Mayor Terry Frank Mills, 37, appeared Wednesday morning for a pre-trial intervention in Henderson County Court at Law No. 1.  Mills agreed to a 12-month probation and 100 community service hours. He will also pay court fees. The mayor was arrested on December 18, 2013, for driving while intoxicated with a blood alcohol content level greater than .15. The legal limit in Texas is .08. Additionally, he was charged with unlawful carrying weapon, a class A misdemeanor. <!--more-->  <\/p>\n<p>During an interview with our news partner KETK, Mills said, &#8220;I take full responsibility for my actions. I&#8217;ve embarrassed myself and the city. The city is 100 percent behind me. I will take the required steps to fulfill the obligations of the probation and continue to look forward to working with the city and to be a productive citizen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to county officials, the arrest will remain on the mayor&#8217;s record, but not as a conviction if he does not break probation. If the contract is violated, Mills will be called back to court and the contract will be terminated. A plea would then most likely be sought.  The city&#8217;s website states Mills has been a peace officer since 1998, and he is currently a reserve deputy for the Henderson County Sheriff&#8217;s Office.  Mills was first elected mayor of Brownsboro in 2011.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ATHENS \u2014 The mayor of Brownsboro agreed Tuesday to a probationary contract with the state during a hearing for his December 2013 DWI arrest.
