Court approves new district clerk’s office position in effort to alleviate restitution payment issues

Hays County Commissioners unanimously approved a new position for the district clerk's office, due in part to the office needing to meet reconciliation duties in a timely fashion.

The Financial Specialist III position which was added is designed to take on responsibilities associated with bookkeeping duties related to courts, registry and trust accounts, and will maintain financial records, reconciliations and reporting requirements for the office.

The fiscal impact of adding this position will be $74,324 annually, impacting the FY 2023 budget by $16,127.
