County leaders take aim at Republicans over runoffs
Hays County officials push a resolution demanding the Elections Administrator and Treasurer bill the House Republican Caucus chair and State GOP executive director Karen Hughes for costs tied to separate runoffs. Three commissioners support, one opposes, one abstains as Democrats outnumber Republicans on the court. Barton criticizes the move as wasteful and cites a source in Senate candidate Hutchison. The governor plans to sign the related law, but Hays County flags no benefit.

Attorney backs Walthers on enforcing FIRM map in Hays County
Hays County must enforce the Federal Insurance Rate Map read into the Federal Register by FEMA as part of flood plain management. County Flood Plain Administrator Allen Walthers announced the consensus of staff, citing Ed McCarthy's legal opinion that using the maps supports procedural compliance and does not weaken the county's litigation against FEMA filed February 16 in federal court.
