ORIGINAL NEWS FLASH
The City of New Braunfels will host a pair of open house-style public input meetings to go over the preliminary designs for two projects approved by voters during the 2023 Bond Election. These come-and-go meetings will give residents a chance to view project schematics, review the overall layout and design components of the projects, and provide feedback on the plans before construction begins.
“These are meetings that will be held as the City prepares to begin work on the projects approved by voters in the 2023 bond election,” said Transportation and Capital Improvements Director Garry Ford. “Meetings like these are great opportunities for residents to learn more about each project, ask questions, and provide valuable feedback before construction begins on these projects.”

Wednesday, February 7, 2024 - 6pm to 8pm
