County searches for suspect in shooting BY MOSES LEOS III A Hays County man is recovering after he was shot following a verbal altercation with another man at a Dripping Springs residence last Wednesday night. Authorities are now searching for Grosbin A. Sabillon, 30, who is suspected of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. According to a Hays County press release, authorities
received a 911 call around 4:23 p.m. for “suspicious circumstances” in the 28000 block of Ranch Road 12 in Dripping Springs. When deputies arrived, they found a 26-year-old man with a gunshot wound. The victim was transported to an Austin-area hospital with a nonlife threatening injury. During the course of their investigation, authorities discovered an argument had ensued between the victim and
suspect before the shooting occurred. The suspect, later identified as Sabillon, was not at the scene when they arrived. Sabillon is described as standing 5’7”, 160 pounds with black hair and brown eyes. Sabillon has medium skin tone and no visible tattoos, according to the release. He left in a 2006 Red Dodge 4-door truck with tinted windows. No license plate is available at this time. Sabil-
lon is considered armed and dangerous. A warrant for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, which is a second-degree felony, has been issued for Sabillon. Anyone with information regarding this case should contact the Hays County Sheriff’s Office at 512-393-7896 and speak with the Criminal Investigations Division or contact Hays County Crime Stoppers at 1-800-324-8477.
Authorities are searching for Grosbin A. Sabillon in connection with a nonfatal shooting last week.

Bathroom bill approved 21-10 BY LESLY DE LEON After a long debate Tuesday, Texas Senators approved Senate Bill 6, which would require transgender people to use public bathrooms of their sex at birth, by a vote of 21-10. The Senate must take up the bill again for its third reading before sending the bill to the House for its vote. The floor vote was taken in the Senate after a marathon hearing. Hundreds of individuals opposed the legislation. For many, such as Dripping Springs ISD parents and students, the bill’s impact is personal. Many Stripes, One Tiger, an organization supporting DSISD’s case-by-case approach to providing accommodations to transgender students, has opposed SB6 because its members say the bill is discriminatory. The organization was created when parents rallied to oppose Texas Values, a faithbased conservative lobbyist group that opposed DSISD’s accommodations for a third grade transgender student at Walnut Springs Elementary. The nine-year-old student’s request to use the girl’s restroom has been cited by legislators to justify SB6, said Andy Hutton, a creator of Many Stripes, One Tiger. “We don’t think that’s right,” Hutton said. “We don’t think a law that hurts nineyear-old child is good idea.” Organization members have contacted local legislators, including state Rep.

After more than 13 hours of testimony, mostly in opposition, the committee advanced the bill for Senate vote. “We tried to make clear to the committee members how we feel,” Hutton said. “We want this issue to stay in hands of the teachers and the
Negotiations continued after an executive session during Thursday’s Barton Springs Edwards Aquifer Conservation District (BSEACD) meeting on Dripping Springs’ request to discharge treated effluent into the Onion Creek Watershed. The BSEACD reviewed with its attorney the draft settlement prepared by the city of Austin in response to the city of Drippings Springs’ permit application to discharge treated wastewater into Onion Creek. While the district and other entities review these documents, it is generally thought that most of the entities are waiting until the Texas Legislature closes, due to the number of bills about water and water management working their way through committee hearings and onto the floor. Dripping Springs’ water district board of directors reviewed with their attorney activities related to the 85th Legislative session in executive session as well Thursday night. One bill, HB 2424 by Donna Howard, is of particular

Hutton said he felt like Campbell, a SB6 co-author, hasn’t been responsive to parents’ concerns. While Isaac has not officially taken a stance on SB6, he opposed DSISD’s decision at a press conference with Texas Values in November. “That was pretty disappointing to a lot of people,” Hutton said. “But I’m hopeful that he’ll listen to the stories of the parents who actually live in his district, not just an

