Discussion: Briggs and Noble updated the Board on the County Bond Package. The County
Commissioner's Court met in August 2006 in order to approve a Bond Package that will go
to the Williamson County voters in November 2006. Mr. Noble, along with other
Williamson County representatives, met throughout the County, during the summer, to
review projects and take comments. The final results of those meeting were to recommend
to the Commissioners a project list for voters to consider. The Commissioners modified
several of the projects, adding some and deleting others. Georgetown was successful in
securing a recommendation for $76,622,000.00 in total County funding of roadways in out
Transportation Master Plan. These dollars combined with the budgeted dollars from GTEC,
would give Georgetown the potential to have over $105,000,000.00 for Georgetown
roadways.
Action: None

--Ed Polasek
