AEenda Item Backus Statement
Kerr County's reapplication to the Texas Water Development Board for grant
funding is in its final stages of preparation. Our plan is to deliver the application on or
about December 1.
The previous Resolution authorizing a Kerr County grant application identified as
funding sources two TWDB programs that are no longer funded. Our original application
was not approved as the limited funding in these programs ran out.
This Resolution summarizes our activity to date, and authorizes the new
application for consideration under the TWDB Regional Water Supply and Wastewater
Facilities Planning Program.
