday, commissioners allocated $3.6 million for a supplemental low-income household energy assistance program to ensure there are enough resources available to qualified residents through February 2025.

Residents said the system could not keep up once its septic drainage field was saturated by rains or during peak sewage use times, such as holidays.

County leaders approved the county's agenda to push through the 118th U.S. Congress.
