Payne and Barton clash over sheriff budget in MA court
In a county court budget workshop, Precinct 2 Commissioner Jeff Barton accused Payne of using a sheriff’s budget raid as a political tactic. Payne pressed for emergency services funding for Wimberley and Dripping Springs, while Barton warned the tactic would mislead toward a tax increase. Republican Molenaar signaled support for EMS funding if tied to the tax, with Etheredge and Rodriguez backing the sheriff’s budget and personnel.
