Val Verde County Outlines Key Offices, Services And Contacts

Val Verde County is emphasizing public access to government functions by directing residents to a set of county and city resources for daily needs, civic participation and emergency information. The County Judge’s Office and Commissioners Court handle public meetings, county orders, procurement and county policy, and meeting agendas, minutes and recordings are posted on the Val Verde County website Commissioners Court page to ensure public visibility of deliberations and decisions.

For land and vital records, the County Clerk serves as the repository for official filings and the county land records system remains an important source for property documents. The Tax Assessor Collector processes property tax payments, appraisal information and vehicle registration services, functions that have direct financial impact for homeowners and vehicle owners across the county. Residents seeking health care or employment notices should note that Val Verde Regional Medical Center publishes patient facing notices and job postings, and the county library system provides lending, public internet access and regular programming at local branches.

Practical, time sensitive tasks follow established entry points. Utility or water and wastewater billing issues are handled through the City of Del Rio utility billing office via the city website and published contact forms. Businesses and contractors looking to bid on county work should monitor the county procurement and document center pages where solicitations and bid notices, including waterline projects, are posted. Voter registration forms, polling locations and election notices are available at the county elections office and on the county website, providing the mechanisms for residents to engage in local elections.

Public safety and emergency communications are coordinated across agencies. The county sheriff, Del Rio Police Department, emergency management and public health urge residents to follow official social media accounts and county and city alert pages during storms, water events and public safety incidents. To stay informed on routine governance and community events, residents are encouraged to sign up for Val Verde County and City of Del Rio email and civic alert lists, follow official city and county social accounts, watch recorded Commissioners Court meetings on posted video links and check local newspapers and the Del Rio Chamber event calendar.

Transparent posting of agendas and procurement notices strengthens accountability and creates opportunities for civic engagement, while the county offices named above provide the practical services residents rely on for records, taxes, utilities and emergency updates.
