Last Saturday, Judge Madison conducted a community service activity with four defendants who owed money to Lakeway. They cleaned up trash on both sides of Lakeway Blvd and the median from 620 to the West end - GREAT idea! Great job!
The Texas Municipal League published the results of their 2010 Municipal Tax and Debt Survey. Of 657 respondents, Lakeway ranks 547 in tax rate, 58 in total taxable property value and number 178 in total debt - this is GOOD!
In an effort to promote water conservation, Lakeway MUD has joined with WCID #17 and LCRA to distribute low-flow toilets. the MUD's will be giving away free toilets on a firs-come first-serve basis to qualified customers at the City Hall parking lot on Saturday, April 24 from 9:00 AM till noon.
Steve Jones gave a brief talk to Lake Travis Home Builders Assoc. Tuesday and by a show of hands they indicated an increase in home building in our area - more good news!
And yet another GOOD report! Moody's Investor Service has upgraded our bond rating from A1 to AA3. this is good news because it will reduce the interest rates on any future bond issues - it appears our fiscal management practices are recognized and rewarded!
On the lighter side, if you haven't been to Hamilton Greenbelt lately, check out the beautiful Bluebonnet fields there!
More soon! Thanks for the support!
