Garden Ridge's Water Commission is scheduled to discuss NewGen Strategies and Solutions' FY27–FY31 water rate study results and make a recommendation on Nov. 17.
The proposed recommendation is the meeting's clearest potential step toward future water-rate choices for customers; the posted agenda describes a discussion and recommendation, not a new charge. The agenda's rate-study entry identifies the consultant and the fiscal-year span.

Two citizen-comment periods are on the agenda.
The rate-study recommendation
The Nov. 17 agenda calls for a recommendation on the rate study results, not an adopted customer rate. The commission's next scheduled step on the rate study is discussion and a recommendation at the Nov. 17 meeting. The meeting record will show what members actually recommended, if anything.
The rate-study item covers fiscal years 2027 through 2031 and names NewGen Strategies and Solutions as the presenter. The packet's agenda framing is a useful starting point for questions about the study's assumptions, proposed schedule and effect on customers. Those questions can be tested against the presentation and any recommendation that enters the later meeting record; this preview does not treat an anticipated presentation as an approved rate.
