1. BRIEF HISTORY
Brazos County, is a Political Subdivision of the State of Texas,
created out of the Counties of Washington and Robertson by the
Congress of the Republic of Texas in 1841.
The original county seat was at Booneville, until a vote of it's
citizens moved the county seat to Bryan on October 15, 1867.
Booneville was,about three miles east of Bryan (near the present
Brazos County Park), but the location of the railroad through Bryan
in 1361 resulted in the change.
Brazos County has been the home of Texas A&M University since it
opened on October 4, 1676. The University is the primary stimulus
for the economy of the County, having grown to. a student enrollment
in'excess of 25,000. The Texas Agricultural Extension Service and
Texas Engineering Extension Service tarry influence if AM into eery
County in Texas.
The cities of Bryan and College Station are the only incorporated
cities in Brazos County. Together, they have been designated a
Standard iletropolitan Statistical Area by the U.S. Department of
Commerce. The 1970 population of Brazos County was 56,096.
Brazos County is governed by a Commissioners Court consisting of the ;
County Judge elected county-wide and four C=rnissioners elected from
Geographic Precincts. In Texas, Counties operate within the limits
of state law, possessing very limited ordinance making powers. ~
,
The Trade Area around Brazos County consists of the counties of
Leon, Robertson, Madison, Grimes, Washington, and Burleson. These
Counties, together with Brazos County, comprise the Brazos Valley
Development Council Region, a State Planning Region and Economic
Development District.

IV. AVAILABILITY OF.SKILLED MINORITY GROUP PERSONS
The County of Brazos' has no, training facilities at present for,
preparing-prospective erlployees in the skilled and semi-skilled
trade except for the facilities at Bryan and AM Consolidated
High Schools. A comparatively small number of minority residents
of the county are presently qualified to apply for the skilled
and semi-skilled positions, though they make up a significant
labor resource for the unskilled jobs.
The county will-utilize the facilities of the High Schools in
training needed personnel from the minority group for a source
of trained persons. As the county plans to use CETA prograins to
train the persons needed, the High School facilities will enhance
the training program.
Planned improvem,nts in Highways, public roads, etc., will make
the Regional Multi-Use Facility more accessible to a large number
of disadvantaged persons from Brazos and the surrounding area.

Opportunity with absolutely no discrimination against any person
because of race, color, religion, national origin, or sex. It
~r must be understood, hooever, that in accordance with State Law
the type of selection process through which prospective employees
pass, the ultimate decision to hire of not to hire, and the decision
to terminate employment involuntarily, rest with the elected official,
under whom the employee will work when hired. The Commissioners
~f Court is prohibited by Law from interfering with that process and
decision on the part of other elected officials.,
Ef By adopting this policy, the Commissioners Court affirmatively
commits itself to the basic premise of the policy, encouraging and
requesting all elected officials of the county to follow its mandate,
to the end that the policy will extend to each and every area of

ificati,on. This obligation extends to all areas of employment
including, but not necessarily limited to the following:
