Walker County Commissioners Court convened on March 24, 2025, with a full quorum present, marking a significant session that included the proclamation of March as American Red Cross Month. The court unanimously approved the proclamation, recognizing the vital contributions of the American Red Cross and its volunteers in providing relief and support during emergencies.

Commissioner Brandon led the motion, emphasizing the organization's long-standing commitment to alleviating human suffering. The proclamation highlighted the Red Cross's role in delivering shelter, food, and critical blood donations, as well as supporting military families and providing first aid training. The court encouraged all citizens to engage with and support the humanitarian mission of the Red Cross throughout the month.

In addition to the proclamation, the court discussed a resolution authorizing the Twelfth and 278th District Judge to apply for a tech share indigent defense grant, which was also approved. The meeting further addressed the reclassification of the sheriff's office IT position, following the resignation of the previous IT administrator after seven and a half years.

This session underscored the court's commitment to community welfare and the importance of supporting local organizations that provide essential services during times of crisis. The anticipated outcomes include increased public awareness and support for the Red Cross's initiatives, as well as improved resources for the sheriff's office through the approved grants and reclassifications.
