(New Braunfels, TX – June 3, 2022) New Braunfels Utilities (NBU) regularly conducts long-term water resources planning to ensure adequate water supply for generations to come. Yet, with a rapidly growing community, a question that often comes to the forefront for NBU customers and the community is, “are we going to run out of water?”

On Tuesday, June 14, 2022, NBU Chief Executive Officer Ian Taylor will host a Community Meeting at the New Braunfels Civic and Convention Center, 375 S. Castell Avenue, New Braunfels, Texas. All community members are invited and encouraged to attend and learn about NBU’s resilient water supply. The Community Meeting will begin at 6:00 p.m.

In addition, before the Community Meeting, from 5:00-6:00 p.m., NBU experts will be on hand to discuss topics and share information including:

• Water and Electric Rebates
• Bill Management Tools
• Capital Improvement Projects
• Backflow Prevention
• Avoiding Costly Repairs caused by fats, oils, and grease
• Career Opportunities
• The Headwaters at the Comal

As a trusted community partner, NBU’s mission is to enhance the quality of our community by providing innovative essential services, and we hope community residents are able to take advantage of the opportunity to attend and to learn more about NBU services.
