But in a recent interview, Rob Kelly, the Kerr County judge and its most senior elected official, said that local residents had been resistant to new spending. “Taxpayers won’t pay for it,” he said, adding that he didn’t know if people might reconsider now.

This was brought up after a flood originally, wouldn’t they have reconsidered then?

Flood warning systems are socialism though!

Weren’t the warning systems gutted?
