Burnet Council Reviews Refund Contracts for Subdivision Utilities
Burnet city officials weigh reinstating refund contracts to cover sewer and water service for a private subdivision south of Highway 29. The move would require city funds and clash with current ordinances, prompting consideration of a referendum. Estimated extension cost runs about 13 200 dollars. James Holcomb of Burnet County Savings and Loan spoke on investment portfolio context.

Hospital to invite federal funds cutoff faces compliance demands
Burnet Shepperd Hospital administrator Bob Lively was told to invite the secretary of HEW to cut off federal funds after a threat to halt Medicare payments unless the board signed a compliance letter to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The board argued Medicare and Medicaid are patient payments, not hospital funding, and noted ramp and access improvements as compliance steps. Lively sought Federal Register clarifications asserting Medicare payments are exempt from federal financial assistance.
