Schertz City Council Meeting - June 16, 2026

The Schertz City Council held a regular meeting on June 16, 2026, which included a detailed presentation of the city's second quarter financial report for fiscal year 2025-2026 by Finance Director James Walters. Key procurement-related discussions focused on the city's revenue streams, including sales taxes, property taxes, permits, and franchise fees, with particular attention to the anticipated decrease in sales tax revenue from a major business by the end of the third quarter. The council also reviewed the city's investment strategy, balancing liquidity and returns through various investment pools and certificates of deposit. Additionally, Assistant City Manager Sarah Gonzales presented the results of a residential trash service survey following the award of a five-year solid waste contract to Frontier Waste Solutions starting July 2025. The survey highlighted resident satisfaction levels, service issues such as missed pickups, and willingness to pay for enhanced services like twice-weekly garbage collection. The council discussed ongoing contract management, including monthly meetings with the waste provider and complaint tracking via the TrackEasy system. No new contract awards or RFPs were announced, but the discussions reflected active oversight of existing procurement contracts and budget considerations related to service levels and revenue fluctuations.
