Leander, Liberty Hill work to secure water supply amid drought
Wood’s eorts mimic Leander Conservation Program Manager Bill Teeter’s message. “We tell people conservation isn’t about sacrice; it’s about using what you need,” he said.
Amid one of the hottest summers recorded and extreme drought conditions, Wood is hand-watering his plants in the evening and using mulch to preserve cool, damp soil conditions to give his garden the best shot at survival.

Government
BY HANNAH NORTON
Texas lawmakers passed a sweeping plan to cut property taxes on the average home by over $1,200 per year. The July 13 passage of Senate Bills 2 and 3 closed out the second special legislative session of the year and brought an end to seven months of negotiations. $18B tax relief package passed
THE EQUATION
The $18 billion plan includes two bills and a constitutional amendment. For the tax cuts to show up on the 2023 tax bill, Texans must approve the constitutional amendment during the Nov. 7 general election. The constitutional amendment will appear on all ballots as Proposition 4. Gov. Greg Abbott signed the legislation July 22. SB 2 will become law if the constitutional amendment is approved, while SB 3 goes into e ect Jan. 1. Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said the bills would save the average homeowner $1,250-$1,450 on their 2023 tax bill. The average home in Texas is valued at $331,000.
A home’s value—the appraised value minus any exemptions—varies by taxing entity.

Nonhomestead appraisal cap
The tax relief package also limits how much certain properties can increase in value annually. • The value of property worth 5 million or less cannot increase by more than 20% year-over-year • The cap applies to all nonhomestead property , including second homes and commercial property • Approximately 13 million properties will qualify The cap goes into eect in 2024 and runs through 2026, at which point lawmakers can choose to extend, modify or stop the program.
Texas homeowners can apply for a $40,000 exemption from school property taxes on their primary home. Seniors and people with disabilities are eligible for an additional $10,000 exemption. Under SB 2, homeowners can receive a $100,000 exemption , with $110,000 for seniors and people with disabilities. Additionally, people whose homes are worth $100,000 or less will not pay any property taxes to their local school districts. This will largely impact homeowners in rural areas. Since school districts receive most of their revenue from property taxes, the state is expected to spend $5.3 billion to reimburse schools for the increased exemptions.

rates fall. However, overall school funding will not change. Democrats from both chambers of the Leg- islature unsuccessfully proposed amendments July 13 to send more money to schools and give teachers a one-time bonus. “Without question, the members in the Sen- ate and House want to give the teachers their pay raise,” Patrick said. “We will have time in the fall, I believe, to give them a permanent raise, and not just a one-time raise.” Lawmakers are expected to return to the Capitol for a third special session in Septem- ber or October. They will likely discuss school funding, teacher pay and how to provide stu- dents with the best educational opportunities.
Lawmakers set aside $12.7 billion to “com- press,” or reduce, school district maintenance and operations taxes, which make up the majority of a homeowner’s tax bill, by 10.7 cents for the 2023-24 school year. This is in addition to 10.98 cents of com- pression included in the state budget. • Savings will vary by school districts, but taxes are expected to decrease by 23.8% on average • For example, on a $300,000 home , trimming the school district tax rate by 10.7 cents would cut the average tax bill by $321 per year Schools will receive money from the state to ensure they do not lose revenue as local tax
Texas’ franchise tax is calculated based on businesses’ individual circumstances. • Businesses that make less than $2.47 million annually will no longer have to pay the tax or submit a “no tax due” form • Roughly 67,000 small and midsize businesses will be exempt from the tax • Collectively, qualifying businesses are expected to save around $300,000 per year

Council will also meet in closed session Sept. 7 to discuss next steps for hiring a new city manager, according to an Aug. 23 city news release. What they’re saying In a phone call with Community Impact , Beverlin said he was drawn to Nacogdoches because of the opportunity to manage a historic Texas city. Having joined the city of Leander in 2019, he also cited the city’s accomplishments over the last four years, including its growth in population, navigating the COVID-19 pandemic and strength- ening its water infrastructure.
“The timing is good and we have the city teed
up on every front. [Leander is] posed for success.” RICK BEVERLIN, OUTGOING LEANDER CITY MANAGER
“I appreciate all your support and that of the community and our local and regional partners,” Beverlin wrote in a letter to City Council. “It is a bittersweet moment and wish all of you the best and the city much success, prosperity and peace.” Looking ahead Beverlin’s last day in Leander will be Nov. 1.

