Security Report: Travis County Deputy Ginnetti stated nothing new. Neighborhood has been quiet.
City Administrator, Aaron Johnson reported currently working on waterline project. What size line for future needs. In contact with Engineer for the School District wants to partake in the expenses for the water line. Want to sign an agreement. For the School District to do their own water system would be a lot more expensive. Probably will not be finished before the year 2025.
