Burnet County Sheriff Calvin Boyd was present at the August Chamber meeting to give Chamber members and update on some new legislature that was passed, Senate Bill 22, which will allow for additional funding for salaries at the Sheriff's Department. According to Sheriff Boyd, the Sherriff's Department consumes approximately fifty percent of the county budget. There are approximately 30 officers in Burnet County, covering over one thousand square miles. Sheriff Boyd is in his second term and will be up for reelection.
The Chamber and the City of Bertram hosted a Community Mixer, offering the community an opportunity to meet City staff and ask any questions they might have. City employees and City officials were on hand to connect with residents of Bertram. This night was a great success, and we hope to do it again in the future.
The planning has started, and you are welcome to be a part of our Bertram Country Christmas Committee. Our next meeting will be Friday, September 8th at 4:30 pm. Meeting location is Mosaic Garden Treasures on Vaughan Street.
