Share The Hill County Commissioners Court met in a brief special session Tuesday, January 19. Commissioners voted to rescind former court orders awarding bids for the construction of a new Precinct 3 maintenance barn in Penelope and a bridge over Brooken Creek on HCR 3206. The court will accept bids for the projects again after determining that the requests were not properly advertised the first time. County Judge Justin Lewis also updated commissioners on an effort to increase COVID-19 vaccine availability to Hill County residents. Although the county is not in charge of the vaccine rollout, Lewis said that the county worked with Ascension Medical Group Providence Clinic and Hill Regional Hospital to develop a proposal that was submitted to the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) and the Texas Department of Emergency Management (TDEM).
