Brandon Burleson recently announced his candidacy for Hays County Judge.
Burleson, a lifelong county resident, will run in the Democratic primary against incumbent Ruben Becerra. In his campaign announcement, Burleson said he would challenge county staff to protect existing services by increasing efficiency and innovation in all operations in order to keep up with explosive and expensive development.
“We must provide our residents with the best — and at the best price,” Burleson said. “The people of Hays County can have no doubts that every penny we spend is being spent as wisely as possible. Holding the tax rate steady is important, but it is not enough. As property assessments increase, a stable tax rate still results in a higher tax bill. We must do better. And this will be one of my highest priorities as county judge.”
