Bulverde City Council set 2027 goals for its city manager that include staff turnover below 8%, a balanced budget, a risk and insurance review, and quarterly capital-project updates.
The action came under item 3B at the council’s Oct. 27 meeting, where the posted agenda called for a review of the manager’s goals and objectives.

Bulverde residents now have specific targets against which to assess the city's staffing, reserves and reporting on capital projects. The budget goal calls for keeping 25% to 30% of operating expenses in the general fund. The capital-project goal calls for quarterly updates to the council with an implementation plan and deliverable dates.
These are goals for 2027, not results the city has already achieved. The turnover figure is a ceiling for the target, while the reserve range describes a target tied to operating expenses. The council also called for employee satisfaction and staff development alongside the turnover measure.
The next useful check is whether the city’s quarterly project reports and later budget and staffing records show progress toward those targets. Residents can inspect the Oct. 27 agenda’s item 3B to see the scope placed before the council and the official meeting recording for the goal-setting action.
