Starting pay is $16.82/hr, then $17.24 after the academy, $17.67 after field training, and $18.93 (minimum for non-probationary police officer pay grade) after probation.
If you have specific questions, feel free to throw them out here.

Im assuming the process is the same for currently POST certified officers as well. I just put in a app, hoping to move back home. I have a 4 year degree, current k9 handler and SWAT certified, so I am hoping that will help move me up a little bit. Any info on the process, benefits, IE take home car, training opportunities, FTO period would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, the process is the same for certified officers. Cars are personally assigned and you can take them home if you live in Williamson County. As you may know, we have a new (interim for now) chief, so things are subject to change. The last group of certified officers had a slightly accelerated training program, which normally consists of several weeks of in-house classes and training, 14 weeks of field training, and whatever academy is necessary (none, transition, or full). The training budget has historically provided officers with many opportunities for good training, both locally and across the country. A 4 year degree will prove useful and is almost mandatory for promotions. The city has a generous tuition reimbursement program if you wish to pick up a Master's someday as well.

Question...does anyone know if they offer pay incentives for Bachelors -and- Masters degrees? I think I heard there's an increase for Bachelors but wasn't clear about a Masters degree. I'll be finished with mine in February, so I was curious...