Voting Error
Continued from pg. 1 vote wants their vote to be counted and their voice to be heard,” said Anderson. According to state law, because the election results were already canvassed by commissioners court, those results, without the 1,816 missing ballots, stand. Anderson explained what this means is that the numbers that were up, went up a little further; there was no overturn of an election other than the Anthem MUD. Anthem MUD is a municipal utility district west of Kyle. The Anthem MUD vote in the November election was set to create the district, elect a board of directors and then to levee the tax for the MUD. Anderson said that there were only two eligible voters in that election, and after the election results were made public reporting the vote “against,” both voters announced they had voted “for” in favor of the MUD’s bond. This led to an investigation in which Anderson discovered one Mobile Ballot Box (MBB), which is a device that communicates with voting booths and records all votes to calculate a final tally in an election, was not recorded in the election. There are more than 40 MBBs used during the elections throughout Hays County. “The missing MBB was back in our storage, a room

whole voting period, only the first two days of early voting at the Hays County Government Center. An election contest ultimately overturned the results in favor of the Anthem MUD. The May elections will be Anderson’s first election working alone as Elections Administrator for Hays County, and she has started implementing policies and procedures to make sure a problem like this is avoided in the future to ensure citizens that their vote does indeed matter. The first policy involves a log system that is put in place to list the locations of all the MBBs and their replacement equipment. Those items will be locked inside Anderson’s office. The elections office will also continuously back up the E-slates on replacement equipment.
“If we replaced equipment here at the government center, if we had backed up the actual voting machine that night, we would have seen the difference that night,” said Anderson. Anderson said she will also cross-train to help improve accountability. “I now have two people doing the programming and two people working on the equipment,” said Anderson. “Prior to this there was just one person doing those things. I’d like to see nobody singularly doing anything in this office. I think there should always be two sets of eyes, two minds and two signatures.” After the problem came forth about the missing votes, some citizens of Hays County who are in favor of paper ballots have voiced their opinions against electronic polling. However, Anderson said that the election office would have never known about this missing MBB if they didn’t have electronic equipment. She was able to go back months afterwards and figure out what happened; with paper they would have not been able to do this. “You’re going to have equipment failures at times,” said Anderson. “It’s about knowing how to track that equipment, keep it in the chain of custody and make sure it’s secure.”
happen is through engaging with people who are different than you and who are transgender,” Hutton said. DSISD parents never intended to become involved in a state-wide issue. But Hutton said he felt some state legislators used Walnut Springs Elementary
for political ends to justify what they wanted do. “I got involved in this because of a third grader at Walnut Springs who I thought was being unfairly singled out,” Hutton said. “This is a kid at my kids’ elementary school. We know her and we love her and she’s a fantastic kid.”

where those who do tally and store our equipment, and it was just not anywhere secured – just laying on a shelf in a box,” said Anderson. The only reported Anthem votes from the MBB recording was one vote against. There were no votes for, so the missing MBB contained those two votes for the anthem MUD. Anderson said this single vote most likely came from human error. Anderson’s motivation into starting the investigation came from not only concerns that she had heard throughout the county, but also because there were some unanswered questions about the way the reporting had come out after the election. Fortunately for voters, this MBB was changed out on the second day of early voting, so it didn’t affect the

St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church and School was designated the 2016 Permittee of the Year by the Barton Springs Edwards Aquifer Conservation District last week. As a groundwater user, the church/school was directly affected by the passage of Texas House Bill 3405 and the district’s annexation of the shared territory in
summer of 2015. This annexation placed into effect a groundwater management scheme as well as permitting requirement for nonexempt groundwater users.

entral Texas residents came out to donate and support local organizations making a positive impact and helping the community through the Amplify Austin fundraising event, which was held March 1-3. Amplify Austin was a success for many local organizations, including the Hays-Caldwell Women’s Center, Onion Creek Senior Center, Central Texas Tortoise Rescue and Hays County Food Bank. The Hays-Caldwell Women’s Center, which has participated for 5 years, raised more than $30,000 in donations. Established in 1978, the women’s center’s mission is to help victims of family violence, sexual assault, dating violence and child abuse. “We are very grateful to our supporters who every year surprise me and come on out,” said Melissa Rodriguez, director of development and community partnerships. Money raised through Amplify Austin is crucial to the women’s center work because it’s unrestricted funding, Rodriguez said. The women’s center may use the donations for needs not covered by state and federal funding, such as providing an interpreter for a client or helping a client move out and find a new residence.

