The City Council Workshop Meeting of Kerrville on September 22, 2026, focused extensively on storm water management and recovery efforts following severe flooding events. Key procurement-related discussions included the establishment of a storm water drainage utility, with ordinance amendments proposed to create a utility service area, define charges based on impervious surface area, and outline exemptions for certain properties. The council reviewed the administrative framework for billing, appeals, and equitable charge assessments, emphasizing that funds collected would be exclusively used for drainage-related operations and improvements. Additionally, updates were provided on FEMA reimbursements and ongoing infrastructure repair projects, including bridge and utility line restorations, with an emphasis on the need for meticulous documentation to secure federal funding.

Public notices and hearings were scheduled to advance the storm water utility ordinance, signaling forthcoming procurement activities such as RFPs for engineering services related to infrastructure repairs.
