Transf ers i n m a t e The number of Hays County inmates who are transferred to other counties’ jails uctuates over time, but that has steadily increased since January. With that increase in transfers comes increased cost to the county. State inmates are those considered “paper ready” to transfer to state prisons but have not been transferred to state prison facilities. The state does not pay counties to house those inmates. SOURCES: HAYS COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COURT, HAYS COUNTY CORRECTIONS COMMUNITY IMPACT NEWSPAPER If the weekly cost of transferring inmates continues, by the end of this year it could cost the county up to $5 . 8 mi l l i on D i d y o u k n o w ?

Hays County grapples with high rate of inmate transfers Inmate population already surpasses county jail's new expansion capacity

of those beds can be used, as Texas code requires a standard of leaving about 10% open to make sure high-risk and low-risk inmates are not housed in the same cell, said Chief Deputy Mike Davenport, head of corrections for Hays County. That means once all 603 beds are ready to go, 543 beds will be the maximum amount usable. Discussion of the jail began as far back as 2010 and plans began to get underway in 2014, culminating in the 2016 bond that county voters passed, Davenport said. That bond allocated $57.5 million to construct the jail. “We’re not done with the renovation part. I think we got some of the last key pieces in. Part of the renovation was to

redo all the showers. Andwe nally got those last week. So hopefully there’s a light at the end of the tunnel,” Daven- port said April 21. At the beginning of discussions for the jail, Hays County’s population was 157,107, according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau. The county’s population is now estimated at more than 255,000 based on the latest esti- mates from the bureau. Most recent gures from the week of April 18-24 from the county show that on average there were 212 male inmates and 33 female inmates out- sourced to other county jails through- out the state on any given day. That CONTINUED ON 24

Originally slated for completion in spring 2021, supply chain backlogs and other issues delayed completion of the Hays County Jail expansion to summer 2022. Despite an increase in capacity from 332 to 603 beds after comple- tion, the county will likely need to continue transfers to other county jails across the state as rapid popula- tion growth in the county—as well as population increases along the I-35 corridor—exceeded expectations of the number of inmates the jail would need to accommodate. The jail’s current capacity of 410 beds actually means no more than 368

We have a new test where we are comparing the performance of these two technologies side by side.” -EH Does HESOLAR install batteries? “Yes, HESOLAR is a certified installer of the Tesla Powerwall. With the Tesla Powerwall, a solar pv system can continue to operate in the event of a power outage. The Powerwalls can be added now or retrofitted to a system in the future without replacing existing equipment. This year we added Tesla Powerwalls to the test array and will continue to make suggestions based on our findings.” -DH What makes HESOLAR different from their competitors? “We have many answers to that question. The most common feedback we get is that our customers value working directly with Derrick and I from start to finish. Customers also have our direct contact after installation. On the sales side, we don’t knock on doors and we don’t push the sell, we just educate. Behind the scenes is where we really differentiate ourselves. Derrick and I have been Master Electricians for over 10 years, and we’re NABCEP Certi- fied Solar Installation Professionals. We lead our team through the design, installation, and warranty of your system. We don’t subcontract our labor and we use the highest quality materials available. Below is a table we use to display the differences between HESOLAR and our competitors.” -EH

Every design. Every installation. By The Hoffman Brothers.

Q & A with the Hoffman Brothers

What exactly does HESOLAR Do? “The service we provide is a specialized form of electrical contracting. Derrick and I are second generation Master Electricians that grew up in the electrical industry. We’ve spent the last 10 years building on our skill-sets as Master Electricians specializing in solar power, energy storage, and electric vehicle charging. ” -Eric Hoffman Why are customers adding solar? “Saving money, back-up power capabilities, lowering their carbon footprint, energy independence... Ultimately, solar power allows customers to invest in their own energy needs. The cost of solar installation will be offset by savings gained on their electric bills. Additionally, the current Federal Tax Credit of 26% has motivated a lot of our customers to act now before the credit goes away.” - Derrick Hoffman How does the Tax Credit work? “The credit is factored on the entire system cost. It is currently at 26% and will ramp down to 22% next year. Homeowners should consult with a Tax Professional regarding applicability.” -DH Are all solar panels the same? “Not at all. Solar panels come in different colors, sizes, and quality. That’s why we created the HESOLAR Test Array. We are actively monitoring the top solar panels in the solar industry and specify our material based on the results. We are also testing leading inverter technologies.” -DH

