County mulls shifting narcotics task force funding
Wilson County officials discussed finding a new lead sponsor for the 81st Judicial District Narcotics Task Force, which serves five counties and relies on a 25 percent cash match. They voted to extend the current grant for one year while urging the unit to seek a different sponsor, citing tax-payer risk and inter-county funding tensions. The panel also lifted a 90-day burn ban and approved Floresville’s second Country Market Day on the courthouse square.
