City Council Regular Meeting

Meeting Date:

09/06/2022

BACKGROUND

The Schertz-Seguin Local Government Corporation (SSLGC) was created as a wholesale water supply system for the cities of Schertz and Seguin. The Carrizo Aquifer is utilized for this purpose to benefit both cities. SSLGC was formed in December 1998 and is governed by a board which consists of five directors and two ex-officios appointed by the city councils of Schertz and Seguin.

SSLGC began actual production in September 2002 and has continued to grow to serve the Cities of Schertz and Seguin as their primary water source. SSLGC maintains a strong wholesale water customer base including contracts with the Cities of Selma, Universal City, as well as Springs Hill Water Supply Corporation and the San Antonio Water System.

SSLGC combined the Management Services Agreement (formerly two separate agreements between each city and SSLGC) into one document effective through September 30, 2022.

It is the desire of SSLGC to have the Management Services Agreement between SSLGC, the City of Schertz, and the City of Seguin approved by the City of Schertz City Council. On August 18, 2022, the Schertz/Seguin Local Government Board of Directors approved to extend the Management Services Agreement between the SSGLC, the City of Seguin, and the City of Schertz. The only suggested changes are to the term of the agreement with the new term being October 1, 2022 through September 30, 2024.

GOAL

To approve the Management Services Agreement.
