Gas Line Explosion Legal Action
A Floresville councilwoman says the city is preparing legal action after a gas line explosion, so this could end up in court. The fight is over infrastructure safety, and it could shape how utilities are overseen—and how your tax dollars are spent.
Police Officer Termination
Floresville has officially severed ties with a former police officer who was fired after the infamous feces-sandwich incident. It’s a cleanup move meant to close out an embarrassing police department scandal, but it’s a reminder of how messy the case got.
