Nacogdoches County is facing a funding loss tied to its communications system, according to Sheriff Jason Bridges.
Bridges said the shortfall stems from a series of Federal Communications Commission rulings that began in 2024 and were revised in 2025. The changes affect how the county pays for and maintains its radio operations.
Reliable radio communication is central to how deputies and first responders coordinate, so any funding gap is worth watching. County officials are expected to weigh options as the situation develops.
