Georgetown City Council sets election for water territory sale
During the February 10 Georgetown City Council meeting, council members approved a vote for a special election on May 2 for the sale of portions of Georgetown’s water service territory, called the Certificate of Convenience and Necessity.
This map details the areas that were up for sale. All the areas except for areas 1, Killeen, and 4, Jarrell, will be put up for sale.
Georgetown City Council has called a special election on May 2 to approve a sale of part of the city’s water territory to National Utility Infrastructure for $60 million.
If the sale is approved by Georgetown voters, customers in the territory that is sold near Jarrell and Killeen will still be provided water by the city until NUI has the infrastructure and means to take over.