A Texas House Bill sent to committee last week could impact the wine industry, starting September 1, 2017. House Bill 1514, filed Feb. 2, would require wineries looking for a Texas wine distinction to use 100 percent of the grapes grown on Texas farms and produce it entirely in the state to qualify. The current benchmark for consideration was 75 percent of the volume, said Terry Franks, chief of staff for Texas Representative Jason Isaac (R-Dripping Springs). “As the wine industries grows and becomes more sophisticated in Texas, we really need to do a lot more to protect and bring the wine industry into more of a recognized status so when you buy a Texas wine, you’re buying Texas grapes,” Franks said. Isaac and his staff used the wine industries in California, Oregon and Washington state as a model for the bill. All three states require more
than 75 percent of the volume to be produced in the state, Franks said. The bill was referred to the licensing and administrative procedures committee March 9, though Franks said the provision of the bill calling for 100 percent of the wine volume to be produced in-state will likely be unobtainable in the near future. “Obviously we know the way the bill is written would be very difficult, almost unobtainable in its current form, which is why it’s a proposal,” Franks said. “We’re working on some language with the industry to stair-step up and get close to that 100 percent over the next five or six years.” The bill, as currently constituted, would cause Texas wineries to decrease the import of California grapes, which are generally cheaper by the ton than Texas grapes. Franks said businesses aren’t prepared to make this adjustment on the accelerated calendar called for in the bill. For this reason, Franks said
implementing the law by Sept. 1 of this year is “unrealistic.” “That would just crush a lot of the wineries,” Franks said. “We’ve heard from a lot of the wineries and they’ve had some serious concern and heartburn over that. We don’t want to hurt the industry. We want to help the industry, so we are going to substitute in some language to help out with that.” Robert Fritz, a wine maker at Solaro Estate Winery in Dripping Springs, joined in opposition of the proposal. Fritz is a member of the Hill Country Wine Association, which includes 53 Texas wineries as members. Fritz said the association “overwhelmingly” voted in opposition of the bill. “The worry is that any legislation at all slows down the industry to the point where a number of wineries and vineyards could go out of business,” Fritz said. “That was the thought behind the vote.” The legislation would place an extra burden on the Texas agricultural
system, tasked with keeping up with the rising demand for grapes. If the bill passes, Fritz is unsure if Texas can sustain the wineries’ individual needs at the rate the industry is growing. “My personal opinion is that the industry should be left alone and have the freedom to grow,” Fritz said. “And at some point when it gets bigger, then maybe there should be some regulations. Right now as a whole, for the good of the industry, we should leave politics out of it.” In the meantime, legislators and local wineries will continue to move towards a working piece of law to benefit a wine industry that provides more than 12,000 full-time jobs, according to the Texas Wine and Grape Growers Association. “Folks out there say ‘we see where you’re going, but we need to have a longer discussion on this,’” Franks said. “We are happy to do that. This (bill) has brought this issue to the forefront and the discussion has begun in earnest.”

Tigers stomp Panthers in late surge BY QUIXEM RAMIREZ

The second half in the Feb. 7 matchup between the Dripping Springs Tigers and Medina Valley Panthers quickly turned into the soccer equivalent of a Harlem Globetrotters game. Dripping Springs played the part of the Globetrotters by imposing its will on the opposition in a lopsided 4-2 victory. Medina Valley
happened to be the hapless Washington Generals, unable to create significant resistance to test the Globetrotters. Dripping Springs dominated possession in the second half, attempting 16 shots, en route to the win. Three of its goals occurred after the halftime break, while Medina Valley could only muster three shot attempts and zero goals in the final 40 minutes.

Continued from pg. 1 interest to BSEACD, as it further defines the territory over which the BSEACD will have power. The bill would put more of Onion Creek under the direction of BSEACD, and with Dripping Springs requesting to discharge treated wastewater into the creek, residents down creek from Dripping have shown concern about the possibility that there could be problems in the
future. And, with Onion Creek being a feeder into Austin’s famous Barton Springs, the city of Austin leaders have also gotten involved with Drippings’ request. Dripping Springs’ permit asks for permission to discharge a volume not to exceed 995,000 per day to the Onion Creek watershed. The city put in its application to TCEQ in 2015. In 2016, TCEQ
issued a draft permit authorizing Dripping to discharge treated effluent into Walnut Springs, which feeds into Onion Creek as a result of the discharge. Environmentalists have expressed concern about the possibility of algae formation in Onion Creek. Developers and other landowners around Dripping Springs have countered that the city plans to mainly – almost
exclusively according to city officials – use its treated wastewater in surrounding developments for beneficial reuse. The city of Austin is pushing Dripping Springs to maximize its effluent reuse and the city of Dripping Springs has already set up contracts with developments within the city and in Driftwood to use the treated wastewater.

