Comal County approves amendment preserving county raw-water access with GBRA
Summary
The Commissioners Court approved a first amendment to the raw water service contract with the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority to preserve the county's water rights for future construction use despite low lake levels currently limiting usage.
County staff asked the court to approve a first amendment to the raw-water service contract with the Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority (GBRA) to preserve the county's ability to take water from the lake for future construction projects. Staff said the county is not using the rights now because of low lake levels but does not want to forfeit the rights and recommended approval of the amendment and authorization for the county judge to sign.
Commissioners approved the amendment by motion; staff framed the action as a forward-looking preservation of county water rights rather than immediate use. No financial terms were discussed on the record at the meeting.
