Sheriff begins jail budget presentation, lists reclassifications and position requests

Kerr County Commissioners Court · May 22, 2026

Summary

The sheriff told Kerr County commissioners he had 10 items for the jail budget, including reclassifications and new position requests, but the full outline was not completed before the court recessed for a short break.

As the court moved to the county jail budget item, the sheriff told commissioners Thursday he would present 10 items covering the jail, including reclassifications and requests for new positions. "I've got the following 10 items on y'all's list," the sheriff said, adding he had discussed the proposals with the incoming judge and Commissioner Jones.

The sheriff said he would attempt to justify each request in the presentation and that some items include reclassifications and new-position requests. The court did not finish the sheriff's presentation before calling a 15-minute recess for an equipment issue in the meeting room.

Because the sheriff's remarks were an initial overview, details and specific dollar amounts were not recorded in the available transcript. The court planned to resume after the brief break and continue with the jail item as part of the ongoing budget workshop.
