The county currently has a $70,000 contract with a private company. It used to be paid for with COVID funding, that no longer exists.

"This is the first year that the entire county is bearing that cost for Precinct 3," Hidalgo County Precinct 3 Chief of Staff Jorge Arcaute said.

If passed, only Precinct 3 residents would pay for the services.