Any advice for homeowners ready to go solar? “Be careful with sales companies knocking on doors and advertising bogus claims on social media like Facebook. Their goal is to get in your house and convince you to make a rush decision. Our advice is to politely close the door. Don’t rush this purchase, take your time and do your research. Craftsmen don’t find you, you find us.” -EH

The HESOLAR Test Array video is available at hesolarllc.com

What are inverters? “The inverter converts the solar panel’s DC voltage to an AC voltage. Solar consumers will have a choice between Microinverters and DC-Optimized String Inverters. Microinverters convert the DC to AC under the solar panel. A DC-Optimized string inverter manipulates the DC voltage under the solar panel and then sends it to an inverter near the electrical service.

Mitchell added that this will be the biggest bond in the city’s history to keep up with the growth as the population has nearly doubled in the past six years. “Every project should be bigger than the project before because we’re not the little town we used to be,” Mitchell said. “We absolutely need to build roads. Not just any roads, well-engineered roads.” The city’s previous road bond in 2013 was $36 million for work on ve roads. The 2022 bond could be about

POLLO CAMPERO JOINING Z’TEJAS, TORCHY’S TACOS AT DRY RIVER DISTRICT The Kyle Planning and Zoning Commission April 12 approved a conditional use permit for a new build of a Pollo Campero restaurant within the Dry River District at 19000 I-35, Kyle. With the commission approval, the permit does not need City Council approval. The new restaurant will be approximately 2,500 square feet and will feature a drive thru and an outdoor patio area. Pollo Campero joins the likes of Starbucks, Z’Tejas, Torchy’s Tacos and Costco in new builds within the 65-acre mixed use commercial development. The entirety of the lot the new build will be on is just under an acre at .9288 acres and will feature 31 parking spaces with almost 20% of the lot to be utilized for landscaping, according to planning and zoning agenda documents. Pollo Campero is a national chain with stores in more than 15 states.

Horton, Inc., is set to develop a new community called Prairie Lakes on 995 acres; the acreage is approximately split 590 and 405 acres between the Kyle and Niederwald Extraterritorial Jurisdiction, respectively. The Kyle City Council approved a consent and development agreement on Feb. 1 as well as the creation of a Municipal Utility District and land development began in March in Niederwald. A board manages the MUD and can provide alternative ways for the developer to nance certain infrastructure needs including water, drainage and road construction. Bonds can be issued and taxes and other fees can be collected from properties within the MUD to pay o its debt obligations. The developer plans to deliver 2,200 single-family homes in Prairie Lakes with some parcels of land dedicated to multi-family residential and commercial uses. New home construction is expected to begin in March 2023 in Niederwald and May 2023 in Kyle. The developer will also pay a $1 million construction fee to build and be integrated into the city’s sprawling trail

The Buda Planning and Zoning Commission approved the preliminary plat of land—that sits along the Hays and Travis County line—to be used for the dealership in late 2021. Since the development is located within the Suneld development, water and wastewater services will be provided by the Suneld municipal utility district. Julie Herrera, Toyota of Cedar Park Dealer Principal and Managing Partner, said that Buda was chosen as the location of the new dealership as Hays County continues to grow and added that the Subaru brand does well in the Austin-metro market.

TEACHING PATHWAYS CREATING To combat the staffing shortages in San Marcos CISD, the district has programs to bring in new teachers to the district.

