NEW COURT MINUTES WEBSITE

The Titus County Clerk Is Proud To Announce Its New WebSite

In a continuing effort to create a transparent environment, the Titus County Clerk, Dianne Norris, has set up a new website that offers innovative capabilities both to the public and to the county office.

The public no longer needs to know the date to find information on a Commissioner Court meeting. A search, similar to Google, can now be done that returns a list of relevant meetings. The search may be done under a specific year or within a range of years. Simply enter the word or phrase in the search box and press the submit button. Additionally, meetings may still be accessed by date.

Due to the enhanced date organization, archived meetings from the early 1970’s are available to the public. All information for a given meeting is now linked within a single document.

Issues with Chrome

While the application will work with the "top five" browsers, it does require the use of a fully functioning PDF reader. Although Chrome comes with a PDF reader, it is limited in a number of ways. One issue that could happen when using Chrome is that it may not correctly access links from within a PDF document.

There are a couple of simple solutions to fix this issue. The easiest of these is to simply use Internet Explorer to view the Court Minutes. The second solution will fix Chrome where it can view the links inside the minutes.

On the Chrome address line, type CHROME://PLUGINS and press enter. This lists all of the plug-ins on the browser. From here, disable the “Chrome PDF Viewer”, and enable (if not already) the “Adobe PDF Plug-In”. It should look something like this when complete:

NOTE: If you do not see a plug-in for Adobe PDF Reader, you may need to download Adobe Reader
