Kerr County officials addressed the Fourth of July floods that killed dozens of people during a commissioners’ court meeting on Monday morning.

Monday morning, Kerr County Commissioners held a special meeting to address the flood recovery efforts. The floodplain manager for the county, Charlie Hastings, spoke first and recounted that morning, where he was and the sadness he's experiencing for the community.

Kerr County reports 3 missing and 107 deaths, including 37 children, post-flooding. Over 1,000 workers helped lower the missing count, and community support aids the ongoing search and relief efforts.

The flood on July Fourth completely leveled Mike Richards' cabin on the Guadalupe River. But these days, he's not worried about his cabin.

After flash floods swept through central Texas in July 2025, people online searched for reasons why the disaster was so deadly.
