Top issues during term (5)(Environment)
Proposed sale of Millwood Lake water rights to Texas via Heartland Water Partners
A water sale could bring revenue, but the city manager said expected water-rights exclusivity payments aren't guaranteed and may be needed just to balance the budget.
Millwood Lake water sale to Texas
Could bring $16-20 million a year to the city — over $1 billion over a 40-year contract — with the only city cost being attorney fees.
water utility policy
If the deal goes through, it could bring new revenue to the city—and potentially affect your water bill, for better or worse.
Proposed AI data center moratorium
Residents worry data centers could drive up water and energy bills, though no local cost figures exist yet.
water supply agreement
The city hasn’t put a price tag on it yet, but any pipeline deal could hit water bills and city budgets down the road.
