Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Kerrville public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Emergency Management and Flood Response Planning
The city may tap a federal 75/25 cost-share program for riverbank stabilization and voluntary buyouts of flood-prone riverfront homes — bought properties would never be built on again. Formal agreements come back to council later.
Animals Code Revisions for Feral Cats and Dangerous Dogs
New animal code rules cap cat colonies at 15, set feeding distances from businesses, and require property owner permission — though one resident said abandoned colonies still need a city response.
City Attorney Annual Performance Evaluation
The City Council will conduct its yearly review of the City Attorney's performance behind closed doors in executive session. This evaluation ensures legal services align with city standards and community needs.
Substance Use Recovery Support and Housing Services
The coalition is reviewing vital recovery support systems, including peer support coaches, outpatient services, and MOUD housing through Project Homes, to strengthen local addiction recovery resources.
