HAYS COUNTY COMMISIONERS COURT
With the rapidly growing population in Hays County, so too is the ever expansion of infrastructure. The Hays County Commissioners Court unanimously approved a road bond for the upcoming election in an effort to ensure that the roads evolve alongside the influx of people at the regularly-scheduled meeting Tuesday. Many people spoke in public comment against the specifics of the bond.