Local districts exceed state average on STAAR Leander ISD and Liberty Hill ISD students were approaching grade level at a higher rate than state averages across the board in the spring 2023 administration of the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness, according to results released Aug. 16. Approaching grade level is equivalent to passing and indicates a student is likely to do well in the next grade level. The overview The most notable disparities between local and state scores were in seventh and eighth grade math. LISD and LHISD students scored 30 percentage points or more better than the state on these tests. Additionally, average passing rates were the same or better year over year in both districts except for LISD’s seventh grade math score, which went down one percentage point.
LHISD adopts budget with 3% funding gap Due to Liberty Hill ISD receiving less state funding than anticipated and experiencing increased costs due to growth and ination, the board of trustees adopted a budget with a 3% general fund decit. “This is the largest decit that LHISD has ever prepared and proposed,” LHISD Chief Financial Ocer Rosanna Guerrero said, referring to the last 15 years. The breakdown The budget projects general fund revenue at $84.9 million and expenses at $87.4 million, resulting in a $2.5 million decit. Also of note The board adopted a $0.6692 tax rate per $100 valuation for scal year 2023-24, which is a $0.175 reduction from last year.

LISD sets capacities for upcoming elementary schools Leander ISD trustees voted to continue design- ing future elementary schools to accommodate 800 students instead of opting to expand the capacity to 1,000 students at an Aug. 10 meeting. The approach discussed building new elementary schools to accommodate 1,000 students instead of 800, which is the standard, LISD Chief Communications Ocer Crestina Hardie said.
10-year construction plan • Elementary School No. 30: opening in 2024-25 to relieve Bagdad and Plain elementary schools • ES No. 31: opening in 2025-26 to relieve Tarvin Elementary School • ES No. 32: opening in 2028-29 to relieve Mason Elementary School • ES No. 33: opening in 2029-30 to relieve ES No. 31, Pleasant Hill and Akin elementary schools
District sta recommended the board continue with the 800-student capacity design based on zoning projections, nancial impact and feed- back from elementary school principals and the planning committee.

Brushy Creek trail work continues
A closer look
In Cedar Park, work is ongoing on the Brushy Creek North Fork Trail, which starts near West Parmer Lane and will extend to the existing trail near Brushy Creek Road. Round Rock’s Heritage Trail East and Heritage Trail West projects also tie into the regional trail system. Sara Bustilloz, Round Rock’s communi- cations and marketing director, said the western trail resumed construction earlier in 2023 and the eastern portion is not yet in the works. Hutto’s portion of the trail remains undeveloped due to a lack of funding, Director of Communica- tions Allison Strupeck said. Williamson County has proposed in its ve-year capital plan to create a trail link to Hutto that would run under SH 130 to Adam Orgain Park.

Russell Fishbeck, Williamson County parks and recreation senior director, explained that the county is responsible for trail segments that lie outside of city limits, called the extraterritorial jurisdiction. Each city is responsible for the funding and construction of segments within its boundaries.
The vision for a regional trail project connecting Williamson County communities was born nearly 25 years ago. Now, the cities of Cedar Park, Round Rock and Hutto are working to fund and construct trails and parks to bring this vision to life. The ambitious Brushy Creek Regional Trail aims to connect these three cities through a shared- use trail for walkers, joggers and bikers. The project would ultimately link residential communities to commercial spaces with parks
Several Williamson County segments are completed or planned for, and portions in Cedar Park and Round Rock are seeing movement. Hutto’s timeline remains unknown.

