In November 2024, Hays County voters approved the 2024 Road Bond package. In June 2025, a Travis County district judge ruled that the road bond package was void, claiming noncompliance with a public notice requirement. The county is currently appealing this ruling while working to keep these projects moving forward.
To uphold the voter’s decision to move these projects forward, the commissioners court unanimously voted in a July commissioners court meeting to move forward with the issuance of Certificates of Obligation (CO).
The COs would fund planning and design for all projects originally included in the bond, with the exception of the SH 45 Extension project, which is not funded. Additionally, it would allow construction for eight of the 14 projects originally included in the bond.
