COLUMBUS — The Nov. 13 Commissioners Court meeting saw the Commissioners decide on action for several different topics including the speed limit on County Road 111, the use of county property by a senior citizen meal service as well as the appointment of a new member to the Colorado County Children’s Protective Services Board.

The Commissioners approved a motion to establish a 40-mph speed limit on County Road 111 instead of the current 60 mph limit. The constant use by large transport trucks and vehicles led to the importance of a lower limit to allow for easier entrance and crossing of the road.

The Children’s Protective Services Board gave their recommendation to appoint Lynn Chambers to an active-duty role with the organization. President of the Board Walt Glasscock led with a report on the actions and goals of the board including their goal to add Chambers to their numbers. The Commissioners voted to appoint Chambers to the board by unanimous decision.
