Public.Hearing regarding the City of Cibolo proposed annexation for that portion of Dietz Road right-of-way
located within its extraterritorial jurisdiction and covering 5.18 acres of land situated in Guadalupe County,
Texas.
Mayor Sutton opened the Public Hearing asked if any citizen wanted to speak on this proposed annexation.
No citizen's spoke on the issue. Mayor Sutton asked Council if they had any comments. Councilwoman
Davis asks the advantages and disadvantages of the annexation. Mayor Sutton explained some of the benefits
of the annexation would be that Dietz Road is adjacent to Cibolo's City Limits. At the present time that
portion of the road gets very little police enforcement from the County and Cibolo Police Department will be
able to enforce the speed limits, etc. Mayor Sutton also explained that for several years now Cibolo has
offered to take over that part of Dietz Road once the county completed the re-surfacing. The biggest
disadvantage to the annexation would be that Cibolo would become responsible for the maintenance and up
keep of the road. The recent improvements should last for approximately 10 years.No other comments Mayor
Sutton closed the Public Hearing.
