HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM HEATHER: In this issue, Reporter Sierra Martin takes a look at how New Braunfels Utilities plans to fund over 150 capital improvement projects while maintaining adequate reserves. The utility also needs to get fully sta ed to handle these projects. Next month is our Health Care Edition. Email nbfads@communityimpact.com for advertising inquiries. Heather Demere, GENERAL MANAGER

FROM ERIC: New Braunfels increasingly is a place where residents enjoy getting around on their golf carts or other similar small vehicles. City Council revised an ordinance that regulates such activity, and we provided an update on those requirements (See Pages 16- 17). Reporter Amira Van Leeuwen highlights The Chain Link Bicycle Shop as well as Roost, a restaurant in Freiheit Village that specializes in a variety of chicken salad and all-day breakfast (see Pages 20-21). Eric Weilbacher, EDITOR
