According to information provided by the Hays County court administrator the county would incur a cost of $10,000 in fiscal year 2005 for set up costs because the Hays County fiscal year begins on October 1. In fiscal year 2006 the cost to the county would rise to $145,000 annually, thereafter, the cost to the county is estimated to be $126,000 annually.
Costs to Hays County do not include offsetting revenue. In the future, it is assumed that improved caseload management brought about by the creation of a new judicial district could result in higher revenues.
