Agenda — 1 item

1. Pursuant to Section 551.045 of the Texas Gove​rnment Code: The following item is added to the May 5, 2026 Regular City Council Meeting agenda as an emergency item due to an urgent public necessity.The emergency nature of this item is based on newly discovered information that was not known at the time of the original agenda posting. Specifically, City staff has determined that a municipal water well previously believed to be experiencing a pump-related issue has sustained a failure requiring the well to be plugged and taken out of service, resulting in a significant reduction in available water production capacity.<br><br>This development represents a material change in conditions from those considered at the time of the original posting and the May 1, 2026 emergency meeting. The loss of this well places additional strain on the City’s water distribution system, creating potential risks to system pressure, fire flow capacity, and overall water supply reliability, thereby constituting an imminent threat to public health and safety. <br><br>Immediate consideration by the City Council is required in order to receive an updated briefing and to take action on funding mechanisms, including rate adjustments and financing authorization, necessary to respond to the loss of water production capacity and to protect public health and safety.
