City of Burnet Notice of Meeting

The City Council meeting agenda included a Special Report/Recognition on the Engineering and Public Works Quarterly Report. The Action Items covered several significant matters, including the appointment of a Commissioner to the Housing Authority, consideration of a resolution designating a Downtown District, and repudiation of an unrecorded special warranty deed from the Burnet Foundation Industrial Company. Other action items involved an ordinance amending the purchased power cost adjustment clause, discussion regarding the July 2025 flood response, and an ordinance amending the original budget for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2025. The meeting involved a public hearing and consideration of an ordinance to rezone property from Agriculture District "A" to Medium Commercial -- District "C-2" to allow for a convenience store with gasoline sales, despite previous denials on similar requests and opposition from residents concerning traffic, safety, and environmental impacts. The City Manager also noted that a special meeting would be needed soon to address the July 2025 flood response.
