Top issues during term (9)(General)
fallen deputy funeral / ongoing shooting investigation
The county will bear costs for the deputy's funeral, the ongoing investigation, and overtime, plus potential workers' comp and hospital bills for the injured officer.
county resolution on Sharia law
No direct hit to your wallet—this resolution doesn't fund, cut, or regulate anything.
law enforcement accountability
Taxpayers are on the hook for potential legal settlements and the administrative costs of these internal investigations.
district attorney resignation
Probably not a direct hit to your wallet—this is more about who runs prosecutions than new taxes or fees.
County Jail Security and Infrastructure Upgrades
About $500K/year in housing costs plus $27K/month in extra inmate medical, with reopening the unit costing ~$300-350K/year in jailer salaries.
Alligator Creek bridge replacement (Precinct 4)
About $200,000 for the bridge, plus a $65,000 local match on a separate TxDOT bridge project.
Health and safety abatement procedure
Cleanup costs would be fronted by the county and recovered through liens on the property.
law enforcement misconduct
Taxpayers are on the hook for the legal costs of the prosecution and the potential liability from civil rights lawsuits stemming from the deputy's actions.
eminent domain and infrastructure
Homeowners face the potential loss of their property value and displacement, while the county weighs the long-term economic benefits of a new water source.