SanMarcos CISD tackles staffing shortages Following the winter break in January, San Mar- cos CISD saw the most unfilled teacher absences to delay students getting to school or home by more than 15, 20 or 30 minutes.” Hall credits the strength of the department to yearly raises and stipends that he thinks have helped with retention. As previously reported by Community Impact BY ZARA FLORES

since the onset of the pandemic as a result of spiking COVID-19 cases, highlighting the staffing shortages plaguing districts across the country. With the impending return to school, a post was made on the SMCISD Facebook page reminding families of the mask mandate that was in place. Despite the mandate, SMCISD had 877 unfilled absences in January, only about 30 fewer than in Hays CISD, even though SMCISD has fewer than half the amount of HCISD students. Oftentimes, when there are unfilled absences and a campus or district cannot find a temporary replace- ment for an absent teacher, students can be redistrib- uted to other classes, according to district policy. In the first week back, there were about 50 COVID-19 cases among students and staff and a 44% fill rate of absences; in the second week back, there were nearly 250 COVID-19 cases and a fill rate of 54%, according to the SMCISD COVID-19 dashboard and unfilled absence data. From the beginning of the school year to March, there were a total of 9,045 absences. January had the most at 1,741, followed by February at 1,427. The fill rate continued to fluctuate between 40% and 50% throughout January, and by March, fill rates were up to anywhere from 75% to 99%. Despite the nationwide shortage of staff, SMCISD does shine past other districts in the transportation department, according to Transportation Director Ryan Hall. Bus driver shortages have affected Comal, Dripping Springs and Lake Travis ISDs, to name a few, in recent months. “It’s been unusual compared to some of our surrounding districts who have struggled with recruitment and being able to retain bus drivers,” Hall said. “Even with challenges, we’ve never had

Newspaper , in July 2021, SMCISD passed a one-time $250 stipend to staff who received the COVID-19 vaccine and another $100 stipend in December for those who received a booster. However, there is still a downward trend of inter- est in the education field at the primary, secondary and college levels, according to Glenna Billingsley, an associate professor at Texas State University. She said people are no longer interested in becoming teachers, and she has seen fewer students major in education. Once the pandemic set in and classes went virtual, she recalled retirements from professors and staff. Combating shortages To get ahead of staffing shortages and produce high-quality educators, In February SMCISD started to offer a daily rate of $105 to those in the Texas State University College of Education teacher residency program through a grant from the University-School Partnerships for the Renewal of Educator Preparation (US PREP) national center. While the residency program is not new, this is the first year the students have been paid for their work, SMCISD Executive Director of Communications Andrew Fernandez said. “We felt it was just the right time to really engage the partnership with Texas State and make sure that great teachers were coming to San Marcos CISD and staying in San Marcos CISD,” Fernandez said. “Being able to go into the residency program, … get a year’s experience and build those relationships, it’s a unique opportunity, and we don’t want to lose any of those residency students.”

At the State of the City address April 7 in San Mar- cos, Superintendent Michael Cardona said many of the students in the residency program have already been hired for the upcoming school year. In addition to the residency program partnership that feeds into the district, there is also a student organization called Texas Association of Future Educators, which allows students to explore and gain insight on the teaching profession. However, it is more observation based, whereas the residency program is a fully hands-on experi- ence, Fernandez said. The main push for the stipend and programs, Fernandez said, is in response to the teacher short- age. It is a proactive approach to ensure Texas State University students can build relationships with the SMCISD community and find a home in the district.

HAYS CISD The board of trustees approved a cost-of-living adjustment April 25 for all employees at a rate of 7% for the upcoming 2022-23 school year. The adjustment is calculated based on the midpoint of each pay grade, according to agenda documents. The district is working to solve equity issues among sta. “All of this would have to be presented, hopefully, in the next work session for the board so that then we could adopt something at the end of May. That would be very optimis- tic,” Chief Human Resources Ocer Fernando Medina said at the meeting. Several workers from the Hays CISD Transportation Department spoke during citizen comments with concerns over the hours and compensation. Melissa Torres-Whitmer, vice president of educational support professionals with the Texas State Teachers Associ- ation, spoke rst and asked for protection from retaliation as many members of the transportation department signed up to speak about their issues and concerns. The 7% adjustment approved April 25 does not reect where the district wants to be, Medina said.
