Voters urged to back state amendment ending county fee pay

Bexar and San Antonio voters faced August 24 ballot approval of a proposed state constitutional amendment to abolish the fee system for district and county officers in counties with 29,000 or more population and allow commissioners to decide pay basis in smaller counties.

Supporters argue the change ends warfare between officials and civic groups and could reduce taxes by limiting surpluses.
