• Notice of Consent Voluntary Annexation (cityofjarrell.com) — Jarrell residents are being asked to weigh in on two proposed annexations totaling about 167 acres at a City Council public hearing on May 5 at City Hall. The tracts in the James Roebuck and Isaac Bunker surveys could expand Jarrell’s boundaries, so neighbors may want to review the details and share any questions with Development Services in advance. 
• Citizen Alerts April 19, 2026 (wilcosun.com) — Several legal notices may matter to Jarrell residents, including a May 5 City of Jarrell public hearing on annexing two sizable tracts that could change city limits. The roundup also lists towing auctions, storage-unit sales, county surplus auctions, roadwork bids, estate notices, and new Georgetown ordinances that may indirectly affect people living in and around Jarrell.
