Kerr County commissioners approve bond for appointed district clerk

Kerr County Commissioners on April 1 approved the official bond for Univeh Bobblett to serve as district clerk, enabling her to fill the unexpired term of Don Lance.

The action came at a special-called meeting convened to handle two items. Univeh Bobblett introduced herself to the court and asked that the bond be approved so she could assume her duties. "I'm Univeh Bobblett, and I am being appointed today as district clerk to fulfill the unexpired term of Don Lance," she said.

A motion to approve the bond was made and seconded, the court voted in favor and the presiding judge said he would sign the bond and leave it at the clerk's window. The judge opened the special meeting noting that such meetings are for immediate, time-sensitive matters; the bond approval was the first item on the agenda.

The approval allows Bobblett to take the oath and begin performing district clerk duties subject to the completion of bond formalities. The court adjourned after completing the scheduled business.
