County Commissioners lead in hard times
As the only candidate for Tom Green County Commissioner who attended every county budget hearing, I confidently praise the Tom Green County Commissioner’s Court for the hard work it’s done and for making the tough decisions mandated by hard economic times. I watched Ralph Hoelscher, Aubrey De Cordova, Steve Floyd, Richard Easingwood and Judge Mike Brown go through the proposed budget line by line; listen to department heads, make sensible reductions in spending, and look for solutions to funding for mandated services while balancing critical services. I don’t think this court will vote for a tax increase this year. And kudos to the county department heads who recognized the critical state of the local economy and responded by reducing their budget requests. I can’t vote on the FY 2011 budget, but I know how tough the process has been on everyone involved.
