P R O C E E D I N G S
JUDGE TINLEY: Okay. It's 11 a.m. on
November the 13th, 2003. I'll call to order the special
Commissioners Court meeting posted for this date. The
agenda item today is to canvass the Emergency Services
District election. I have here before me Envelope Number 1,
which contains the election results, which I will now open.
And inside the envelope, we have the tally sheets and the
tabulation, and the tabulation is as follows: For -- voting
for the formation of the emergency -- Kerr County Emergency
Services District Number 2, early votes, 71. Against the
formation of the district in early votes, 23. And on
election day, voting for the creation of the Emergency
Services District Number 2, 25. And against the formation
of the district, 10. The total, 96 votes for the creation
of the Kerr County Emergency Services District Number 2, and
33 votes against the creation of the district, 129 total
votes.
COMMISSIONER NICHOLSON: What's the proper
wording of the motion? I move to accept the results of the
election?

further question or discussion?
COMMISSIONER BALDWIN: I think it's very
interesting that -- the difference in the amount of votes on
the pre-election than it was on election day. Seven --
like, the for's was, like, 77 to 29 or something.
COMMISSIONER LETZ: 71-23.
COMMISSIONER WILLIAMS: Little over
three-to-one.
COMMISSIONER BALDWIN: I find that very
interesting.
COMMISSIONER LETZ: Yeah.
COMMISSIONER BALDWIN: Early voting works,
obviously.
COMMISSIONER LETZ: Well, early voting works,
plus, I mean -- yeah. I mean, people -- 71 out of the 96
voted in early voting. I mean, more than that.

COMMISSIONER LETZ: 94 of the 129, early
voting.
COMMISSIONER NICHOLSON: I think most of you
know that Mr. Bernard Syfan was the driving force behind
this, and he had the idea and he organized it and put it
togetYier and got support for it, and in my view, it's a good
thing that results in our having improved firefighting
capability out there in that area. So, tYiank you,
Mr. Syfan.
COMMISSIONER LETZ: Thank you.
JUDGE TINLEY: We appreciate your efforts.
Any further question or discussion on the motion? All in
favor of the motion, signify by raising your right hand.
(The motion carried by unanimous vote.)
JUDGE TINLEY: All opposed, same sign.
(No response.)
JUDGE TINLEY: Motion does carry. Being no
further business on the agenda, I'll declare us adjourned.
(Commissioners Court adjourned at 11:04 a.m.)
