Commissioners continue FY27 departmental budget review for constables, library and other county functions

After a brief recess the Burnet County Commissioners Court reconvened and continued its FY27 budget review with testimony from a broad set of department and precinct representatives.

Speakers included Captain Mike Sorenson, Chief Deputy Alan Trevino, Sergeant Josh Swain, Captain Howard Stinehour, Development Services Director Herb Darling, Precinct constables Leslie Ray (Pct. 1), Gary Adams (Pct. 2), Scott Davis (Pct. 3) and Millicent "Missy" Bindseil (Pct. 4), as well as Burnet County Library System staff Amanda Rose and Mary Seaman. The agenda listed many departments under Item #8 including constables, library system, elections, area fire departments, health & welfare and the 911 database. The court reviewed these departmental presentations and took no formal action on the item during the session.

The calendar was reviewed later in the meeting and the court adjourned at 11:47 a.m. after a unanimous motion to close the session.
