Commissioner objects to $77,600 communications contract for Precinct 4, court approves despite auditor concerns

Jan 20, 2026

Commissioner Clay Flores objected to a proposed personal-services contract for communications services in Precinct 4 (up to $77,600) citing a more-than-100% per-month increase from a prior contract; county auditor and DA noted limited scope-of-work detail but court approved the contract.

The full story

Commissioner Clay Flores pulled Item 73 for discussion and stated he could not support the proposed personal-service agreement between Bexar County and Jonathan Holler (Holler Strategies) for up to $77,600. Flores noted the prior contract was roughly $55,000 for 12 months and said the new contract represents a "111% increase" in monthly rate and lacks sufficient deliverables to allow auditing.
