Council hears update on impact fee fund and pending TWDB project budgets

City of Dripping Springs · August 12, 2026

Summary

Staff told council the impact-fee fund has collected more revenue year-to-date than projected and that one prior debt payment was paid off; final annual debt-service numbers for a 2026 TWDB loan remain pending staff and banker breakdowns.

City staff briefed council Aug. 11 on the impact-fee fund and how the fund is used to pay debt service on capital projects. "Essentially, what this is used for is the payment, of our debt service," staff said, and noted the 2026 payment for one debt had been paid off, which affects FY27 projections.

Staff reported impact-fee receipts year-to-date were higher than anticipated and that they are monitoring building-department activity to update monthly cash flow. Staff also told council they are still awaiting a final breakdown from the Water Development Board and bankers on the annual cost schedule for loans acquired in 2026 and will plug that into the impact-fee and utility fund projections once received.

Council asked staff to provide the outstanding dates and debt-service schedules for all TWDB items so the council can see when each loan's payments end; staff agreed to include that information in forthcoming question-and-answer materials.
