Summary
The City Council will consider disannexing approximately 130 acres of land adjacent to Lake Austin, encompassing 143 discontinuous properties in Council Districts 8 and 10. This action is in response to a petition from property owners under Texas Senate Bill 1844, which allows for disannexation if properties are adjacent to a navigable waterway and not connected to the city's water and wastewater systems. The disannexation will remove these properties from the City's full purpose jurisdiction but they will remain in the City's extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). This item has no fiscal impact.
Residents in the disannexed 130-acre area will transition from City services like police and solid waste collection to those provided by Travis County and will no longer pay City property taxes.
