Top issues during term (3)(Environment)
wastewater discharge into Salado Creek
This could cost taxpayers big if cleanup is needed, or maybe even boost local businesses if the creek stays pristine!
environmental impact of data centers
Unknown, but residents suggest it could impact local water rates or availability.
groundwater overpumping settlement
Local taxpayers are on the hook to cover a hefty $175,000 penalty for the excessive water pumping.