For Williamson County, Fishbeck said a consultant is designing the 1.5-mile gap at Hairy Man Road between Cedar Park and Round Rock. The county is proposing a $59 million bond in November for more trail projects— including this gap. “It’s an ongoing vision of the county and these communities,” Fishbeck said. “Due to the complexities of how it happens, when funding becomes available and who’s willing to participate, it’s hard to put a timeline on it.”

have moving forward is a lack of production capacity with our current wells,” he said. “But we are also looking at resolving those with several future projects.” Teeter said Leander has remained under restrictions because its water infrastructure has not kept up with population growth; however, the BCRUA’s Deep Water Intake Phase 2 project—which will build a tunnel to extract water from the bottom of Lake Travis—aims to address that. “We have a major project to help us get water out of Lake Travis in a better way that will make it more available even when the lake [is] lower,” Teeter said.
Leander residents receive water from the Brushy Creek Regional Utility Authority, a partnership among Leander, Cedar Park and Round Rock that distributes water from Lake Travis. Liberty Hill receives 25% of its water capacity from three active wells and 75% from an interlocal agreement with Leander to purchase treated water. David Thomison, director of public works in Liberty Hill, said one well is being expanded to produce twice the amount of water and the city is looking to identify additional sites for water treatment facilities. “One of the issues that we
and Stillhouse Hollow Lake, are similarly low. “Given how long our [rainfall] decits go back and how signicant they are, we’ll continue to see drought impacts through the end of this year, almost guaranteed,” National Weather Service meteorologist Keith White said. “The good news about the El Niño, though, is that it will tilt our odds toward wetter conditions by the time we get into the winter time. So we can hopefully start to make up some of those decits in December, January and February of next winter.”
Central Texas was hit with a double threat this summer: record-breaking high heat and little rainfall. The region has seen temperatures over 100 degrees nearly every day since July 8, causing increased evaporation of local water reservoirs, dried-out soil and increased wildre risk. Lakes Travis and Buchanan collectively dipped to 44% capacity in August, the lowest they’ve been since 2013, according to the Lower Colorado River Authority. Other regional water sources, including the Edwards Aquifer, Lake Georgetown

Local drought contingency plans
Leander has been under watering restrictions since 2015, and the city expects to stay under them for the foreseeable future, Teeter said. “The message that we’re trying to get across to people is: Don’t worry so much about having that super green lawn,” Teeter said. This summer, Leander has been unable to meet the terms of an agreement to provide Georgetown water. Georgetown ocials citied this when they enacted Stage 3 restrictions for the western part of its water service area. On Aug. 17, Leander leaders acted to allow Georgetown to receive half the amount of contracted water.

Regional water solutions To secure future water supplies,
Individual solutions Kristen Parkhurst, marketing director for lawn care services company Emerald Lawns, o¡ered tips on how residents can preserve their lawns and conserve water.
What’s next?
Williamson County leaders are seeking to reserve water from the Carrizo-Wilcox Aquifer about 50 miles east of the Austin area. The plan would require millions of dollars, a permit from the groundwater conservation district and easements.
Central Texas will need to see weeks of heavy rainfall, specically near Fredericksburg to rell water basins, to end drought conditions, said Aaron Abel, water services manager for the Brazos River Authority. “That’s what we’re hoping for, but in the meantime, we’ve got to do what we can to extend the last of the water supply in these reservoirs, and that’s by enacting our drought contingency plans and trying to reduce water use,” Abel said.
Plant native grasses, such as Bermuda and Zoysia.
Aerate soil to loosen compact soil, which restricts root growth. Consider xeriscaping, a landscaping process that requires little irrigation by utilizing succulents, mulch and other drought-tolerant plants. Utilize top dressing, which adds nutrients back into soil after it's been depleted by the sun.
"[The Carrizo-Wilcox Aquifer] is the future water for Williamson County if I was betting." MICHAEL THANE, ROUND ROCK UTILITIES DIRECTOR
