New Braunfels City Council is scheduled to consider a second and final reading of its data-center zoning ordinance on Nov. 16.
The posted materials identify the data-center ordinance as item 26-1266 and label it a second and final reading. That makes the ordinance the meeting's clearest scheduled decision, though a place on the agenda does not establish how council will act.

The New Braunfels City Council special meeting is scheduled for Monday, Nov. 16, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers, 550 Landa St., New Braunfels.

The official agenda and agenda packet give readers the numbered items to track as council moves through the meeting.
Zoning decision and 2027 planning
Ordinance 26-1266 concerns Chapter 144 data-center zoning and is scheduled for its second and final reading. Readers seeking the rule itself should inspect that numbered item in the official agenda packet; the label establishes a pending final reading, not an enacted ordinance. Council may give staff direction on a potential 2027 bond program under item 26-1331. A presentation and possible direction are steps in planning; the scheduled item does not itself authorize a bond program.
Council is also scheduled to hear an FY 2027 capital improvement plan update under item 26-1139. Read alongside the bond presentation, that update gives residents two places to look for the city's account of future projects. They are separate agenda items: the capital-plan update is a presentation, while the bond item expressly allows possible staff direction. Neither agenda description, on its own, settles which projects or financing terms council will ultimately adopt.
