Austin City Council · City Council Work Session · 21 Jul 2026 meeting

And I just – in an area that's so close to the river – and, again, this is –

not my area, we want to get the water off of the land and into the river as soon as, is that the goal of the flood control in that area?

I know that in other areas we want to kind of manage its flow out more as it moves down the creek, but what would be the goal of the regional water detention there in the Dog's Head area?

But I know that Austin Water has heavily encouraged the use of reclaimed water.

And my understanding is that we do have a reclaimed water facility.

access at or near the Dog's Head is a plan to use reclaimed water for the, especially I think for commercial and manufacturing industrial purposes there in the Dog's Head.

I just wanted to ask about that.

Do we know if the Amazon manufacturing facility has committed to use the reclaimed water?

And just for my own and the public's knowledge, reclaimed water, does that save water?

Does it save energy?

Is it a little bit of both?

Could you just kind of explain that process, what it means to use reclaimed water?

Great.

And then that reclaimed water will largely be used for irrigation and for really toilet flushing activities?

My understanding is that in commercial and industrial sites, that could be 80%, 90% of the water usage of that site.

Well, that's great.

And lastly, I just wanted to mention the reduction in the TERS from that.

I know the initial proposal was at 80%.

I had some concerns around that.

I think that that 75% for the initial period and then moving to 66% for the later period, that makes, I think that tiered structure makes a world of sense.
