Schertz and Cibolo councils are scheduled to discuss the future of Cibolo Valley Local Government Corporation water assets on Oct. 22, including a possible sale or lease framework.
The joint session moves from the corporation's original purpose and each city's water needs to possible transaction terms and a timetable for reviewing offers. Those are subjects for discussion in the posted agenda, not completed decisions. The full meeting agenda shows how the five topics fit together.
The questions before both councils
Item 1 calls for a review of why the Cibolo Valley Local Government Corporation was incorporated. That starting point matters because the councils are weighing future uses of assets held through a shared corporation. The discussion then turns to the water each city has and expects to need, before asking what each wants the corporation to accomplish.
Item 2 calls for an overview of the two cities' water portfolios and projected future water needs. The item page identifies the comparison as a separate discussion, giving residents a way to distinguish present supplies from forecasts. The supporting material includes a Cibolo service-area map, a Schertz supply-and-demand presentation and a water-provider overview; their projections should be read as planning material, not a settled allocation of water rights.
Cibolo's water summary lists current supply at 3,800 acre-feet per year and usage of about 2,550 acre-feet per year. Those figures are the city's stated current baseline; they do not by themselves resolve how much water it may need later or what each city should receive from CVLGC. Residents comparing the cities' positions can use the Cibolo water summary to see the basis for that part of the discussion.