Amplify Austin Continued from pg. 3
ing in honor of Samantha Dean, who was murdered allegedly by VonTrey Clark, a former Austin Police officer, in 2015. Dean, who was the Kyle Police Department’s Victim Services Coordinator, worked with Hays-Caldwell Women’s Center staff through their child abuse program, sexual assault program and family violence program, Rodriguez said. “To see people donating in her honor really touched me,” Rodriguez said. “It shows she’s not being forgotten. It’s doing what I know she would want, which is people using that horrible thing that happened to give to something good.” The Onion Creek Senior Center in Buda, a non-profit founded in 1984 to serve the needs of senior citizens, received $7500 through Amplify
“We are excited because this year we did raise the most funds and we’re excited to see how next year goes.” – Mallory Raschke, communications coordinator for the Hays County Food Bank
Austin and an additional $2,000 from an anonymous donor. The donations will cover the senior center’s many expenses, including bills and its mortgage, said Ann Moreland, vice chairperson of the board of directors. Moreland was chairperson of the center’s Amplify Austin committee and teaches exercise classes at the center. “We did well,” Moreland said. “There were a lot of people that donated that I didn’t know. We got some good donations.”
The Central Texas Tortoise Rescue received $2,300 in donations, said founder Krista McDermid. McDermid, who studied the habits of aquatic turtles for her Master’s thesis and operates the rescue out of her home, said she founded the tortoise rescue after friends and colleagues asked her to foster turtles and tortoises. “It became clear to me that there was a real need for more tortoise and box turtle rescue operations,” McDermid said. “Central Texas
Tortoise Rescue’s mission is to adequately house, care for, rescue and rehabilitate land turtles who need a helping hand, and to place them into loving forever homes.” The Hays County Food Bank received nearly $2,500 in donations, said Mallory Raschke, communications coordinator. “It’s just to fund our everyday operating expenses so that we can keep providing services and programs for those that we serve,” Raschke said. Of the three times the food bank has participated in Amplify Austin, this year it received the most donations, Raschke said. “We are excited because this year we did raise the most funds and we’re excited to see how next year goes,” Rasche said.

Tiger Soccer
Continued from pg. 4 It was a far cry from the first half, when Medina Valley converted two of its three shots into goals. Medina Valley’s Cade Thayer opened the match with an attempt from more than 30 yards out, a hard line-drive that forced the Tigers’ goalkeeper to leap and fully extend his arms in order to stop the shot. His arms weren’t long enough though, and the ball clanged on the right pole, ricocheted and dribbled in for the goal. Dorian Downes added another goal from 10 yards out to extend the Panthers’ halftime lead to 2-1. Dripping Springs, meanwhile, attempted more shots than its district counterparts in the first half. All it had to show for the shot advantage was one goal from Alexis Aldama. “We were really, really unlucky in the first half,” said Dripping Springs coach Brian Ormonde. “That’s been the theme of this season unfortunately.” Dripping Springs’ luck changed in the second half. “I started the second half exactly how I started the first half,” he said. “I told them at halftime ‘just finish your chances.’ That’s what we weren’t doing in the first half. We had the same opportunities; they didn’t go in the back of the net.” The Tigers’ second half onslaught began and ended with Pedro Casanova. With his team trailing by one goal, Casanova took it on himself to settle the score. He received a pass on the right flank, beat his defender to the spot and made a play. Casanova’s shot landed directly in the goalkeepers’ mitts. This time

around the ball bounced in the goal, which was a fortuitous break for a team unaccustomed to luck this season. “We got better luck tonight,” Ormonde said. “The goals came instead of not coming.” And the goals didn’t stop. Dripping Springs’ Jose Galindo lofted a high-arcing shot that floated into the net for the go-ahead goal. Galindo’s shot proved to be the beginning of the end for Medina Valley. “They came alive,” Ormonde said. “I saw the change. The pressure was off because we were ahead and we can just go for more.
Casanova assisted on the final goal of the match – another one for good measure – after carving through the defense with the precision of an X-Acto knife. “One of my seniors, I was really proud of him, Pedro, he just took the ball himself and went down the side over there, cut in and put one in the back of the net,” Ormonde said. “A couple of individual goals like that were the difference maker.” Medina Valley, which lost both meetings to Dripping Springs this season, happened to catch an unlucky team at an unlucky time.
