Gillespie County Drops Farm to Market Road Plan
Gillespie County commissioners withdrew support for RM 3348 a two point two mile farm to market road east of Fredericksburg due to high costs and an questioned appraisal method. County Judge Victor Sagebiel said the move followed advice from the Texas Attorney General's Office indicating no ruling would change the land value method. The panel had previously backed the project, with talk of an optional 1.8 mile extension to US 290 East, but stopped after cost concerns.
