History
The following water source options were evaluated:
• Develop a stand alone project wholly owned and
operated by CVLGC
• Develop a hybrid project, where portions of the
system are owned by CVLGC and portions of
other systems are used
• Purchase treated wholesale water from another
entity
A comparison was performed of existing water
supplies to future population demands of CVLGC

History
5 potential groundwater sources were considered:
■ SSLGC Guadalupe Project-SSLGC was developing up to 6,500 acre feet of groundwater from the Carrizo-Wilcox
Aquifer in southeastern Guadalupe County and was willing to sell their interest in the Guadalupe County project
■ Carrizo Aquifer -There was potential to develop a well field in Wilson County from the Carrizo Aquifer. Option 1
was for CVLGC to develop a stand alone project and Option 2 was for CVLGC to develop a joint -use project with
SSLGC
■ Wilcox Aquifer - While the Wilcox Aquifer is not as prolific as the Carrizo Aquifer, it was highly underutilized in the
study area due to water quality concerns
■ TWA Carrizo Project -Texas Water Alliance (TWA) which is now Alliance Regional Water Authority (ARWA), was
permitted to construct a transmission pipeline through the study area with excess water available
■ RWA Brackish Wilcox Water - Regional Water was a proposed regional system in the Wilcox Aquifer in Wilson
county with plans to construct a pipeline through the study area.

History Summary
The SSLGC Guadalupe Project was initially offered for sale to CVLGC, as the
project was further evaluated, both member entities of SSLGC did not agree to
sell their interest in the project.
Therefore a second option to purchase water from the project was assessed by
CVLGC. After the assessment, the Guadalupe Project was the best scoring
project, however the Guadalupe Project lacked any ownership of the assets. The
City of Cibolo and the City of Schertz both desired to have ownership in the
water project.
Due to lack of ownership in the Guadalupe project, the next best scoring project
was selected, Carrizo Option 2 which was the development of a joint -use Carrizo
CVLGC/SSLGC project.

secured
• Water leases secured with 89 landowners
involving 158 tracts of land
• Water lease payments total $274,953

Strategy
• The City of Cibolo is currently projected to need additional
water in the 2030 decade to satisfy TCEQ requirements
• The City of Schertz is currently projected to need
additional water towards the end of the 2030 decade
• CVLGC will continue to evaluate the CVLGC Carrizo Project
in terms of future water needs/project timing and assess
other cost-effective alternatives to meet demand
• CVLGC will work towards executing a contract with SSLGC
to treat and transport water and the option agreements
for the project's well sites will be secured when project
timing is determined
Amber Beard,
Executive Director
Project Summary
• Each city has contributed $100,000 to the project for FY2019-20
• Seeking agreement that maintaining the current path on this
project until needed is the direction council's want to take
• Next steps:
■ Periodically evaluate the economics of this project vs. other
projects
■ Minimize costs while preserving the investment
• Look for potential customers which may accelerate
timing/reduce idle investment
Amber Beard,
Executive Director
