“I strongly believe in listening to the voice of the voter. The proposed elected official increases have generated a discussion which I believe is vital to self-governance. Therefore, I withdraw my support for any salary adjustments for elected officials for the 2016 budget year over and beyond the 3% cost of living (COLA) awarded to all county employees and elected officials. Furthermore, I believe the Commissioner’s Court should establish a committee to evaluate any future elected official adjustments beyond COLA’s awarded to our employees. As always, I will give you 100% and listen to your voice.”

Now he wants a committee lol. How embarrassing. No care for this county ony his pocket and political expediency. What a shame. Have a special election and give these thieves the boot.
A young arrogant fella who spends his day talking down to county employes, reads and votes to give himself a raise and tries to portray himself as a caring person when the news story breaks and people start asking questions?
So it took taxpayer outrage to get you to come to this conclusion?
Seriously? When taxpayers are at the breaking point from the ongoing economic downturn, and when they are struggling to make ends meet and also to meet their tax obligations?
I have to wonder if you guys would have happily taken even more from the taxpayers if they hadn’t gotten so upset?
Frankly, I think you all would.
