Freestone County Commissioners Court is still working on settling a difference of opinion between people in Teague and the rest of the county concerning whether or not the justices of the peace for Precinct 2 and 4 would be required to share a small office space in Teague.
The plan to move the Teaguebased Department of Public Safety officers to the Freestone County courthouse and combine Justices of the Peace 2 and 4 in the DPS’ current Teague office may have hit a speed bump since the Justices of the Peace currently in Teague, constables, clerks and the Veteran Service Officer attended Commissioners Court’s Sept. 1 meeting to firmly object to the plan.
The Teague Rodeo Association made a $15,000 donation to the Teague First Responders on Tuesday evening, Sept. 6.

All Teague ISD school board members were present at the Tuesday, Aug. 23, school board meeting where they adopted a lower tax rate for 2022-2023. Although the tax rate will be dropping for residents, the property values have increased which in return will bring in more revenue from taxes.
