Nine Hays County officials took their oaths of office in a ceremony Jan. 2 at the Commissioners Court chambers in San Marcos.
Making his first official appearance following major back surgery in the fall, Hays County Judge Bert Cobb swore in the commissioners, constables and other officials who won office in the Nov. 6 general election.
"I'm really proud of this lady," Cobb said before administering the oath to Precinct 1 Commissioner Debbie Gonzales Ingalsbe.
Ingalsbe is the Commissioners Court's longest-serving member and is Hays County's first woman commissioner.
