WAG’s 2023 gala deemed the ‘best yet’
WAG’s 2023 gala deemed the ‘best yet’
The Wimberley Adoption Group and Rescue had plenty of things to celebrate at their 2023 gala. Not only did their enthusiasts come out in strong support of their mission to rescue and find homes for dispossessed dogs and puppies, but they also celebrated their 2,000th adoption. The Palmer family was the lucky recipient of “Corndog,” who had the distinction of being the milestone adoption. 10/26/2023 12:00 AM

Stop, Look, and Listen Before You Vote...but VOTE I would like to expand on what I wrote here last week about the two types of people who run for office, the “politicians” and the “public servants”. These are my observations about our current council meetings: First, one member speaks at great length, campaigning for her latest ideas about what the council needs to spend our tax dollars on. Just because someone is very busy and vocal does not mean that she speaks for the majority of residents. After a few thoughtful questions or objections from other council members, their input is ignored and she, along with the mayor and a few of his yes men, go right ahead and do whatever they wish. I see that committees work hard to advise the council, and their advice is often ignored as well. This controlling group is a majority on the council now, but they do not represent most of us. Do we want a council that does what they want or a council who listens to what we want? 10/26/2023 12:00 AM

Did you know that retired teachers, aides, bus drivers, cafeteria workers, school maintenance personnel and administrators have not gotten a cost of living increase for almost 20 years? Many of you are not aware that most retired teachers are not eligible to receive Social Security, and instead, a TRS pension is the primary source of income. The recent Social Security cost of living raises that helped many, do not include retired school personnel. 10/26/2023 12:00 AM

To my neighbors in Woodcreek: It is election time for our city, and I want to encourage my friends and neighbors to vote Hambrick, Bonniwell, and LeBrun. I am making this endorsement because I believe they will protect our City from the negative effects of short-term rentals in our residential neighborhoods. The Planning & Zoning Commission has given the current Council a solution that has been tested in other cities. Yet, six months later this Council has failed to act. I fear their decision will not be favorable to my neighbors and I. If you review recent agenda packets, you will see Council has adjourned to closeddoor executive session several times to discuss the issue of STR’s. Why? They owe us an open discussion and the opportunity to have input. Why is this Council not allowing citizens to participate in such a crucial decision? 10/26/2023 12:00 AM
