Lakeway City Council certifies results of special election held on May 3 2025

The Lakeway City Council convened for a special meeting on May 13, 2025, at 1:01 PM, located at 1102 Lomans Crossing Road. Mayor Kilgore opened the meeting, confirming a quorum with three council members present, as only two were required for the purpose of canvassing the election results.

The primary agenda item was the discussion and potential action regarding Resolution Number 2025051301, which involved canvassing the results of the special election held on May 3, 2025. City Secretary provided a detailed report on the election, noting that seven propositions were on the ballot, including Proposition A, which sought to reauthorize the local sales and use tax for municipal street maintenance, and several amendments to the city charter.

The official canvass, mandated by Title 6, Chapter 67 of the Texas Elections Code, ensures that all votes, including those from early voting, Election Day, mail-in ballots, and provisional ballots, are accounted for. The City received the official canvass from Travis County the previous day, and the canvassing period was confirmed to be from May 6 to May 2025.

The results of the propositions were as follows:
- Proposition A: 2,769 votes for, 600 against (Passed)
- Proposition B: 2,079 votes for, 1,275 against (Passed)
- Proposition C: 2,152 votes for, 1,126 against (Passed)
- Proposition D: 1,659 votes for, 1,614 against (Passed)
- Proposition E: 2,048 votes for, 1,150 against (Passed)
- Proposition F: 1,391 votes for, 1,873 against (Failed)
- Proposition G: 1,686 votes for, 1,527 against (Passed)

Propositions A, B, C, D, E, and G were approved, leading to the incorporation of the respective amendments into the Lakeway City Charter, with no anticipated fiscal impact from these changes.

Following the report, there were no questions from the council members, and no citizens participated in the discussion. A motion was made to accept the canvassing results as reported, which was seconded and unanimously approved by the council.

With no further business to address, the meeting concluded promptly.
