Investing in Tomorrow: County Priorities for a Growing Region

Join us for a timely and insightful panel discussion featuring county judges and commissioners from Central Texas to explore the current landscape and future of county level capital projects. As population growth and development accelerate across our region, county governments are at the front lines balancing critical infrastructure needs, public services, and long-term planning. Our panelists will discuss the opportunities and challenges in delivering on capital projects, the impact of growth on budgeting and resources, and what county residents and industry partners can expect in the coming years.

MODERATOR

Mike Kamerlander, President / CEO | Hays Caldwell Economic Development Partnership

SPEAKERS

Judge Gregory Klaus | Bastrop County
