Critics warn it could negate monetary penalties for wrongdoing and enforce broad map-based controls. Copies of the modified ordinance are available at the Wimberley View office.

Jail staffing cuts eyed to meet compliance and cut costs
County officials discussed reducing jail capacity from 358 to about 206 by closing units D-11 and D-2 to meet state standards and avoid non compliance penalties. A 90 percent capacity rule would cap contracts at 185. current population averages 131 daily, limiting future demand. Budget impacts include a potential $117,000 reduction in medical, food, and janitorial costs if closures proceed, while staff salaries and most items remain, lowering the jail budget from 3,600,000 to 3,483,000 with no contract income.
