Court approves utility permits and plats; commissioner raises resident complaints about Comcast contractors

Brazos County Commissioners Court approved several utility permits and subdivision plats March 10, 2026, after commissioners discussed constituent concerns about contractor cleanup in residential areas.

The court approved a series of Comcast permits to directional bore conduit under county roads and approved a Frontier permit to install fiber optic conduit needed to accommodate a road improvement project. During consideration of one Comcast item a commissioner reported complaints from residents inside city limits that Comcast contractors had not properly cleaned up lawns or restored landscaping. Commissioners advised those residents to contact the City of Bryan public works director for city‑limit issues and noted the county's Road and Bridge will enforce cleanup and restoration standards where county permits apply.

The court also approved several plats and subdivision requests (including Texas Ag Acres and Veterans Grove Subdivision Phase 1) and other routine infrastructure requests. All motions were approved by voice vote.

The court asked that staff follow up with the appropriate city or vendor contacts when constituents report construction cleanup problems so issues can be addressed promptly.
